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 114
Episode 114: Discipline?
“―Sorry to keep you waiting.”
After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I return to my room and call out to Misaki.
However―.
“Zzz… zzz…”
Misaki was sound asleep next to Kokoa, breathing softly.
It seems she fell asleep while waiting for me.
“It was true that she wanted to sleep…”
She had stayed up late last night and woke up early this morning, so it’s understandable.
“……”
I approached the bed and looked at her adorable sleeping face.
Recently, I’ve been seeing more of this childlike side of Misaki, but seeing her like this, she looks as beautiful as a sleeping princess.
I can understand why the boys are all smitten with her.
“They’re like close sisters.”
Seeing Kokoa and Misaki sleeping soundly side by side, they really do look like actual sisters.
Kokoa is as cute as a button and not any less attractive than Misaki, so it’s no wonder I think that way.
This girl will definitely grow up to be a beauty.
As I was thinking about that, I reached out to touch Misaki’s head, lying next to her cute little sister―
“Nngh…”
―the moment I touched her, Misaki’s body twitched.
Huh, this reaction―
Just as I thought that, it was already too late.
The body lying in front of me suddenly shot up, and a soft sensation pressed against my lips.
“Mwa.”
“―!?”
Caught off guard, my body stiffened in response to this unexpected situation.
In front of me, her face was gleeful, her eyes closed in delight.
“―Hehe, you didn’t see that coming, did you?”
As our lips parted, Misaki looked at me with a mischievous grin, clearly pleased with herself.
It seems she was still holding a grudge about earlier.
She had pretended to be asleep, waiting for me to drop my guard.
“Kokoa is sleeping right next to us…”
“It’s fine, it’s still early in the morning, so I don’t think she’d wake up from just this.”
Indeed, Kokoa doesn’t wake up easily.
She’s a deep sleeper, so unless we make a big fuss, she likely won’t wake up at this hour.
However―there’s always the possibility.
Last night, she woke up unusually and gave Mom a hard time.
“Even if she’s asleep, it’s not okay when Kokoa is around.”
“Muu…”
When I scolded her, Misaki puffed out her cheeks like a child, just as she had earlier.
I’ve been seeing this expression more often since we started getting closer, but it’s something I never saw before then.
She probably only shows this kind of behavior to people she’s comfortable enough to depend on.
And lately, I’ve been seeing it more often—perhaps she thinks that by doing this, I’ll give in or spoil her.
“And besides, that’s it for today.”
“Why…!?”
When I said this as a bit of payback, Misaki’s cheeks instantly deflated, and she looked at me as if she couldn’t believe what she’d just heard.
It must have been quite a shock.
“Because you did it with Kokoa right there.”
“I don’t think you need to be so mean about it…!”
Misaki tugged at my clothes, making her displeasure known.
She’s trying too hard.
