Start By Becoming A Mangaka
Chapter 82: Book

Tomohiro Nagatsuka is the best friend of Ishida. He is the first person that talks to Ishida as an equal and is quick to call him a best friend.

Nagatsuka peeked the interaction between Yuuki, Shouko, and Ishida from afar. He was really worried about his best friend. He didn't expect there was a black knight protecting Shouko. In appearance-wise, he knew his best friend couldn't beat Yuuki at all.

"Grrr, what are they talking about?" Nagatsuka was very curious, he looked around and saw Yuzuru peeked them with her camera.

"Hey, Shounen, can you let me see it?" Nagatsuka took her camera and peeked them. (He thought Yuzuru was a boy).

"Hey!!" Yuzuru was pissed but let him take her camera.

Nagatsuka looked at them moving their hands randomly, he frowned his eyebrow, "What are they doing?"

"That's sign language," Yuzuru said.

"You understand them! Interpret it for me, Shounen!" Nagatsuka was excited.

Yuzuru shook her head and interpret their conversation for him.

Yuuki, Shouko, and Ishida were standing in the bridge near the community. Yuuki looked around the bridge, he was quite curious about this bridge since it was very memorable from 'Koe no Katachi' anime.

[Yuuki, this is Ishida from my elementary school], Shouko introduced him.

Yuuki nodded, "Hello, my name is Yuuki."

Ishida gulped and felt less nervous in front of him, "Yea-yeah, my name is Ishida."

Yuuki had never asked Shouko about her bullying in her elementary school, even though he knew it he couldn't chase Ishida away, he knew that Shouko had the heart of an angel. He would think it was her fault for everything was happening. He almost wanted to strangle him when he met this Ishida but he held himself, though, he would call Ryuu to drown him in Tokyo Bay if he did something terrible to her.

Yuuki observed them quietly, they were talking about the meaning of friends, for him a friend was simple it was companionship. They would be there in both your success and your downfall. It was very priceless, he had something like that in his past life. He thought for a while, in this life almost all his friends were girls.

'Well? A girl is nicer,' Yuuki didn't think much about it. If he met he would meet if he didn't then it was okay. He turned his head and noticed both Nagatsuka and Yuzuru were peeking on them. He smiled and waved his hand making them startled and hid. He didn't mind to have a male friend like Nagatsuka, he was both funny and loyal. He remembered when Nagatsuka became the first person Ishida trusted on his life.

Yuuki looked at both Nagatsuka and Yuzuru until someone tucked his shirt.

"Hmm?" Yuuki turned his head and saw Shouko giving him some of the french bread, "For me," Shouko nodded at him.

Yuuki smiled and patted her head, "Thank you," he looked at Ishida, "You don't mind, if I take some?"

"Pl-please!" Ishida said.

"Thank you," Yuuki nodded.

They were feeding the carp in the river, this was his first time to do something like this. It was a relaxing activity for him.

Yuuki kept feeding the carp until someone tucked his shirt, he turned his head and saw Shouko showing him an old book which looked very ugly. He titled his head at her and pointed his finger at him.

"Do you want me to read it together?" Shouko nodded in response.

Yuuki didn't think much until he saw the words written inside this book. It was very terrible, there were many words like, 'DIE!! DUMB!! STUPID!!', veins appeared on his forehead. He wanted to take this book but Ishida slapped it and it fall to the river.

"HA!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!!" Yuuki grabbed his collar and angry. Watching a movie and saw it in real life was different, he didn't expect her bullying would be this harsh. He wanted to beat the guy in front of him .

"Nishimiya!!" His scream made Yuuki awoke and saw Shouko was trying to jump into the river.

SPLASH

"SHOUKO, WAIT!!" Yuuki was too late, he let Ishida's collar and jumped into the river too.

SPLASH

"You too!!" Ishida was startled but also jumped into the river.

SPALSH

"THEY JUMP INTO THE RIVER!!!!" Yuzuru and Nagatsuka were startled.

Yuuki jumped into the river and hurriedly went up to help Shouko. He had seen this scene several times in his past life but it was scared him to see it in his life. He hugged her as if afraid for her to do something stupid again.

Yuuki wiped the water on her chin and raised her face, "Don't do something stupid again." He looked straight into her eyes.

Shouko was blushing and nodded at him, "Yea-ah!" It was her first time to see this kind of expression from him, usually, Yuuki was smiling around her, she didn't expect for him to show this expression to her. She was wondering if she was worthy for him.

Yuuki didn't notice her blush and emotion within her mind, he was so scared when he saw Shouko to jump into the river. He hugged her and sighed in relief.

Yuuki helped her to get out from the river, he was afraid she would get a cold after this stunt.

"Nishimiya, this," Yuuki felt annoyed when he saw Ishida gave this curse book again to her.

"Fu-" Yuuki wanted to curse him but Shouko stopped him, "Bu-" Shouko shook her head and told him taht she would bring this book home.

"Tch," Yuuki was pissed, he saw her told Ishida 'see you', he shook his head, he had never someone this kind before, he would probably kill this Ishida if there was no Shouko around him.

"Le-leeats goo," Shouko tucked his shirt.

"Yeah, let's go," Yuuki held her hand and brought her away from here. He didn't want to meet this guy again in the future.

Yuuki walked side by side with Shouko, he asked her, "Why do you keep that book?" What was written inside that book was nothing more than cursing from everyone in her elementary school. He didn't know why she was trying to keep that kind of book.

Shouko didn't answer him and could only smile at him.

Yuuki sighed at her and patted her head again, he was around her now, he wouldn't let anyone hurt her.

"Don't worry, whatever is happening, I'll always be with you." Yuuki said.

"Uhn," Shouko said happily while looking at his face, "Buuut doun't fiight wiiith Ishija again!" She tried to reprimand him and made him twitch his lips. He didn't expect for her to reprimand him.

Two of them were talking happily on the way back to her home, thought, there were someone who stalking them.

"Nee-chan."
