Ran Into First-Year Ichika Again!

Still, Ichinose felt that what she was doing was utterly shameless.

"..." Kushida.

Kushida the little angel had been secretly watching Ichinose's reaction all along.

While her social skills were inferior to Ichinose's, she could surpass her when it came to targeted attacks.

So she quickly realized that Ichinose seemed to be starting to feel guilty.

But didn't that make Kikyo Kushida seem awfully calculating? She actually had to resort to behavior like some bitch.

Seriously, it was all Hachiman's fault. If it weren't for him, she would never have become like this.

He had filled out the marriage registration form with her from the start, so that should have been the end of it. He shouldn't have gone and signed one with Ichinose too.

But that also meant she hadn't become the only one in his heart.

How annoying!

As the two praised each other like that, Kushida suddenly looked in a certain direction.

"Come to think of it," Kushida said. "Hachiman has quite a lot of options, doesn't he? There doesn't seem to be much point in the two of us fighting each other."

"Huh?" Only then did Ichinose notice where Kushida was looking. Following her gaze, she found Hachiman together with Suzune Horikita and Masumi Kamuro from Class A.

The three of them seemed to be preparing to head back to the Shopping Street.

"..." Ichinose.

That was true.

Hachiman was very popular.

There was no denying that.

But.

Since things were already like this, she had held back her tears yesterday and decided that she needed to pull herself together.

But since Hachiman was now accepting anyone who came to him... then perhaps she could still go see him tomorrow.

She could say that she had failed the exam and needed comfort.

Ichinose thought to herself.
