Chapter 40 – I Was Confessed to by My Junior
It was a hazy memory in a dream.
When you wake up, be sure to kind of forget it.
I hugged my back as hard as a log, buried my head in my broad chest, and murmured on my own.
“Cold. Don’t go.”
“I’m not going.”
“Lie. Even before, I was going to go.”
“Where are you?”
“Because I will be your girlfriend, even your girlfriend.”
“Calm down. Senior.”
“Don’t throw it away, rather, let me be your girlfriend…”
“… Wake up, wake up and talk.”
“Huh? No? Do you hate a girlfriend like me?”
“No, it’s a problem because it’s too good.”
“Because I will work hard… Yes?”
“When you wake up, I will confess again from my side.”
…
…
…
When I woke up,
It was on the bed.
I fell asleep on the bed at the last moment,
Waking up in bed was, in fact, natural.
But to pass it off as just saying,
I had two problems.
The first was that the bed I was lying on was not the bed in my room…
The second was that the juniors were hugging me tightly, and I was in a situation where I was hugging the juniors tightly.
This, this is already the third.
I couldn’t help but be very embarrassed this time at the lewd thing I had committed three times.
Let me wriggle and pretend to be popular,
Unlike me, my junior did not fall asleep,
He still talked to me while holding me tight.
“Senior, are you awake?”
“… Uh, how did it happen?”
“Yes?”
“Why, hugging, sleeping, no, erotic, uhm…”
“Don’t you remember?”
“… Me, any mistake…”
“It is not even a mistake. Hmm.”
Does that mean that it’s not even a mistake, but it’s close to that?
But I really don’t remember. Why are you doing this
When I was anxious, my junior patted my back, comforted me like a baby, and explained the situation.
“When I got back home, I saw the shoes in the front door, but I couldn’t see Senior Eve.”
“… Yes, yes.”
“When I entered the room. Ah. Of course I knocked. I’m having a hard time sleeping…”
“…”
“I thought I was very tired and just wanted to be afraid, but suddenly he said it was cold, he asked me to hug him, no, it’s not like that. Um, what should I say… ?”
“… That, you don’t have to explain further.”
With those few words, I was able to grasp the situation, albeit roughly.
Not boring Even if he stayed still, he could not stand the chill of his body, which was getting wet from the cold and loneliness, and wailed in his sleep.
It’s hit and miss, and it’s disgusting.
When I blurted out my thoughts for a moment, my junior said something in a tone that was very sorry and noticed.
“Well, I had no other intentions. I hope it’s too cold He also asked for a hug. The bed in the senior’s room is too narrow for two people…”
“Ah, I get it…”
I don’t know why you’re so apologetic, or why you’re saying it in an excused tone.
I don’t even think he forced me to hug him.
I knew better than anyone else that juniors were not like that.
It’s because it’s so sincere that it’s useless.
Then why is he like this, let’s just tilt his head,
I wondered if the junior looked down at me as he was hugging me, and then he looked like he was thinking hard about something, and he stopped patting his back and said.
“Senior, are you still cold?”
“Yes? No, work, it’s happening, I’m fine.”
Just as she said, the cold she felt right before falling asleep had disappeared.
There was a slight chill left, but it was something that had always hovered around me throughout my life, something I was used to and could easily endure.
“Then would you like to wake up?”
“…”
“Senior?”
“…”
“… I’ll hug you next time Wake up first.”
“Oh, I see…”
Really,
My junior knew very well what I wanted and was able to get rid of it.
It wasn’t until I got a firm promise, I got up from the bed and stood on the floor.
My junior also got up with me and came to see me, huh. His expression was a little strange.
I don’t know if it’s a determined face or a determined face, but I don’t know if it’s good or bad, but it had the expression of a person on the verge of committing something big.
I swallowed saliva in my dry mouth…
My junior finally told me.
“Wait, there’s a place I want to go with.”
“… Now?”
I fell asleep as soon as I got home from the lecture, so it was now midnight.
I pointed out that the sky outside the window was extremely dark and said so, but the junior shook her head from side to side.
“It has to be now or never.”
“What, what? Rather, if it’s dark like this, people won’t be able to see it, so that’s good.”
Because of last night’s incident, I dozed off during lectures, and as soon as I got home, I slept soundly, and I was in good shape.
Both my juniors and I were still in our school uniforms, so at the same time we changed into suitable street clothes and got ready to go out.
As soon as I came back to the living room, my junior handed me something.
It was a hair tie I had written before.
… Two outlines.
“Can you do that hair? It suits you well.”
“… .”
With that incredibly obscene statement,
My face was burning with anger.
There couldn’t have been a more blatant service appeal than this.
His words,
It was meant to be ready so that you can use it whenever you want.
“Yes, if you say you’re pretty, well, there’s nothing I can’t do…”
“You are pretty.”
That, there is no need to say it all at once without worrying about it.
I thought about it, but it was true that I had no other options.
Actually, in my head, the woman I saw on the way home just now keeps lingering.
In order to steal a junior from such a proud person,
… No, that’s arrogant too.
Then, at the very least, if her juniors, who are sitting next to her like that, compare me and her even inadvertently, and think that I’m annoying, ugly, or unnecessary, huh…
In order not to be abandoned, I really had to give up a lot.
… I said give up, but that was just an exaggeration, more precisely, that I needed to change.
I finally, in the end, made the decision in my heart to accept the girlfriend offer, which was obviously terrifying at first.
I think I had similar thoughts in my sleep.
