My Girlfriend Cheated on Me With a Senior, so I’m Cheating on Her With His Girlfriend - Chapter 68
68 – A phone call from Enka
When I got home, I had my linear algebra textbook open for the second semester exam.
But I couldn’t get into it at all.
I’ve already been on the same page for nearly thirty minutes.
I wonder if I did something a little bad …
I had that feeling.
However, it was cruel as a result to have expectations with an ambiguous reply, and I didn’t feel like meeting Meika-chan as it was.
…… Well, it can’t be helped,……
I have to think so.
…… but the problem is now: ..….
I looked at the phone beside me.
I don’t think she’s going to leave it like this.
Mmm, mmm, mmm. ……
The phone vibrated.
It wasn’t a text or a message. It was a direct call.
The person on the other end was, as I had expected, Enka.
I picked up my phone and answered it.
“Yes?”
“It’s me!”
I can already hear the anger in her voice.
“…..”
“Hey, what’s going on?”
“What do you mean? I’m serious, I’m serious.” “What are you talking about? Meika, she was crying a lot on the phone!”
Her voice sounded as if she had lost her temper.
“If there was a problem with the way I spoke, I will apologise later. But I did not say anything wrong and I’m not going to change what we talked about.”
“Meika really likes you, and that’s why she gathered her courage and confessed her feelings to you. And yet!”
“How much do you know about Meika’s feelings?”
“I understand, we’re best friends.”
“Really? Then I’ll give you my opinion. It’s not me that Meika likes. It’s an imaginary me that she projects her ideal onto. Isn’t that a story that would happen to a high school student your age who only has one girl in her life?”
“How can you say that?”
“Today, as we talked, I thought again. I wondered how you can continue to have such feelings for me when you don’t even know me very well. Isn’t that unnatural?”
Enka was silent.
“I only see Meika a few times a year. We only exchanged a few words. Of course, she came to Ishida with me once or twice a year, and we had dinner together. But that was it.”
“But there is such a thing as love at first sight, isn’t there?”
“I don’t believe in that. I don’t believe in that. First of all, how can you continue to have feelings for someone just because of their appearance?”
“You didn’t even know my sister, but you’ve always liked her.”
“That’s why I understand. It’s true that I’ve also had a crush on the Touko since high school. I thought it would be nice if I could go out with her. But after the day I spent with her, I clearly thought about it. For you to really love someone, you have to have a deep interaction with them.”
“……”
“Me and Toko-senpai were forced to face the painful fact that our partners “cheating” on us. And we supported each other to get over it. My feelings for her are very different from before.”
“What if I tell you that I will show the picture to my sister?”
This little devil will really do it.
But ……
“Go ahead, do it. I thought so myself, “What would I do if my position at Touko-senpai was reversed?”
“……”
“I would feel bad. I think I will get angry. But I will listen to what she has to say, and I think I will believe in the end.”
“….. sister will definitely trust me.”
“That’s why I’m telling you to give it a go. Don’t think I’m going to be scared off forever.”
“If you say that much, I’ll give you what you want. Even if you don’t go out with Meika, I’ll never let you go out with my sister! It’s too late to have regrets now!”
There, the phone went silent.
I threw the phone out and lay down on the bed at the same time.
I’m tired, seriously tired.
I feel like I don’t want to do anything else today.
An hour after Enka’s call.
I was lost in front of my phone.
…… What should I do, should I call Touko-senpai from me? Or should I wait for Touko-senpai to call me? ……
I made a big show of it earlier, but as time went by, I became more, and more anxious.
To be honest, I don’t think Enka will ever ‘police’ me with that photo.
As expected, she won’t go that far. Right…?
And I have the ‘threatening text message she sent me when she called me up at the karaoke bar’.
If you look at the picture that says ‘who are you’, most people should be able to tell that it’s a bad prank from Enka Girl.
I’m not the best, but she’s not either.
But by saying “I was seduced by Enka” could make it worse.
…… If that happens, the super-strong Touko will ……
Oh no, it’s not good. I should hurry……
Should I call her after all?
I was super scared, but I called her phone number.
In this case, a phone call would be better than a message or text message.
After about three calls, Touko-senpai picked up the phone.
“Yu-kun? I’m sorry, but you’ll have to wait a bit later. I’m having an important conversation right now.”
“Ah, yes. …….”
Almost as soon as I answered, the phone hung up.
…… Maybe it’s already too late……
Two more hours passed.
It was already around 8pm.
…… Touko-senpai, why haven’t you contacted me? Don’t tell me that you’re completely disgusted with me and don’t want to talk to me anymore. ……
I couldn’t wait any longer.
I have to at least get her to listen to me.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be satisfied with the rejection.
That’s when it happened.
The phone I was holding vibrated.
The display showed that it was from Touko-senpai.
I hurriedly picked up the phone.
“Yes, it’s me!”
Then, the words from the other end of the phone, from Touko-senpai, were unexpected.
“Yu-kun? I know this is going to sound strange, but have you heard from Enka?”
