I Was Treated Like a Child by a Cute Senpai at My Part-Time Job, So I Bought a 0.01mm Condom I Wasn't Going to Use in Front of Her After My Shift to Show Off. Then, From the Next Day Onwards, Senpai Started Acting Strange - Chapter 23 - This Is Not a Bribe

Chapter 23 – This Is Not a Bribe

“…What’s wrong, Yoshito? You’ve started to kneel in a dogeza position.”

“…I would like to ask a favor from Katarina right now.”

A room in my house, originally an empty room, is now occupied by a foreign student, “Katarina”.  She has taken over the room with anime, soccer uniforms, a gaming PC, and more.

In that room, I was begging Katarina, who is stunningly beautiful with a perfect figure, blonde hair that is so beautiful that I can’t help but stare, and jewel-like blue eyes that everyone would unanimously agree are gorgeous, to do something for me while I’m on my knees.

“I want you to pretend to be my girlfriend.”

“…Hah. I was wondering what you were going to say out of the blue… Are you stupid?”

Thanks to her experience of having watched all the Japanese anime despite being a foreign student, Katarina is fluent in Japanese. That’s why, as a British person, she mercilessly insults me in Japanese without any hesitation.

“I’m really pissed off right now. My beloved Liverpool, the club of my heart, has been losing to lower-ranked teams, and to top it off, the Mutsuki-chan figure that I was looking forward to was bought up by scalpers… Fuck!”

Katarina, who seems quite unhappy, sits on top of me as I kneel before her, crosses her legs, and starts drinking an energy drink that was nearby. She maintains her usual queen-like demeanor. While someone with a fetish for this type of behavior might enjoy or even be ecstatic about it, unfortunately, it’s not my cup of tea. However, I must endure it… I can’t risk offending Katarina and making her even more unhappy by rebelling against her here.

“That’s why, Yoshito, I’m going to torture you plenty today. We’re going to play Super Smash Bros. all night, so be prepared.”

“T-That’s…”

Due to her competitive personality, she won’t stop playing the game until she’s satisfied with the results. The last time we played Super Smash Bros. together, it ended up going on until 6 in the morning or so.

“You don’t want to? Well, you don’t have the right to veto, Yoshito! Ha-ha-ha!”

If I continue like this, I’ll just end up being at Katarina’s mercy. There’s no way she’s going to go easy on me… But at the same time, I can’t just back down either! I can’t afford to be disliked by senpai.

“…Katarina-sama, I have something for you.”

“Hmm? What’s this? Could it be a bribe, which is all the rage in Japan these days? There’s been a lot of talk in the news about people getting arrested, and I think some companies with a ‘K’ were involved—”

“N-No, don’t compare me to those sleazy adults! Anyway, could you please get off me for a bit? I can’t give it to you like this, can I?”

“Well, I guess I’ll have to bear with it, even though I was quite comfortable sitting on you. But if you give me something weird… Ahahaha! Oh, actually, that might be even better. I love seeing Yoshito’s troubled face!”

As Katarina laughs loudly and says something scary, I realize that she probably intends to continue tormenting me. However, that won’t happen. Because the present that I’m about to give her is surely something she’s been wanting for a long time.

“I have it right here.”

“Huh, let me see… Wha!? This is Mutsuki-chan’s figure! How did you get this!? Why do you have it!?”

I had obtained it by staying up all night waiting for it to become available on an online store, in preparation for the day I would use it to manipulate Katarina. As expected, Katarina was staring at the figure with sparkling eyes. She must have wanted it badly.

“What do you think, Katarina? Do you want this?”

“O-Of course I want it! Give it to me!”

“I can’t give it to you for free. Hey Katarina, will you do me a favor?”

“You… Are you trying to bribe me? You’re just like those dirty people after all!”

Moments ago, Katarina was on the offensive, but now she seems flustered. Haha, it’s the first time I’ve seen her like this. It might be fun to keep teasing her like this, but that’s not my goal right now. I have to get her to pretend to be my girlfriend no matter what.

“This is not a bribe, it’s a gift. Well, with a few conditions.”

“Y-Yoshito… Even though you usually treat me well…”

“Oh, you don’t want it. Then I’m going to enjoy this.”

“W-Wait! I won’t let you have Mutsuki-chan!”

“Then can you pretend to be my girlfriend?”

“Gr… I have no choice. Fine, I’ll do it.”

With a look of frustration on her face, Katarina was willing to take me up on my proposal…

“Okay, we have a deal.”

In this way, I managed to persuade Katarina and secured a promise from her to pretend to be my girlfriend. Phew, that’s a relief… Now it seems unlikely that senpai will find out about the lie. I’m so relieved!

“Playing the role of Yoshito’s girlfriend… Ahahaha! That sounds interesting too… I’ll get to see Yoshito’s troubled face a lot! Be prepared, Yoshito…!”
