What the Boyfriend Can Do at a Time like This

Mizuto Irido

Our lodgings felt like a hotel in the mountains, next to the beach, which was only a part of a larger resort with various facilities. It was almost like a town. Standing in front of the lodging area were the students who’d finished their various courses. The teachers were taking roll call, and after they finished, we’d essentially have free time until dinner. Or at least, that’s how it was supposed to have gone down, but one of the groups in our class had yet to arrive. Thanks to that, we got our free time a little earlier than scheduled, or at least until roll call.

“Got a sec?” It was during this time that Yume covertly tugged on my sleeve. She didn’t say anything further and casually pulled me away from our class. I followed her to the huge pool next to the hotel.

The hotel likely wanted to emulate the vibe of a tropical country because they had palm trees around the pool. Yume stopped in the thin shadows of one of them as the sun set.

“What’s up?” I asked her.

It took some time before she found her words and was able to wade through her confusion to break through the silence. “It’s about the mysterious person from last night.”

“Do you have a lead?” I asked.

Yume nodded. “Asuhain-san... She has a cut on her thigh.”

“Her, huh?”

“You’re not surprised?”

“Despite someone catching us together red-handed, that information seemingly has yet to spread. I had a feeling it might’ve been someone who knew us.”

With that logic, it makes sense why the culprit hadn’t said anything to anyone else. It also explains why they were aiming to catch the two of us meeting by the pool. Of course, there was the possibility that they’d just happened to see the two of us, but it was equally as likely that they’d caught on to our plans to meet there from something one of us had said. To be honest, I’d been about sixty percent sure that the culprit had been Kawanami. But if the culprit really was Asuhain, then it made sense why her attitude towards me had changed. If she’d found out that Yume and I were dating, she would stop trying to ask me out and instead act even more awkward around Yume.

“So...what are you gonna do?” I asked. “If it really is her, I doubt she’ll spread rumors. There’s probably no harm in just pretending we don’t know.”

“True...”

“Doesn’t seem like you’re into the idea,” I said, looking at her face, which still seemed taut.

She wasn’t angry. Instead, it seemed like there was still something bothering her. Most likely, she was wondering why Asuhain had decided to peek in on us at all. Asuhain didn’t seem like the type to enjoy gossip. There must’ve been a reason. Something that only she knew the answer to. But now, Yume was lost as to what to do. She’d finally gotten on good terms with Asuhain, and she didn’t want to throw that away by pressing her about this.
