Chapter 9

Even if it’s no longer with a pumpkin, they’ve made a connection

My body was stiff. (Sleep Paralysis)

Unable to move.

“……”

It looks like I’m in a bit of a bind right now. I don’t know if I’m awake now or if I’m dreaming, I, for some reason, really can’t move my body so I’m having trouble. Someone please help me.

“……”

As expected, calling for help wouldn’t work. Even if I could scream, help would never come because I am the only one in the house in the first place.

Is this how it ends? Is it a dead end for me now, or is there something I can do?

“……”

Yeah, maybe I should just give up.

It was pitch black in front of me, my body was as immobile as ever, and I was in quite the hopeless situation, but then I heard a voice.

“It will be okay, Hayato-kun.”

“It’s fine, Hayato-kun.”

This voice belongs to…

Although it should have been impossible, the voice definitely belonged to the Shinjo sisters. I desperately tried to move my numb lips to ask for help from this situation…

Please, help me!!

“Of course.”

“Yes.”

Hands that must have belonged to both of them then touched my body. It was as if they were gently caressing me, trying to calm me down.

But the thing is, despite the reassuring hand movements they were doing… for some reason there’s a sense of fear clinging to my body.

“It will be okay. Hayato-kun, you can wallow in us.”

“That’s right. Then all of us will be happy… together forever.”

Their hands then touched me at “that” fragile place and whispered to me what they wanted me to do. As I felt their breath directly in my ear, I immediately woke up with a huff.

“……?”

I kicked the quilt as hard as I could, then sat up and took a deep breath.

But the moment I became calm, I suddenly felt embarrassed. The reason was simple: girls from my school suddenly appeared in my dream and did naughty stuff to me.

“…Is it frustration?”

I didn’t see their figures, but I did hear their voices clearly.

Which seemingly makes me even more excited that… not good, stop it, I, that’s impossible.

I shook my head to fight off the fantasy that was floating around in my mind.

“Arisa and Aina… they were…”

.

.

.

I met the two of them last night and we talked about a lot of things.

I really didn’t expect Aina to recognize me back then, especially when she said she recognized me because of my speech and height… While I did indeed see where she was coming from… I was quite scared at the fact that she knew it was me just from that.

After that, I also started calling Arisa by her name, which further led to me calling both of them by their first names, without honorifics.

“… Hah.”

Although I’m not in any kind of trouble, I’m honestly happy to be acquainted with two beautiful girls. Well, at least for me, because I am a man and a high school boy in puberty.

“Our mother would love to meet you. Please let me invite you to our house on the next holiday.”

“Yes-yes. Hayato-kun is very welcomed. I even hope you’ll let me entertain you in a big way.”

And probably even the boys from my class, and if those boys who have feelings for these girls found out about that meeting, they would, without a doubt, drown me in the ocean as fast as possible…

Well, from the point of view of the sisters, I’m the one who saved them from such a horrifying experience, so in a way, they probably just think of me as a little bit special. Things will eventually go back to the way they’ve always been. I’m sure of it.

“All right, let’s get ready.”

It’s the first Monday of the week, the day when I am least excited, but well, I’m a student so it can’t be helped.

.

.

.

The words they said when we parted yesterday, “See you tomorrow,” bothered me, but there was no point in worrying about it too much now.

I’m finally done getting ready, this house sure is a bit too big and quiet for one person to live in…

“I’m off.”

I knew a reply won’t come back to me, but this is how it has always been. It’s been a natural thing to do for me now, a habit that has become ingrained in me.

I put my bag on my shoulder and walked down the street as usual.

Then, while I was passing by the Shinjo family’s house.

“… Ah.”

“… Ah!”

“… Masta— cough, Hayato-kun.”

Just then two girls came out of the front door of the house.

Aina noticed me first, followed by Arisa, who also noticed me and then instantly ran to me. I immediately looked away so that I wouldn’t see her large b*****s, covered by her uniform, sway as she ran.

“Good morning, Hayato-kun.”

“Good morning, Hayato-kun!”

“… Good morning, you two.”

Thinking back, this is probably the first time we talked in the morning in front of their house like this. Up until now, we have only exchanged a few words. But I guess if we get to know each other in this way more, we will have a chance to talk more often.

“This is probably the first time we’ve met here ever since I’ve known you as Hayato-kun, right?”

“I guess so. We don’t see each other most of the time.”

