Volume 2 - CH 15

I, Shoryu Kiryu, am in my apartment.

But I wasn't in my own condo.

Then, where was I? It's...

"I am embarrassed to live here alone with you...."

"You need not be so formal! You and I are buddies, aren't we?"

"No, we're just colleagues from work. You and I aren't like that…”

"No way! Were you just playing with me? I was being so serious!"

"Idiot, I am serious! ... I am telling you we aren't like that! I will kick you out of my room if you keep saying that!"

Yes, I was at Hishinuma-san's house next door.

It's more like I was taking shelter here.

The reason why I had to decide to do so was that I was startled after I checked the message of Hishinumai-san's email which read: "I have seen your girlfriend come and go from your room."

I was shocked after reading the message.

I'd never dreamed that Sarasa-san would break into my room.

So, in the middle of the day after leaving the college, to ensure my safety, I asked Hishinuma-san to let me stay in her room for the time being.

Of course, I had already contacted the police.

"Your ex-girlfriend is quite troublesome. The fact that she even made a duplicate key is creeping me out."

"That... I don't know what she now wants from me after being so cold and distant in the past."

The police were already busy investigating the issue of trespassing, but I don't expect them to yield any results.

As she had already left.

I don't know whether she had fled in a hurry after seeing the police, or had other purposes for it. However, it made me feel a sense of crisis.

"Anyway, please feel free to rest in my room. Just for your kind information, don't do anything... strange, okay?"

"Eh? What do you mean by saying 'Don't do anything strange?"

"What else would I mean? uh... like, naughty things?"

"I'm a gentleman!"

"Hmm... Yes, a gentleman who would... peep while I change clothes."

"I'm sorry!"

I apologized by bowing my head. I didn't know what else to say.

Even though it was a pure accident, she was indeed the victim whom I peeping upon. I could only turn silent.

"But, is it okay to invite me into your room? I am a man, after all."

"Uh? What's wrong with that?"

"No, I just wanted to apologize if you had a boyfriend or something..."

"Eh? Are you picking up a fight with me?"

"Oh, I'm sorry about that."

Hmm... Hishinuma-san doesn't seem to have a boyfriend.

I'll take note of it.

"But, yes. I'm indeed a little worried. You're also a man... It's quite risky for me..."

Hishinuma-san's cheeks reddened and she said it while squirming.

Hmm... it would not be a mistake to say that Hishinuma-san is certainly one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

"It's okay, senpai. I would make sure not to make any mistakes."

"Could you tell me why you're so sure of not making any mistakes?"

"I can't go out with my senpai, can I? haha!"

"Geez, It's annoying the way you said that. Am I not attractive enough for you?"

"Because you have a chunky body... Huh? You're heading to the kitchen... oh no, Why are you holding a knife in your hand...?

"Fufufu..."

"I'm sorry! I'm extremely sorry!"

"No, I would never forgive you."

After I misspoke, I had to incur the wrath of Hishinuma-san and got severely punished. It would be better if you don't ask me what the punishment is.

"Well... Do you know what he said?. He didn't want to be in a relationship. That's just ridiculous! I don't think that romance is just a play. Hey, junior!"

"Ah, well, you're right..."

Why did this have to happen?

I was having a drink with Hishinuma-san, but after a few drinks, she was already like this.

I was surprised to know that she was a bit of a jerk.

I was shocked to find out that she had begun to chat about romantic things with me when we hadn't even met for so long. And for some reason, she was strangely grinning at me.

"Junior-kun, are you even listening to what I’m saying?"

"Oh, yes. I'm listening... But, didn't we already drink too much alcohol?"

"Shut up! Are you saying you can't have a drink with me?"

She is badly drunk.

If I am dealing with something like this, I would probably get drunk and fall asleep, but as Hishinuma-san is here, it would be no good.

"Hey! Junior. Do you really like Ashizawa-san?”

"I'm so sick of her!... Just kidding! "

"Hmm, I see. I see."

