“Uisssuuu.”

“Uy.”

　Monday arrived.

　As I was lying on my desk, Takase, a bad friend of mine, tapped me on the shoulder.

He sat down in the seat in front of me.

“You didn’t get enough sleep?”

“Yes.”

“You should keep yourself up late.”

“It’s more like a sleep disorder.”

“I don’t remember Hiroto being a bad sleeper.”

“No, I’ve never had a bad night’s sleep.”

Had

　Past tense.

“What’s wrong again?”

“It’s a long story…”

　I started and told Takase about Saturday.

“—Heh, that made it less awkward as a result, but I guess that’s why Asuka is so besotted with Hiroto. Long calls with ex-girlfriends, I see.”

　Takase smiled happily.

As for Sunday, I had a regular part-time job, and it was a very busy weekend.

“It’s no laughing matter.”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I mean, why don’t you just get back together? If that’s how it’s going to be.”

　Takase suggested in a frivolous tone.

　I assured him firmly.

“That is not the right thing to do.”

　I asked Asuka if she was half-heartedly prepared to get back together with me.　

　No, wrong—-I was sure I wasn’t.

“I see. But there’s no point in thinking too much about it. It’s not like anyone is blaming you, so I think it’s fine if you get back together right after the breakup.”

“…………. By the way, Takase, what do you think about me getting a new girlfriend?”

“Ha? Eh?”

Takase’s mouth dropped open and his eyelids fluttered.

“Uhm, you mean you’re going out with another girl, not Asuka?”

“Yes.”

　Takase put his hand over his mouth and made a thoughtful face.

“If Hiroto wants to keep his distance from Asuka, that’s fine.”

He told me in a straightforward manner.

　In the past, Takase had made a proposal to make a girlfriend.

However, that time, too, it was in the name of cutting off Asuka’s unfulfilled love.

“It’s not that I want to keep my distance from her”

“If that’s the case, I don’t think there’s any need to force you to make one.”

　That’s a different opinion from Chinami’s.

Well, it would be strange if they all had the same opinion.

　After school that day.

　As I exited the classroom after the homeward HR, Asuka was waiting for me, leaning her weight against the wall nearby.

　When she saw me, she ran up to me.

“Let’s go home together, Hiroto.”

“O-ou.”

　Asuka smiled at me from a distance so close that our shoulders almost collided.

　I was a little confused.

　Asuka was strangely unconcerned about me.

　That’s what I wanted, and it’s easier to talk to her that way.

　But what is the difference between this situation and when we were dating?

　Is it okay? This situation?

　I broke up with Asuka, right?　

“So… I was thinking about making lunch tomorrow, so I can make one for Hiroto while I’m at it, but…”

　As Asuka makes such a suggestion as we approach the entrance to the school.

Tsun Tsun, she looked at me while attaching and detaching the index fingers of both hands.

“Don’t worry about it. We’ve already broken up.”

“What does that matter?　Why don’t you let your ex-girlfriend make lunch for you?”

“I think that’s a rare occurrence.”

“I’ll ask if there’s anything you’d like.”

　Well, it’s no wonder I’m so weirdly concerned about it.

Asuka has said that she will make you a lunch box.

” Then, a hamburger steak.”

“Roger”

　Asuka made a quick salute and smiled lightly.

　Time passed a little and it was around the time I got out of the bath.

I looked at my phone and saw a message.

　I operated my phone while drying my hair.

[Hiro-kun, did you and Asuka get back together after all?]

　It was from Chinami.

　I operated the phone.

[No, we didn’t.]”

　The message was immediately read and a reply was sent.

[Asuka, she’s in a really good mood. She was talking about her bento.]

[Aah, Asuka is supposed to make me a lunch box tomorrow.]

[Is that okay?]

[What do you mean “‘okay’?”]

[There is no need to cut ties or anything like that, but if you’re broken up with, I think there’s a certain moderation that comes with being broken up with.]

……A moderate relationship, huh?

[If you don’t want to get back together with Asuka, you shouldn’t be too concerned about her.]

“…………”

　I think she’s right.

　The only thing is, I still haven’t sorted out how I feel about it. I don’t know what I want to do with Asuka.

[Ah, I’m sorry if I sounded preachy. If Hiro-kun wants to get back together with Asuka, I’ll totally support you. That’s all.]

[No, thank you.]

Jizo sends a stamp with a bowed head.

　I was a little troubled and then chatted with Chinami again.

[Can I ask you for some advice now?]

[Heh, sure. Want to call?]

[If possible.]

[Okay.]

　I start talking to Chinami.

　Thanks to Chinami, I was able to face my feelings.

　However, there is no use in keeping this to myself.

　This is the time to talk things over with Asuka—-
