My Classmate Whom I Helped Seems to Be Mentally Sick, So I've Been Trying My Best to Hide My True Identity, But It Seems Like I've Been Found Out - Chapter 19

Scheme

It’s unclear how things have come to this, but the discussion regarding Saki Mifune ended rather easily.

We will let Saki Mifune join the club.

This unexpected resolution left me bewildered, but Sumire Murasaki has been in high spirits since the conversation ended.

“Hehe, I feel so refreshed. So, do you always eat your aunt’s homemade meals for dinner?”

“No, on the days when my mom is not around, I just buy something.”

“Then, are you planning to buy something today?”

“Well, that was the plan.”

“It would be a waste; I’ll cook for you since I’m here.”

“Yes?”

“No need to hesitate, we’re friends, right?”

” ….. ”

Is this what friends do?

Is serving homemade meals to friends if you come to their house a thing friends do?

Is thinking that it’s something anyone wouldn’t normally do just my own biased assumption since I don’t have any friends?

Or is she the strange one after all?

I have no way to verify that, and while I hesitated to respond, Sumire Murasaki quickly started preparations in the kitchen.

I pondered whether to call out to her, but not knowing what to talk about, I just watched her back from a distance.

♡

“…Hehe.”

Those eyes of his are definitely hiding something.

He probably got told something by Saki Mifune.

I kind of have a hunch about it.

Saki Mifune also properly witnessed the scene that day.

And for some reason, maybe she learned the true identity of the person behind Momo-nyan.

Knowing that, she is getting close to him.

For the same reason as me…maybe because she’s fallen for him.

Well, I can understand her feelings, but I absolutely won’t hand him over.

And if she becomes persistent while I try to keep her away, it would be troublesome.

I feel sorry, thinking that maybe Takizawa-kun is being coerced by her about that matter as he, for some reason, is also trying to hide his true identity.

I’ll let her in.

I’ll let her participate in the reading club.

But, I won’t let her have her way.

Otherwise, I’ll do something terrible.

…by the way, I wonder why Takizawa-kun is hiding his true identity?

Ah, could he be worried that if people other than me find out, I’ll become jealous because he’ll be surrounded by admirers?

Hehe, I’m happy.

It must be so.

But it would be bad to waste such consideration from him, so I guess I’ll watch the situation a little more until he reveals himself.

Besides, there is still no evidence.

To be absolutely certain that Takizawa-kun is that person.

I wonder if I should have Misaki Mifune do a job for me?
