Vol 2 Chapter 7 (1/2)
[BOKUs.h.i.+NU V2] CUT 7 – ONE DAY, I’LL EMBRACE YOU. I WON’T GIVE UP
“Sorry. I couldn’t bring myself to go after all. Boooch ☆”
“Huh……………….?”
Two days later, I find myself speechless once I open the notebook.
Argh…you idiot…I set it up such that it was the perfect scenario with Ms. Hinako’s all teary there, and I even said ‘I’ll leave it to you, Hikari Yumesaki (Cutee)’…
“Y-you gotta…be kidding me…”
I searched through my sister’s blog on the phone, and checked on her diary entry yesterday.
She probably wrote something about me yesterday.
Well, that’s not it. She’s definitely shy about it,
“Big brother went to the watermelon field after school and wandered around over there, waving at a house far away and sending kisses over there before returning home…I don’t know what’s he doing at all. He’s been acting weird recently. When he returned home, he was crouched in a corner of his room, messing with his hair, muttering about something.”
“She really can’t go in, huh…?”
Enough with that tongue sticking, dammit…
It’s near the end of September. Having woken up, I sat dejectedly in front of the notebook.
Reality left me extremely dumbfounded, but I continue to read,
“But it’s not like I can do anything about it! Think about it calmly, if I’m going to shout ‘mama♥’ with such a scary face, mama’s going to feel the difference as compare to Hikari’s cuteness when she was alive, and she’ll faint! I need to think about mama’s feelings here. Hikari’s really magnanimous!”
“What are you yapping about…”
“But but! Our eyes met! I saw mama’s eyes through the window! It’s a great improvement! Level up! Chang changggg♪!! Hey, Sakamoto, I’m really amazing, right?”
So what, you idiot…?
“But mama’s a little frailer than before…uuu…who caused it…sobs sobs (Cutee)”
“Isn’t it you…”
Ah whatever. I completely underestimated Hikari Yumesaki.
She completely ruined all my efforts in an instant again. How long is this parent and child pair going to continue torturing me?
It was two days after I revealed everything to Ms. Hinako.
And after revealing everything, I went over to the police station and settled this matter by apologizing profusely. I then wrote down in the diary that Ms. Hinako’s fine, that I revealed everything to her, that she was waiting for Hikari to return, and then I peacefully waited for this day.
And in the end…are you kidding me…
I continue to read the diary dejectedly.
“But this might be a good thing. One day, when Hikari Yumesaki gets stronger, she’ll march forward! Ms. Hinako will surely, surely be waiting for that moment-(CHAARRGEE!!)”
Huh, you’re copying me here!? Even I felt embarra.s.sed reading these words again!
“Tl:dr, I got a lot of issues myself~. Hikari’s a little depressed, but she’s super energetic! Well, you’ll think of something in 30 minutes or something. Thank you☆.”
“Hey, wait…is she going to end it like this…”
I can’t help but let out a sigh, and slump heavily into the chair.
Ahh…looks like I have no choice by to pay a visit to Ms. Hinako today. I wanted to let Hikari Yumesaki hand over the photo alb.u.m her father had requested to give, but I’m really an idiot. Well, Ms. Hinako will probably laugh and say something like ‘I really have to hand it to her’.
Well, in a certain sense, it fits her style. She’s idiotic and strong, but she’s actually a crybaby, gutless, and still unable to continue forward. Whatever, maybe it doesn’t matter. One day, when she gets stronger, Hikari Yumesaki will move forward…
“…d.a.m.n it.”
I felt unsatisfied, and then, my thoughts paused.
Hm? There seems to be something else written on the diary.
“Anyway, Sakamoto, how did you know Hikari’s a sucker for tsunderes?”
What? What are you saying?
“Teehehee. Well, I caused you all sorts of trouble this time! I’ll reward you well!”
So the reward’s the main point here. Hm? Reward? Is she going to send me on another wild goose chase?”
“Switch on the computer now!”
“The computer, huh?”
Looks like she intends to tell me the answer straight away. I got dragged along by her various hints the last time, and then I managed to get a confession out of this super long detour. Looks like it’s something that can be expressed directly this time.
Feeling grouchy, I switch on the computer, and then,
…………………………………………………………………………….

“ARRRGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!”
Once I saw the desktop wallpaper, I screamed.
Wait, wait a sec, wait a second!
Eh, h-how!? I didn’t say anything here!! Why was it revealed!!??
“Don’t tell me”
I hurriedly fish out my cellphone, and check through the previous day’s inbox.
Over there was a message Misaki sent to me.
“h.e.l.lo, Senpai, are you feeling alright? You haven’t been to the shop recently. There’s still excess ice cream. Are you coming? I really miss you”
Hm, whatever. Ever since she showed her true personality, even though she does say that she wants to meet me, it’ll just cause me to hate my cute charm as a virgin, but it doesn’t matter now. The important thing now is the content of the message.
“Speaking of which, are there any developments between you and the girl you like? You want to pat her head and embrace it real tightly, right? I do remember you saying that the girl always says the word ‘virgin’, calling you ‘Bakatsuki’. Hoho, now I’ve a slight urge of wanting to be her friend, so introduce her to me next time.”
This message was sent to me the previous day.
Do you guys understand what this means?
The me yesterday. The me, yesterday.
Now, let’s get back on the prior topic.
First, I look at the desktop background.
