Marilyn Likes Lariensa Too Much!

Chapter 36

Forgetting that Emily was about to open the door now, I made way for Sio and hurriedly hid behind the bookshelf closest to the door.

Bang!

The door, which had not been locked, opened with a booming sound.

“Oh, it’s not Marilyn.”

Although Sibel is her favorite among B4, Hailey still came forward with a shy look as Sio was also a member of the B4.

“Excuse me, Sio. Did a red-haired girl come inside here?”

“……”

Sio shook his head instead of answering. The girls questioned him further because they didn’t believe him, but he just shook his head every time.

You really don’t say a word to other people… it’s understandable why many people misunderstood you for not talking at all.

Is saying ‘no’ to me already you being nice to me?

“I don’t think she’s really in here.”

“See. Marilyn won’t hide in the library, no matter how desperate she is.”

I’ve never read a book ever since I came to this world because I was so busy with all the things happening, but I read a lot of books when I was in Korea, you know?!

“Sigh… One must read a lot to become a great person like me.”

Natalie, all you just read were romance novels! I know you secretly bring an R-18 book with you back to the dorm every time you went out…

You traitors!

Anyway, thanks to Sio, those girls left the library without doubt.

I never thought I’d be helped by Sio Owens…

“Huu… thank you, you saved my life.”

“……”

“Can I stay here for a while?”

“……”

Sio did not answer. In fact, I didn’t even need an answer. Even if he’s the chairman’s son, the whole library in the academy isn’t his.

So I thought it would be much better to just stay in the library than go out and be chased by them.

It’s all because of that Sibel Nouma Khan!

The title of a book on the bookshelf suddenly caught my eye.

…Is this a sign from the heavens to read a book now after?

How in the world did I come across a book that I need by chance like this? I should borrow this book!

But isn’t the book next to it also good?

I should borrow this too!

And this!

It was actually my first time in the library alone ever since I warned Lariensa to avoid Sio Owens, the last member of B4.

For that reason, the library bookshelves that I saw for the first time were overflowing with books worth reading.

“…You.”

With my arms full of books, someone called unto me. It was Sio.

“What?”

“You said you two were close.”

“With whom?”

“……”

“With Sibel?”

Sio nodded.

“……”

You brought the topic up first. So what do you want to ask?!

As of this moment, I can feel how amazing Lariensa is in the novel for actively approaching Sio despite him being like this…

As expected, my Lara is amazing!

“…harassing…”

“Sibel, to me?”

Sio nodded again. Ugh! So frustrating! I’ll look for a book on how to have a proper conversation with a taciturn person later.

“You’re asking if Sibel is harassing me?”

“……”

“Ahh, is it because those girls were chasing after me?”

Of course, it was really his fault why I’m being chased by them right now.

“We’re friends.”

“Yes.”

“So why harass you?”

I think he’s asking why Sibel, who’s supposedly my friend, makes me be chased around like this.

Although they’ve known each other for a longer time than I do, there may be parts of him that he still doesn’t know because he’s not that close to him.

“Because Sibel is a yandere.”

[T/N: Yandere is a person who will go to near-extreme to extreme lengths to be in or deepen a desired relationship, whether it be romantic, platonic, familial, etc (Urban Dictionary: Yandere, 2019)]

Such characteristic of Sibel is enough to turn <You in the Dark> into a degenerate novel.

If it weren’t for Sibel, I’d surely have a happy academy life by now.

“The heck…”

You really don’t speak more than two words that much, do you?

“He’s like this… “if you don’t look at me, I’ll break you down and make you only see me!” that kind of guy.”

“……”

“…Do you not understand?”

“Wrong.”

“I’m wrong?”

Sio nodded. Ohh, look at this guy?

I’ve never liked how Sibel was so hooked on me but seeing that determined tone of Sio made me feel better.

“You might not know, but Sibel really really likes me, you know?”

“Wrong.”

“No, it’s not.”

“Wrong.”

“I’m really not lying!”

“So sad.”

“You, really!”

Looking at his expression, he certainly doesn’t mean to tease me, but he rarely keeps his mouth open for a long time.

“That guy… he enjoys seeing people suffer.”

Oh my!

I still can’t get used to the fact that he’s opening his mouth.

“There’s no way he’s going to like someone.”

“And how do you know that?”

“……”

“You never know what the future holds.”

I didn’t mean to cover for Sibel. But even in the original story, Sibel loved Lariensa. Although, he used violent methods to attain it.

“Then, you’ll die.”

“I’m not going to die.”

“…You’ll suffer.”

“Thank you for worrying about me, but I’m not going to suffer.

I then pointed to the thick books on the desk.

“I’m going to study hard from now on, and I’m no amateur, you know?”

I’ve read almost all types of fictional novels including those who have a scum as the main character in my time back then! Sibel was the worst, but I have various indirect experiences with all sorts of psycho male characters in my arsenal!

Other people might think it’s not best to rewrite the story, but I have no other option here.

Either I rewrite it or reject him directly.

Although there are two options, rejecting him would definitely make me tread on the death route!

