"What's wrong with being selfish? Isn't love meant for both parties to treat each other wholeheartedly? It's Kasumigaoka-senpai you who have the problem, right—!"

"This is modern society. Why do you accept that many people socialize together? I really don't understand what you are thinking at all... This kind of thing is simply too strange-!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

Silence dominated the living room, and a tense atmosphere enveloped everyone, making everyone feel dry.

Hasumi Kanoko and Eiri looked at each other, and the sound of tragic artillery fire seemed to rumble in their minds.

Shiyu was silent for a while, then spoke again with an expressionless face.

"That's just your idea, Kato-san. We're not forcing you to do anything. If you don't want to, you can just leave Yu-chan like this, but you chose another path, so we can only treat you as

enemy."

"But, Kasumigaoka-senpai... in the games we make, although there are many female characters, there will always be only one person who can be with the male protagonist in the end. This is an absolute setting."

"That's why you don't want to give up the leading role to anyone? No matter if the other person is an elder, a senior, or a close friend?"

"Um……"

Hui sighed and agreed. There was a firmness in her weak voice, and she said from the bottom of her heart:

"I think this is the nature of the heroine. No matter how much she values ​​her friends and partners, when friendship and love are placed on both sides of the balance, she must choose the male protagonist..."

Her eyes were slightly moist, her cheeks were tinged with crimson, and her delicate lips opened and closed slightly, inexplicably emitting a dazzling light like a heroine.

There was a moment of confusion in Shiyu's eyes, and she felt a little distracted by the amorous feelings she inadvertently revealed. The other two people also had similar expressions to hers.

She calmed down, cursed secretly as a vixen, and then deliberately put on a serious face to break the atmosphere.

"Are you still insisting on this statement? I might as well tell you that Yu-chan has accepted Sawamura now?"

"Eh?"

Hui's body trembled imperceptibly, and her eyes subconsciously focused on Eiri, "Yusuke, did you accept Eiri...?"

Yinglili was a little at a loss about this, she blushed and lowered her head so as not to look at her.

In contrast, Shiyu declared happily: "In this case, your wishful thinking will almost come to nothing, Kato-kun~"

"Senior Kasumigaoka..."

Hui murmured, suddenly thinking of the scene on Mount Fuji, and the color drained from her face.

Shiyu keenly captured this change, and his smile became more and more proud.

"Oh~ you look shaken? Oh, no wonder you are so panicked.

From the moment Sawamura and I met, I felt the destiny from Yuu-chan;

Xiaoyanai went through a lot of setbacks before he and Yu-chan became successful;

Even Benisaka Akane and Shinjou-san have their own opportunities.

Compared to us, Kato-san, there is absolutely no drama between you and Yuu-chan~"

'This is already a one-sided bullying...'

Seeing Kanoko thinking this, Hassan winked at Shiyu desperately, trying to stop her from beating the drowned dog.

at this time--

"What does that have to do with me...?"

Hui picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, then deliberately spoke in a calm tone.

"To everyone, Yusuke may be a unique and different person, but to me, even if he is not that special... rather, I actually don't want him to be that special at all..."

She stared down at the tea cup, trying her best to suppress the emotions surging inside her. Her eyes began to heat up and her voice trembled slightly.

"You may not be able to accept it, you may be disgusted with me, but... what does this have to do with me -!"

Shiyu couldn't help but shrink back. What she was going to say was stuck in her throat, so she could only let Hui continue.

"I never thought that Yusuke had to be special. He didn't need to be so handsome, good at sports, or good at studying... I just wanted him to be ordinary..."

"So, Yusuke... Yusuke... he is my only Yusuke. Others... I don't care about so much——!"

Along with the suddenly raised voice, the long-suppressed emotions burst out at this moment, and mixed with sobs, rushed out of the girl's mouth.

There was silence all around, everyone was dumbfounded watching Hui's sudden outburst and loss of voice.

"Ah ha ha ha ha ha……"

Hui smiled softly, somewhat masochistically, and her tears fell down her face like broken beads, causing ripples on the calm water of the teacup.

"I'm sorry... I still said something ugly... Well, uh-huh, uh-huh..."

Her shoulders were shaking, her nasal sounds and tears were swelling as she sobbed, and her voice was full of loneliness and sadness, but she still continued to speak.

"Maybe I...can't really feel the fate from Yusuke like everyone else. Maybe there just isn't that kind of drama between me and him..."

"But... I just like him like that. I liked him long before you met him..."

"Obviously what I pursue is just this kind of ordinary happiness... Why do I have to endure those setbacks? Why... I have to watch Yusuke accept you one by one! Wuwu... Wuwu..."

Tears welled up in a steady stream from his eyes, which had already exceeded the level of sobbing.

Kei just cried and cried without caring about her personal image, venting her complaints that were terrible in every sense of the word.

Faced with her crying, everyone was a little at a loss.

Seeing Kanoko's wry smile, Hassan felt sympathy gradually welling up in her heart and stopped talking.

Eiriri's eyes widened in astonishment, her mouth opened, and she swallowed unconsciously. She suddenly remembered that Sawamura Sayuri had reminded her that the girls around Kato Yusuke were too stimulating.

Even Hui, who was usually so light-hearted, now exuded such obsession that it was so heavy that it made people feel suffocated, and it really made people dare not accept it...

Suddenly, Shiyu sneered and broke the silence.

"I didn't expect you to confess to this extent. According to your thoughts, Kato-kun, you will never win. No matter how much Yuu-chan likes you, he will never give up on us."

"There's no need for Kasumigaoka-senpai to worry about that kind of thing..."

"Tsk, your arrogant attitude is that you think that others are not of concern, and you firmly believe that Yuu-chan will choose you in the end?"

"..."

Hui silently wiped away her tears and softened her attitude a little.

"Sorry, let's put that kind of thing aside for now... Since the purpose of our gathering today is for the future, then I want to discuss something with you."

She took a deep breath to calm herself down and solemnly made a proposal that was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Senior Kasumigaoka, I hope you can serve as a representative and consider joining forces with me."
