“What are you getting mad about?”

Yō asked, his cheeks puffed up with impatience as he looked at Marin.

Marin looked up at Yō once, then quickly returned her gaze to Yō and Kasumi’s joined hands and opened her mouth.

“No, it’s nothing.”

“I don’t think your face says ‘nothing’ though…”

The expression on Marin’s face is that of a child who is sulking.

As expected, Yō is not oblivious to the fact that this is the case, and he lets go of the hand with which Marin was looking at him.

This time though, Yō felt a black aura coming from behind him, and he thought, “It’s true that if you stand up for yourself, you can’t stand up for others.”

“I knew it was a bad choice.”

“Shut up, I was prepared for this to happen in the first place.”

Yō denied it with some annoyance when Nagisa, who thought that Marin and Kasumi would never be able to get along, muttered in exasperation.

Yō is a man who has gone through more hardships thanks to Kasumi than any other man― or even twice or three times as many.

If he had decided to do it, he would not have raised his voice over something like this.

“But if they continue like this, it will only make their relationship even worse, right?”

“There is a simple solution to this problem…”

“Is that so? Then why don’t you just do it?”

Nagisa asked Yō, implying why he didn’t do it.

Yō opened his mouth to Nagisa, letting out a sigh.

“It’s only theoretically easy, but it’s difficult unless you’re lucky enough to fall into such a situation. Well, if you do fall into it, it’s usually bad luck.”

“What’s with the weird phrasing? It’s kind of creepy, don’t you think?”

“You show your true colors sometimes…”

Yō pointed out in disgust to Nagisa, who was relentlessly calling him creepy.

But Yō knew that Nagisa wouldn’t think anything of it, so he opened his mouth again, looking at Kasumi and Marin, who began to stare at each other in silence.

“It’s one of those situations where if you fall into it, those guys will inevitably get along.”

Knowing Kasumi’s personality well and having a rough idea of what Marin was like, Yō had a plan.

However―

“Well, it’s not like I’m going to fall into that trap.”

Yō told her that it wasn’t often that a situation arose that allowed him to realize his idea.

He thinks that the current situation is too fragmented and difficult to realize.

“Then it’s no good.”

If it doesn’t happen often, there’s no point in talking about it here.

This is what Nagisa meant.

“If you want to create such a situation artificially, you can.”

“Then do it.”

However, when Yō replied that he could artificially create such a situation, Nagisa told him to do it if he could.

She doesn’t understand why he doesn’t do it when he can.

This time, Nagisa gazed into Yō’s eyes with that meaning in mind.

But―

“I don’t like it when you make me do things.”

Yō said, and turned his back on Nagisa.

Then he stopped the two of them from checking each other out with just their eyes.

While staring at Yō’s back, Nagisa put her hand over her mouth and smirked.

(Fuun~, I guess I got the idea. But if it’s a situation like that, I don’t think it’s as difficult as Yō-kun makes it out to be. After all, we have Kasumi-chan, who immediately bites any woman who tries to get close to Yō-kun.)

Author’s Afterword:

They’re all very short chapters.

I’d like to put out a solid summary of the previous chapters someday (*^_^*).
