Chapter 60: New Day
Chapter 60: New Day
When morning came, Miwa-nee acted like nothing happened between us. Her situation was different with Shio. Shio already knew how much I want to steal her but Miwa-nee, she’s just brushing it off as a joke. I want her to know how serious I am.
Apart from taking care of Minoru, she kept on teasing the two of us. Especially when we did everything together, from exercising to cooking and bathing. Well, the teasing also included what we were doing in the bath that we took our time inside.
Now, it’s not only me and Akane living in this house but she didn’t seem to mind it. She’s fond of the little boy who somehow looked like his mother. She said the boy gives color to the somewhat sad atmosphere in the house when one of us isn’t home.
Leaving the house to the mother and son duo, we separated again from the ticket station. I won’t be able to see her until after school again. Ah. When will I get used to this? Maybe not ever, unless I turned this possessiveness to something else.
Maybe I should take her to a date this weekend. Right. Like going to a cinema or shopping, I’ll let her decide what we will do. Ah. I’ll tell her later about this so we can plan ahead. That will be our first official date.
Err. The thing with Yae couldn’t be called a date since we messed the order up. But yeah, I’ll let Yae think it was one, that girl was so happy from it.
Arriving at the classroom, most of the students haven’t arrived yet. Today we’ll have another PE class and this time with Class 4.
Err. That’s the class where that 1st year of the Literature Club is. Will she still slap me if I meet her later? Let’s hope not.
Among our group of four, I’m the first one, surprisingly Rindou hasn’t arrived yet. That girl, maybe she stayed up late to finish that book. Satsuki and Sakuma are probably at their clubs. I guess I’ll check my phone for now. When Harada comes, she will probably try and talk to me again.
There is a new mail from Otsuka-senpai that was sent yesterday. Maybe after we met upstairs.
“Onoda-kun, when I saw you two. You just finished having sex again, right?”
As I thought, this will be her question. This girl is always this curious. Ah. Maybe I should respond to her previous mail as well. She told me that she doesn’t like someone for now but there are 2 guys who’re trying to court her and as expected, she said that she felt hot and curious when she was watching us back then in the club.
“Didn’t you figure that out yesterday, senpai? Hmm what do you think? I’ve read your answer on my previous mail, you can ask me another question.”
After sending that message, I opened the Messenger app. To my surprise, Kanzaki finally has a new message. And there’s another new message request. Maybe from Harada or that girl with Mori yesterday? Ah. I’ll look later, Kanzaki’s message first.
“Onoda, sorry I only decided now when we should start. I’m still a bit nervous but when I saw you earlier surrounded by girls like that, I thought you might become busy soon.”
“So before all that, I want you to teach me. But make no mistake, there will be no practical lesson. You just need to tell me what to do in various situations.”
“Ah. Right, let’s do it this Wednesday, can you come with me to the library?”
Her message was cut into 3 parts and was sent yesterday. This girl. She thought I won’t have time to teach her anymore so she finally decided when to do it. But no practical lesson? That’s a shame. I thought I could steal her slowly through practical lessons.
“If there’s no practical lesson, isn’t it better to teach you here over chat?”
Kanzaki was already at her seat and when I sent my reply, she flinched again because of the sudden vibration. She took her phone out and typed her reply.
“No. I also thought of that but I don’t think I can learn a lot if it’s over here”
“I see. Then okay. I’ll go with you tomorrow. By the way, can you tell me who’s the guy you’re dating?”
“Huh? Why do you want to know?”
“Well, just curious. It’s fine if you don’t tell me.”
I can’t guess who it is, they’re too good at hiding it in class. They probably don’t interact here but only where no one can see or know them. Why are they this cautious?
“Sorry. I can’t tell you without his permission.”
“It’s fine. So, have you tried kissing again?”
“No, not yet. Not until after you teach me.”
“Ah. Why do you even want me to teach you? Isn’t it better to practice by yourselves?”
Right. I have to act like a good guy for now. Though she knew I was kissing Kana and maybe more. She didn’t talk about her again. This girl is too diligent. Does she want their kiss to be perfect at the start?
“I want it to be memorable for us. Since it will be our first.”
“Eh? I thought you’ve already done it before.”
