Touma-kun Persevere

Translated by AmaLynne

August 5th has arrived after the summer vacation.

It’s been three days since that first date.

I had a lot of fun…and she’s so cute.

By the way, we haven’t seen each other since then.

We shouldn’t be spending so much time with each other.

Of course, I’d love to see her…

And…unlike me, Aya is a popular person.

I’m sure she has friends and other relationships.

I don’t want to interfere with that, that would be too self-centered.

I told Aki that I went out with her, by the way.

He laughed at me a lot…

I told you so! and Hahaha! You’ve fallen in love! and so on.

◆◇◆◇◆

「Alright, so much for cleaning up my room.」

Today, Aya is finally coming to my room.

…I’m a healthy boy too, so I have to hide many things.

「Brother―!? Isn’t she coming soon―!?」

「Ah! I know! I just finished!」

I go back downstairs and enter the living room.

「T-Touma! What should I do!?」

「What, father temperamental…just be normal!」

「What do you say!? She’s my son’s first girlfriend! And she’s the one who healed your wounds! As a father, I want to do the right thing!」

「Father…thank you, but just be normal. If father is so poised, Aya will be more nervous than he is.」

「Mm…that too, I see. Well, I’m going to go calm down a bit.」

Dad went to the Japanese-style room and seemed to be saying something to Mom.

「Brother has a girlfriend―…」

「What? Are you lonely?」

「No, I’m not! I’m just worried that he’ll get disillusioned and dump me.」

「My dear sister. It’s okay, she’s a she. Little sister is little sister, separate pockets.」

「I don’t know what you mean…」

「It’s okay, I don’t get it either.」

「…Are you nervous about your brother…?」

「…You found out. As a matter of fact, I am. My hands can’t stop sweating…」

My heart is beating fast…and it hasn’t even come in yet. This.

At that moment, I hear the intercom.

「Ah! Brother!!」

「Yeah, I’m going.」

I go to the front door and open it.

There stood an incredibly cute girl.

「Hey, Aya…hey, too cute, huh?」

「Good….eh?! W-What do you mean!?」

Her long hair, which she usually wears down, is now in a ponytail.

Of course, she has a sense of touch on both sides.

Today, she is wearing a white one-piece dress.

She is wearing a light blue cardigan over it.

It’s kind of…dazzling…neat and clean.

「Yeah, it suits you well. Besides, your ponytail is so cute.」

「Ah…t-thank you…that…so happy…」

The embarrassed face is a delight to the eyes.

I could eat three bowls of rice.

「Brother is smitten!」

「Yeah, yeah, I used to be like that with your mother, too…」

「H-Hello! Nice to meet you!」

「Well, come in.」

「Yes! Hi, I’m sorry to bother you.」

◆◇◆◇◆

Then I greeted my mom and sat down at the living room table.

「Hi, Touma-kun father, it’s nice to meet you. My name is Aya Shimizu. And I am Touma-kun girlfriend…」

「Yes, yes, it’s nice to meet you. I am Touma’s father and my name is Tatsuma. He’s a troublesome son with many extremes, but please take good care of him.」

「Yes! My pleasure!」

「Okay, that’s enough. Let’s go to my room.」

「Eh―!? Brother! I haven’t talked to her yet―?」

「I’m going to come back, you can do it later. I can’t stay.」

「Hee? Is my brother embarrassed―?」

「Oh, I’ve never seen my son’s embarrassed face before.」

「Touma-kun, you’re so cute.」

「Oh…give me a break. Come on, let’s go.」

「Yes! E-Excuse me…」

「Touma, don’t attack no matter how cute she is, okay?」

「……I’ll do my best.」

「Eh? Ehh―!?」

「Brother! Fight!」

◆◇◆◇◆

And we go into my room.

「S-Sorry to bother you…」

「O-Oh. Well, sit down.」

「Uh, yes…… just now……」

「Hmm? Oh, don’t worry about it. Aya is so cute, they were just worried I’d attack her.」

「Fuee!? Oh, oh, oh…」

「Well, calm down. I’m not going to do that. Father and sister are here.」

「T-That’s right! I’m sorry…」

「……glad my father and sister were there today……」

「Eh?」

「No, it’s nothing. Now, what do we do?」

「Ah, can I see your room?」

It should be…okay…those things are hidden.

「Yeah, it’s fine. Nothing much.」

「Yay! Thank you! Ahehe, my favorite boy’s room!」

Oh, man, she’s cute.

Persevere, me.

「Hee―, it’s kind of strange…it’s different from Seiya’s…and it smells like…Ah! I know this book! Oh! This one too!」

Smell? You smell it? What do you mean?

「Hey, hey! Can I have a look?」

「Yeah, sure.」

「Is it because of the tension? It’s a little hot… Do you have a hanger?」

She said so and took off her cardigan…

Play

Unmute

「…Sorry, Aya. I’m going to turn down the air conditioner temperature, can you put it back?」

「Eh? W-Why? Would it be unseemly to wear only a dress…?」

「No, it’s not. You’re too tempting for me to be rational.」

I want to push her down on the bed right now…!

Just her shoulders sticking out…!

Why do I have such an urge…!

Me! Fight!

「Rational…? Ah……uh……that, I’ll wear it…」

「Please…I’m too nervous, it’s too early for me. Sorry.」

「B-But you know!? I-I was so happy! Um, you said you want to do that kind of thing……」

What are you talking about? This cute one?

「Of course. I’m a healthy high school boy. The girl I like…that, what the heck. My heart is pounding.」

「B-But Touma-kun, you don’t look at me very often……and I’m sensitive to that kind of thing……so I was wondering what I could do to make you nervous…」

…No, no, no, no! Endure! Me!

「That’s… I would be lying if I said I wasn’t interested, but that would be rude. That’s against my beliefs. Umm, Aya…may be beautiful, but I also like Aya’s contents properly…and of course, her body is also attractive…but because I like her…ah, sorry, I can’t summarize it well…」

「Uh-huh! I got the message! I’m very, very happy…ehehe…I’m so lucky to have Touma-kun as my boyfriend…」

No, I think I’m happier than you, no matter what you think.

「I-I see. …I’m also happy that Aya is my girlfriend.」

「Ehehe, that’s great. I didn’t know this was possible.」

◆◇◆◇◆

After that, we talked for a while, but my mental capacity reached its limit.

So I went back to the living room and chatted with father and sister.

「You know, brother is―」

「Really? I see!」

Now she’s talking to my sister.

Sounds like something from when I was little.

「Hey, Touma. Aya-chan is a good girl.」

「Yeah, I think so. She’s too good for me.」

「Haha! I never thought I’d hear that from my son. Touma, you know what I mean?」

「Yes, of course I do. I’ll take good care of her. I will behave as moderately as possible.」

「Then, good. You’re still in high school. But…well, whatever…」

Later, as evening arrived, I drove Aya to the station on my motorcycle.

By the way, the reason I didn’t pick her up when she came was because she wanted to.

I don’t know, but she wanted to go to my house by herself and say hello.

「Thank you, Touma-kun! Taking me here…」

「No, it’s okay. I’m worried about you.」

「What? It’s still early evening.」

「I’m just worried about having a cute girlfriend.」

「C-Cute……can’t get used to it……so happy.」

「Yes…so am I. Well, see you later!」

「Uh-huh! See you later! I had fun today!」

Again, the bike is running.

I don’t think I’ll ever get used to the cuteness.

In fact, it’s getting worse.

At any rate, all I can say is, I did my best today!

I endured it well! I’m so proud of myself!

…Let’s keep her out of my room for the time being…

I don’t think my reason will hold out…
