CH 9

After that, I left the house with Rinke, and of course, I had to remember to lock the door.

Our house is close enough to the school that we don’t need to take the train to get there.

However, it takes about forty minutes to walk there, so I always go by bike.

Onii-chan, I’ll ride at the back again today.

“Ah, yeah, sure”

“Hmm? What’s wrong?”

I never thought I’d see the day when I’d be pedaling a bike with a girl on the back.

Well, she’s a girl, but she’s my little sister.

And I don’t even know if it’s legal.

There are often depictions of two people riding on the same bicycle in the world of romantic comedy manga and light novels, and in those worlds, there are probably no legal restrictions.

Yeah, I’ll take that as a yes.

This world of “ojojama” probably has no legal restrictions either.

“Well Rinke, is it fine? Are you on it properly?”

“Yeah, I’m fine”

“All right, let’s go!”

At the start it’s heavier and more painful than riding alone, but once you’re moving, there doesn’t seem to be any problem.

It’s difficult to start and stop every time there’s a traffic light, but it’s a piece of cake when you consider that it’s for such a cute little sister.

Then I peddled straight to the school for about ten minutes and arrived at my usual spot.

Well, it’s just a usual place for Tsukasa Hisamura in this world, I’ve never been here before.

I am supposed to drop Rinke off a little bit away from the school.

This is why Rinke is always rushing me to get there early, because if I don’t leave early, she is going to be late.

“Well, thanks, Onii-chan.”

“As I always say, I can bring you to school if you want. I’m not tired at all.”

“It’s fine, I’ll walk from here on, you go ahead with the bike.”

I guess she doesn’t want people to know that she rides a bike to school with her brother.

“Um, okay. But let’s go to school together once in a while. It’s more fun that way, right?”

“Sometimes I meet friends and talk to them as we walk.”

“I-I see”

That’s right, if you ride a bike to school, you won’t have the experience of youth, such as walking to school side by side with your friends.

I used to walk from the station in my previous world, so I know the joy of bumping into friends and then going to school.

Maybe I should try walking to school in this world too.

But it’s a long way, and I’ve got Rinke …….

“We-well, I guess it’s ok, sometimes.”

I think she was worried since I looked a little depressed, but Rinke said that to me while looking away shyly.

“Thank you, Rinke”

I was so happy that I patted Rinke’s head again

“Hey, Ba-Baka! Don’t pat my head like that!

“I’m sorry. I’ll be going first, Rinke. Don’t be late.”

I stepped on the bicycle pedals before she hit my chest again.

‘Ah.Onii-chan BAKA!’

When I heard such a voice, I didn’t feel angry because the way she called me “Baka” was so cute.[TLN: Bloody masochist]

After riding on my bike for a few more minutes, I found someone I knew walking beside me.

I mean, I know him, but that was through….

“Hey, Yuichi!

“Hmm?　Oh, Tsukasa.”

It was Yuichi Shigemoto, the protagonist of the manga, “My childhood friend, Ojousama, gets in the way, and I can’t have a normal romantic comedy”.

He has short black hair and a clean, fresh and handsome face.

He was quite tall, with a height of over 180 centimeters. This is probably why he was on the basketball team

I lined up next to Yuichi, got off the bike, and started walking with him.

“Hey, no morning practice for the basketball team?”

“Oh, not today. I got a good night’s sleep thanks to that.*

“I see. I guess even the ace of the basketball team takes days off.”

“That’s right. Resting is part of the practice.”

Yuichi is very athletic and has been the ace of the basketball team since his freshman year. And he has a good face so he’s popular

I know him well, because he’s my friend, and he’s just a normal guy.

Yuichi has all the elements of a popular guy, but this guy mistakenly thinks he is not popular.

The reason for such a misunderstanding is because of his childhood friend, Kaori Tojoin, who loves him.

Since kindergarten, Tojoin had a crush on Yuuichi, so Tojoin pressured the girls around him in order to keep them away.

He’s so cool that he could have a fan club if he really wanted to, but this guy still thinks he’s neither cool or popular.

Well, that’s Tojoin’s fault, so I guess it can’t be helped.

However, Yuichi has fallen in love with someone in high school.

That’s the other heroine, Shiho Fujise.

“I’ve heard about you, Yuichi. I heard that you finally asked Fujise out on a date.”

“What? Where did you hear that from, ……?”

“Of course, it’s just a rumor.”

“Are you telling me that you’ve awoken your power to the WIND ELEMENT!?”

“Hmm, if I wave my arms, I can lift the skirts of all those women but I can’t go any further.”

“Eh, really?　Come on, there are lots of JKs around here.”[TLN: JK means Joshi Kosei, Highschool girl.]

“Don’t call highschool boys JK”

We were having a very wholesome, high school boy-like conversation.

Well, I never thought that I would be able to enter the world of Ojojama and have such a stupid conversation with the protagonist.

I’m not as happy as I was when I talked to Sei-chan, but I’m honestly happy as an otaku.

