[This is like Misaki sensei trying to clarify a situation……. She seems to be a very determined teacher. Yeah, but it’s easier for me too. I won’t lose! !]
[Misaki sensei started it……. I don’t think we’re going to get along somehow in a friendly atmosphere. But I’ll take you on !]
There was nothing particularly unusual about Misaka san’s and Saki’s expressions, who were both determined. They’ve got good poker faces…….
“……Yes. I understand. I’m going to go for a walk around there for a bit.”
“I’m sorry. I just need five minutes to talk about something, woman to woman.”
[Fujisaki kun, you should have at least guessed that these three people are showing some affection towards you. So why is that? But it’s a good thing he doesn’t pry.]
I got up from my seat and walked out of the restaurant. I don’t know what kind of discussion will take place, but I’m sure I’ll have a pretty good idea later on when I hear what’s on their mind. I feel kind of sorry.
As requested, I went around the area. When I returned about 10 minutes later, the discussion was over.
The food I had ordered had arrived, and when I sat down, the meal was ready to begin.
“I’m sorry, Fujisaki kun. I kicked you out.”
“No, it’s fine. I’m sure there are many things that happen between women…….”
While we were eating, the three of them were strangely quiet. However, each of them has different thoughts in their mind.
[I understand, but Misaki sensei and Saki chan both like Fujisaki kun…… A teacher, a sister, and a boyfriend…… It’s a messed up combination. Is Fujisaki kun the kind of person who likes that kind of person?
At any rate, I guess I’m the most likely to be chosen out of all of them……. You have to be a really bold person to choose a teacher or a sister. After I break up with Takuma, I’ll just become another girl. Yeah. But if I feel safe just in that position, I’ll definitely be swept under my feet.]
[I wonder if I really should have told Onii chan that I love him as a man… Misaki sensei seems to be tolerant of things like that, but Misaka senpai must be quite reluctant… However, it’s also quite disturbing to fall in love with someone else even though you have a boyfriend. It’s cheating. Well, it seems like they’re about to break up, so maybe it’s not cheating? It’s understandable that once you get deeply involved with someone, you won’t be able to break up with them right away……]
So, as I assumed, there was a sharing of positions.
[Now, the die is cast, do I feel like that? The three of us have already declared that we like Fujisaki kun, and there’s no turning back now. Besides, we all decided to confess our feelings at the same time this evening, and depending on how it goes, this kind of gathering may be the last time we have it.
Saki chan looks like she’s going to run out of control if she isn’t chosen, and Misaka san doesn’t seem to want to give up either. I think that…..even if Fujisaki kun goes out with someone else, I’m going to forcefully take him away from her.
Everyone is so stubborn, huh. I understand.
So, do we have to go with the harem end of this? Or will we have to put it on hold for a while? I think Fujisaki-kun would say that. Like he needs a little more time. I’m not happy with that ending, but I don’t think it will move in a better direction if I force him to choose……]
I heard I’m supposed to get confessions from three of them today.
I’m glad they like me……but it’s honestly hard to have to make a decision so quickly.
All three of them are very attractive. I can’t believe I had to choose one of them…….
The meal was not great, but that’s only on the surface. In the brief exchange of words, the three of them had a lot on their minds.
Having done nothing but listen to them, I was at loss. It’s a little late for that. I was just confronted once again with what I knew.
After finishing our meal, our next stop was a large shopping mall by the beach, about a 20-minute walk and train ride from there.
So, within the 45 minutes each person had, I decided to go and see the places of my choice with the three of them individually. They said that each of them would have time to appeal to me.
There was no detailed explanation as to why they were doing this. Misaki sensei would know what was going on in this situation, right? That’s what she was thinking in her mind.
Anyway, the four of us spent time together, and I was glad that I was able to avoid any crises when one of them fell to the dark side for some reason or another.
And the first pair was me and Misaki sensei. I had already had a meeting with Misaki sensei and the others beforehand, so the conversation went smoothly.
I was alone with Misaki sensei, and we walked side by side in the shopping mall.
“We were finally alone. I’ve been so impatient since Fujisaki kun brought two extra people with him !”
I think that statement is already equivalent to a confession, but I’ll let it slide for now.
“I’m sorry. It got a little complicated…….”
“But that’s all right. I’t’s already done, right? Fujisaki-kun, is there anywhere you want to go?”
“I…..honestly don’t know. Even when I come to a place like this, I only go to bookstores and 100-yen stores…….”
