After Capturing and Confining a Beautiful Yandere Stalker Girl, I Somehow Started a Sweet Life With Her - 8

Chapter 8: This Is Confinement…?

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

Although I was suffering from a headache right after waking up, I somehow managed to get dressed and head to the university. My house was only three minutes away by foot from the campus. As soon as I stepped out of my apartment, I could immediately see my university. The building was practically right in front of me. Then, I walked across campus to reach the building where my first period class was held, but…

“Hey, hey, A-kun, A-kun? I’m being confined, right? Then why am I outside? I want to keep breathing the air in A-kun’s room…”

Houno-san was clinging to my arm as she asked me that question. The distance between us was nonexistent, so much so that even a real lovey dovey couple would be surprised at the sight of us. By the way, the hoodie and pants she was wearing now were mine. All of her casual clothes were still at her place. For the time being, I had no other choice but to let her wear my clothes. 

“You are. You are being confined.”

“Huh…? But, but… Right now, we’re inside the universtiy—”

“I’m confining you in my heart. You’re still being confined in my heart.”

“In your heart…?”

The obsessive stalker blinked at me in confusion. Sighing, I nodded to her. 

“Yeah. Even though I said I’m going to confine you, but I won’t interfere with your studies. After all, you need to attend classes so you can get enough credits to graduate, right?”

“I’m fine. If it’s for A-kun’s sake, I’d be perfectly okay with not earning any credits for my class.”

“No, please don’t say that. I beg you, Houno-san. Your parents are going to be sad, you know?”

“Also, A-kun. If you ever need money, just let me know. I don’t have any part-time job. I only live on my parents’ money and scholarship, but if it’s for A-kun… I will gladly hand over everything I own to you.”

“No! Please stop! That is definitely not good! You need to use that money for yourself! Don’t waste that money willy nilly either!!”

“Ehehehe…. Okay~ A-kun scolded me… Haa.. Haaa…♡ It’s still early in the morning, but I’m already overdosing on happiness…♡ Ah, I could die happy right now…♡”

“Ughhh….”

This stalker… Does she really understand what I’m talking about…?

While walking beside me, Houno-san wore a blissful smile on her face. She looked like she could melt soon. Well, this was definitely better than her being in a foul mood. Frustrating as it was, she was definitely cute. Frustratingly cute, even…

“Ah, right. Houno-san? I forgot to ask, but how are your credits coming along? You got all the credits you needed in the first semester, right?”

“…..It’s fine. Yes. Of course my credits are fine.”

“No,no. They’re definitely not fine, right? You totally hesitated there for a bit. Did you have a screenshot of your grades? Show it to me.”

“A-kun, what would you like for dinner tonight? I will make it with all the love I have for you!”

“Now, now. Don’t try to change the subject. In fact, you don’t need to show me your grades. Just tell me how many credits you’re behind. Depending on your answer, I might need to drag you to your class myself.”

“Five….”

“Huh?”

“I-It’s… It’s fi-five…”

That’s it. Further arguments are not needed. 

I definitely had to make sure she went to her class during the day. 

“N-No!! I don’t want to!! I don’t want to go to class! I can’t watch A-kun if I go to my class!! That would kill me!! I would die!! I would die for reallll!!!”

“There’s no way you’re going to die over something like that!!! Enough! You need to go to your class! What would you do if you had to repeat a year?! In fact, while we’re on this topic… What credits do you even have?!”

“We-Well… Those courses related to cooking… Because, if I can learn more about cooking, I can make lots of delicious meals for A-kun…”

“…..The-Then please try to attend the other classes for my sake too! Think about it! If you have to repeat a year, that means you’d need to stay at this university longer than me, right?!”

“..!! Yo-You’re right!”

She actually took it to heart, just like that. But then, I realized. We were in the middle of a crowded campus, making a fuss so blatantly like this. People passing by glanced at us every so often. It seemed our conversation had gotten a bit too rowdy. While I was a bit concerned at the people’s gazes, but my main priority was still Houno-san. I had to make sure she would attend her classes, no matter what. 

“Come on now. We need to part ways here. The Humanities Building is over there, and the Nutrition Building is that way. Let’s both do our best until lunchtime, okay?”

“Noooooo!! A-kunnnn!! Noooooo!! Stay with me, A-kunnnnnnnnnnn!!”

Houno-san said as she suddenly started acting like a kid throwing a fit. I felt like a parent dropping his kid off at the kindergarten. Just like I had mentioned before, people were watching us. Trying my hardest to shake her off, I grimaced. I was trying to pull my arm free to no avail. Left with no choice, I pat her head gently. The moment I did so, the grip she had on my arm slowly loosened. She finally let me go. It was a pretty good strategy if I may say so myself. She was beaming at me, like she was riding through some emotional rollercoaster.

Seriously? The heck with this girl’s mental gymnastics?

“Alright. I will go back to my house during lunch break. If you don’t have anything else to do, feel free to come to my house. I’ll leave the door unlocked for you.”

“…Hehe… Ehehehe…. Hehehehehe….”

“Hm…? What’s wrong? Why do you have such a creepy smile on your face?”

“Because… The way you said it just now… It’s like we’re a couple or something.”

“…”

The moment I heard her words, embarrassment flared up in me. I turned my back to Houno-san and gave her a quick and awkward goodbye. 

“Se-See you later.”

Seemingly resigned to her fate, Houno-san reluctantly nodded before she exclaimed loudly. 

“SEE YOU LATER, MASTER!”

Of course her sentence caused a stir among everyone around us. Feeling unbearably embarrassed, I bolted from the scene as fast as I could.
