Chapter I TO.MO.YO
“Yuichi…”
Chise whispered my name and used her hands to slowly unbutton her pajama top.
Her small but white-skinned breasts let out a small moan at the touch of my fingers.
“Awwww!”
A small voice… It did not sound like a sign of complaint. Her breasts were fully on display; and her nipples hardened with surprise, and her body turned hot.
“Please, please!”
She whimpered as she slowly removed her pajama pants with her tiny fingers. Then she narrowed her eyes shyly and lifted her tiny waist.
The pajama pants were being slowly removed.
Soon there was a white glow in the darkness… I knew that it was the glow of Zhi Shi’s silk panties…
Moreover, a honey-like liquid began to emerge from the interior of this white glow at some point, at which point the girl’s voice slowly raised.
“Yuichi… ah ah ah!”
I slipped my fingers into the exposed gap in my boxers to explore Zhi Shi’s sensitive area.
“Ah… ah, Yuichi!”
When the girl realized I was doing this, she half opened her mouth and let out a sweet cry.
Zhi Shi’s face turned red and she grabbed me nervously.
The soaked panties made her vital parts slowly emerge.
“Please… please!”
I knew what she was “asking” for, but I was deliberately trying to make her anxious.
“Yeah? What?”
“┅”
“Why do you want it?”
“┅”
The girl’s cheeks grew red.
“Yuichi… ah…”
“Go ahead, tell me what you want.”
“I… I can’t take it anymore.”
“Uh-huh!”
“This is not good…”
Where exactly is it bad? At this point, the girl blushed strangely and exclaimed.
“Get off me!”
Yaaaaaahhhh!
I sat up with a yell.
Ah, it’s the worst of the worst nightmares lately.
It’s been half a month since Tomo and I started dating.
I still remember it to this day, and it was already last Christmas.
I, who didn’t have a girlfriend, and my friend, who didn’t have a girlfriend, went to the neighborhood Kebini store to buy rice cakes to be used during the New Year.
Why buy rice cakes at Christmas? One might wonder this.
In Japan, where 90% of the population is Buddhist, should we celebrate Christmas with joy or should we face the resurrection of Jesus in a serious mood, and then have the courage to push out the bad desires in our hearts and face the future with a brave attitude? Well… I can only live a life of self-loathing in a mood of loneliness.
But I don’t think there are many customers in Kebini on Christmas Day, are there? There are just couples going to the hotel for Christmas, or kids buying snacks at the store to pass Christmas Eve, or young guys like us buying pornographic magazines to spend the long night.
More incongruous was a dude who weighed about eighty-five kilograms and wore glasses, and I don’t know what he was in for.
As I was getting my rice cakes to check out at the counter, an angel descended.
“You? Aren’t you Katsuragi-senpai from the varsity basketball team?”
The girl forgot she was working and yelled out; causing the rather old, middle-aged store manager to give her a blank look.
She hastily spat out her tongue to indicate her outburst.
“I often go to watch Senpai’s games yeah.”
The expression of surprise and delight that appeared directly on her face, together with her sweet smile… This situation, for me, what happened in this instant, is really like a myth etched in my heart forever!
In high school I put my heart and soul into learning basketball.
I don’t consider myself to be a useful human resource, but once I have something that makes me worth committing to, I focus on it without distraction.
After joining the varsity basketball team, I didn’t get a girlfriend right away, but I often received love letters from my admirers, and I got a lot of Valentine’s Day chocolates.
However, my next goal was not to get a girlfriend, but to get into the university of my choice.
‘Nowadays, you can’t be useful if you don’t put in a lot of effort and loaf around.’ That’s what the teachers at school and my parents used to tell me.
So, for me, I have always held the spirit of ‘great and noble goals’.
So, for such a person I will not give in to any boring girl.
That’s not to say that I only want to have the perfect date with the best girls.
Instead, I said, I think it’s not too late to focus on my studies and get into the perfect college before I get a girlfriend.
However, not everything in the world is as perfect as it seems. When I look back, every one of the girls who gave me love letters; or confessed their love to me at that time, got boyfriends before graduation.
I have not regretted it for that.
All my classmates who were members of the basketball team with me had girlfriends and broke up with them, and then had other girlfriends.
These are not things to feel sad about either.
I didn’t get into the college I wanted, but I got into a top private university.
However, when I managed to squeeze through the narrow gates of the university to have a good relationship and have fun; I realized that I was also a newbie in the relationship wars. In fact, I think it was too late.
Of course, it’s not like I don’t have a chance.
I’m not bad looking, and I maintain a friendly relationship with girls in the same club or grade. However, I realized that the other guys, they are very clear about what to do on a date and the information about the art and literature, why?
Would it be too much of a waste for a student to go for luxury sushi?
Girls will be girls.
A walk in the park, a movie at the cinema… What could you possibly have against such a date?
Anyway, isn’t a date just something that guys plan and do as they’re supposed to?
If you don’t simply have a meal or a drink, then how will you have the money to pay for a hotel?
Although I do work part-time, I probably only make about 50,000 dollars a month!
Despite this, I was occasionally labeled as ‘looking good, but in fact not being good’; up until the time I met Knowles (and still do, actually), I had remained a virgin for nineteen years.
However, I don’t have the slightest regret about it. For me, it’s right to spend a little more time in order to find the best women; it’s boring to pick up girls who are compromised as soon as they get off the ground.
However, such as I am, I hide big wishes inside.
That is, I don’t want to be a virgin anymore… that is to say, I will say goodbye to my virginity until I am 20 years old.
After having a girlfriend, that deadline was getting closer and closer. After a lonely Christmas Eve, I don’t know if it was to compromise or to jump out of my old self, but I just fell into it.
Of course, from the next day onwards I used to run to the Kebini store.
Kisei is a schoolmate who is a year younger than me.
Once she graduated from high school, she enrolled in a specialized school near Kebini.
“My hair seems longer now.” As she herself said, she grew her hair longer after graduation, but it didn’t take away from her beauty at all.
After I was attracted to her, I continued to visit the Kebini store every day without fail, despite the fact that it had to take twenty minutes to get there from my accommodation.
Also, since I don’t know when, Zhi Shi would greet me with a happy smile; she would chat with me when the other guests weren’t around.
By extrapolation, it would have been about a week after the second week I started going to her, right? After I beat the little ball of steel, I ran to the Kebini store where she was on duty.
“Ah. Senpai.”
Knowles smiled her usual smile again.
“Shopping again today?”
“Eh!”
“You seem to enjoy shopping yay.”
“No, that’s because I don’t live at home.”
“Yeah? Really?”
“Eh.”
“Why? Isn’t your school close to home…”
“It’s easier to bring girls home this way.”
“Yeah?”
“I lied to you. Because I like to be free.”
“Wow, that’s why you shop here so often.”
“(Actually it’s fine if you don’t come here…) Yes, yes.”
“Isn’t it bad to eat bento all the time?”
“That’s not all! I’ve come to see Jijii…”
“But today’s bento is all sold out… I think there are only hand rolls left.”
Zhi Shi immediately lowered his head as if apologizing after saying that.
It’s so cute~ Ah! No, not today.
“I… I’d like to buy tickets for this concert.”
I pointed to some rock group that seemed to be popular on the arts and culture information board posted next to the counter.
“Ah, this one? This can be booked directly over here ooh.”
She frowned a little when she finished.
“Are you buying two?”
“Uh, 2 tickets. Any S seats?”
“Yea, there should be. I’ll check first…”
Zhi Shi operated the computer a little and quickly found the information about that concert.
“There, no problem. Do you, do you want two?”
“That’s right that’s right.”
I take out the money to pay the bill and pick up the ticket back.
“What’s wrong?”
I saw a troubled and complicated expression on Jisai’s face…
“You have a good eye, Senpai~ I really like this concert too.”
“I know. You kept recommending this to me last time, didn’t you?”
Here’s the thing.
When the two of them talked about music the last few times they were here, the band that Zhi Shi said was currently unknown but would surely be a big hit in the future turned out to be this one.
“What’s wrong with you?”
“Busy at work? Can’t make it?”
“Well, even though I was on vacation that day… I was the only one who had to go…”
“Why did you go alone? Is it…”
I immediately took out the tickets I had just bought.
“Yeah? Senpai?”
It was a pivotal moment and I didn’t hesitate to say it.
“I bought two of them just to invite you there.”
At that moment, Zhi Shi’s face suddenly brightened.
She exclaimed with big twinkling eyes and a smile on her lips.
“Great, I’m so lucky!”
“So you’re saying yes Lo!”
I don’t know if her smile was a result of someone inviting her to listen to her favorite music, but at least I can be sure that her impression of me must be slowly changing for the better.
Suddenly, the words she spoke were like a gift to me.
“Of course, I like you so much!”
At that moment, my brain was churning like angels were dancing… I guess I could compare it to that.
However, that was the prelude to the beginning of our relationship.
“True to form, Katsuragi-san, I should be able to call you Hyakuninushi, right?”
During English class on Saturday morning, my friend Matsunaga started teasing me.
