I’m Having Trouble With a High School Girl I Meet on the Commuter Train Who for Some Reason Has Take

After Otomizu left, I finished cleaning up and was relaxing.

Then I received a phone call from Yuika.

“Good evening, Onii-San.”

“Yo, Yuika.”

“How’s your room?”

“Perfect.”

“Perhaps, are you trying to flag it as a failure?”

“Unfortunately, that flag has already been broken.”

“You don’t say.”

Most likely, Yuika would think that I picked it out all by myself and gave my a strange look.

Too bad.

It’s different this time.

I immediately took a picture of my new room and sent it to Yuika.

Then she said, “Hmmm.”

“It’s amazing. I didn’t know you could change so much with a display rack.”

“I suppose so. You seem to be surprised at how serious I am.”

“Yeah. I was honestly surprised.”

Actually, it was thanks to Otomizu’s advice, but I’d take the credit here.

Yuika usually made fun of me.

It wouldn’t hurt to show off once in a while.

Then Yuika asked, as if it was natural.

“So, who gave you the advice?’

“How did you find out?”

“Why did you think I wouldn’t find out?”

She saw through my ruse in a second.

I never thought that my wits, like Zhuge Liang, the hero of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, would be so easily broken. …

Yuika … a high school girl.

“I’ll be honest, I ran into my junior at the furniture store and she gave me a little advice.”

“A little?”

“Yeah, a little.”

“So what really happened?”

“I followed my junior’s advice and laid it out exactly as she said.”

“I see. That makes sense.”

一A woman who would not tolerate even an ounce of vanity, … Yui Hana.

Are you a demon?

Yuika, on the other hand, proceeded with a tone of sincere relief.

“I’m glad. I was worried that you might have hit your head on a tofu slab because of your sudden improved sense of taste.”

“Isn’t that a little odd, the way you worry?”

In the mind of Yuika, I was already established as someone with no sense of style, it seemed.

Unnunu …

Yuika got me again this time, but next time …, why am I thinking of a line like I am some sort of small fry character …?

“I mean. If you and your junior talked about the layout of your room, why didn’t you invite her to your room?”

“Look. I know you are under the impression that I’m a coward.”

“Yeah.”

“Don’t say it so easily.”

“I think everyone who knows Onii-San would agree.”

“Seriously?”

“Yes, I’m serious.”

Good grief~. As I thought, Yuika still didn’t understand my masculinity.

But it couldn’t be helped. She was a high school girl.

Be Surprised, Yuika.

Fufufu~. I win this time!

“I actually had dinner in my room with my junior. She made me beef stew.”

“Astounding. This is what I mean by ‘change.’ “

“You know, the beef stew was a heavenly surprise.”

Nevertheless, inviting a woman to one’s room for a meal seemed kind of cool.

It was a common situation in dramas.

This would be acceptable to Yuika.

About time I got rid of the stigma of being a coward.

“So Have you reached the finish line with your junior?”

""

“No, we had dinner and then she left.”

“Without doing anything?”

“Yeah, She just went home like a normal person.”

Yuika became speechless for a moment, and after a generous pause, continued talking.

“… so pathetic, I’m speechless.”

“Don’t talk to me like that, it really hurts.”

Hey, I’m an adult, too. I’m a little sad that I had to leave her after having a meal with a woman I’m attracted to in my room.

But you know what?

Not long ago, I was in charge of training Otomizu.

But I didn’t think it would be a good idea for us to have such a relationship as soon as we were on different teams.

In any case, Otomizu’s feelings came first, so it wasn’t up to me to do anything about it.

“Hey, hey.”

I don’t know whether she sensed my complicated state of mind or not, but Yuika changed the tone of her voice.

“What’s wrong?”

“I want to come to your room too.”

I wanted to listen to Yuika’s request, but I was dealing with a high school girl.

As expected, there was no way that I, a working adult, could just call her up and ask her to come over.

I should just turn her down softly.

“I know you want to see my cool room …”

“Waiting for a Tsukkomi?”

“I just wanted to say. I didn’t mean that, but it’s indeed a bit of a stretch to let a high school girl in. …”

“It’s just out of curiosity, okay?”

I don’t know if I’d call it curiosity.

Hmmm. What should I do? …….

I’m afraid that if I refuse, I’m going to get bullied, so I might as well just go along with the story as I see fit.

She’ll forget about it soon anyway.

“Well… If I get the chance.”

“It’s a promise.”

Hah~, tomorrow I’ll be in this room working on the computer with Kaedezaka.

Please, don’t let anything happen. ……
