The mountain peaks are probably worn down...
"…no!"
As those terrifying fantasies flashed through her mind, Fumino Furuhashi turned pale. She gritted her teeth, and a decision gradually formed in her heart, which then became firm.
Nothing could sway Rizu's mind, so she decided to protect her safety and fulfill her vow to Uncle Ogata...
I have no choice but to sacrifice my innocence!
……
ten minutes later.
"boom"
The bathroom door was pushed open, and Hayakawa walked out, drying his hair and panting.
I'm all refreshed after taking a shower.
Before he could even reach the living room, Ogata Rizu suddenly appeared in front of him, her small face serious, and said, "Hayakawa, sleep with me tonight!"
"???"
"wrong!"
Fumino Furuhashi, blushing, jumped out from another direction and blocked Hayakawa's path: "Why don't you...sleep with me!"
"..."
"Uh… yeah."
Hayakawa stared blankly at the two women in front of him, completely bewildered.
What's going on here...? What exactly happened during the short time I was taking a shower?
"Please come with me!"
Rizu Ogata looked serious, as if she were about to conduct some academic research.
"No, please come with me!"
Fumino Furuhashi's face was flushed, but her expression remained resolute.
This is a battlefield.
"Um…"
Hayakawa narrowed his eyes slightly, a thoughtful look flashing in them.
……
Five minutes later, in Hayakawa's room.
The moon is bright and the stars are few; crows fly south. The light from outside the window flows like water onto the floor of the room, and a tranquil and cool atmosphere slowly spreads, making one feel drowsy.
Ascending the steps by moonlight, one can see three figures lying quietly on the bed in the bedroom. Two of them are calm and indifferent, while the other's face and body are extremely stiff.
"I don't know what you guys are up to all of a sudden,"
Hayakawa lay in the middle of the bed, looking somewhat puzzled, but still said nonchalantly, "But my bed is quite big, it can easily fit three people. Are you all satisfied now?"
"Yes, that puts my mind at ease."
Ogata Rizu, who was next to him, nodded with a faint smile: "It's good that your bed is big, Hayakawa. You're so lucky to have such a big bed."
"I specifically bought the big one when I first bought it because it's very comfortable to sleep in."
"Oh, that's pretty good. I'd like to buy a bigger bed for my room, but unfortunately, it doesn't fit."
"Is this so..."
Fumino Furuhashi: "..." (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the previous sentences.)
The two were talking very close to each other, while the girl lying on the other side of Hayakawa had empty eyes, holding the blanket in front of her with both hands, and breathing air mechanically.
How could it have turned out like this?!
She clearly wanted Hayakawa to either choose her or be with Riko, so that at least she could say she had tried to save them, and even if she didn't succeed, it would at least ease her guilt. How did it end up with her and Riko falling into a hellish abyss together?
Damn it... why did Hayakawa have to buy such a big bed? It's big enough to comfortably fit three people.
Did you think about how it would be useful someday when you bought it?
"hiss…"
Fumino Furuhashi suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, and looking at Hayakawa's face beside her, she also felt that he was unfathomable.
Then he wouldn't be a scumbag anymore, but a forward-thinking scumbag who plans ahead!
"Should we draw the curtains?"
Hayakawa thought for a moment, then suddenly brought up the topic of the embroidered shirt.
"Let's pull it up."
Rizu Ogata glanced at the bright moonlight outside the window. Although some people like some light when they sleep, others feel that the bright moonlight will affect their sleep, so it's better to turn it off.
"Ah."
Hayakawa got up from the bed, walked to the window and drew the curtains, instantly plunging the entire room into complete darkness.
Fumino Furuhashi felt a chill run down her spine as she felt the bed vibrating beside her. When Hayakawa lay down, her heart pounded so hard she could feel it herself.
"that…"
Fumino Furuhashi paused for a moment, then suddenly said casually, "Hayakawa-kun, how about we switch seats?"
"No."
Before Hayakawa could speak, Ogata Riju preemptively refused, saying with some dissatisfaction, "I came here intending to sleep next to Hayakawa. If you two switch places, I'll be sleeping next to Fumino, so what's the point?"
Chapter 594 Hayakawa's Promise
That's exactly why I'm unwilling.
Fumino Furuhashi's lips twitched slightly. The thought of Hayakawa next to Riju Ogata made her uneasy, as if something terrible would happen if she fell asleep.
"..."
Fumino Furuhashi remained silent, sighing inwardly.
It looks like I'll just have to stay up a little longer. As long as I don't sleep, and whenever they want to do something, I just need to make a soft sound to stop them, and that way I can have a peaceful night.
Having made up her mind, Fumino Furuhashi turned her head to the side and pretended to be asleep, but actually her eyes were wide open, staring at the window.
She wanted to have a good competition with these two to see who could stay up all night longer!
however…
"Good night, Hayakawa."
"OK, good night."
After the two people next to her finished exchanging greetings, they fell silent. Then, not long after, Ogata Riju's even breathing resumed.
Fumino Furuhashi: "..."
Has Riko fallen asleep so quickly?
You're not just pretending to be asleep, are you?
But judging from her appearance, it doesn't seem like she's faking it... Didn't we already agree to do this and that tonight? How did she fall asleep so quickly?
