I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo Chapter 109: When you fall in love, you need to calm down

Chapter 109: When you fall in love, you need to calm down

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o had never been picky with his food, after all, his motto had always been to eat to live, not live to eat so when Usa said that he was going to treat him, he didn't try to pick the most expensive food in the cafeteria, but the most standard one, which was ramen, to be exact, salt ramen.

When Usa heard s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's order, he sighed in relief, after all, his order wasn't that expensive, and then he also ordered his food too.

Tagami also did the same.

After s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o, Tagami, and Usa got their food, they went to the empty table, sitting together there, but somehow, Tagami and Usa could notice the gazes of the girls on them from time to time, but they weren't stupid enough to think that it was them, but rather, it was because of the guy in front of them.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o sipped the broth of the salt ramen lightly and had to say that the taste was pretty good, and thought that it might be good to come to the cafeteria from time to time. He then looked at Tagami and Usa then asked, "So what do you want to ask me?" He could see Tagami's serious expression and Usa's shy expression, and somehow he could understand what they wanted to ask him, which made him quite helpless, but he didn't blame them, after all, it was normal for a boy in the adolescent to be attracted to the opposite gender.

"Usa, hurry up and tell him," Tagami quickly said.

Usa blushed and he was very shy at that moment. "O - Oga-kun..."

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o shuddered and said, "Just hurry up and say it, it's creepy if you are so shy."

Tagami also shuddered and nodded. "Yeah, I felt like you were confessing to Oga."

"....." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o and Usa wondered whether Tagami could shut up or not?

Usa took a deep breath and nodded. "Then I'll be straight. Oga-kun, I feel like I fell in love."

*Clang!*

"....."

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o, Usa, and Tagami turned their heads and saw a dead fish-eyed young man who seemed to be staring at both s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o and Usa in shock.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o twitched his lips and said, "He fell in love with a girl, not me, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d." He didn't mind cursing this guy, after all, this guy's misunderstanding was very malicious.

"I - I see..." The young man didn't expect s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o to talk with him, but he nodded and somehow sighed in relief. He knew that the three of them might be his undercla.s.smen, but somehow, the normie aura from the three of them was too big for him to say anything, so he could only say sorry, bow his head, then left.

"So who have you fallen with?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked while eating his ramen, didn't care much about the young man with dead fish-eyes before.

Usa also regained his bearing and said, "If I'm not wrong, her name should be Kawai Ritsu, right, Tagami?" He then looked at Tagami since he knew the name of that girl from him.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o then looked at Tagami curiously, wondering how this guy knew Ritsu Kawai.

Tagami noticed s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's gaze and patted his chest proudly. "It might sound quite show off, but I know the name of every beautiful girl in this school."

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o looked at Tagami and wondered why he felt Tagami was like the second male character on the galge whose purpose was to help the protagonist to get the heroines on the story, but he had to admit that he was quite curious about Tagami's information. "You know all the beautiful girls?"

"Of course." Tagami nodded, but then he looked at s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o, giving him a knowing smile, and said, "Don't worry, I won't say a word to Sunohara-san."

"..." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o was speechless and said, "Let's talk about Usa first."

"You're not going to ask me anything?" Tagami was somewhat disappointed since he wanted to show his power.

"No!" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said without hesitation.

Tagami somehow became depressed and continued to eat his lunch.

Usa only smiled and laughed, since he felt that this high school day was quite good since it was so normal unlike his time in middle school when he was called...

Usa shuddered and didn't want to remember his past that much.

"Say, Usa, since when have you fallen in love with Kawai-senpai?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked curiously, wondering when this kid fell for Ritsu.

"Yesterday, when I saw her when she went home with you..." Usa's words then stopped then asked, "Oga-kun, you're not--"

"No, I don't date Kawai-senpai," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said calmly.

"Thanks, G.o.d!" Usa seemed to be very happy that he might kneel down on the shrine for three days and three nights when he heard s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's words. He thought that the ramen was worth it, just by hearing those sentences alone, and he felt very happy.

"..." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o looked at Usa weirdly and asked, "Even if I don't date her, do you think that it is very easy for you to date her?"

"Huh?" Usa was dumbfounded.

Tagami nodded and said, "Usa, you might not know, but that Senpai is a loner, she's very cold, and she doesn't have many friends, are you sure that you like her? She's very intimidating, you know?" When he remembered Ritsu that he had seen yesterday, he felt a bit scared, after all, Ritsu's eyes were very fierce.

"I don't care! I like her!" Usa said without hesitation.

"..." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o stared at Usa and asked, "So what do you want me to do?"

Usa was a bit shy then asked, "Can... Can you introduce her to me?" He knew that the best way for him to get close to Ritsu was from s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's introduction so he hoped that s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o would be able to help him.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o shook his head and said, "It's impossible."

"Huh?!" Usa was dumbfounded.

