I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo

Even though it was raining, they didn't immediately go back, but waited for a while at the clubroom, waiting for the rain to end since they had decided to go to the karaoke, but after a while, the rain didn't stop, and it kept pouring as if telling them to go home rather than playing around.

"No way, it is still raining...." 3x

Maiko, Nana, and Mea were disappointed when they saw that it was raining. They saw the sky was dark, and the rain was pouring down from the sky. They had been so excited to go to the karaoke together, but now?

"I have told you before, right? Did you bring your umbrella?" Shishio asked, looking at the three girls.

"Of course, I bring it, but..." If Shishio didn't remind her, then Nana wouldn't bring her umbrella. She was happy that she didn't need to wait for the rain to pass at the school, but could they go to the karaoke while it was raining?

"We can go there anytime, so let's just go back now, alright?" Shishio asked.

Before Shishio went to school, he reminded most of the people on his contacts, so they didn't forget to bring their umbrellas before they went to the school.

If the weather prediction was wrong, it didn't matter, but if it was right, they needed to wait on the school for a long time until the end of the rain since they didn't bring an umbrella, which was pretty much an inconvenience.

"Well, that's true." Nana nodded and said, "It'll be bad if we're caught by cold after all."

Shishio sighed in relief since he didn't need to go to karaoke. He didn't mind going to the karaoke, but he felt that it was necessary to solve one of the troubles that he hadn't solved first.

No one also had any intention to go to the karaoke since it was raining, and it was also pretty bad if they were caught in the cold, so then they decided to go home together.

Ritsu also sighed in relief since she didn't need to go to the karaoke. She then looked at Miu, who showed a troubled expression, and asked, "What's wrong, Miu?" Her relationship with Miu was pretty good since they were from the same class, and she also didn't mind staying with Miu since Miu was quiet, polite, and well-spoken, so it was nice to talk with her. Seeing her show a troubled expression, she couldn't help but ask.

"Ah, I forgot to bring an umbrella," Miu said with a troubled expression.

Ritsu thought that she could lend her umbrella to Miu since she knew that Shiina, Saki, and Shishio brought their own umbrella, and she thought that she could go back by sharing an umbrella with either of them. She glanced at Shishio secretly, but then she noticed that he was looking in her direction.

'No, it's Miu?'

"Then Senpai, do you want to go home with me?" Shishio asked.

"Eh?" Miu was surprised, and her face instantly turned red.

Shishio knew that Miu tried to avoid him, so he didn't remind her to bring her umbrella today, and this way, he could use that reason to go home with her.

They were stunned when they heard Shihio's words, but before Miu replied, some of them quickly reacted.

"Why do you want to go home with Miu-senpai?" Mea asked with a frown.

"Are you going to do something bad with Miu-senpai?" Maiko also frowned.

Both Mea and Maiko knew that Shishio was a scumbag, and not only Shishio was dating Nana, but he also dated Saki. Even though they couldn't accept it, watching how happy Nana and Saki were, they could only forgive him, but if this guy was going to add more girls... then he needed to walk over their dead bodies!

"You're thinking too much." Shishio looked at Mea and Maiko helplessly and said, "I want to ask about the development of the literature club."

"The development of the literature club?" Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard Shishio's words.

"Um." Shishio nodded and said, "I mean, from what I have listened to, what you were doing from previous club activity was either talking, reading, drinking tea, or eating a snack, right? I'm not sure what the previous literature club was doing last year, but I feel that there should be a change in this club."

"What kind of changes?"

They seemed to be affected by his words and couldn't help but ask.

"If it's a sports club, then we'll train to win a competition, right? Then as the literature club, we shouldn't lose to those clubs. However, I'm not sure what kind of activity we can do, so I need to discuss it with Miu-senpai," Shishio said without hesitation.

Everyone nodded and thought that it was reasonable for him to go with Miu, but...

"But we have a club tomorrow, right? Why don't you talk tomorrow? You can even talk with Kiriya-sensei about this matter," Nana said while squinting her eyes.

"..."

Shishio didn't expect that his girlfriend would bring him trouble.

Nana rolled her eyes and said, "Well, Miu-senpai might be troubled if she goes back like this, and it's also pretty sad to leave her alone at school, so can you help her to go home? Shishio?"

"Don't worry. I'll send her back." Shishio then looked at Miu and asked, "Is that okay with you, Senpai?" He had to admit that Nana was a great girlfriend at that moment, and at the same time, he knew that he needed to make up Nana, Saki, and Shiina after this. After all, he also knew that it was selfish of him to confess to Miu.

