The midterms ended without incident.

Only god knows if Hazuki had successfully passed the test, but for now it’s over.

“Hah… Cakes are so good!”

“…You’re eating too much.”

“My stomach is about to burst…”

Minato and Serina looked at Hazuki with both astonishment and awe.

They’re in a confectionery restaurant located in a corner of a huge shopping mall.

A cake buffet can be enjoyed in the restaurant.

“A Mont Blanc, rare cheesecake, strawberry tart, opera cake, mille crepe, and another Mont Blanc. How much are you gonna eat?”

“You know what they say, there’s another stomach for sweets, right?”

“That other stomach is just out of this world.”

Minato only had one rare cheese cake.

Serina also only had one strawberry shortcake.

“I mean, I was so hungry after all that singing in the karaoke bar.”

“Well, it’s mostly just you having a concert after all.”

School ended at noon today, the last day of midterms.

Hazuki’s group led the class to have a celebration at a karaoke bar.

Minato thought that Hazuki might have been singing half the time in those two hours.

Incidentally, Minato didn’t sing a single song, and Serina was just in the corner, perhaps too embarrassed to sing.

“Leaving aside Minato, everyone wanted to hear Serina sing.”

“I’m not a great singer, so I can’t… sing for other people.”

“I heard Serina sang in junior high during music class. She’s really good, you know.”

“Oh, can you also play piano?”

“I can but… just because I can play a piano doesn’t make a great singer.”

Serina is humble, but she’s probably great at it, just like Hazuki had said.

Her natural voice is clear and angelic, so Minato would like to hear it at least once.

“By the way, didn’t we eat at the karaoke bar too?”

“I mean, it was lunch. Of course I’d eat.”

Minato also witnessed Hazuki ordering and eating stuff at the karaoke box.

“It’s been less than three hours since you last ate… with that eating habit, how come you’re not getting fat?”

“Because it’s all going to my breasts?”

“Stop, we’re in public.”

Hazuki started to touch her breasts through her cardigan, and Minato hurried to warn her.

Serina’s face has turned red, too.

“Sorry, sorry. But the cakes are delicious.”

“Well, they’re delicious indeed. I don’t eat a lot of cakes, so when I heard it was a buffet, I thought it’s gonna be those hard and tasteless ones.”

“I agree, I mostly eat Japanese sweets, but the cakes here are sweet and elegant.”

“Hehe, I know, right? This place is surprisingly not well known. Let’s keep this place a secret, just for us three.”

Hazuki is in a very good mood.

With the test over, she had karaoke, and ate plenty of sweet cake. There’s no reason why this should not put her in a good mood.

“Oh yeah, was it really fine for us to just leave them? Didn’t they move to Spotty after?”

“I’m sure you two were going to leave after the karaoke, right? If that’s the case, I might as well tag along with you guys.”

“Well… I suppose.”

Hazuki has a group of friends, but can she leave that group alone?

It was something Minato had wondered about time and time again whenever he and Hazuki went to hang out.

“But you know, it’s rare for Serina to come to a class celebration.”

“Y-yes… I thought I should make an effort to get along with everyone a little bit…”

“Hmm, that’s great, that’s great. There are a lot of people who want to hang out with you after all. Let’s go shopping next time. Serina, your underwear are all white, right?”

“We’re suddenly going shopping for underwear?”

“Hey… I hope you haven’t forgotten my existence.”

“Hmm? You also want to come, Minato? Well, I’m fine with it.”

“I’m not asking you to take me shopping with you. I’m telling you not to talk about underwear while I’m around.”

“What now? When you’ve been rubbing our boobs.”

“A-Aoi-chan…”

Serina quickly reached out and covered Hazuki’s mouth.

Serina’s face is redder than before.

“Mghmhg… S-sorry. But let’s go shopping. We don’t have to buy anything.”

“S-sure… I don’t have a lot of clothes after all…”

“I knew it, we hung out a few times in middle school, but you were always wearing the same kind of clothes. It’s either a one-piece dress or long skirts.”

“I don’t wear pants very often… and I wear skirts a lot. I don’t have any short skirts though.”

“Wear a mini-skirt. You’re a high school girl after all. Serina, you have slender legs, so you’d look better than those skirts you wear at school.”

“I-I don’t want something so short, I don’t have long legs like you do, Aoi-chan.”

“Stop lying, you’re just shorter than me. It’s also the same for your skirts, how about you wear something other than white?”

“Eh… But flashy stuff doesn’t suit me, I have a plain face after all.”

“What plain?! You’ve got such a pretty face!”

“Kya…! Please don’t pinch my cheeks!”

“………”

Minato doesn’t get involved in the conversation at all, but they seem to be enjoying themselves.

At times like this, he would get reminded that these two are girls.

Because they’re girls, they can do such things.

“Oh… a call.”

Hazuki then got up from her seat and walked out of the restaurant.