“Not yet. We’re both too nervous.”
“I see. I’ll teach you well.”
I shouldn’t tell her that I want to steal her yet. Maybe after a few lessons. She might ask another lesson when they’re done with the kiss. Ah. Right. I will be acting as her tutor regarding those kinds of things between couples.
Now that I think of it, is the guy she’s dating someone shy? Who is it? Why can’t he take initiative? If he keeps doing that, he won’t know that I’ve already stolen his girl.
Ah. I shouldn’t worry about her guy. I have to prepare for those lessons.
Our exchange ended at that.
Next I opened the message request and saw that it really was from Harada.
“‘Sup Onoda!”
This girl. When she couldn’t get a response from me, this is where she turned.
Err. She said yesterday that she was drawn by my mysteriousness and I was like a caged beast. So, which of those two made her this interested?
“You’re really persistent. So, what is it this time?”
Surprisingly she immediately replied. This girl. Is she currently on the train? She’s so easy-going.
“Oh nice! You replied! I thought you’ll totally ignore me here as well”
“You know, I just don’t like to be put in the spotlight like that, so please refrain from doing that.”
“Roger! Then talk to me here. If not, I’ll always bug you until you talk to me.”
“No problem. But even here, I can’t talk to you all the time. I only occasionally open this.”
This troublesome girl. At least she will now curb her interest in me outside. Should I start working on her here?
“That’s totally enough!”
“Then, refrain from greeting me at class. I’ll greet you here now. Good morning Chii.”
“What the heck?! That’s totally funny Onoda. Aight, Good morning to you too. And you finally called me Chii.”
“You will soon bring that up anyway.”
Certainly, if I didn’t call her the way she wanted me to, she’ll bring it up again.
“You’re totally interesting Onoda! I can’t believe I’ll be laughing this much early in the morning. Lol”
“What’s funny?”
“Ah. Nevermind. You just ruined it.”
“Alright, I’ll close this now.”
Not waiting for her reply, I turned my phone off. Her thought process still eludes me, I don’t know how to deal with that. If she’s a normal gyaru, it’ll be easy, you just have to please them to think they’re great and all but Harada. She’s different, it feels like she’s just acting like a gyaru. But well, if she’s like that since middle school then it might’ve already grown into her.
After a while, Rindou arrived. She looked like someone who didn’t get enough sleep.
Am I right at my guess?
“Good morning.”
I greeted her first for a change when she settled on her seat.
“Ah. Good morning, Onoda. I overslept.”
“Yeah, I can see bags under your eye.”
“E-eh? There are bags?”
“Well, it’s not that noticeable so it’s fine.”
She took out a mirror to check it. When she saw the bags, she immediately buried her face on her desk to hide it.
“Uuh. You said it’s unnoticeable but you noticed it yourself.”
“Ah. It’s only me. Others won’t notice that.”
“B-but it’s you. I don’t care if others noticed something like that on me.”
“Err. Don’t worry, you’re still cute even with it.”
Hearing my words she buried her face even further. Her ears also started to turn red. This girl.
Ah. I’m kind of dense, she likes me so she wants to always appear fine in front of me.
Her gloom is almost gone because of my continued conversation with her. She probably needs a little haircut to shorten her fringes, that way her attractive face will be visible to everyone.
“P-please don’t tease me, Onoda.”
“Alright. I’m sorry Rindou.”
“Eh? N-no, you don’t have to.”
“I was a bit insensitive. Noticing that was uncalled for.”
She then raised her head again and shook her head.
“No. I’m even a bit happy since you were properly looking at me.”
“Ah. Of course, we’re friends, right?”
“Y-yes.”
Since she already finished the book, she brought out another with an unfamiliar and uninteresting title. Well, she’s always with her books, maybe she’s reading to ease her mind.
Haruko will surely start with her later. Maybe I’ll see a glimpse of it later when I visit their club. That book was her bait. It might help those like Rindou to open up but she will use that chance to take them for herself. That’s probably how she got 7 of them.
I don’t have a lot of plans today so maybe I could take it easy and rest. It would be good to have this kind of relaxing day once in a while.
Err. Wait. Am I jinxing it? Hopefully not.
