I was dumped by my childhood friend, so I went to a shrine to ask God to give me a girlfriend. Then, God gave me a special curse of being liked by a beautiful Yandere girl!

Chapter 30 : Her affection for me is Immeasurable!

Test week has ended, and in just a few days, the eagerly awaited summer vacation will begin. Anticipating the arrival of summer break, I walked to school with Kotoko today as well.

“Sorry, Takemitsu-kun, I need to use the restroom real quick.”

“Yeah, go ahead. I’ll head to the classroom and wait.”

Kotoko and I parted ways in front of the girls’ restroom. Lately, she always seemed to go to the restroom whenever she came to school. It wasn’t like that before.

Well, human physiological phenomena are not easily controlled, and there’s nothing to be done about it. It’s more poisonous to try to hold it in.

I separated from her and headed to the classroom.

Before entering the classroom, I glanced inside to see if Yokohama and Kashiwagi were there. Lately, this has become a daily routine before entering the classroom. How long do I have to continue with this?

After confirming that the two weren’t there, I headed to my seat. As usual, I greeted Kouta, who was sitting in the front row.

“Good morning!”

“Hey! Oh, today you’re alone?”

“Kotoko went to pick some flowers.”

“Oh, I see.”

I sat at my desk, prepared for the day’s classes, and began chatting with Kouta. In the end, Kotoko returned from the restroom just before the start of Student Homeroom.

It took quite a while. Well, it’s rude to comment on a woman’s restroom time.

◇◇◇◇◇◇

And then came lunchtime…

“Huh? Kotoko, are we not having lunch together today?”

“Sorry, Takemitsu-kun. I have something I must do… I’ll leave the lunchbox for you.”

I tried to have lunch with her, but she declined, citing some urgent matters. This made it the second consecutive day, following yesterday. What could be so important for two days in a row?

“Okay, I understand. But are you sure you’ll be okay alone? If there’s anything I can help with, just let me know.”

“No, Takemitsu-kun, it’s nothing that would trouble you. Besides, you might get dirty~♪”

“Is that so? But if you ever need help, feel free to ask. I am your boyfriend, after all.”

“Thank you, Takemitsu-kun. I love you~♪”

Saying that, Kotoko gave me a quick peck and left the classroom. Alone, I decided to have lunch with Kouta, who was sitting in the front row.

“Hey, what’s up with Sena-san? Didn’t she refuse to have lunch with you yesterday too?”

“I don’t know… It hasn’t been like this before.”

“Could it be… have you fallen out of favor with Sena-san?”

“No way? I don’t think Kotoko would do that. Everything is normal after school, and besides, isn’t it strange for someone who’s fallen out of favor to make lunch for the other person?”

I opened the lid of the lunchbox that Kotoko had prepared. Inside were colorful side dishes and shining white rice. In the center of the rice was a large heart, and below it, in seaweed, it said, “Takemitsu-kun LOVE.”

“See?”

“Indeed, she puts so much effort into making these lunches. Falling out of favor doesn’t seem likely. In fact, you’re probably being loved like crazy. But if that’s the case, why…”

“It’s intriguing, but I trust Kotoko. I’ve decided not to ask anything. Eventually, she’ll tell me herself, right?”

“…You guys have become like a seasoned couple without me realizing it. Understanding each other and all that.”

“Really? When you’re in a relationship, you start to understand each other.”

“Quit it with the clichés. Damn it. I want a girlfriend too!”

I bowed my head and said, “Let’s eat,” taking out the chopsticks and starting to eat the lovingly made lunch by Kotoko. The first thing I tasted was the fried chicken. According to Kotoko, it was chicken marinated in the secret sauce of the Sena family, making it very spicy and delicious.

“Sena-san’s lunch looks delicious. Hey, mind if I ask you something? How about we trade one of your fried chickens for one of my croquettes?”

“I won’t give you any. All of Kotoko’s lunch is mine.”

I couldn’t grant my best friend’s wish, no matter how much he asked. I couldn’t give away what she had made for me.

“Hey, my croquette is bigger than that fried chicken, you know? Isn’t it more profitable for you if you trade?”

“Kouta, it’s not about quantity. Think about it. A fried chicken made with love by a beautiful girl and a croquette mass-produced by a machine… which one do you think has more value?”

“Ugh…”

Kouta looked frustrated. Sorry, Kouta. Enjoy your happiness when you find yourself a girlfriend.

◇◇◇◇◇◇

Time passed, and in the evening after school, Kotoko and I walked home as usual, our arms linked.

“I’ve finally finished my tasks. From tomorrow on, we can eat together again~♡”

“That’s great. I was lonely not being able to have lunch with Kotoko.”

“Sorry, Takemitsu-kun. But finally… I’ve sorted out the pest control.”

“Pest control?”

…Pest control, as in cockroaches or mice, right? Wasn’t Kotoko a member of the Environmental Committee or something? Is pest control a task for the committee? But usually, that’s not something students do; it’s handled by professional exterminators, isn’t it?

Hmm… I don’t really understand.

While I had doubts about her words, I decided to let the topic slide.
