My Twin Sister Who Looks Exactly Like Me Is Trying To Cross The Line With Me?! - Chapter 36 (Marking)

“Oh, it’s almost gone.” 

Yumika looked at my neck and saw that the bruise I got at lunch was healing.

“Don’t tell me you’re going to do it again.”

“I want to, but it would take a lot of work to do it every day…”

Yumika blurted out something terrifying.

It would be a terrible thing to be bitten every day.

“Maybe I should get my name tattooed. Physical marking operation.”

“Are you a demon?”

“Just kidding. Why don’t we wear something matching to mark each other?”

“That’s a good idea.”

The talk quickly took a turn toward warmth, with Yumika and I wearing matching things.

“Rings or necklaces?”

“Even though it’s a high school with lenient school rules, I’d avoid anything too assertive…How about a small pair of earrings?”

“That sounds good. We could buy a pair and put each one on either side of the ear of each other.”

“That’s great. Two for one. It’s perfect for us.”

Yumika and I decided to head to the shopping mall in front of the station.

I’ve never had a piercing before, but if it’s matching with Yumika, it’s not bad.

“You wear it on your ear right?”

“Obviously. If you wear it on your mouth or on your belly button, I’ll get mad.” 

I considered the possibility of the impossible, but it seems my fears were unfounded.

“I’ll pay for it.”

“No, I’ll pay. I’m the one who brought it up.”

“I’m the one who’ll definitely pay. No objections.”

“It was decided from the beginning that I would pay.”

Since neither of us was willing to give up, the winner of the rock-paper-scissors game gets to pay.

“Let’s go, rock-paper-scissors”

Me and Yumika played scissors. 

Since it was a draw, there was no winner. 

“It’s a draw.”

Yumika and I played paper.

It was a draw, so no winner was decided again. 

“It’s a draw.”

Yumika and I played paper.

I guess if there were only draws until now, our thinking and judgment is the same….

“…we’ll both pay.”

“Yeah.”

We twins seemed to play the same hand in rock-paper-scissors.

It made me a little happy, and I was wrapped in a feeling of joy that I had never tasted before.

When we entered the store where earrings are sold, a female clerk, who was bored on a weekday, approached us.

“Are you a couple? What are you looking for?”

“We are not a couple, but we love each other very much. We both came looking for earrings to wear together.”

Surprisingly, Yumika did not identify us as a couple and told her as it was.

“Huh, if you love each other, then isn’t it better to go out? At times like this, it’s up to the guy to take the initiative.” 

A friendly female clerk offered advice.

It’s none of your business.

“Please tell him more.” 

“Prospective boyfriend, please confess now. I’ll give you a discount if you do.”

I got tangled up with a troublesome clerk…….

But, Yumika didn’t want to laugh at this situation. 

“Sakiya, let’s get a discount and buy some good earrings.”

“This girl….”

Me and Yumika were in love with each other, and since we were together at school and at home, we acted with the assumption that we were dating.

But, we hadn’t officially declared that we’re going out.

Since we go on dates every day after school like this, I didn’t have the time to say that I wanted to go out with her again. 

“I know how you feel, but I’m sorry for pushing you into a corner, Sakiya. But there are words I need to hear directly from your mouth.”

I undeniably like Yumika and she feels the same way.

There was nothing more reassuring than a confession with a 99% success rate.

Still, I felt some tension.

“….Yumika, I love you. Let’s go out.” 

“I know. I love you too.” 

Yumika looked happy when she heard my words.

It was an embarrassing moment, but if Yumika looks this happy, I am glad I said it again.

“Well said. Good boy.” (sfx: pat pat) 

Yumika patted my head.

We were enjoying our own private world, but the clerk was staring at us.

“I’ll say it again myself. I love you Sakiya, will you go out with me?”

“Of course.”

Sometimes you don’t have to say it because you are twins.

Without bothering to declare that we were going out, we guessed that we wanted to be like lovers, and naturally we became a couple.

But even though we understood each other’s feelings, it seemed that there were things we wanted to put into words.

“I’ll take half the price already. It’s too bright and blinding.”

The clerk was unsteadily holding her eyes.

“Doesn’t it make you sick to look at such a Bakcouple?” 

“Love isn’t fun without stupidity, boy.” 

The clerk put her hand on my shoulder and advised me.

I’m not sure if she’s just bored or naturally outgoing, but her sense of personal space is remarkable.

After that, Yumika and I examined the earrings and decided to buy small earrings with stones.

The price was 10,000 yen, but halved to 5,000 yen.

From there, we split it further to 2,500 yen per person.

“Ha~ Pure bliss.”

Yumika seemed to be savoring the happiness from the pouch of earrings.

“Are you that happy with the piercings?” 

“That’s part of it, but I’m also happy that we were able to clearly convey our feelings to each other.”

“That’s true….”

I can understand Yumika’s happiness.

Because I’m feeling happy too.

However, the closer our distance becomes, the more dangerous scent permeates our relationship.

I tried to escape from reality, hoping that a UFO would suddenly appear and take us away from this world, but the reality in front of me continued.

I wonder if the world will end soon……
