She is Reading My Thoughts Again Today - Chapter 83

It Has Been a Month Since Nao Kisaragi First Contacted Me

It has been a month since Nao Kisaragi first contacted me. I wonder to myself why this one month has passed by so quickly and slowly at the same time. I wonder if she will keep following me. I wonder what the future holds for me.

But well, this is not bad at all. I’m unexpectedly happy to have more people to talk to at school.

At first, because of her unique personality, I was trying to figure out a way to keep her away from me. Yeah that’s right, I tried to avoid her at first. Whether I like it or not, she can read my thoughts. Even though it is not her intention to read my thoughts, it doesn’t change the fact that she was the one who approached me. Even though she said it’s okay for me to avoid her, but she really doesn’t seem want to let me go.

However, when I talk to her, I found her to be a surprisingly pleasant person to talk to, and contrary to the rumors, her behaviour is quite normal. She worries about her daily studies, loves cute things, and even bounce around when she’s having fun. She is not my type, but she is definitely cute. The fact that she is always honest should be a plus point for her. If there are no rumors about her, I would’ve thought of her as a completely normal person.

But the fact is she can read other people’s thoughts, and that is the reason why there are rumors saying she has a habit of lying and accusing other people.

…I wonder why do I have the ability to inhibit part of her ability. I would’ve preferred something cooler like x-ray vision or predicting the future.

“If you have x-ray vision, then you can see what’s under schoolgirls uniform as much as you like.”

“…I wasn’t thinking about those things.”

In fact, I even can’t think about those things right now, because she is constantly reading my thoughts when she is around me. Besides, I’m busy thinking which ice cream should I buy on the way home.

“Is that so? Don’t you dare think about it, okay?”

“Do you really know all the things I’m thinking right now?”

That’s really bad.

“No, I’m just thinking that Hokuto-san is refraining himself to become ‘Nowadays adolescent high school students.’”

“That’s right, I am.”

“Why?”

“Because you are reading my thoughts.”

She dropped her jaw dumbfoundedly. Even though it is a very dumb reaction, she doesn’t look that stupid, perhaps it’s because she has such a beautiful face. In fact, I’m worried that something serious has happened because she is looking at me in dismay like that. Does this conversation remind her of something?

“What’s wrong?”

“…you’re such a kind person, Hokuto-san.”

That unexpected response made me flinch.

“Why do you say so?”

“Because you’re keeping that kind of thoughts out of your mind for me, aren’t you?”

“Well…”

It really isn’t something to be appreciated about, but it seems that she really appreciates it.

“Sexual conversation is an easy topic to joke about, but when they come from an unintended direction, it’s offensive, isn’t it?”

“Yeah, that’s right. It feels very uncomfortable.”

“Ah, you’re feeling uncomfortable?”

I’m glad that I refrain from thinking about such things. I don’t want her to be uncomfortable around me, and more importantly, I don’t want her to think I’m a pervert.

“It feels really unpleasant. To begin with, I don’t like talking about sexual things. There are a lot of times when there’s only one person in a relationship that want to do sexual things, you know?”

“Ugh, that sucks.”

It’s too much to know someone’s sexual desire even though the other person in the relationship doesn’t want to. Her tone of voice is clearly filled with irritation, well I can’t blame her. She didn’t read those thoughts because the wanted to.

If that’s the case, I should keep those things off my mind when I’m around her.

“I’ll try not to think about such things.”

“Well, thank you very much.”

She smiled softly and gave a small bow. Then the next moment, her mouth breaks into a grin.

“But I don’t mind if it’s something light, you know? Like ‘If only I’d been born in an era when schoolgirls wore bloomers.’”

“Whaaaaaaattt!?”

You were reading those thoughts too!? When did you…?

“…if it’s something like that, I can use them to tease you like this.”

“Give me a break…”

I take back what I said before.

It’s not good for my honor if she keeps reading my thoughts.
