Chapter 16 – Want to Show My Manhood (Not in a Sexual Way) but Lack Confidence
It’s quite impressive how she’s able to manipulate both Ando and Kurebayashi-san. One shouldn’t underestimate her.
I can’t help but wonder how things led up to this point.
“What’s the name of that senior?”
“…It’s Kenzaki-san. Kenzaki Asuka-san.”
“…Kenzaki?”
The name sounds familiar, perhaps because it’s quite rare.
Kenzaki…
“Ah, I think she was the student council president. I’m sure of it.”
“That’s correct. Ando-kun was the secretary, wasn’t he?”
“Yeah, that’s right. I had forgotten, but it’s not important anyway.”
It’s likely that Ando’s personality and his penchant for quickies led him to become involved with Kenzaki-san.
However, Kurebayashi-san’s mother seems to know a lot about it. Was she involved in the PTA or something?
“By the way, I think I have the right to punch Ando two or three times, but where is that slimy b*****d right now?”
“…I don’t know where he is. After being dumped by Kenzaki-san, he didn’t learn his lesson and started flirting with Mii again, but…at that time, a curse was placed on him, saying he could only be alone for the rest of his life, so I don’t know what happened after that.”
“Hey, hold on, hold on, now I’m really curious about what kind of curse that is.”
“It’s a trade secret. By now, he’s probably causing some kind of techno-break or something.”
“…”
I hope that curse doesn’t affect me. It’s best to avoid making Kurebayashi-san’s mother an enemy.
“Well, leaving that aside, Mii looked into Yuuta-sama’s future school and enrolled in this university to make amends.”
“…Yeah, that’s right. But it’s troublesome to be told to make amends, you know?”
“…Yes. It may sound selfish, but as a mother, I can’t just leave Mii like this. Even though she made a foolish mistake… It’s a bold request, but I hope Yuuta-sama will accept Mii’s apology to make amends as much as possible.”
“No, but…”
“…Is that no good?”
“…”
My thoughts are all jumbled.
If I’m asked whether I want to forgive Kurebayashi-san, my honest answer is that I don’t want to. Not ever.
After all, if Kurebayashi-san hadn’t gone through the same thing with me, she wouldn’t have apologized so desperately.
Thinking about it, Kurebayashi-san’s mother’s request is quite selfish. Ignoring it might be the best option.
But still, it’s true.
If I don’t do anything and just leave it like this, it’s not very manly of me, is it?
Furthermore, Koijima-san is in the same situation. If I don’t graduate from college…
I might need to settle these two problems in order to move forward and find happiness.
That’s what I thought.
But if I face Kurebayashi-san again, my anger and sadness from back then might come flooding back, and I might get furious.
Ugh, my head is spinning!
I can understand Daska’s feelings now.
When a man is betrayed by someone he cares about, it twists him up like this.
“I’ll be honest.”
“…Yes?”
I faced Kurebayashi-san’s mother again, trying to look serious.
“I don’t think I can ever forgive Kurebayashi-san, and I think it would be a beautiful story if I could. But when I face Kurebayashi-san, those feelings fly away.”
“…Yes.”
“Being betrayed by someone important is heavy. But if we’re bound by that, there’s no good in it. That’s for sure.”
“…Yes.”
“So… I’ll accept Kurebayashi-san’s apology as a compromise. But after that, I want to cut off all relations with her. It might be difficult since we’re in the same department, but I’ll keep that in mind. That’s the condition for accepting the apology.”
“Really!?!”
“…Yes. But I want to put an end to this now.”
“…Eh?”
I’m aware that I’m making a pretty selfish demand.
But I’m not just going to let it go. I’ve struggled and suffered to get to this point, so I think I can say that much.
And I don’t want to be suddenly betrayed and made a fool of again, so please spare me that.
Whether I can forget or not, I’ll try to cut off the relationship and forget. That’s the compromise I’m proposing.
“…That’s fine. If it makes Mii a little happier…”
Kurebayashi-san’s mother probably has her own thoughts, but she understood that we can’t move forward if she doesn’t accept this. She agreed to my proposal.
Well, the scariest thing is still Mrs. Kurebayashi’s curse.
What’s with the curse that makes you unable to do anything but m********e? I wish she’d at least tell me the contents.

Well if the condition are leave the fuck off from his life, i would say that's a good bargain, considering that Mii seems not going to stop till the end of his year if the situation are still hanging like this.
It's good he wants to get over with this, but fleeing isn't necessarily something not manly. In fact, learning to run away at the correct moment makes you survive. I can already
see cheater misunderstanding his actions and reasons tho.
The censor words are annoying. And the mc behaving like the usual jap cuck is just as annoying.
