Chapter 1001 How to correct it When I arrived at the place where I was going to meet one of my girls, the girl’s first action was to run up to me. Not to jump in my embrace but to use her handkerchief to wipe the sweat off my forehead.
Unknowingly, I got a little exhausted from evading those who were shameless enough to block a stranger.
Maybe it's just me. The difference from before this transformation was just too high. Shameless or not, if all your life you’re living with only so few to notice you, you’d be just as overwhelmed by the sudden flip of your situation.
It will wear off, eventually. That’s for sure. But as someone who possessed a lot of secrets, especially my relationship with the girls, the time I used dealing with the unnecessary attention was whittling my concentration little by little.
Fortunately, my girls could relieve that fatigue… And that’s what was happening now.
After wiping my sweat, the girl, Yukari, led me somewhere we could sit. I naturally followed while admiring her back.
As she pulled me down to sit next to her, my arms moved on their own, wrapping them around her waist followed by my head comfortably dropping on her pronounced bosom.
I inhaled her fragrant sweet milky sweat and pressed myself deeper, burying my whole face in hers.
A second later, her familiar warmth seeped into my skin, giving me the comfort that I sought. Following that, her hand gently dropped on top of my head and brushed my hair affectionately.
A soft giggle could be heard as the girl’s soothing voice tickled my ear, “For you to be this exhausted is very rare, Ruki. If I’m not wrong, people’s gazes have started to get on your nerves. Or if not that, you’re already at the point of getting too conscious about your appearance… Must’ve been hard. Although different points, it’s almost the same as what happened to me when… I started developing faster and much bigger than normal girls my age.”
Upon hearing that, I couldn’t help but agree to it. This girl has also experienced the sudden flip of her situation when everyone started looking at her because of the development of her bust.
Even now, she’s receiving those gazes from many boys and men alike. Girls also often stared at her in irritation and envy for her bouncy front.
“Mhm… You’re right. I thought I already got it together yesterday but it seems, I’m still too conscious about this sudden popularity…” I lifted my head a bit to look at Yukari.
The first thing that registered in my eyes was her smile filled with her affection. If I could be a bit exaggerated, it’s like I was instantly shot by an arrow that accurately pierced my heart. It tugged a little painfully and only by kissing her did it subside slightly.
And being wholeheartedly welcomed by the girl amplified it. It became a cycle of my heartstrings being tugged and easing up by conveying my affection for her.
Although we were definitely at a park and there were the sounds of kids laughing as they played among themselves, I couldn’t stop myself from savoring this moment with Yukari.
Nonetheless, we still had to stop at some point. And once we did, the girl pushed me down on her bosom again.
“That kiss was amazing but we have to return to our topic, right? You helped me change a lot. That's why, Ruki, I think it's my turn to repay you for it. This might not be too helpful given that our situation was different but can you listen to me for a while?”
“Mhm… I’m listening.” Despite my whole face buried in her comfortable softness, I managed to utter that response at the same time as I hugged her tighter.
Feeling her caring hands lovingly caressed my head and hair again, my mind relaxed completely. It’s too comfortable to be this close to her.
“Great. Then let me start with the day I found myself being the center of attention…”
And so… Yukari told me her story. It’s something I never heard from her before as it was like a dark history of her life.
I mentioned it a lot of times, her chest was already at the level of an adult like Miwa-nee. Although not as emphasized to a woman who already produced breastmilk, it’s still big enough to always become the focus of anyone that could notice it.
Anyway, her story was only short since she overcame it even before she could be too depressed from being teased a lot by it.
Although ignoring the unsolicited gazes would work most of the time, what Yukari did was accept everything. If she heard someone comment about it, the girl would just bravely emphasize it further, making the other person uncomfortable by looking at it.
Obviously, with her personality of being too easy to coerce, or someone that is too gullible, some tried to score with her, like asking if they could feel it.
Fortunately, she already had Elizabeth at her side at that time. The pre-chuunibyou phase of that girl, according to Yukari, could be described as a cool-headed and brave girl who wouldn’t back down to anyone. A tomboy of sorts yet she’s too elegant to even be called one.
Elizabeth would stop those idiots to take advantage of her.
That sounded truly interesting, although I could sometimes pull out the normal Elizabeth. I met her when she was already the Cursed Princess.
Anyway, from Yukari’s story, she’s simply telling me that the answer to how I could pass this phase was to… accept it and… become more conscious of it that it would eventually become stale for everyone to see me flaunting it.
In short, be as shameless as I could get.
That sounds easy yet troublesome at the same time. I might get a new title along the lines of ‘The Narcissistic Prince’.
Anyway, it still sounds like useful advice. I could tweak it a bit, to fit me.
“… Among everyone I encountered, I think you’re the first one whose focus wasn’t on my unusually large chest… The first time we met, you looked me in the eye and gave me your gentle smile without your eyes wandering off somewhere… I think I started admiring you right at that moment, I’m too easy, aren’t I?” Ending her story at that, Yukari let out a dry laugh.
“Not really… You know how I worked hard to steal you… Because you didn’t have it in you to easily betray someone… even if the guy coerced you into a relationship… That’s why never call yourself ‘easy’… I’m proud of my Yukari.” I looked up again and reached for her cheeks. After fondling it a few times, I also let out a laugh to comfort her, “Also, thank you for telling me this… I think I now know what I have to do.”
“E-eh? Are you going to…?”
“Whatever you’re thinking… I might really do that. Let’s try…What do you think of my face? Can I rival those pretty boys?” I intentionally did that gesture of placing my chin at the gap between my outstretched thumb and pointer finger while widely smiling.
As soon as Yukari saw that, she burst into a peal of hearty laughter before grabbing that hand and blocking my stretched lips, “Pfft! That didn’t suit you at all! Keep it natural! But yes, Ruki… You’re more handsome than we all thought. It might not be wrong to call you a heartthrob by now.”
“Natural, huh? My natural look is intimidating, you know? Alright, since we’re here… help me make it perfect.”
“Sure! Leave it to me… But I’ll take a photo of you each time and send it to them… How’s that?” Yukari instantly answered as a teasing smile rose from her lips.
Ugh… If I think of it as a sacrifice for my girl’s entertainment… I guess I won’t mind being turned into a laughingstock.
“Alright, deal.” I put on a defeated smile and listened to the girl’s clear laughter.
Just like this… I spent the next few minutes working on my facial expression and acting while listening to Yukari enjoying every second of it.
Well, more than wanting to fix my state of being conscious with the stares, I was now more eager to make the girl laugh or girls. Those who were seeing my photos taken by Yukari were also laughing at it.
Before I knew it, some of the kids that were just playing earlier started crowding around us, laughing along with Yukari at my various antics.
