For Some Reason, My Ex-girlfriend, Who Lost Interest in Me, and My Current Girlfriend, Whom I’ve Kno

“Nee~, Sho-chan. Are you free after school today? I have something important to tell you.”

( ( ( (Something important to tell!?) ) ) )

Shota Komori had now become the center of attention.

The classmates couldn’t take their eyes off Mayuka Takamine’s every move.

Of course, this invitation concerned–

(Ehh… Something important!?)

That’s right. Shizuku Natsukawa. She, too, was curious about Mayuka Takamine’s words and actions.

(…Come to think of it, Takamine-san must be waiting for a reply to her confession… Does that mean this is a reminder!? Wh-What should I do? If Shota-kun agrees to it–)

Natsukawa pondered.

(–I don’t know what to do in this situation. I guess I should interfere… No, I’m not his girlfriend, if I did that, everything would be over. Ah, Mou, I don’t know anymore! If only I could summon Kengo at a time like this… A-Anyway, I have to follow them!)

☆ Mayuka Takamine ☆

I decided to invite Komori to a coffee shop.

I can’t talk about stalkers in the classroom, no matter how much I want to.

The trouble is this Natsukawa b*****d. She followed us as a matter of course.

But as expected, she’s worried about being exposed, so she’s sitting far from us.

Well, if she was that far away, she wouldn’t be able to hear our conversation.

I’m going to ask for a fake relationship, but I don’t want Natsukawa to find out about it.

In fact, I would have preferred a closed room, but if it was at Komori’s house, there’s a chance his parents would overhear. On the other hand, my room is also out of the question. I guess I don’t have a choice.

“So Mayu-nee, what’s the important thing you wanted to say?”

Komori looked somewhat nervous.

Well, I guess that’s what happens when the person who confessed to you said, “I have something important to tell you.”

I quickly decided to get down to business.

“Actually, I have a favor to ask of you, Sho-chan…”

“A favor to ask?”

“Yeah. Actually, I’m a victim of a stalker.”

Komori’s expression changed from nervous to shocked.

“Eh, ehh!? What do you mean, stalker, Mayu-nee!?”

“The reason I transferred to this school–is to escape from a stalker.”

From this point on, I told Komori the story I had devised before going to bed.

Here’s a summary.

● I treated everyone with equality.

● There was no exception to this, even for shady guys who were considered creepy by girls.

● That’s why there were people who misunderstood that ‘Takamine-san might like me’ just by talking to me.

● Normally, they’d give up when I rejected their confession, but this guy kept coming after me no matter how many times I rejected him.

● Then, he became a stalker.

● After consulting with my parents, I changed schools, but the nightmare never ends.

● Hidden photos arrived at my new house.

● Of course, I complained to the police right away, but they said they couldn’t do anything unless I was harmed.

● I want Komori to pretend to be my boyfriend in order to make this stalker give up on Mayuka Takamine.

Well, as you can imagine, I can’t just tell him like this, so I had to choose my words.

After explaining the whole story, I said,

“So, please. Will you be my lover?” (T/N: New formatting someone suggested. I’ll edit previous chapters when I have the time and mood.)

To be honest, this is where it gets difficult.

After all, for Komori, I’ve become a woman who is a victim of stalking.

It’s a huge bomb.

So it’s time to do a little seduction.

If I held his hands and looked up at him with tears in my eyes, I’d have a shot.

As I was thinking about this,

“Yes! If that’s the case, then leave it to me!”

“Huh!?”

I couldn’t help but show my true colors at the unexpectedly quick answer.

Komori has a somewhat strange expression on his face.

No, no, no. He’s the one who doesn’t understand. Does he even know what this means?

“Eh… Is that okay?”

“It’s only natural! The one who is suffering the most is Mayu-nee, right? You’re more than welcome to use me if you like! Also, it’s unforgivable. Stalking is a serious crime.”

No, it’s because it’s a crime that you would normally think that you might be harmed.

What’s with the quick answer?

No, really, wait a minute… With this, with just this one reply–

Of course, I won’t fall in love with Komori the mob…

But what the h**l, I’ll admit that I don’t want to give him to Natsukawa.