This Matsunaga dude is the guy I went to the Kebini store with on Christmas Eve.
He doesn’t have a girlfriend either, but it’s not like he hasn’t had one because he’s not free.
Rather, it’s because that’s when his gap period happened to be.
When he first started college, he was the first one to be productive.
I don’t know when or for what reason Matsunaga and I became good friends. Since Matsunaga was in the university department of an affiliated high school, he wasn’t better than me at reading, but he was great at playing.
Of course Matsunaga wasn’t bad looking, and he qualified as a handsome man in terms of the Hatchlings.
“Hey! Matsunaga, why did you bring your English textbook for Saturday?”
“Don’t be sarcastic, don’t you know you dumped that girl?”
Strange, how did he know?
“Yeah? How do you know?”
“We know all the people in that kepini store well, and if we get on good terms with the clerk, will that girl ever escape us?”
Matsunaga floated a devilish grin.
“Yes, so it is!”
I feel like I’ve been red in the face for a long time.
“It’s rare that you’re so serious, are you for real this time?”
“No, no, don’t say that again…”
“But the other guy seems to care about you.”
“How?”
“Every time I go to that store, she asks ‘How’s Katsuragi-senpai?'” “┅”
“It’s the question she asked the day after you were there.”
“Ha! Ha! Ha…”
I had to giggle helplessly.
“But at that time, I was really upset; so I talked to her for thirty minutes about girls being dumped by you…”
“You really say that?”
I accidentally yelled.
Matsunaga, however, smiled deviously.
“I do want to do this…”
When he finished, he held out his hand.
Shake hands?
I thought Matsunaga was going to shake my hand, so I pushed his hand away.
“Are you gay?”
“Yeah?”
“I’m asking you for money to gag me with!”
“Why would I, why would I give you money?”
“That’s good, then I’ll just have to go to Kebonyi and talk to her more often.”
As expected! Matsunaga, this boy, is really unreliable.
“Tell me, which girls have I abandoned!”
“Mie from the History Department, Yoshimi from Hakuba Shodai, and Ms. Hwa-hyang from Four Seasons Coffee…”
“Not at all~”
Is this the kind of person who fabricates facts?
“What’s wrong?”
The more Matsunaga sees me troubled, the happier he gets.
“I just received a love letter from Mie; I sat next to Yoshimi at the sorority; and as for that Hwa-hyang, I just frequented the Four Seasons Café for coffee, nothing at all.”
“So, are you going to let those ladies down?…”
“It doesn’t even come close to being abandoning them!”
“Or are you treating Yoshimi as a Miss-in-waiting. Why else would you, who rarely shows up at sororities, send her home?”
“It’s not like I’m dating her! Just dropping her off at home and you’re doubting me.”
“Alas, it would be good to let my little brother do this kind of thing for me ah.”
“I’m not going to let you do it! Who doesn’t know that you guys have been publicizing me all over the place; calling me a virgin killer and a schoolyard gigolo.”
Matsunaga suddenly waved his hand as if he was surprised.
“It wasn’t me who said that. Wow! I can’t believe you’re so good at what you say!”
“Not from you?”
“Idiot! I envy you; if it were me, I’d simply publicize myself like this.”
“You envy me?”
“Yeah, that’s something to envy!”
Another person, joining the conversation between us.
“What are you doing here, Shimamura?”
Yayoi Shimamura was a classmate of mine in high school.
“Are you two talking comic relief again?”
“We’re not that boring.”
“So, you guys are fucking gay?”
“No!”
“Hahaha…”
“Matsunaga, stop laughing!”
“Hey, you know Yuuichi he’s famous among girls, right?”
Matsunaga asked Shimamura about it.
“I don’t know the facts, but I heard it all the time in high school.”
“That’s the first time I’ve heard that yay!!!”
The last person to know about this amazing event was actually… me.
“This has something to do with Katsuragi-san being on the basketball team ooh!”
“Hey, how come I don’t even know.”
“Yes?”
“Yea, don’t you get a lot of letters from admirers…”
Shimamura looked at Matsunaga, then spread his hands in a feigned helplessness.
“See, that’s what this guy is like.”
Matsunaga looked at Shimamura and said, “He’s too slow…”
Shimamura nodded at Matsunaga in approval of his words.
“Once I entered the university, I finally wanted to have a proper date, I didn’t realize that I couldn’t even find a girl that satisfied me, right~ Yuuichi.”
Shimamura irritated me inquiringly.
Unexpectedly, it was Matsunaga who reacted first.
Matsunaga asked, half-jokingly, half-angry, pointing at my head.
“Are you, are you deciding whether or not you want to date by whether or not you can have sex with you.”
“No, no…”
“This won’t work. If I don’t speak to that girl…”
“No kidding!”
“That’s how I was nicknamed ‘schoolyard gigolo’ and ‘virgin killer’ despite being a virgin.”
Here’s the thing. I want to make one more thing clear.
Matsunaga was abandoned by Shimamura a week before Christmas Eve.
They were laughing at me all because of Zhi Shi.
It’s been 2 months since we started dating until spring break.
I think it’s time, so I’d like to ask Zhise to go on a trip.
At the same time I may have made a wish to make it a trip to take a virgin’s virginity.
I often bought women’s magazines to gather information, and in them there were questions about “how to get her to remove her panties”; and the magazines recommended hotels in the highlands or on the lakeshore, so I hurriedly made a reservation.
I went back to the Kebini store as usual.
“Chise, isn’t spring break coming up?”
“Yeah, spring break is a month after Valentine’s Day.”
“Do you… have any programs?”
“I can arrange a part-time job, and if Yuichi wants to ask me out, I’ll say yes.”
She said and then smiled mischievously.
Wow~ It’s so cute!
She used to call me “Senior” or “Katsuragi-senpai”, but today she called me “Yuichi”!
Yuichi… Wow, what a beautiful voice and angelic murmur.
Wow…
“So, so, let’s go on a trip, shall we?”
“Going on a trip?”
Zhi Shi cocked his head and inquired once more.
“Are you going with… both of you?”
“Uh… uh!”
Zhi Shi looked at me mischievously again.
She was so cute it made my heart flutter and I could feel how nervous I was.
“To, to, the rooms are of course for one person.”
I’m so stupid! I’m so stupid!
What the hell is the plan here!
It would have been better if we hadn’t asked her, and once we did the plan wouldn’t have worked.
LOL! I’m a boy with the actions of a middle-aged man, and if I don’t get more active I’ll soon be abandoned. Alas, she will surely abandon me. No, I can’t be abandoned.
Woo-hoo!
“So it’s going to be a sleepover! When do we go?”
As if she couldn’t see my internal struggle, the girl continued to ask me for details.
“Yea, well, how about March 12th or so?”
“Yes, you can!”
Yay? The girl was surprisingly quick to agree.
I’m such an idiot, I should have known better than to mention the room and just muddle through, right?
Ugh, forget it.
Even though the rooms are different, you can still be together.
We close the windows at the same time as the trolley departure whistle blows.
The train, in which we were riding, glided gently along the tracks; and I was in a mood to leap, as in a dance of joy.
Especially, I’m sitting next to Zhi Shi, so it’s hard for me to be in a bad mood.
When the train passes through Takasaki Prefecture, a car selling bento passes by on board.
“Look, it’s a train lunchbox.”
Zhi Shi said with an innocent smile.
“Yeah, what do you want to eat?”
“Makunouchi Bento, of course!”
“Yeah? Is it good? Is the Makunouchi bento good?”
“How?”
“Because we are traveling so hard, we should eat local…”
“It’s okay.”
“Yeah?”
“It’s not bad to eat Makuuchi bento!”
“Yes… I’m sorry, I want the Makuuchi Bento.”
“Please give me one!”
Zhi Shi ordered a bento and all I could do was watch in awe as she paid the bill.
“┅”
It was as if she noticed my sight, then she smiled and pulled a packet out of her bag.
“Yuichi, you eat this.”
Inside the packet was actually a squashed rice ball and a cute shaped omelette bento.
“I was going to make it for 2, but I accidentally failed…”
“Jis…”
“If you don’t want to eat it, then you can have the Makuuchi Bento.”
Who wants to switch with you? I’m so happy.
It’s true that her bento was a little too salty, but it’s a flavor that all haute cuisine can’t match.
“Is it really good?”
“Mmm, it’s delicious!”
“Too good.”
Such a beautiful smile from Zhi Shi made me say goodbye to all the uneasiness in my heart.
Our train entered the cool Karuizawa Station slowly…
“It’s cold.”
Knowles put his hands in front of his mouth and blew gently.
But what exactly is the cause of the cold?
Although Karuizawa has a highland climate in early spring, it’s strange to say that it’s not cold when you’re wearing a thin shirt and white shorts like Chise is wearing.
Of course the happy person is me.
“We’d better get to the hotel first!”
“Uh, how do I get there? By bus?”
When I asked, Zhi Shi shook her head like a child and said no, no, and then continued, “Let’s just walk! I want to take a walk with you in this beautiful place.”
Wow, wow, wow, wow… ah, it’s so cute.
