Chapter 21: What are the triplets trying to tell me?! (2/2)
The start of the school bell resounded and was heard from a long distance, an early summer breeze brushed gently over their bodies as they stood on the rooftop.
Around this time students were probably giving it their all to study within the classroom, or they may be a couple of those students who would drift off to sleep in the middle of class.
Taiyou was different, he was squatting on the floor with his back entrusted to the rooftop fence as three girls are embraced closely in his arms. The triplets as if they became a single being…….leapt at the same time into his arms whilst embracing him at the same time.
They were the prominent beautiful triplets, and they were skipping class going to the rooftop and cuddling Taiyou. The fence he was leaning on, as if telling them “enough is enough” was making creaking sounds as they were putting their whole weight on it.
「Hey guys, is my body temperature high?」
Taiyou opens his mouth and asked the three sisters a question.
「Taiyou-san’s body temperature?」
「I think that it is normal」
「Yeah, its normal…..Ah, but」
「But?」
「The warmth is……..A little different」
「Yeah, when you are holding us like this…….It feels really warm」
「Rather its quite hot」
After finishing their sentences, the three sisters all raised their gazes and looked at Taiyou’s face.
Why are you asking us such things? That’s the kind of face they had.
「A little while ago someone said that to me. They said that my body temperature is really high」
The three sisters stared at each other after hearing what Taiyou said.
「Was it a girl who said it?」
「Ahh, how did you know?」
「That’s cause」
Kotone was speaking and the three sisters had a wry smile on their faces.
「Taiyou-san you have the same face as the time when you first met us」
「A face that was kind of troubled and the kind of face that said “what should I do”」
「However at the same time it’s a slightly happy face」
「Uuu…….」
Taiyou finds himself at a loss for words. He didn’t really know what to think of it himself, and what the girls told him was quite vague.
However, he was beginning to be convinced.
Although most of the things the white girl said was mysterious, maybe he really did have a high body temperature.
「Do you like this person?」
「No, I mean that is—」
「Please don’t put us in the equation」
「Yeah, just think purely using your true feelings, whether you like this person or not」
「That is…..」
Just like the three sisters told him to do, Taiyou began to think about the white girl in his mind.
Her hair which was long enough to reach the back of her knees, looks which were like a pure Japanese girl, white transparent skin. In addition as if she was hiding her beautiful white skin, she wore a black lace dress.
He thought long and hard as to exactly what he thought of her…. however.
「Ah……..」
「What went wrong?」
「I……Haven’t got a hold of her name」
Taiyou finally realized such a thing.
After noticing this, he tried to recall in great detail the first time they met and the events which took place.
He was first overwhelmed with her killing intent, then she wanted to stab him, then he broke her sword.
Then he met her again, she demanded payment, and she touched his face.
After piling up the episodes together, he understood that she was not an ordinary person, she wasan expert in using the sword and was a little strange in her ways of speaking, when he thought about it again, she never really introduced herself and he never really asked for her name either.
「What have you done…….」
「You don’t know the other party’s name」
「And even then you were still anxious about her, right?」
「It’s the kind of situation where you ride on the same train with her to school but never get the courage to approach her, right?」
The three sisters continued to speculate the situation.
Even though they were currently being held in his arms, the three sisters were seemingly able to talk enjoyably about another woman that he was thinking about.
They were not angry or discouraged, more so than that it would seem like they were having fun whilst discussing such an issue.
It felt like, they were children discussing some sort of school trip for tomorrow.
This made Taiyou perplexed.
「Hey guys, aren’t you angry?」
「「「Angry?」」」
「I mean……The fact that I’m thinking about another girl, aren’t you guys bothered? 」
To Taiyou’s question, the three girls smiled like they were prepared for the question.
How can they laugh in such a carefree manner, this made Taiyou perplexed/confused.
「Umm, You didn’t hear our previous exchange with each other so you probably would think like this」
「Koto-chan that’s not really correct, even if he heard our conversation, at most he would probably understand half of what we said」
「I guess, since we were mainly communicating using our thoughts」
Hearing the three girls talk amongst themselves, Taiyou became even more confused.
If he didn’t hear their conversation he would have no idea, and even if he did listen to what they were saying, he probably couldn’t catch the complete meaning. Because he wasn’t there when they conversed he was becoming more clueless.
Seeing such a Taiyou, the three sisters slipped out of his arms with a smile on their faces.
「「「It was our, childhood dream to make a harem!」」」
They all talked at the same wavelength, without faltering in the slightest as they declared their ambitions.
