I became the boyfriend of the school's madonna, who had turned down numerous confessions, but somehow, without realizing it, I wasn't just playing a role anymore - Chapter 108
Episode 108 Cherish Your Older Sister
“……♪”
Currently, as I’m being driven home by Sasagawa-sensei, Misaki, who is sitting in the back seat with me, is in a good mood, holding my hand.
She didn’t need to come along, but it feels like she insisted on joining us.
For me, it was also reassuring to have Misaki come along, as there might be a chance of something happening after I leave if it were just Sasagawa-sensei.
Like Misaki, Sasagawa-sensei is probably very popular, so it wouldn’t be surprising if there were one or two stalkers.
“You two really get along well.”
Through the mirror, Sasagawa-sensei could probably see Misaki squeezing my hand.
While driving, she spoke to us with a gentle smile.
“Because we’re lovers♪”
Misaki was happy to hear this and responded to her sister with a smiling face.
Seeing her so joyful warms my heart, but it also makes me a bit embarrassed.
Even though we act lovey-dovey, it seems I still haven’t quite gotten used to being real lovers.
“Hehe…”
Sasagawa-sensei smiles beautifully and focuses back on driving.
She seems satisfied seeing her sister’s happy smile.
Throughout it all, even when she got caught up in our situation or was inconvenienced, she never once showed any displeasure.
She must be an incredibly kind person.
There’s no doubt that Sasagawa-sensei has something to do with why Misaki has become such a spoiled child at heart.
“Big sister, can I bring Raito-kun over to the apartment again? I think Kokoa-chan would also want to come over and play.”
Perhaps because her sister is in a good mood, or because we’re almost at my hous.
Misaki went to get confirmation from her sister.
Bringing up Kokoa suggests she intends for her sister to look after her.
That way, we can have some time alone together.
“Of course. Shirai-san, I don’t mind if you contact me in advance, so please feel free to come anytime.”
Sasagawa-sensei, who is a kind person, doesn’t reject me; rather, he seems to welcome me.
However, I did get an indirect reminder not to drop by unannounced like today.
She probably wants to relax at home, and sudden visits from her sister’s boyfriend or a preschooler would be inconvenient.
In any case, I had no intention of dropping by without any notice.
I heard she wasn’t here today—so that’s why I didn’t contact Sasagawa-sensei.
“Thank you.”
“Thanks, big sister.”
I thank her, and Misaki smiles and thanks her as well.
Then she looks up at me expectantly.
“She said you can come anytime?”
Misaki emphasizes this point.
Whether she means I can come tomorrow right away, or she implies I can come almost every day—I’m not sure, but I don’t want to cause any inconvenience to Sasagawa-sensei.
To make sure she has time to relax, I’ll only visit occasionally.
Otherwise, Kokoa might get used to it.
She really likes Sasagawa-sensei, so if I start visiting every few days, she might start asking to come every day.
Adjusting for that will also be necessary.
More than anything, unlike Misaki who can come to my house with a commuter pass, I have to buy a ticket every time to go to Sasagawa-sensei’s apartment because it’s on the opposite side of school.
Financially, it’s just impossible every day.
Even every few days is painful.
“Basically, I’d appreciate it if Misaki could come.”
“…Right, I should just bring my sister.”
“Hey…”
Misaki immediately suggests this alternative.
She’s quick-witted, which is good, but I wish she’d cherish her older sister a bit more… or at least, that’s what I think.
