She offered me the bento box, which still had a lot left in it, but I pushed itback without hesitation.“It was a joke. Let’s go to the cafeteria. I’ll treat you to whatever you like.”It seemed Horikita did have some remnant of conscience as she answered.“But it must be expensive to feed both Ibuki and Kushida. Two people,right?”“Thanks to them, my food expenses have almost doubled. Kushidasancame even though I didn’t invite her.”“Do you think your and Ibuki’s presence serves as a good stress relief forKushida?”If they truly hated it, they wouldn’t choose to spend their time together, freemeals or not.“I wonder. She seems to enjoy inflicting damage on me more than anythingelse. Including Ibuki-san, it feels like they just can’t help wanting to see mystruggles and frustrated expression.”I see. That might be true as well.Spending the same time together, they could get a chance to see Horikita’sweak side.“It may be hard to imagine, but there must be some fun moments when thethree of you gather, right?”“There’s nothing like that. It’s not a typical girls’ gathering. There’s nolaughing, and it’s always tense. Did you not see our exchange earlier?”Looking back, the earlier gathering was indeed not enjoyable by any stretchof the imagination.The only time when Kushida, perhaps out of habit, showed a smile or asmirk, was less than half the number of times she did with others.But, strangely, there was no heavy or tense atmosphere. It felt rathercomfortable in a weird way.“Let’s go. It’s a waste of time to keep talking about those two forever.”“Sounds good.”As we started walking, I began to reflect on the mini-event that just tookplace.Despite the burden on my tongue and stomach, today’s gathering had beenincredibly meaningful.Horikita, Kushida, and Ibuki, who was from a different class.The newly formed, albeit distorted, relationship between the three of themwas unexpectedly sturdy and not to be underestimated.They would all surely deny it if I called this a friendship, but myinterpretation was that the sequence of surprises stemmed from the emergence of abudding friendship.RoyalMTLs27
However...“What?”Maybe Horikita didn’t like the fact that I, walking by her side, was lookingat her. She narrowed her eyes defiantly.“I was just thinking about what expensive food I could get you to treat meto.”“If that’s the case, you should eat what you want without worrying about thecost.”“I just want to eat the most expensive thing there is.”“Just... do whatever you want.”But then, for some reason, I was forced to decide on a set meal to eat.RoyalMTLs28