“……..” “………”

Once Hazuki leaves, Minato and Serina can’t have a good conversation.

“B-by the way, did Hazuki pass the exam? It was so rowdy, so I couldn’t ask her.”

“A-ah… Minato-kun, you taught her, right? Then, it should be fine.”

What’s with this immense trust? Minato wanted to retort.

Compared to Serina, Minato’s grades are much lower.

“I would have really appreciated it if you taught with me, Serina-san. But you have a curfew and you can’t study outside before exams, right?”

“Eh?”

“Eh?”

Serina looked perplexed while holding a cup of tea in her hand.

“I do have a curfew to keep, but I don’t think I would get scolded for studying with friends… Before, I had a study session with Aoi-san…”

“…Is that so?”

If so, why did Hazuki say that we can’t invite Serina before?

Somehow, strange discrepancies are happening from time to time.

Minato had almost completely forgotten, but there were some talks that Hazuki had known about Minato even before she first approached him in the summer.

“But I’m not the type of person who can teach somebody, so you did the right thing by studying together.”

“I see.”

Serina doesn’t think she was “left out” of the group.

Minato, while relieved for the moment―

“Sorry, sorry. They got mad when I suddenly left.”

“Of course they will.”

Minato and Serina chuckles at Hazuki’s return.

After leaving the karaoke box, Minato and co faded out on their way to the next destination, so it was no wonder that Hazuki’s friends were angry.

Perhaps her friends let it go, thinking that Hazuki would join them again eventually.

“Then, what should we do next? Pizza for dinner or… should we go all out and grill some meat?”

“How can you talk about dinner after eating so much cake…?”

“Ah, but… considering Serina’s curfew, we should decide as soon as possible.”

“About that.”

Serina raises her hand timidly.

“Exams just finished, so I can get my curfew extended for an hour or so. So why don’t we eat at… Aoi-san’s house?”

“Hm, I see. If we go to other restaurants, we might miss the time.”

“If we go to a restaurant around here, we’re also likely to run into people from the same school.”

If it were just a bunch of guys hanging around, sure. But the combination of Hazuki, Serina, and Minato would likely draw strange looks.

“But, Serina. If it’s at my place, we’ll just be eating instant stuff.”

“If it’s fine with you… I can make some food for us.”

“ “Eh” “

Minato and Hazuki exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

They both came from single-parent households and don’t have the slightest intention of cooking.

They haven’t had a home-cooked meal at home for a long time.

Their reply was―already decided.

“Oh, but don’t expect too much. It’s normal, just normal.”

In the kitchen of the Hazuki family, Serina is cooking while looking embarrassed.

Serina had her long black hair in a ponytail, her uniform blazer off, and a pink apron over her white blouse.

“Wow, there’s human cooking at my place…”

“What’s more, it’s a high school girl in an apron…”

Minato and Hazuki sat on the sofa in the living room while looking at the kitchen and watching the impressive scene.

Having done some shopping on the way, Serina started cooking as soon as she arrived at Hazuki’s house.

As far as Minato could see, Serina’s handiwork is excellent.

The leeks are chopped up in a rhythmic manner.

“Are you sure we don’t have to help?”

“Don’t worry, leave it to me.”

Serina turns around and smiles.

“You two should just relax. I tend to get so focused on my work that it’s easier for me to do it alone.”

“I see. We’ll take your word for it then.”

He was too happy to get treated to a home-cooked meal by a female friend.

Not to mention, a beauty like Serina―

“Dammit, Serina. She’s cute, smart, and can even cook…”

“I don’t think it’s anything to be frustrated about. But we should at least be able to cook for ourselves.”

“Isn’t it fine? I mean, we’ve got Uber Eats and everything. Though… I want to have some home-cooked meals sometimes.”

“See? If anyone’s gonna be learning, it’s gonna be me.”

“Why? I’m a girl, you know?”

“I’m not one of those old-fashioned people who force girls to cook for me.”

“Don’t talk like a smart ass. I want to do girly stuff like cooking!”

“You say that, but you’re not doing any practice.”

Minato also doesn’t demand Hazuki to acquire cooking skills.

“…But man, Serina-san is really focusing.”

“She’s so full of ideas that sometimes she can’t see what’s around her.”

“How unusual.”

“It’s because she’s like that that she let you, a guy who she knew only for a short time, suck on her boobs.”

“…You’re still mad about that?”

“Why should I be mad about that? I’m just a friend.”

“…Yeah, just friends.”

“………”

When Minato nodded, Hazuki fell silent―and glanced at Serina.

“Because we’re just friends. This isn’t a request or anything, it’s like a greeting between friends.”

Hazuki said so and kissed him lightly on the lips.

In fact, since their first kiss the other day, they kissed many times in between study sessions.

“It would be really bad if Serina were to find out… chu… Chuu…”

Despite her shyness, Hazuki kisses him even more.