Of course, I had no problem with that. I immediately took her hand and stepped out into the stride.
We walked forward with our backs to the snow-covered Mt. Asama, and Chise and I walked side by side in a stance that looked like the plot of some romantic movie novel.
We walked and talked.
We chatted about TV, celebrities, movie plots, etc., and told each other what we liked…
However, since I was walking slightly behind Zhi Shi, I accidentally saw something mortifying and delightful.
Underneath her white shorts, faint traces emerged… Of course, being innocent, she was not like those women with no standards who deliberately wore colorful panties underneath their white panties; however, I really saw small triangular traces… hahaha… wahahaha… wahahaha…
“Hey!”
Suddenly, Zhi Shi turned his head toward me.
Ah!
“Yuichi, are you tired?”
Ah, I suppose so.
While I was disgusted by my own weakness, I was glad that Jeet Seok was so unguarded… I, a man like me…
But such things must not be discovered by her. I was as careful as I could be, too, and then I added.
“It’s okay, it’s only a little distance to the hotel.”
“Ugh! We should have taken the bus.”
“Yes!”
“But, I wanted to walk with Yuu or two.”
“Jis…”
“Yeah!”
Zhi Shi smiled when he finished.
Come on, it’s the perfect time for a kiss! Come on, kiss her! In this situation, I’m sure Zhi Shi also wants to be kissed by me.
I closed my eyes and hugged her shoulders.
The smile on Zhi Shi’s face disappeared and she kept staring at my face.
“Yuck! Yuichi, you’re so horny!”
This innocent voice sufficiently curbed my desire.
“Ha! Ha!”
I let out a sad growl.
And she was red-faced and laughing.
“What, what’s wrong?”
“No… no, it’s nothing.”
“Too good!”
I don’t know what she was referring to, but anyway, let’s get to the hotel first!
Since this is a vacation and leisure resort, there are many hotels but none of them lose their luxury and beauty.
When we walked into the hotel, we went to the counter to check in for housing first.
“I’m Katsuragi, I have a prior appointment.”
“Yes, please wait… you do have an appointment, please sign here first.”
The waiter started by placing the key to the room on the counter.
“There are 2 of you.”
“Yes.”
“You’ve booked 2 rooms.”
“Yes.”
“I’m sorry, but that other guest must also sign.”
“Yeah, okay, okay.”
Zhi Shi, who was standing not far away, immediately panicked and walked into the counter.
“Then, Mr. Katsuragi will take room 1120 and Ms. Shiina will take room 1121.”
When I finished the waiter handed me the key personally.
“Look, what do people think of the relationship between the 2 of us?”
Knowshi asked me this question while smiling embarrassedly.
This is the restaurant of the hotel.
After we dropped off our bags in our room first, we took a walk around the hotel as it was almost time for dinner.
“Yeah?”
“You mean, there’s no room with a single bed at the Risonde Hotel, then?”
Although I wanted to be in the same room with her… I couldn’t show it.
“You said it. People must think the 2 of us are on bad terms, right?”
“So, why don’t we stay in the same room?”
Is she tempting me?
“Uh, yeah.”
“So much fun!”
Am I not looking forward to something more fun~
“So, when do we leave tomorrow?”
“Ah, you have to be at the station by 5:00…”
“Let’s play tennis!”
“Yeah, I have an appointment!”
“Bummer, I’m playing like shit yeah.”
“Really? I’m looking forward to it!”
“Ugh…”
Zhi Shi hastily smiled again.
“What?”
“Can I come to the senior’s room tonight?”
Heartbeat! So…
Has she also made a decision? Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo…
And, after she spoke the next sentence, my heart blossomed even more.
“I’ll take Daddy’s drink with me.”
Wow wow wow, isn’t this a graduation trip? Wahahaha!
But maybe it’s something that comes very naturally to her.
But I think she’s still a virgin…
It’s nine o’clock at night.
Zhi Shi did come as promised.
“Haha, I brought wine!”
When she finished, she held out the whiskey in her hand to me.
But I couldn’t take my eyes off her.
I wasn’t entirely unaware of what my attractions really were; or I understood perfectly well the deliberate teasing of her.
But what was the status of her entering a boy’s room in a Japanese bathrobe prepared by the hotel?
The skin from her neck to her chest was exposed and even glowing with snow.
I suppressed my rationality while the girl just looked at me with a reassuring, unguarded smile… “Let’s have a toast first!”
When she raised her glass, I saw the white underarms of her…
I instinctively drank, yet how was my plan going to work with alcohol at the forefront of my mind?
I stared blankly at Zhi Shi’s face… I sensed that she was very angry…
What to do? After the simple trip, we can still keep the original happiness between us, right?
But… even so, there were only 2 months left until my 20th birthday.
The deadline for virgins… to lose their virginity at the age of 20 is only 2 months away.
I was more scared and nervous about this than I was about the university entrance exams or confessing my love to Ji Seok….
But, when you think about it, Zhi Shi is also strange.
At her age, she should be very interested in sex and must have absorbed a lot of common sense; could it be that she has a boyfriend like me and doesn’t want to try sex at all?
Or, could it be that she… ah, it must be, she has… no, she must not have done such a thing.
But the specialized school she went to had a lot of delinquent girls… Or did they go to sleep in a hotel after someone treated her to a romantic movie… Or did she understand my feelings but hated me?
Or, was she born a big idiot?
Ah, I really don’t understand girls!
However, one must not be afraid to take action just because one does not know, “even the gods and spirits do not want to give up halfway”; therefore, once a man has made up his mind, even if he encounters any obstacles, he must not fail to make efforts to achieve it.
Midnight in early summer.
The sound of the music that I had heard a moment ago faded away at some point; all that was left in my ears was the sound of Zhi Shi’s gasping breath.
“┅”
She really had the innocence of an angel, and I watched her silently.
Zhi Shi’s large eyes were quietly closed, her jaw tilted forward at about a forty-five degree angle.
These lips are meant for me to kiss.
Zhi Shi shivered.
However, her hands circled toward my back. Slowly, she puts her strength on me, as if catching me with all her might.
With a nervous and expectant expression, Zhi Shi looked at me speechlessly.
“Don’t be afraid.”
I said softly and softly.
Zhi Shi nodded and let my hand lead her to bed.
She placed her hands on her all-white bra.
“Uh…”
Zhi Shi’s body instantly hardened. However, that was due to me unbuttoning my bra.
Soon, tofu-white skin surfaced in front of me.
When the cups were removed, modestly shaped but pretty bosoms appeared in front of me.
“Nasty… don’t look.”
“It’s beautiful, Chise.”
As I said this, I moved my mouth closer to the apex of Knowles’ chest… and kissed her pink nipples with my tongue.
“Whoa!”
Zhi Shi’s body instantly became stiff as if an electric current had passed through it; then immediately, like a mollusk, all the strength of his body disappeared.
Kisses from the nipple to the neck and then the mouth.
While their tongues were touching, we were also enjoying the pleasurable sensation… Zhi Shi also closed his eyes and felt the sensation of their flesh touching.
Then I moved my tongue to the lower part of Knowles’ body…
By the time I realized it, Knowles’ panties were already wet with some liquid.
“What is it?”
I asked wistfully, while Zhi Shi turned red and didn’t answer.
Since she was so responsive, I slipped my hand into her panties.
“Ahhhh!!!”
Zhi Shi unconsciously raised his waist while gasping for air.
She had such a childish look on her face, yet it was as if she was very demanding of the touch of my fingers on her lower body; her waist lifted up again.
In one breath, I ran my fingers up the gap.
“Ah! Bugger!”
With such a pitiful cry, I saw a dense black… poof appear on the lower half of Zhi Shi’s body!
No, no, no, I’m in the fantasy world again.
But these things would have actually happened.
It’s just this opportunity. If only I could take it.
Chapter 2 Maiko
“Why do you have to go?”
“It’s up to you, just think of it as a basketball player’s potluck! It’s just to make up the numbers, so ignore the girls if you’re not interested.”
Matsunaga patted me on the shoulder when he finished.
“I’ll be sure not to tell your girlfriend, and if you’re afraid of a girl looking at you, you can go home at the first party.”
“Someone’s got their eye on me!?”
“You can’t push it, or I’ll tell your girlfriend.”
Matsunaga semi-threateningly asked me to go to the sorority.
Like he’s got the whole picture. What a pompous ass.
Until I met Chise, I had lived without a girlfriend for nineteen years, and there was probably no one like me in my college class.
The fact is that many of them have had girlfriends and have a wealth of information and knowledge gained from magazines and books.
However, it’s not that I don’t have experience in sorority; I’ve been to many similar events in the past.
These opportunities, however, were introduced and arranged by Matsunaga.
I don’t know why I was so popular when I first joined the sorority. Whether I was eating or playing games, I was surrounded by girls.
Matsunaga often laughs at himself.
“I’m so unattractive that I can’t even compare to Katsuragi.”
And his girlfriend at the time, Shimamura, protested.
“You’re overplaying your hand, get a grip.”
“Weren’t you warned?”
