[DROP] Horimiya: Izuna Miyamura
49. An unexpected result

Surprised, yes, Izuna was shocked at this moment. He never expected that Sayu would do something like this.

After living together for the past few weeks, Izuna knew Sayu well enough, and Sayu was not the type of girl who would move forward and come clean. She is the passive type of girl who just wants to be noticed and always avoids her problems.

Therefore, Izuna was quite surprised at this moment, especially when Sayu suddenly kissed her and expressed her feelings. That was really unexpected for Izuna.

"Wait-wait...! S-Sayu...? What happened to you?!" Izuna pushed Sayu by putting her hands on both of her shoulders and asked in agitation. Well, Izuna was very confused at the moment and she didn't know what to do in this situation.

"What I did wasn't enough to let you know what I meant?" Sayu asked with her eyes starting to glaze over.

Izuna was very confused now, she did not have much experience with girls and also, although this was not the first time there was a girl who confessed to her, but Sayu was a different case.

Confused? Sure oes.

"I love you, Izuna-san." Sayu raised her head, looking at Izuna with her eyes that started to glaze over as her shoulders trembled, "I'm your man, I really like you..."

"T-Tungg—! At least calm yourself first." Izuna stiffened Sayu's shoulders and looked around, fortunately the surrounding area was quite quiet and not many people were passing by here at the moment, "Alright, now follow me."

Pulling Sayu's hand, Izuna took her to a place where no one would hear them and they could talk alone.

Surely, that place was a fairly narrow alley.

Not far from where they were, there was an alley not far from there—to be exact in the north after the bend, they could see an inconspicuous alley, which was not very clear, the alley was surrounded by two large buildings on either side, making the alley almost invisible.

Moreover, Izuna also closed the end of the alley with a pile of wood lying there, so they could talk quietly without anyone bothering here.

"Alright, now say it slowly. What happened to you, Sayu? Why is it suddenly like this?" Izuna asked after sighing to calm herself down, really for her, Sayu was completely unlike Sayu whom she knew before.

Sayu nodded, she wiped a little tear at the corner of her eyes before exhaling to calm herself down first.

"Since the first time we met, I've been interested in you—no, maybe the word interested is not appropriate. But the point is, I've been watching you ever since." Sayu closed her eyes, put her hands together in front of her chest and continued, "You have helped me a lot, Izuna-san. I know that I may not be worthy of you, but... At least I want to express my feelings..."

"I-I know that you might hate me for this.... D-And worst-case scenario, I have to get out of your apartment.... B-But I don't mind! I-I'm ready for all that." Sayu lowered her head sadly, she knew that she might be in a hurry, but there was one feeling in her that made her do this.

He doesn't know, but there's an urge within him to tell her how he feels. He knew that he might be reckless, and perhaps this action would make him unable to meet Izuna again in the future.

But, he also knew that if he only acted passively, he would not be able to advance and he would just wait for his defeat without doing anything.

Therefore, despite knowing if the opportunity was rejected is big enough, Sayu has strengthened her determination!

But....

"Alright, I accept your feelings. From now on, please help."

"Eh?" Sayu was surprised, she raised her head and looked at Izuna in surprise, "A-Did you accept me, Izuna-san...?"

"Hmm, of course. Besides, why should I reject you?" Izuna asked while tilting her head in confusion. Although she was surprised and confused by Sayu, but she did not intend to reject her confession.

Honestly, Izuna is indeed interested in Sayu, and although her feelings have not grown until it can be called 'Love', but the feeling of 'Love' can grow as their relationship goes on.

"W-really?!" Sayu rubbed her eyes, looking at Izuna with a look of disbelief.

Honestly, he knew that the chance he had received was very small, especially when he knew that there were many girls close to Izuna, and definitely among the girls, especially when he knew that there were many girls close to Izuna, there is a girl more beautiful than him. So, he was quite unconfident that he would be accepted.

He's accepted.

Totally accepted!

Sayu is very happy. Even to show how happy she is, Sayu does not hesitate to jump for joy.

But before that...

"yes too. Izuna-san, I know you might be confused by what I said.... But, I will say it now." said Sayu while looking at Izuna straight, her gaze full of seriousness that made Izuna blink her head in confusion when she saw the expression on Sayu's face.

"Hmm?"

"I intend to solve my problems with my family in the near future.... So, when that comes, can you come with me to Hokkaido?"

The problem with her mother is that makes Sayu to escape from her home in Hokkaido until arriving to Tokyo. The problem really made Sayu stress which made her decide to run away from home.

But is he able to solve his own problems?

The answer depends on how determined Sayu is. But to be sure, she needed someone beside her to support her and could lend her a shoulder to lean on.

Izuna smiled, she raised her hand and placed it over Sayu's head and stroked her head lightly, "Of course. I'll come with you to Hokkaido. Just tell me when you're ready and we'll go there soon."

"Really?" Sayu looked at Izuna with her teary eyes.

Izuna lowered her hand from Sayu's head and wiped the tears at the corner of her eyes, she said calmly, "Of course. Besides, you're my girlfriend."

"P-boyfriend?!"

"Eh, right?"

"Tida—I mean Yes!"

"Hahaha, so much better. By the way, let's go to the clothing store first." said Izuna suddenly which made Sayu confused as to why they should go to the clothing store.

Iori just told him to buy groceries for lunch, and Izuna will go to school. Why do they go to the clothing store?

"Why?" Sayu asked subconsciously as she tilted her head in confusion.

"Of course to buy clothes. Is it for anything else?"

"No.... That's not what I meant.... Why do we have to go to a clothing store? Iori-san just told me to buy groceries, right?" Sayu tilted her head.

"Indeed, but we'll buy clothes for me" said Izuna calmly, she then explained, "it's past 9 and if I go to school, the gate will be closed. So, it's better if I just skip today. But, with clothes like this, I'll get in trouble. Therefore, we go to the clothing store first now."

It's true, the school starts at 9, and if he goes there now, Yui will definitely give him trouble for being late. He did not want to get into troublesome trouble, so it was better to ditch than to go to school.

After all, even though Yui was a pretty girl, and her 'Tsundere' side made her even more attractive. But, Izuna did not like the problem. Moreover, Yui is the Chairman of the Discipline Committee, and one of her duties is to discipline students who violate school rules.

So, it was better for him not to go to school than to have to deal with Yui.

But, forget that for a moment because Izuna and Sayu currently decided to go to the nearest clothing store to buy clothes for Izuna to wear.
