Chapter 3 Sparks
Up until fifteen seconds ago, I was still reeling from the images of the encounter I had just had.
Perhaps it is possible that this is the beginning of a nightmare.
The place that Zhi Shi and the other man were going into was the same place that Maiko and I were going to walk out of.
There is no room for defense.
I didn’t, and neither did Maiko.
Maybe that’s how it all works!
A chill rose from the bottom of my heart.
Weakness, powerlessness, coldness… all came to me
Why on earth am I feeling troubled?
“Whew!”
My sensibility and rationality warred in my mind as to what the situation was.
Why did a small smile appear at the corner of Maiko’s mouth?
Maiko’s laugh seemed to mock us.
Just as well, try to laugh if you have to!
A joke like that is rarely touched, at least!
When I think that and look back at Maiko, she smiles while facing me with an expressionless face, then she takes my hand.
“I… I…”
I was about to speak when Maiko beat me to the punch by whispering a question.
“I’m sorry, I’m drunk, do you want to find a place to rest?”
“Yea…?”
“Don’t ever let the girls give you a hard time, hurry up and find a place!”
Maiko took my hand compulsively.
I froze in the face of her sudden invitation, while Maiko’s face expression was a bit off.
Which is true, her compulsive speech or the previous topic?
What exactly is new with Maiko?
“Well, let’s go inside!”
The waves in my heart still haven’t calmed down since my coincidental encounter with Zhi Shi just now.
Without saying a word, I took Maiko into the hotel in front of me.
Maiko lowered her head and followed me in silence.
She seemed to be desperately trying to repress her feelings, such a stance was a far cry from the always pleasant and well-spoken Maiko; as if she were a kitten caught, with no other way to think about it but to comply with the one who caught him.
Entering a hotel of love for the first time… I should have been heart-breaking and overjoyed; but now I was in a state of confusion and surprise.
In the lobby of the hotel, there was a chart showing the room decorations and prices, and no one was in front of or behind the counter.
Confused, Maiko and I gazed at each other.
The room with the light on in the introductory picture was empty and there were only 2 rooms left when we came in.
“I’m sorry…”
I was about to call someone towards the guard room behind the counter when Maiko held out her hand to stop me.
“Press down from here and the key comes out.”
She whispered and pressed the button.
The key literally popped out with a kaboom.
“4th floor?”
“Yes!”
We got on the elevator after we were sure.
The room was smaller than I expected.
The room, which appeared larger than this one on the map, actually had a bed that took up most of the space, and although it had a small refrigerator and an electric table, it was no different from a business hotel.
I helped Maiko sit down on the couch and sat myself on the edge of the bed.
“Are you okay? I haven’t seen you this drunk…”
I didn’t know I could talk to Maiko calmly.
Seeing Ji Seok like that, I should have been the one who was devastated…
“You’re quite gentle!”
Maiko floated a smile and wore a strange expression.
But why do I see the sadness in her eyes?
“Wasn’t that girl Zhi Shi just now?”
Maiko inquired in a whisper.
“Uh, yeah!”
“She’s so cute looking.”
“Yeah? Hmm, I think so.”
“┅”
Maiko, however, reluctantly tried to squeeze out a smile this time.
“What’s wrong? It’s weird, isn’t it!”
Why did I forget that this was my own business?
Maiko must think I look ridiculous!
“Come over here.”
Maiko suddenly glared at me with a stern look.
“Yeah?”
“Come over here next to me.”
I hesitated, then walked over to Maiko’s side and sat down.
Suddenly, Maiko hugged me.
“Wait, wait…!”
The back of Maiko’s head, which was buried in my chest, vibrated slightly.
“I’m sorry, no, I…”
“Maiko!”
“One moment…”
Maiko didn’t raise her head as she murmured in a tiny voice.
The faint light cast over Maiko’s shoulders.
In this slight green light, Maiko’s shoulders looked smaller and slimmer than I expected.
Maiko’s breath seemed to be able to get inside my body.
We both maintained this position for a long time.
Until I heard Maiko’s sobs… the air remained still.
After about ten minutes, Maiko finally calmed down, and she walked over to her bed alone to lie down and sleep.
“Sorry!”
She said so, and then unexpectedly looked at me with an expression as if nothing had happened.
“Uh, uh… I wonder why you’re irritated?”
It was a strange question, but I knew I couldn’t do without it.
However, I got an unexpected answer.
“The man who was with Jisae… was my former boyfriend.”
Maiko’s gaze grew dark, and her voice trailed off.
“Yeah? Do…”
“Did you see it or not?”
For a split second, my mind went back to the image from earlier.
However, all I could recall was Zhi Shi’s blank face, and I had absolutely no recollection of the boy she was walking with.
“No, I only remember Zhi Shi…”
“Hm…”
Maiko continued to make self-deprecating comments.
“We’re both abandoned.”
“I guess that’s just the way it is?”
I pulled the curtains back a little and peered out into the mold.
The neon lights were almost gone from the street, and the two of them had probably disappeared into the darkness.
“I’m going to take a shower.”
After Maiko finished speaking she walked to the bathroom alone.
Is this to tempt me… or is it a warning not to peek? I was silent as I continued to look out.
The sound of clothes rubbing together coming from the bathroom was loud in the silent room.
Maiko is probably undressing!
I pulled the curtains closed and peered inside.
You can see the inside of the bathroom from the outside.
I think this glass door is probably what’s called a magic door.
Maiko didn’t notice that I was watching as she took off her skirt straight away, revealing that she was wearing only her panties.
What I could see of her body from the outside, from her breasts to her ass, every part of it was very nice.
However, if I can be satisfied by just watching, then it’s a real tragedy for our current situation.
Maiko picked up the stocking in her hands and took it off in one breath.
Although she wasn’t tall, her legs were thin and long, and she felt very well-proportioned overall. The next thing that was revealed was the open high-cut panties.
I had forgotten if I had made a sound.
This situation does not make me happy, but I am very eager to see it.
I looked at Maiko’s body without expression.
The flirtatiousness of a mature woman had appeared on Maiko’s face, but she was still very intimidating in my eyes.
She twisted the faucet with her hand.
I was surprised at how bouncy her boobs were, they looked almost like they were going to fly off.
There was a slight mist on the glass, but her body was still clearly visible.
Finally she took off her panties and all that was left was a naked body.
The jungle of her private parts was so thick and dark that I could see it clearly too.
I suddenly realized that something on my body was slowly hardening.
That’s important stuff.
Naturally after the chance encounter with Zhi Shi just now, my body went from receiving stimulation to becoming numb; however, this current condition seems to be caused by the lower half of my body asserting itself.
Soon, I heard the sound of a shower as Maiko began to rinse her body with water.
Once the hot water touched the skin, it went down in drops.
Maiko, who had just started flushing her chest with water, soon rinsed the rosette close to the important parts.
She probably didn’t realize I was watching her, did she? She boldly spread her legs to let the water rinse between her twat.
A bad thought came into my head.
‘She’s tempting me, get in there and wash together!’
But I didn’t have that kind of courage, and I threw my heavy body on the bed and watched every move in the bathroom with my eyes.
Soon she finished her shower and stepped out in the bathrobe the hotel had prepared.
“It’s a wonder you didn’t come over and peek.”
Her expression suddenly froze as she smiled and spoke.
The bathroom light hadn’t been turned off yet, and she realized that the original door was a magic glass door.
“Ai… you still saw it.”
“Eh, I see it.”
“Why don’t you tell me.”
“You were already undressed when I found out. I couldn’t tell.”
Maiko’s face suddenly moved closer to me.
“Lustful…”
When she finished she pointed her finger at my forehead.
“Say!”
“It’s beautiful!”
As I spoke, she walked to the refrigerator to get out her beer.
“Do you want a drink too?”
“┅No, I can’t do it once I drink it.”
“Yes…”
She picked up the glass and poured half of the beer, then gave me the glass and took a sip from the can herself.
“Drinking like this will be fine. It’s just too boring if I drink it alone.”
“┅Yes?”
I said as I gazed at Maiko.
The pink bathrobe looked like something cheap, but the breasts and buttocks on her body looked very attractive.