“It’s just for fun once in a while.”
“Yeah?”
“Ugh, just go when you’re told to go, why are you being such a bitch?”
“The next time we have a reunion, people are going to say, ‘That’s the game you used to love to play.'”
“I’m very playful! Don’t you think so!”
“Well, don’t play dumb!”
That’s how it was, originally I had no interest in sorority anymore (since I got a girlfriend in Chise); but since Matsunaga was hosting this time, I couldn’t refuse (and he was threatening me with Chise as a hostage), so I had to participate.
The other side is a women’s university and a fine arts university.
Suck! These girls are the type to stray from the scriptures and are mostly shown to be emotionally exhausted.
The fact that the location of the sorority was chosen to be an izakaya in Shibuya shows their character.
Matsunaga really is a longtime talent for socializing, and he’s able to rent even this expensive place with a great atmosphere and good lighting at a low price.
There were five male members, while the girls attended in equal numbers. It was obvious that these girls are wealthy and seem to be used to occasions like sororities; whether it be in dressing up, playing games, boxing, they are very good at what they do.
“Come on, let me introduce you to today’s hottie, he’s Yuuichi Katsuragi, a student who was on the varsity basketball team.”
That Director General Songyong introduced me in such a way that I was framed…
Gee, I really hate myself.
Yet Matsunaga surprisingly continues his evil behavior.
“You know what? He’s made at least fifty or more girls cry, like he’s a Heisei era school whoreboy and virgin killer; so all you girls beware.”
“You’re rambling~”
“Hey, we’ll all know if I’m talking nonsense if we try it. However, I’m not going to be responsible.”
A chaotic occasion.
It’s called fellowship~!
But is it good to be popular with girls or not? I’ve noticed someone looking at me…?
When parents add the word “dance” to their child’s “name”, they must want their child to be elegant, slender and like a good girl.
However, the girl seems to be a failure in my senses.
She wore her hair short, with a little brown color. However, she didn’t seem to have a playful, lively vigor; how can I say, although she was only eighteen years old, she seemed to have gone through a lot of changes, and her face appeared to have a sense of weariness. She did, however, have the flavor of a mature woman.
She was dressed in an all-black outfit, which on closer inspection was a strapless jumpsuit; her breasts were ample despite her slender frame.
“Yea, you don’t look too tall.”
She sat next to me in the sorority and her voice was slightly more subdued than the other girls.
“That’s the hair, isn’t it! Don’t jump to conclusions about my height so early.”
“Eh.”
She looked at me and smiled thoughtfully.
“Are you really a campus whore?”
“No, no, no? It’s not that I’m kidding, I really can’t get a girl to do anything.”
“Y… I see.”
She said as she opened her lips slightly covered in red lipstick.
“Any questions?”
“Uh, it’s nothing.”
“It seems you don’t believe me.”
“Can I trust you?”
“How so?”
Next thing I know, I’m in that girl’s trap.
She asked a question, I answered, then I asked another question. Then the girl took the opportunity to change the subject again, so I guess that’s probably the art of talking!
After that, we started a boring conversation that lasted maybe thirty minutes?
After this short time together, I gradually discovered that behind her sultry temperament, there was a womanly charm that the world of knowledge did not have.
“Hey, are you still a virgin?”
By the time Maiko asked that question, the two of us had already begun to raise our glasses and were in the middle of a conversation about love.
In fact, I don’t even know when I got into this kind of topic, probably when I started to feel Maiko’s charms; I forgot about Chise for a while and discussed this topic with her instead.
I kept telling myself in my mind that Zhi Shi was very good girl; in order to speed-date with such a good girl, I had to make myself the best boy too.
As it turned out, it ended up that I had to take Maiko home.
As I’ve said before, my classmates think I’m a playboy. In fact, I just have an empty name, for the first time to meet a girl, to ask me to really approach her, without relying on alcohol is not possible.
“Why did you, why did you ask me that?”
“Hoo-hoo!”
In response to my confusion, Maiko gave another odd smile before she snapped again.
“Do you have fantasies about girls?”
“┅？”
Asshole! What kind of eyes does she have on me?
Even a pretty girl like Zhi Shi goes to the bathroom and farts; wouldn’t she? No, maybe she already has a boyfriend.
I’m probably the only one who doesn’t know about this.
As a result, a slight bit of uneasiness passed through my mind.
I’ve always believed in my heart that she’s still a virgin, right?
If it’s really like what I saw in my dream, when we’re done, she’ll say, “You’re useless, let’s break up!”
If she says that…
No, no, never let her say that!
I tried very hard to hide my inner turmoil, and once I told what had happened with Chise in Karuizawa, it was bound to become a very shameful event in the history of my relationships.
But little by little, the words that were on my mind were powerlessly presented one by one in front of Maiko’s face.
I felt the helplessness in the words, but at first Maiko didn’t react.
“So cute!”
Maiko lit her cigarette on fire, then her mouth murmured.
Can she understand what I’m thinking? It took her 2 minutes after I finished talking to get her next response.
“Chise is really cute!”
“No, I mean you!”
“Did you say… me?”
Her answer really surprised me.
“Yeah, you’re really funny.”
Maiko said this and smiled mischievously.
My back felt cold, on such an unseasonably cold night.
It’s like stepping one foot into the unknown, the fear and the thrill of it.
Maiko seemed to understand my state of mind at the moment, and she said something to comfort me.
“Do you, do you want to light that thing up?”
It was the first time she had been so single-minded in her verbal seduction.
I can say that I know a little bit about Zhisei, but I wouldn’t be a decent person if I refused Maiko’s invitation at this moment.
“Ah, ah, it’s okay!”
“Well, let’s wait!”
After she finished speaking it was as if she had immediately forgotten what she herself had told me, and then she walked into the next room surrounded by the boys and chatted with them.
Then some other girl sat over next to me.
This girl was also very sweet and immediately and unapologetically complained to me as soon as she arrived.
“Geez, I’ve been wanting to talk to you for a long time, but I’ve been hogged by Maiko.”
“Yeah?”
“That Maiko, she’s been to the sorority a few times, but every time she doesn’t see what she likes and leaves without even talking to the boys.”
“Really?”
“Looks like she found her prey this time.”
“Yeah, the prey is…”
“Of course it’s about you.”
“Me?”
“Did she invite you?”
“┅”
“Hey, to us, she’s really classless.”
“How?”
“To put it badly, she’s one of those people who doesn’t talk but has a lot of heart, and she’s very good at putting out bait and fishing.”
“！？”
I didn’t realize that this could be related to bait fishing.
The sorority was nearing its end, and it seemed that those in attendance had found someone they wanted to get their hands on; the boys were beginning to scratch their heads over what was next on the program.
Director-General Matsunaga, run to me.
“It’s really hard to tell, I didn’t think you’d decide on it right off the bat.”
“No, you don’t say.”
“How are you going to spend the night? Not bad.”
“No… nothing…”
“That woman doesn’t say anything. Well, I’ll ask you for the results tomorrow, yo!”
Matsunaga doesn’t know what he’s up to as he smiles wickedly and pats me on the shoulder then leaves his seat.
“Hey, wait a minute!”
“What is it?”
“Come here…”
I called Matsunaga to a dark corner.
“Actually, Maiko did invite me. She asked me to ‘send her home’!”
“Isn’t that great? She must have had another agenda to invite you, right?”
“No, but it’s the first time I’ve been invited so suddenly.”
“Say yes, let’s try it out! Maiko’s not bad looking!”
“Is it pretty?”
“What? You’re not interested?”
“What…”
Matsunaga looked at me suspiciously.
“Yes, a little.”
“Wouldn’t it be better for you to hold on to the idea of ‘sleeping and seeing anyway’?”
“How do you~”
“Hey! That’s good! I thought you didn’t want to be a virgin? Enjoy it!”
Matsunaga left after that.
I did fret about the whole virgin thing, but how could he say it in a nutshell ~ besides, time was slipping away relentlessly and my deadline was up.
“Everyone! We have come to the end of this association for the time being… Please come together for the next program.”
Matsunaga declared loudly. At that moment, as Maiko said something to her companion, a cry of “Katsurako-san, please send Maiko away” rang out in the store.
Everyone’s eyes were on Maiko and me.
My inner thoughts were so choppy that I wanted to raise my fist (just think in my mind) and hit someone.
Bastard, Matsunaga, you’ll see…
Outdoors it was early summer weather, but I could feel the chill.
Suddenly, I looked at Maiko who was walking next to me, and her exposed thighs were actually wrapped in mesh stockings.
We walked the streets of Shibuya after the fellowship.
Right in front of us is Hotel Avenue.
“Well? Going in?”
Maiko shook my hand.
“Yeah? Uh-huh.”
It was as if I was very gutless.
If Zhi Shi finds out that I’m going to a hotel with a girl I’ve known for 2 hours, she’ll hate me.
Oops! I can’t believe that agreeing to give it to her means that you have something in mind to look forward to, and she’s been so direct about it.
I think Maiko must be quite used to doing this kind of thing; I wonder if she’ll laugh at me for being a virgin who doesn’t even know the tricks of the trade.
