Ch. 46: Ryuji's Problem

...Problems will not be a problem, if not a problem.Hikigaya Hachiman....

...\=•\=•\=...

I Rey and Rin decided to order food first because the break was almost over. Actually, we wanted to wait for Ryuji, but that's it. As usual, we sat in the same place. I sat down with Rin while Rey sat across from us. Rin and Rey have started eating, but I'm not. I don't know why I feel bad when I think about Ryuji. Not because I like him or anything, but he's my best friend. The one who always brings laughter and breaks silence. Honestly speaking, if he doesn't exist, then it's like there's less here.

"Don't you think kenwapaa kao two?" rin asked with his mouth full of ramen noodles. So, his words are not very clear.

His help broke my daydream. "Eh? It's okay, Rin," I replied.

"Ai, are you thinking about something? If yes, what are you thinking? Judging from your face, it looks like you are thinking about something that is not pleasant to hear." Rey asked me that.

"Hah .. You know it's Rey. It's about Ryuji. I don't know why I always think about him. My gut was always telling me something bad was happening to him. Hence, I'm afraid if it really happens." I bowed my head in sadness.

While Rin and Rey just looked at me with a confused look. "Ai, why are you so worried about her? He is just an ordinary person and nothing more than your best friend. Laki–no, I mean that coward also does not have such a handsome appearance. So, we have no reason to worry about it. Besides, don't you have Rey? He's a lot more handsome and cool than that coward. Yeah, even though their brains are both empty." Rin explained and asked me not to worry too much about the penge–I mean Ryuji.

"Huhh .. a fool with his 'empty brain'. Yeah, Ai .. I think this girl judes is right. Ryuji is a man, he definitely knows what is best. And, didn't you yourself say that 'it's possible that Ryuji has a problem'. So, I mean, you don't have to worry about it. Trust me, he'll be back soon." Rey smiled at me too.

"But, the problem .. Ryuji's nature today is very different. He's behaving like he's not the Ryuji we know. Are you aware of that?" I asked once more. My feeling is confusing me.

Rin grabbed my right shoulder. "Already have. Forget Ryuji's problem. Eat first! Aren't you sick? Don't think too much Ai. 'Ryuji must be fine'. That is the answer I will always give you if you ask about Ryuji. So, already, huh? I feel sorry for Rey. She must have been jealous because you worried about other guys." At a time like this, Rin instead teases Rey with his unconventional remarks. But I like that instead. Rin's words made me calm down a little. He's right too. Ryuji must be fine, I'm sure.

Map ... tap .. tap ....

At the same time, we heard the sound of footsteps of someone approaching us. That voice came from behind me and Rin. Rey nodded when she saw him.

"Rey, why?" my question then turned around to see the reason why Rey was agape. I was very surprised when I saw that it turned out to be Ryuji. He stood in front of us with a smile on his face.

"Hey! Sorry to keep you waiting. I had a little problem earlier." Ryuji scratched the back of his head.

"Ryuji .. you–" I was about to ask him about his current state. But, for the umpteenth time, Rin again cut off my words. "Hey, Ryuji! Why are you putting on a smile like that, hm? As if nothing happened. Do you know what? We are very very worried about you basic bo–huft quiet calm. I can't say dirty things. Patience Rin, patience."

"Hee .. hah .. I'm sure you're the one who's going to scold me first. Yeah, I take that as advice. First, I want to apologize to you, for worrying you. Second, I want to thank you for worrying about me. And the third, I thank you for being ordered ramen. Okay, all right." Ryuji sat down right next to us, right next to Rey.

However, as he sat down .... "Eh, I haven't been given any food? I thought it was a ...."

"Try using your brain a little bit. Anybody orders you food if they don't know what they want. And, I wouldn't order food for you either!" Rin said that again. He really can't get along with Ryuji. But, Ryuji gave a different reaction now. Usually, he would get angry and get Ryuji to argue. But today it is not.

"Huftt .. alright. You don't want to be kind to others. I wish you were always single .. Amin!" reply Ryuji. Emm .. Nothing seems to have changed from him.

"What did you say, huh?!"

Rin kicked the table and hit Ryuji.

Keirbug ...

Ryuji fell out of his chair and lay on the floor. Everyone's attention was immediately on the two of them, I mean us. Emm ... the fall vote is roughly so. I can't hear the sound of the fall.

Besides, why am I even bothering about falling votes?

"Aduuhhhh .. my waist ...."

"Ryuji .. I know you hate me so much. But, don't miss dong too. If I really don't have a boyfriend until I grow up, then I'll come to your house and take your life. Remember that!" threaten Rin with a face full of anger.

"Elaahh, I was just kidding tauu. Hope you get a girlfriend soon. But the guy who is not handsome is haha! Kaabborr!" Ryuji got up and ran.

"What did you say? Hey, Ryuji don't run away! Erghh .. hmp!" Rin sat back with an angry face. As usual, if she was angry, then her cheeks would bulge next to her. It was then that I realized that Rin was a Tsundere girl, yes even a little Yandere anyway.

I returned with a little laugh. I'm glad that Ryuji is back and doing funny things again with Rin.

Not long after, Ryuji returned to the table. He brought a bowl of ramen and then sat down next to Rey. Meanwhile, Rin was still looking at him with a cynical look. A silent atmosphere was created.

Duh, if not immediately chat, Rin can do things like that. He had already marked the incident earlier and would never forget it, for sure!

However, the silence ended when Ryuji opened the subject.

"Eh, Ai. After school, I want to take you somewhere. You want to not?" ask Ryuji.

"Eh?"

"No-no. What do you want to do with Ai! No, I'm not allowing it!" sahut Rin was upset.

"Calm down. I didn't mean anything. I just want to confide in. I thought Ai was a kind and friendly boy. So maybe he has the right solution for my problem" Ryuji said.

"Indeed, what's your problem? Just tell us. Who knows, we can help." Rey asks Ryuji a question.

"Sorry, this is my family's problem. So, I can't tell it to just anyone, just a few," Ryuji replied with a gloomy face.

Looking at Ryuji's sad face, I replied, "Well, I want to!" Yeah, maybe I can help solve the problem. Although this all sounds strange.

Rey and Rin could only look at each other and look at each other.
