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 28 - I Want to Show Senpai How Good I Am at the Game Center

Chapter 28 – I Want to Show Senpai How Good I Am at the Game Center

“It was delicious. …Thank you, senpai, for introducing me to this restaurant!”

“I’m glad you’re happy, Sanada-kun. Let’s go together again next time!”

“Yes! By the way, where are we going next?”

“Let’s see, next is—”

“Hey Yoshito, I want to go to that arcade over there. Let’s go.”

“H-Hey!”

After finishing our lunch and when senpai was about to guide us to our next destination, Katarina found a game center and pulled me along without even asking. That’s right, Katarina is a top-class game enthusiast. If she finds a game center, she gets attracted to it and can’t resist going in.

“Wait a minute!”

Of course, senpai didn’t just leave us alone and also entered the game center with us.

“Oh, sorry for leaving you guys alone, but when I see a game center, the blood of a gamer starts to boil within me, so I’m going to play some fighting games over there. Can you guys keep yourselves occupied while I’m gone?”

Saying that, Katarina quickly headed towards the area with fighting games. Even though we’re supposed to be here on a pretend date today… Well, I wonder if Katarina would prioritize playing fighting games even on a real date.

“Oh well. Senpai, let’s play something too.”

“Y-Yeah! But I don’t really come to game centers often, so I don’t really know much about them…”

“Is that so?”

As someone who loves games, it was surprising to me that there are people like her who aren’t really interested in them. But I guess game centers have been losing their popularity lately, and fewer people choose them as an option for leisure activities.

“Yeah, I’m not really interested. But as long as I’m with Sanada-kun, anywhere is fun, so it’s not a problem!”

“Huh? T-Thank you…”

Suddenly, hearing something nice from senpai, I was surprised and turned my face away. Ah, I was really happy and feeling high, but I couldn’t show it to senpai now. But I had to find some way to release this feeling…

“Oh, this big Kawa plushie is so cute! The hippo is so adorable~”

Senpai was looking at the popular manga “Kawa” plushie from the crane game with a hint of longing. Judging by the machine, I think it would be extremely difficult to get that plushie. In fact, the person next to us was playing the same kind of machine and couldn’t win it at all, just wasting his money. But if I could get that plushie for senpai, I could show her my cool side. Alright, I’ll get that plushie and show senpai how cool I am!

“Senpai, I’ll get that for you.”

“Huh, are you sure? But I don’t want to trouble you, Sanada-kun…”

“It’s okay, leave it to me.”

I immediately inserted money and started the crane game. Oops, I made a mistake because it’s been a while since I played. But if I get used to it, I should definitely be able to win. Alright, next one, next one…

“S-Sanada-kun…”

“This time… This time…”

As I thought about it and played, I got stuck in the swamp of the crane game. Despite it being a large stuffed animal, the crane’s strength was clearly weakly set, so it seemed that there was no other way but to push through with technique. I tried various things, but there was no sign of winning, and I ended up showing a disgraceful performance in front of senpai.

This is the worst… Even though I wanted to show my good side in front of senpai…

“Oh Yoshito, are you playing the crane game?”

After finishing the fighting game and seeming satisfied, Katarina came to our place with a satisfied expression.

“Katarina… I’m concentrating right now. Please don’t interrupt me.”

“Don’t be so angry. Let me try once.”

“Well, it’s fine… You can’t get it anyway.”

“Hmph, don’t lump me in with you… Watch.”

“Eh?”

I went through all that trouble, and Katarina got it in one try. No way… I just embarrassed myself and threw my money away for nothing!

“Don’t be disappointed, Yoshito. It’s just that you didn’t have luck on your side, and I’m just better at the game than you are. Here, a stuffed animal.”

Katarina tried to cheer me up, but I couldn’t say anything in return.

“Um… Senpai, this stuffed animal is for you…”

“Don’t be so down, Sanada-kun! I’m happy enough that you tried your best for me! (Sanada-kun looks super cute when he’s down. I want to hug him like a stuffed animal!)”

Damn it, I made senpai worry. If I have another chance, I’ll definitely get a stuffed animal in one try and show senpai how good I can be!
