The Case of the Older Woman Next Door Being Way Too Lewd - 23

Chapter 23: The Older Woman Who’s Completely Here to Hunt Me Down

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

The morning after Mashiro-san went all out during her stream, it was Monday, so I headed to school as usual. I was still feeling my heart race from being kissed by Mashiro-san, but after getting some sleep, I had calmed down a bit.

“…Phew.”

When I opened my eyes, I saw the ceiling of Mashiro-san’s bedroom. As I felt the faint sunlight slipping through the curtains, a voice came from beside me.

“Good morning, Taka-kun.”

A sweet voice reached me, as if it vibrated my eardrums and resonated directly in my brain. Even though I had just woken up, my mind was strangely clear, and I turned my gaze toward Mashiro-san lying beside me. Since she was facing me, my eyes were inevitably drawn to her chest, which looked uncomfortably confined. If it had a will of its own, it would probably be complaining.

“Looking at my chest first thing in the morning… Taka-kun, you’re naughty.”

“No, that’s… ahem. Good morning, Mashiro-san.”

It couldn’t be helped when it had that kind of impact. As I quickly averted my gaze, Mashiro-san giggled and took my hand, pressing it against her ample chest.

“A morning bounce♪ That’s what this feels like.”

“…Yeah.”

This was bad. Not only was I getting excited by the softness, but it also felt strangely normal to be touching Mashiro-san’s chest like this. Of course, I would never reach out on my own, but being guided by Mashiro-san like this happened fairly often.

“Taka-kun, your thoughts?”

“…It’s soft.”

“Mhm.”

“It’s warm.”

“Mhm.”

“……………”

“And?”

Why are you smiling so happily, Mashiro-san!? 

It wasn’t a teasing smile, but one that genuinely looked happy at my reactions. Each time I said it was soft or warm, her smile deepened. And even now, she was still asking for more.

“…Um… it feels… comforting.”

“Mhm.”

“…If I could, I’d want to keep touching it forever.”

“That’s fine. I’ll let you stay like that until you’re satisfied.”

Her grip on my hand tightened slightly, pressing my fingers deeper into her chest. With a size that easily exceeded three digits, it was far too much to hold with one hand. The softness was such that it felt like it would spill between my fingers… This was both heaven and hell.

“Mashiro-san, we should probably get up soon—”

“It’s only six. We can relax a little longer.”

“……………”

“Hehe, sorry. You looked cute, Taka-kun… and more than that, I just wanted to spend a little more time being close with you.”

As she said that, Mashiro-san’s cheeks turned red. Seeing that made my heart thump again. Ever since yesterday, I had been more flustered than usual. When Mashiro-san finally let go of my hand, I thought I could get up, but then she made a small, cute sound and hugged me.

“Let’s stay like this a little longer, okay?”

She said that at a distance where our lips could touch if we moved just a little closer. I couldn’t refuse those words, and I nodded. Even though she said we would relax, we hadn’t been lying there that long. Maybe around fifteen minutes. But those fifteen minutes felt incredibly long and intense.

“Alright! I can give it my all today too!”

Watching Mashiro-san clench her fist energetically, I felt soothed as I finally got up. After that, we prepared breakfast together, chatted as we ate, and once we were done, I returned to my room to get ready for school.

After changing and finishing my preparations, I was about to head out when I saw Mashiro-san updating her social media. The post had a title like “A little healing for you as you work hard today,” and as usual, it featured a photo of her chest.

She was still wearing the pajamas from earlier, but the buttons that had been struggling to hold everything in were undone. In fact, the top was slipped off her shoulders halfway, and she was supporting her chest with her hand. This was way too stimulating for a healthy teenage boy… Although, considering everything I had already experienced, I couldn’t help but smile wryly.

“I’m heading out now.”

I sent Mashiro-san a message saying I was leaving and stepped out the door, but at the same time, she came out of her room. Now dressed in casual home clothes, she walked up to me and wrapped her arms around my back in a hug. When she hugged me without saying anything, it usually meant she was feeling lonely. I knew that from being with her for so long. We’d only be apart for a little while… although at this rate, I’d probably end up staying over again tonight.

“…Mashiro-san?”

“……………”

For several minutes, she continued hugging me. Her face was buried in my chest, so I couldn’t see her expression, and she didn’t respond when I called out to her. As I wondered what to do, she finally lifted her head. And then… just like yesterday, she leaned up and kissed me.

“Have a good day, dear… just kidding♪”

“…!”

Something felt off… I should have been most surprised about the kiss itself, but more than that, it was clear Mashiro-san had become even more proactive since yesterday. Seeing my flushed face, she smiled happily, but there was still a gentle warmth in her gaze.

“You might find it troubling if I say this, but… let me say it anyway. I’ll be waiting for you to come home, Taka-kun. If you can, I’d be happy if you come straight back without stopping anywhere.”

“I’ll come straight home as soon as I’m done!!”

Alright, no detours. I’d go straight home as soon as school ended. When I said that, Mashiro-san smiled brightly. Then she asked me to lean down a bit, and when I did, a soft sensation spread across my face.

“A little charm so you can do your best today. You can do it, you can do it♪”

That “charm to get through the day”… it was something else.

Thinking about that as I arrived at school, I saw that Souji had come earlier than me today.

“Ah, Takahisa…”

“What’s wrong?”

When Souji looked at me, he seemed a bit out of it. As I sat next to him and asked what was going on, his reason made sense in a way.

“I wonder if Mashiro-san has a boyfriend…”

…Of course, it was about that. Which meant Souji had watched yesterday’s stream. On his phone screen was the photo Mashiro-san had just posted, and he kept staring at it as he continued.

“I mean… someone with a figure like that, who’s good at talking, good at games, and can cook… There’s no way someone like that would be left alone. I knew that, but… man, it still kinda hurts.”

He muttered that, but then added.

“But I’m not gonna stop being a fan. I mean, honestly, I really look forward to these kinds of photos, and they cheer me up in a lot of ways. She didn’t say she has a boyfriend… so I’ll just keep supporting Mashiro-san!”

“…I see.”

There were people like the ones writing long messages yesterday, but there were also fans like Souji who genuinely supported her. Seeing Mashiro-san supported like this made me happy as a fan too.

“…Whoa, you’re looking at that picture again.”

A girl passing by muttered that as she glanced at the large image of Mashiro-san’s chest on Souji’s screen. Souji didn’t seem to notice, but the girl looked at him like he was some kind of creep. Her gaze seemed to mock him, like saying “That’s why you don’t have a girlfriend.” But surprisingly, it was Aragaki who spoke up to her.

“Come on, let’s go.”

“What? That was sudden… hey, that hurts.”

“Stop that before you end up feeling pathetic like I did.”

“What are you talking about?”

“……………”

At that moment, Aragaki-san glanced at me.

“You know, there are guys out there who are dating insanely beautiful women. And when you see that kind of woman, you will realize just how childish you are.”

“Hey, what are you even talking about…?”

With that, Aragaki-san walked off with the girl, wearing an expression like she had come to some realization. Thinking about it, both Aragaki-san and Ooi had changed like this. They no longer looked at us the way they used to back then. I wondered what had caused that change… Maybe that encounter back then had something to do with it.

“…Man, those boobs…”

At least keep it down, Souji. The girl sitting nearby is staring at you in shock.
