Ever since Hayato and Yukino Fuyumi had a deep and intimate exchange.
Their relationship couldn't be described as close; it could only be said they were like strangers.
This morning, after Hayato made breakfast for Yukino Fuyumi, he went downstairs to his home to prepare for school.
Perhaps because the battle last night was exhausting, but the fruits of victory were sweet, both of them woke up relatively early. By the time they finished breakfast, it was not yet seven. Japan's high school classes started at 8:30, so even with travel time, Hayato leaving at 8:00 was perfectly fine.
He was reviewing his lessons while biting an apple he had "borrowed" from Miyajima Tsubaki's bedside, until about 7:30.
Hayato heard a faint rustling sound from outside, similar to a mouse burrowing.
He opened the door and looked out.
It turned out that Yukino Fuyumi was standing at the door of room 404, not saying a word, just standing there.
"…Hi?" Hayato just wanted to say hello.
But the snow-white figure remained silent, not giving any reply, and turned to leave.
Hayato scratched his head. He had originally wanted to ask Yukino Fuyumi if she had truly resolved the "Snow Woman's Curse," but then he thought that the phrase "Are you still in heat?" was indeed a bit blunt, so he didn't follow her.
Plus, he had just been reading and was in the mood for some problems.
He stayed at home, using that half-hour to tackle two difficult math problems, working so intensely that he lost track of time and even the great dao was obliterated. Naturally, he didn't pay attention to this matter.
But thankfully, judging by Yukino Fuyumi's route, she was not going upstairs but downstairs.
This meant her body was at least well enough to go out and be seen.
Hayato packed his schoolbag and went downstairs.
He walked out of the apartment.
As soon as he stepped out of the apartment gate, he saw Yukino Fuyumi leaning against the apartment wall, her light-colored eyes gazing at the pointed tips of her high heels, as if waiting for someone.
Seeing Hayato come out.
She turned her pale face away, still not speaking to him.
Hayato glanced at the time on his phone and then stood beside her.
Like her, he leaned his back against the wall.
It must be said that although Takahashi Administrator wasn't exactly a human being when it came to matters of the heart, his professional skills were quite good. At least, despite the apartment being old, the cleanliness of the wall facilities was decent; it wasn't dirty.
When Hayato leaned against it, even though he was leaning against the wall, Yukino Fuyumi let out a strange cry of "Eek!" as if her chest had been touched.
Goosebumps appeared all over, and her delicate body shivered.
Hayato: …
He looked at his geographical position; at least three more people could stand between them. With hands not touching hands and feet not touching feet, why did it feel like he was being frivolous with her?
Hayato briefly glanced at the overly dramatic Yukino Fuyumi.
The latter lowered her gaze, a flush spreading across her pale face. She wasn't sure if it was from shame at her earlier overreaction or fear that Hayato might do something out of line…
Hayato was even more speechless.
Yesterday, he was the one who worked like a dog, okay? Most of what happened in bed was basically initiated by her, and he only made a few advances when she ran out of energy… How did she become the victim after all was said and done?
But Hayato didn't say these things.
What happened in bed stays in bed.
There was no point in discussing these things after getting out of bed. Moreover, although there weren't many people around Shikenjaya, one or two people occasionally passed by. In broad daylight, in public, even if Yukino Fuyumi had no shame, Hayato did.
The two remained silent for a considerable period again.
Hayato, who remained silent, felt Yukino Fuyumi's gaze on him, soft and stealthy, again and again. Finally, after seven or eight stolen glances, Yukino Fuyumi couldn't hold it in anymore. She said coldly:
"I'm going out to look for a job now."
"That's good news," Hayato interjected.
"I'll pay you back your money," Yukino Fuyumi said.
"No hurry," Hayato said.
"If there's no hurry, why are you standing next to me for so long?" Yukino Fuyumi frowned and said.
She was indeed waiting for someone here, and the person she was waiting for was Hayato. The purpose was to tell him about her going to find a job… She naturally assumed that the reason this boy was waiting here was because he wanted her to make a statement.
But as soon as the word "no hurry" came out, Yukino Fuyumi realized she had misunderstood something.
Since he wasn't in a hurry for her to pay back the money, the reason he was still waiting here for so long might be because…
"Bang," like an internal combustion engine exploding.
Yukino Fuyumi's face instantly became hot and flushed.
"Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't worry about me," Yukino Fuyumi stammered for a while, then tried to clear her throat, but unexpectedly choked on her saliva. She covered her small mouth and coughed for a while before speaking again: "Although I haven't been out for a long time, I still know the way… But since you're worried… I, I'll allow you to come with me to the subway…"
Before she could finish her sentence, she noticed Hayato's expression change.
The boy was looking at her with a "what are you saying" expression, and while she was speaking, the boy had already placed his phone next to his ear, seemingly having dialed a number.
And then what he said wasn't to her.
"What are you doing? I've been waiting at your door for at least ten minutes. If you don't get up soon, I'm leaving," Hayato said impatiently into the phone.
Yukino Fuyumi: …
She looked at Hayato, then at the detached house across the street.
Her shy demeanor instantly vanished.
And then…
"Heh, heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh…"
Her laughter gradually turned cold.
"...Huh?" Hayato felt something was off.
"You bastard!!" Yukino Fuyumi was furious.
She, who never raised her voice, practically screamed that sentence.
Hayato blinked, not yet speaking.
"From now on, we go our separate ways, and let's pretend we don't know each other!!" Yukino Fuyumi stomped her foot, giving Hayato an arrogant back.
Damn it, so he was waiting for that rich woman… She thought he was standing there because he wanted to go out with her. As expected, a little rascal is still a little rascal… Damn it, damn it!!
Watching Yukino Fuyumi's agitated back, Hayato heard movement from in front of him.
The door of the detached house across the street opened, and Aiya Hiroshi walked out.
"What's wrong, Brother Hayato? Why do I sound like I heard Godzilla?" Aiwu Guang asked, somewhat frightened.
"…You misheard."
Hayato put down his phone, smiled slightly, and glanced at the direction Yukino Fuyumi had left, saying faintly, "It was a demi-human."
Then he thought about Yukino Fuyumi's chest heaving up and down from anger.
No.
It was a big-breasted person.
