I want to say is that you should read "A Silent Pain" by Roccus. I just want Naho to be happy.


"Rumi-chan have fun and take a lot of pictures"

"Yes mama," I sadly replied.

…..

"…Not really. I'm not interested in curry." I replied as I run away from him.

I'm already getting bullied by classmates, I don't need you to make it worse. Someone like you who is shiny with that fake smile and well like does know how I feel. I lend on the chicken coop.

"What an idiot…"

I faced the voice. Lending on a tree was a teen. Black messy hair, a strand of hair sticking up. Small black iris, like the eyes of dead fish. A tan plaid shirt that is open to the exposed white t-shirt with a black collar. Cargo like shorts. How he was standing, made him look foolish. I mean do you need to have your arms cross ( I decided to use volume 5 of the manga comic, to describe Hachiman).

"They really are a bunch of fools" I replied.

I hate it. I was their friend…

"Well, that's what the majority of the world is like. It is a good thing you realized that early." Said the teenager.

He must be that type that acts cool and mysteries. He must be a loser.

"Aren't you part of the majority?" I asked.

"Hey, don't underestimate me. I'm so outstanding, I'm capable of ending up alone even when I'm part of the majority." He replied.

"I think you are the only one who'd say something like that like they're proud of it. You're taking me past exasperation and into contempt." Said a female voice.

I faced the voice. Standing there is a beautiful teenage girl with waist-length black hair which is tied with two red ribbons by each shoulder and angular blue eyes. Her slender body was adorned with a white blouse that has a frill-like pattern on each shoulder running down the front of it. A black top underneath the blouse. She has blue jeans with a black belt and a pair of sneakers.

"If you're past exasperation, would you not normally end up at respect…?" Said the boy.

I'm not sure I understand them but I do know that they understand why I'm alone. I have to ask.

"Name," I asked.

"Huh?" He replied.

Was it that hard to understand what I'm asking for?

"Name what?" He asked.

"I'm asking for your name. Most people would get that." I asked.

"You offer your own name first before you ask someone else's." Said the Slender beauty with a glare.

I find that a bit problematic, she is scary.

"Tsurumi Rumi," I replied.

"I'm Yukinoshita Yukino. And over there is…

Hiki…

Hikiga…

Hikiguana-kun, was it?" Said the Slender beauty.

"Hey, how do you know my fourth-grade nickname?" Said the boy.

"I'm not an iguana" Whisper the boy.

"…It's Hikigaya Hachiman" He said.

"And that is Yuigahama Yui." He said as he pointed.

I turn my head. Walking toward us was a cute girl, she has fair skin, loose shoulder-length, chestnut-brown hair. She has a loose side bun, she has a pink visor on. A heart charm on a gleaming necklace. She has on a transparent pink and peach stripe top that falls above her bellybutton. A black tank top underneath it and cover her bellybutton. She was flashy so her midriff was showing. She has black short-shorts that show plenty of her thighs.

"Huh? What's up?" She said.

"… Oh!"

"That's right. I'm Yuigahama Yui. You're Tsurumi Rumi-chan, right? Nice to meet you." Said Yuigama-san.

Yuigahama-san is different from those two. She is cheerful, she is like the rest of them.

"Like, you two seem different," I said to the other two.

I feel the mood has changed or at least their eyes change.

"Not like those people…"

We were friends, we bully others then go on to the next girl.

"I'm different too…"

Why?

"…From those people," I cried out.

The silence was interrupted by her.

"Different how?" Asked Yuigahama-san.

"They're all just kids. Well, I think I did fine with them for a while…"

Why target…

"But it all seemed dumb, so I stopped. I think I do just fine on my own." I said.

Why target me…

"…B-but…

… I think the memories of your elementary school friendships are pretty important." Said Yuigahama-san.

I-I-I also thought that but now it is all different.

"I don't need those memories…

…Once I get into middle school, I can just make friends with the kids who come in from other schools," I replied.

My only hope.

"Sadly, that is not going to happen." Said Yukinoshita.

The feeling of being submerged in a frozen lake hit me hard.

"The children in your elementary school will all go onto the same middle school, won't they? So it will be no different. Those 'kids from other schools' will be with them." Claimed Yukinoshita-san.

I open to the truth that she speaks of and yet I see the darkness that started to engulf me. An endless cycle… Why?

"… I knew it…

I've been such an idiot…" I replied weakly.

Stupid, stupid. Why?

"What happened?" Asked Yuigahama-san.

"It's happened a few times. Someone would be left out, and then we'd stop talking to them. But eventually it always ends, and then we'd talk again…"

I can see a flashback as clear as day. It was of me and my friends…

"It was almost like a game. Someone would come up with the idea, and then we'd just sort of start doing it…"

She was sitting there alone but when I blink I saw myself alone at a desk.

"And then a girl I talked to a lot got left out…"

I should have not done that.

"… And I sort of stayed away from her, but…"

No, hold on! We can't cry, we can't show weakness. Hold your tears in Rumi.

"…Then suddenly I was the one. And I used to talk to her about a lot of stuff too…" I uttered.

Sorry, mama. I don't think I can take pictures. Not happy times. I'm so sorry. You got this camera for me…

Sorry…

Looking into the distant sky, I uttered my displeased, "Even in middle school…

…It may end up like this again."

…..

Meeting him, I didn't know my life will change. His action toward my ex-friends, it was like death itself. He was able to play around with the human's emotion. I was scared of him and yet I was awestruck. This darkness in the form of a human that calls himself Hikigaya-kun. He was definitely different from the rest. He didn't want us to make up but rather he destroy our bonds. I rescue my friends but at what cause? It was our friendship… I don't think we can continue. It was because we all shown our dark self on that trail. The evil in the human heart. It was exposed, and in children too. Society sees us as pure children and yet this was proven wrong by him. He was the turning point in our lives. Do I dare to say that I admire him? The thrill of the hunt they say. Is it the same? Is that why I find him interesting? Is this really admiration?

His name was Hachiman…


Nothing much to say. Another introduction for a character. It was hard to write this since I'm a 29 years old male. Still working on my "Fangirl in the OreGairu" world storyline. Let say I was going to hold off and release it on April fools next year but I decided I'll try to finish this story on next April fools. I will end this volume 12? Or at least season 2 episode 13 is where I'll end this.

Not a spoiler but I'll give you a hint Fangirl like BL, yuri, and incest. And this causes many hardships for Hikigaya-kun.
