Capítulo 36: Hmph~!
Ishigami loves her, Chika thought.
"What are you doing, Senpai?"
As Chika thought so, she couldn't help but pursue her lips as she watched Ishigami's helpless expression. This guy might pretend that he didn't have an interest in her, but she could tell what he felt toward her, especially when she thought about his previous conversation with Shirogane.
As for how she could make such a conclusion except for the exchanges they shared before she was about to enter the student council, she happened to meet Kaguya, and they happened to stumble upon Shirogane and Ishigami, who talked about the person Ishigami liked.
Unfortunately, before Ishigami was able to say it, he found them, so they couldn't hear the end of their conversation.
Still, once again, Chika could tell well who the person Ishigami had fallen with.
"Kaichou, what were you talking about before?"
Chika knew well that Ishigami's lips were as tight as the vault of the Bank of Japan, and it was impossible to get anything from him, so naturally, she changed her strategy and asked Shirogane, hoping something would come out from Shirogane's lips.
"No, we were just talking about studying, right, Ishigami?"
Shirogane wasn't an idiot, and he knew well that if Chika knew Ishigami had fallen to someone, this silly girl would tease his junior!
While frankly, Shirogane wasn't sure how Ishigami could escape a few days ago from Chika's claws, the fact that he owed a lot of things to Ishigami also didn't change as Ishigami helped him to go on a date with Kaguya and helped him with his clothes, so he definitely wouldn't let Chika to tease Ishigami!
"Yes." Ishigami also nodded obediently.
Still, watching the play between Ishigami and Shirogane, Chika pouted, thinking that the two were too sly!
At the same time, she looked at Ishigami, thinking that this guy was a tsundere!
Couldn't you just be honest with your feelings?
If so, then she might not mind giving him a chance to chase her!
Still, unlike Chika and Shirogane, who were a bit childish, Kaguya felt that she was an adult, so she couldn't help but glance at Ishigami's flat plants. It was quite flat, but when she observed closely, she could see quite a large bulge on the side, which made her face hot.
Kaguya wanted to take a peek again, but soon, she felt her face scorching when she saw a hand right in front of his pants and moved as if telling her to look away.
'I've found out!'
Kaguya didn't dare to look at that place again, or rather, she didn't even dare to face Ishigami!
'Now, he will think of me as a slut!'
She cried inwardly, thinking that she had done a stupid thing.
Still, the mystery of biology was a curious thing since she didn't expect something to expand into a humongous thing. This also made her unable to help but turn her gaze subconsciously at Shirogane's flat pants before she looked away.
'What am I thinking?!'
While she wanted to forget about everything, it was hard!
The thought of yesterday kept replaying in her head, and she... just... couldn't stop her mind from thinking of doing an act that might hurt the one she loved.
'No, I have to stop.'
Ishigami had reminded her, and she was also prepared to give her everything; the two of them wished for happiness for that person, and they had to work hard for it instead of hurting him.
"...."
Ishigami felt quite helpless, but it was good that Kaguya had stared at Shirogane's pants instead of his pants. He knew what had happened yesterday was impossible to forget, but even so, he hoped she would work hard to forget everything since this was what he did.
In the beginning, he had never thought of Kaguya, and he only thought of asking her for help to erase his stigma. While he also helped her set up a date with Shirogane, suddenly, their feelings started to change, and her feelings toward him became something else.
Still, this wasn't good, and he knew that he had to stop since no matter what he or Kaguya had to fall for, they couldn't fall for each other.
At the same time, while this might be strange, he couldn't help but think about the legend of King Arthur, the legendary British king whose wife was taken by his most loyal knight, Lancelot.
King Arthur trusted Lancelot so much, yet in the end, Lancelot fell in love with Guinevere, King Arthur's wife, hurting his king and even causing a catalyst of many manmade disasters in that kingdom.
Due to this story, Ishigami knew that while the feeling of being with Kaguya was nice, he knew that when everything was exposed, only regret would linger between them.
Love is nice and all, but if that love causes pain that they care about, it is better to stop it, especially when his feeling toward Kaguya is far less than Shirogane's feeling toward Kaguya.
Moreover, was this feeling worth fighting for when the price was something they couldn't pay?
More importantly, to be honest, he really wasn't ready to face Kaguya's family, especially when she also had a little spy by her side.
