I Was Supposed to Be Giving Love Advice on the School Radio, but Before I Knew It, the Beautiful Girls at School Were Hitting on Me
“The first letter is from a person whose radio name is Matcha Powder !
Hello Kageyama san, I always enjoy listening to you,
I told you before that there was someone I was interested in on this corner, and a senior colleague gave me some advice.
Oh, I think it was Matcha Powder san. It was about how to approach someone who only thinks of you as a little sister. I think I told her to use her little sister character and fight with the contrast.”
A pinch of light supplementary explanation for new listeners.
“And so……
Kageyama san was right, I tried to attack him as a sister character, but to be honest, I didn’t get any response at all……”
Seriously, sorry Matcha Powder…..
“However ! Even for me, there has been some progress ! I actually ended up indirectly kissing the senior I’m interested in ! And he initiated it !
For me, I think it’s a gesture that suggests he’s interested in me, but I’m not sure. I’d like to know what you think about it, Kageyama san !
…….Okay.”
I see, so you have an indirect kiss with a senior whom you are interested in, huh?
This is something…..
“Well, that was a bittersweet letter～. To be honest, I’m really in agony ! What about you listeners? Especially the guys who don’t have girlfriends like me ! Are you choking on your food
!?”
I give a reaction in a provocative tone. Incidentally, Mashiro sensei is covering her mouth with one hand, probably to pretend she hasn’t noticed.
…She choked.
“So, the content of your letter is…..honestly how do you feel about that part? It says that you want me to determine whether the indirect kiss is a sign of interest or not…right?”
I think the nuance of the sentence is slightly different, but well, maybe this is how it should be interpreted.
I see……indirect kissing…….
I honestly don’t know, I’m too inexperienced, but I have a stock of these kinds of stories from the shoujo manga my sister forced me to read. Uh, I’m pretty sure those main characters are…….
“Well, if the other person is doing that on purpose, I honestly think there’s a chance he’s interested !
It’s the opposite of what I told Matcha Powder the other day. He is just an older brother, so he does something to make you nervous on purpose to make you aware of him as an older brother ! I think there is an underlying intention like that !
The more aloof he is after that, the more likely it is !”
It’s the kind of punchline that ends with, [Why are you acting so nonchalant about it being an indirect kiss? You’re so stupid, being so conscious of me !], and then it turns out the protagonist was secretly embarrassed too…so common.
“I’m really sorry that the little sister character ended up being a flop, but I think it’s a pretty good one ! Good luck !”
Through this radio show, I’m able to witness someone’s love story.
It may be presumptuous of me, but I felt like I was making a contribution to someone’s life, and that made me somewhat happy.
“You see, there’s no rule that says you can only post a love advice column once ! If anyone has made progress in their love life through this column, we’d love to hear from you !”
I told her, and then flipped through the next letter to this one.
I breathe a sigh of relief when I see a name I’ve missed for a while.
“Then, the next letter is from someone with the radio name Kombu Wakame !”
Kombu Wakame……is a soft-spoken and polite person who sends us polite letters.
I had been a little anxious because I had not received a letter since I started the love counseling project, but finally they sent one to me……
Of course I’m happy when my project becomes popular and new listeners come, but I’m really excited when the old-timers get on board like this……
Okay, let’s get into it and read it !
“Hello Kageyama san, it’s been a while since I’ve sent you a letter. I’ve heard that you have started a new project, and although it may be a little different from a love consultation, I’d like to send a letter to you this time.
What I would like to ask is, when you confess your feelings to someone, what kind of words do you use?
Since Kageyama san is doing a love counseling project, I assume that you must have a lot of experience in this kind of thing.
So, for the sake of future study, I would like you to tell me what you think is the coolest line of confession. If possible, it would be great if you could be specific and speak with a lot of realism.
……Okay.”
The letter has a calm tone not seen in other letters. Although it is concise, I can sense the intense passion in the writing.
However, experienced or not……. I’m glad you think so, since I’m a relationship advisor, but it makes me sad when I compare it to my own experience of not having had a girlfriend in my life……
“Well, a confession line that I think is cool, so I guess it’s from a guy’s perspective? I wonder if Kombu Wakame would like to take it as reference as well?”
I made one coughing sound, which I rarely do on the radio, to get into the swing of things.
Um….if it were a confession line, it would be a safe [I like you ! Please go out with me !] or [Will you stay by my side?] Or, if you want to be a little more aggressive, you can say something like, [Be mine.]…..”
I looked up and saw Sensei staring at me with vacant eyes.
“Be mine, huh…”
Suddenly, the depths of my body became hot with embarrassment. Crap, I got too excited. As I froze for a moment, Sensei opened her mouth a little.
“I wish I could be told that kind of line…….”
“I-I see !”
Feeling uneasy, I quickly concentrated on the broadcast.
Also, my voice is just plain embarrassing, it’s not a situational voice or anything.
“You said about full of realism, so that’s an extra charge, so…… Yes ! Kombu Wakame, I hope you found this helpful. Well then, I’d like to move on to the next letter !”
With a blur of embarrassment, I hurriedly picked up the next letter.