“Hey, can I ask you?”
Maiko grinned mischievously.
“What?”
“How are you feeling right now?”
“Mood…?”
“The mood that you went into a hotel with another girl on the same day that Chise was with someone else!”
“┅”
Her voice was cold. It was the first time I had ever heard her sound like that.
Maiko has been my teacher from before until now.
The questions she asks, and she prepares the answers herself.
However, with today’s question, I got the feeling that she just wanted to ask a question.
Teachers ask questions that have no answers.
It was a shaking that Maiko couldn’t hide.
“┅We’d better take a nap, I’ll sleep on this couch.”
I pushed Maiko to her bed.
A split second later, Maiko whipped out a slap with her hand.
“This…”
“Sorry!”
Although Maiko was apologizing under her breath, she looked at me with a fierce gaze.
Soon, tears suddenly welled up in the frames of her eyes.
“I’m sorry… I know… but it can’t be done.”
“Maiko…”
I don’t know what I’m supposed to do when I’m faced with her shaking shoulders.
“I don’t know if I’m qualified to speak, but you mustn’t belittle yourself. I’ve never thought of you as ‘another girl’, Maiko is Maiko, and therefore…”
“Uh, thanks!”
Maiko flashed a smile.
It wasn’t the forced smile from before, but a natural one.
“He… that man’s name is Sanada, and he’s currently an employee of a leading corporation…”
After a short break, Maiko slowly recounted things again.
“He’s part of the band, too, and he’s a good-looking guy.”
“Is it…?”
“He used to date many girls. However, he is a very serious person… definitely not someone who would have two feet in the same boat.”
“But he just…”
That man was dating both Maiko and Jisae at the same time
But I swallow that back down.
“I used to date a lot of guys before, so I distrusted men very much. He used to support me like that.”
“Whoo!”
Maiko doesn’t trust boys.
It was a topic that took me by surprise, so I didn’t make a sound and continued to listen to her.
“I was able to get back on my feet thanks to him.”
“Then why did you guys break up.”
“Probably… it was me who went against him. From 2 months ago the phone calls also decreased, the dates also decreased… although I slowly realized it later…”
“┅”
“He told me about that bar too. I was influenced by him in the way I dressed, the way I wore my hair, even the way I thought.
Most of what I tell you I learned from him…”
“Why? Why is that?”
“Probably, when I met you I thought that you two were very much alike… I, I found him in you.
”
“┅”
“That kind of contradicts what I told you, doesn’t it. Haven’t I often wished you wouldn’t see girls as objects?”
“┅I don’t see girls as objects!”
“You’re nice… but I don’t like this relationship.”
“No?”
Maiko didn’t say anything as she raised her arms around my neck.
“Kiss me!”
Without realizing it, her yukata slipped down and her breasts were bare as she murmured for me to kiss her.
I hugged Maiko with all my strength.
My heart seems to be beating too fast.
I leaned my heart against Maiko’s chest and conveyed the tenderness of my body to her. Maiko is still a young girl, and she also seems to want to get rid of her uneasiness and show her anticipatory mood, so she holds me tightly.
What a long kiss… Maiko’s tongue kept stimulating the inside of my teeth.
She kissed me as she slowly helped me out of my jeans again.
I didn’t make any noise because I realized I couldn’t seem to make any noise right now.
I just gave my body completely to Maiko.
Maiko pulled the belt out of my jeans.
Chomp!
Such a marvelous sound that the pressure in my abdomen disappeared completely.
Soon, my body became free, revealing that I was wearing panties while the thing was semi-erect.
Maiko had no qualms about, no, I should say I was in a waiting stance; she slowly traversed her fingers through her pants to catch my doppelganger.
“！！”
She gently held the parting and slowly stroked it with her fingers.
That’s when I noticed the thing getting harder.
“Hmph!”
Maiko gave a smug laugh, then she gazed at me.
Although I felt the sadness in her gaze; I felt her strong will as well, and I felt as if all the energy in my body was going to be sucked out of me, and I lost my strength.
Maiko’s hand just caught my panties.
“Raise your waist…”
She said so, and I did what she said.
Maiko slowly pulled her panties off and down between her thighs.
That thing of mine, it had gotten tight.
She grabbed my dick with both hands and then pushed my upper body down on the bed.
Soon a warm air appeared between my strands.
“！？”
“Is that good?”
Followed by a chirping sound, my lower half was getting hot.
“Choo, choo, pah-choo…
Having no previous sexual experience, I didn’t realize how experienced Maiko was until this moment. With her strong and weak rubbing, as well as her sucking, I gradually felt the stimulating sensation, and my rationality disappeared with it.
Half-sitting down, I silently run my hands over Maiko’s breasts.
“？”
“In the opposite direction?…”
I slowly change direction to get Maiko to lie down.
“┅Lay down!”
I made a small noise urging Maiko on.
I removed the robe belt around Maiko’s waist and removed the robe.
Her breasts were perfectly shaped and jiggled up and down constantly.
I read in magazines about “techniques to get her excited” that didn’t even work.
I just instinctively ran my tongue over her breasts.
“Ah, uh-huh.”
Maiko’s mouth made a sound of receiving stimulation.
I gagged her with kisses.
“Uh…”
Maiko seemed to suck on my mouth in pain.
I maintain this position and run my fingers over Maiko’s breasts and between her thighs.
“Ahhhh, Yuichi!”
A petal-like shape emerged from the center of Maiko’s panties.
However, at this point I was hesitant not knowing whether to take her panties off or not.
I had no choice but to caress Maiko’s back.
“Ah, no!”
Maiko began to scream loudly in confusion.
“Please…”
She said as she lifted her waist up.
I’m still not sure what she means at this point.
Since I didn’t know, I had to keep indulging in sucking her nipples.
By this time, it seemed as if her nipples were already different from what they had been a moment ago, while gradually becoming hotter and harder.
“You… you know what? I, I need you.”
Maiko gasped as she explained her need.
Soon, Maiko slipped her hand into her panties as she began to look for excitement.
“Look, it’s like this!”
Maiko held her wet fingers out in front of me to show me.
“Here, use your hands!”
Maiko grabbed my hand and guided it to her body.
Starting with the thick private hairs, my hand gradually came into contact with the complex and high and low walls of flesh.
Maiko closed her eyes, and was talking with a smile on her face again.
“Look, this is my stamen, you have to touch it gently…”
Gooze!
Warm love juices kept pouring out.
“Ah!”
Maiko frowned.
I think she must have known she was wet down there.
I finally couldn’t help myself, and in one breath, I pulled Maiko’s panties down between my thighs before inserting my fingers into the center of the petals that were exposed to the light’s illumination.
“Awwww!”
Maiko’s body jumped out from among my wrists.
‘It’s hot!’
Through the tugging of Maiko’s hands, my fingers also felt the warmth emanating from within her body.
Until this moment, I found myself blazing like I was in a furnace of molten iron.
Maiko supported her body upside down with her head and knees, and spread her legs wide, waiting for my caresses.
I pumped the finger that was in there back and forth.
Cooze… Cooze… Cooze!
Maiko’s love juices continued to flow out from between her twat and made a sound that I couldn’t describe.
“Oh, I’m so sorry…”
Maiko’s cheeks were already all red.
However, since she was in a half-lying position, she was supported by her knees, and her waist moved in and out with my fingers as she began to rhythmically move back and forth.
“Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha… ah… ah-ha-ha-ha!”
The corners of Maiko’s mouth seemed to be on the verge of drooling as she kept pleading.
That thing of mine, from just now until now is gradually getting hard again.
“I’ll help you take off your pants.”
After Maiko finished speaking, she switched the direction of her body to a position where she was on top, and she knelt down next to my waist and pulled down my half-removed pants for me.
With a hissing sound from the clothes, the restraints left on the body all but disappeared.
Overwhelmed by Maiko, I don’t know how to break through the current barrier.
“Maiko… I, I!”
My bewilderment must have seemed funny to Maiko’s eyes, and I was about to put on my pants when Maiko took hold of that important thing again.
Soon, the panties were finally removed in their entirety, and all of my lower half was exposed.
