After I Saved Kirigiri San, a Cool, Sharp-tongued Gyaru, From a Pick-up, She Started Coming Into My House the Next Day
Although I consulted with Haga and Chinatsu, more than two days had passed without me being able to think of anything at all that Kirigiri would be happy to receive.
I spent my days at home lazing around on my phone searching for the “top three things girls would be happy to receive” and browsing back through them without a single thought.
“I guess I’m thinking too hard……”
That’s when the house doorbell rang in my room.
“The doorbell has been working too much lately.” I thought to myself as I went to check on the visitor.
I had no plans to play with Haga, so I could guess who the visitor might be.
“You’re not busy, are you?”
My guess was correct, and there she was, Kirigiri in her school uniform.
“I’m not busy.”
Kirigiri looks a little dissatisfied, perhaps because my cold response was not good.
“What are you doing right now?”
“I was taking a nap…….”
I can’t say I was searching for the top three things girls like to receive.
I had received a message from Kirigiri beforehand, so I knew she would be coming to my house.
“It’s still early evening, what’s the rush?”
I’ve been thinking about it, and it seems like Kirigiri has been coming to my house more and more often lately, but that’s okay.
“Is it bad for me to come and play?”
“No, it’s not that……”
I hope you didn’t come to my house just to play games. I feel like you’ve been trying to hang out at my house a lot lately…
Despite these doubts, I decided to let Kirigiri into my house.
It’s not good to think too hard about it, so I was just thinking about playing a game.
Kirigiri steps into the house with familiar movements.
“Kirigiri, don’t you ever hang out with your friends?”
I always see her with her pals, so she must be having more fun than with me like this. That question came to mind.
“I do. I just didn’t have plans with everyone else today.”
It’s strange that she would come to see me just because her schedule didn’t work out, but I’m not going to mention it any further.
“Oh, are you the type who wants to be friends with the gyarus?”
“No, I’m not.”
“Oh, right.”
It’s not that I don’t like gyarus, but I’ll let it slide.
“Now, Imma raise my ranks with Xiao mei today !”
Kirigiri is excited as she holds the controller in hand. It seems that all she wanted to do was play games.
“H-hm…..? That’s weird…….”
Kirigiri is randomly pressing buttons on the controller. I wonder what was going on.
“It stopped responding…….”
“Eh? Let me see.”
I pushed the buttons up, down, right, left, and so on, but the character didn’t move.
I thought it was a bad connection since it was wireless, but it was not.
“It’s broken.”
“Eh !? No way !?”
This controller itself was bought several years ago, so it must have reached the end of its life.
“Can’t you send it in for repair?”
“I’ve never heard of sending a controller in for repair. I think it would be cheaper to buy one.”
“I’m sorry. I broke it…….”
Hearing this, Kirigiri looked a little disappointed. It must have been such a shock. But this was no one’s fault.
“It’s fine, it’s just a controller. Luckily, I have another one.”
I handed the controller I was using to Kirigiri, but she seemed somewhat unconvinced.
“I’m gonna buy a new one.”
“A new one?”
“Yeah.”
If Kirigiri says so, I won’t stop her.
“Well, be careful.”
“Eh? Kinoshita, you’re coming.”
“Why? You can buy the controllers yourself.”
“I don’t know which one to buy.”
If you think about it, it’s not very realistic for Kirigiri, who doesn’t know anything about games, to go to a game shop by herself to buy a controller.
Plus, there are many controllers that aren’t compatible with the hardware, so there’s a risk that she’ll buy the wrong one.
(But I can’t go outside with Kirigiri right now !)
This apartment is not far from the school, so if I go outside, I will definitely run into students from the school. If that happens, it will become a school rumor and my peaceful school life will be in jeopardy. I had to do something to stop it.
“How about buying it online then? Witj same-day delivery–“
“No. I wanna buy it now.”
“T-then, I’ll go get it for you, and you can wait for me–“
“I can’t. I’m coming with you.”
I tried to come up with a way out of this, but was rejected at every turn, and Kirigiri’s will seemed to be firm. The only option is to go.
However, it would be reckless to go outside in my uniform like this.
“Okay. In exchange, you have to listen to what I say.”
“What?”
“Put on a disguise.”
I take some men’s clothes out of the closet and lay them out on the floor in a random pattern.
“You don’t wanna be discovered by the school kids that badly?”
“Of course not. You should consider your influence a little bit.”
Kirgkiri stares at me with her cheeks puffed out. She may be reluctant to wear a disguise, but if she were to be seen going out with me, the school would be in chaos. It’s possible that the boys would be hostile towards me the next day. In fact, it was a certainty.
“Ah~ It can’t be helped…..well, but it might be fun to be a spy.”
Kirigiri smiles as she looks at the disguise clothes. It seems we’ve finally found a compromise.
I was relieved, but also chuckled when I saw Kirigiri’s more aggressive appearance than when I first met her.
