Chapter 61

"Let me go, asshole!" Tomboy-kun screamed in anger.

I held him up to the side of a building by both arms as people passed by, exchanging worried glances.

"YOU are the asshole! What the hell is your problem lately?" I roar in indignation.

He looks away with a huff, either confident that I wouldn't hit him, or unaware of the position he was in. Both theories were enough for me to shake him in a burst of anger.

A vein popped in his head as he recoiled against the wall, impact strong enough to leave a mark, but not a lasting one.

I didn't want to hurt him, but I wanted answers.

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, MAN!?" he screams as he frantically kicks his legs to wriggle loose.

(It's a good thing I'm holding him high enough from the ground. Knowing him, if he was even able to touch it, he would probably be halfway across Japan by now.) I think to myself, also fearing he might rip my arms clean off while doing so.

I take a deep breath, and proceed to calm myself down once again.

"Look. I just want to know why you're acting like this. You already know that Miri-chan and I are in a relationship now, so why are you still mad?" I ask, with a determined look on my face.

Gritting his teeth, Tomboy-kun had enough.

"BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T TELL ME! ME, YOUR FRIEND!" he screeches in a tone that carried throughout the plaza, tanned face redder than bean paste, and even more people onlooking.

Shy-kun, alongside Cringe-kun were both on the other side of the shopping center when they had heard the scream echoing.

"What was that..." Shy-kun, who had looked up towards the other side, said in deep concern.

Cringe-kun, walking towards him after having asked the fifteenth person if they had picked up a wallet anywhere in the place, said "Whatever it is, it's not our problem. We just have to rin...dez...vus?"

"Rendezvous, senpai." Shy-kun says, matter of factly.

"Rondayvoo, yeah. That. We have to do that in a hour. How do know words like that so easily?" the blonde baka remarks with a dumbfounded look on his face.

"Tee-hee!" Shy-kun giggles with his tongue sticking out. His French courses paid off.

Then, remembering the voice, he traced the source to have sounded like Tomboy-kun, and Tomboy-kun is with...

"I...I'm sorry, senpai!" Shy-kun says as he darts off, worried.

"Oi!" Cringe-kun calls after him, reaching a hand out in protest.

No response as the beautiful blue bunny darts off.

Letting out a sigh, Cringe-kun says "Tenchan won't like this, but oh, well..." as he sees another person walking by.

"Hey, have you seen a wallet, sir?" Cringe-kun asks.

"Yeah I see one every day: mine." the person says as he walks off.

A wave of dread washed over my widened eyes, as my face turned pale and my arms shook, slowly lowering him down.

I slowly walk off, saying nothing as I trudge away slowly, further into the plaza.

Tomboy-kun runs after me.

"Hey! We're not done! Where do you think you're going!?"