“Yuichi…”
Maiko tenderly kissed my dick.
It’s at the limit.
“Aaah… Oooooh!”
Knock knock knock.
A breath of cum shot out, wetting Maiko’s palms and wrists.
“Awesome!”
Maiko used her mouth to lick the cum that landed on me and on her.
Though I knew she was licking, I no longer had the strength to pay attention to her, and I didn’t even know when I fell asleep.
What is Knowles doing now, exactly?
When Chise sees me with Maiko, she’s bound to misunderstand us; and Sanada, who’s with her, doesn’t have any shaky heart despite seeing Maiko. He still took Chise to the bar we had been to before.
“The one who just brushed past was Yuuichi, right?”
Sanada inquired of Zhi Shi, whose body was stiffening.
Zhi Shi lowered his head in affirmative yes.
Sanada burst out laughing.
“Hahaha… yes… how could this happen?”
“Yeah?”
When Sanada said that, Chise looked up with an incredulous look.
“I finally realize why Yuuichi has become so strange lately.”
“You mean because he’s seeing someone else?”
Zhi Shi inquired as his eye frames filled with tears.
“No, no… how can I say this? How can I explain this to you?… It’s probably because he wants to change on his own… It’s just like your situation.”
“The same as me…?”
“Yeah. Look, didn’t you wear the dress I picked out on your last date with him?”
“Eh!”
She replied, her eye frames becoming moist again once more.
“But that day Yuichi’s focus was not on me, but on the clothes I was wearing…”
“Hahaha, it can’t be helped. It’s usually a male instinct, so just forgive him!”
“But…”
Facing an unsatisfied Zhi Shi, Sanada slowly opened his mouth to explain again.
“Then why did you wear that dress that day?”
“¡Because… I want Yuichi to look at me seriously.”
“So you think that by wearing that dress, Yuuichi will look at you lo.”
“How…”
“He probably thought that was your sexual innuendo!”
“No! That’s not what happened…”
“Aiya, don’t be embarrassed, it’s not a bad thing after all!”
Sanada guffawed.
“When a person is supposed to be better yesterday than today, and better tomorrow than today, in order to live a beautiful life.”
“Yeah?”
“I guess you are looking for your new and beautiful self too!”
“Yuichi too?”
“It’s the nature of being human, isn’t it!”
“Yeah?”
“Being a man doesn’t make you want to be good-looking only.”
“Yes?”
“Of course. Any normal, ordinary man would want to pursue knowledge, self-confidence, and also gentleness… they want more than what a girl wants.”
“So…”
Knowshi puffed out his cheeks.
“What’s going on?”
“Nothing.”
“Hahaha… are you trying to say that costumes are different from girls?”
“Yeah?”
Chise is surprised that his mind is guessed by Sanada.
“I’ve said it before ah, he wanted to hug you very much but was rejected by you. He probably misunderstood you and was afraid to make a move. It must have bothered him and he kept thinking and thinking that there was a misunderstanding between you and that’s what happened.”
“┅”
“I think you’ll accept my offer probably because you find an aura in me that Yuichi doesn’t have?
”
“┅”
“That’s because I’ve lived a few decades longer than you guys, so I can understand how you feel & how he feels.”
“Is that the point?”
The only reason why Chise knew Sanada was because a friend from Chise’s part-time job invited Chise to see Sanada’s band perform.
Since that group of people were fascinated by the orchestra’s performances, they invited Zhi Shi when they attended the orchestra’s events.
When they first attended a fan club, the fresh and distinguished Chisei was noticed by Sanada.
“Who is she? She looks familiar… Oh? It must be the first time we’ve met. Whose friend is she?”
“She, she, she’s a friend of the guitarist Sato’s…”
“Ah, did Mei bring it?”
“Yes, I am.”
“First time at an event like this?”
“Yes, yes!”
“Think it’s funny?”
“It was great, really great.”
Right after their conversation, Chise seemed to be attracted to Sanada. To Zhi Shi she doesn’t seem to want to betray me (at least I think so).
And Sanada is attracted to Knowles solely because he has a girlfriend and he’s full of the knowledge of a mature man.
For me Maiko was my guide to love… and for Chise, Sanada seemed to be the one she talked to.
The biggest worry of Kisei would be me!
Although we went out on many dates, as our relationship never progressed… Zhisei was always troubled by such a relationship.
The reason she had dressed like that on her last date was entirely the result of Sanada’s guidance.
“Don’t you worry so much.”
“Yeah?”
Sanada suddenly resumed the conversation.
“Did you get a good look at the girl you were just with your boyfriend?”
“Eh, she’s a completely different type from me… she looks very mature…”
“Think she’s a good girl?”
“Eh!”
“Her name is Maiko.”
“Yeah? Is that Sanada’s girlfriend?”
“Yes, she’s my girlfriend.”
“Yeah yeah yeah!”
“It’s amazing that this is happening in the world.”
Sanada said the words to express his surprise one more time, then hiccupped a laugh.
“Do… I really… not have to worry?”
Knowshi inquired shyly.
“Really! I’d love to tell the truth, you’d be worried.”
“！？”
“However, I trust Maiko’s… how do I put it.”
Sanada said softly, which made Zhi Shi feel strange.
“Deception! Why? Would you trust her under these circumstances?”
Zhi Shi asked Sanada in an agitated tone.
For Chise (and for me too), who can trust each other in this situation?
However, Sanada continued to guffaw again.
“Maybe I’m ignoring Maiko.”
“Would you even believe her if she went into a hotel with another man?”
“You can’t say that, I think she’s going to come back to me in the end.”
“┅！？”
“I was thinking that the two of them should have been in this store a while ago!”
“！？”
“Here, I introduced Maiko to this store.”
“┅”
“Hey, let’s get back to what we were talking about!”
“Yes… but…”
“Have you been too confused to think of anything?”
“Uh-huh!”
“You’re so young, I’m so envious!”
“Yeah?”
“Hm… but, speaking of his mood.”
“┅”
“Let me start with the conclusion, I think he should only have you in mind!”
“How so?”
“No matter what you wear, he likes you for who you are.”
“Is that so?”
“I suppose so. But you and he both think too much don’t you?”
“What does that say?”
“┅ Sex!”
Zhi Shi blushed and lowered his head in embarrassment.
“Scared?”
“Yeah?”
“Sex!”
“No… it will!”
Sanada lit his cigarette on fire.
“Well, why don’t you do it with him?”
“But… this kind of thing…”
“Don’t like sex? Or think it’s too fast?”
“┅No!”
“It’s scary for anyone at first, but how will you know if you don’t go for it?”
“¡But, I…”
“Maybe you’re afraid of not knowing if he’ll like your body?”
“Once we have sex, I’m afraid he’ll leave me…”
“But it’s possible.”
“Yeah?”
“There are a lot of guys who are having sex as a last resort.”
“┅”
“Sometimes girls should be responsible for this kind of thing.”
“Yeah… I didn’t even know that.”
“But it doesn’t help that you’re inexperienced.”
“┅”
“I guess if it’s Yuuichi you can rest assured.”
“Why?”
“Because of Maiko!”
“！？”
Sanada exhaled a deep breath of purple smoke as he drained his glass of neat whiskey.
“The guy Maiko is interested in will never be a generalist.”
“You’re so confident.”
Although Chise was complimenting the relationship between Maiko and Sanada, she was more or less tinged with jealousy. However, the words that followed were very much to the point.
“Maiko… can the boys she trusts escape her?”
“！！”
Sanada narrowed his eyes and began to tell the past.
In her high school years, Maiko dated a boy who was a year older than her.
Maiko is a lively girl who often participates in the activities of the duo, and she can be said to be the talk of the school. The boyfriend she is dating is a felon, in fact he doesn’t go to cram school and is a fun-loving and unmotivated punk.
Maiko has this boyfriend for no apparent reason, and her boyfriend often makes new girlfriends, and Maiko probably stays with him because she has a vision of him.
On the surface, Maiko is a lively girl who has something to say to anyone, but in fact she is a person who treats people with sincerity but chooses the good and is stubborn.
