Chapter 55 the Day After X-Day

08 MAR 2022NOOBCHAN TRANSLATION MY GIRLFRIEND CHEATED ON ME, SO I CHEATED ON HER

Yu Isshiki, a freshman in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Joto University

His girlfriend, Karen Mitsumoto, was cheating on him.

The other party member is Tetsuya Kamokura, a senior at Yuu’s high school and college, and a member of the same circle.

However, Kamokura has a beautiful girlfriend, Touko Sakurajima, who is known as the “Shadow Miss Joto University.

She is also a senior whom Yu Isshiki has admired since high school.

When Yu finds out about the affair, he becomes desperate and demands that she have an affair with him.

However, she told Yuu that she had a more effective way to retaliate.

The method was to ‘pretend to be the one who made the other person fall in love with you the most, and then spend a night with another person.

Yu and Touko devised various schemes and decided that Christmas Eve would be the X-Day to retaliate against the two unfaithful couples.

The X-Day arrived.

On the day they are voted as the best couple, Touko and Yu declare that they are going to break up with their lovers.

They also revealed Kamokura and Karen’s affair.

Karen, upset, lashes out, and leaves the venue.

Meanwhile, when Touko declares that she will spend the night with Isshiki Yuu, Kamokura tries his best to resist, but is unable to give a satisfactory answer to Touko’s final question.

Touko and Yuu head off together to a hotel in the bayside area.

Yu and Touko enter a hotel room.

Yu formally proposes a relationship with Touko.

Touko agrees to the proposal.

However, just as the date changes, she tells him that her father has come to pick her up and that she is leaving.

Yu is stunned.

“I have never had sexual relations with anyone.”

“I won’t do it until I’m married.”

And then she walked away.

What is the fate of Yu Isshiki?

“I told you to stop putting weird narrations on ……!”

I said in a gruff voice to Ishida, who started humming the background music of the famous “BanKer drama” and singing “moo-moo”.

“No, as expected, you can’t blame me for being told off this time. Yu. Because everything went according to plan, you know?”

Ishida made a “zu, zu” sound and sipped his coffee.

This is a family restaurant on Route 14 that Ishida and I frequent.

After X-day, I stayed overnight at a hotel by myself and left the hotel without waiting for the 10:00am check-out time.

There he promptly asked, “How was it last night?” Ishida sent me a curious message.

So here I am, having lunch with Ishida.

“I finally got my wish and ended up spending the night at a hotel with Touko-senpai. And she was willing to go out with me. But she told me she wouldn’t have sex with me until we got married, and she sent me home. Come on, dude, even high school cherry boys go for the more aggressive approach.”

Ishida looked me up and down over his coffee cup as he said this.

“Don’t make it sound so easy. Ishida was not there, so you can say such a thing. She said to me, “I’m not going to have sex with you until we get married!” When she declares that! You could do nothing”

If I had forced my way in there, even my “relationship” with her would have ended.

After all, I’m still in the process of getting a “temporary boyfriend license.

Ishida sighed and put his coffee cup back on the table.

“Indeed. Even Kamokura, the man of a hundred battles, couldn’t get his hands on it. How could Yuu, a “non-virgin first-year student,” do anything about it?”

I didn’t answer that.

On second thought, you’re right.

Even Tetsuya Kamokura, the super handsome, fun-loving, flirtatious guy, was a manipulative “iron virgin” who couldn’t stand the test of time.

There was no way I could do anything about it.

Ishida’s words continued.

“I feel sorry for Kamokura, too, when I think about it. He had been courting her since high school and was rejected without being able to do anything about it. Moreover, the junior took her away from him. ……”

I think about that a little too.

If Kamokura had not cheated with Karen, my girlfriend, I would have felt sorry for him.

Ishida leaned back against the back of the seat and looked up at the ceiling.

“That’s like saying, ‘I’m not having H until we’re married!’ If she rejected me, I’d probably cheat on her if a cute little girl made a pass at me.”

“What happened to Kamokura-senpai after that?”

I don’t know what happened after that because we declared our “breakup” and walked out of the party.

Ishida must know.

“He was quite depressed, as you can imagine. Nakasaki-san took him outside and comforted him, though. He seemed to be crying half the time. I’ve never seen him like that before.”

I felt a prickle of pain in my chest.

However, there was no need for me to feel guilty, since I hadn’t done anything to him.

“So Yu, are you okay?”

Ishida raised himself from the seat and asked me this.

“What?”

“Because you can’t do anything with Touko-senpai until you marry her, right? Now you are in Kamogura-senpai’s shoes. I mean, can you keep your eyes off other women?”

I looked at Ishida, miffed.

“What are you talking about? Of course not. I would never cheat on her!”

“Really? How many years do you have left before you get married? Three and a half years until I graduate from college. Plus two years if I go to graduate school. Even if you get a job, you can’t get married right away. Even if the two of you continue your relationship, it will probably take about seven years before you get married. Are you going to continue only ‘clean relationships’ with each other until then?”

Seven years …… I felt a little shaken up when I heard him say that …….

Again, thinking about it, that’s quite a long time.

Ishida pushes me further into silence.

“We’re only 19 years old. Our early twenties will be the age when our desire for the opposite sex will be the strongest, right? During that time, you will have to wait with “Touko-senpai’s top-notch body” by your side, you know? And even if you keep putting up with it, you still don’t know if you’re really going to get married to her, do you?”

“I don’t have a choice. If I don’t, I won’t be able to go out with Touko-senpai. Besides, how can I betray her like Kamokura did? You’ve been encouraging me all this time, and that’s what got me this far.”

But my words seemed weak compared to Ishida’s tone.

Ishida again rested his weight on the back of the seat.

“I would never do that. I would rather have sex with a normal girl once a week than to have to put up with being a second virgin for years and not knowing whether I would end up with Touko-senpai.”

I did not refute Ishida’s words and sipped my coffee silently.

“By the way, how do you plan to go out with Touko-senpai from now on? Correspondence? An exchange diary? Or do you two go to school together?”

Ishida said it as if he was making fun of me.

I glared at him.

“I’m not thinking about anything right now.”

” Don’t you want to meet during the winter break?”

It’s winter break from today until January 7, the first day of the new year.

“In fact, I just got a message earlier asking about your winter break plans.”

I said in a weak voice.

“Oh, and?”

“I heard that it is unlikely that we will see each other during the winter break.” She said. “Touko-senpai is going to Hawaii with her family from the end of the year to the beginning of the new year.”

….. I’ll see you at the university. Yu-kun!……

It brought back to me her voice last night when she said that.

“Huh, that so soon after you decided to go out together? I guess we’ve got a lot of work ahead of us.”

Even Ishida said, disappointed.

“She told me that every New Year’s Day, her family spends the holiday in Hawaii.”

“I guess they must be rich.”

“Well, both parents are doctors. They have a nice house.”

As if to dispel the somewhat toned-down atmosphere, Ishida said in a cheerful voice.

“Well, that’s all right. Let’s play together again this New Year’s! Last year we went to Hatsumode together before the exam, remember? Let’s go again this year!”

“Two years in a row, two guys make the first pilgrimage together?”

I chuckled and thanked Ishida for his concern.

Well, maybe this kind of thing suits us better.
