Chapter 77 IF Scenario: Xiao Ruoyi and Xiao Feijia [VIP]

Chapter Summary: 02

Side Story 1: Assuming Ruoyi and Tuo are childhood friends 02

"Fei, Fei Jia..."

Kawakami Wakana tugged at Fyodor's clothes and said, "You've gone too far. You should apologize to Jasmine and the others."

As soon as she finished speaking, Kawakami Wakai shut her mouth.

Because the boy turned around. Purple Grape's eyes scrutinized her, but Kawakami Wakana couldn't help but shiver.

Because she actually saw a sharp, demonstrative gaze, like that of a snake, and a murderous intent in the eyes of a boy her own age.

"You're not angry at all?"

"They all say that about you."

Are you angry?

She had always considered Jasmine and the others as friends, so being told such things must have left her feeling somewhat disappointed and angry.

But for some reason, she also felt that she could understand why the other person thought that way...

Composing herself, Kawakami Wakana took Fyodor's thin hands and looked at the angry girl before her, saying:

"So that's what you all think of me. First of all, I apologize for thinking that I didn't treat you as friends. But, Fei Jia didn't do anything wrong. He just couldn't stand what Jasmine said. You can go to him, or ask me for money to pay for the milk tea, but you're not allowed to cause him any trouble."

After saying that, he grabbed Fyodor and left.

On the first floor, inside the store is McDonald's.

The two children didn't order any food, just two drinks, and sat down in the empty seats.

Ruoyi took a sip of her cola: "Actually, I'm someone who really enjoys making friends. In kindergarten, I was the kind of person who was noisy and could play with everyone. I thought that when I went to elementary school, I would have more classmates around me and I could become friends with everyone."

"But now it seems that maybe I was just treating them as friends, but they didn't need me..."

"Some people are just not meant to be friends," the boy opposite said.

Kawakami Wakai:?

She thought the boy would explain something, but he just lowered his head and started drinking his cola.

"..."

“I understand!” Kawakami Wakana said loudly.

"That"

"From now on, Feja will be my only friend."

Fyodor: ?

…………

After that, probably intimidated by her words and Fei Jia's gaze, Jasmine and the others didn't cause any trouble for Ruoyi at school.

But Kawakami Wakana seemed to have become a completely different person.

She started to rarely initiate conversations with others, and she no longer spent her days playing soccer with boys or chatting about TV dramas with girls as she used to.

More often than not, she chose to be with Feja.

"Feijia, Feijia, what book are you reading?"

"Feijia, I finished reading that book you were looking at last time, but I don't seem to understand it. Could you explain it to me?"

"Feijia, I can't do this math problem!"

"Feijia, a new ice cream shop just opened nearby, wanna go get some?"

Fyodor: "..."

He found that Kawakami Wakai was indeed too noisy at times.

Fyodor still patiently explained the parts of the book she didn't understand and the homework problems to her time and time again, or agreed to meet her every now and then.

Even Fyodor thought that these days were not bad.

Even though Kawakami Wakana was occasionally a bit noisy, life was at least in heaven compared to before.

Days passed by one by one. Before we knew it, spring break had arrived.

Kawakami Wakana and Fyodor's elementary school only reorganizes into different classes every two years. Therefore, they remained classmates after the second grade.

After spring break, the days grew hotter and hotter. It was only the end of May, and it was already so hot that it felt like being on the equator. Even Kawakami Wakai's female classmates had already switched to short sleeves and skirts.

But Fyodor was the only exception.

He was still wearing a thick long-sleeved shirt, wrapping himself up tightly. Even during Japanese class, he wore a long-sleeved and long-legged tracksuit, the kind of clothes people usually wear in the coldest part of winter.

If May could be explained by the person being cold-sensitive, then June, when Sendai was fully in summer, the fact that the person was still dressed like that puzzled Kawakami Wakai.

Doesn't Fedia feel hot at all?

She was worried he would get heatstroke just looking at him!

Finally, after a PE class, Ruoyi couldn't hold back anymore.

"And Fei Jia too."

"...?"

"Aren't you hot?" Ruoyi asked. "It's already over thirty degrees Celsius, and you just finished PE class, and you're wearing such thick clothes..."

As she spoke, she rolled up the sleeve of Fyodor's tracksuit: "This will be more comfortable... huh?"

Ruoyi's fingers stopped.

He couldn't help but tremble.

She stared, dumbfounded, at the glaring scar on the boy's arm.

"This is……"

“It’s nothing.” Fyodor didn’t explain further. “Transferring schools means it’s all in the past.”

"..."

After that, the way Kawakami Wakana and Fyodor interacted didn't seem to change much, but Wakana started to share snacks with him more often, or take him to her home for meals, and even the number of times she invited him out to play increased.

Perhaps she felt sorry for him, or perhaps she just wanted to make him happier; Ruoyi didn't know.

But Feja was the only friend she didn't want to lose.

Days passed by like this.

Fortunately, in the third and fifth grade class reshuffle, Kawakami Wakana and Fyodor were in the same class. She could continue to maintain her relationship with Fyodor.

However, as she grew older, Wakana Kawakami discovered that she was actually afraid.

She was afraid that Feda would also find her annoying, just like everyone else.

She was afraid that if she reopened Fedia's wounds, Fedia would be reluctant to continue associating with her as before.

But she dared not say anything about it.

Because Ruoyi was afraid that once she spoke out, just like with Jasmine, things would never be the same again.

Speaking of which...

Does Fei Jia really need herself?

In fifth grade, eleven-year-old Ruoyi, who had just entered puberty, had this question.

As she thought this, she looked at the girl sitting in the corner.

In the first semester of fifth grade, the new homeroom teacher said that this child's situation was somewhat special, and that he was not as successful as others in any aspect of his life.

That's true. She often loses things, makes a mess of herself and her surroundings while eating school lunch, often can't answer questions from teachers, and her grades are terrible.

Although her classmates would help her, Ruoyi always felt that it was no different from ordinary people giving money to someone performing on the street.

In the second semester of fifth grade, the science teacher announced in class that there would be a group project. The group list was randomly assigned by the teacher.

When the group assignment list was handed out, Kawakami Wakai stared blankly at where her name was.

she……

Are you in the same group as that girl with special circumstances?

[Author's Note]

This "if" scenario is expected to be completed in three chapters!

But I'm a little uncertain about this progress, damn it.
