Chapter 50: Asanagi Umi and Amami Yuu (2)
It was in middle school that I noticed something strange in our group.
It had been a few years since Yuu joined our group, and as I expected, she quickly became the center of the class with me. Rather, she became the center of the whole grade.
I had confidence in my looks, but compared to Yuu, I fell short, so it was a given.
I wasn’t jealous or anything though, that didn’t bother me much.
“Oh, it’s Umi~! Good morning, Umi!”
“Woah–! Hey hey, why are you jumping on me like that? What are you, a dog? …Well, you’re cute, so if you let me hug you, I’ll forgive you~”
“Ehehe ~ Thank you, Umi.”
We were now middle schoolers, but Yuu and I were as close as ever. Unlike back when she was in grade school, she had stopped being shy in front of everyone. She was still clingy to me, though.
Her smile was the same as always.
