My name is Katsunobu Ryota. I’m your average high school student and a total bookworm.

Talking with girls is impossible for me, and a girlfriend is nothing less than a dream…. HOWEVER……! I’m sitting across one right now alone in the school library???!!

Chapter Two: Friends?

A few days have passed since I first met Katsukawa san in the school library, and she has been visiting regularly ever since.

‘I wonder why she comes to the library every time though… ‘I was lost in my thoughts that I didn’t realise Katsukawa had already entered the library and was already seated across the table.

“What are you thinking about Ryuta kun?”

I snapped out of my day dream.

“Katsukawa san? Ah. It was nothing.”

For some reason Katsukawa started pouting and I have to say she’s cute even when she’s angry...Wait.. Now’s not the time for that. I have to figure out why she is pouting.

“Katsukawa san.. why are you pouting?”

The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.

She didn’t reply but instead looked away still pouting.

I thought about what may have made her angry.

“ is it because I said something?”

She didn’t reply but this time she looked at me with the corner of her eye.

Guess I’m in the right direction... but what exactly did I say wrong?... is it because I didn’t say what I was thinking about?

“Katsukawa san.. Before I was just wondering about why you keep visiting me. “

Katsukawa san finally turned towards me.

“I visit because I want to see you."

“...B-But wouldn’t it be more beneficial for you to hang out with your friends instead of sticking to a loser like me?”

For some reason it felt like that made her angrier.

“ But I am hanging out with a friend!”

This caught me by surprised.

“ R-right were friends.” I added.

Finally! My first female friend! You can rest peacefully! Grandma! Grandpa!

“.........BESIDES! I’m not angry because of that!”

“Eh? Then-“

“Yesterday!” She said, cutting me off before I could finish my sentence.

“I thought we agreed on first names?” she said softening her tone.

Ugh... this is too much for my heart.

”R-Right.. Sorry about that Katsu... Yuna..san....”

She almost instantly became happy again.

“And Ryuta Kun... You’re not a loser... at least to me.” She said, a little hint of red appearing in her cheeks before she covered her face with a book

“T-Thanks.. Yuna san.”

She looked at me, smiled and went back to reading her book with her face covered.

As for me, I am blessed to have witnessed another one of Yuna san’s faces: Flustered face. SSR!!
