Chapter 14: 14

Juumonji Risa wants him to pick

Time passed and a cold season arrived.

My mental age is supposed to be more or less 30 already. Time sure flies faster when you’re young.

It’s been 4 months since Takeru treated me to ice cream but it felt like a blink of an eye.

Time is such a cruel mistress.

.
.

……rather, I’ve lived for 30 years and I’m still a virgin?

.
.

“No, no, I just haven’t gotten serious yet…….”

.
.

Let’s avert my eyes from reality.

The original Hideyori was always spoiled by women, wasn’t he?

He lost his V-card when he was in elementary school right?

Then why am I not popular?

Was it because I didn’t get my ears pierced?

.
.

“…………”

.
.

I shut my eyes and started to ponder.

Should I consult Tatsuyuki-san or Master about this?

The two of them should be quite popular in their own right after all.

.
.

“There’s a letter for you, Hideyori.”

“Thank you, Oba-san.”

.
.

I received a tea-colored envelope from my aunt.

When I cut it open with scissors, I found a letter from StarChild inside.

It’s probably a reply to the fan letter I sent her earlier.

.
.

“Wow!? It came! Amazing! StarChild’s Amazing!”

She even wrote [Dear Akechi Hideyori] on top!

Today’s gonna be amazing!

.
.

She spared her time and replied to letters from her fans every month. Is she a Goddess?

I feel so stupid worrying so much about my virginity now.

.
.

Yamamoto and Nishiyama from my class are probably still virgins too.

There’s nothing strange about being a virgin at all.

.
.

“Hmmm…….let’s see…….”

.
.

‘Thank you as always for your letter. Reading Akechi-san’s letters always gives me courage.’

.
.

“Woah, an idol who actually reads fan letters properly……… I feel like I’m going to fall for her. I mean, I already did but I might do it all over again.”

.
.

The fact that StarChild personally replied to my letter gave me courage too!

It’s a [Courage Spiral]. (TLN: In foreign form)

The words [Courage Spiral] suddenly came out and I actually surprised myself but I’m not particularly bad with foreign words so I’m not going to do the NG gag.

.
.

Moreover, I’ve already received 5 return letters from StarChild.

Does an Idol always personally reply to every fan letter though?

I would feel bad for the other fans if I’m an exception.

Last month, I was surprised when I received a concert ticket in one of her replies. The venue was nearby but I’ve never asked her to send me a free ticket.

I seriously felt sorry for Takeru and Risa for that one……

.
.

“I like you! I love you!! I super love you!”

“………who?”

“…………eh?”

.
.

Emi, Risa, and Takeru entered my room.

Everyone looks at me like they are looking at a piece of garbage…….

…….why?

Rather, why does my aunt always let people into my room without my permission………?

.
.

“Hideyori, sit down.”

“Hideyori-kun, who do you like? You said you love that person right?”

“Akechi-kun, you actually have someone you’re serious about?”

“…….wha, what’s this about? Why are you all looking so serious like that…….?”

.
.

My special moment with StarChild was cut short after I just started reading her letter.

.
.

“Rather, why are you guys here…….?”

.

.

Since they’ve shown up out of nowhere, they’ve seen me screaming alone in my room like some idiot………

.
.

“You said that we should go to the arcade together yesterday right, Hideyori.”

“You did.”

“Hideyori-kun said [If we have free time then let’s go].”

“You did.”

“So let’s go today, Akechi-kun.”

“……..what?”

.
.

No one told me that we would be going today though……

Why does everyone always just barge into my place without telling me first?

Does the thing called ‘plan’ or ‘Appointment’ don’t exist in the world of [Breaking the Chain of Sadness]……..?

.
.

“Anyway, what’s with the envelope here……?”

.
.

Saying so, Takeru picks up the tea-colored envelope I left on the table.

In an instant, Emi and Risa’s gazes immediately focused on it.

.
.

“The handwriting is very feminine isn’t it……when did you get this?”

“Just earlier.”

“From where?”

“In the mail.”

.
.

Takeru was staring at the envelope.

.
.

“No way, my shoe-locker&desk plan failed? To think that they would send it to his mailbox instead…….! Damn it, they got me…….”

“Nii-san!?”

“Hideyori-kun, you made Juumonji-kun cry you know?”

“Wait, what is this about, I can’t keep up.”

.
.

The heck is shoe-locker&desk plan?

Is he talking about his plan to cheat on the test?

If you want to cheat then just write the answer down on some good old eraser.

After that just stick the eraser back into the paper cover and you would get the perfect camouflage.

.
.

“Hideyori!”

“Y, Yes, sir.”

.
.

When Takeru suddenly shouted my name, I switched my posture from sitting cross-legged to seiza.

I don’t really get it but it feels like he’s going to scold me for something.

.
.

“S, Sorry……but if you planned to go to the arcade then you should have told me yesterday. Anyway, we can go n—…..”

“Hideyori, do you like the person who sent you this letter?”

“Ha?”

“Is it true that you love this person?”

“It’s true. I love her.”

“…….”

“…….”

“……”

.
.

The three’s faces turned deep blue.

Arcade trip, test cheating, StarChild’s letter, there’s so much going on that I don’t know what’s happening anymore.

.
.

“Hi, Hideyori-kun……, I……, I………I like you Hideyori-kun.”

“Y, Yeah…….? I like you too, Emi.”

“Ugh…… I’ve never made it clear before but I like you too, Akechi-kun.”

“R, Really………? I like you too, Risa.”

“Hideyori, you bastard……! You’ve got to pick one…….”

“W, What’s up with you guys today……? I also like Takeru you know.”

.
.

The three looked like they wanted to start crying so I patted their back to comfort them.

I still don’t get what’s going on though…….yup, completely clueless over here.

I mean, what’s up with this situation?

.
.

“No, Akechi-kun! You can’t be indecisive like that! You should choose one…….”

“No way……, you guys are not Po**mon alright…….”

“But you should still pick one.”

“Well, I’ve already played Charm**der so let’s go with Squ**tle.”

“What?”

“Po**mon?”

.
.

The 4 of us were out of sync.

I feel like there’s some big misunderstanding between us.

I mean, the atmosphere turned super strange the moment Emi and the others walked into my room after all.

.
.
.
.
.
.

“A letter from StarChild!?”

“Wow!”

“Ehehe, I’m glad Hideyori-kun didn’t fall for someone else.”

.
.

When I told them that it was just a reply letter from StarChild, the Juumonji siblings’ eyes immediately started to sparkle.

.
.

“Seriously………., so you were just screaming about StarChild’s letter on your own? You could have shared the excitement with us, man.”

“S, Sorry, Akechi-kun…….”

“Come on……., this is embarrassing for me alright…….”

.
.

It’s embarrassing being seen screaming ‘I love you, I love you’ all by myself okay.

The shame is on the same level as when my previous life’s parents found a swimsuit issue of a certain magazine in my room.

.
.

“She wrote a lot huh.”

“Give that back! If you want one then you can just send your own fan letters okay!”

.
.

I usually write to her about what’s going on at school so I don’t want my friends to read the contents.

.
.

“Also, what about the arcade?”

.
.

“ “ “ Let’s go! “ “ “

The three replied simultaneously.

Seriously, these guys are always like this.

.
.
.

When I think back on how I didn’t want to get involved with Emi and Takeru at first I have to smile at myself for forgetting about it completely.

.
.

I know it’s a fleeting peace.

The calm before the storm.
.
.

But even though I know that, I still choose to stay with them today as well.
