His Childhood Friend is a Beautiful, Reclusive Girl, So He Spends His After-School Hours in Her Room (But He’s Not Her Boyfriend!) - Ch. 50: Where Two People Diverge

The situation was an extreme mess.
Yuika has been turned into a kitten due to various reasons, and Iori has awakened to chuunibyou in the next room over.

Iori was the one who had a huge impact on my life later on…sorry, I can’t leave your sister alone. My number one is always Yuika. So…

“‘Ah-eh, I can’t get the summoning to work…Do I still need a special spell? Alright, let’s write a spell in my notes, referring to the 70’s and beyond of the demon path!’”
“…”

I used to do that too!
Sorry, I’m sorry, Iori…!
I’ll take responsibility for that and burn it for you later…!

While holding back my tears, I turned my attention to Yuika with a determined look on my face.
Her body was still not strong enough to hold herself up, and she looked uncomfortable without my support.
By the way, she’s been bouncing on my shoulder since a while ago.

“Yuika, Yuika, get a grip. Come to your senses.”
“Hmm? I feel so fluffy. I’ve never felt like this before…”
“I-I guess so…can you walk by yourself?”
“No. I’m too weak to stand up on my own…”
“Good grief…”

Was it enough to make you sit up and take notice…No, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m pretty sure I don’t know.

“Then I’ll pick you up, okay? Hold on. Hugh.”
“Whoa.”

I wrapped my hands around the back of Yuika’s knees and picked her up.

“Wow, a princess carry.”
“Don’t move too much, princess. I’ll take you to bed.”
“Don’t worry!”

The princess was in a good mood.
Let’s give her a break for now. I arrived at the bed in a few steps and laid Yuika down.
…Well, that’s a relief.

I thought, but the eyes under her black hair were staring at me very defenselessly.

“Soutaa…”
“What is it?”
“I want to eat more Souta…”

In an instant, my heart nearly jumped out of my chest.
…….W-What does she mean?
Oh, is that it? Does it mean that she has grown fond of sweet bite?

In fact, you can’t get much more dangerous than that.
Now that I’ve arrived at the truth, just remembering yesterday’s ear cleaning was enough to make me lose my mind.
To be honest, even the princess-carrying I just did could have sent me to push down Yuika if I hadn’t used my rational mind to the fullest.

I don’t care if it’s a sweet bite or not, if an additional load is applied from this point on, Reason-san will go on strike. I have to do my best to cover it up.

“Why don’t you take a little nap, Yuika? I’ll tell you a story. Once upon a time, in England, there was a gentleman with a fine body and a stone mask.”
“Ya. I want to eat it.”
“No, no, listen to me. This is a very interesting story, okay?”
“…Souta, don’t you want to eat me?”
“Ku…?”

My heartbeat accelerated even faster when she said that with her moist eyes.
At the same time, I overworked my rationality even more. I’ve got a direct hit, this is not good…

Yuika’s skin was still hot, I could tell at a glance.
In addition to that, she was not wearing a bra. As soon as she turned over to me, the twin hills waved beneath her pajamas, like saying “hey, Souta!”

I can’t stop looking at it.
I feel like I’m going to die of exhaustion because Reason-san is working so hard.

Yet, Yuika’s offensive continued.
She smiled shyly and asked.

“…My b**bs are soft, aren’t they?”
“T-that’s…”

A thin arm reached out and touched my cheek with the palm of her hand. Hot. It was burning.

“Be honest with me. It was soft, right?”

In front of me, her bre*sts were buttoned up yet her cleavage was peeking out.
Not a cleavage from above, but a cleavage right in the middle.

Of course, Yuika was aware of the situation at her chest. Because I can’t take my eyes off her anymore.

The heat in my palm had spread, and I couldn’t fake it anymore.
My throat was dry and I answered in a hoarse voice.

“…They are soft, I can’t forget for the rest of my life.”
“Fufu.”

Yuika smiled happily. Then, in a small voice, she murmured, “I did it…for the rest of my life.” Oh my goodness, you’re so cute, ahhhhh!

“If that’s the case…”

A faint tension began to mix in her voice.
The palm of her hand touching my cheek was also trembling a little.

“I’ll make it even harder for you to forget…no, I’d rather Souta do something unforgettable to me. Now…I want Souta to touch my…b**bs.”

She bent forward on the bed and pulled her bre*sts together in an appealing manner.
The density of her cleavage, visible through the gap in her pajamas, was unbelievable. The soft swellings of her bre*sts were so tightly packed together that they were almost spilling out of her pajamas.

“Wha….”

My voice rose.
In my brain, Reason-san was screaming in despair. Still, with the last of my strength, I managed to spit out some ethical words.

“I-I can’t do that…I’ve done too much yesterday and today. That’s why I’m here…I really want to take care of you!”
“I know, I know.”

Yuika’s smile deepened.
At the same time, the heat in her palm increased.

“I’ve known you for years and years. Souta has always taken good care of me. Your the most protective person in the world. That’s why…I want to return the favor soon too.”

Suddenly,she got up from the bed.
She came at me with much force to push me down.

“That’s enough, Souta can do whatever he wants with me. You always took good care of me, and I don’t blame you for doing so! You wanted to do ecchi things with me, but you always put it up for me, but I’ve been worried about you too, you know!?”

“Wha…!? D-Did you really care about that?”
“I did. Souta glanced at my b**bs 8 to 10 times a day.”
“That many? Ugh, no way! I’m shocked at myself.”
“I’m not lying! I’ve made it a habit to count my glances, so my numbers are accurate!”

“Time! Let me get down on my knees for once! I want to apologize as much as I can!”
“You don’t have to do that! That’s not what I…”

The other hand also reached out and together pinched my cheek from both sides.

“…You, are going to mess me up”
“—”

Right in front of me is the girl I’m in love with.
The girl I’ve been in love with for years and years.
In her eyes, there was now a strong determination.

“If I have Souta, I don’t need anything else. I’m serious about this.”

She leaned her weight on me and said.
She was so embarrassed that she looked like she was about to burst into tears, her face bright red.

“Hey, Souta…”

It was a decisive phrase to be spoken.
I knew instinctively. Touching her bre*sts, messing her up, and so on were not really important.
What Yuika really wanted to say was this one phrase.

Cherry blossom colored lips whispered.
With a strong fervor like a prayer.

“Right now, we—can be lovers right?”
