The school prince (♀) is only close to me (♂) Remake

Chapter 4

(A/N Notes: For those who didn't look back, I added an illustration in the last chapter, and yes, it's an original illustration of Yuriko that I used as a page illustration, go check it out if you didn't see it yet, I can say that it was worth commissioning that illustration)

"..."

"..."

A weird standoff was happening inside a classroom, on one side Takeru was silent due to the surprise he received, while his classmates were silent anxiously waiting for his response

"I..."

"..." *Tension intensifies*

"... I accidentally stumbled on her on the corridor... And when I said that I was returning to the classroom... And that my vision was bad... She offered me her hand so that I wouldn't get lost as she took me here..."

"..."

"..."

Everyone stayed silent after receiving Takeru's confession of the matter at hand, and then...

"Whew! Thank god, that means I still have a chance with her"

"Man, you almost scared us there. We almost thought you two were dating"

"Alright, everyone! False alarm, there's nothing going between those two"

Everyone breathed with relief as they finally found out that Yuriko was still single, meaning that everyone still had an improbable chance of going out with her

And the rumors that were quickly circulating, were quickly swapped by rumors that there wasn't anything between the two and that it was simply another case of Yuriko being nice, as she always is

"..."

And Takeru who saw all of his classmates going back to doing their own stuff turned back on facing the blackboard, and deeply breathed in...

"Haaaaaa..." <I really can't handle that amount of people around me>

And when he breathed out releasing all of this tension, as he was extremely uncomfortable being surrounded by that many people

Meanwhile

"*Humming*"

Yuriko was humming as she made her way to her classroom, she hadn't noticed the rumors that were spread some time ago, so when she arrived at her classroom and opened the door, she would be completely unaware of whatever happened...

And then nothing happened, as the new rumors had already reached the class, so nobody made a fuss when she came inside the classroom, nobody except for... You guessed it, Daichi

"Y-Y-Yuriko-san..."

"Hm? What is it? !? Daichi-san!? Are you okay!?"

"I-I-I'm fi...ne..."

And then he fell face flat down on the floor as he passed out, as he had taken too much mental damage from the earlier rumors alongside his sleep deprivation. And that caused the classroom to get into an uproar

*Clap* "Alright, everyone. Calm down, I'll take Daichi-san to the infirmary, so give me space"

Following Yuriko's words, everyone gave her space, seeing that Yuriko get crouched down, and gently picked Daichi up and put him on her shoulder

"I'm leaving"

And with that she took Daichi to the infirmary, everyone in the classroom stayed silent as she did that until she was out of sight

"... *A single tear leaving the eye* *Hic* Not only does she helps people who get, but she also helps those that are sick as well..."

"... She's truly perfect in every aspect *Violently sweating from the eyes*"