Miu knew that what Shishio had said before was just an excuse so he could go back with her. She was a bit shy, but at the same time, she also knew that she needed to talk with him. "Yes."

Shishio and Miu had decided to go back together.

Mea and Maiko looked at Nana, who seemed to be okay, and didn't say much.

Ritsu also looked at Saki, who didn't say much about this matter and even told them to go back together.

Still, the thoughts of Mea, Maiko, and Ritsu were pretty similar since they were wondering what was happening.

The sound of rain hitting against the umbrella was mixed with the sound of their shoes stepping into the wet ground.

Miu could feel how wet her shoes were at that moment, but she didn't care about any of that now.

As they walked out of the school, Miu glanced at Shishio shyly. She observed him from the side and could see how tall his body was, but what attracted her the most was how happy he was at that moment. "Wh - Why are you smiling?" She wasn't sure why, but she had to admit that he was so handsome when he smiled.

"I'm happy that I have taken your first, Senpai," Shishio said.

"Eh?!" Miu's cute face turned red instantly.

"I was joking."

"Shishio-kun!!"

Shishio laughed and said, "Still, is this your first time to share an umbrella with a guy, Senpai?"

Miu snorted, but then she shook her head. "No."

"Eh?"

"I have shared it with my father and little brother in the past," Miu said with a smile and felt happy when she saw Shishio's stunned expression.

"...."

Shishio didn't expect that Miu would tease him, but at the same time, he was wondering why the high school students in this country thought too much about sharing an umbrella with the opposite gender.

Not only sharing an umbrella, drinking from the same bottle, holding hands during a dance, and various other more.

Shishio never thought too much about those things, but for some people, they thought about the activity above as a lewd thing.

"Shishio-kun, how about you?" Miu asked nervously.

"Me?" Shishio looked at Miu curiously, what this girl wanted to say.

"Have you shared an umbrella with a girl?" Miu's expression was a bit unnatural, and she quickly said, "I guess this must be nothing special for you, right? You must have a lot of experience in the past." She just wasn't sure about Shishio's feelings toward her, especially when he had already dated three girls and he also couldn't even say "I love you," but even though she wasn't sure about what kind of feeling that he had, she was happy that she could walk side by side like this with him, being teased, and sharing an umbrella with him.

Miu wasn't sure how long this kind of day would continue, or rather, she hoped that the rain wouldn't stop so they could stay like this. However, she knew that she couldn't

"No, this is my first time sharing an umbrella with a girl," Shishio said.

"Eh? Really?" Miu was surprised.

"What are you surprised by, Senpai?" Shishio was speechless and said, "It's pretty normal, right?" It was the second time that he had experienced rain in this world. His first time with rain, he carried Shiina directly to the hotel so the rain wouldn't hit them, and they didn't have an umbrella at that time.

As for the memory of the previous Shishio Oga, even though he knew that there was an existence of a girl in his memory, and there was also a memory of him sharing an umbrella with this girl. It was still his first time sharing an umbrella with a girl, considering the previous Shishio Oga was different from him.

Miu couldn't help but smile and laugh, hearing his response since she could see that Shishio wasn't lying at this moment.

Shishio could only shake his head when he saw Miu smiling and laughing, but he had to admit that this girl was cute.

Miu looked at Shishio, but then she noticed something. "Oh! I'm sorry for making you hold the umbrella, Shishio-kun. I'll hold it for you." She felt that she had caused too much trouble for Shishio by bringing her back home, holding the umbrella, and even helping her revive the literature club.

"Oh, I don't mind." Shishio looked at Miu and said, "It works better if the taller person holds it, right?"

"...."

Miu pouted and held the shaft of the umbrella. "Shishio-kun, let me hold it!" She knew that she was short compared to Shishio, but she didn't want him to say that!

"No way."

"But your left side is soaked, Shishio-kun! This is your umbrella! Make sure you leave some room for yourself too!"

"But I don't want you to get wet, Miu-senpai."

"It's fine!"

Then Miu and Shishio moved closer and stared at each other before they laughed.

Shishio looked at Miu and said, "I think this is my first time to see you laugh so happily for a while, Senpai."

"Really?" Miu looked at Shishio with a helpless expression. "It's probably because you've caused me a lot of trouble, Shishio-kun."

"Did I cause you so much trouble?" Shishio asked with a guilty expression.

Looking at Shishio's guilty expression, Miu felt her heart tighten, and she also held the umbrella shaft tightly. She wanted to say that the truth was she had fun being with him, but she was wondering whether it was okay to say that so easily.

But...

Miu couldn't bear to see Shishio's guilty expression and quickly said, "Shishio-kun, it'll be a big trouble if you catch a cold." She then looked around and noticed a closed shop where they could take shelter from the rain. "How about we stop there for a while?"