“That’s right, Sio. Is it true that Sibel went inside the haunted house during the festival to look for you?”

The haunted house where I talked with Sio for the first time… I was supposed to find Sibel in there.

It was uncomfortable running into him in such a place.

Sure enough, Sio’s complexion grew dark.

“Since there’s a festival, it’s so noisy…”

“So you went inside the haunted house to sleep quietly?”

“……”

This time, he nodded.

“So Sibel went there to look for you?”

He nodded again.

“Why?”

“……”

Now, he was just silent.

Okay, I’ll give you a nickname. From now on, Sio, you are Mr. Nodder!

Well, let me think about it. Why did Sibel bother to search for Mr. Nodder in the original story?

Hmmm… I can’t think of any reason. I guess I won’t know unless something is revealed.

In the novel, nothing was known or revealed about Sibel’s past.

…That’s right, I need to know more about Sibel.

“Sio… Perhaps, do you know–…”

But before I finished talking…

Bang!

“Found her.”

“I was right to search again in here!”

My friends and other members of the Sisamo suddenly came in.

“Hey, guys… wait a minute!”

“There’s no time. Get her out!”

I still wanted to ask him something!

However, Sio couldn’t now help me this time. So he just stared at me leaning on the bookshelf as I was being dragged out by the people around me.

…And what I experienced on that day was pure hell.

“SAVE ME!!!”

This is all because of that bastard!

＊＊＊

“You only appear when I say good things to you, Sibel Nouma!”

Tortured harshly by my friends and the Sisamo, I went looking for Sibel with my hair in a mess.

If you’re still angry about something, talk to me then. Hit me in the back of my head like this!

“You bastard! Come out right now!”

This black-hearted guy always looks down at everything from above. I have a feeling that he’s looking at me from the rooftop…

Flip!

I turned my head to the clock tower. And there I could see Sibel Nouma Khan smiling and waving at me.

“You… stay where you are!”

After pointing my finger at him at the clock tower, I ran to the clock tower with a runny nose.

I’ve always thought about this… but climbing the clock tower is so hard! I’ll run out of energy first before I can take revenge on him…

“UGHHHH…!”

Before, I would have gone up to the top even if it was hard, but now I was very tired after being tortured earlier.

From my neck to my armpits to the soles of my feet! It’s like there’s a bug crawling around me from their tickling… EUUUGH! Just imagining it is terrifying.

In addition, they were filming an eating show in front of me…

Where the heck did these students get chicken and pork when it’s not even lunchtime? I almost died of the smell.

In the end, I was physically and emotionally exhausted.

When I was about to take my last step, I slipped and slowly fell down.

Thud.

Someone lightly touched the back of my head on the floor. As I struggled to raise my head, this damn Sibel was looking down at me.

“You look so pretty.”

“…Thanks for the compliment.”

I came here to argue with him because I was angry, but I just used up all my energy to climb the stairs.

Lying down and looking up at Sibel, I noticed this wicked guy’s hair was trimmed neatly. He then withdraws his hand in an exaggerated manner as if he had realized something.

“Is this also considered sexual assault?”

He really holds grudges for a long time…

“You wicked…”

“You have to say good things. I kept my promise.”

“What?”

“You told me that if ever I felt upset, I should just talk to you.”

“……”

“That’s why I just vented it to you.”

How can you say such a cruel thing with an angelic smile?

Don’t be fooled, members of the Sisamo!

‘We will never give our handsome, sweet, and kind-hearted Sibel to you!’

I admit that he’s handsome, but is he sweet and kind to everyone?

You guys are being fooled!

“Guess what I’m upset about.”

“You’re still angry at me going on a date with someone I just meet at my first matchmaking party?”

Sibel, who had his hand on his chin, smiled softly with his eyes.

“That’s one thing. However, I’m upset because Lycan does not need to pretend not to know you in front of other people, and also Sio. I’m the only one who gets treated differently as if I’m a patient with an infectious disease that you don’t even want to get touched by me.”

Although he’s smiling like an angel, let’s not forget guys. That’s the look Sibel makes when he’s really angry!

“How do you know I talked to Mr. Nodder?”

“Mr. Nodder? Ahh, that’s a good nickname for such a stupid guy like him.”

I thought it was a cute nickname. It sounds like a curse when Sibel says it… maybe I’ll just keep that myself.

“The bottom line is, you want me to talk to you openly in front of others, so you did that?”

“Now that you understand, it’s worth the long explanation.”

“So are you going to talk to me in front of other people from now on?”

“Yes.”

“But I’ll be continuously harassed by my friends and members of the Sisamo every time because of it.”

“So what?”

“Why don’t we just remain the status quo – pretending not to know each other just like before?”

“I don’t think I can continue pretending when I already know you well.”

“Then what about those girls from the Sisamo?”

“You’ll just have to handle it.”

“You are so…!”

The devil inside me whispered,

Let’s just close our eyes and hit Sibel hard. I’d rather go to the death route with peace of mind rather than be so frustrated by the current situation!

But the angel inside me dissuaded it.
