I Became Friends with the Second Cutest Girl in My Class (WN)
Chapter 142: Yuu and Nagisa (2)Chapter 142 – Yuu and Nagisa (2)
I didn’t expect Amami-san to do that.
I thought it was Umi, but I guess I was wrong.
Actually, we discussed this a little bit. If Arae-san were to confront Amami-san again, Umi would step in and openly antagonize her so that Umi could act as a ‘common enemy’ to make those two cooperate a little.
That was the reason why I tagged along with Umi as much as I could, so I could support her and depending on the situation, we could call Nitta-san over also.
This was partly why I confronted Arae-san aside from her vulgar provocations.
Honestly, we expected this much, but we failed to take Amami-san’s actions into consideration.
“Say that again.”
“Sure, I’ll say it again as many times as you want.”
Amami-san continued with tears in her eyes.
“Arae-san, you’re lame, childish and stupid! You’ve been acting like this since the beginning! You always talked behind my back, you went out your way to embarrass me in front of everyone, you made fun of the people I care about, all for no reason but to satisfy your ego! Not only that, you made fun of the basketball team members but when it came to it, you ran away like a loser! And now, this? After you ran away and embarrassed everyone, you pulled the ‘It’s just a game’ card? If that isn’t pathetic and childish, what is?”
“Amami, you…”
Arae-san finally snapped and grabbed Amami-san’s collar roughly, causing the button of her uniform to pop off.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI realized that this situation was bad, so I immediately grabbed Arae-san’s arm.
“What, is it, Maehara?! Don’t touch me!”
“Do you think I’ll just stand and watch you using violence?”
“Maki-kun, wait.”
But, when I tried to drag her away, Amami-san touched my hand.
“Please stop it, Maki-kun… And you too, Umi… Believe in me, okay?”
“But, Amami-san…”
“What are you talking about, Yuu? Who knows what this b*tch will do to you…”
But Amami-san remained stubborn.
“Don’t worry. A brat like her can’t hurt me even if she wants to.”
“F*ck you… What do you know–”
“Yes, what do I know? You didn’t tell me anything, of course I wouldn’t know jack. Why should I care about what kind of past you have or what drama you had with your past teammates?”
“…Ah so that’s what it is, huh?!”
“Ugh!…”
Arae-san brushed off both Umi and I and put more strength into her hands that were grabbing Amami-san’s collar and pushed her against the wall.
Did she work out after she retired? She had more strength that I thought, it took two people to restrain her. Though most of her power probably came from her anger.
“Yo~ I got time, so I figured I’ll check on you— Wait, what are you guys doing?!”
“Nitta-san, lend us a hand!”
“Jeez, you owe me one, okay, Rep?”
Nitta-san arrived at the perfect moment and with her help, we managed to pull Arae-san away from Amami-san.
We left Amami-san to Umi while we restrained Arae-san, but her glare never left Amami-san.
It was about time the other students came back to the classroom and they would probably get the wrong idea if they were to see us like this, but it wasn’t like we could release them.
Was there somewhere where we could resolve this without anyone watching?
“Hm? What are you guys doing? Why are you guys so noisy?”
“Nakamura-san?”
Suddenly, class 11’s Nakamura-san in her exercise mode (she called it that, though it was just her without glasses), peeked out of the doorway.
She gave a quick glance at each of us.
“Hmm… Umu, got it. You guys are in a bit of trouble, aren’t you?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Y-Yeah, kinda… Uh, Nakamura-san, how many people are in the classroom now?”
“The boys are all out in the field and only the basketball team is there with a few others, we’re waiting for Asanagi-chan… If you want to borrow the classroom, feel free.”
“Thank you, Nakamura-san!”
“It won’t be free. You owe me, Miku, Kaede and Ryouko a favor, okay?~”
Nakamura-san then called out to Shichino-san, Kaga-san, Hayasaka-san and the others to vacate the room.
The tension between Amami-san and Arae-san had escalated to this point, so we had to settle things between them here, at least to some extent. I really had to thank class 11 for giving us the chance to do this.
Was this the correct thing to do in this situation? I wouldn’t know, but I think it would be better for both of them to vent all their frustrations for each other before the match started.
“Everyone set this up for us, so let’s settle this properly, Arae-san. You aren’t scared of me, right?”
“…Fine, let’s do this.”
Arae-san followed Amami-san and entered class 11.
Naturally, the three of us followed them.
“I’ll keep an eye on things outside. If things get bad, call me right away, okay?”
“Thank you, Nakamura-san. Also, sorry for bothering you like this…”
“It’s fiinee~ Moments like this are what make high school life colorful, no? It’s rare for drama this big to happen, after all~”
“Well, I guess…”
I entered the classroom as Nakamura-san left and closed the door.
We had to resolve this before the match and I had to do my best to ensure that Umi and everyone would be happy with whatever outcome would result from this conversation.