The reason why Maiko’s boyfriend was going out with her was purely for the ultimate goal of boys… mostly to have sex with girls and then share the experience with their best friends…
If Maiko had continued her relationship with that man, she would have lost her virginity long ago; at this point, she was living like a wandering soul in a drunken life, thanks to Sanada’s help.
Maiko evolves from male phobia to autism, and it is Sanada who supports her.
Maiko had a period of time where Makeda was missing from her life and relationship.
‘Simply put, I did all this to myself.’
I don’t know why, but Sanada suddenly thought so
However, Sanada will never be willing to give up; he will persevere to the end and try to guard Maiko’s world.
“Why are you so obsessed too?”
Chise asked Sanada as he suppressed his inner emotion.
“Yeah?”
“Because…”
“Ask me why? I’m not sure myself. It’s a fact that I’m interested in maiko, and it’s also a fact that I enjoy helping troubled people…”
“Yes? Would that be a burden to Maiko?”
“Will?”
“For a girl, she doesn’t really like it when someone else trifles with her love, does she? If you’re more gentle with her, the more it’s actually a form of torture.”
“So I had sex with her.”
“Yeah?”
“I was Maiko’s first man.”
“Really?”
“But, at that time, I was still dating other girls, and Maiko was ultimately the one I talked to, simply put that felt like a younger sister.”
“So…”
There was a tone of protest in Chise’s voice as Sanada continued again.
“At first I kept telling myself that I mustn’t fall any further into it, that maybe the relationship was only to express my sexuality. But after a while it was a natural thing for us.”
“┅？”
“Then Maiko changed. How can I put it? She became strong.”
“Tough?”
“She probably wouldn’t admit it herself!”
Sanada took out his cigarettes and lit them again.
“I don’t know. I get weak when it comes to sex.”
“Do you think so too? How do I put it?… Don’t both people become powerless when they have sex.”
Sanada laughed out loud as Knowles had no idea what he was talking about.
“We digress. Anyway, as long as it’s a man Maiko has her eye on, she can treat him as a friend, a lover, and be in a relationship with him… or she’s groping the boy.”
“Is it really… is it?”
Knowshi inquired feebly.
“Jisei!”
Sanada patted her on the shoulder.
“Whatever the relationship between Maiko and your boyfriend turns out to be, you must believe that maybe the person who cares more about the sexual relationship is you and not him.”
“Yes!”
“You need to stop thinking so much and contradicting yourself, sex isn’t that complicated.”
“┅I know.”
“Oops…”
Sanada looked at his watch.
“It’s twelve o’clock, we’d better go home!”
“Yeah, it’s getting late.”
“I’ll walk you to a cab!”
“Yeah?”
“I can’t take you home without you thinking too much, can I?”
“Sanada, you really know how to make fun of me.”
“Well, let’s go!”
“Yes!”
Chapter 4: Pure Love
Thinking about it later that was a cold night.
Without even a sudden burst of atmosphere in front of Maiko, who I cared about the most, it all ended halfway.
After the passion, I don’t know whether I was helped by the God of Sandman or disturbed by the devil, after enjoying the shock, Maiko looked at my sleeping face, what did she really feel?
When I woke up, Maiko was already dressed.
“Are you awake? Want some coffee or something?”
Once we had both finished our triple instant coffee, we walked out of the hotel to part ways.
“Let’s not meet for a while!”
Maiko, who had a completely different attitude from yesterday, said to me in a cold tone.
Up until yesterday, I took her words at face value.
However, today she was very assertive and I knew she was faking it.
The question is whether or not what she said was a façade, or whether she had already made up her mind.
“Don’t worry, you and her will get better.”
Maiko said with a smile.
“And it will be happier than with me.”
I nodded without thinking.
It all turned out to be a momentary fling, and in the end there was nothing.
Maiko did make me feel close, though.
Finally, she said something else that surprised me.
“Don’t forget to call me if things really don’t work out with Knowles, I really like you.”
I returned to my house with an unspeakably mixed feeling.
After that night, Zhi Shi and I didn’t talk on the phone for two weeks.
Partly I was embarrassed, partly I was afraid to call.
What scares me is not knowing how to face my unfaithfulness and not knowing how to validate her change of heart.
I may not be able to contain my panic…
But, not to mention Maiko, I just couldn’t stand the thought of not seeing Tomo’s face for 2 weeks, I’m not as strong as I thought I was.
I gripped the phone receiver with sweaty palms.
“I really like you.”
I stopped thinking about the look on Maiko’s face and her words when I separated from her.
In short, you can’t move forward without calling everything.
I can’t run away from my feelings anymore.
Dum-dum-dum-dum… chow-chow!
My heart clenched into a ball.
“This is the Shiina Public House.”
It was Ji Seok’s voice. But my throat was too parched to speak… “I… I…”
“Ah, you’re Yuichi. Yuichi!”
Knowles’ call was surprisingly loud to me.
I don’t know how she’s going to react, and the rapid beating of my heart seems to be stopping.
“Why haven’t you even called me.”
“Yes… I’m sorry, I’m… too busy…”
I made up a lie out of the blue.
“But I’m having a hard time making time. Are you free the Saturday after tomorrow?”
“Eh, free free free, I’m always free.”
“Yes, yes?”
“So where do we meet?”
“How about Sakuragi Station? Let’s go swimming together, okay?”
“Yay! So colorful! But it’s good yay. It’s hot right now.”
“Then we’ll meet at the ticket gate at ten.”
“Uh, don’t be late!”
“Of course! I’ll never be late.”
“Well, goodbye.”
I really don’t understand what’s going on here.
As if she didn’t know what had happened that day, Ji Se was still… going out with me as usual.
I’m sure she saw me then.
Perhaps she was pretending that it didn’t happen?
Or, is she already with Maiko’s boyfriend… Today, she just came to show me her feelings.
But it’s useless for me to worry about this or that.
I’m going to have a go at him today.
I ended up asking myself.
“Do I really love Shiina Chise?”
The answer is… yes.
The day of the date had finally arrived.
I couldn’t sleep since the day before, so I arrived thirty minutes earlier than my appointment time, and I waited for Zhi Shi at Sakuragi Station.
“What’s it going to be now?”
I can’t find anyone to talk to.
Finally, it occurred to me that there wasn’t a bubble tea place across the street from the station.
I hunted for a spot in the store where I could see the station’s ticket counter, and I sat there waiting for Zhi Shi.
It was a beautiful day and the temperature reached twenty-five degrees.
As it was still early, I indulged in the comfortable blowing of the gentle breeze.
Is this a realization?
The lack of humidity was soothing to me.
I’ll take whatever happens today.
My own feelings… I want to confess my feelings to Ji Se, who is more important than anyone else, and then wait for her to make her own choice.
For example: Whatever the outcome is, I will be happy to accept it as long as it is Chisei’s choice.
For the people you love!
“Yuichi, Yuichi!”
All of a sudden there was a tap on my shoulder.
“Whoa?”
“You’re already here! When did you get here?”
Zhi Shi’s smile caught my eye.
“Huh? What time is it?”
“It’s fifteen past ten.”
“Yay? I must have accidentally fallen asleep!”
Zhi Shi looked at me with gentle eyes.
“I don’t even know, Yuichi’s sleeping face… looks so cute.”
“Have you been watching?”
“Eh, twenty out of twenty.”
I felt a sudden heat in my cheeks.
“Did I snore?”
“No, you slept well.”
“┅”
“Wahahaha, let’s go then!”
Zhi Shi seemed to be happy as he jumped and walked.
She was wearing a similar style to when I first met her, a matching white top and pants set.
No tights, no accessories, this is the original Knowles.
We walked to the pool together, Knowles laughing happily and talking happily.
“But isn’t this pool a membership?”
Knowshi inquired about me.
It’s actually something like that.
This swimming pool in Sakuragi Town was created by the hotel for the relaxation of its customers. However, this pool is only for the use of guests and members of the hotel.
Since I was short on funds for our last date, I had a hard time borrowing a membership card for this restaurant from my father.
The hotel’s swimming pool was unexpectedly under-utilized, and the atmosphere around it was very nice. The reason I chose this pool was because I read about it in a magazine.
