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 39 : Status report and Fun Time with Kouta

“Hey! Takemitsu, over there! Enemies on the right!”

“Huh? Really? Here we go!”

That day, Kouta and I were playing the popular FPS game together at my house. We picked up weapons lying around, teamed up with other players, and cooperated to defeat opponents.

During the summer vacation, I spent almost every day with Kotoko. However, on that particular day, Kotoko had some errands to do, so she couldn’t join us. Instead, I invited Kouta to play with me. We had planned to hang out together before the summer vacation started.

“Ah, darn it! We lost!”

“Huh? Where were the enemies? You’re not using cheats, are you?”

The two of us stared at the smartphone screen, frantically controlling our characters and celebrating or lamenting the outcomes. While spending time with Kotone was enjoyable, playing with same-gender friends had its own unique charm.

After playing the game for about two hours, we decided to take a break. Kouta was sipping a carbonated drink with plenty of ice that his mother had brought.

“Phew~. Summer is the best, drinking a cold drink with lots of ice while sitting in a room with air conditioning and a fan spinning.”

“You sound like an old man, Kouta.”

I chuckled and said that while taking a sip from my own cup. I understood the feeling, though. The refreshing sensation of drinking a cold carbonated drink in a cool room is unparalleled. It’s even more effective after taking a bath.

Kouta took another sip from his cup and then spoke with a reminiscent expression.

“Oh, by the way… Have you heard about Yokohama since then?”

“Something happened? I heard he got stabbed by a girl, but that’s about it.”

“Oh, well… Thanks to emergency surgery, he managed to survive, but he lost a lot of blood when he was stabbed. Apparently, he still hasn’t regained consciousness. Also, his… you know, down there got stabbed too much and became useless.”

“Hmm.”

Normally, one might feel sympathy or pity at this point, but considering what he had done, I couldn’t find any compassion for him. It seemed like karma had caught up with him for his actions.

“And Yokohama is apparently going to be prosecuted on house arrest.”

“House arrest?”

“I don’t know the details, just heard it. Criminals who don’t pose a risk of escape or evidence tampering can be prosecuted on house arrest. Since Yokohama is currently unconscious and unable to move, they probably deemed it unnecessary to worry about those concerns.”

Kouta continued speaking as he took another sip of his drink.

“Furthermore, criminals who don’t meet the requirements for physical restraint, like arrest or detention, are prosecuted on house arrest and charged by the prosecutor without being arrested. About 60% of assault cases apparently follow this pattern.”

“I see…”

Well, if he’s unconscious, it makes sense. Some might even prefer him to remain that way. Personally, I hoped that he would wake up and face the consequences of his actions.

“Oh, right, Yokohama and Kashiwagi were officially expelled in a staff meeting.”

“As expected.”

Yokohama, with his history of violence and various misconduct, and Kashiwagi, with the school scandal involving intercourse and pregnancy, both had more than enough reasons to be expelled. It’s good that they weren’t let off the hook by the teachers. Kudos to Kotoko for capturing evidence on video.

…My mother heard from Kashiwagi’s mother in a phone call recently. Kashiwagi apparently ended up being hospitalized in a nearby mental institution. Well, given her state, that’s not surprising.

Well, with them out of the picture, nobody would be disturbing our school life with Kotoko anymore. We could attend school without worries after summer vacation.

“You look happy. Me too, though.”

“Of course. I think only their close associates would feel otherwise. Seems like everyone in the class secretly disliked Yokohama, too.”

“Now you can enjoy some quality time with Sena-san without anyone bothering you.”

Kouta grinned while saying that. Well, that’s true, but what’s with that face, Kouta?

“So, what about you? How far have you gone with Sena-san?”

I see, Kouta wanted to know that. However, as I mentioned before, I don’t really like discussing our romantic situation with others. Such matters should be kept between the people involved.

“We’re doing fine. Kotoko and I have a healthy relationship. Contrary to what you might think, we haven’t done anything like that. Those things can wait until we’re adults.”

“What’s wrong with you, Takemitsu? You’re a guy too, right? It’s not like you’re not interested in that stuff.”

Well, I can’t say I have no interest, but I cherish Kotone, and I don’t want to do anything that might hurt her.

“Yeah, I do have some interest, but I value Kotoko, so I don’t want to do anything that might hurt her.”

“You’re really in love with Sena-san. Well then, here’s a gift for you guys!”

Kouta said that and placed a colorful square box on the table.

“I-is this…”

“That’s right. Kondo-san, condoms.”

He placed an unopened box of condoms on the table. Why is he bringing something like this into someone else’s room!?

“No, we don’t need that. Put it away.”

“Come on, ask me. I know you, Takemitsu. But you’re human too. There are times when you can’t resist, right? I think it’s good to have it just in case. It’s better than doing it without protection.”

“No, but…”

I’m generally against high schoolers engaging in such activities. Save that for when you’re adults!

…But Kouta does have a point. I’ve been holding back so far, but lately, Kotone has been too charming, and my rationality is about to snap at times. Having it just in case might not be a bad idea.

“What’s wrong? Would you have preferred gaming condoms or cola-flavored condoms?”

“There are condoms like that!?”

“Condoms these days come in various types, you know?”

“Really…”

“Well, better safe than sorry.”

Saying that, Kouta pushed it into my pants pocket. Ugh… let’s hope we never have to use it.
