Home Date? No, I'm Cooking At Her House For Some Reason - Chapter 5

May 19 (Thursday) A Normal Weekday…

A/N: Today is short.

My close friends know that we started dating, so I started talking to Okada-san during breaks today.

Other classmates looked at us in surprise as they learned that we had started dating at this time.

Among them, there was even one guy who seemed to glare at me—maybe he liked Okada-san too.

Sorry, but this is my first time dating a girl, so I can’t be considerate of everyone.

If you had helped a bit more during the cultural festival, you might have had a chance.

After school…

I had no plans to hang out with friends today, so I decided to go talk to Okada-san.

Nothing special happened during the breaks, but Okada-san seemed a bit concerned about something.

Did something happen?

“What’s wrong?”

“Um, about what you mentioned yesterday, did you really buy an ero manga?”

“Hahaha, are you curious?”

“Yeah.”

“I didn’t buy one yesterday.”

“What about in the future?”

“Girls wouldn’t want their boyfriends buying them, right?”

“Hmm, I don’t want you to buy them, but I also don’t want to make you suppress your desires. And since it’s manga and not gravure photos, I feel like I should tolerate it…When I think about it, I can’t help but worry.”

“I’ll show you what it’s like sometime.”

“Huh? Were you teasing me?”

“Ahahahaha.”

Even though I said it as a joke, she seemed genuinely curious about ero manga.

Maybe it’s better not to buy it for Okada-san…we have to come to a compromise somewhere.

“By the way, what about the study session?”

“About that… can we do it at my house?”

“Huh? Why suddenly?”

Going to Okada-san’s house… This is so sudden, and I’m feeling nervous.
Isn’t it unusual to visit your girlfriend’s house just a few days after you start dating?
Here’s the translation:

“You walked me home the last two days, right? Apparently, my mom saw that… When I said yesterday that I’d be studying with friends at the library on Sunday because the exam is coming up soon, she suggested that we should have the study session at our place instead.”

“Where do you usually have study sessions with your friends?”

“…My friend’s houses…”

So, if she said library, it would seem different from usual. And if her mom saw me walking her home, she might think we’re dating and studying together.

Maybe she wants to see me up close, so she asked Okada-san to bring me home?

“I’m sorry… That’s probably why. She must have realized it’s not the usual friends.”

“Is that so?”

“What do you think? Isn’t it a high hurdle to introduce your boyfriend so soon?”

“But… I wanted to introduce you eventually anyway… It’s fine.”

I guess I have to make up my mind.

It’s only a matter of whether the introduction happened earlier or later, so it’s better to at least do a greeting to ensure a comfortable relationship, after all.
“Got it. I’ll brace myself. Sunday at your house for the study session, right?”

“Is that okay?”

“Yeah, I’ll come to your place on Sunday.”

I should prepare a small gift…

So, I decided to walk her home again today.
