596 It’s all Seiji’s fault… (1/2)
”Really…? Why?” Hoshi was rather confused.
”I don't know.”
”You'd have to ask him about that.”
”If he's willing to tell you, that is.” The twins sighed in unison.
”How about having some desserts?” After splitting up from the three Amami siblings, Seiji considered what they could do next.
”Are you asking if I want to go to the Divine Taste confectionery store?” Natsuya understood what he was referring to.
”Yeah. That's the place where we first met.”
Seeing Hoshi helped to jog Seiji's memory of this location.
Back in the Divine Taste sweets store, which belonged to Rika Amami, was where he met Natsuya for the first time, where she invited him to transfer to Genhana High School…
”That's indeed a meaningful location for both of us, but this is enough for today.” Natsuya smiled. ”Let's go next time.”
Seiji didn't insist since she said so.
Today was already a wonderful day for him.
However, this wasn't the case for certain others.
”Are you still in a foul mood?” Chiaki walked into Mika's room and smiled as she saw how Mika was still lazing around in bed.
”Not at all,” the twintailed girl said into her pillow.
”You're not convincing like this at all. Still, you're quite cute like this.” Chiaki sat on her bed. ”How about I physically console you?”
”Don't joke like that.”
”I'm not joking at all! As long as you want… No, as long as you allow me to, I'll start eating right away!”
”What are you going to eat!”
”Miss, I have excellent techniques. I promise that you'll immediately forget about that heartbreaker~”
”Stop pretending like you're a Casanova!”
Mika sighed after retorting.
”I don't feel like joking around with you right now, Chiaki.”
”Then let's be serious. Let's have sex with each other, Mika.” Chiaki stopped using a joking tone as something flashed in her eyes.
Mika was rendered speechless.
”Even if I'm not the type who doesn't object at all when her boyfriend is having a date with another girl, so I want to vent as well.” Chiaki lay down next to Mika in her bed. ”Of course, I don't want to do it with you only to vent. I also really like you and want to have sex with you. That's what I really think.”
”Chiaki…” Mika didn't know how to respond.
”Do you like me, Mika?” Chiaki looked straight at her and asked a direct question.
'Like? Of course I like you, but…'
”I don't have any such…”
”Not any at all?” the tomboy asked in a gentle tone as she placed her hand on Mika's cheek.
Mika was astonished by this sudden contact.
She felt as if an electric current suddenly ran through her heart.
Although the current was quite weak, she indeed felt such a current. This rather surprised herself.
”You knew that I was bisexual, and still kept being good friends with me. Haven't you ever considered the possible implications of this?”
”I'm… not…”
”I know that you're not, but there's no absolutes.” Chiaki smiled gently. ”Actually, many people don't know what they truly like. They're just bound by so-called common sense, and believe themselves to be normal. Such people only need to experience things once… in order to awaken, or gradually accept how they are. Of course, some people really are normal, and won't change themselves even after an experience, so they won't do it again afterwards. Since you don't have any objections towards me being bisexual, and you're even willing to accept the fact that you're joining part of Seiji's harem… Mika, are you really certain that you're 'normal'?”
Mika was once again, rendered speechless.
'Am I really that normal?' She couldn't help but wonder about this.
When she started doubting herself, she felt as if she had touched upon who she really was.
Just as Chiaki said, her acceptance of willing to be in a harem was probably something that ”normal” people would consider ”abnormal.”
Her true self… what was she really like?
This was no simple question.
As for her own sexual preferences, she was already shaken just because of Chiaki's words…
Suddenly, she felt something soft on her lips.