This hotel is on the 20th floor and is a high-class city hotel that opened last year. There are two swimming pools, one with a circumference of 50 meters and the other with a circumference of 25 meters, surrounded by free lockers and shower rooms, which are very well-equipped.
There’s also a simple bar serving drinks around the pool, and the facilities here are almost comparable to those of a fine foreign hotel.
I came to the poolside first and sat on a bench waiting for Zhi Shi to change into her swimsuit and come out.
Just as I thought, there were fewer guests before noon, with only 2 to 3 other combinations of pairs besides us.
I felt so warped and loose, as if the pool was ours alone.
While I was immersed in the merriment, Zhi Shi came out.
“Woohoo!”
I made a noise without thinking.
Because Chise’s ice suit was as dazzling as if it had been worn by a supermodel, and this very sexy cut one-piece swimsuit amazed me even more!
Until a moment before, I had been pleased that she had resumed her previous dress; but at the moment I was bewildered by this mature and flirtatious gesture of hers.
“Darn, it seems a little tight.”
Zhi Shi said and laughed while my heart was beating and a part of my body suddenly changed as I panicked and jumped into the ice swimming pool.
“Are you going swimming?”
She looked at me innocently and asked me questions!
How can I still sit with her when she’s dressed like that?
But, I wonder if Zhi Shi realized that her smile had knocked into the depths of my heart? Could it be that this is her revenge? I can’t do anything but think randomly.
After a few minutes, my changes had tightened up a bit; but something seemed to be going on poolside.
“Doesn’t Chise swim?”
I tried to ask her.
“Uh… I… I…”
Zhi Shi suddenly showed an embarrassed smile.
“？”
“This bathing suit doesn’t seem to fit, and it looks like it’s showing all the way in the back.”
“So, do you want to go shopping for a new bathing suit?”
“Yeah!”
“I remember there was a swimsuit boutique in this hotel.”
“I’ll go change first then.”
After finishing his speech, Zhi Shi walked towards the locker room.
Knowshi wasn’t wrong, her bathing suit was indeed too small as her fart suit was half exposed and swaying from side to side.
I suddenly felt as if I should change my swim trunks as well.
“Yay? Yuuichi’s buying a swimsuit too?”
“Eh, my swim trunks seem to be too small too…”
(The fact that it is a certain part of the body that gets bigger).
We went back to the pool after getting our swimsuits and swam until noon.
“Hey, are you hungry?”
Knowshi, who was wearing a two-piece bikini-like swimsuit, swam over to me and asked.
“Yeah, it’s already dinner time isn’t it?”
I replied as I climbed into the pool.
“Yuuichi, you’re a good swimmer.”
Zhi Shi said while wearing an envious smile.
“I like it as long as it’s a sport.”
I answered her as I dried my body with a large bath towel.
We sat side by side on the bench and discussed the next program.
“What do you want for lunch?”
“Eh, I’m so hungry.”
“Then how about we go get some teppanyaki?”
“Okay? Is that okay?”
“I’m sure I brought enough money today.”
“But… just eat casually for lunch.”
She suggested an Italian restaurant in the neighborhood.
“I hear it’s really good. Want to check it out?”
“Then let’s go eat.”
As soon as we stepped out of the hotel, we immediately felt the heat outside.
After eating what Chise recommended, we set off for the nearby park.
We bought ice cream to enjoy together.
All the way up to this moment the uneasiness I had was slowly fading away.
Zhi Shi and I were walking together, talking and laughing as we walked, and I felt satisfied just by that.
We walked near a large grassy area.
“Want to sit down?”
Know the world and ask me.
I smiled and sat down with her.
Early summer breezes blew across the vast prairie.
The sunshine was still strong, but everything was warm thanks to the breeze that tempered it.
“Mmm, nice atmosphere!”
Knowshi stretched out a big stretch after saying that and headed for the grass to lie down.
“Would Yuuichi like to lie down together? It feels good.”
“May I?”
I lay down next to Zhi Shi and looked out at the endless sky.
“Woohooooooo!”
Suddenly Zhi Shi burst out laughing.
“What’s going on?”
“I, I feel so happy…”
“Happiness?”
“Doesn’t Yuichi feel happy?”
“┅No, too much happiness scares me.”
“Afraid…?”
“Uh…”
“Do you think happiness is something terrible?”
“┅Happiness itself is not frightening, but happiness can be disturbing.”
Zhi Shi propped up half his body to glare at me.
“Yeah, it does get unnerving.”
“Because there’s no guarantee that happiness will last forever.”
“But…”
Knowshi took his eyes off me.
“I… I’ve always liked Yuuichi.”
“Jisei!”
“I don’t know if the happiness will last forever, but I will absolutely love Yuuichi forever.”
Something seemed to glow in Zhi Shi’s cheeks.
How do I show my state of mind at this point?
How do you hit a home run after nine ties?
Is this a make-or-break game?
Or maybe I should simulate the mood of a climber who has climbed to the summit of Notre Dame… No, for me it’s the most exciting thing I’ve ever done.
Maybe, Zhi Shi came to meet me and confess to me with feelings of grief and determination.
Her cheeks were streaming with tears, yet she deliberately squeezed out a smile at me.
Knowing the world, knowing the world, I, I…!
I grabbed the wrist of Zhi Shi in front of me.
“Ah!”
Zhi Shi, who had lost his balance, immediately collapsed onto my chest.
I just held her like that.
“I… I like you no matter what happens.”
“Yuichi!”
“I really like you… no matter what misunderstandings happen, no matter what setbacks I encounter, I will definitely like you.”
“Eh!”
I don’t know how much we spoke, probably recounting each other’s encounters?
The two of us talked not only about Maiko, but also about Sanada, and mentioned everything about ourselves and each other… By the time we came back to our senses, the sun had already set in the west, and a thin layer of mist was shrouding the air around us.
“It’s getting late!”
Zhi Shi exclaimed in surprise as he looked at his watch.
I also immediately got up from the grass and patted the grass on me.
“About how long does it take to walk to the station from here?”
Zhi Shi inquired.
“It might take ten minutes on foot. But…”
“But what?”
“I don’t want to part with you yet.”
“Really?”
Zhi Shi kept blinking her bright eyes in delight.
“Actually, I’m not really in the mood to go home today either yeah.”
“Well, how about we go to Harbor Mound Park where we can see the harbor?”
“Yeah.”
We set off from the park where we are now, towards Takadai Park, which is next door.
Minatogaoka Park, as its name suggests, is a park with a view of Yokohama Harbor; it’s a perfect place for a date on a summer night like this.
We climbed the steps of the park one step at a time.
From the hills, the view of the jewel-like streets and the harborfront is dazzling.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa, the wind is so soft!”
Zhi Shi’s clothes floated in the direction of the harbor breeze.
The moonlight seemed to change the girl, and though she was wearing the same clothes as she had been in the morning, Zhi Shi now exuded a demonic aura.
“The truth is I would have dreaded this day.”
“Me too.”
“My heart almost stopped beating when Yuichi called me.”
“Yeah? How come I don’t feel your nerves?”
“Well… because as soon as I heard your voice, I desperately told myself that I was finally okay.”
“┅”
“I also want to have the same heart as Sanada that believes in each other.”
“So it is.”
“For the person I like, I can accept whatever he says.”
Knowles’s hair was blown about by the wind.
I couldn’t stand the love and compassion I felt for her and hugged her from her rear.
She pulled my hand around her to wipe the tears from her face.
“Jisei!”
I turned Zhi Shi’s body around.
We watched each other.
Knowles closed his eyes in silence.
Then I naturally kissed Tomoishi’s shoulder like I was being sucked in by a magnet.
It doesn’t matter who sees it.
Zhi Shi is my beloved.
It was as if we had forgotten to breathe on each other.
Ten minutes later, we walked down a street lined with hotels.
No words were needed at this point.
When we stopped, both of us, as if taking everything for granted, walked into one of the hotels together.
This is a hotel I have read about in magazines before, so it should be good.
Now, Zhi Shi appeared naked in front of me.
White pattering skin, small firm breasts, female private hair, all for me.
I myself was lying naked next to Zhi Shi.
“Want a shower? Or a bubble bath.”
