Chapter 124: Frame

Feeling disheartened by my rejection, I knew I needed some time  to gather my thoughts. I decided the best course of action was to meet with Ayumi. I sent her a text message, suggesting we meet at a nearby 7-11 store. 

This way, we could have some privacy and avoid any unnecessary attention on campus. I didn't want rumors or misunderstandings to tarnish her name further.

I was proud of my car, and part of me wanted to show it off to her. However, I knew that having her seen entering it on campus could lead to trouble and unnecessary gossip. I didn't want her to face any insults or judgment from others.

It was important for me to protect her feelings, not just for her sake but also for the sake of others. If anyone dared to hurt her , I was ready to take revenge on her behalf.
