Meshitaki Onna ni Yakuza no Ai wa Omosugiru

13. Communicating in two voices

 

The doorbell chime faded to silence.

 

My heart pulsed furiously in my chest.

For the doorbell to ring at this timing, I can only have a bad feeling!

No, but maybe, it could be a newspaper salesman dropping by coincidentally……

 

DING DONG DING DONG DING DONG DING DONG

 

「Hey, get the hell outー!」

 

「As if it could be a newspaper salesman……!」

I crumpled.

 

Are you serious, are you really serious.

Or rather, this voice, isn’t it Kawata-san……?

 

The door was pounded on violently.

And, the doorbell was rung without pause.

 

Eh, what should I do……

 

Rather, if I just stay like this and don’t come out, they’ll completely perceive I’m pretending to be away.

Plus it’s Kawata-san. He has a stern face, but when he eats his cheeks are slack and curved up, and he asks for a lot of seconds…… In short, he’s a good person.

And I want to know the particulars of the cries from before……

 

Reaching my conclusion, I timidly approached the doorway.

 

Uwah, the door looks like it’ll be totally broken down.

Just in case, after affixing the chain lock, I opened the door a crack with timing in mind.

If I opened it with poor timing, I would lose to the power of force when he hit.

 

He seemed to realize the door was open as well, the door pounding and his shouts halted instantaneously.

But, as if he remembered something right after, he loudly yelled「hurry and come out!」

He mercilessly barraged the doorbell.

 

When I secretly peeked through the thin crack of the open door, Kawata-san looked this way with a fierce look.

 

「Nee-chan, get out already!!!」

（You bastard, why did you show up!）

 

After yelling loudly, he chided in a very small voice.

Rather, Kawata-san! Blood, you’re bleeding! From your bald scalp, it‘s trickling downー!!!!

 

「Hurry and open up!!」

（Hurry and close the door, take a shitty nap!）

 

（Kawata-san, blood, you’re bleeding! Are you alright? What happened!?）

While fretting, I also replied in a whisper.

 

「Bastard, we know you’re in there!」

（It’s nothing! More importantly, don’t come out so stupidly! You hear, no matter what happens from now on, you better not come out!）

 

（But, blood! Bloodー!）

 

「Don’t fuck around! You bitch!」

（Don’t come out no matter what, capiche!? If you come out I’ll kill you!）

 

Immediately after hissing, Kawata-san kicked the door with all his strength.

With that force, the door closed in an instant. 1

As if wanting to guarantee I couldn’t open the door from now on, he incessantly kicked the door.

 

Eh, what to do……

Should I do as Kawata-san says and lie low?

But, blood was coming out from Kawata-san’s head, and there was a dreadful bruise on his cheek……

 

While I was in a fluster on the inner side of the door, I thought I heard a loud tch-ing and felt the presence of the person outside leaving.

Then soon after, the sound of the neighboring door opening and closing.

 

With this, I can be peaceful now……

 

When I thought so, the next moment, once again sounding from the next door room, a remarkable DONGARAGASSHAーN! 2 , and someone’s groan.

 

――Wh-wh-wh, what should I do!!!?

 

 

If it’s not really clear why it closed, the way I imagine it is that he kicked it, then bounced back because it couldn’t open (because it was chain-locked) and closed that way. Basically just a lot of sound at once. DON / GARA GARA / SHAAN!