At the same time, instead of him, he knew that Shirogane would treat Kaguya the best.
Still, whether Ishigami or Kaguya, even without saying anything, they knew what to do, and they just did their own jobs without communicating with each other as if everything that had happened between them was just an illusion.
Ishigami was fine with it as this was his decision, but Kaguya couldn't help but cast a glance at him from time to time as she bit her lower lip before she looked at Shirogane as she made up her mind.
Meanwhile, Chika didn't realize anything and only thought that Ishigami was really tsundere!
On LINE, the two often chatted with each other.
Well, it was mostly her who made the initiative, but it couldn't be helped since he was a good partner to talk to. It might have been only a few days since they started, but she thought that her world had really changed when there was someone who could accompany her silliness and joke calmly and maturely.
Yet, even if she thought that Ishigami had become quite mature, it didn't change the fact that he was still a virgin!
'Hmph! Acting all shy, as expected of a virgin!'
Without being dared to confront her to talk about their dating plans on Sunday face-to-face, if this wasn't a virgin act, then what was it?
The weekend was about to start tomorrow, yet he never intended to approach her first and acted as if nothing had happened between them.
Still, Chika didn't lose her calm and even held on because she knew that the first one to make the first move would be the loser.
However, while she thought so, she often glanced at him from time to time and even pouted. Even when Ishigami worked on his laptop seriously, she even tried to tease him by using the tip of her hair to tickle him.
"..." Ishigami.
"Fujiwara, Ishigami is working seriously, don't tease him!"
Shirogane, who saw Chika, kept teasing Ishigami, who was working and couldn't help but remind her.
As the treasurer of the student council, Ishigami had to work seriously, yet this silly girl kept teasing him, which made Shirogane feel helpless.
"I-I am not teasing him! I-I am working too!"
Chika looked at Shirogane resentfully, then pouted before looking away.
"..." Shirogane.
Was his eyes blind?
Still, he sighed in relief when he saw Chika didn't tease Ishigami anymore.
However, Kaguya, who knew everything, could only shake her head and thought that this might be the best.
So, at this moment, it was a rare moment that the four of them were working hard on their own jobs until it was almost time for the lunch break to finish.
Still, when Chika was anxious, wondering when Ishigami started to talk with her when she was about to leave, he approached her and said, "Senpai, can we talk for a while?"
'Finally!'
Chika tried to stop the smile on her lips, tried to show a doubtful expression, and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
"I have something to discuss with you."
"Well, since you asked me, I don't mind spending some of my time with you."
"..." Ishigami.
"Follow me."
Even so, Chika obediently followed Ishigami.
Watching this, Kaguya sighed, but she knew that this was for the best.
"Shinomiya, are you okay?"
Kaguya was startled and looked at Shirogane, who asked her this question, and naturally, she nodded softly and said, "I am fine, Kaichou."
"Really? If you are not okay, you should rest," Shirogane said worriedly. He could tell that something was wrong with Kaguya, and he thought that her body felt uncomfortable.
"Well... can you help me to go to the infirmary? I might... need a rest there."
"Okay."
This time, Shirogane didn't show a shy or embarrassed expression since, in his mind, all of his attention was on Kaguya, and he was worried about her health.
On the other hand, Ishigami brought Chika to a quiet place, without anyone, so they could talk peacefully.
"So, what's wrong? What do you want to talk about?"
As Chika asked, she subconsciously twirled the tip of her hair, trying to look away, but her eyes kept looking at him, almost without blinking.
Ishigami was a bit nervous, but when he thought that Chika's family power wasn't as powerful as Kaguya's, he knew that he should be okay, but he knew that he really couldn't toy with her, so he had to be truthful.
"Senpai, I am sorry, but can we cancel our date on Sunday?"
"...huh?" Chika was dumbfounded and asked worriedly and curiously, "What's wrong? Do you have something to do that day?"
If there was something that made him ask her to cancel a date with a perfect heroine like her, then it should be because Ishigami had a problem in his family, or did he check a hospital where he caught a terminal disease that he only had a few days of living?
As she tried to search for a reason why Ishigami had asked her to cancel their date, she didn't realize how anxious she appeared to be, but out of all of the answers that she had thought of, she had never thought that it would be this answer.
"No, it's just I have a girlfriend now."
"...."