“I guess that’s how it is with high school students. Then let’s go somewhere a little more exciting, shall we?”
“……Eh?”
[I said something suggestive, but my destination was just a doll store. Fujisaki kun is so confused, so cute…]
Doll store……? I mean, it’s hard to know everything in advance when you’re taking me on a surprise tour……. The excitement is gone, and I have to pretend that I’m surprised by the surprise.
Misaki sensei led me to the toy section. Even though it’s called a toy, where there were plastic models and dioramas, it’s definitely not something for childrens. Further in the back of the section. There was a section separated by showcases, where dolls were displayed.
I am not familiar with dolls. I have a few figurines, but they are a different kind of doll.
The dolls were beautiful girls with movable joints, about 60 centimeters in height. The faces are particularly beautiful, and their juvenility mixed with elegance and femininity evoke a somewhat immoral desire in me.
Moreover, some of the dolls on display were not wearing clothes, and the strangely realistic bulge in the chest area drew my gaze.
“Is this your first time in a store like this?”
“I-it’s my first time…….”
I thought it wouldn’t be any surprise, but when I arrived, it turned out to be a surprise. I felt like I was lost in a different space.
“I don’t have one like this, though. My friends like them, and sometimes they come to see them. They are cute, and if they were a tenth of the price, I would have bought one.”
“Eh, how much does it cost?”
“I think it’s between 50,000 and 100,000 yen? There are some that cost more.”
“T-that much? For one doll?”
“I think so. It is too expensive to buy casually. I think the goal is to give the owner a sense of superiority by making it difficult to buy. Of course, there is the technical fee for production.
It’s not easy to buy, but it’s so cute that just looking at it fills you up, isn’t it? Isn’t it enough to awaken you to a new hobby?”
“…..I-I understand, but.”
They are really cute, adorable, and have a charm that seems to suck you in.
“…..If you want, I can buy you one, okay?”
“No, no ! I can’t let you get me something this expensive !”
“Well, that’s true. But if you’re interested in this kind of thing, I think you and I would have the same interests.”
“It’s not that….I don;t have any interest.”
“I see. That’s good. When something is cute, it just feels like justice. I’m so attracted to it.”
“…But aren’t dolls honestly scary? If they’re made with such a realistic atmosphere, they’ll start to move every night…”
“Pfft.”
Sensei was cupping her mouth with both hands and was trembling.
“Wait, isn’t that terrible? Anyone would be scared if they had a doll like this, right? Those eyes have too much presence. They have more eyesight than humans.”
“Yeah yeah. I know. I just think it’s cute that you worry like that.”
[I know how you feel, but boys who are afraid of such things are very moe….. It’s nice to have the humanity to be able to honestly say that scary things are scary.]
“…For a boy, being cute is not a compliment.”
“Fufu.”
“Again….”
[H-his sulky expression is……. Ah, geez, I love it. Everything looks cute. Does he look cute because I like him, or do I like him because he looks cute……]
“Honestly, laugh all you want.”
“Sorry, sorry. Don’t be mad at me. I guess it’s still too early for you, Fujisaki kun.”
“Too early you said……. I guess this is different from what you would call playing with dolls…… I doubt if it is possible for an adult to love dolls.”
“I don’t think so, either. Dolls are a very selective hobby, so it’s not the same as maturity.”
Misaki sensei is still giggling and smiling.
Seeing her smile like this makes me feel like I can forgive anything. A woman’s smile is a bit unfair, I think.
“Would you like to stop looking at dolls and look at those figures and plastic models?”
“Nana san, do you understand such things?”
“Yeah. I like most of the three dimensional models too. I have a lot of figures at home.
“So you are a geek…….”
“Yes, I am. Ah, but I can’t keep up with authentic geek conversations, so please don’t get me wrong. Because I’m an unconventional geek who loves only the parts of what she likes.”
“You’re so unusual in many ways…..”
Then I went around with Misaki sensei looking at figures and plastic models.
I think her knowledge was really biased, as she had declared that she only admires the parts of things she likes. Even if you know some of the characters, you only know the story roughly.
When I explained it to her again, she seemed happy to hear it. Isn’t it really boring? I was worried about that, but I could see that she was really enjoying it, so I got excited too.
I think knowing someone’s inner voice is a tricky thing to do in human relationships. However, I thought it was a very useful power because I could do what the other person really wanted without getting worried.