But does any man turn down a woman at this point?
If, for example, I refused an invitation from a beautiful woman like Maiko, people would definitely take me for a homosexual.
“To… to which one?”
I asked her with courage.
“Puh… drum… wahahaha!”
Maiko burst out laughing.
“？”
“Don’t you know? How can a hotel be available at a time like Friday?”
Maiko walked while holding her tongue as she finished.
“There’s a nice bar up ahead that doesn’t have many customers in it, want to sit there.”
“Yeah, is it expensive?”
As much as I wanted to say yes quickly, I was afraid that not having enough money on me would cause a joke, so I asked first.
“It’s okay, it’s about three thousand dollars for drinks.”
It seems like she really does have a boyfriend, doesn’t she?
“Look, it’s right here.”
Maikan said as he pushed the door open.
There are 8 seats in front of the counter and two tables for 2 to 4 people in the center. Everywhere the decor is filled with an antique flavor and the store gives a clean feeling.
The lights were very dim and it was difficult to see the faces of the people around them.
This bar is not the cheap, student-friendly place that magazines write about, but rather a bar with a homey atmosphere for familiar customers to rest in.
The customers in the store didn’t seem to know Maiko well, but the waiter did greet her.
“Hello and good night!”
After the waiter said goodnight to Maiko, he looked at me again with a surprised expression. Of course, Maiko replied to him with a blank expression.
“Come on, sit down!”
Maiko gestured for me to sit down on the couch.
We sat facing each other.
“I’ll have a martini. You want…”
“Me, I’ll have coffee milk.”
The waiter’s brow furrowed, and the expression of wanting to laugh and get angry gave the atmosphere a strange feeling.
“He ah, it’s his first time.”
Maiko hastened to explain to lighten the mood.
“Cheers!”
Maiko raises her glass and stares at me quietly.
I made an even smaller noise than I had earlier and asked her sensitive questions again.
“You don’t seem to be in a lot of sororities do you?”
I tried to ask her based on what the other girls had just said.
“It’s not nothing, it’s just that I’m bored and want to go back soon.”
“Why?”
“Passing the time! Aren’t you?”
“Ya, um, well… there’s a reason why I’m here today.”
“You’d be in deep shit if Ms. Chise knew.”
As if Maiko had suddenly lost interest, she averted her eyes.
“Can I smoke?”
“Ahhh, go ahead.”
The cigarettes Maiko smokes are not quite what she gives off as she surprisingly smokes Short hope.
“You look so forlorn when you smoke.”
“Ah, that ah, that’s a good name for a sign! It’s called Ephemeral Hope.”
“Short hope…”
“Hmph!”
“Yeah, what’s up?”
“No!”
“But why do you like it? Isn’t the hope of Waterhenge better?”
“That’s the problem, just like me and you.”
“┅”
Maiko had finished her second glass of martini while I switched from coffee milk to plain water.
“Is it better to hope for a short time or for eternity…”
Maiko asked herself.
“Hope is fleeting then isn’t it pointless to die?”
“Well, you’re right to say that, but I think differently than you.”
“I see you don’t understand.”
“I’m thinking fantasy is just fine.”
“Fantasy?”
“Yeah, it’s like you fantasize about everything you do with your girlfriend. Dreaming, fantasizing…”
Maiko mumbled at the end as if she was speaking to herself.
“What things do you mean when you say I fantasize about myself and Knowles?”
I asked, a little confused.
“Not her specifically, just any woman.”
Maiko answered me lazily.
Then she was breathlessly silent…
Maiko took the cigarettes out of the white cigarette case again, then lit them with a match from the store.
The color of the smoke glowed purple in the dim lighting.
I unintentionally looked at the purple smoke ring.
At that moment, Maiko sat down next to me and she gently cupped my jaw before making a long kiss.
“┅！”
“Got it?”
“┅Yeah, what, what?”
“Mmmmmmmmmmm!”
“！？”
“If you don’t know, I’ll teach you next time.”
After Maiko finished speaking, she took out a small note and handed it to me.
This piece of paper had her action phone number written on it.
“That’s it!”
She said this as if to signal that I was going home.
“Yeah? You’re not going to teach me now?”
“I’m not in the mood today, next time! Bye!”
Just as in the case of being set up earlier, she had a very strange attitude; and not knowing what was going on, I chaotically walked out of the bar with her.
The next day was the day I was supposed to meet up with Chise who I hadn’t seen in 2 weeks.
We had a date at the zoo at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday morning.
If I had normally gone out with her, I would have felt happy; today I had the feeling of being unsatisfied.
Jisai was as cute and innocent as ever; his white shirt with a healthy smile gave him a happy feeling, but I…
Since we wanted lunch, we walked out of the zoo together and then into a nearby burger joint.
“That… Kazumi and her boyfriend…”
“Eh!”
“┅”
Zhi Shi suddenly looked at me with worried eyes.
“Hey Yuichi, what’s wrong with you?”
“Yeah? What, what is it?”
“You, you’ve had a weird expression since just now.”
“No, no right!”
I squeezed out a smile at Knowles.
“Really?”
“Really. Ah, I must have not slept well yesterday because I was so looking forward to today’s date.”
“Wow, so happy. Me too yeah!”
In fact, I didn’t sleep well because of Maiko…
About Maiko… No, no, it’s what Maiko said.
Is the Zhi Shi standing in front of me now a product of fantasy?
Surely things shouldn’t be that bad, something must have gone wrong.
Would Chise want to know… these things?
I didn’t just want to see Zhi Shi’s smiling face, I also wanted to share her crying face, her face when she just woke up; and her face when she was making love… I wanted to see her expressions at different times.
However, whenever I see Zhi Shi’s smiling face, my mood becomes this better.
“What are we going to do next?”
“Well, how about we go play video games or go bowling?”
Knowshi innocently answered my question, but I seemed to keep the same weird expression that I’ve always had today.
“I’d like to be alone with Zhi Shi if I can.”
“Y…?”
Zhi Shi’s cheeks immediately flushed red as if she was suddenly startled.
“That’s… good.”
“Why don’t we take a walk in the park!”
“Eh!”
By the time we arrived at the park on the outskirts of town, it was 3pm.
“Wow, this park has boats!”
Zhi Shi screamed with bright eyes.
“Come on, let’s go sit down!”
“Yeah.”
Lovers in a boat on the lake… it looks like they are painting.
We quickly walked towards the boat ride.
“Woohaaa, I’m so happy!”
Zhi Shi was smiling brightly, but I was in a weird mood.
We’re nothing more than a couple of ordinary lovers.
“Nasty!”
“I’m sorry!”
Drops of water from the oars accidentally splashed on Jeok-seo’s body
Zhi Shi glared at me unhappily.
“Look, it’s my new shirt yeah.”
“I’m sorry!”
The problem was under the shirt though.
As the shirt was splashed with water, the pink bra clearly emerged under the white fabric!
“Nasty! My clothes…”
Knowshi panicked and covered his vital parts.
However, all the important parts of her were reflected in my eyes one by one.
If you didn’t get splashed, you just can’t see as well as you did a moment ago, so there’s nothing to be ashamed of, is there?
I’m sorry! It’s hard to understand women’s feelings…
However, if I had been shown more detail, I might have fallen off the boat.
There was nothing special, but we had the boat and went to a nearby grassy area to sit and talk again, and had a leisurely smelling happy hour until 7:00 PM.
It was now in the early summer season, and the park was quietly darkening; there was no sound of children’s laughter or family clamor in the area, and the surrounding area was very quiet.
We were sitting on the grass in the center of the park when Chise suggested, “We should go home.” So we took a walk to the park’s entrance road.
The walk from here to the exit is about 200 meters long, but this part of the journey feels very far to me; there are many leafy places on both sides, which are suitable for couples to talk about love.
Here, stimulated by the environment, many innocent girls, in order to confirm their feminine instincts, usually go into heat without thinking…
It’s a big bet on the gamble of life for me.
We slowly moved forward.
The street trees on both sides are continuous.
I wonder if Knowles has the same idea as me.
“I still want to be with you, want to sit on the bench?”
I struggled to squeeze out the passage to Knowshi.
Knowshi hesitated for a moment, then followed me and sat down again.
“Do you want me to get some juice?”
Zhi Shi immediately tried to stand up after saying that, and I lightly pressed her shoulder to stop her.
“Just… a little longer…”
We both sat speechless for a while.
With the setting sun still shining, I took a closer look at Chise through the park’s mercury lights.
Her shy face, her beautiful eyes, her lovely lips.
Also, the slightly protruding breasts, the thin waist. The bra straps on her shoulders that peeked out slightly from the thin slits in her shirt.
This one didn’t seem like the Knowles I knew, and I sensed her growth, and female self-assertion.
At that moment, a couple sitting diagonally in front of them made a move.
They couple sat next to each other like Chise and I. The girl with long hair circled the boy’s neck with her hand and pressed her lips to his mouth.
“Z… Z…”
Soon the two of them, oblivious to our presence, began to make kissing noises as the girl put her hand between the boy’s legs.