They are probably always out at the same time, and I basically change my timing depending on my mood. So sometimes we meet, and far more often we don’t. Well, as I said before, even if we did meet, we never had a conversation. Other than a few greetings.

“……”

“Arisa?”

“It’s nothing.”

No, but you were…

When I called out to Arisa, her body jerked all of a sudden. Is she all right? Seeing her Squirm her hips like that, I wondered if she wanted to go to the washroom. But I knew that these were the things that I, as a Man, shouldn’t point out, thus I’ll be quiet.

“…Cough, sorry about that.”

“It’s true. Nee-san doesn’t have much self control.”

“I don’t want to hear that coming from someone such as you Aina…”

Erm…?

After the exchange of the sisters that I didn’t understand even a bit, they then both looked straight at me. Arisa stared at me with cool eyes as always, while Aina smiled and looked happy as always.

“You’re not going?” [Hayato]

“? We will” [Arisa]

“We are?” [Aina]

“Okay!” [Hayato]

“Yes.” [Arisa]

“Un.” [Aina]

……

The three of us just stood there without moving. I was kinda confused, so I just asked them.

“Would you like to come with me?”

“Of course.”

“Yes.”

Ah, as I thought.

I then started walking and they also started moving their feet.

Arisa lined up on my left and Aina on my right, both were matching my strides. Aina then said,

“-Halfway through. Like you said before, you don’t want some rumor to be made right?”

It is really hard to say that out of the blue, as if I don’t like the company. I actually don’t mind being gossiped about, but I don’t like the idea of being thought of as having bad feelings toward the two of them. However, Aina seems to have known exactly what I thought.

“It’ll be fine, we won’t do anything that will inconvenience you, Hayato-kun. Neither would Nee-san, right?”

“Of course. So don’t worry, okay?”

I knew Aina would say that since I have talked to her to some extent already, but it was a little surprising to hear that Arisa, who is known as that cool beauty, agreed and smiled at what Aina said.

What the heck, so she smiles at boys as well.

“Aina aside, I’m surprised to see Arisa’s smile. I had heard rumors that she hates men.”

Welp, looks like I was one of those who believed that hoax.

There are just some things you can understand about people only after you talk to them. I felt like I got to know Arisa a little better.

“You’re right, I admit that I’m a little bit of a man hater… I’ll answer if they talk to me, but that’s about it. If anything, Aina is worse than me though.”

“Is that so?”

Actually I thought Aina wasn’t that particularly concerned about those things.

I looked at her as she grinned and gave a smile that was quite scary.

“If you ask me if I like them or not, I don’t like them. I think all guys except Hayato should just disappear… though that was a joke, so don’t take it seriously, okay?”

“I know.”

Despite that, I think I felt a serious undertone on her voice earlier but eh.

Just please don’t say things like anyone but me or anything like that. I’m becoming a little nervous, you know? What will you do if I make a grave mistake, which is common among students?

Well, in Aina’s case, I’m sure she’ll just laugh it off.

“Is there anything else you’d like to ask us? Anything you want, like our three sizes?”

“I’m not listening—”

“Nee-san, Hayato-kun is asking for your three sizes.”

“I’m good. From the top, 88, 57—”

“Arisa!”

“… Pfft… Ahahaha!”

Aside from Aina, who is laughing hysterically holding her belly, why is Arisa answering so stupidly serious? I told her to stop and she stopped her words at once, but then she just stared at me and didn’t seem to know what was wrong with what she did…

Could it be that Arisa is actually quite an airhead?

“Aa~a, it’s fun to tease you, Hayato-kun.”

“…don’t do that, it’s bad for my heart.”

“When did it stop?”

“… Eh?”

I just turned my attention to Arisa again.

She continued her words as nonchalantly as ever, without a hint of embarrassment.

“Hayato-kun, you know what size clothes to wear, right?”

“? Aah.”

“You know the size because it’s yours, right?”

“Yeah…?”

“So I don’t see anything wrong with that.”

“What does that mean?” I had a tsukkomi in my mind.

Arisa and I were engaged in a subtle but irreconcilable conversation,

Though if we were any slower, we’d actually be late for school. And that’s even more bad since we’re still quite far away from reaching it.

So we proceeded to chat with each other while walking for some distance, and from there we headed to school separately.

“… Why do I feel exhausted all of a sudden?”

With a small sigh I muttered to myself.
