Chapter 27 - Touko-senpai's "Pretty Girl Project

I spent the weekend thinking about the “cute girl” that Touko-senpai had asked me to make.I’m still thinking about it as I lie in bed. …… “Cute girl”, huh? I knew she is a beautiful girl. She is kind. She’ s usually a good girl, but sometimes she’s a bad girl. …… While I was thinking like that, for some reason, I naturally thought about Touko-senpai.She’s beautiful, neat, ladylike, but also kind enough to comfort me when I’m having a hard time, and the girl who cried last week when she saw her boyfriend cheating on her. …… No, no, no.This Touko-senpai is asking you, “What is it like to be a pretty girl? right?And what are you going to do if I answer, ‘It’s you’? …… Well, the other thing is …… she’s a good cook, homey, spoils me sometimes, but lets me spoil her. She’s cold to other guys, but only to me. …… I can’t help but unconsciously imagine Touko-senpai again.Touko-senpai is cooking for me in her apron.She smiles and says to me, “Today’s beef stew is really good.After dinner, I would watch TV with Touko on her lap pillow.And when it’s time to go to bed, she curls up on my chest like a cat and clings to me. ……In the dark, she gently undresses and removes her bra. “Only you, ……, can see me like this.” What did you say? …… What the hell was I thinking?There’s no way I can tell Touko-senpai about this!In the first place, this is all just my wish! …… Maybe it’s my fault for thinking on the bed. …… That’s what I thought, and I got up and turned on the laptop on my desk. …… Yu Isshiki, summarize the definition of “cute girl” in 50 words or less: ……

That’s what I commanded myself in my head.I started up the editor and listed down the conditions. “She is a cute girl, a beautiful girl, and kind. She’s usually cool, but actually has a weak side. She shows her weak side only to me. ……” This is going to be tied to Touko-senpai, after all!I can’t, isn’t my head occupied with Touko-senpai when it comes to women right now? That’s when. The vibrator on my phone vibrated.I looked at it and saw that it was a social networking message from Ishida. >Yu, are you free right now? >I had some things on my mind, but I’m fine. >Then come out now. I’m not busy either. >Okay. Where are you? >The usual diner on Route 14. You’ll be here soon, right? >Okay. I’m leaving home now. I closed my phone and quickly got on my bike and headed for the family restaurant along the national highway where Ishida was waiting.My house is a house on the ocean side of the national highway.Ishida’s house is an apartment closer to the national highway.The family restaurant where we were to meet was only a short bicycle ride away from either of our houses. I enter the restaurant and look around.Ishida, who has already noticed me, raises his right hand and signals me.I take a seat at a table by the window.As I sit down on the seat, Ishida gives me a quizzical look. “What’s the matter, Yu? What’s wrong, Yu? Is there something wrong?” 

“Hmm? No, just something.” “What’s the matter? I’m curious. Tell me. Is it about Karen?” “No, it’s nothing like that. It’s not that serious in the first place.” “Then tell me. It’s not serious, is it? I’ll think about it with you.” You’re right. I can’t think of anything on my own.Maybe I should ask for Ishida’s opinion. “What do you think are the requirements for a ‘pretty girl’, Ishida?” “Conditions for a pretty girl?” Ishida looked at me strangely and asked back. “Yes, that’s what I’ve been thinking about since yesterday.” “Hmmm…” Ishida folded his arms and began to think. “Well, it’s probably a beautiful girl. I think it would be best if you added adjectives like ‘best in school’ or ‘admired’ to it.” ……The beautiful girl of my dreams is Touko-senpai. …… “Also, big tits are really good. You can’t go wrong with a slim body and big tits.” …… slim and big tits. I think it’s Touko-senpai. …… “Also, the term ‘tsundere’ and ‘kuudere’ is also qualifier for being cute with certain boys.” ……Touko-senpai is in the tsundere and kuudere category, isn’t it? There’s not a lot of dere elements, but …… 

“Blonde hair.Twin-tails are so moe, aren’t they? …… Touko-senpai has long black hair, but it would look good with blonde hair. Twin tails would be nice too. …… “I like the idea of a girl in a band.” …… If it’s Toko-senpai, the image is more like a violin or saxophone. Oh, and a saxophone for the band: …… “Childhood friends and sisters who are not blood relatives are very exciting situations.”……? Sure, that might be a good idea. ……?But it might make me happy that Touko-senpai suddenly ‘became my sister-in-law’! ……“I like animal ears. Especially cat ears and fox ears.” ……? You want animal ears? Oh, but it sure would be cute with Touko-senpai’s cat ears. …… “You can’t go wrong with a magical girl. It’s a very revealing outfit.” ……??? A magical girl? That’s not even close to cosplay. ……“Hey, Ishida. What are you talking about?”Ishida looked as if he had been pulled back to reality from a dream. “What? What are you talking about? From anime or manga.” I was an idiot for asking you. …… I pressed my forehead lightly.However, I was also riding on top of Ishida’s imagination by having Touko-senpai appear in his fantasy. “You know, if there was a magical girl in real life with animal ears, would you be able to date her?” “I can go out with her. My love doesn’t discriminate! Magical girl or beast-eared girl, I’m all for it!” Ishida said with confidence. That’s enough.I’ll get over this problem on my own, without relying on others.Finally, I said.

“I don’t mean to criticize your taste, but you should stop using the ‘sister’ attribute. If your real sister, Meika , finds out about it, she’ll think you’re weirdo.” Such fantasies are only allowed to me, an only child, or those with male siblings. “Oh, by the way, Meika was worried about Yu…”The topic suddenly changed.Speaking of which, Meika found out about Karen and Kamokura’s affair, right? “I see. Tell her, “I’m fine. Thank you.” “I understand. But Meika wants to know a lot of things about you. She’s so annoying.”  She’s at an age where she’s interested in that kind of stuff. But Ishida shook his head left and right. “No, probably not.Meika has a thing for Yuu. I can tell from the way she talks to me.” I looked up, startled by his words.I thought Ishida was making a joke again, but he looked serious.Ishida continued. “I’ve had that feeling for a while. Whenever Yu comes over, she’s always very careful about her appearance. she even cleaned his room, which se usually doesn’t do. But this time, it became clear to me. She likes you.” Suddenly, my best friend told me such a story, but I didn’t know how to react.When I was confused, Ishida was the first to answer. “This is not the time for Yu to be worrying about Meika. First of all, you have to retaliate against Kamokura and Karen-chan. And in the end, you’re going to spend the night with Touko, right? That’s all that matters, right?” I nodded silently. But how far along am I in that plan?I’m not sure I’m making any progress at all.