“Both.”
Chise made a smaller than usual sound and nodded.
The design of this guesthouse benefits from a large bathtub in the bathroom.
“Want to go in and wash together?”
The reason I’m saying this is entirely because it was secretly planned just now.
Knowles proved to be none the wiser though, and she didn’t reject me, just answered me while smiling (probably embarrassed).
“Yes, you can!”
She told me so.
I didn’t realize that Zhi Shi was so skinny, or that it was because she usually wore slightly puffy clothes; the way she didn’t have any clothes on, she looked as slender as if she could be broken at any moment.
“I’m going to jump in the tub.”
Knowshi, who had gone into the shower first, made a calling sound to me.
“Eh!”
But after saying that she suddenly wore a confused expression.
“Yuichi, I have a favor to ask!”
“What is it?”
“Would you close your eyes for a second?”
When she finished, I closed my eyes.
Following the plopping sound made by the water, Zhi Shi’s foot touched me.
“May I?”
“Eh, it’s okay!”
After saying that, I opened my eyes.
“？”
Zhi Shi desperately tried to put on a calm smile, why did she have to tell me to close my eyes?
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, why… do you want me to close my eyes?”
“Because, I’m embarrassed to be in the same tub as you.”
I see. She’s afraid of being naked with me, isn’t she?
It’s so cute! So cute!
Now probably no girl would be embarrassed to be naked with her beloved man, especially before having sex!
Zhi Shi really is a special girl!
In the middle of the tub, I gradually felt an increase in volume (I finally had an erection), and I quickly dove into the water where the bubbles could cover me for cover.
“Can I hold you?”
I’m surprised that Zhi Shi was so bold.
“Yeah?”
She didn’t wait for me to answer, however, before she stepped forward and hugged me tightly.
“Because, I’d be embarrassed to be seen apart from you.”
Yeah, instead of being naked and exposed like this, you’d be invisible and not embarrassed if you hugged each other.
With that, I couldn’t help but kiss Zhi Shi in my arms.
“I’ll help you shower.”
The two of us played around for a bit before Chise said something else that surprised me.
At some point our positions reversed.
Presumably both people let go of their chests?
Knowshi gave me the impression of being naive at times, but bold at others, and I was just willingly played with by her.
“Let’s wash up!”
When I was slightly more conscious, I urged her to climb into the tub.
“Fair enough!”
Knowles seems to become open and then the voice changes a bit.
“Turn off the lights.”
Zhi Shi was lying in front of the bed, and she said this to me.
This voice wasn’t as bright as it had been in the bathtub, and I could clearly hear the tension in her tone.
Maybe she was a little tired after her bluff…
Knowshi shook his body slightly.
I don’t know if this is a sign of her excitement or a reaction to her feeling uneasy or fearful.
She squeezed her eyes shut and clenched her teeth as if ready to accept whatever would happen next.
“Jis…”
I kissed Zhi Shi’s lips once more.
Then I half opened my mouth and stuck my tongue out.
“Uh-goo!”
It’s not a very classy and romantic kiss.
But Knowles desperately craved my tongue.
Pooch. Chop-chop.
We couldn’t hear anything but each other’s attempts to respond.
Soon, my own tongue moved to the white peaks as I licked them.
“Yikes!”
Zhi Shi made a surprised sound.
Her nipples, which were flushed with a thin pinkish hue, had slowly hardened.
While I rubbed Tomoe’s breasts with both hands, I took her nipples in my mouth.
She reacted to the touch of my five fingers.
“ah, hoo… mmmm… ahoo!”
As I was caressing Knowles, her body kept twisting and her whole head almost hit her feet.
I moved Zhi Shi’s waist.
“Aaah… so hot…”
Zhi Shi let out a miserable shriek.
This voice of hers sparked the fire of my desire.
I moved Zhi Shi’s waist and held her, then explored her secret place with my tongue.
“Yeehmm! Nasty, no!”
The voice of Knowhere can no longer enter my ears.
Her secret place had long been overflowing with nectar, and the pink petals were slowly opening.
I suck the nectar with my tongue.
As my tongue sucks the nectar into my mouth, new nectar overflows from Knowles’ hidden place.
“Yah, ah yah, me, yah woo!”
From her body that had turned into a large character, Chise gradually bent her body into an arch because she couldn’t stand the stimulation, and she kept accepting my teasing.
“No, no, no… ah ah ah ah!”
Her eyes lose focus while her hands are free as if she’s craving my body.
I slipped my fingers toward the center of Knowles’ petals.
With a cooing sound, the finger had entered her secret honey place.
The center of Chise’s petals was very narrow, and thanks to the help of a large amount of love juice, I was able to get my fingers in.
“Aaah… oooh… I… I can’t… I can’t!”
Zhi Shi begged me as her whole body spasmed.
Without thinking, I twitched the fingers that were sticking in.
“Nasty… I… I… Yaaaaaaaahhhh!”
Poof! Gobble! Choo-bah! Yikes! Yikes!
Zhi Shi’s legs had become weak while her eyes were unfocused.
Yaaaaaaaahhhh! She breathed in sharply.
My dick had swelled to its limit, so I finally released it into Zhi Shi.
“Yaaaah!”
Zhi Shi seemed to have something to say, but I automatically pushed my important things into Zhi Shi regardless.
“Tsang, Tsang, Tsang, Tsang, Tsang, Tsang, Tsang, Tsang, Tsang, Tsang…
Although Zhi Shi’s private part was already wet, the inside of it was narrow and Tokusuke’s resistance seemed to be strong.
“Aaah! It hurts…”
Knowles shouted as he gritted his teeth through the pain.
When my dick was halfway in, more obstacles seemed to appear inside Knowles.
I pushed my hips in even more.
Pooch. Pooch. Pooch. Pooch.
In order to pierce Zhi Shi’s hymen, I tried even harder to push my baby in.
Knowles frowned, and her breathing seemed to become difficult.
But I must not hesitate at this moment.
Zip, zip! Zip zip!
I slowly jiggle my hips.
“It hurts… ah… it hurts… ah!”
Zhi Shi, who had been in a lot of pain, soon made a different sound than he had earlier.
“Ya uh, well!”
At this point, I had an orgasm in short order.
“Woo! Yahoooo!”
I let out an animalistic grunt and quickly pulled out my rod, which seemed to be on fire.
Jojo… Jojo!
My ejaculated semen soiled Zhi Shi’s skin.
“Yaaaaaaaahhhh!”
Knowles let out a miserable cry, the sound mixed with her rapid breathing as she opened her mouth to accept the cum that flew over her face and chest.
Like a wild animal gone wild, I pushed my baby in towards Knowshi’s mouth.
“Knowshi, help me get clean.”
“？”
Zhi Shi suddenly didn’t seem to understand what I meant. However, she naturally took my baby in her mouth and started licking it repeatedly.
My mind flashed quickly with excitement as my baby hardened once again.
“Woo-hoo!”
Knowshi smiled innocently, and all this time I hadn’t realized the potential dangerous face factor in her gaze.
“Is that what you want? Is it comfortable?”
Knowshi asking such a question took me by surprise, surprised that she had the time to ask me so.
“Eh!”
“I actually dislike it.”
“Yeah?”
“Sexual relations… is that it?”
“Um, did you understand?”
“Yay, Yuichi!”
“What is it?”
“Will you start to hate me?”
“Why?”
“┅”
Knowshi didn’t answer just continued to lick my baby.
“How could I hate you?”
“Hoo-hoo!”
“？”
“But you made love to me!”
“Making love?”
“Because, I didn’t want to expose myself so much in front of a man…”
“？”
“From now on I want to see everything Yuichi has to offer.”
“Jisei!”
“You can only have Zhi Shi for one.”
“Jisei!”
“Hiccup, hiccup, so happy!”
“Yes?”
“It’s a really good feeling.”
Poof! Poof! Pfft! Pfft!
Zhi Shi seemed to be intoxicated as if he was painting a picture of happiness.
I’m feeling a little uneasy.
What if Zhi Shi becomes a prisoner of sex?
She mustn’t let this cause her to go out…
“Yuichi do you feel comfortable?”
