Living Normally In An Abnormal World

Chapter 83: Buying Clothes

“…”

“Hey…”

“…”

“Mother~”

“This one is nice too.”

“Mama, I think this one is good too.”

“Mummy, Sister.”

“Sorry, I’d like to have everything from over there to here.”

“I don’t need it, and there’s no place to put it!”

“Nii-chan, sometimes you should listen to Mama!”

“Huh!?”

It was a rare outing for the three members of the Kinoshita family.

The place was a clothing store, not a second-hand store, but a place where famous brand clothes were lined up brand new.

Yuuto, who was excited about shopping with his family for the first time in a long time, suddenly wanted to go home as soon as he arrived at the clothing store. It was like a dog that thought it was going for a fun walk but was taken to the hospital instead.

However, his mother and sister weren’t going to let him go, and they held his arms tightly on both sides and took him with them.

Yuuto, who usually dressed in drag, didn’t own any skirts or similar items. His basic style consisted of plain, solid-colored long-sleeved T-shirts, paired with either jeans or chinos. In winter, he would add a coat or a heat-tech undershirt, a simple and modest look. Despite this, his good looks made him appear stylish, a confusing situation. Additionally, among his fans, this “modest style” made it very easy to buy clothes that could be worn in everyday life. This style caused an upheaval in the apparel industry in a certain sense, but that’s to be expected.

However, his mother, Mana, and sister, Yuuna, thought that it was about time for a teenage boy like him to have some non-drag clothes at home. They didn’t want to see him in a skirt or anything like that.

So Yuuto became their fashion doll. Everything looked good on him, given his good looks. So they decided to go all out and buy everything.

Of course, Yuuto didn’t want any of it.

“No, Mother. I think this white dress suits Yuuto better.”

“A white dress! I see, white. Perfect for pure and straightforward Yuu-kun.”

“Huh, really? I think it has a bit of black mixed in, but…”

“Nii-chan, shut up and put it on, mmkay?”

“…Okay.”

Somehow, even the store staff had joined in, selecting clothes and talking to Mana. While they were aware of the popular fashion among men lately, they brought clothes that suited Yuuto. The fact that they didn’t bring clothes they wanted him to wear showed that they were well-trained Yuuto fans.

To avoid any interruptions while choosing clothes, the staff flipped the “Open” sign to “Closed” as soon as Yuuto and his family entered the store. They also left a note saying, “Due to personal reasons, we are not operating today,” driving customers away.

So, in effect, the store was now closed to the public, but Yuuto didn’t know that.

(This is going to take a long time…)

While his friend Luna Sakata made him wear two or three new outfits each time they met, and photos were taken, but that only took about ten minutes.

Glancing at the women, each was showing the other clothes that suited her, and they were squealing with excitement. The group of women, which had been around five people, had somehow grown to more than ten.

Yeah, it was definitely going to take a long time.

But seeing how much fun Yuuna and Mana were having, Yuto didn’t care, and he quickly put on the clothes and struck a pose that suited the outfit.

“How does it look? … It feels a bit embarrassing.”

His appearance was like that of an angel descending, or so it seemed. Perhaps it was an illusion, but a halo seemed to shine behind him, and pure white wings that shouldn’t have been there seemed to flutter.

The excitement of the women was fueled by Yuuto’s expression. Not used to the frilly skirt, he blushed slightly. Furthermore, since Yuuna, except for the other women, was taller than Yuuto, his gaze on them was directed upward.

At that moment, people offered their hearts in gratitude to the Lord.

The store staff, upon seeing Yuuto in the white dress, knelt down and began to pray deeply. There was no impure emotion, only pure gratitude for being able to witness such a miracle.

Yuuna and Mana, on the other hand, were silently taking photos of Yuuto in the dress.

Of course, as a family, they weren’t going to fall for this kind of charm of his. However, it was rare for Yuuto, who usually approached indirect kisses and upper-body nudity with a composed attitude, to feel embarrassed. The two of them were enjoying this extremely rare expression, their eyes narrowed.

The two of them thought it was worth forcing Yuuto to come along, but considering Yuuto’s lifestyle, there was no opportunity for him to wear a dress. Even if he did wear it, those around him would be affected, so they had to consider whether to buy it or not.

(Yuuna’s dress… it’s impossible.)

The person everyone thought was an angel was observing the people around him praying on their knees. However, all he was thinking about was how he wanted to see his angel, Yuuna, in a dress. But that would mean forcing his sister to dress up as a boy.

He quickly gave up on the idea, realizing that he couldn’t make his beloved sister do such a thing.

(Even without the dress, Yuuna is cute.)

As he looked at Yuuna, their eyes met, and she smiled broadly. He returned the smile.

(I think Mana would look good in a dress, but… too bad.)

Yuuto thought that it was a little harsh that he had been born into such a strict world.

In the end, they bought two outfits: the white dress that everyone had been praying for and a black long skirt.

However, unfortunately, there was no opportunity to wear them outside. The only thing that happened was that he was begged at home by the women, who had heard about it from Yuuna and Mana.