The boy slowly unbuttoned the girl’s jumpsuit as well, and in the darkness they stroked each other’s bodies.
Knowles watched the two of them in silence, and she seemed excited about it.
Sweat broke out on the hand of Zhi Shi that I was holding.
Her throat swallowed.
I saw that the situation was good and coldly kissed Zhi Shi’s earlobe.
“Ah…”
Chise lets out a small yelp, but I continue to kiss her without minding; she lets out an even bigger yelp, but catches me tighter.
“Jisei!”
I said as I ran my hand up Knowles’ ass.
I slowly grabbed the hem of Chise’s skirt and her lower half was gradually exposed.
“Pleasing… disgusting.”
Knowshi said while thirsting for my kisses.
We kissed for a long time.
“Is it here…”
I said to Chise who seemed to be about to cry.
“Then, we’ll do it at the hotel…”
Cheeky and blushing, she nodded and said, “Let’s go to the hotel…
This plan (or should I say delusion) was derailed solely due to Zhi Shi’s overreaction.
“Hey, Yuichi. Do you see what they’re doing?”
Originally, her voice wasn’t very loud, but coming from her on this silent night the question was quite devastating.
The couple trying to get things started in front of us glared at both of us with a stern look.
I could feel the displeasure of having the fire of love between the two doused, so my instinctive reaction was to hastily take Zhi Shi’s hand and lead her out of the park.
“Did I, did I, did I do something wrong?”
She seemed to have not yet realized that she had made a mistake, and questioned me in a matter-of-fact tone.
I started to get angry at her.
“Ha! Ha! Ha!”
Maiko laughed in a bashful tone.
“Is that so funny?”
I asked her indignantly.
This happened after I told her about my date with Knowles.
My relationship with Maiko seems smoother than with Chise.
After a week of dating Chise, I picked up Maiko’s phone number for some reason.
Probably, at this point, I’d like to hear what she has to say!
Or maybe it’s me who sees Maiko as a love doppelganger!
I was probably trying to use her as a guide for romantic or sexual relationships.
A simple boy is supposed to be cute, so Maiko should have a soft spot for me!
We’re meeting at 7:00 PM.
Maiko, wearing a red linen dress outfit, looked like a big, mature and charming beauty in every way.
If you ask pedestrians on the road, I’m sure everyone will think we look like siblings.
I had been planning the date for a long time, but I couldn’t imagine that I would still lose out to her; because she asked before I did.
“Let’s make a date at that last store!”
She seemed to be in complete control of the situation and asked me to meet her at that store.
“Why do you want to do it but not make it clear?”
She stated in a shocking way.
Doesn’t she understand that boys have reservations too?
Ever since I’ve been dating Chise, I’ve been researching things like popular information, hotel magazines, and romance novels.
So I guess if I really had to arrange a dating schedule, I wouldn’t lose out to other guys.
Which restaurant is good; which movie is good; what topic is fun, etc., I know all of these things well.
However, there is nothing in the book about how to convince a girl to “do it with you”.
It was written that ‘the chances of having a relationship on an average of 3 dates are high’, so I was prepared for that on my third date with Chise.
But it still doesn’t work.
I can only be sure that the matter of the atmosphere becoming that way naturally is impossible.
“Hey, why don’t you say something?”
Maiko asked me again.
“I don’t understand why, but there’s just no way to cultivate that atmosphere, why?”
I stated with a bit of a grumble.
But Maiko didn’t seem to care about my questioning as she once again asked me sensitive questions in a positive tone.
“Why don’t you create an atmosphere?”
“It’s not that I don’t make them, I can’t manufacture them.”
“Does she hate you?”
“Nonsense, nonsense, would any girl accept an invitation from someone she doesn’t like?”
“Yes, like I am.”
Maiko suddenly lost her smile.
“Yeah?”
Am I also loathed by Maiko?
“Idiot, of course I didn’t mean you!”
Maiko couldn’t help but laugh out loud and look at me again.
I think she probably saw through me as a person…
Why, why does she know?
However, Dancing Up side looked at my expression and continued her topic again.
“For example, the person who works as a call girl, although she also has conditions, sometimes she still can’t get rid of the constraints of the human condition, ah.”
“What constraints of favor?”
“It’s like a similar anesthetic poisoning for boys!”
“Do you date guys like that?”
“Hm…”
“What?”
“These anesthetic poisoners are just like dogs.”
“Dogs?”
“You flee and he pursues you; attack him and he flees, understand?”
“Ah!”
“Boys are like that too. There’s nothing a woman can do about a man she loathes but attack him.”
“So, still dating him?”
“Being a woman who annoys the other person is 70% success.”
“What about the other 30%?”
“It is to go into the hotel and point out his greatest weaknesses.”
“Is it…”
“Yes. If you say he’s ‘circumcised’, ‘too short’, or ‘unskilled’… etc., attacking the lower half of the man’s body is unacceptable to him…”
“┅Speak. If you don’t say it the other side can understand it!”
Maiko looked at me mischievously then laughed out loud.
“What is the reason?”
Maiko glared at me with wide eyes and snapped.
“What do you mean?”
“You should examine yourself as to why Zhi Shi didn’t respond to your invitation.”
“Maybe Zhi Shi thinks he’s still a kid!”
“Unbelievable.”
“？”
“You mean an eighteen year old girl walking through a park at night with her own boyfriend without any fantasies about sex?”
“┅Doesn’t she understand?”
“Don’t understand? Well, presumably she still doesn’t know the first thing about it?”
Maiko’s words represent that Zhi Shi is very ignorant of male-female relationships.
I felt anxious inside.
“Could it be that Zhi Shi she doesn’t want to have sex with me at all?”
Facing my anxious question, Maiko put down her cigarette for the moment.
“Eh, you don’t think so?”
“┅？”
Maiko put her cigarette out and reinforced her tone with another statement.
“I think it’s 80% that Zhi Shi thinks of you as his brother!”
“How?”
“One possibility is that she is fearful and disgusted by sex and considers it immoral…”
Maiko lit another cigarette.
“Another possibility is that she feels fear and loathing for you…”
“What did she do to me…?”
She exhaled a puff of smoke and went on.
“You can’t exactly say that. When a woman takes off her panties, it can have a negative effect on curiosity and love.”
“I read that girls will go out and have sex with boys they like for reasons they can accept.”
I was surprised by Maiko’s reaction when I published my research.
“Would you?”
“┅”
“The lady will do it for reasons she can accept? That one I don’t know. First of all, because I’m very much into sex, and while I have a crush on you, I wouldn’t want to have sex with you.”
“How do you mean…”
“Do you want to know why?”
“That’s right!”
I listened with all my attention.
If I could only understand, I might be able to cross the barrier between me and Zhi Shi. But Maiko’s words were merciless.
“Plug your ears if you don’t want to hear it.”
“Eh!”
Maiko’s gaze was aggressive, and mechanical criticism came out of her mouth.
“You have poor technique! Too young! And too anxious! All that’s on your mind is sex!!!”
“！！”
“I don’t suppose you have any experience?”
Maiko spoke of the pain in my heart.
I nodded my head feeling shocked but unable to do anything about it when I was told I had poor skills.
“Hmph!”
Maiko suddenly broke into a gentle smile.
“Is it okay to be here?”
I gave a forced smile. Anyway, as long as I can ditch my virginity, this isn’t so bad!
“So, do you need me to teach you?”
“！！”
Maiko put her hand between my thighs.
My heart beat faster and my body stiffened…
“Just kidding you!”
She said as she flicked my dick with her finger.
“Here’s a homework assignment for you. Think about why you want to have sex, and think carefully about what Knowles and I are asking. Give me the answer next Friday, okay?”
“Uh, uh…”
“Gee, you don’t have to be so nervous. The questions are simple and…”
“And what?”
“I’ll tell you the answer.”
“You know!”
I totally raise a white flag on Maiko in this regard.
Not only does she know about sex, she doesn’t seem to have any doubts about me; maybe she’s interested in me and is just afraid to show it because I already have a girlfriend.
“I’ll see you next week then!”
Maiko left me sitting alone at the bar.
The waiter and I were the only two people left in the store.
The waiter, who looked over fifty years old, smiled at me for the first time.
“This guest, you’re in trouble! But Maiko is a good girl, go for it!”
“Oh, I’ll see you next week then!”
I walked out of the bar with the residual warmth of Maiko’s hand between my legs.
“Katsuragi, I didn’t realize that you’ve been flexing your school whore boy muscles.”
Matsunaga suddenly jerked my shoulder, on the 2nd day after Maiko and I met.
“Yes, yes?”
“Don’t lie to me, Shanko told me all about it.”
“Yeah? Sang-ja?”
“The director general who approached me when the fellowship was organized.”
“Yea, what happened to you guys?”
“We’ve been in bed for a long time.”
“Woahhhh, you’re quick on your feet!”
“You don’t look in any way like someone who would immediately put on a horse in the middle of a sorority situation.”
“Well…”
“Never mind, I won’t bother with you, I had my eye on Maiko too.”
