The Most Beautiful Girl in School Who Got Engaged is Devoted to Her Marriage Even Though it was a Political Marriage

“Hey, Yamabuki-kun. If you don’t mind, would you like to go out with us?”

I was preparing to go home after the day’s classes. While I was in the middle of preparation, I saw a petite female student with semi-short chestnut hair and round eyes of the same color, Suzuyo Tamamo. Tamamo-san called out to me.

Behind Tamamo-san, near the door at the back of the classroom, the Yōkya group to which she belongs is gathered. It looks like they’re all going to go out and have some fun.

Judging from Tamamo-san’s personality, the reason she invited me to hang out was probably because she cared about my current situation. After all, even though it’s been a year and a month (plus 10 days) since I started high school, I’m still stuck in the situation where I have no friends.

I appreciate Tamamo-san’s consideration. She was someone I admire because of her good communication skills since I am not that  good with communicating.

However, it has nothing to do with whether I accept the invitation or not.

“Sorry, Tamamo-san. I have something to do today.”

“I see… I see.”

When I refused with a friendly smile, Tamamo-san gave me a wry smile and turned her back to leave.

I mumbled so that Tamamo-san wouldn’t notice.

“Even if I come, I’ll only feel lonely.”

Because of what I’ve experienced when I was younger, I developed a mild distrust towards people. No matter how friendly the other person is, I cannot communicate with them. It feels like there is a wall between me and the other person.

Loneliness is a troublesome thing, and it’s not something that can be relieved by being with a lot of people. In fact, it’s the opposite. The more people around you, the more you feel like you’re the only one left out, and the more empty you feel.

So I declined the invitation. It is a lie to say that there are things that need to be done.

It’s a difficult thing, really.

Thinking about the complex I’ve had for so long, I took a deep breath.

Meanwhile, Tamamo-san returned to the Yokya group.

“Let’s go quickly, Tamamo.”

“I’m sorry. Tsukimiri-san, I’m sorry for keeping you waiting too.”

“No, no. Don’t worry.”

As Tamamo-san apologized, a female student with breathtaking beauty smiles gently at her.

In addition to being tall, she has long legs and her body resembles that of a model.

Despite her slender body, her breasts are thick and full, resembling a melon.

Her milk-white skin is flawless, and her glossy lips look like cherry blossom petals.

Her long hair is a golden blonde that looks like sunlight. Her round, plump eyes were as blue as sapphires. Her slender, well-groomed face is as beautiful as if it had been created using the golden ratio.

Navy blazer and pleated skirt, white shirt and red ribbon―our school’s, Hijirigaoka, uniform even looked high-end when she wore it.

Her name is Renge Tsukimisato. She is the most beautiful girl in the second year class we belong to – no, she is the most famous in this school.

Unlike me, who is secretive and a loner, Tsukimisato-san is admired by everyone and is proactive in socializing with others.

Tsukimisato-san and I are complete opposites in terms of the breadth of our connections and the height of our communication skills, but we actually have one thing in common. A corporate group that is recognized around the world. The point is that she is the granddaughter of the chairman of the Tsukimisato Group, a world-renowned corporate group.

That commonality makes the difference between me and Tsukimisato-san even clearer. Tsukimisato-san confronts me that she is different from me.

On the other hand, hse is a popular person who is always in the circle of people.

On the other hand, I am always lonely.

Exactly the yang and the yin. The moon and the soft-shelled turtle. [1]

“The descendants of business owners are all the same, so why are they so different?”

I couldn’t help but grumble.

Since there is no sign of it being resolved, I have already given up on my complex. I thought I would never be able to communicate with someone in my life. You must not give up thinking that you will never communicate with anyone.

I’ll probably live and die alone.

Even so, perhaps because of human nature, my heart still wants to communicate and socialize with other people. Even if you say you’ve given up, you can’t get used to it, and you end up wanting to escape from your loneliness. As if in a dream, I hope that someone whom I can communicate with will appear.

Even though I’m looking for social interaction, I’m still lonely no matter how far I go.

So all of it is still in vain.

That’s why I envy Tsukimisato-san. I feel jealous.

“If you’re jealous, you’ll only feel even more empty.”

Fed up with my own misery, I let out another sigh.
