The Losing Heroine Dumped by Her Shady Childhood Friend Will Definitely Win as Long as I’m Around!

Chapter 24: What I Want to Do With Her

Today I had a date with Chinatsu-chan.

Even on a date, I did my routine every morning. I did some light studying, some light muscle training, and a quick news check. The rainy season had not ended yet, but today was a sunny day, and the temperature was said to be over 30 degrees Celsius.

Ill have to make sure I hydrate frequently. I should also take care of Chinatsu-chans physical condition.

I added the information to the date plan I had created in my brain.

Is there any bed hair? Are there any wrinkles on my clothes? I carefully checked my appearance before going out.

Areh, Onii, are you going out now?

Before I could say anything else, my younger sister discovered me.

Ah, Onii-chan is going on a date.

Hmph. Have a nice day.

My sister disappeared across the hallway, seemingly uninterested. But then she returned with a thud and terrific speed.

Onii, you have a girlfriend!?

What? Ah, yeah. I got one recently.

I havent heard anything about it!?

Come to think of it, didnt I report it? Well, Chinatsu-chan said she wanted to keep it a secret, and my family was no exception.

Hmm, Im glad you gave up on your unrequited love . Your sister is glad you realize there are other girls out there.

A sister who goes out of her way to mimic crying and be happy. Thats a funny statement from a sisters point of view, you know?

Who said I got another girl? I told you that the woman I love hasnt changed.

Eh, so the other party is Chinatsu-chan-senpai?

Oops. I got so worked up that I let it slip out.

Well, I guess family is an exception to the rule of secrecy, right?. Yes

Thats right, Im dating Chinatsu-chan. Please keep this between us.

My sister dropped in surprise.. I think your reaction is too exaggerated, no?

. seriously?

Im serious.

Are you talking about a dream?

You want me to pinch your cheeks?

Shes such a rude sister.

If I had to deal with her any longer, I would be late for the meeting. I put on my shoes and put my hand on the front door.

Ah, Onii. Tell this to Chinatsu-chan senpai when you see her. Thank you for making my brother a decent man.

Im going

So, from whose point of view were those words?

To make up for the time I had wasted, I ran in the heat, too hot for this time of year.

*****

Again, I was the first to arrive at the meeting place. It was worth the run.

Masa-kun!? Whats wrong, youre all sweaty.

Soon after, Chinatsu-chan arrived.

I had run in high temperatures and humidity. It was easy to imagine that I would be sweating, but I couldnt slow down because I didnt want to make her wait for me.

Ahaha Im sorry, I turned into a sweaty man even though it was a long-awaited date.

Dont worry about it. Lets go somewhere to cool off and have something to drink.

The date suddenly started with a break. My date plan in my brain went haywire right away.

But thanks to that, I should say. Even though it had been so awkward, I was able to talk with Chinatsu-chan as usual.

Chinatsu-chan

What is it?

That skirt is the one you bought when we went on our last date. Just as I thought, it really suits you, Chinatsu-chan, and you look cute in it.

.Thank you.

Chinatsu-chan blushed. There was no awkwardness, and she smiled cutely.

We took a break at a nearby coffee shop. The air-conditioning and iced coffee restored all my energy.

All right! Lets go, Chinatsu-chan!

Masa-kun, youre so excited.

Thats right. I couldnt sleep at night because I couldnt wait for our date.

Chinatsu-chan looked embarrassed by my straightforward words.

I was also really looking forward to todays date, too.

Chinatsu-chan stared at me as she said that. Her ears were red.

Un. Lets have a lot of fun today.

ThisIs it possible?

Initially, I thought it would be good if todays date could improve the awkward relationship between me and Chinatsu-chan.

But it was no exaggeration to say that my initial goal has already been achieved.

On the contrary, I even felt that Chinatsu-chan was trying to get closer to me.

Wouldnt this mean that I could kiss Chinatsu-chan again? It may even be possible to deepen our relationship even more today.

The thought of it made me feel full of energy. Men were cash animals.

(T/N: A cash person/animal is someone who easily changes his or her assertions and attitude based on whether he or she is willing to lose or gain, in other words, on the basis of profit or loss.)

On the way to the intended station, I casually tried to hold Chinatsu-chans hand.

!?

The moment I touched her hand, Chinatsus body shook as if she had received an electric shock. Bikuu!

The magnitude of the reaction made me pull my hand back, too.

I-Im sorry Um, I was surprised

No, no, Im sorry. If you suddenly touch me, Id be surprised too

For some reason, thats all I managed to squeeze out.

Deep down inside, I was shocked that Chinatsu-chan rejected me. But I couldnt show my hurt expression in front of her. I smiled and walked in front of her.

Now that was my fault. I got carried away and tried to touch Chinatsu-chan, thinking it would be okay.

Even though she may not have fully digested what happened when I kissed her forcibly yet, .

I-Im sorry! Its not Its not that, Masa-kun.

Suddenly, my arm was pulled and I stopped in my tracks.

When I looked, Chinatsu-chan looked like she was about to cry and was holding my arm.

Its not that I dont like it I was just surprised because Im not used to it I love you, Masa-kun.

(T/N: Must protect Chinatsu)

She tightened her hold on my arm.

Masa-kun? Are you angry?

No,

Chinatsu-chan and I couldnt make eye contact.

That and the two big fruits that I could feel on my arms as she hugged me were the reason I couldnt show her the expression on my face.

what I do to you, Chinatsu-chan. If youre shy, feel free to say no.

Yeah. But? I want to do my best too. So, Masa-kun, if theres anything you want to do, dont hesitate to tell me, okay?

I want to hold hands with you, Chinatsu-chan.

Un. I also .want to hold hands with you, Masa-kun.

My arm was released. Then we timidly held hands.

For some reason, I felt more nervous walking hand in hand with her than kissing her.

(T/N: Like its said, Holding hands more lewd than kissing)

However, the time spent in silence with Chinatsu-chan somehow became less awkward.
