[DROP] Horimiya: Izuna Miyamura
59. Solutions (1/2)

The next day, Izuna did his daily activities as usual. He got up early and took a jog, after which he did some light exercise before finally returning to the apartment.

Today, was the day that he gave an answer to Asuna and Hakari, he had no idea what happened if they heard what he would say later, he said, but he didn't think much because he could think about the consequences later.

Entering her apartment, Izuna was immediately greeted by Sayu who was wearing an apron and carrying a vegetable spoon in her hand. It seemed like she was helping Iori cook when Izuna entered the apartment.

"Oh, Izuna-kun. Welcome back. Breakfast is almost ready, and you can take a bath first while waiting for breakfast to be ready. Oh, by the way I'm preparing a bathtub with warm water for you there." Sayu, no doubt is a hardworking girl. He doesn't like to accept other people's gifts freely.

That's why, in exchange for having allowed to stay in their apartment, Sayu works at the Iori cake shop and also helps her in cooking, sweeping and other household affairs.

"Oh, really? Thank you then. I'll take a shower to clean my body." Izuna walked away to her room, picked up one pair of clothes to change before finally going to the bathroom.

If anyone asks, why is Izuna's reaction to Sayu ordinary? That was because Sayu had previously said if they might be better to keep their relationship secret from Iori for a while.

But, Sayu had her own reasons why she asked Izuna to keep their relationship a secret from Iori.

Sayu's not ready yet.

Sayu doesn't like to face things head on. He would do what he could only to delay things he did not want to deal with. All he wanted to do was run away from everything, to live an easier life but at the same time, he missed someone to scold him and tell him to stop running.

That's why he loves Izuna.

Izuna often reprimanded him when he made a mistake, he also made him accept himself as he is. But, even so Sayu is still the previous Sayu.

That's why, before her problems with her family are over, Sayu has no intention of announcing their relationship to anyone else.

Yes, Sayu decided to solve her problem. Although it seems difficult, but Sayu does not want to fall like this constantly. Especially after she confirmed her relationship with Izuna, she wanted to settle her issues with her mother as much as possible.

Therefore, Sayu has asked Izuna to accompany her to go to Hokkaido to meet her mother and get things done.

But when they will leave is uncertain. Clearly, Sayu was still preparing herself and steeling her resolve before she decided to leave.

After finishing her breakfast, Izuna immediately said goodbye and walked towards her school.

Today, he had already decided how to answer Hakari and Asuna's feelings. And hopefully they can accept his current situation.

'I think it's possible ....'

Thinking about how much they felt about her, Izuna was sure enough to think positively. But, when he recalled a certain yandede character from the anime he had watched before, cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

If the love for her is so great, there is a high chance that they will accept her and will become her second and third boyfriend.

But there is another option in this.

If their love is so great, so great that even they have an obsession with it, there is a chance that his life will be in danger. And not just his life, but the people around him.

Izuna did not want any of them to awaken their 'yandere' nature and become more destructive. And, even though he didn't hate the 'Yandere' girl (and probably liked them) but he didn't want them both to be one of them.

'Well, hopefully not ....'

'Looks like I should look for him ...'

But, Izuna realized something. Four-leaf clover was extremely rare, and even if he could find one, it would definitely take quite a long time. And now, his time was limited, so how could he get two four-leaf clover on time.

The answer is easy ....

"....."

Izuna thought that the system was so understanding.

As Izuna was thinking about this, the systek suddenly gave her the gift of strength she desperately needed this time.

"Detection" or Detection, as the name implies is an ability that makes the user can feel the presence of anything/everything around him. This includes inanimate objects, living things, substances, matter, concepts, energy, diseases and more.

Surely, this was the ability that Izuna needed right now, as she intended to search for a four-leaf clover. And, with this ability he could find a four-leaf clover in no time.

About 30 minutes later, Izuna was waiting in the backyard of the school, where the three of them would meet today.

"Good morning, Izuna-kun."

"Again, Izuna-kun."

Izuna turned to look at Hakari and Asuna who greeted him while walking towards him. Izuna smiled gently at them, which made the two blush when she saw her smile, but still tried to maintain their composure and behave normally.

"Again, how are you?" Izuna asked, the question he asked might sound quite strange to some people, but come on, he asked this just for pleasantries and made this chapter longer!

Asuna smiled as she said, "I'm good, by the way I've bought some novels that you recommended for me the other day. And when I read it I immediately liked the story! Thanks, Izuna-kun!"

A few days ago, Asuna once asked Izuna what she does when she is free. Well, Izuna actually spent her free time practicing and honing the skills she gained from the system. But, he knew that he could not say that to Asuna.

Therefore, he said if he read novels or manga in his spare time, which makes Asuna interested and ask for recommendations interesting and exciting novels with a groove that is not heavy.

Surely, Izuna would have a hard time answering Asuna's questions because she rarely read novels, but fortunately, she had some interesting novels that matched the criteria Asuna had mentioned before. So, without a doubt Izna recommended the novel to Asuna.

And if you ask, where did Izuna know about the novel? The answer is pretty easy. Perhaps some of you remember that Izuna intended to become a mangaka novelist in the previous chapters, and he also got an "Artistic Mastery" right then and there.

And from there, Izuna looked for some novels as a reverence, and although she still did not finish reading them all, but she knew the outline of the story from the leaks that people spread on the internet.

"So, can we hear your answer now?" Hakari asked, if he was rejected here, then that would be the end of him. But, even though he knew that the dka was likely to be rejected, he was curious about Izuna's answer which made him very helpless because he loved her too much.

On the other hand, Asuna did not say anything, she just kept quiet as she stood next to Hakari and looked at Izuna yanh standing in front of them with a calm expression. But, if one looked closely at him, they would definitely notice the sweat droplets dripping from his forehead as well as him who had gulped his saliva several times, signaling how nervous he was at the moment.

"Before I answer your feelings, I want to say something first." Izuna took a deep breath, processed the sentence she had in mind before then looked at Asuna and Hakari then said, "I am not a good person, and I am a greedy person. Also, I'm not a good person, and I already have a boyfriend. After knowing that, do you still want to accept me?"
