Chapter 7
"You're disgusting"I told him.
"And creepy"Komachi chimed in.
"Not you too!"Hachiman groaned.
After they had returned from their summer camp,I made him tell me everything in order to confirm what he said last night.
Komachi also filled in some details but their authenticity was in doubt.
He really convinced his classmates to nearly scared to death some elementary school girls in order to make them turn against each other so they would stop bullying this Rumi girl.
I had joked about his twisted mindset but this was something else,it was really sinister and well thought out.
I didn't care about whatever his logic was and I just told him that I'll go the theatre... alone.
They needed their rest anyway and I'll just watch what others were doing to entertain myself.
I walked my way to my destination listening to my favourite tunes,noticing not many people were around at this time.
I chose an action flick and took a seat at the back.
I munched on the food I smuggled in,the movie wasn't half bad this time.
What did bother me was the curly brown haired girl sitting in front of me talking and laughing with other girls with the most obnoxious voice I've ever heard.
"Dayone!"she said that a lot.
I swear she sounded like someone from the brain-dead teen dramas no one finds funny.
Despite this inconvenience,I did enjoy being here.
Getting cooped up in my room all day gets boring,which reminded me clean it up as it was starting to smell.
"Rikka?"
Huh?Did someone call me?
I turned around and saw...I had no idea who she was.
A girl with short black hair around my age was looking at me.
"Eh?A friend yours Akane"a brown haired girl came over.
Wait,that was the obnoxious girl.
Did she overhear me or listened to my thoughts?
"It's really you.
Do remember me?I'm Akane.
We were in elementary school together in same class"
...What?
I had no contact with anyone ever since I was forced to leave school and virtually became a shut-in.
No one bothered to ask about me from what Hachiman told me,as if I was never there.
I'm not gonna entertain a random person because she happened to see my face before.
Besides,I really need to use a restroom.
"That's my name.
Do you need something"
She seemed to be caught offguard at my cold tone but I don't remember anyone from school anymore.
What's even the point of remembering it now?
Her group of friends called her and when she turned around and walked away.
I didn't hear call after me.
Good,at least people wouldn't bother me about part of my life I no longer care to remember.