Well, well, I’m talking about this, but at the point where I met the three professors at once and a junior saved me, I was already full of thoughts of volunteering, so nothing much has changed.
Just a little more certain.
After thinking about it, I took the hair tie my junior gave me, went to the large mirror in the living room, and started tying my hair.
While I raised both arms up and started braiding from the right side with a hair tie in my mouth, somehow, my junior’s eyes didn’t leave my face.
Actually, not only the face, but also the body, embarrassingly, ah,
In particular, it was extremely embarrassing to look so persistently at the lips with the one remaining hair tie, the raised arm, the arm, and the armpit.
I’ve said it many times, but I’m extremely sensitive to stares, so I felt that my juniors were watching me, so I reddened my face once again, so I couldn’t get my reddened face back to normal until I finally stood in front of my juniors with my hair braided into two pigtails. It’s done.
And the junior said it calmly as if he was keeping his promise.
“You are pretty.”
I don’t know why, but I gasped at those calm words.
I thought I might have gotten a sprained eye with something like this, but… I didn’t get anything out of my throat.
Anyway, finally, such an happening,
We went outside.
…
…
…
The place I headed to was a bit out of the ordinary.
There is a smell of bushes around you, and the higher you go, the higher you go.
Is it so. It was a mountain road.
I thought that a mountain road in the middle of the night would not be very dangerous, but
Surprisingly, it’s clean and tidy, and it’s a place as small as the mountain behind the neighborhood, and there aren’t many trees around, so I didn’t think climbing on a dark day would be that dangerous.
But apart from dangerous and non-dangerous,
Why are you bringing me to this place all of a sudden?
The back mountain is really low, so it wasn’t long before we reached a large clearing near the top.
Standing at the end of a small ridge, the junior pointed to the sky and said.
“This is the best place to see the stars around here.”
Followed his fingers to the ceiling,
Stars studded like jewels were embroidered in the clear, pollution-free sky.
When was the last time I looked up at the sky and looked at the stars like this?
I couldn’t help but admire it purely.
“Pretty…”
“Yes?”
“Yes!”
When I liked it like a child, my juniors seemed proud.
But that was only for a moment, and he suddenly came up with a great mood.
“Yes. Senior.”
“Yes.”
“You are not alone.”
“Yes?”
So suddenly?
Hearing the sudden remark, I looked at him with a somewhat bewildered face.
“I don’t know why you are so lonely. I don’t know why he devalues himself so much.”
“T-T, are you clear?”
“It’s even weirder when you’re only looking at seniors all day and you don’t notice. Especially since seniors are pure.”
“Su-purity.”
I thought it was a word that didn’t suit me.
But my juniors didn’t seem to care about my shy expression.
“I felt that while watching seniors, there are times when seniors behave like someone who has lost something. Something very precious.”
“Yes…”
I wasn’t wrong.
No, it was a remark that accurately penetrated the essence of the person I am.
“I heard this from my parents when I was young, and they say that even if people lose something precious, that is not the end.”
“So what?”
“You say that you become a star in the sky and watch over the person who cherished you.”
“… Did you believe that?”
“No, adults are good at lying.”
The junior continued to speak with a smile that suited him well.
“Of course I didn’t believe it. But if I can comfort her tired senior, that’s fine.”
“… Tooth. Nothing like consolation.”
“Is it so?”
“Liar!”
“Why am I a liar?”
“Because he said the same thing to me even though he knew it was an adult lie, Master is also a liar.”
“Oh.”
The junior made an apologetic face as if she had been stabbed by something sharp, but she straightened her expression again and looked at me.
“Sorry. But Eve, it wasn’t a lie to say that you weren’t alone.”
“Why?”
“Because I am.”
“…”
…
…
All of these juniors were perfect, and even the volubility was good.
If you hear these words, in this situation, at this time, from this kind of person,
A hundred out of a hundred women would all be slapped.
This bald guy was good at bewitching people.
While I’m out of my mind
The junior continued to speak.
“So, from now on, I will always be by your side and make you happy.”
“…”
“Will you be my lover?”
I didn’t know because I was talking calmly, but I noticed that the face of the junior who looked up was extremely flustered.
I think she’s self-aware that she’s saying something very embarrassing.
In that proud and vague confession,
I couldn’t help but look up at him and smile shyly.
Ah.
Good night.
In a romantic place with a starry sky, to an attractive person where everything is perfect, you are not alone, that you do not have to be cold and lonely, and that you will always be by my side and make me happy. It was something I had never even dreamed of coming to life.
My heart is soaking wet, and I feel like something is overflowing.
The cold that gripped my body had long since escaped even the slightest bit of chill, and I felt that my heart was getting warmer.
I spontaneously smiled at the corner of my mouth with a smile that never left, half-folding my eyes wet with happiness.
My juniors patiently waited for my actions…
Gradually, I felt the moment for my answer approaching.
So I said
“No, I do not want!”
Called.
In response to my angry answer, my juniors said, “What,” And looked at me blankly with a face of complete bewilderment.
“Why, why, why, why?!”
“I hate it anyway!”
“Wait, that’s weird… ?! It wasn’t that kind of atmosphere.”
“Puheheh, no, no, no, I hate it so much!”
“Chehehehehe.”
“I hate it, I hate it, Master’s stuff is so sour. Whoops…”
“No, no, I thought it was all over once I confessed that I would definitely be your girlfriend.”
“Ehehe.”
“Could it be because you were asleep?!”
“Huh? No. Her girlfriend can do it.”
“Yes?”
With the appearance that the junior does not know what it is,
All I could do was stare blankly at my laughing face.
