Chapter 46

That Friday, at school, the class to first period rings.

As I leave homeroom, trying not to make eye contact with Bucket-sensei, who was scolding a couple of students over a disruption in the class, I was pulled aside in the hallway the moment I passed the doorway.

It was Tsundere-kun.

He seemed fidgety, so that could have only meant one thing.

"Ano...do you have any free time tomorrow?", he asks, looking away with a blush on his face.

I say, "Sure. What's up?".

"I have enough money saved up to buy a phone, a-and, um...", he starts.

"O-Ok, sure. I'll go with~", I try to say.

"It's not like I'm asking you to go shopping with me, or anything, baka. If you want to spend it doing something else, feel free to. I DON'T CARE!", he belts out, then storms off.

"I just said I would...", I mutter, flabbergasted at what just happened.
