To Yoshimura himself, his friends were great.
"Yes friend ...?"
________
'Yeah, even though I haven't found peace until now, at least I found some people who care about me enough, and they are my friends….'
In between activities, when Yoshimura was about to burn the trash, several students from his class passed him. Some of the students who met with Yoshimura had just finished from club activities.
Even though they passed each other, they had no desire to greet the ugly boy. It's like there's such a big distance between them even though they're just friends. In fact they only glanced at it for a moment without paying attention to it anymore.
Yoshimura was eager to greet him however, seeing the expressions on their stiff faces in front of him made him reluctant and he just continued on his way to collect the dry trash that should be properly burned.
