Chapter 146: What I know about Miyagi — 146

Translated by KaiesV

At twelve o’clock.

That’s what I had thought, but although the twelfth hour passed quickly and two o’clock in the afternoon was approaching, there was no reply from Miyagi.

On the bed where I lay, glaring at my phone.

I decide that I have to wait until noon to hear back from Miyagi, so I think I must leave the house soon.

I have my part-time job today.

I may skip college, but I can’t skip my part-time job where there’s a student. If I continue to slack off and wait for a response, it’ll be time for my part-time job, so I should leave home early. I know, but I can’t leave the house because of the awkwardness of seeing her.

I don’t have the confidence to speak as usual.

I don’t have the confidence to see Miyagi’s face as usual.

And I cannot bear it if Miyagi sees me differently than usual and misunderstands that I regret what I did on Sunday. If I told her I liked her to clear up the misunderstanding, he would think I was using the word “like” to justify what happened on Sunday, and my true feelings would not be conveyed. Besides, if I told her I liked her, Miyagi would surely disappear from me again.

「This isn’t good.」

I mumble nothing to anyone and get up.

Looking at my phone, which is not responding, I am pulled by negative feelings more than the desire to see Miyagi.

『Miyagi, reply to me!』

I message Miyagi with frustration and anticipation.

But the phone still won’t budge a bit.

Time is wasting away, and I leave the house, ready to go.

The clouds are low and the sun is shining, but it is not too hot.

I walk quickly to the station and get on the train.

In my bag, my phone is sleeping like dead.

It doesn’t respond when the train shakes.

I took out my phone and look at the screen, but still no reply. It’s not a difficult question to ask when she will be back, so she should send a reply right away.

Look out the window and watch the scenery flow by.

Thinking about what I have to do now makes me restless. I want to get off at the next stop and go home. I get off at the station where I should get off, almost sucked in by the opening door, and proceed with my heavy feet as if I were wearing iron shoes. Step by step, I headed toward the university. I don’t know how long I walked, but I stopped when I saw my destination.

「…Come to think of it, I didn’t look it up.」

I looked up the location of the university when I was deciding on my current house, but I didn’t look up the inside, so I have no idea what’s inside the university. Because I was thinking only about Miyagi, I hadn’t done my homework. I took out my phone and searched where the university was located and what it had to offer.

「Miyagi, I hope I find you.」

.

As I knew before I came here, a large and crowded university is not a good place to look for people. Even if it was my college, it is difficult to catch someone you don’t know where they are and can’t contact them.

I should have listened to the college a little more.

It’s not that we didn’t talk about college at all, but I didn’t even keep track of her schedule, so I couldn’t even predict where Miyagi would be today, at this time.

I walk into the university with my phone in hand. Even though students from other universities are allowed in, I am just a little nervous.

I look around to see where students might go, but no matter where I go or how many people I pass, Miyagi wasn’t there. Since it’s not even certain whether Miyagi is at the university in the first place, it may be futile to look for her.

After walking around for nearly an hour, I sit down on a bench.

I felt as if I was doing something meaningless, and I was awfully tired even though I was just walking. I check my phone, but there is no reply from Miyagi. I would like to ask her where she is, but if she knew I was at the university, she would run away to avoid being found. That said, I don’t think I will find Miyagi if I keep walking around.

「Maybe I’ll just stay at the gate.」

Searching for people at a university is akin to the task of finding a grain of salt in a grain of sugar. It’s not easy to find Miyagi anywhere. Still, a place where a lot of people pass by should increase the chances of finding Miyagi.

I get up and head for the main gate.

Perhaps because of all the walking around, it was a little hot despite the breeze.

The sky looks annoyingly blue.

Normally I would consider it a nice day, but right now the bluer the sky is, the angrier I am at its blue.

I let out a small breath.

I turn to look around to see if I can find her a bit more on inside. As I walked around, looking around to see if Miyagi was anywhere, I saw a familiar face.

「Ahh!」

I was unintentionally loud.

The atmosphere has changed, but there is no doubt.

「Utsonomiya!」

「…Eh, Ehh!? Sendai-san!?」

I run up to Utsunomiya, who is walking alone toward me, and grab her arm.

「What is it? Why are you here, Sendai-san?」

Utsunomiya looked at me in surprise.

I knew it, I think.

Miyagi said she told Utsunomiya she was living with me, but if she knew I was Miyagi’s roommate, she wouldn’t be so surprised to see me. I knew there was no way she was telling the truth to Utsunomiya, but it was to be expected.

「I was looking for, Miyagi.」

I feel bad for Miyagi, but I mention her name.

「Miyagi, by that, do you mean, Shiori?」

「Yes, that Miyagi. Was she by any chance staying at Utsunomiya’s house?」

「…Why is Sendai-san looking for Shiori?」

「You haven’t heard?」

「What do you mean I haven’t heard?」

Utsunomiya, not quite grasping the situation, makes a perplexed face.

Miyagi, she would be absolutely furious.

But we graduated from high school, and we no longer have to hide from Utsunomiya that I have a connection with Miyagi. Miyagi wanted to keep it a secret, but if she didn’t told her, the story would not go forward. If Miyagi gets in trouble for getting into trouble, she deserves it. It was Miyagi’s fault for lying to Utsunomiya, and it is Miyagi’s fault for not sending a reply.
