After Being Betrayed by My Girlfriend, I Kiss Her Little Sister - Chapter 39

Together (2)

Hina’s POV

Around midnight, I wake up next to Kanata.

Come to think of it…I’m sure I took off my pants before going to sleep, so why am I still wearing them now? Also, the buttons on my shirt—it seems like Kanata put my pants on and buttoned my shirt while I was sleeping.

Pervert…

“…!”

The spot where that person hit me still hurts.

The pain brings back memories of what happened, it’s really scary. I really want to forget it, but I can’t.

“……”

However, right now, Kanata is beside me…I’m really happy.

We used to sleep together like this all the time when we were little, but it seems like Kanata still hasn’t gotten used to it. I’m the only one who cherishes the memories from back then. Even though we are high school students now, Kanata is still Kanata, and I’m still me…so I want to snuggle up with Kanata like we did when we were little. It feels so warm and comforting—

I want his scent and warmth.

It can’t be anyone else, it has to be Kanata…

At that moment, I got a message from Mom.

‘Are you sleeping?’

She must’ve messaged be because of what happened at school, so I call her right away.

I want to know what happened too.

‘Hina?’

‘Yeah, Mom.’

‘I read the message you sent, and I also spoke with your teacher at school. First of all…how are you feeling? Are you okay?’

‘Yeah, I think I’m fine…’

‘Good. I sent you a message because I want to talk to you about Kazuma Saito. In short, he is going to be expelled. So you don’t have to worry anymore.’

‘I see…’

‘But why did you go with him? Can I ask the reason…?’

‘……’

The reason…before I can even think about it, my body moves on its own.

I was worried he might do something to Kanata again, so I planned to record everything he said as evidence. Kanata is my everything, if anyone tries to mess with him again, I won’t forgive them. This time…I’m going to be the one to protect Kanata.

Just like Rio said, Kanata isn’t the kind of person who would do something like that.

I want to believe that. Because he’s always so kind to me…Kanata is such a gentle person.

As I thought…I really love Kanata…

Just hearing his name is enough to make me follow that person without a second thought…that’s how much I love him. Honestly, I’m such an idiot.

I just want to be happy with Kanata…

‘Hina? What’s wrong?’

‘No, it’s nothing…I just thought…that person might mess with Kanata again…’

‘I see. It’s because you love Kanata, right? I also heard from your junior, Kikuchi, but don’t push yourself too hard.’

‘Yeah. I’m sorry for the trouble…even though you’re so busy, Mom.’

‘What are you talking about? I’d do anything for you, Hina. I even called the police today…I’ll never forgive that person for what he did to my precious daughter…’

‘Thank you…I’ll be more careful next time.’

‘Okay…’

‘Good night, Mom.’

‘Good night, Hina.’

I put my smartphone on the floor and gently stroke Kanata’s head.

With this, I’ve taken care of one problem…it was really dangerous, though…

Now, Kitagawa Umi. What should I do to make you suffer…that’s all I’ve been thinking about. My three years—no, even more that, you took that away from me. I wanted to know why you did such a thing…but the day I saw with my own eyes what you did to Kanata, I gave up on trying to understand you.

I will never forgive you.

Kanata has given up everything for me…I don’t believe he ever truly hated me.

That’s why I held his hand in front of everyone back then.

He is mine. From the moment I was born, he has always been by my side…he has spent so much time with me. He is my precious treasure. Kitagawa Umi…you’re just a nuisance.

“……”

After drinking some water in the kitchen, I gaze up at the pitch-black night sky for a while.

I keep blaming myself for being so foolish.

I knew that Saito was always looking at me…I should’ve thought things through more calmly.

Seriously, I’m such an idiot…

“Hah…”

After letting out a sigh, I return to my room.

Then, I stand there, looking at Kanata as he sleeps on the bed.

Even though I’m right in front of him, he’s sleeping soundly, completely unaware of my presence.

“So cute…”

“……”

“Fufu.”

It’s getting late, I should get back to sleep.

I casually take off my pants and unbutton my shirt in front of Kanata. I like wearing matching loungewear with Kanata, but I love feeling his warmth even more. When we were kids, I would casually sneak my hands under Kanata’s clothes. Kanata was so surprised every time I did it. It was really cute.

Right now…

“Ugh…”

He’s asleep anyway, so I quietly slip my hand under his shirt.

Uwaa, Kanata’s body is so firm…completely different from mine.

But why doesn’t Kanata do anything to me…? Could it be that…I’m not attractive to him?

Kanata…

Or maybe it’s because we’re childhood friends that he can’t see me as a romantic interest?

I want to ask, but I’m too scared to.

“…ohh.”

When I place my palm on Kanata’s chest, I can feel his heartbeat.

Then, unable to hold myself back, I hug Kanata tightly. He uses the same shampoo and body wash as me, so he smells just as nice. I love him so much…I wish this moment can last forever. I want to stay like this forever.

You’re mine…Kanata♡

“……”

But I feel like something is missing. Looking at Kanata who is sleeping soundly, I find myself holding my breath for some reason…

We’ve already kissed before…there’s no need to get all worked up about something like this.

Yeah…Kanata promised he’d never leave me—

“……”

Chuu.

“……”

In the quiet room, I gently kiss Kanata on the lips.

Afterwards, I hug him tightly.

Even though I’m only wearing my shirt over my underwear, I feel so warm…and incredibly embarrassed.

“Let’s go to sleep…”
