Kapitel 53: [MY SENSEI IS JEALOUS] - I

It's been two days since my date with Himawari, and I still haven't heard a single thing from her, even though she sometimes comes near me, and when she does, she starts to stare at me for a few seconds and then leaves. Does she get embarrassed when she sees me?

Hmm... Well, it might be true because of the 'kiss' I gave her on her forehead and told her that our date had come to an 'end'... Upon seeing and hearing this all, she said okay in a low voice and then ran inside her house like a cat... Well, well.

It is the reaction that I had in my mind when I did all this, so it went well I guess.

"Hmm..."

I hummed while gazing out the window of my apartment. Because of today's weather... Yes, the weather should have been a sunny one but... It's a rainy day, but still, I didn't get any notification from the school that it's a school holiday though. Well, I guess there will be no holiday, huh?

Well, whatever. Let's get ready for school.

...

"Mahiru Shiina...?"

When I left the building and walked some distance enough to reach the nearest park, I saw a familiar figure sitting on the bench. What is she doing here...?

Some of her hair is on her forehead; she has an expression that could be said to be sad as she continues to stare down at the ground while sitting on one of the swings, the park has to offer.

Well, well. Now, I know the reason for my headache... Tch.

"Shiina-san?"

When I walked and walked, finally stood near the spot where I could call out to her, I said this. And when she heard her name, she raised her head and turned her face to see me...

She has no expression on her face, she is just staring at me with her dead eyes. She continued to do so for some seconds, until and unless she formed a small smile on her face which she usually shows when she doesn't want to continue the conversation... Hmm, what the hell happened to her?

As far as I know, till yesterday evening, there was nothing happened which would make her show this type of face today. Hmm...

"..."

"Good Morning, Shiina-san..."

"*sigh* Morning..."

Well, well.

"So, what are you doing here, Shiina-san?"

When a minute passed and we remained silent until now, I decided to break the silence and ask this. There are a few reasons I can think of, but again they are not the ones that would be the case to show this much sadness on her face... Hmm...

"..."

She again didn't reply to my question, *sigh*.

"Ok, don't tell me... Here take this umbrella with you or you will catch a cold..."

"...hy?"

"Hmm...?"

She said something in a very low voice, maybe she was muttering to herself but since I have high senses of hearing and all other senses, so I heard somewhat about what she said.

"why?"

"Because you are one of my precious friends, Shiina-san..."

[MAHURU SHIINA: +10 AFFECTION POINTS]

[HER IMAGE OF YOU CHANGED FROM [SCHOOLMATES!] TO [PRECIOUS ???????]]

"..."

She again didn't reply to me, but she stopped staring at my face, turned her face to the other side, and started to look in that direction. Good grief.

Well, I did put the umbrella near her and then I left for the bus... But yeah, I just hope that she will use that umbrella because if she forgets it there, then it might get lost or something like that then...

I don't know what would happen. Because of the mere fact that this umbrella was given to me by Kazuki and she is... *sigh* I should have bought a new umbrella for regular use...

When I entered the bus, the first one to notice me was none other than her, but she quickly averted her gaze. Then I walked and stood near her bench, and then --

"Oh... Kaneki-kun, what are you doing here?"

As she said this, she slowly lifted her bag and it seemed she wanted me to sit beside her but her expression said otherwise -- She was staring intensely at me, and her one eyebrow was slightly raised.

"Hmm? What do you, *sneeze* sorry, mean, Horikita-san?"

"How --"

"*sneeze* sorry"

I already sneezed a few times from the moment I gave my umbrella to the angel. And here, while talking to this girl, I sneezed two times... Well, well.

She tried her best to act like a tsundere by showing some opposition to me sitting beside her, as her title has this word but her actions say otherwise... As she was saying some typical words a tsundere would say, she also put the book in her bag and is now looking out the window.

On the other hand, I am sitting at the next seat of her, beside her, and trying my best not to --

"*sneeze* Sorry..."

Well, I think I should wear a mask to not give anyone else my cold, especially my heroines...

[^ ^]

*deep sigh*

It's getting worse... It's getting worse... As more time passed, my cold along with the headache, because of the angel-san I guess...

The cold I got due to the rain is inevitable but the headache... *sigh*

Hey system, can you --

[SORRY...]

"Tch..."

When I unconsciously clicked my tongue, I felt some stares at me... And these are from my heroines. Good grief.

The ice queen(s) are staring at me with expressionless faces. Well, Horikita-san did provide me with a 'mask' because I am her friend... And when I asked whether she would give this mask to anyone else, she just said...

"Why?"

I still don't know how her brain works. There is a slight possibility that how she behaves now is because of some 'dark' past she had to face which made her like this... Or there is nothing like that, she is just being honest. Well, well.

Shikimori Miyako, [CUTE-DANGEROUS GIRL], is showing her worry about me as she asked me many times about my health in these three classes until now... But she is not being her usual self because she somehow knows that I had an umbrella when I left the building and she also knows that I gave it to a girl... So, she is jealous also.

Komi Shouko, [QUIET GIRL], is the most normal heroine I have in the list of heroines of my so-called harem. She also worried about me all this time as she occasionally turned her head and asked me by writing on the paper... Because... She still doesn't dare to say something from her mouth.

Now to the last but not the least heroine of mine, who is also in the same class as me, Tobiichi Origami. She... I don't know why, but she doesn't even say a single word to me until now. Is she planning something --

"*sneeze*"

"*sigh* Kaneki, go to the infirmary... Or if you don't feel fine then you are allowed to take a leave for today..."

"..."

I didn't say anything, just stood up from my seat and nodded a bit to show that I agreed with her and was going to the infirmary...

[THIRD PERSON POV]

When Ren leaves the class for the infirmary, the girls or heroines, most of whom are unlocked, and even the heroines who are still locked, are worrying about him even if it is a little bit or very considerably.

Some of them even thought of going with him but then they thought that he might think that they were annoying or... So, they removed the idea of doing so. But... They will be checking on him in the next period, during the lunch break because everyone can clearly see that his health is not fine due to which he can't be coming back to class for the next, at least, two classes...

Chhabashira Sae is no exception... Even though she has not had that much interaction with him until now, she still feels some kind of attraction toward him... That's why...

Even though she said that he should go to the infirmary... Still, in the deepest part of her heart, she wanted to --

"N-no, n-no, w-what am I t-thinking...?"

She muttered these words while she shook her head slightly, and no one saw her doing it... which made her breathe to let out a sigh of relief. She then cleared her throat to gain the attraction of the girls who were worrying about someone and then she started teaching the class...
