Shimotsuki-san Likes the Mob

Shimotsuki told me that I was “special” to her.

I was surprised to hear that, but after thinking about it, I realized that it was only natural.

It’s not natural for me to be special.

She had made a friend out of me. And how can I not be special when I’m her only friend ……?

“I’ve been thinking for a while that you’re too insecure about yourself. …… You’re always so scared and reserved with me, aren’t you? You are my friend, so you should be more relaxed. It makes me a little sad.”

Shimotsuki looked unusually dissatisfied.

Her eyes are wide and her cheeks are puffed out.

I don’t think it’s fair to be cute even in these situations.

“Sorry, sorry …….”

I can’t argue with her. I can barely manage to apologize.

The reason was that Shimotsuki was so cute that I couldn’t help but admire her.

Oh, I see. …… I understand why the protagonist loves this girl so much that he goes crazy.

She is just too cute.

It’s not just the face. No, of course, I think her face is top-notch.

What’s more, this girl has an attractive personality. Maybe it’s because she’s been loved and raised, or maybe it’s because she has a very soft atmosphere. …… I feel very comfortable being next to her.

I’ve never seen a girl like her before.

I can say with confidence that she is a unique person.

I’m sure the main character understands this. He may be cold, but I’m sure Ryuzaki has instinctively smelled Shimotsuki’s charm.

The main character’s eyes must be of good quality.

I thought that because I had been involved with so many girls, I was even more aware of Shimotsuki’s charms.

“I have a little bit of what is commonly referred to as “shyness”. Just a little, really. You see, in my previous life, I was a territorial little animal, and I get nervous when other people look at me, you know?”

Shimotsuki continues to talk.

The talkative girl continued to sing in her lovely voice until I stopped her.

The words were directed only at me, a special person. …… Now, I just wanted to listen to them.

The main heroine’s consciousness could be monopolized by me, a mob character, for now.

I was very happy about that.

“But the strange thing is that Nakayama-kun is the only one who doesn’t get nervous. …… I wondered that from the first time I saw you. No, not when I saw you, but when I heard you. I have a good hearing. …… The sounds that ooze out of you are so interesting that I get carried away.”

As usual, Shimotsuki talks about things with a unique worldview.

It was difficult to understand everything she said. But I tried my best to understand what she said.

“So, now that we’ve become friends, I want to know more and more about you, Nakayama. The more I get to know you, the more the tone changes. …… Every time I talk to you, touch you, or smile at you, the tone echoes. It’s fun, it’s nice, it’s beautiful.”

“…… Tone?”

“Yeah, tone. It’s like a musical instrument. You can’t make a sound by yourself, but if you have a player, you can make beautiful music, right? It’s almost like that. …… I’m your musician. Right now, anyway, I’m trying to figure out what you sound like.”

Then she pecked me on the cheek.

She smiles innocently, as if she were a child playing a prank.

“I want to touch you more. I want to talk to you more. I want to know more about you and get to know you better. …… That’s why I’m your friend. You are the only one who is special to me. You have to understand that, right?”

…… I see. That’s the reason for her closeness to me.

It’s hard to believe, but …… Shimotsuki seems to have a strong interest in me.

To be honest, I didn’t understand half of what she said. Especially the part about the “tone”, there were few parts that I could relate to, and it almost confused me.

But I guess I didn’t need to worry about that.

Anyway, Shimotsuki thinks of me as ‘special’.

“Yeah. I understand. …… Thank you. I feel like I’m being saved.”

That’s what makes me feel so happy…
