About The Case When I Started Living With A Cool Goddess-Sama, But Because Of Being Too Spoiled, She Ended Up Becoming A Clumsy Useless Person. - Chapter 4.5: Goddess-Sama Vs. Childhood Friend. (Part 5)

Goddess-Sama Vs. Childhood Friend. (Part 5)

In other words, there was currently a half-naked Mikoto-san hiding in the room. If anyone saw the half-naked Mikoto-san, wearing only a bra on the upper half of her body, they would definitely misunderstand the situation.

However, Mikoto-san’s figure did not immediately come into view after the door opened.

I wondered where she had gone. I wondered, but I soon realized.

Her clothes were soaked and she had taken them off, but her blanket and futon were still there. So, it seemed that she was hiding under the blankets.

However, it was blatantly unnatural. It was… that the futon was laid out in the back room, even though Amane-nee san was not even here.

Moreover, since one girl was hiding in there, there was also an unnatural bulge in the blanket. It was not logical in the normal sense of the word. I thought about how to make an excuse here, but I couldn’t come up with any good ideas.

And there was something even worse.

“…What’s that?”

Kaho asked me. She  points to a wet T-shirt on the floor.

It was the one Mikoto-san had just taken off. There was no way for me to get out of this now.

At that moment, Mikoto-san sneezed cutely and coughed in succession.

Earlier, she had only made a small sneeze through the sliding shoji door. But this time, the sound was clearly audible.

Kaho looked shocked.

“I heard, just now, a girl’s voice.”

“It’s your imagination.”

“I definitely heard it. from under the blanket on the futon…”

Kaho indicated the blanket with her finger.

I stepped in between her and the futon and said, 

“Like I said, it’s really nothing. There are a lot of things in a high school boy’s house that he doesn’t want to be seen.”

“This is Amane-nee san’s room, right?”

“I’m the only one in the house right now.”

“That’s a lie. There is a girl in this room, isn’t there?”

“No, there isn’t.”

“Are you lying to me?”

“I’m not lying.”

“Haruto, you must be doing something wrong to even hide things from me.”

“No way. I’m not doing anything wrong.”

“Then, can you tell me who’s there?”

I couldn’t say anything back, so I shut up.

Kaho had already noticed that there was a girl in the futon.

But if I didn’t let her pass, at least I could hide the fact that it was my classmate, Mikoto-san.

However, Kaho quickly passed by me.

Dang it.

I tried to stop her, but there was no time.

She took away the blanket.

And there, of course, was Mikoto-san.

She was shivering, a girl wearing only a bra on her upper body and only shorts on the lower half of her body, looking defenseless.

Mikoto-san looked at me with a frightened expression, as if she was relying on me to do something.

But there’s nothing I can do for her now.

Kaho said.

“Mikoto Rei-san , right? Our classmate, the goddess.”

“I am not a goddess.”

Mikoto Rei said in a voice that sounded as if she was about to disappear in the air.

Kaho asked her again.

“Why are you wearing only your underwear?”

“That’s…”

“You were going to do something naughty with Haruto?”

A misunderstanding, as I had expected.

I looked up to the heavens.

Before I could utter an excuse, Kaho looked back at me.

“Is this what you meant when you say you want to ‘do things’ so you’re skipping school?”

“No, that’s not it.”

“I knew you wanted to do something naughty like this, Haruto.”

“Like I said, you have got it wrong.”

“Not only with me, but anyone as long as they’re pretty. Mikoto-san, she’s a beautiful girl, isn’t she? She has big breasts too.”

“No, it’s not that. Mikoto-san has a cold, and I’m taking care of her…”

“Then tell me, why is she in her underwear?”

I was at a loss for words when Kaho asked me about it. I glanced at Mikoto-san and saw that the shoulder straps of her bra were slightly out of place, which startled me.

Kaho glared at me, looking more and more unhappy.

“You are looking at her with lewd eyes…”

“I-I didn’t.. The thing is, Mikoto-san spilled a glass of water and was in the middle of changing her clothes, so I have nothing to feel guilty of.”

“If that’s the case, why did you try to hide the fact that Mikoto-san was here? Isn’t it because you were doing ecchi stuff with Mikoto-san?”

“Because if you were to find out, you would misunderstand me like you are doing now.”

“To begin with, why is Mikoto-san even in this place? Did you bring her in to do ecchi things with her?”

“No way.”

I would never do such a thing.

But I can’t really explain why a girl from my class is currently in my house. If I told her I was living with her, she would misunderstand me even more.

Mikoto-san said she didn’t want people to misunderstand that she and I were having an unusual relationship. For Mikoto-san’s sake, I need to come up with some good reason to explain to Kaho.

But I can’t think of anything at all. Why is a beautiful girl who’s a classmate of mine in my house half-naked… There is no way I can–

But things took an unexpected turn. Mikoto-san interrupted.

“You see, I live in this house.”

Both Kaho and I froze in surprise at Mikoto-san’s words.

Mikoto-san said she didn’t want people to misunderstand her relationship with me. And yet, she simply told Kaho that she was living with me.

Her face was red from the fever, but her voice was loud and clear.

“Akihara-kun did nothing wrong. It was all my fault. It was me who spilled a glass of water and took off my clothes. It was me who said I wanted to live in this house. I am the one who is spoiled by Akihara-kun. I’m not sure if it’s a good idea to have a new house or not… He never did anything naughty to me and was very kind to me. I was so happy that he even missed school today just to take care of me.”

Kaho’s eyes widened and she was in a state of shock. Not caring about her, Mikoto-san continued.

“Akihara-kun helped me when I was being attacked… He cooked for me and helped me when I was shaking cold. Since I came to his house, Akihara-kun has helped me a lot. It is not true that he brought me here just to have sex with me.”

Unlike when she was facing me directly, Mikoto’s voice was gentle as she spoke about me to Kaho.

Puzzled, Kaho fell silent, and then, perhaps thinking of changing the subject, she said,

“A-anyways, dry yourself off and I’ll go get you some fresh underwear. It would be better if I, as a girl, do that rather than you, Haruto, right?”

But Mikoto shook her head.

“I’m fine. I’ll have Akihara-kun do that too.”

“W-Why!?”

“I trust that Akihara-kun will not do anything strange. Besides, this is mine and Akihara-kun’s. It is not your house, Sasaki-san.”

Mikoto-san said, turning her blue eyes straight to Kaho.
