Volume 2 Episode 5 – Secrecy

After I Saved Kirigiri San, a Cool, Sharp-tongued Gyaru, From a Pick-up, She Started Coming Into My House the Next Day


“So ! Chinatsu, you see ! She’s as cute as ever !”

“Oh, I see……that’s great.”

During lunch break in the classroom, I was listening to Haga’s boastful stories as usual.

The same story he told every day, so I think I’m getting better at letting it slide.

“I mean, you’ve been looking better lately, haven’t you?”

“Really? I don’t think so.”

I nodded casually and put the vegetable sandwich into my mouth.

The lettuce is crunchy and very tasty.

“But you’ve always been drinking coke, haven’t you? And lately you’ve been drinking a lot of tea,?”

In fact, I’m in great shape because I’m eating a healthy diet, including the stir-fried vegetables that Kirigiri and I made together.

Kirigiri comes over irregularly, so there are days when I have to cook alone, but since I mastered the vegetable stir-fry the other day, I don’t have any problems. Also, quitting the coke I used to drink every day is probably a big deal.

This is also thanks to Kirigiri’s suggestion. It’s important to review your lifestyle.

“I’m just addicted to tea.”

I can’t come out about my relationship with Kirigiri here, so I tell an appropriate lie.

In fact, we are all Japanese, so there is nothing strange about drinking tea.

“Who the hell are you. You used to drink more coke than three meals, didn’t you? You.”

“That’s an exaggeration.”

What the hell do you think I am?

While making that remark, I took a sip of tea.

“But you’re acting kind of funny, aren’t you? You’ve started eating vegetables for lunch, and your room was clean when I went over to your house the other day. 

You’re acting funny.”

As I thought, this guy has a keen intuition.

On the surface, he looks like an idiot because he is always talking about his love life, but he has this side to him.

Well, I guess he was able to get a girlfriend because he could notice such details.

“My parents just told me to clean the house once in a while.”

“Is that really all there is to it?”

Haga looks at me as if she suspects something.

I was worried that people around me might misunderstand because our faces were so close, so I casually put my hand to my chin and looked away.

“You always put your hands on your chin whenever you lie.”

“Goho ! Goho !”

The unexpected remark made me spurt out my tea.

I didn’t know I had that habit.

“Besides, you’ve been looking at your phone a lot lately. There must be something going on.”

I’ve been messaging Kirigiri almost every day.

We don’t have any particularly meaningful exchanges, but we mostly communicate about whether she’s coming over to my house or not. Also, about fighting games.

“Isn’t it even more weird when it’s the other way around?”

I’m not comfortable with being left unsaid, so I try to talk back a little.

“Well, I don’t really mind ! I’m just curious !”

Haga smiles with a big smile on his face.

Yes, he is like that, he will get involved in anything that he thinks sounds interesting. Nothing has changed since junior high school. That’s why he is such a nuisance.

“Hm~? You’re here too, Yu kun ! Yoo-hoo !”

Suddenly, a lively female voice came into my ears from the hallway. As soon as they recognize her, the boys in the class are transfixed by the beautiful girl.

“Yo, Chinatsu !”

“Hey, Ren chan ! I see you’re eating something delicious~!

This woman with brown bobbed hair and big breasts is Minamisawa Chinatsu. She is Haga’s girlfriend. Although they are in different classes, she comes to see Haga from time to time.

She has a lively personality, many friends, and is so beautiful that she has a fan base in school. Even though she has a boyfriend, she is constantly being confessed to, so she is often seen consulting Haga about it.

“Don’t you think Yuuma has changed too, Chinatsu?”

“Eh, I think I know ! I think he’s become more sophisticated, or maybe he’s changed his personality ! Or has he become a little cooler?”

I don’t think I’ve become any cooler, so it’s probably just her imagination, but I’m disappointed that such a troublesome person has appeared.

Like Haga, Chinatsu is aggressive and inquisitive about things that interest her. She is the female version of Haga.

(Please, let the lunch break be over…….)

I prayed in my heart and sipped my tea, being as careful as possible not to do the habit Haga had just pointed out to me, and to cover it up.

“Don’t tell me you’ve got a girlfriend?”

“No way ! Who is it !? I’m getting curious ! In this school ! Or outside !?”

Both of them were surprised and came up to me.

“You’re jumping to conclusions. There’s no such thing.”

There is absolutely no truth to that. Of course, Kirigiri and I are not dating.

I’ve never had a girlfriend before. I have never been confessed by anyone. I am a virgin.

“Tch, bummer…I was kinda hoping for something like that.”

Kirigiri is helping me with my daily needs for a limited period of time. It would be more accurate to call her a maid.

If I get too cocky and start acting like her boyfriend, I’m sure I’ll get my ass kick by Xiao mei.

“You have good qualities too, if you paid more attention to fashion you’d be popular, what a waste.”

“I know~! Yu kun is tall, so if he wanted to get a girlfriend, it would be easy!”

The other day I measured myself at school and I was about 170cm. Well, I’m neither short nor tall.

As for fashion, I have never paid attention to fashion because I almost never go outside.

And fashionable clothes are expensive. Am I the only one who feels that spending money on games is more meaningful than spending money on such things?

“Hm? Lunch break is over already……I wish we could’ve talked more.”

Then, just in time, a chime rings to announce the end of the lunch break.

Chinatsu looks disappointed. Haga, seeing this, quickly follows up.

“Chinatsu, let’s have a lot of lovey-dovey time after school !”

“Yeah ! Thanks, Ren chan~! Good luck with your classes !”

Although I think it’s a bit strange to be so affectionate in public, I think it’s amazing that Haga does what he wants without worrying about what others think, and I honestly respect him.

“Bye, Yu kun ! Let’s hang out together again sometime~♪”

“Ooooh.”

After giving Haga a kiss, Chinatsu went back to her classroom.

Then the hustle and bustle of the lunch break calmed down and everyone moved on to class.

“I knew she was cute~my girlfriend, that is.”

(Thank God…..)

Looking at Haga who was muttering in a daze, I felt a sense of relief.

It is absolutely imperative that the relationship between me and Kirigiri is not revealed.

I must keep it hidden at all costs. I vowed to tighten my grip once again.
