Chapter 239: Escorting the Four Girls



Chapter 239: Escorting the Four Girls

When I went back to class during the start of the 7th Period, I felt the questioning gazes of not only my four girls but also everyone in class. They’re surely wondering where I went when the PE ended an hour early.

I ignored the others but to Satsuki, Aya, Nami and Mori, I messaged them all instead of talking to them one by one. Their responses were all the same though. They already deduced that I’m with some other girl so instead of the usual ‘Where did I run off to’, they’re asking who I am with.

Because they were all somehow busy during lunch, they thought they could spend time with me after the PE ended early. However, the agreement with Rae was already scheduled.

Since Rae hasn’t expressed rejection at knowing my other girls and they all wanted to know who I spent more than an hour with, I told them her name and class.

Apart from Aya who already met Rae during her visit at the Literature Club and Satsuki who asked me about her last week after the first fulfillment of the agreement, Nami and Mori knew her only as someone who I knocked out during that dodgeball game.

However, Nami instantly deduced when I started targeting her after hearing her name. From her seat, she sent me a somewhat smug smirk.

Upon seeing that, I got the urge to walk towards her seat and pinch her cheeks due to how cute she looked.

Err… So after that, they finally settled down. Not really settled down but at least, they stopped asking about her.

When the 7th period ended, all four of them stayed behind and waited for me. Aya and Satsuki staying behind is almost normal since I both walk them to their clubs but today Nami and even Mori stayed behind to have me walk them as well.

It will be too eye-catching to walk with four attractive girls so instead of taking them all at once, I could only ask Satsuki and Aya to wait for me at the entrance of the School Building. I will need to stay a bit at the Book Club after all. Mina gave me a chance today and I also want to see Himeko’s condition after yesterday.

Sakuma already went to his club without telling us like before. From all that had happened, I would be amazed if he could still keep a straight face in front of us. But yeah, that guy will probably come around when he sorted out his feelings and gave up completely on Satsuki.

According to Satsuki, her sister’s interest in Sakuma was reignited after meeting him again and they’re probably talking on Messenger now.

For me, that could be called good news since he’ll be more focused on her rather than mull over his feelings for Satsuki.

He already lost the game when he finally decided to act. As a saving grace for how he kept treating me as a friend even if I’m doing things behind his back, I can cheer on him on making that work with Satsuki’s sister.

Ogawa was pulled over by their group of friends to go to their club so he’s not a problem anymore even if the two girls stayed behind.

As for Chii, she already left the room and went somewhere. Now that I think about it, I don’t know what club she joined in yet. I can’t find the chance to ask her. Our longest interaction is during today’s PE Class.

“Ruu, will you visit our club? It’s been a while since I introduced you to them. Saki-chan and the others kept asking me to bring you again.”

“If Ruki visits again, don’t you think something bad will happen?”

Nami asked along the way and before I could answer, Mori interjected with a question.

We’re already on the way to their clubroom. After that first act of us, we never had another chance to do it again and now, Nami and Mori are already mine.

Though Ogawa probably wants to talk about that Acting we were supposed to do for him, to have the time he can spend with Nami, after confusing him last Sunday, I don’t think he finished gathering his thoughts yet. He’s still as confused as to what he will do with his suspicion.

Well, Nami’s acts were already growing bolder and bolder that she stopped minding what Ogawa would think. Some of it felt like she’s blatantly showing him our relationship so that he could take a hint that it’s already over for them.

Perhaps, they really needed that time for her to finally finish it with him. Visiting their club again will really provide that chance to reveal our relationship to him.

“It will not be that bad. You saw how we acted back then, everything was real. Alright, I will visit again but not today, maybe next week. Is it fine for you, Nami?”

Upon hearing my answer, Nami nodded happily while Mori somehow deflated.

Nami noticed that expression of hers so while we went up the stairs, she moved next to Mori and talked to her.

“We can handle ourselves, Hina. Are you worried that you won’t have a chance with him if he visits the club again?”

“…”

From how Mori stiffened and failed to answer, it’s quite clear that Nami hit the bullseye there. So to settle her down, while we’re still out of anyone’s eyes, I grabbed her hand and squeezed it to assure her.

“If that’s what you’re worried about, do you still remember our plan?”

The spending time with me during the swap. Back during the First Act, I was left with the only choice of leaving her alone after her clear rejection of my advances to her. Now that I will be visiting their club again, we can now have part two of that moment while I let Nami talk to Ogawa first before the reveal.

When I said that, Nami glanced at me and nodded. She somehow understood my intention.

This observer girl could understand me most of the time. That saves us the time to bring it up during one of our conversations.

Of course, we still needed to talk about it to plan how it would go. Also to plan for the aftermath.

That might become the trigger for Ogawa’s change or he will just drown in depression for losing Nami? I don’t know. It’s much better if the latter happens.

Soon enough, we reached their clubroom. Before opening the door to enter, The two of them asked for a moment and brought me to a corner wherein they both took their turn to ask for a kiss.

At first, Mori was reluctant letting Nami see it but after reminding her that Satsuki and Aya were still waiting for me at the School Building, she resolved herself and kissed me on her own initiative.

Upon seeing that, Nami put on an amused expression on her face. As to what she was thinking, she never told me about it.

“Now then, see you two tomorrow. Message me when you’re about to go home, if I’m free at that time then I’ll come and walk you two.”

Leaving those words to them, the somewhat awkward mood which built up earlier cleared up. Nami happily entered their clubroom and while it’s not that noticeable, Mori also had a smile on her lips.

Only when the door closed again did turn around and walk back to the School Building to escort Satsuki and Aya to their clubroom.

“You’re a bit late, Ruki. They asked for a moment, am I right?”

When we reached the usual side door of the Gymnasium, Satsuki asked whereas Aya was also looking at me, waiting for my answer.

“Your skill at deduction has leveled up Satsuki.”

Phrasing my admittance to her question that way made Aya giggle cutely. Satsuki, on the other hand, glared at me as if she was wronged by my words.

“It’s easy to deduce idiot. Knowing you, you will not reject us if we ask you.”

Ah. Since I got this chance to tease this girl, I will not let this pass.

“What if it’s me who asks you? Will you not reject me?”

“Uhh… Do I need to answer?”

“I will not reject it. I want a moment with Ruki too…”

Satsuki’s tsundere trait kicked up again while Aya openly admitted to it.

“Of course, I missed my Aya. I will take that moment with you later. As for Satsuki, I guess she doesn’t want it.”

I wore a bitter smile and shook my head. After that, I put my arms around Aya’s waist and turned around, acting as if we’re about to leave.

“Ugh… This idiot. Come with me!”

While stomping her feet, Satsuki grabbed the back of my collar and pulled me near the side door where she instantly locked her lips with mine. Ignoring the fact that Aya was with us.

Aya, who was watching that act of Satsuki, continued giggling as she was really amused at her.

The tsundere lost to the teasing again, eh?
