In My Second Life, I'll Do Everything To Win You Over—My Beloved Childhood Friend Will Never Be Given To Anyone Else - Episode 4

Before stepping into the classroom, I took a deep breath.

Because that man I absolutely hate is in this classroom.

“Momoka, are you nervous?”

Nagisa smiled and patted my back.

“It’s okay. We’re in the same class! You can relax, right?”

“……Yeah.”

I have never been the type to fit into everyone’s circle.

But Nagisa always took my hand like that.

A child who is bright and dazzling like the sun.

Just being next to you always makes me feel warm inside.

And without Nagisa, my world becomes pitch black.

Nagisa opens the classroom door.

I quickly found that man.

Hair with a similar light pigmentation to Nagisa’s, gentle-looking eyes, thin lips.

Objectively speaking, he has the appearance worthy of being called a handsome man.

Nagisa said she didn’t choose based on looks, but she wouldn’t date someone who wasn’t her type either.

Unlike Yuki, who has a gentle-looking face, I have a somewhat stern face.

Somehow, I feel a bit anxious.

“Um, our seats are…”

Nagisa is checking her seat while looking at the seating chart posted on the blackboard.

Even though I remember it without checking, it would be suspicious to sit down without looking at the seating chart.

“We’re sitting a bit far apart, aren’t we?”

Relying on memory, I quickly found the two seats and pointed while saying.

I am by the window, and Nagisa is by the hallway.

Although we share the commonality of being in the third row from the front, we are too far apart to talk during class.

“But, I’ll go to Momoka’s seat during break.”

“I’ll go!”

I reflexively replied loudly.

“What’s wrong?”

“Sorry, I kinda got really into it.”

Actually, the seat next to me is Yuki Kusakabe.

I don’t want them to get close to each other.

The reason they started talking in the previous life was because Kusakabe sat next to me.

I won’t make the same mistake again.

This time, I’ll go to Nagisa’s seat and do everything I can to prevent any contact between the two of them.

♡

As soon as I sat down, Kusakabe called out to me.

“Since we’re sitting next to each other, nice to meet you.”

Both your voice and your smile are infuriating. I feel like I could just punch you right now.

But.

“Yeah, nice to meet you.”

I forced a smile and stared intently at Kusakabe.

I don’t want to bring Nagisa and Kusakabe closer together.

For that, it would definitely be better to do it this way.

“I was pretty nervous, but… the person next to me seemed nice, so I felt relieved, maybe.”

Kusakabe’s eyes widen in surprise.

But after that, Kusakabe wore a silly grin.

“Hey, I’m Yuki Kusakabe.”

“I am Igarashi Momoka.”

“Once again, nice to meet you, Igarashi-san.”

“Um, excuse me… if it’s okay, could you call me by my first name too? I’m not really used to being called by my last name.”

I felt a chill while talking. But this should be the right thing to do.

Before Nagisa gets close to him, I’ll get close to him.

And then, they make me fall in love with them.

If that’s the case, Nagisa shouldn’t fall in love with this man.

“Got it. Nice to meet you, Momoka-chan.”

“Yeah, nice to meet you, Yuki-kun.”

Absolutely, I won’t let Nagisa be with someone like you.

While smiling cheerfully, I repeatedly punched Kusakabe in my mind.