“So, who did you actually hear it from?”

“I’d like to say it was Fujise, of course, but I just overheard her talking to Shimada.”

“Seriously, …… what did they talk about?”

“Of course, she said, ‘Shigemoto-kun asked me out on a date, but he’s too creepy for me.”

“What?　Oh, you’ve got to be kidding me. ……?

“Hahaha, just kidding.”

“Even if it’s a joke, it gets stuck in my heart, so seriously, stop.”

“That’s bad.”

Well, actually she was talking about something really cute like “Can I really confess my feelings to Shigemoto-kun?”, but that’s probably not my place to talk about.

“When’s the date, tomorrow or the day after?”

Today is Friday, so I’ll have the weekend off tomorrow.

“It’s Sunday, and it looks like both the basketball and tennis clubs don’t have practice.”

Oh, Well, I guess I don’t really have anything to help you with, but good luck”.

“Ah…Of course…”

“Oh, You seem to be talking about something interesting, Yuichi.”

Yuichi was about to nod strongly when he heard a woman’s voice from behind him.

We froze with our mouths open.

N-No way.., These thoughts were running through our mind simultaneously

Moving with movements like a robot, we turned around and ……

“Good morning, Yuichi. Hisamura-kun.”

“Mor-Morning Kaori”

“Goo-Good Morning Tojoin-san”

There was Kaori Tojoin, one of the heroines, with a terrifying smile on her face.

Her golden hair, shining divinely, flowed beautifully down her back and was swept by the wind.

Her hair is so beautiful that it represents her elegance.

She is wearing a school uniform, but for some reason it looks even more pure and gorgeous when she wears it, even though it should be the same as the other .

Her face is very beautiful and her facial features have a japanese feel..

I think she was a quarter european, Her grandfather was a european descent.

“So, Yuichi. You’ve been talking very happily all morning. Would you mind if I joined you?”

“Na-Nah, it’s just something me and Tsukasa can talk about since we’re both guys!　Right, Tsukasa?”

“Yeah, I guess so, You don’t want to hear about Yuichi ordering me to lift up the skirts of all the JKs around here, do you? [TLN: You traitor, I love you]

“When did I ever tell you that?”

Yuichi retorted with a ridiculous amount of energy

Calm down Yuuichi, we have to divert the story first.

“Oh, so what were you talking about, Yuichi?”

“I didn’t order him to lift people skirts, It’s just Tsukasa muttering to himself wanting clairvoyant powers to see naked Highschool girls”

When did I ever say that?

Now it was my turn to retort.

“Oh, Hisamura-kun, it’s not good to spread your desires around. If you’re going to do it, do it in the privacy of your own room.”

“Tojoin-san, you seem to have a surprisingly high tolerance for this kind of thing.”

“I’m learning every day so that Yuichi can attack me at any time.”[TLN: Fuuu someone is feisty ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)]

“Good for you, Yuichi. Now your future is decided as the president of Tojoin Group.”

“Wait! You betrayed me!”

Shut up, Who betrayed the other first? Well I guess it’s me.

Well that goes off topic

“So Yuichi, do you have any plans for the Sunday after tomorrow?”

Oops, I’ve made a sharp turn and went back.

“N-No, Well my club has….”

“The volleyball team will be using the entire gym on Sunday.”

“How did you know even if you’re not from the volleyball club.”

“Because it’s me.”

As expected of Tojoin-san, she’s the daughter of the man who founded Tojoin High School.

Well that’s probably a completely irrelevant part of the story, but I’ll praise it anyway.

“Thank you, Mr. Hisamura. So, do you have any plans for Sunday?　If not, why don’t you have a party at my place? We can rent out a luxury cruise ship and throw a party.”

“You have too many luxury cruise ships”

The scale of money she spent is extraordinary

“We-Well, anyway, I don’t have any plans for Sunday, but I want to take it easy! I have basketball practice until noon!”

“Oh, I see. Yesterday the basketball club was on holiday. That’s why you muttered, “I wanted to practice early so I get to get a day off.”

“Wait a minute, when did you hear that?　I think I said that last night!

Whoa, Yuichi, I don’t think you should ask any more questions than that.

That’s the dark side of Kaori Tojoin, a childhood friend heroine who probably contains a yandere element, is not ready for you yet.

“All right. If Yuichi doesn’t want to talk,It’s fine, I have an idea. Well, I’d better get to school. Have a good day, Hisamura-kun.”

“Oh, Good day to you too.”

With that, Tojoin walks toward the school, with her hair swinging smoothly.

Yuuichi and I froze there for a while.

“…… Tsukasa. I know you said earlier that you didn’t think there was anything you could help me with, but I need your help with something.”

“Hmm? I can already predict what you want help with, but ‘What do need help with?’”

“Kaori Tojoin, Keep her at bay”

“Of course I can’t, use your common sense. And explode.”

“WHYYY?”

Well…., What should I do now?

I mean, was there ever a development like this in the original?
