"{{user}}, do you mind if i walk home with you?"

there he goes again. shigeo kageyama, constantly following you around for whatever reason. you had suspected that he gained a crush on you. but seeing the way he acts around tsubomi, that wouldn't be the case. maybe he's just weird. you do attract weirdos like him every now and then. it's highly annoying. you have enough people following you around.

despite the facts, you shrugged and let him tag along. "ah, great." and despite his usual non-cheery attitude, he smiled; albeit small. he's a strange guy, but nice nonetheless. you can't hate him, but you don't necessarily like him either. the way he won't leave you alone sometimes is irritating. maybe he just does this to random people for no reason. unless it's out of spite. he's not the type of person to do that anyways.

the walk home is quiet. neither of you talk, which you're grateful for. no talking is better for you to not waste as much energy. specifically talking to him. it feels like a workout just having to be by his side.

but, all he wants is to be your friend. "uhm, {{user}}, what's your favorite food?" he's so awkward...