“Yeah!”
I didn’t expect Knowles to smile and ask me that question.
“Did you already know it was going to be this comfortable?”
“┅！”
Well, I never mentioned the part about going into the hotel with Maiko when we were talking in the park earlier.
I’m sure Zhi Shi must have felt skeptical a long time ago, and she seemed to have been calculating how to question me. Therefore, her smile made me feel slightly nervous.
How should I answer her?
As I was asking myself questions, she waited for my answer with an expression that was on the verge of tears, and as if she couldn’t bear it nervously, she finally spoke up on her own.
“But…”
“I know, I’m not going to mess around, it’s really my first time.”
“But…”
“You mean about me and Maiko?”
“Eh, it’s good not to mention her for now. But there should be many more people with more skill than me, shouldn’t there?”
“No. Actually I don’t know… For me, Zhi Shi is the only one in my heart, and I don’t want to know anything else.”
“┅”
“Trust me!”
“Um, I believe you, and…”
“What else?”
“I’ll keep trying, and I’ll never leave Yuichi.”
If it was before, instead of being very happy to hear Zhi Shi say something like that I would have felt a little uneasy.
However, now that Zhi Shi is acting so sincerely, it’s natural for me to understand her feelings.
I suddenly remembered what Maiko had once said.
“Anyway, try to make love to her once first, in that case you’ll definitely find another brand new world…”
A whole new world opened up in front of me… If there was such a thing, it must have been with Jisae.
After that, Zhi Shi and I will be tightly held together.
The day we were attuned, the two of us held each other tightly until dawn.
End of Chapter V
The next morning when I woke up, Chise was up too and she kept looking at me.
“Good morning, good morning.”
Knowles looked at me and told me good morning, she kept smiling but didn’t say anything, then moved her face close to me praying for a kiss.
“Good morning… Yaaaah!”
Suddenly Knowshi raises her voice in greeting.
“Are you still dreaming? It’s a good morning kiss.”
Zhi Shi’s cheeks reddened slightly when she finished.
“What time is it?”
“Let’s see, it’s after nine.”
“Yea, so, what time can I stay here?”
“Well?”
“I don’t think we should check out anytime soon.”
“Yes?”
“Yeah, or you’ll get fined.”
Zhi Shi seems to be feeling a little disgruntled.
“I still want to stay here yeah.”
“Yeah? Yeah, yeah.”
Of course I’m in favor of it. If she says so, I won’t have a problem with it.
I picked up the phone and told the counter to extend the hours.
“May I?”
After the call, I looked at Knowles and asked her if she was related.
“It’s okay to skip school.”
Such a Zhi Shi in the midst of innocence, although not to talk about demonic, but added a hint of adult maturity, as if to become another person.
“Zhi Shi, I can’t believe you have such a relaxed side.”
“┅Yuichi, why are you suddenly saying that.”
“No, I think there are a lot of faces in Knowhere that I don’t recognize.”
“Yes?”
Zhi Shi suddenly floated an adult-style smile and shifted his eyes to me.
“You don’t like that?”
“Do you…”
“I didn’t mean anything else, I just thought that Zhi Shi’s face…”
“Yeah?”
“I think there must be something else about you…”
I don’t know where she gets her confidence from…
“I’m going to present various different looks to Yuuichi from now on, so Yuuichi has to show me many looks too ooh.”
Is this what Maiko calls the strong side of “women”?
The new world that unfolded in front of me… I can say that it was unexpectedly colorful and exciting.
Since that day Zhi Shi became very active, dressing in clothes that were bolder than before, matching many more colors, and even wearing jewelry that she didn’t like one by one.
One of the things that has changed the most is her hairstyle, where she has done some layering in addition to her already straight hair, and leaking bright colors.
But I don’t get confused about her because of that.
Knowing the world began to label me with faithfulness in and around me.
She became bright, serious, responsible, and retained her innocence…
However, her thoughts about her surroundings were becoming mature.
Rather than being interested in what the people around her thought of her, Zhi Shi now cared about how she presented herself to the onlookers.
From the change in clothing to the change in hairstyle, I can see the effort she puts into pursuing her quest for newness.
Anyway, as she got prettier and prettier, more and more men around her became interested in her.
But I think there must be only one me in her heart… I believe.
At least, there’s no one else in my heart but her.
More than the rate of change in her appearance, the two of us probably had sex more often than ever.
On the second date.
After entering the hotel, she grabbed my wrist and asked me questions.
“What’s wrong with you?”
“You, you don’t feel uneasy!”
After we walked into the room, Zhi Shi was bolder than before in performing oral sex with me.
“I can hear Yuichi’s heartbeat…”
Zhi Shi’s eyes were no longer confused, they even became mesmerized, and when I was undressing her, she automatically did me a favor.
After a few experiences, we are getting better at caressing.
“Ya, no… be more gentle…”
“Gently bite my nipple…”
All of this indicates that she is working on her own sex tape.
If you do the math, Zhi Shi comes to my house at least 3 times a week, sometimes she cooks for me and sometimes she cleans my room.
Then we would watch pornographic videos and do research together.
Nowadays, Chise also likes to wear kimono or sexy lingerie to make love to me and she’s even hooked on doing the position behind her back and the horseback riding position.
However, nothing had changed in her appearance, she still looked like a pure and innocent young girl.
Whether it’s the lively and innocent Chise who goes out on a date with me, or the Chise who makes lustful love to me in my room, I’m deeply immersed in her charms.
It’s been one year since our first night.
Today is my twenty-first birthday.
However, today was also the first day that Zhi Shi left home and moved in with me.
The phone is ringing. I wonder if it could be Knowles?
“I’m Katsuragi.”
“Hey, it’s me!”
“So it’s Matsunaga!”
“Don’t make such a disappointed sound, isn’t today the day that Chise moved to your place?”
“That’s right.”
“You don’t need my help?”
“Help?”
“Yes, there should be times when the force is necessary!”
“No, thank you.”
“How?”
“Hasn’t Zhi Shi been coming to my place a lot lately?”
“Yippee!”
“So, before that, we had the first move some daily necessities and stuff yah.”
“So it is.”
“Yeah? You seem disappointed, are you, like, still trying to pick up my girl?”
“Don’t, don’t talk nonsense, I’ll be in trouble if Yayoi hears me!”
“Hahaha! How about wrapping up a 50,000 yuan red packet first to celebrate my move?”
“Hey, I’m going to hang up then.”
“Wait, we’ll invite you over when we’re done moving.”
“It’s a deal.”
Matsunaga reconnected with Yayoi Shimamura four months ago after being dumped by her.
Matsunaga, who kept arranging for different girls to pretend to intervene when Zhise and I were dating, and kept carrying out the plan to sabotage his detrimental friend, was 80% because he was too lonely.
One day, he narrated his heart to me at school.
When I entered the bubble tea store, the guy and a girl were already sitting over there waiting for me.
“I am, in the middle of a relationship with this girl.”
“Is that so? So you’re here to pay me tribute lo?”
As we speak, Yayoi Shimamura walks in.
“Strange? Why are you guys here too?”
As Shimamura greeted us, she also saw the girl next to Matsunaga, and she immediately turned pale.
“It seems that Matsun never kisses my ass lo.”
The girl immediately became jealous when I said that.
“Hmph, didn’t you break up with that black guy?”
“Yeah?”
Matsunaga and I looked at each other, neither of us could understand what was happening.
However, Matsunaga’s then-girlfriend’s face turned sour, and without saying anything else, she stood up and left.
“Hey, hey!”
Matsunaga panicked and stood up to try to hold her back, but Yayoi stopped him.
“Are you out of your mind?”
“Wh, what the hell, why did you say that?”
“Do you have any idea what that girl is about or not?”
“That was introduced to me by my senior, so I dated her…”
“Actually, yeah, that girl’s boyfriend’s name is Saint Son.”
“The holy son? Ahhh, is that the one with the last name Matsuda?”
“Yeah. She likes foreigners and usually fishes for yokels in Roppongi and the Akabane place, and when Seiko’s ship came to Yokosuka, she ran there to date him.”