Minato also hugs Hazuki’s thin waist as she sits next to him and brings her lips together with his own.

“Nn… Nnnn… Nn… Chuu…♡ Minato, you can’t… Serina is cooking for us, we can’t do this…”

“I know, that’s why it’s just for a bit…”

He glanced at the kitchen and saw that Serina was cutting vegetables.

It looks to be a nabemono, exactly what she went shopping for.

Now that fall is almost here, a warm nabemono is not a bad idea.

“Nn… Chuu… Come on, just a little bit… is fine, okay…?”

“Then, can I touch your… boobs for a bit…?”

“Yeah… be careful so Serina doesn’t find out, okay…?”

Hazuki pulls open the front of her white blouse to reveal her pink bra.

Minato drags her pink bra up – and her F-cup boobs pop out as it bounces up and down.

“G-geez… don’t suddenly fondle it…Nnn…♡”

“Getting to cop a feel before dinner, it’s the best.”

“Stop saying dumb thin… Nhn♡ Wa-wait, aren’t you rubbing a little too hard today…?”

“Yeah…we’ve only been kissing lately.”

“S-since we’re just friends… isn’t just a kiss enough… Hahnn♡”

“You’re getting turned on? Your boobs are sooo soft…”

“Geez… if you don’t stop soon, Serina will find out…”

Hazuki gave a meaningful look.

That she’ll service him a lot today.

“Then… how about we go back to basics, can you show me your underwear?”

“Wh-what basics? Geez…!”

That said, Hazuki slowly flipped her skirt up.

A pretty pink underwear is peeking out from under her skirt that’s slightly flipped up.

“I can vibe with this. This feeling of rush is really good.”

“Aren’t you becoming more and more of a maniac…?”

“But you see, ‘Here, underwear. Have a look.’ and not having any expression is completely different from showing it with embarrassment.”

“What are you trying to prove…? Here, have a look.”

“Oh, it feels so different with your embarrassment, even though it’s the same line.”

“Minato, so anything is fine?!”

“Well, of course anything would be great if I get to see underwear.”

“I-idi~ot. It’s enough, right? If we don’t, Serina is gonna find out…”

“J-just let me see your underwear… a bit more.”

“I know it’s a little late, but how much do you like my underpants… Ahnn… you’re staring too much♡”

“How could I look away from this?”

“W-well, it’s flattering… when you’re that happy… Nhnn… your gaze is so perverted♡”

Hazuki has already flipped her skirt so wide that her underwear are fully visible.

The most beautiful and cheerful girl in the class is so bold to show what’s under her skirt―

It was too great of a privilege as a friend.

“T-this is… just for today. I’m only doing you a big favor because you helped me study for the tests, okay? I can’t do this everyday…”

“I-I know.”

If she can’t do it everyday, does that mean there will be a second or third time?

Minato felt a rush of anticipation as well as pleasure.

“Um, I already… cut all the ingredients, but…”

“ “……….!” “

Minato and Hazuki froze at the sudden voice.

No―it was bound to happen, but what were the two getting excited about?

Serina, dressed in an apron, stood by the sofa, with her face bright red, and averting her gaze from them.

“…Um, can you show your boobs again, Serina-san?”

“Minato, what the hell are you requesting!?”

“J-just my breasts…?”

“What? Serina-san, what are you sayi…?”

Serina sits down on the sofa, with her face red to her ears.

“Should I also… um… show this… along with Aoi-san…?”

“…Seriously?”

“Y-yes… Both my breasts… and my underwear… I can show them to you, Minato-kun…”

Minato could not believe his ears.

He thought it was just a whim that Serina, whom he hadn’t known much, let him see her underpants and rub her breasts.

Today too… or even in the future, he could touch her breasts and see her underwear…?

“It’s because we’re friends… I-it’s alright…”

“………”

Although he was the one who asked her, Minato doesn’t know how Serina defines a friend.

But―he has no reason to refuse.

“Then, can you also… um, show it to me a little?”

“O-of course… Please look at my breasts as much as you’d like…”

“Geez, what’s going on…?”

Serina nods as she looks away, then flips up her long skirt to reveal a pair of neat white underwear.

Minato gulps and swallows his spit.

Under Serina’s apron, there are breasts there that are large enough, even if not as big as Hazuki’s.

He can rub those breasts and look at her underwear as much as he wants.

Minato was pleasantly surprised that such a beautiful girl would allow such a thing just because they’re friends.

“Come on, you can look at either mine or Serina’s… as much as you’d like♡”

“O-of course… You can rub my breasts too if you’d like…♡”

“Y-yeah.”

Hazuki with short brown hair and Serina with long black hair, two extremely beautiful girls of different types but of the highest quality, stood side by side and were showing off the contents of their skirts.

Minato had to desperately mobilize all of his rational faculties to suppress the urge to pound them.