"Usa, you should first realize whether your feeling is love or not," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said.

"It's love! I fell in love at first sight!" Usa said without hesitation.

"Then can you say that you'll do anything for her?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked.

"Of course!" Usa was full of spirit, thinking that he had really fallen in love.

"Then how about you move to Sakurasou? That way, you can meet her every day," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said simply.

"....." Usa.

"What? You can't?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o asked with a smile.

Tagami nodded and said, "I agree with Oga's words, if you want to make that senior fall for you the best way is for you to move to Sakurasou." Even though this method was a bit hard, after all, the name of Sakurasou was very notorious, even if s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o had told him, that this place was alright if he was told to move there, he didn't want to.

"I...." Usa couldn't make up his decision right away.

"Don't say something like love so lightly, what you feel right now might be a l.u.s.t, impulse, attraction, etc toward her because she's beautiful," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said.

"I....." Usa wasn't sure what to say since s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's words were right, after all, he didn't know Ritsu that well, and he was attracted to her beautiful face.

"Well, besides joining Sakurasou, is there another way? Can you give Usa her contact info, Oga?" Tagami asked.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o shook his head and said, "No, I won't do something like that without her permission, and if I do that, not only you'll be hated, I'll be hated by her too, you should think how awkward it is for me to live with her, after all of that, alright?"

Tagami quickly realized his mistake, nodded, and said, "Sorry, I said too much."

"It's alright if you understand, but still, don't give my number to random girls either," s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o said since he didn't want some random girls to suddenly call his phone.

"You don't need to worry, I have never done all of that," Tagami said without hesitation.

"Really?" s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o stared at Tagami with doubt.

"We - well, some girls asked me for your number, but I have told them I won't give it to them unless they get your permission," Tagami said with a cold sweat.

"That's good, thank you." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o nodded.

Even though Tagami might seem unreliable, in truth, he was quite alright and a good guy, after all, s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o also knew how much Tagami had supported Usa in his love life.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o then looked at Usa, who had been in depressed mode, so he said, "Well, Usa, if you can't move to Sakarasou, then how about you try to join my club?"

"Club?" Usa looked at s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o curiously.

"Yeah, I have joined the literature club, I have also invited Kawai-senpai there, so..."

"I will join!" Usa said without hesitation.

"....." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o.

Unlike moving to Sakurasou, Usa didn't feel any burden to join the literature club, after all, he was also quite interested in the club, and by joining the club, he was sure that there was a chance for him to talk with Ritsu, so he didn't have hesitation.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o nodded and didn't think too much. "Tagami, how about you?"

"No, I still want to go home after school." Tagami rejected s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o's invitation, after all, he wanted to go back right away from the school, and he didn't have that much interest in literature, but then he looked at Usa and asked, "Say, Usa, do you have an interest in literature?"

"No." Usa shook his head.

"....."

"Do you like to read books?"

"No..." Usa answered weakly.

"....."

"Have you read any books lately?" Tagami asked.

"....A textbook?" Usa's sound became weaker and weaker.

"....."

"Just, good luck, alright?" Tagami could only say that at this moment.

"..." Usa.

Usa then looked at s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o and asked, "Oga-kun, do you think that I'll be alright?"

"Just do your best." s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o could only say that, after all, he wasn't sure what to say to Usa at that moment. He wasn't oblivious and could tell that Ritsu had a good opinion about him, which was why, it was quite hard to say that to Usa, who had a feeling toward her, and it was also impossible to say that Ritsu had a good opinion about him since if he said that he might become the most narcissistic guy in the world. He might be handsome, but he didn't believe that he could make all the girls in this world fall for him instantly, since each girl's personality was different and the way to take them down was also different and their taste in men was also different. Some of them were easy, some of them were quite difficult, and as for Ritsu, she might be in the middle of difficulty.

s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o might have decided to become a sc.u.mbag, but it didn't mean that he was going to get all the girls without hesitation, after all, his problem hadn't been solved, and there were a lot of girls that he needed to answer, so even though Ritsu was beautiful and he also often teased her, he didn't really have an idea about her, and even if he had some thought about her, he knew that it was just l.u.s.t, after all, she was a beautiful girl, but even so, he didn't really want to support Usa with his love life since it was very troublesome.

As for the matter of whether Usa could be with Ritsu or not, in truth, he didn't really think too much and it didn't really matter. He knew that it sounded selfish, but he was wondering whether Usa had ever thought that Ritsu might fall for him in the process when Usa asked him for his help.

Looking at Usa, s.h.i.+s.h.i.+o shook his head, smiled inwardly, feeling quite amused since this guy was very innocent, and said, "Well, let's go to the literature club later after school." The way he looked at Usa was like a little innocent bunny who was smiling in front of a hungry lion.

"Yes!" Usa said full of excitement, even though he didn't know what kind of future would await him.
