“U-Um, ……”
“What?”
“No, it’s, uh, …….”
The monthly meeting was over, and I had successfully handed over the souvenirs.
All I wanted to do now was to go home, but for some reason Soichiro san stopped me.
For some reason or other, I was brought to the sauna.
“Don’t you like saunas?”
“I don’t hate it or anything like that,…… I just wondered why I was invited,……”
“I thought I should have a good talk with …… Arata-kun once again.”
The sauna is filled with munching heat.
The strong-looking guy sitting next to me, stared at me with a jittery look on his face.
……Eh? he’s gonna get angry?
I don’t think I’ll get killed like this, right? It’s really scary though…
“I’m going to ask you straight……”
“Y-Yes”
“…..What do you think of Kurusu, Arata-kun?”
I’m afraid of his eyes.
It’s so scary that I feel like I’m going to shrivel.
…Maybe that’s it?
Does that mean that my love for Kurusu has been revealed and I won’t get closer to her any more?
That’s right,…….
I’m sure Soichiro would see me as nothing more than a distraction,…….
I still remember that day in elementary school.
Kurusu invited me to stay with the Amagi family, and Soichiro san tried to send me home. As a result, Kurusu and Soichiro san had a big fight. They fought when Kurusu decided to enter show business, they fought when she entered junior high school, and …… the central figure was always me. From Soichiro san’s perspective, there is no reason to think well of me.
“I-I think of …… her as my precious best friend. Also, I respect her from the bottom of my heart. I don’t know anyone else who can attract someone’s heart like that.”
I won’t say that I like her.
If Soichiro san hear me say that, he would probably get furious, and as a result, he would get into another fight with Kurusu.
I have no intention of giving up on my feelings for Kurusu, but I would like to avoid further rifts between the two of them.
”…… a dear best friend, huh?”
“Y-yes, ……!”
“Now, let’s change the question.”
He took his gaze away from me and stared straight ahead.
The stranger who was sitting just across from me, the old man let out a “Hiii” and walked out of the sauna. …… take me with you, old man.
“What do you think of Kurusu as the …… opposite gender?”
“…… a-as a member of the opposite gender?”
“Yeah. not your best friend, not your employer, but a woman, what do you think of her as a woman?”
…Why are you asking such an exquisite question?
Has my love been found out after all? What about that?
If this happens, will I tell him the truth? Honestly, I love your daughter…
No, no, no, that’s not good.
It’s fine to confess to Kurusu and get her down, but I really don’t want her to talk to Soichiro san and indirectly get him down. I may be selfish, but I at least want to hit it with my body and break it.
“I think she is very attractive. I always feel that it is okay to have someone like me around.”
I put up a few bland points so as not to offend him.
I don’t know if my shallow wits got through to him, but Soichiro san nodded a little as he looked forward.
I’m …… seriously scared.
I-I’m okay, right? I didn’t say anything weird, did I?
◆
I have had many thoughts about Arata-kun, but I still want to get to know him.
That is why I came to the sauna.
It is difficult to suddenly have a back rub, but I think we may be able to shorten the distance between us if we get naked together like this.
And we have nothing else in common except Kurusu.
I took this opportunity to ask him how he really is,
“I think she’s very attractive. I always wonder if it’s okay to have someone like me around.”
That’s a perfect answer …….
A perfect, impeccable response.
But not ……!
What I want to hear is something more like this, something with a hint of blue passion!
Well, well, I know it’s hard to say a lot of things in front of me, her father, but give me something like heat! Don’t tell me you’re not interested in Kurusu?!
“I know I’m asking a step too far, but ……”
No way, a suspicion crossed my mind.
“Arata-kun…do you ever look at a girl and think she’s cute?”
Sexual tastes vary from person to person.
Maybe he is not interested in women in the first place.
If that is the case, there is nothing we can do about it.
If that is the case, it would explain why he is not attracted to Kurusu.
“Cute ……? Of course, I think about it sometimes. It’s normal.”
“I-I see.”
Good ……!
Kurusu! Arata-kun, he thinks you’re really cute!
“My younger sister, Yoina-chan, is really cute.”
……………… hmm?
◆
“Arata-kun…do you ever look at a girl and think she’s cute?”
Perhaps the intent of this question is, “You don’t have an ulterior motive for my daughter, do you?” I guess.
Kurusu is cute.
Really cute.
The cutest in the world.
It’s a bad idea to say that here, though — …….
Even if it strokes Soichiro san’s mood, there is not a single penny of benefit for me or Kurusu.
“Cute ……? Of course, I think about it sometimes. It’s normal.”
“I-I see.”
“My younger sister, Yoina-chan, is really cute.”
I told the truth because it would be bad if I told a lame lie about how cute an idol is or how the actress is lovely
Yoina chan is very cute, though in a completely different vein than Kurusu.
Even though we haven’t officially become a family yet, Yoina-chan already calls me “onii chan” and adores me.
She draws my portrait with crayons, shares her snacks with me, wants to walk outside holding my hand, and is just so adorable.
“Yoina-chan? your sister ……?”
“The truth is, my father is getting remarried. The stepdaughter is Yoina chan”
“…..Is she that cute?”
“Yes, she is. When I first met her, she was so cute I thought she was an angel.”
“A-an angel,…….”
“She complimented me on how cool I was too,…… and I know it was flattering, but it made me happy. I was surprised when she confessed to me that she wanted me to go out with her.
“…………”
Soichiro san’s twin eyes glared at me.
….Eh? Did I say something wrong…?
“B-but, no matter how much you are in-laws, it would be bad to date your sister, right?”
“Well that’s right. But since she seemed like she was about to cry, I told her that I would think about it when we are both adults.”
“…………”
“I’m going to introduce you to my little sister next time. I’d be happy if you and Yoina chan could become friends.”
Even though I’m sure I didn’t say anything bad,…….
Soichiro san’s eyes were bloodshot.
◆
Arata-kun said she was cute
He said it in spite of my daughter.
And his stepsister, Yoina chan is apparently aiming to be his girlfriend, as far as I’ve heard. It’s only natural that a man as attractive as Arata would be popular. There is nothing surprising about that.
And Arata kun himself doesn’t seem to be too full of it either,……. Don’t tell me that they are already in love with each other?
If that’s the case, it’s no wonder he doesn’t care for Kurusu.
Since he loves Yoina chan, there’s no way he’s going to like Kurusu.
“I’m going to introduce you to my little sister next time. I’d be happy if you and Yoina chan could become friends.”
……Not good.
Not good, not good, not good!
This is definitely not good!
If he is going to be taken away from her by a girl who is just a mere passing, Kurusu will surely not be able to recover from it.
A decade-long one-sided love will probably destroy her.
If she is introduced as a close friend, the worst that can happen is that she commits suicide. ……!
Uwaaaaaaaaa!!!???
That’s no good! Absolutely no!
“So, Soichiro-san! Where are you–?”
With Arata-kun’s voice behind me, I ran out of the sauna with great vigor.
……I have to do something.
As a father, I must protect my daughter no matter what ……!
