Chapter 7

It’s been a few days since I broke up with Yukiya. And since then too, he hasn’t shown his face even once. It’s only natural, he’d do that. I’ve hurt him. I didn’t mean to make him show such an expression. I just wanted him to be happy.

Soon after that, I was allowed to leave the hospital as soon as they confirmed that there was nothing wrong with me after some tests.

When I returned home, Yukiya was not there. I sat down sullenly. I knew now that he was never coming back. Yukiya’s dishes and toothbrush were still there. I wonder, will he ever come back? I hope he will. But then I thought about how selfish that wish was and shook my head to shake off the thought.

I have to move on. I stood up, trying to hold back my tears. I have no right to cry.

The next day, to distract myself, I stopped by the university grounds and felt an unusual number of stares directed at me. It was not a good feeling.

I glanced around the surroundings with a glare, some of them turned away, some turned hostile. One of them approached me. It’s a man I remember seeing. He was one of the men who liked Yukiya, one who I had chastised for harassing and messing with Yukiya every chance he got.

“I heard you collapsed on campus grounds the other day, it’s quite a rumor.”

“Are you okay?” Those insincere words of his annoyed me. What are you trying to say? You’re not the kind of guy who worries about others. The detestable smirk on his face was getting on my nerves. There must be an ulterior motive. I glare back at the man.

“If you’re here for something, just get to the point and say it, I’m not busy.”

“Okay, then I’ll be straightforward. Follow me.”

As soon as the man said that, I was surrounded by about ten men. I had seen them all before, the men who had shown interest in Yukiya. The timing was perfect, and they’ve even ganged together to take revenge. It’s so ridiculous that I can’t help but laugh

I can handle something like this. From the looks of it, most of them were just amateurs. No matter how many amateurs you have, you can’t beat me. How much determination do you think I’ve put in so I could protect Yukiya? How long do you think I’ve been wishing for Koya’s happiness?

They surrounded me as I walked to the location they had invited me to.
