Stealing Spree

Glorified cuckolds or those who truly possessed that kind of fetish are few and often hide their degeneracy beneath a normal exterior. You won't really be able to discover it unless they show it on the surface.

As for this guy who I couldn't bother remembering the name of, it's actually good that Ohori-senpai found out about his fetish in that way. While it tormented her for days or weeks, the way she realized it saved her from considering granting his wish to be cucked by her.

Because she was blindly in love with him, if he talked to her about it instead of keeping it to himself while idiotically showing how he's cheating on her, there was definitely a chance for the girl to do that.

That's why… It's kind of a relief that he's that terrible at planning how to satisfy his fetish.

pαпdα-ň?νê|·сóМ "Ohori-senpai, can I say something?" After rearranging my thoughts and ultimately deciding to extend my helping hand to her, I guided her head up and looked straight into her trembling eyes. I put on my usual expression; a little cold and indifferent yet solely focused on her, to maximize the effect of what I wanted to achieve.

It's effective.

Ohori-senpai timidly nodded as she waited for what I was about to say. However, before I started, she opened her mouth and talked with a cracked voice.

"Onoda-kun, I… I don't want to trouble you about this. I just thought to update you after all the help you've done…"

This girl… For what it's worth, I could easily notice that she's not being wholly truthful with that. If I had to guess, Ohori-senpai didn't want me to see her as a damsel in distress asking her white knight (me) for help. She still held onto her pride or this was just a case of her trying to stand up for herself after being proven wrong.

Whichever the case, I've already come to a decision.

"Mhm. I understand and I'm glad you updated me. I'm only hearing small updates from Aoi, or what she observes from you. Now that I heard that it turned into a situation where it's almost impossible for your words to reach him, I don't mind lending you a helping hand. But that's only if you're up for it, senpai."

Of course, if that guy found out about this meeting, he'd surely indulge himself in another fantasy that we were meeting constantly behind his back.

That's why even if I said I would help, appearing in front of him again to teach him another lesson would be the last resort.

After deliberating for a while, Ohori-senpai weakly hung her head as she muttered her answer in difficulty, "If you said it like that, I'll be the prideful girl if I reject your help, right? Uhm… This isn't me disparaging you but I think I can finally understand why Aoi eventually chose to be with you even if you're juggling her between your other girlfriend."

"Well, I don't know if you're praising me or not but let's leave it at that. For now, let's go somewhere else to talk. It would be bad if he spotted us here, right?"

"Y-you're right… I owe you again this time, Onoda-kun."

"Hmm? Don't mind it. I'm helping you out of my own selfishness. Aoi will be sad if you continue suffering because of that guy."

Upon saying that, I turned to the opposite direction we came from and started walking. Ohori-senpai looked like she still had something to say but reined it in and followed me in silence.

Upon moving from that alley, we went to a coffee shop – not the one with a bakery where I bought Mizuki's meat buns. It's located past the park where I often meet my girls.

The place was bustling with customers but with the interior designed specifically for those who wanted privacy, it's the perfect place for this conversation. Even if nearby customers heard us, they wouldn't bother eavesdropping. 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

Anyway, it's already been ten minutes and our coffee that we ordered was already half-empty.

To fully understand her situation and what she actually wanted to do, I let her talk first while I listened attentively, picking up the details and arranging them in my head.

Ohori-senpai had just finished listing everything she wanted to say so while she's taking another sip of her coffee, I summarized everything in my head.

"So, senpai. Let's go over everything again… You still wished to talk to him in a civilized way and end your relationship. You also wanted him to understand that nothing happened between us that day. And lastly, if possible, you don't want to expose his fetish in public. Please correct me if I got something wrong." I said while slightly leaning towards her from across the table.

Ohori-senpai timidly nodded once again. As she slowly lowered her cup, the girl released a rather heavy sigh. "That sounds like I'm trying to protect him…"

"Mhm. I won't deny that. You seem to still care about him a lot. But well, it's not that unrealistic. You loved him enough to even try to understand why he's cheating on you. That's not something that would disappear overnight."

"Ugh. I really lost my head to him, huh? I wish I could go back to before meeting him." Shaking her head bitterly, Ohori-senpai then stared at the void, perhaps remembering her past where she hadn't been tied to him emotionally yet.

"Unfortunately, there's no going back to the past so… we can only accept what happened and look forward to the future." I said as I pulled her attention back to me by poking her cheek.

Ohori-senpai adorably puffed up her cheeks and tried to glare at me but upon seeing the smile plastered on my lips, she quickly deflated and simply rested her back on her seat.

In a way, that successfully dispersed some of her gloominess. And although I could tease her to further lighten the mood, I lacked the time for that.

I let a few seconds pass by before placing my elbow on the table and resting my chin on my fingers, taking on a serious stance.

"Let's see. It's uncertain whether we can accomplish everything you wanted to do, senpai. First, if he's as deluded as you described him to be, you need to catch him while he's not alone. It's impossible to talk to him alone anymore. You gotta do it when he's around his friends."

"Second, you also have to bring someone with you. That way, even if his friends interfere, you won't be intimidated by them in case they take his side. As much as I want to be the one there for you, it's impossible so… I suggest telling Aoi about this." I continued.

Ohori-senpai straightened up her back and listened attentively. However, when I mentioned Aoi, she instantly reacted by shaking her head and looking ashamed…

"I… Can't I do it alone? I'm going to break up with him after the talk so…"

"Senpai, you said it yourself. He's brushing you off whenever you're trying. So no, you cannot do it alone. I can already see you faltering halfway through or he's just going to walk away. And if you're already certain about breaking up with him… I also suggest you open your conversation with that… Send him a message saying the same line too. That way, he won't be able to run away."

Observing her from my seat, she's really struggling. Nonetheless, I could certainly say that her considerations were skewed to begin with. Even if she didn't mention it, she's still influenced by her feelings for the guy… I could've taken up Aoi's suggestion before to make her fall for me but I doubt it will be effective if she's too lovestruck like this.

That's why… this was a lot better. Forcing her to change her approach.

"… Okay. I'll call Aoi." Although it took Ohori-senpai a while to digest my words and suggestions, she eventually gave a positive reply.

But to her surprise, even before she could bring out her phone, my unruly girl stepped out of the blind spot and stood before our table.

"No need, Ohori-nee. I'm already here. Thank you for messaging me, darling."

Upon saying that, she hopped on the seat next to me and hugged me affectionately before looking at her older friend.

Naturally, Ohori-senpai was stuck speechless. Her eyes widened in surprise before throwing me an accusatory glance.

"I apologize, senpai. I sent her a message when I went to get our coffee. Like that guy, I also don't want you to run away from this. Aoi cares a lot about you so… please talk to each other." I raised my hands guiltily.

However, Aoi being Aoi, the girl took this chance to press herself further as if she didn't want to let me go while sweetly whispering, "I miss you a lot, darling."

Ohori-senpai who had the front seat to this scene couldn't help but giggle at her friend's silliness.

Mhm. Before these two can talk, I have another job to do first. Doting on my girl.