“┅？”
“For that girl, Japanese men are a substitute for her foreign boyfriend when he’s away, I think all these school boys should know that ah.”
Yayoi’s expression of serious explanation made Matsunaga look dumbfounded.
“Y… Y… I never thought I’d be cheated so badly…”
“Shimamura, just do him a favor! Introduce a girl to her…”
I finally couldn’t resist asking Yayoi Shimamura for help.
“It can’t be helped… So, how about I go out with you?”
“Yeah?”
“What… what do you have against me?”
“No… no, how could I…”
I didn’t realize that such a thing could happen… What was this Shimamura thinking?… Anyway, no man can understand what a girl is thinking.
However, this Matsunaga, who almost had a personality breakdown, was finally rescued by a bystander. However, lately he’s become more and more of a stalker, often calling me and asking me to go out with him, no longer daring to wander around alone.
Thanks to God’s help, I’m in less and less trouble.
“We should quit the jungle!”
He often said with such an exclamation.
Anyway, that’s what we talk about when we’re bored.
Yikes, time for me to mention how Maiko is doing.
We hadn’t spoken in a while since the day we broke up; she called me about 2 months after she and Chisei had officially started dating.
“How’s it going? It’s getting better with her, isn’t it!”
“It’s all your help.”
I thought carefully about Maiko’s incident, it was probably a momentary emotional impulse on my part! Maybe I’ve calmed myself down now, so talking to her on the phone was unexpectedly calm.
I heard her helpless voice over the phone.
“I wonder if you have time?”
“Today? After 8:00 is fine.”
“That…”
“Going to that store?”
Maiko poofed out a laugh.
“Pick somewhere else today! How about just the bubble tea store near the main entrance of your school?”
“Yikes! You mean the Red Leaf Bubble Tea Shop? Yeah!”
“I’ll see you at 8:00 then Ro.”
“Eh!”
I arrived at the appointed time and she was already here.
“Yay? Did you change somewhere!”
My surprise was not without reason.
Maiko was wearing a light pink suit, which was strange to say that she hadn’t hated this kind of outfit before.
“Yeah, does it fit?”
“Eh.”
We both looked and smiled at each other when I finished.
“Did something happen?”
I cut to the chase.
“Is it because we didn’t meet at that store… Come to think of it, we haven’t spoken to each other in quite some time.”
“Haaah, yeah!”
Maiko was smiling, but her smile was a bit forced.
“What the hell is going on?”
“It’s, it’s that… you remember that time, don’t you?”
“Yeah? What’s the scenario?”
“When I separated from you, I said… I like you, don’t I?”
“Yeah, that’s the one? I was so happy!”
But at that moment, Maiko wore a confused expression.
“Then, this matter is still, please, forgotten!”
“Yeah?”
“Please, please… don’t laugh at me, I, I’m getting married.”
Maiko gave a happy smile as if she was troubled.
“Tie the knot, get married?”
“Um, I’m also planning to take a break from school.”
“Why? Is your husband against you studying?”
“It’s not that he’s afraid of opposition, but he’s going to be transferred abroad.”
“Yeah?”
“I’m telling you, he’s an office worker.”
“Could, could your other half be…”
“That’s right, it’s Sanada.”
Extra large!
How is this to be explained? Call her conservative she really is a little bit conservative; call her resting on her laurels she really is resting on her laurels, Maiko suddenly marries Sanada and lives in Australia for the time being.
Getting married as a student, then abandoning her studies to start a family with her other half and having their next generation; these are what she wrote on the postcards she sent from Australia.
But wait a minute… This happened the month after we entered the hotel.
I wonder what she’s become as a mother?
I would love to see her as a mom.
Zhi Shi should be here soon.
Ding Dong!
Chop!
“Happy Birthday!”
Before I could open my eyes to see, a bouquet of blue flowers was delivered to me, interspersed with ecstatic sounds of congratulations.
“You’re so slow!”
“I’m sorry, it does seem a bit far from Narita?”
Strange? How come it’s Narita?
Isn’t Chise’s house only 500 meters away from here?
What’s wrong? Isn’t this person Zhi Shi, and it doesn’t sound like ∶ ah!
“Mai, Maiko?”
“Yeah, Yuichi, long time no see!”
The person who walked in through the foyer turned out to be Maiko, who was holding a baby.
She looks darker than she did before she left the country, probably due to the sun, and she looks even more beautiful after giving birth.
However, her personality seems to be more open and foreignized than before, and to put it mildly she has become neither Japanese nor foreigner.
But the Maiko of the past was already very good at reading people’s faces, and with her transformation over time, she’s grown from her former debutante to a much more flavorful woman.
But why is she here now?
“What are you, what are you doing here? Where’s your husband?”
I always felt that my lesser growth looked like a shooting star next to the moon before Maiko’s change.
Maiko answered me without thinking.
“I’m divorced! That’s why I’m staying here!”
This person, what the hell is she talking about!
I had managed to dust off the previous virginity issue to the bottom of my memory box, and Maiko seemed to be picking it up again!
But why did she pick a time like this? Especially on the anniversary of my first night with Chise and the start of our cohabitation; how do I throw this time bomb far away?
“Yeah? You’re so crafty!”
I show my refusal slightly.
But this in no way overrides Maiko’s good intentions.
Moreover, at that time, it was due to my accepting Maiko’s advice that I was able to change Zhi Shi into what she is today… Therefore, I have always thought of her with respect.
Anymore, she’s the one I gave away half my virginity to.
Anyway, all the reasons…
“I’m going to live with my girlfriend from today.”
“Girlfriend, as in the old Knowles?”
Maiko’s face lit up.
“Yeah.”
“Great? It’s not like I don’t know Zhi Shi.”
“Yeah?”
“Whew! Isn’t this great, the 3 of us can live together.”
“What are you talking about, don’t joke around, okay!”
“It’s not bad for 3 people to do it together!”
“What’s the fun in that!”
Maiko really looks like a Kansai man.
“Yeehaw! Are you wavering? You think this is fun too, don’t you?”
“Aigoo… are you, are you deliberately trying to cause trouble today!”
“What are you talking about? I’m not. I think you’ve been screwed by a woman.”
“Our first time didn’t work out did it…”
“What are you talking about?”
The stern warnings of the gods… No, no, the voices of demons were furiously pounding on my long-frozen memories.
However, in the shadow of the maiko, the goddess… no, the devil… nor, Zhi Shi appeared.
“Yay? Isn’t that Maiko?”
“Much obliged, I’ll have to ask you to take care of me in the future!”
“No! You’ve got it all wrong!”
I was trying to correct the complex thoughts in my head.
Why are they adding fuel to the fire? Saying something like that in this situation, doesn’t it mean that a very destructive bomb is about to explode.
Maiko is Maiko, in this situation she was able to happily look at me with mocking eyes.
“Isn’t it blissful to be surrounded by a half-cohabitant, Ms. Chisei, and me, who’s fallen into a state of semi-virginity!
”
Stop it, it’s too dangerous to make statements like that~!
“Dear Yuichi, come here for a moment…”
Underneath the smiling face of Zhi Shi, the mask of the evil Rohitsu was gradually revealed, and she was beckoning to me.
Is this the sweet fruit of hell’s feast arranged?
Faintly conscious, I was gradually able to appreciate the pain that followed the sweetness.
I see…
Now that it’s happened, I can finally appreciate what Yayoi said in the first place.
‘Feet in two boats will taste the bitter fruit one day.’
I thought the sentence ended when it took Zhi Shi’s virginity, but I didn’t realize it was a ticking time bomb.
“Hah, yah yah… I’ll go out and get some juice first!”
Anyway, I’ll run away from the house first.
On the way, I finally met the god of luck.
“Hey, Katsuragi, why aren’t you helping out around the house.”
Matsunaga and Shimamura were about to come to my house when I called them back in a hurry.
“Sorry, I may have to travel a bit, so I’m counting on you guys for the rest of the day!”
Before the two of them knew what was going on inside, they headed for my house, and I heard that they were warmly welcomed by Maiko and Chise who were respectfully drinking tea.
At this point, Shimamura spoke to Matsunaga again.
“Look, look, look, Laurelwood’s new world must be exquisite.”
