Chapter 20 A Night of Betrayal and Sorrow Comes to an End (Part 1)

February 16, 2022

In the morning sun: ……

A room in a lovely hotel.

I was enjoying the soft but comfortable weight in my arms.

In my arms is my girlfriend ……, Sakurajima Touko-senpai.

I’ve been calling her “Touko” since last night.

She had a peaceful expression on her face, and was breathing a lovely sleep.

When I found out about last night’s incident, when Karen, my ex-girlfriend, and Kamokura Tetsuya, Touko’s ex-boyfriend, cheated on each other right in front of me.

I was the one who supported Touko’s crumbling heart.

And then we went to …… each other to fill the wounds in our hearts.

She is probably enjoying a good night’s sleep from the aftermath of last night.

“Touko.”

I called her name softly, and gently reached out to touch her smooth white skin.

I hold her gently in my arms.

Touko opened her eyes lightly. "Yuu?" "Good morning."

Then she had jumped into my chest rather than greeting me in the morning."Let's be together forever now. Yuu." "Yeah, I won't let Touko go either, We'll always be together forever.

I put my hand on her rich and taut breast. "Oh."

That was enough to make her breathe sweetly.

The two of us lay on top of each other again, as if we were checking each other out.

That’s right.

I’m sure you’ll agree with me. "Can you please stop narrating at ......?"

I said with a blatantly unhappy expression on my face.

I don’t know how far he’ll go if he’s left alone to talk about his own delusions.

That’s right. If you’ve gone that far.

I’m sure you’ll be happy to know that I’m not the only one.

It was Yota Ishida who sipped his coffee from the morning set.

This is a family-rent restaurant on Route 14, the main road connecting Chiba and Tokyo.

We’ve been there since nine in the morning, just the two of us. "You know, you're dealing with the Touko-senpai, don't you? Do you really think it's that easy?

I said sharply, and Ishida held up his left hand and waved it from side to side.

It means “no no no”. "Even if it's impossible, it's a man's duty to go for it. What did you do? You stayed with the crying Touko-senpai for a while, kept an eye on her until the time when the last train ran out, and then took her home? What the hell is that? What are you, a virgin high school student?" "Shut up, man. I'm not a scumbag who takes advantage of a girl's weakness and makes her his property!

No, actually, I would have if I could have done it.

But if I tried to do that, Touko-senpai would definitely reject me harshly.

That’s the kind of woman she is. "Well, you missed your best chance. If you had played your cards right, the story might have turned out just like I told you." "You have a vivid imagination. You should be a novelist or a screenwriter." "Oh, that's a good idea. When this is all over, maybe I'll post the story on the Internet as a web novel."

“You know, if you do that, I’ll have to cut you off for good.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll only write a novel with a happy ending.”

Ishida then laughed.

Is this guy really worried about me?

I hope he’s not just being funny. "So what are you going to do now?"

Ishida suddenly asked with a serious face. "What do you mean?" "You're finally going to do it, aren't you? ['The strategy of making your partner fall in love with you in the best possible way and then dumping them on the worst possible way? "Yeah, ......."

I thought about it as I sipped my coffee.

When you’ve made your partner fall in love with you the most, say goodbye and spend the night with someone else.

If it’s Touko-senpai, I think it’s possible.

In fact, as far as I can tell, Kamokura is completely in love with Touko-senpai.

But I wonder if I can make Karen fall in love with me to the point where she doesn’t want to leave me.

Judging from the way she sounded on the phone the other day, it seems like Karen’s feelings are already on the verge of leaving me.

It’s already hard enough to win back the heart of someone who is on the verge of leaving you, but it’s impossible to make them love you the best they can, isn’t it? "It seems that Touko-senpai is thinking of a strategy right now. ......" "What, leave it to others? You' ve got to take care of yourself." "It's no use. If it was that easy to figure out how to get a girl to fall in love with you, you wouldn't be struggling with this from the start!"

When I retorted in a miffed tone, Ishida stretched out as if leaning back against the seat. "You're right. If it were possible, there would be no couples breaking up in this world. If such a thing were possible, would there?"

It’s not that easy.

But …… you’re absolutely right.

Then again, that’s not the only thing I have to worry about.

I have to be chosen as the one who will spend the night with Touko-senpai at the last moment.

Even if it’s one of them, isn’t it a super difficult challenge to pull off?
