Capítulo 702: Ren’s Relationship with Asumi?
"You're really causing trouble for me."
Asumi sighed deeply and said helplessly.
"Difficult questions? Is this question difficult?"
If that's the issue, Ren could understand why he couldn't think of suitable methods after thinking about it all night.
"It's not difficult for me, but it's difficult to teach you." Asumi said confidently.
Asking her to teach a clueless person how to make friends with others was punishment for her.
"Why would you say that?"
Ren looked genuinely confused.
"That's the difficult part."
Precisely because he lacked self-awareness about himself, it made teaching difficult.
"However, even so, I will still teach you as much as possible."
"Thank you."
Although Ren didn't quite understand what Asumi meant by those words earlier, he could still understand this sentence.
"Sit down and talk for a while."
Setting aside the idea of making breakfast for the time being, Asumi sat at the dining table.
"Um."
Ren sat across from her.
After arranging the conversation for a while, Asumi asked, "Before teaching, may I ask you some questions?"
"Sure."
"Meaning, you're seeking my advice because you want to make friends with someone, right?" Asumi asked tentatively.
Ren suddenly asked this question; it must be for a purpose and not just idle curiosity.
"Yes." Ren nodded.
"Is that person male or female?" Asumi inquired.
"Female."
"I suddenly don't want to teach you. What's going on?"
Even before asking this question, she had already guessed the answer would be like this, but after hearing him say it himself, she still felt very unhappy.
"I have no idea."
Ren shook his head.
He only answered a few of her questions, and it's clear that his change of mind had nothing to do with her.
"...Forget it, let me give you the lesson."
Suppressing the unpleasant emotions in her heart and the idea of deliberately teaching bad methods, Asumi continued the yet-to-start lesson.
"Um."
"How long have you known that girl?" She continued to ask.
"About four months."
They both knew each other shortly after school started, and now four months had passed.
"What's your relationship like?"
"It's okay, she often helps me out."
Thanks to Hayasaka Ai, the gift-making process went smoothly.
Asumi couldn't help but complain, "In this case, aren't you still considered friends?"
"Not counted. The main reason is I feel like we're not friends." Ren revealed his true thoughts.
His definition of friends was determined by his subjective feelings.
"That's why you want to be friends with her?"
Asumi concluded.
"Um."
Ren didn't want to be friends with Hayasaka because he wanted to be friends proactively, but he sincerely wanted to be friends with her.
It's just that this time he wanted to be more proactive.
"At this point, generally, saying 'I want to be friends with you' is enough." Asumi gave a very simple proposal.
"Is it enough to just say one sentence?"
Ren never thought that actively making friends with someone else would be that easy.
"This method only applies to a girl who has known you for a long time and has often helped you. It doesn't apply to others." Asumi added a premise.
"I remember."
Ren wrote down these words very seriously.
"It's really comforting."
Asumi stretched and sighed.
She initially thought this was a troublesome issue that would take one or two hours to explain its success, but it ended up being resolved satisfactorily in less than five minutes.
"Um."
The gap between humans is indeed very wide. After thinking of a solution that hadn't occurred to her all night, Asumi completed it very easily in less than five minutes.
She suddenly remembered something and asked casually, "By the way, Kouhai-kun, should you and I be considered friends?"
"Not counted." Ren answered honestly.
"This... Huh?! Not counted???"
Asumi was stunned before she realized what his answer meant.
Her mood became complicated again.
"So, what kind of relationship do we have?"
Ren said without hesitation, "The relationship between senpai and kouhai."
"Right, so you've been treating me as your senpai from start to finish?"
Asumi looked into his eyes and asked this question.
Ren remained silent for a moment and slowly explained, "...I treat you as a friend, but Senpai, you always ask me to call you Senpai."
"Are you determining the relationship based on titles?" Asumi complained.
Indeed, she asked him to call her senpai, but she didn't let their relationship remain just at the level of senior and junior.
"No. I thought Senpai disliked me treating you as a friend, so that's why I kept calling you Senpai."
It took Ren a long time to say this.
"How could there be such a thing..."
Before she finished speaking, Asumi remembered something that happened in the past.
That was when she, Fumino, and Ichika changed their nicknames together for a long time, at the final stage, Ren witnessed it.
Then, her answer was, "Don't expect you to change your nickname with me. Just call me Senpai. I will be your senior for life."
"..."
This is completely my fault!
At that time, he clearly wanted to be friends with her, but he accepted this answer.
No wonder he said she hated him for treating her as a friend.
Asumi could only say that she regretted it!
"Kouhai-kun, actually I don't mind you treating me as a friend." Asumi explained hastily, trying to clear up this misunderstanding, "No, it should be said that I really want to be friends with you.."
Looking into her eyes, Ren asked gently, "Senpai, are you willing to be friends with me?"
