Ⅲ／A Past That Seems Deeply Connected to Their Fate
 

 
Recess time arrived.
 
“Izumii-samaaa~♡”
 
Meina, who had secured the seat next to him, called out to Izumi with a cheerful grin.
 
“W-What now? What do you want this time?”
 
Izumi was already on edge.
 
And for good reason. After morning homeroom, he had endured an experience beyond words. To put it bluntly—he had almost been murdered by the guys for being too serious.… Read more

TLNOTE : like previous volume, the prologue is in the middle of the book
 

 
Prologue / The Girl Who Can Say “I Love You” Properly… Returns!?
 

That morning was peaceful.
 
At least on the surface, Izumi’s school life was peaceful.
 
…But the one who always shakes things up is usually this guy.
 
“Hey, Izumi! Did you hear!? There’s a new girl coming to our class!”
 
The one causing a ruckus the moment school started was Satou.… Read more

Amane’s feelings? Safe.

Izumi’s stomach? Safe.

A perfect, conflict-free resolution.
 
But Amane—
 
“Eh…?”
 
—looked utterly heartbroken.
 
“W-What? What’s wrong?”
 
“Um…”
 
Fidgeting in embarrassment, she dropped a bombshell.
 
“I-I made a different lunch for you… for later…?”
 
“Are you trying to turn me into a pro wrestler!??”
 
He was way past the age of “Eat well and grow big!”
 
In the end, under the weight of everyone’s stares, he picked up the chopsticks.… Read more

Ⅱ／A Girl Who Can Properly Say “I Love You” – Daily Life
 

Let me tell you about Sumie Izumi.
 
A second-year high school student in Tokyo. Due to certain circumstances, he’s also a struggling student living alone.
 
His most notable trait? He’s good-looking.
 
Well-proportioned eyes, nose, and facial structure. Not quite a “picture-perfect pretty boy,” but undeniably the image of a handsome young man. He pays attention to his appearance, and his refined upbringing shows in his mannerisms.… Read more

Let’s recap what happened so far!
 
Sumie Izumi is a slightly flirtatious, handsome high school boy.

Ayame Ayakoji.
 
A second-year student at the academy.
 
Ever since her first year, she has been a member of the library committee, often spending her after-school hours doing committee duties in the library.
 
The reason Ayame continues being a library committee member…is simply because she loves books, of course.… Read more

 
As usual, Izumi was on the receiving end of a harsh counterattack, fleeing towards the committee room.
 
As he went down the stairs from the rooftop, he deeply regretted his earlier actions.
 
(I really should’ve just said it normally! But then again, that would’ve been embarrassing too…)
 
Needless to say, the entire class was in an uproar later during the afternoon lessons over tales of Izumi agonizing alone in the hallway.
 
…After Izumi left the rooftop.… Read more

Epilogue / There is No End to Feelings of Love
 

It was the start of a new week.
 
During the lunch break, Izumi Sumie was eating lunch on the rooftop.
 
…Well, he had been eating, but.
 
“Here, Izumi-kun, ahh?”
 
At this point, having Nanao Nanase beside him seemed to defy the laws of the universe.
 
The egg roll that she offered with her chopsticks…the sweet one absolutely laden with sugar…Izumi hesitated for a moment before putting it in his mouth.… Read more

“Hey. Why did you help me?”
 
It was a natural question.
 
At that time, she had no connection to Izumi. She didn’t even know him. They weren’t even in the same class.
 
Amane was prepared for some kind of demand from her—.
 
[Amane must be seriously working hard as a model, right? It’s ridiculous for someone like that to get hurt over something as trivial as studying.]
 
After saying that, Izumi looked flustered and put on a serious expression.… Read more

In the makeshift waiting area divided by partitions, Amane sat blankly on a chair. She held her smartphone in one hand, but her mind seemed to be elsewhere.
 
(I wonder what’s wrong with Amane…)
 
While she enjoyed modeling itself, she simply didn’t seem able to get into the groove today.
 
Then the photographer poked his head through the partition.
 
“Amane-chan, you good to go?”
 
“Y, Yes!”
 
She hurriedly headed to the shoot location.… Read more