“Who the hell told this story?”
“People don’t need to be told, everyone in the sorority knows.”
“Really!”
From Matsunaga’s mouth, even my friends from college knew about it, and everyone said I was a playboy who spent the day with Chise and the night with Maiko.
However, fortunately none of my friends are good at being jealous. Although they don’t know each other very well, each of them finds it inconvenient to be with a girl, so they don’t interfere with other people’s dating situations, and we exchange information about each other’s dates.
Anyway, having 2 girlfriends isn’t a bad thing, and I’m not sure what to do next.
However, when I look around myself, I’m so annoyed I don’t know who to go after.
Whoever it is, it’s not the right one.
I admit that Zhi Shi is my girlfriend.
However, in her heart, she couldn’t help but compare Zhi Shi to Maiko.
I’ve always been fascinated by Maiko’s sex appeal, having no lovemaking affinity with Chise.
My relationship with Maiko can be described as a sibling… no, it can be described as a tangle between a mature girl and a young virgin.
I feel as if I’m the one who’s going to practice with Maiko before I take away Zhi Shi’s virginity.
The person who discovered my idea was my classmate Yayoi Shimamura.
“You, 2 girlfriends at once beware of kicking the can down the road.”
TWO GOOD GIRLS… In fact, perhaps it’s possible that I maintained my virginity well into my nineteenth year, and Yayoi Shimamura probably didn’t know that I was still a virgin! But what she said soon came true.
Of course, I didn’t have any warning at all before it happened, I was living a simple school life just as I was, taking boring classes every day.
Knowshi called to ask me to meet him, the third day after my date with Maiko.
Usually I’m the one who calls her to ask her to meet me, and it made me happy that she would ask me this time.
This time, however, we were on a Thursday night date.
Why not a date in the morning under the sun? Why did she take the initiative to ask me out?
I put on some new underwear, got my nails neatly trimmed, and dressed up this finished body to walk to my date.
I walked into the black tea store that Zhi Shi had mentioned to look for her.
“Yuichi, over here.”
Knowshi made a noise and called me.
I didn’t realize that the feeling that Zhi Shi presented today was completely different from before.
She who always wore a ponytail every time, today she let her hair down and put on a thick . Moreover, she wore earrings that she normally didn’t like to wear.
The dress was also a tight, narrow skirt suit that I hadn’t seen before.
“What’s wrong? But this suits you.”
I said without thinking.
She smiled happily.
“Great, thanks for the compliment.”
She answered me so.
I sat down in front of her and ordered an iced coffee.
”I should be able to finish today!”
At this point, my heart believes so.
“Last time I went to the park, I angered Yuichi… I’m so sorry.”
Zhi Shi said as he lowered his head to admit his mistake.
Zhi Shi, who had always shown his happiness and sadness clearly from the past to the present, began to have a complicated expression on his face…
It made me feel her face even worse than Maiko’s.
“Hey, it’s nothing, you mustn’t mind.”
I stated with a lump in my throat, not knowing how to comfort her.
“As a matter of fact, I…”
Zhi Shi’s cheeks grew red.
“When I was in the park… I… knew… what they were doing.”
“Yeah? What?”
“But, but… I…”
Zhi Shi’s cheeks reddened even more and her voice grew smaller.
However, my words muffled her voice.
“I’m sorry I was in such a hurry.”
“Yeah?”
“Such a nice girl like you, I can’t believe I took you to a place like that just for my own thoughts…”
“┅”
“If, you think I’m angry; that’s just me being angry with myself, and you’re not guilty of anything. Yes, it’s me…”
“Yuichi…”
Zhi Shi’s eye frames were wet.
She seemed to be tempting me.
“Hey, should we change places? The black tea store seems like a bad place to talk.”
“Eh!”
Hm… I see, that’s what Maiko was talking about, isn’t it?
It’s not easy to get a girl to be willing.
But! It must be tonight!
Zhi Shi has a sexual desire just like any other person.
Yes, she will definitely confess tonight.
That’s great. Ha-ha-ha.
The passion that Maiko had taught me would be applied to Zhi Shi, and after that we would probably be in a hotel somewhere… the two of us would burn… the virginity that I had maintained for nineteen years would be thrown away.
Hahaha? Ah, wait a minute!
I’m in a hurry today. My money…?
There was only… 4,000 yen in the wallet?
This, this makes so little sense!
“So, where are we going?”
“¡úWell, well… how about going to karaoke?”
“Karaoke?”
I can’t!
But Zhi Shi said it so clearly.
Is that so?
If you want to go from a virgin to a grownup, you shouldn’t pick a karaoke!
Ah, why don’t you come to my place?
I can’t. My room is full of yellow books.
What’s to be done about this?
Suddenly, I looked at Ji Se… Ah, no!
She smiled at me, hee hee hee hee…!
There’s no point in playing broad at a time like this; I just can’t forgive myself for the mistakes I’ve made.
I made up my mind (which, though simple, saddened me) to tell Knowles the truth.
“I’m sorry, Zhi Shi, I don’t have any money with me today.”
“So, so it is.”
Zhi Shi couldn’t help but laugh.
“Well, let’s go to the tourist building in Shinjuku! There are good cafes up there with a view, yo.”
Ah, Chi-Shi, why are you so gentle?
I didn’t expect to be able to get her to understand, and she made it possible for me to finally relax in a way that had been troubling me.
You can’t find a girl like that by beating your head against the wall, it’s really great!
I hurriedly followed Chise towards the top floor of the tourist building.
The tall buildings in the night breeze still reflect the afterglow of the setting sun.
The crowded office building was already empty by 7 o’clock. Zhise and I walked down the deserted street, which on closer inspection had become almost a paradise for couples.
We both held hands at some point.
Are our minds connected? Although neither of us spoke, no one was surprised or upset.
When our eyes made contact, Chise smiled at me and I responded by giving her the same smile.
The entrance to the building was through many complicated underground tunnels and circuitous elevated staircases, and the two of us managed to walk to an atrium with a small fountain.
“Jisei!”
I called out to her as Zhi Shi and I were about to walk into the entrance.
Around the atrium, a number of benches have been placed next to the fountain.
“What?”
It was pretty empty, so the sound was heard clearly.
Zhi Shi’s eyes were on me.
The corset she wore framed her breasts perfectly.
I simply stopped and held Zhi Shi in my arms.
“Ah!”
Knowshi lets out a small yelp before throwing herself into my arms.
She just let me hold her.
I didn’t realize how easy this was to do.
Even after reading more magazines and novels there is no real feeling.
I was surprised at my own boldness, and Knowles naturally obeyed my surprise.
I didn’t do much, just, hugged her shoulders and idled with the scent of her hair.
That would satisfy me.
“Yuichi…”
Knowing the world gently breaks through the silence.
“Today’s Zhi Shi is the grown up Zhi Shi. Yuuichi do you prefer the old Zhi Shi or the Zhi Shi of today.”
I suddenly realized that Zhi Shi’s eyes were glistening with tears.
“Last time in the park… I wanted to become an adult just like today. But… I’m still scared…”
“ji shi…?”
“I… I like Yuichi…”
“Yeah?”
“No!”
Zhi Shi suddenly let go of me.
“No, I can’t stand it… what should I do?”
“Jisei!”
“I’m sorry, I really can’t. I love… I love Yuichi so much…”
“Wait…”
I didn’t expect Zhi Shi to run away at a fast pace right after she said that, and I couldn’t catch her in time.
I didn’t have the courage to follow in Zhi Shi’s footsteps.
After that I was in a trance-like state.
Zhi Shi’s confession had been constantly in my ears, and I could be described as semi-distracted; I felt so bewildered that I couldn’t even listen to the lessons taught by my college teacher.
What’s wrong with her?
When my need for Zhi Shi grew stronger, Zhi Shi unexpectedly and deliberately ran away.
“What a confusing situation you two are in.”
Originally, Maiko’s words had a powerful destructive power over the warm and gentle me, but today I just don’t have the strength to say anything more to Maiko.
“Geez, don’t be so pessimistic. Didn’t she say ‘like you’?”
The real problem is that she said “like me”.
Both of us, Chise and I, liked each other, and, we both confirmed that we could have sex.
But why did she run away when she said she liked me?
I don’t know what happened.
Maiko looked at me cruelly with a gloating gaze.
What a great shame.
It’s too big a shame for me.
Maybe I’m on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
“Maiko, teach me.”
“What?”
“You tell me the reason she said ‘like me’.”
“Eh, that’s a really tough question.”
Maiko looked at me with an intentional smile.
“So, did you get my previous question answered?”
“Question?”
“Yeah. Why do you want to have sex? You try to think of me and Knowles as the other half.”
“It’s instinctive…”
“No!”
“Why?”
“You don’t count that as answering the question, because you didn’t envision both me and Knowles in your answer.”
“┅I don’t understand.”
I drained the remaining sip of whiskey from the glass.
“Another glass, please, plain.”
The waiter didn’t say anything taking away my glass to pour more wine.
“Drink too much and you’ll get a headache!”
