Chapter 2
Hikigaya Hachiman arrived in class only to hear whispers and stared at by his classmates.
He wondered what he had done this time but decided they are just being idiots believing another baseless rumour and ignored them.
Recess came and he got up to eat his lunch at his secluded spot only to be stopped by Yui.
"Hikki,can we talk?"Yui asked and Hachiman stared behind her where Hayama's clique was observing him.
"Let's go outside first"he motioned her towards the door and they walked out.
"Rikka,are you awake?"Hachiman knocked on the door next to his own room.
After being grilled by the girls about his relationship with her at the Service Club he just wanted to relax at home but he had talk to her first.
The door opened and she looked outside,eyes half closed and visibly annoyed on being disturbed from her slumber.
"It's not evening yet"she told him.
He raised the shopping bag he was hold
"I brought cake"
He tried to appease her and it worked as she let him come in after some hesitation.
They settled down and she took her first bite.
"Well,you're here for a reason right?Out with it"she told him.
He stayed quiet for a moment before speaking.
"I've told some of the kids at school about you.
I just told them you don't go to school."
She raised an eyebrow at him
"Is that all?"
He again paused in contemplation
"When you stopped attending in elementary school there were rumours..."
He clenched his teeth
"When I had to attend middle school on my own I did not talk about you so they wouldn't talk trash and such nonsense.
It's the first time in high school they are asking about..."
"Hold it!"she cut him off.
She sighed and looked at him
"This sucks but don't worry about it"
Hachiman asked"So you are alright with me telling them about your...condition"
She smiled wryly and said
"I don't even remember anyone from elementary school now.
It's up to you what you want to tell them."
They are interrupted by another knock on the door.
"Sis...is brother with you"
Rikka said"We better let Komachi in before she finds out we have been eating cakes without him"
A/N : I made mistakes in first chapter so I rewrote it.