"I'm fine."

"Come on, just for a while."

Miu brought Shishio to the shop, standing under the eaves before putting her bag on the bench. "Wait a moment. I should have..." She searched over her bag and found a white towel inside.

Shishio looked at Miu, who spread the white towel and said, "You really come prepared, Senpai."

"It's just a habit since my siblings are a bit naughty." Holding her towel, Miu said, "Please sit down on the bench first, Shishio-kun." Even though she didn't want to admit it, compared to Shishio, she was a bit short.

Shishio didn't say much and sat down on the bench, but then he looked at Miu, who put the towel on the top of his head and dried his hair with a towel, which made him unable to help but sigh helplessly. He had always been the one who doted on someone, but this might be the first time someone had doted on him. "You're very doting, Miu-senpai."

"Please stay still, Shishio-kun." Miu couldn't help but reprimand Shishio, who tried to move around as she kept drying the wet part on his body. "Okay, just one more."

Shishio stared at Miu, who was so kind and couldn't help but say, "...You're so kindhearted that I'm a little worried that I'm taking advantage of that."

"Hmm?" Miu tilted her head, looking at Shishio.

"I know that you might not be able to accept the fact that I have dated several girls at the same time. I have also tried to confess to you because I don't want our relationship to change, but I have realized how selfish I was. I've started to worry you might try to put up with me, and you're just forcing yourself. I'm scared that you'll end up hating me because of it. Are you sure that you're okay?"

Shishio knew that he had already three girlfriends, and he was thinking of adding Miu again because he didn't want his relationship with Miu to change, but at the same time, he also knew how selfish he was. He also had kissed her before when she hadn't accepted his confession, and he was also wondering how she felt about that.

Hearing Shishio's words, Miu felt that she was the one who was being pampered and when she saw this expression, but at the same time, she just couldn't help but feel that this expression was quite unfair, right?

Miu knew that she couldn't hate him, and she also knew what she felt about him. "Shishio-kun."

"Hmm?"

Shishio raised his head, but then he was stunned when he was kissed!

Miu knew that she was quite bold now, but she didn't hate it, and she felt happy when she saw his stunned expression. Still, his lips were too nice, right? She was wondering why she didn't do this in the past.

"..."

Miu kissed his lips as she closed her eyes before she parted her lips and showed a bright smile, looking at Shishio. "I'm fine. I'd never forced myself, and I'm happy with your confession before, Shishio-kun." Her face flushed, but she kept staring at him and said, "So this time, I'll say this to you, Shishio-kun." She took a deep breath and said, "I love you, Shishio-kun."

Shishio blinked his eyes and asked, "Can you say that one more time, Senpai?"

Miu was shy, but she said, "I love you, Shishio-kun."

"Again."

"I love you, Shishio-kun!"

"One more time!"

"Mooo, Shishio-kun!!!" Miu pouted with a red face.

Shishio and Miu then sat next to each other, and he tried to coax her since she was pouting after he teased her.

"Senpai, let's stay like this for a little longer. Can we?"

"...Sure," Miu said with a red face.

"Yay!"

Miu saw Shishio, who smiled happily as he leaned his body at her. She flushed once again and felt happy, and at the same time, she realized how warm his body was, which made her greedy. She wanted his warmth more and tried to hold his hand, but she felt a bit nervous until she felt he held her hand.

Miu was surprised before she smiled at Shishio.

Her heart was so uncomfortable before, thinking about how to answer him, thinking about their future, and thinking about what she was about to do. Still, right now, when she was able to say that she loved him, she felt that everything was so clear and everything was so beautiful. Even the rain that made her shoes wet was also beautiful.

Sitting next to each other as they talked, Miu was attracted to the hydrangea planted on the shop's side.

"Shishio-kun, what color hydrangea do you like?"

Miu turned her head to ask Shishio that question, but when she turned her head, he kissed her lips, which stunned her. Then, as they parted their lips, she blushed again and could see him, smiling as if he had succeeded in teasing her.

"I love you, Miu."

Miu's lips trembled, her eyes were red, and tears dripped from her eyes, but her smile couldn't be hidden, showing how happy she was. She saw him, wiping her tears gently as she held his hand in silence, rubbing her cheek against his tough hands. She loved this feeling, and at the same time, she realized that today might be the most beautiful rain that she had ever seen.

"By the way, Miu."

"Hmm?"

"Can I kiss you again?"

Miu blushed, but then she looked at him with a helpless expression.

"Mooo, this is the last time, alright?"

As the rain continued, they closed their distance once again.