“Head? It’s the body, isn’t it!”
“Is it the head, or the heart for you?”
“Eh.”
“Hey, did anything change in Chise when you guys last went out?”
“┅It’s not that she hasn’t changed. Her hairstyle, the feel of her clothes, the whole thing has changed.”
“What kind of changes does she make?”
“Overall it’s the clothing color, the style. Also, the hair was not tied up.”
“Uh-huh, so it is.”
“What the hell is going on?”
“Maybe she has a love counselor.”
“Counselor?”
“Does she have a new boyfriend?”
“Hey!”
I hesitantly shouted out to stop Maiko’s suspicions.
“Maybe you’re not the only one who likes her, and she’s going to change her mind!”
Maiko’s voice brought the question into dangerous territory.
“Hey! Don’t joke around. I only like Zhi Shi…”
“What did you say?”
“┅”
“I’m changing the question. If, if your Zhisei was not a virgin, would you still love her?”
“！！”
“Do you only think of Knowles as an object to abandon your virginity?”
“This is…”
No, absolutely not. But, I couldn’t say it. Because, it wasn’t that I didn’t have the idea of giving my virginity to Zhi Shi; moreover, there seemed to be that little bit of realization present in me.
“You’re really two-faced in your thinking.”
“Both sides?”
“One is that you’re really over-glorifying Zhi Shi’s image. You don’t want to admit that ┅Ji Se is an ordinary girl like me.”
“┅”
“The second is that you only think of Zhisei as an object of sexual desire. It’s obvious from the fact that you’re very conscious of virginity and virginity.”
“You…”
“I suppose you yourself would be too confused to endure these contradictory thoughts, by and large!”
“Is this all my fault?”
“You better think so.”
“Okay! What else should I do?”
Unexpectedly, I finished my third glass of whiskey.
Then Maiko leaned her hand on my shoulder.
“But thinking like that will get you in more trouble ooh.”
“Yeah?”
Maiko took her own glass to her mouth and continued again.
“You and your Knowing World are simple, which is rare.”
“┅？”
“Ha, don’t you understand what I mean?”
“Don’t you understand, don’t you simply?”
“At least I don’t have any hope for sex anymore.”
The maiko afterward spoke really rakishly.
“The fact that Zhi Shi would wear grown-up clothes and jewelry again is a sign of sexual innuendo to you. But that mentality is complicated.”
“Yes?”
“I suppose so; you must have praised the change of Zhisei at that time!”
“Well, I think it’s good!”
“She shouldn’t be upset at being praised!”
“You could say that.”
“However, after your praise, she may misunderstand your preferences. At the very least, she will begin to think that you prefer the current her to the previous one.”
“Eh!”
“So, why did Zhi Shi make sexual advances to you again?”
Maiko asked me with a teasing smile.
“It’s not like she really wants to have sex with me…”
“Yeah, she didn’t really want to have sex with you. She was feeling uneasy.”
“Disturbed?”
“Yeah, probably about being loved or not!”
“That… she didn’t tell me…”
“Maybe she kind of got it and therefore wanted to make sure!”
“Why?”
“Because you didn’t make a strong statement and you fully demonstrated your desire to be disgruntled.”
“┅”
“Maybe you simply liked her at first. But your mind changed halfway through.”
“Change, I didn’t change!”
“No, you’ve changed. Do you remember when you fell in love for the sake of falling in love?”
“Who was the subject then?”
“It wasn’t Jisae. It was so long ago… the object was… I don’t remember. At that time, I thought anyone would do.
”
“Yeah whoo!”
“Yeah?”
“Knowshi probably thinks he’s your ‘whoever it is’ date!”
“Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â You mean…”
“Yeah, do you really want to go out with her? Or are you just trying to determine your sexuality?”
“Really…”
There was darkness before my eyes.
Did I really, as Maiko had said, somehow change my thoughts about Zhi Shi from how to get pleasure together to how to make libido free?
“Girls have sex drives too.”
“┅Hmmm, I know that one…”
“But everyone has pride, especially virgins.”
“？”
“When a virgin knows that the other person just wants her body, the woman’s sexual desire is replaced by a level of wounded pride… do you understand?”
“I don’t understand…”
Maiko giggled.
“It’s no wonder that even I don’t understand it.”
“How does that work?”
“While I’m explaining, I’m also thinking… let me think… in short…”
“Does that mean you can’t do it without touching your body?”
“Yeah?”
“Does it mean that you can’t touch someone’s body even though you obviously like her?”
“That’s not how it works.”
“And what do you mean by that?”
“Wait, wait a minute. Ah, I’ve got it, I guess you could say that!”
“Yeah?”
“What would you do if, if you had sex with her afterward?”
“Huh?”
“Since you like her and you’re in love with her, so you have sex, what about later?”
“┅”
“You didn’t think about it!”
“¡®In fact¡¯”
“Once you make love, naturally something changes, right?”
“I suppose so?”
“You, hmmmmmmm, you boys only think about having sex, and very few of you will think about what happens afterward.
”
“Ouch…”
Maiko finished in one breath, and I didn’t even have a chance to retort.
I didn’t come up with any reason to agree with her, I just listened to her part of the story.
“Girls probably think about other things first, it’s an instinct.”
“Instinct?”
“Yeah. For example, your Zhisei, what she’s afraid of is what she’ll have to face after having sex with you.”
“How, how?”
“Actually, I think sex is just a process, but a lot of guys think of it as a final goal. However, you fall into that category.”
“I have no such intention…”
“But why do you feel the restlessness of the Zhi Shi?”
I, I’ve run out of things to say.
“She probably senses that you’re expecting too much from her body.”
“Yeah?”
“Even having sex won’t change anything. At least, no one would know when walking down the street, which is something she understands very well, Zhi Shi.”
“Even I…”
“Don’t be sophomoric, you just said it, you think something will change.”
“┅”
“Anyway, you should hug the girls, and you’ll realize that some things have changed since every other day. Right now what you need most is to hug the girls, not to rush to put Zhi Shi.”
Maiko’s voice trailed off at the end as if she was speaking to herself.
Maiko wasn’t sure if she was too happy about what she said, but she drained the glass in one gulp.
She placed the glass on the counter, and the sound of kala… fast-dissolving ice appeared in the glass.
“You…”
“Yeah?”
“Can’t I put you?”
I don’t know why I said that.
I didn’t look at Maiko’s face, I just stared at the glass.
It’s an unbearable silence… But silence also has its own purpose.
I think Maiko was thinking about me.
I don’t have much self-confidence, so I can’t imagine Maiko agreeing to go out with me. But it’s at least my honest opinion.
“┅No.”
Maiko uttered a refusal.
“Yes…”
I find it unbelievable that thoughts of being abandoned or hated keep coming back to me.
“I’m sorry, but even though it’s not anything important, I can’t promise you. I…”
Maiko laughed feebly.
The muscles in my face also felt slightly loose.
“If you were abandoned by Zhi Shi… hmmm, probably not. Someone like you shouldn’t.”
“Yes?”
“I guess not.”
“┅Thank you!”
It’s all because of Maiko that I can see myself again.
When I picked up my watch and looked at it, I was surprised that it was already past two o’clock.
“I didn’t realize how fast the time went by, I’ll take you back.”
I said that to Maiko and tried to pull her away.
“No, I’ll go back by myself.”
Maiko replied.
“No, at least I’ll give you a ride to the station!”
“！？”
My forceful tone caused a momentary look of surprise to appear on Maiko’s face.
She smiled helplessly.
“Thank you. Bye, boss.”
“Thanks for coming!”
Maiko and I walked out of the bar together as the owner thanked us.
To get to the station, you have to pass through a street lined with hotels.
Originally, I wanted to call a cab here.
It was in the night breeze that I realized I was drunk.
I walked with a lurching limp.
Although I was conscious, the view of the street, the neon lights of the hotel; and the voice of the maiko next to me all sounded and felt distant.
We talked about boring things and propped each other up as we walked down Hotel Street.
At that moment, Maiko suddenly stopped in her tracks.
“Hmmm~”
Because a couple appeared directly across from us.
‘！’
I don’t know if it was the heat from the alcohol or the surprise of what was in front of me, but my whole body heated up rapidly and my spirit was lifted.
She’s uniformly well-built.
Beautiful skin like snow.
Big clear eyes.
And the big ponytail she put up.
The girl was Jisae.
Across the room, she seemed to notice me as well.
She put her hand in front of her mouth to show her surprise.
Time is terminated.
No, it’s me who feels as if time has slowed down.
Zhi Shi and I gazed at each other, the other’s silhouette appearing in both of our eye frames.
I think it was probably Knowles who moved first!
As we brushed shoulders, I could clearly sense hostility on both sides.
Chise’s eyes moved from me to Maiko.
But nothing else has happened since.
The scene was like a Wild West hero movie; or a pantomime in a modern play, and we were surprisingly quiet as we brushed past each other.
In this moment; tens of thousands of memories of what I wanted to say, anger and disbelief, and mixed emotions flashed through my thoughts.
It all disappeared before we entered the hotel.
