"I see... is that so? I know, thank you, Oga-kun! Kanda-kun looks a bit strange recently, and I'm worried about whether something happened to him, so today thank you and sorry for the trouble, Oga-kun."
Nanami bowed her head to Shishio and also felt that she was a little impulsive.
Originally, Nanami and Shishio weren't that familiar, but she called him out suddenly and she wasn't sure whether she would cause a misunderstanding, especially when there were several girls in the class who had a feeling about him.
"Have... Have I caused you trouble?" Nanami asked worriedly since she knew that Shishio's relationship with Nana was quite close.
"It's okay, I understand. I noticed that Aoyama-san and Kanda-kun had a very good relationship before, and it is normal for you to worry about your friend. It's also shown that Aoyama-san is someone who values her friend." Shishio let out a sigh and said, "But I have to admit that I'm a bit jealous of Kanda-kun who has a cute girl like you to worry about him." He felt quite moved by Nanami's feeling toward Sorata, although, he felt that Sorata wasn't worthy of Nanami's effort.
"Wh - What are you talking about, Oga-kun!" Nanami was shy when she heard Shishio's words.
Shishio smiled and thought that this girl was very cute, but he quickly slapped his head since it had always been his bad habit to flirt with a girl.
Nanami's face blushed and turned red. She combed the hair that was blown by the wind behind her ears with her hand, looking away from him with embarrassment and for some reason, she suddenly felt the sky seemed to be clearer, and she had to admit that Shishio's smile just now was very warm and handsome.
"By the way, can I ask Oga-kun to keep what I have asked before as a secret? Please don't tell Kanda-kun about this matter."
Nanami looked at Shishio nervously, and at the same time, today's impulse made her very embarrassed, but her feeling was quite contradictory and complicated, after all, she was afraid that she might trouble him because she called him out today.
"Well, next time, how about you send me a message, if you want to ask something again?" Shishio said.
"Message?" Nanami nodded and said, "Can we exchange our contact info and email?" She thought that if she had his contact info then she could ask him anytime.
"Alright."
Both of them exchanged their contact info and emails, and after that, Shishio said, "Alright, we should go back now, the next class is about to begin."
Shishio quickly reminded Nanami while looking at the time on his phone.
"Ah! Is it already time? I'm sorry! I... I forgot about it..." Nanami quickly reacted since she remembered that the time between the classes was quite short, so she knew that they needed to be in hurry to go back to the class or else, they would be late.
Both of them quickly returned and fortunately, the two of them returned before the bell rang.
It was just when they returned, Nanami didn't notice that Sorata's expression was very cold, and his breathing was erratic. He couldn't see Shishio's expression since it was calm as usual, but Nanami seemed to be flushed and smiled, the two talked to each other with a smile, which made him feel everything was like a nightmare.
"Hey, Kanda-kun, these two people will not be... hehe..."
The male classmate who was sitting behind Sorata looked at Shishio and Nanami with a weird smile, his finger constantly poking Sorata who was in front of him.
"...."
Sorata looked at the expression of the classmate behind him, and suddenly felt a strong sense of humiliation. Obviously, he and Nanami had known each other for a long time, or rather out of everyone in this class, he knew her better and the best, but suddenly Shishio appeared beside her and stole her like it was nothing.
Sorata felt like he was being cuckolded, especially when he saw both Shishio and Nanami who seemed like they were showing their affection in front of him. He gritted his teeth until it was almost broken.
"Kanda-kun, you were so close with Aoyama-san before, so I thought you two..." Miyahara (Sorata's classmate) classmate looked at Sorata strangely.
Miyahara, Sorata, and Nanami also came from affiliated middle schools together, and Miyahara had always seen both Sorata and Nanami together, so he always thought that the two of them were dating each other.
The truth was that although Nanami transferred to the middle school quite late, her popularity among the boys was very high, it was also the reason why Miyahara felt jealous of Sorata since both Sorata and Nanami often hang out together.
"I have nothing to do with Aoyama, she's just a classmate." Sorata gritted his teeth and said those words before turning his head and ignoring everyone.
"Eh? Is that so?" Miyahara was stunned since he didn't expect Sorata to say that. Based on his understanding, between Sorata and Nanami, he was wondering whether something went wrong between the two.
However, it wasn't easy to ask about this kind of thing, after all, looking at Sorata now, Miyahara felt like he was looking at a man that was just dumped by his girlfriend, and if he touched Sorata casually, this guy might do something crazy.
Shishio was about to sit down in his seat, but Nanami quickly followed him and said in a low voice.
"By the way, Oga-kun, that..." Nanami glanced at Sorata's back and looked at Shishio with some hesitation.
"I know, I'll tell you if I know something and if want to ask something then just call or send me a message." Shishio nodded and told her to be relieved since he was going to take care of this.
