I Got Reincarnated as the Scummy Dude Who Sends NTR Video Letters to Otaku Guys in Erotic Manga, But When I Tried to Steal His Girlfriend, I Accidentally Hooked Up with Her Twin Sister Instead - Chapter 4.1

Chapter 4.1: Brought to Her Room

“Nedori-kun, what’re you doing over Golden Week? I’m planning to just stay home and read light novels the whole time except when I go out with Aoi!”

That was the next day.

Like usual, I was chatting with Otaku-kun before morning homeroom, but my head was completely somewhere else.

――Can we meet again tomorrow too?

Her words were still echoing in my brain even now. Because of that I barely slept at all yesterday. Seriously sleep-deprived right now.

By the way, I obviously answered her question with “Yeah, let’s meet.” We’re gonna see each other at school anyway, so obviously.

But personally I took it as meaning let’s meet at the park.

Anyway, that’s why talking with Otaku-kun felt super awkward and I just couldn’t get into it.

“Hey, Nedori-kun, you listening?”

“Uoh?”

“You definitely weren’t listening just now, right? You’ve been acting kinda weird since yesterday?”

Looks like Otaku-kun started suspecting something. Yeah, figures it’d get noticed quick. They’re childhood friends after all.

“Sorry! I ended up being late for our meet-up again today! I kinda got into a fight with my family!”

Right when I was thinking that, she walked into the classroom.

Being Otaku-kun’s childhood friend, she turned around and sat in the seat in front of him, facing backward,

“Golden Week’s gonna be fun, huh〜”

and started propping her cheek on her hand with a happy smile.

――Her personality did a complete 180 from yesterday.

Huh? What the hell is going on? This is honestly starting to scare me.

Also, she’s way too late for the meet-up. Don’t cause so much trouble for Otaku-kun.

“Yeah. It’s gonna be fun.”

“Hey, you don’t sound excited at all!”

“I’m normally excited though.”

“Liar〜! You look so disappointed!”

“That’s just because I can’t hang out with Nedori-kun… wait, never mind! It’s nothing, seriously nothing!”

Otaku-kun glanced over here looking all panicked, but there were so many weird things going on that basically none of their conversation actually registered in my head.

Seriously, she’s like a totally different person at school versus the park. But her face is exactly the same.

Still, the her that’s at school… I don’t feel attracted to her at all. That part I genuinely didn’t understand.

※

And today I came to the park again.

Sure enough, she was sitting on the usual bench.

“I’m really happy I get to see Nedori-kun again.”

“Uoh?”

As soon as I sat on the bench, she scooted right up next to me.

No, “scooted” is an understatement—she was completely glued to my side.

The distance was so close I could smell her sweet scent and even hear her breathing, and my heart was pounding like crazy. If anyone saw us like this it’d be game over instantly.

My brain was screaming that, but I couldn’t pull away. No… I didn’t wanna pull away.

So I just stayed like that, feeling her body heat while we made small talk.

“I got into a huge fight with my family today.”

“Uoh?”

“Like, a really massive one. I even thought about running away from home a couple times.”

“Running away, huh. I get the feeling. I mean, I started living alone precisely because I didn’t wanna be at home.”

“Living alone… that sounds nice. No one nagging you or anything.”

“In that sense yeah, it’s pretty chill. Though if I feel like slacking, there’s no one to stop me so I just keep slacking forever.”

Especially on days off I just lie in bed doing English vocab or reading light novels all day. Probably not the healthiest.

“Lazing around in bed sounds nice too. I love that kind of thing.”

“Uoh? That’s kinda surprising.”

Futaba Aoi always gave off super energetic vibes, so I couldn’t picture her just lounging around at home.

But with the vibe she has right now… yeah, I can actually imagine it.

“Having time alone is important too, y’know.”

“Seriously, I get that so much. Hanging with friends is fun and all, but sometimes you just gotta be alone. You can turn your brain off completely.”

After that we just kept chatting about nothing special. Nothing particularly funny, no new info or anything.

Just lazily talking about little everyday stuff. And it felt really nice—super comfortable time.

Except my heart was racing nonstop because we were so close. Other than that it was perfect.

I even caught myself thinking stupid shit like “I wish this could just go on forever.”

But time flies way too fast. The sun started setting and it got harder to see her face.

If only I could keep looking at her expression longer.

With that tiny bit of feeling lingering, I stood up and said,

“Guess we should head back soon.”

But just like yesterday, she silently grabbed my shirt. The way she dropped her gaze looking all lonely hit my protective instincts so hard my reason almost collapsed.

No. Gotta hold it together. Seriously, I can’t go any further than this.

While I kept repeating that in my head, she slowly stood up, looked up at me with those upward eyes, and said,

“Can we spend just a little more time together today?”

※

“Hehe, I’m so happy. I never thought Nedori-kun would actually come to my house.”

“Uoh?”

“What’s wrong? Do you hate it after all?”

“No no. It’s just… first time going to a girl’s house, so I’m kinda nervous.”

“First time…”

According to her, no one was home today.

Both her parents’ work and some family stuff overlapped, so nobody was coming back tonight.

And it’s Friday too.

Not sure if the timing is good or bad.

Well, since she fought with her family it’s probably awkward to go home, so maybe no one being there is convenient for her.

But still, inviting the guy who’s stealing your childhood friend’s girlfriend into the house… isn’t that kinda dangerous?

I thought that, but there’s no way I could turn her down when she invited me. Wait, but going to her house is basically full-on NTR though.
