While I Was Giving Love Advice to My Best Friend, the School's Most Beautiful Girl Somehow Became the Closest Person to Me-Chapter 1Volume 2 .6 - The Childhood Friend Returns
The Childhood Friend Returns
“I’ll ask Alisa, but if she says no, you have to give up. Alisa’s house is a big place.”
“Really!? Not only is she beautiful, but she’s also rich.”
I try to contact Alisa on my smartphone, but she doesn’t answer. No reply either. No choice then, I’ll bring her along. It’s not like Alisa and I are dating.
It should be fine to bring Tsumugi… It’s not that I’m afraid of being alone with her, but I have a feeling that I might seriously anger someone.
Is it just my imagination?
Walking like this with Tsumugi, it’s been since we were five years old. We’ve both grown up, haven’t we?
That reminds me.
“So, what are you going to do about club activities? Did you find one that suits you?”
“Hmm… They were all fun.”
“I happened to see you during the break. How about the track and field club?”
“Did you see me? I do like running and jumping… probably. But…”
Tsumugi shakes her head.
“I don’t think the track and field club is for me. I probably shouldn’t join.”
“Why? What club were you in at your previous schoo——”
“Ryouma, what clubs are Alisa-chan and Shizuku-chan in?”
Suddenly, my words were cut off, and I couldn’t finish what I was saying. Tsumugi smiles and waits for an answer to her question. Sigh.
“Otsuki-san is in the Gardening Club. She seems to like nurturing things. The vegetables they grow are used in the cafeteria.”
“Is that so? Gardening Club, huh… I can’t say it to her, but it might not be for me.”
“Tsumugi, you are more suited for sports clubs. Alisa isn’t in any club right now.”
“Really!?”
She seems genuinely surprised.
“Alisa-chan was amazing during PE. She’s fast and has great reflexes… It’s the first time I’ve seen someone who can keep up with me.”
Asahina Alisa is not just a beauty. She excels in athletics, and during the initial sports test at school, her elegant running with a dignified expression captivated everyone.
“I really think Alisa is an amazing person. But it seems like the people around her won’t let her be free. Boys who wanted to get close to her crowded her, so she couldn’t join any club.”
“Ah… I see.”
“You don’t seem too surprised. I was quite shocked when I heard it.”
“I guess I have some experience with that too… though not as much as Alisa-chan.”
That’s when I realized once again how beautifully my childhood friend had grown up.
All the guys in our class are paying attention to Tsumugi. Alisa is probably the most popular, but she dislikes boys and often throws harsh words at them, so lately Tsumugi’s reputation has been rising. Tsumugi smiles kindly at everyone equally.
“I wanted to join the same club as Alisa-chan…”
“You really like Alisa, don’t you?”
“Yeah! I talked a lot with her today. There’s still a distance, but I want to get closer little by little. I want to get along with Shizuku-chan too and maybe work on creating Reo’s bad reputation…”
“Please be moderate with that.”

Tsumugi is tough only on Reo. No… It’s probably safe to say that’s Tsumugi’s true nature. Ten years have passed… and she’s calmed down so much. While we’re talking, we arrive at Alisa’s mansion.
“No way… It’s a huge mansion!”
“It’s definitely surprising the first time you see it.”
The mansion is impressively grand. The gate and garden are well-maintained; it’s the epitome of wealth. I remember that I entered the premises without permission in the rain and knocked on the front door. If Alisa hadn’t forgotten to close the gate, I might have been stuck in front of it.
“Alisa-chan is really an incredible person, isn’t she?”
Overwhelming beauty, unmatched athletic ability, the smartest in the grade, and on top of that, the daughter of a wealthy CEO. How many girls like that could there be in this world?
“I’m getting nervous… Was it okay for me to come?”
“There’s no reply from Alisa.”
She might not have seen the message on her smartphone. Could she be sleeping? I have a spare key, but it would be bad to just enter if she’s changing, so I decided to ring the intercom at the entrance. Then I hear footsteps approaching. Will Alisa open the door?
“I wonder what Alisa-chan’s loungewear is like. Is it an ojou-sama style?”
While Tsumugi is excited, the door opens. Yes, the school’s queen, Asahina Alisa, is…
“Welcome home, Master!”
For some reason, she’s dressed in a maid outfit.
“What are you doing, Alisa…”
“Well, you see, there’s a reason for this. Ryouma is the master, so…”
“I don’t understand at all!”
That’s right, I remember now. Her true nature is that of a clumsy beauty with many weaknesses. Why did I ever put Alisa on a pedestal!?
“Wow…! Alisa-chan, you’re so cute!”
“Eh?”
Alisa, who had been blushing with a smitten expression, snaps back to reality at Tsumugi’s words, her face turning to shock.
“Why is Hiiragi-san here…?”
“Alisa-chan has this side to her, huh…”
“Ah… ahh… I’ve been seen! In this outfit! Nooooo!”
Alisa’s scream echoes.
I’m sure this will lead to trouble, I thought as I looked up at the sky.