"I'm not... uh, okay!" Nanami looked at Sorata who was in a state of mixed anger and depression and felt a strong resistance in her heart. She wanted to explain the misunderstanding but swallowed her words because the teacher came, but fortunately, she had gotten his number so she could fix the misunderstanding later.

When the class ended, it was time for a break. Shishio thought to buy bread or two before he went to visit Chihiro, but someone came to him very fast.
"Nana." Shishio looked at Nana and knew what this girl wanted to ask.
"Is Aoyama-san confessed to you, Shishio?" Nana asked curiously, after all, she knew that Shishio had received a lot of love letters.
"No, she didn't come to confess to me." Shishio shook his head, and when he saw her expression, he quickly said, "But I can't explain to you why since I have promised her not to tell anyone."
Nana wanted to ask something again, but someone interrupted her.
"Oga, Have you been confessed to by Aoyama-san?" Tagami asked with a bitter expression.
"...No."
Shishio was speechless, looking at Tagami, but he knew that this guy was very desperate for a girlfriend, and said, "You know Tagami, rather than talking about myself, you should think about yourself now since you want to get a girlfriend, right?'
"If I can get a girlfriend now then I won't have to worry about anything!!!" Tagami cried since Shishio really couldn't understand the pain of a normal guy.
Nana wanted to smack Tagami since this guy had bothered them, but in the end, she didn't think too much and decided to ask Shishio to have lunch, but...
"Shishio, are you here?"
The voice of a woman was heard, and everyone was looking at the door of the classroom, and they saw a female teacher standing there with a gloomy expression.
"Huh? Chihiro-nee?" Shishio was surprised when Chihiro came directly to his class.
"It's Chihiro-sensei, but I don't care about any of that. Follow me now," Chihiro said directly then glanced at Nana for a bit.
Nana was also staring at Chihiro then looked at Shishio.
"Sorry, Nana." Shishio apologized since he knew that Nana wanted to invite him to have lunch.
"It's alright, you should go to your aunt first. It won't be good if you let her wait," Nana said.
"Thanks." Shishio nodded then walked out to follow Chihiro.
"Sunohara-san, is Oga's aunt a teacher?" Tagami asked curiously.
"Yes." Nana nodded then walked away since she felt a bit lonely since she couldn't eat lunch with Shishio so she thought to eat lunch with her friends.
"..."
Tagami was speechless, but then he felt that his shoulder was patted. He turned back and saw Usa was there, looking at him with a smile.
"Don't mind."
"....."
---
Unlike what Shishio imagined, he thought that Chihiro would bring him to the teacher's room, but she brought him to the rooftop which made him speechless since it was his second time to be here.
Chihiro looked at Shishio with a smile and said, "You really have guts, Shishio! Not long after you came to Tokyo, you didn't go home last night. Would you like me to call my sister so she would know that her dear son was staying out after a few days of his stay in Tokyo?" She didn't even eat her lunch before and came directly to Shishio since she really had a lot of things to say to him. She held her phone and showed it to Shishio, showing a charming smile at him.
"...."
Shishio was wondering why a woman had always been very troublesome, but at this moment, he only looked at Chihiro in silence without saying anything since he knew that she was joking and when a woman was angry, it was better to not say anything, only wait until the storm ended since the more he talked the more tired he was.
If possible, Shishio wanted to push Chihiro to the wall, then shut her mouth with his lips so she wouldn't be noisy, but he knew that he couldn't do that. He also started to think whether it was better to move out from Sakurasou since the curfew on Sakuraous was very troublesome and he also had a luxurious apartment building, and it would be wasteful to not use it.
"Hmph! If you want to leave then you should ask for my permission and notify me first, don't suddenly just leave and give your phone to a random woman that you don't know." Chihiro pouted slightly and put her phone in her pocket.
"........."
Shishio really had to admit that this woman was really cute for her age.
"I'm sorry, Chihiro-nee. Next time, I'll tell you if I go somewhere," Shishio said with a light smile on his face.
"Next time?" Chihiro's expression turned sharp at this moment, and asked, "Say, do you have a girlfriend now?" It felt very hard to accept, here she was trying very hard to find a husband, but her nephew could choose any girls that he liked as long as he wanted to, which made her helpless, and at the same time, she also felt a bit unwilling. She looked at him, who always said that wanted to marry her during his childhood time, but now, there were a lot of girls beside him and at this moment, she thought that a man was a born liar.
If Shishio knew what this woman was thinking, he would be lost for words, but he didn't have time to think about all of that.
Shishio raised, but he shook his head and said, "No, I don't have a girlfriend." He really didn't have a girlfriend, but he had an intimate relationship with some girls.
"Really?" Chihiro raised her eyebrow and looked quite doubtful.
"Yes." Shishio nodded calmly.
"Then prove it to me," Chihiro said, squinting her eyes, and from her expression alone, she wouldn't let him go until he told her everything.
"........."
At that moment, Shishio was wondering whether the woman in front of him was his girlfriend or his aunt?