I was actually surprised to be asked such a question out of the blue, but when I told her how I really felt, she started to grin.

I have a very bad premonition about this.

There are many things a drunk person can do in a situation like this.

"Then... what do you think of me?"

"Then... what do you think of me?"

I’m not sure how to reply to her.

Hishinuma-san's cheeks reddened and her face leaned closer to me with a melting look in her eyes as she asked me such a question.

Her face must be red because she was so drunk.

It must be so.

On the contrary, her womanly scent and alcohol smell made my head feel a little dizzy.

I must also be pretty drunk too.

"What do you mean...?"

"Do you like me or hate me? Which one is it?"

"Well, then I'd say somewhere in between."

"Do you like or hate me? Which one is it?"

Hmm? What's wrong?

Could it be that she couldn't hear what I'm saying?

Or are those the only two choices I have?

Whichever I choose, it would still be troublesome for me.

"Do you like me? You like me, right?"

I wasn't even given a chance to choose an option!

A game with a single choice. Could it even be called a game?

Well, it isn't time to joke about that.

"You like it, right? Say you like me."

The pressure was so great on me a while ago!

I've been trying to get away from Hishinuma-san, but she grabbed me by both of my cheeks, giving me no way to escape.

"Well, um,..., by the way, what happens if I say I like you?"

"So you're telling me that you like me. Then, you and I will be lovers from now on! We can even have s*x right here."

"Then, What if I say I hate you?”

"I'll force myself on you. Then, we will officially become lovers.”

"It doesn't matter which one I choose!"

Does that mean Hishinuma-san likes me?

Well, I don't think she would have gone this far if she didn't like me. But it seems like she's talking just because she was already drunk which led to the current situation.

Honestly, it's quite troublesome.

"Oh, you just thought it was troublesome, didn't you?"

"Are you an esper?"

"Just now you made such a face. That's okay, just say whether you like me or not.”

“...”

I was only left with a single choice.

Of course, It didn't mean that I dislike Hishinuma-san. I think she's a good person from what I've seen over the past few days.

She's worth teasing, and a lot of fun to be around.

I don't dislike her.

"Well, You don't hate me, do you? Then does that mean you like me?"

"Well, I treat you as a friend."

"En, I like you too! Well, I guess we're lovers now!"

"Did you not hear what I just said?"

I mean, she just confessed to me.

Is it only because she was drunk, right?

"It's okay. Why don't you try it out with me?"

"Didn't you say that... love isn't something to be taken lightly?"

"Well, I did say that. But you know what? Isn't impulse also equally important?"

"Isn't that because you're drunk...?"

"It doesn't matter. I had already triggered it. What's more important is that it's fun to be with you. I feel comfortable with you. You make me excited. It feels good to be with you."

As I was hearing her words, I felt like I was listening to some crazy b*tchy comments in the second half, but I pretended like I didn't hear them at all.

As I was thinking over this, Hishinuma-san took off her jacket and pulled it off over her chest.

Her erotic underwear was clearly visible to me.

"What are you doing?"

"Uh? We can't have s*x unless I take my clothes off, right?"

"Yeah. But that's not the point! I have never told you that we're lovers!"

"Does that sound strange that I want to become your lover just based on my feelings? Why don't we try it out..."

Hishinuma-san's eyes were staring at me like a beast. I could even hear a rough breath from her.

Did she really want to do it with him?

Does she turn into a sl*t when she's drunk?

As a man, this is an exciting development, but is it really okay for me to allow it?

It's a shame for a man not to eat the served dish.

I'm such a bastard, aren't I?

"I'm glad you feel that way... So, Is it possible to think about the rest after we do the deed?"

"Hmm? Okay. I invited you."

"Then, I need not hesitate."

"Ah~!"

As I got consent from her, I leaped onto Hishinuma-san like a wolf.

How did I feel? Yeah, it was very tight and felt really great. Our compatibility was in fact quite good.
