I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo

Chapter 160: There are two places where you can cry

After he returned the flyers to Sorata, Shishio quickly chased after Nanami, but he had to admit that her speed was very fast. However, he could chase after her and didnʼt lose her, especially when he had ”Enhanced Vision,” but then while chasing after her, he was thinking about the cause of what had happened earlier.

Shishio had been talking with Yukinoshita, after all, so of course, he missed seeing what had happened before, but even if he didnʼt see what was happening, he could guess what had happened.

Shishio could tell that Sorata was mostly jealous. After all, he was sure that Sorata was watching him, talking intimately with Nanami, so when Nanami came to Sorata and offered her help, Sorata directly rejected and said that he didnʼt need her help, but with her personality, Nanami must have offered her help again to Sorata, but the more she talked, the more annoyed Sorata was, which caused Sorata subconsciously lash out his emotion to Nanami.

However, when Shishio thought about Sorataʼs personality and how Sorata lashed out his emotion to Shiina in the story, he felt that it was quite normal for Sorata to do that. He didnʼt even feel surprised, but he was just thinking that Sorata was quite stupid for getting angry at the school entrance.

If it was on a private or the place where there was no one that Shishio might beat Sorata, but Sorata got angry at the public in front of a lot of people, he didnʼt need to do anything, and he was sure that a lot of people might talk about him and created a rumor or so, but still, even though he didnʼt like Sorata, it didnʼt mean that he was going to drive him insane until Sorata decided to commit suicide since it would give a bitter taste to his mouth and he wasnʼt that ruthless unless Sorata really did something that he couldnʼt forgive as the yakuza group did to his aunt and her friends, so if possible, he wanted to make the relationship between Sorata and Nanami returned back to normal, just a normal classmate like that, but as for whether both of them could become together, he wasnʼt sure whether it was possible and he was sure that there would be a rift between them from now on.

Shishio walked to the rooftop, where he had talked with a lot of people before. He hadnʼt entered, but he could hear a sob voice from there. He then didnʼt hesitate and opened the door. ”Aoyama-san.”

”Ah!”

Nanami was startled, quickly wiped the tears from her eyes, and put on a forced smile. ”Oga-kun, what are you doing here? The class has almost started to, you know, you should go back.”

Shishio really wanted to curse Sorata at this moment to make such a cute girl cry like this. He then walked closer and said, ”Iʼm worried about you. You suddenly ran away like that after all.”

Nanami saw that Shishio moved closer and couldnʼt help but move backward subconsciously since she really didnʼt want anyone to see her like this. ”Itʼs nothing. You should go back to the class you know. Iʼm really alright. Just---” She hadnʼt finished her words, and suddenly she was hugged.

When the girls said that she was alright, it was without a doubt the girl wasnʼt alright.

Shishio just couldnʼt leave Nanami like this and let her emotion be bottled up, and when she returned, she would act like nothing had happened and talk like usual with Sorata and everyone in the class. Even if Sorata was happy, and everyone was happy, he wasnʼt happy, and he was sure that Nanami wouldnʼt be happy, after all, she was just a girl who was living in Tokyo alone without anyone that she could rely upon, chasing after a dream that no one really knew whether it could be achieved or not so acting as if nothing happened was her way to live. Even though he didnʼt really want to admit it, Sorata was also her pillar of support.

Without a pillar of support or someone that could support her, Nanami might break anytime, which was why at this moment, Shishio needed her to cry, let out all of the bottled-up emotion that she had kept, and, if possible, be her pillar of support.