Am I just overthinking things? Riko simply wanted to sleep in Hayakawa's room and experience what it's like to lie next to a guy. She didn't actually plan to do anything, and Hayakawa felt the same way, otherwise she wouldn't have fallen asleep so easily.
"..."
On the surface, Fumino Furuhashi remained calm, but in reality, she was lost in confusion.
At this moment, Furuhashi realized a fact: it seemed that only she cared about this aspect, while Hayakawa and Ogata Rizu had never thought about it at all. In other words, they were both innocent, while the truly lewd one was someone else.
Fumino Furuhashi: "..."
Her face gradually flushed red as her cheeks turned crimson. A profound sense of shame overwhelmed her, and tears welled up in her eyes.
What am I even thinking? ...I'm the only one who takes these things seriously.
"Well…"
Fumino Furuhashi bit her lower lip to keep herself from making a sound, but her shoulders were still trembling slightly.
"Ancient bridge..."
A voice suddenly came from behind me: "What's wrong?"
Fumino Furuhashi looked blank for a moment, then slowly turned around and looked at Hayakawa.
"...You're not asleep?"
Fumino Furuhashi remained silent for a long time before looking at Hayakawa and saying something.
"Not yet." (Qi Ersan Lengsi)
Hayakawa gazed at the old bridge, speaking softly, clearly not wanting to disturb Ogata Riju, who was fast asleep behind her.
"…oh."
Fumino lowered her head to avoid his eyes and changed the subject, saying, "Then go to sleep quickly, we have to get up early tomorrow morning."
"You're free tomorrow morning, so you don't need to get up early,"
Hayakawa calmly replied, "As for me, you don't need to worry. No matter what time it is, I always get up in the morning without fail."
Fumino Furuhashi puffed out her cheeks slightly and said irritably, "I told you to go to bed early, so go to bed early. Even if your biological clock can wake you up, you'll still feel tired all day."
“Okay.” Hayakawa didn’t say anything in rebuttal, but instead reached out and placed her hand on Furuhashi’s soft face.
"What are you doing..." Fumino Furuhashi quickly tilted her head to avoid his hand; her face was so hot right now, she didn't want Hayakawa to notice.
"Ancient bridge".
Hayakawa thought for a moment, then asked seriously, "Is it because you don't want me and Ogata to sleep in the same bed that you're so obstructing us?"
"...I don't care about your business at all."
Fumino Furuhashi paused for a moment, then said something that didn't reflect her true feelings.
When Ogata Riju asked her if she was jealous, Furuhashi Fumino suddenly felt a sense of panic and even began to doubt herself.
Was Fumino Furuhashi really trying so hard to stop Ogata Riju from sharing a bed with Hayakawa just to protect Riju, as she claimed? She wasn't quite sure herself... The only thing she was certain of was that when Riju said she wanted to sleep in Hayakawa's room, her first thought was—no. It was this subconscious reaction that led her to stop her, ultimately resulting in her now lying in bed with Riju herself.
She was indeed jealous, jealous of Rizu… Furuhashi Fumino had this feeling in her heart, but she was unwilling to admit it, because it would mean that she was admitting that she liked Hayakawa, and that there was a gap in her friendship with Ogata Rizu.
Do I like Hayakawa? ... Maybe, perhaps, possibly... Well, I can't deny it anymore. We've kissed and hugged, and now we're lying in the same bed. Besides, there were even more outrageous things that happened before. If it weren't for that sudden phone call from Mimi-senpai, I might not be a girl anymore.
If it weren't for a boy she liked, Fumino Furuhashi wouldn't act this way.
But even though it's the most youthful and beautiful time of my life in high school, I've fantasized about romance, met a boy I like, and made like-minded best friends. These should be two happy things, so why am I so conflicted?
"..."
Gu Qiao's eyes gradually reddened, and tears slowly streamed down her face.
The element of love is possessiveness. The purpose of confessing is to possess the other person exclusively. However, she doesn't want to share Hayakawa with anyone else, nor does she want to lose Riko, her best friend. This agonizing choice constantly confronts her, and Furuhashi Fumino can only run away, unable to make a decision. It's truly heartbreaking...
"Fumino."
Hayakawa reached out and gently embraced the girl in front of him. He felt that her body was light, like a wisp of light cloud, which could be blown away by a gust of wind. She was fragile and easily broken.
Don't think about anything.
At that moment, a flame ignited in Hayakawa's heart. He held Fumino Furuhashi in his arms and made a vow: "Just entrust everything to me. Trust me, I will make you happy."
Fumino Furuhashi: "..."
I believe you... Yeah, right! You're clearly a total scumbag who's been cheating on multiple women. Don't try to act like those innocent male leads in East Asian dramas!
Don't think that suddenly calling my name will overload my brain. I'm not that easy to handle, and this should have been done a long time ago, okay?
Fumino Furuhashi rolled her eyes, feeling that her pure love had been insulted. However, she did not choose to struggle, after all, Rizu Ogata was in the same bed, and what if she woke her up?
Fumino Furuhashi looked up at Hayakawa from her arms and saw something burning in the boy's eyes, something called determination, or rather, conviction, which made Furuhashi slightly lost in thought.
Even with all the nagging and speculation, I still can't trust him. After all, happiness is never something that can be easily attained.
But at least there is still plenty of time, and we can wait.
As Fumino Furuhashi thought this, she gently closed her eyes.
