The Story Of How I, A Gloomy Guy, Ended Up Surrounded By the Top-Tier Beautiful Girls In Class After A Seat Change - Chapter 124

As I was eating breakfast, suddenly the trio of beautiful girls plus Tanaka gathered in my living room.

It was only 8:20 AM.

According to Rui, we were supposed to meet at 9, but…sigh, these girls are always either too eager or careless, or something like that.

“Ryota, I’ll take your sausage!”

“Huh?”

While I was spacing out, Airi grabbed the sausage from my plate.

“Mmm, delicious!”

(She ate my sausage in one bite…)

As I watched Airi holding the sausage in her mouth, indecent thoughts started flooding my mind.

“Hey, Airi, that’s bad manners.”

“Yuria, do you want one? There’s another sausage.”

“No, I’m good. You’ll end up eating all of Ryota’s breakfast.”

Yuria, with an exasperated look, glanced at my meal.

“Wait, did Rui make this? And what’s with that apron?”

“Isn’t it cute? Ryota’s mom is out playing Sepak Takraw today, so I made breakfast for the Izumiya family.”

“For real? Rui, how close have you gotten with Ryota’s family?”

“Huh? We’re friends, so I think it’s normal.”

Normally, friends don’t cook breakfast for each other’s families.

“More importantly, Ryota! Hurry up and eat so we can go to the pool!”

“Okay, okay.”

Pushed by Airi’s enthusiasm, I quickly finished my breakfast and got ready to head to the pool…or so I thought.

“Wait a second, Ryota.”

“Hm?”

“I packed your swimsuit and towel in this bag. Here, take it.”

Rui pulled out a bag from somewhere and handed it to me.

Apparently, Rui had already prepared everything for me.

(She’s so thoughtful it’s scary…but come to think of it, I don’t even own a swimsuit except for the one we use in school.)

As I peeked into the bag, I found a stylish, almost retro-styled swim trunks inside.

“I figured you didn’t have one, so I bought it. I’ll just deduct the cost from that ‘thing’ from earlier.”

S-she’s way more capable than I imagined.

Ah, this is bad. At this rate, I’ll become completely dependent on Rui.

“Hehe…”

Rui gave me a triumphant smile.

☆☆☆

With everything ready, we headed toward the pool.

As we left the house, Rui somehow took charge of locking the door, but I decided it was pointless to care at this point and just kept walking toward the pool.

“So, where exactly are we going?”

“To the big leisure pool in the next town!”

“Huh? That place is expensive. Why not just go to the public pool?”

“Are you serious, Ryota? The public pool doesn’t have a water slide. How boring!”

“Yeah, yeah! I want to go on the water slide with you, Ryota!”

“Me…on a water slide with Airi…”

To think I could legally press against Airi’s huge breasts…what a blessing (premeditated crime).

I began to revel in the thought of feeling Airi’s huge breasts on my back, just like I did two days ago.

“Okay, let’s go with the leisure pool and the water slide.”

As soon as I said that, Yuria and Rui pinched my arms hard.

“Ryota, your dirty thoughts are showing.”

“Ryota, you’re riding with me, with my flat chest.”

Ugh…these girls completely see through me…

Besides, it’s not like there’s much for a gloomy guy like me to do at a pool full of extroverts other than ogle Rui’s belly button, Airi’s massive breasts, or Yuria’s thick thighs.

In the end, we decided to go to the big leisure pool in the next town and headed to the station.

(That aside…)

As the three girls walked ahead of me, chatting about the route to the leisure pool, I turned around and called out.

“Hey, Tanaka, you’ve been completely silent. Can we talk for a second?”

“S-silent? I’m right here! Behind you all!”

“Why have you been so quiet? That’s not like you.”

“Well…a girl like me, an introvert, gets awkward if I haven’t spoken to people in over a week.”

Huh…that’s extreme, even for an introvert like me.

But I kind of expected this from Tanaka, so I guess I’ll have to step up and help her out a bit.

“You’re a bit dressed up today, aren’t you? I never saw you wear a white one-piece dress like that in middle school.”

“S-shut up! Even an introvert like me has moved on from the jersey phase!”

Back in middle school, whenever Tanaka came over to my house, she always wore jerseys that looked like something a delinquent would wear.

Since she had a bit of a delinquent look herself, she was basically a delinquent back then…don’t laugh!

For the record, I used to wear jerseys outside of school, too, so it didn’t bother me.

“I’ve realized that wearing jerseys as casual clothes is lame, so I’ve been trying. I don’t have the fashion sense of those three walking ahead, and my body isn’t well developed, but…”

Tanaka glanced at the three girls and placed her hand on her flat chest.

Today, Tanaka seemed unusually self-conscious.

I guess it makes sense that, from a girl’s perspective, being around those three might make you feel that way.

“Don’t worry about it, Tanaka. You’re always saying there’s definitely a demand for ‘glasses girls and loli types’ in some weird ‘club,’ right?”

“I-I never said anything like that! I don’t even think about that stuff! And what’s with that ‘glasses girl’ thing?!”

When I joked, as expected, Tanaka snapped at me.

“There you go, now you’re acting like yourself, Tanaka.”

“…Sh-shut up! I just need you to compliment me, Ryota. That’s all I need.”

“Me? Oh, yeah. Well, you’re right about that.”

“Huh…?”

“I’ve got a keen eye for beauty as a gloomy guy. If I compliment you, other guys will fall for you in no time.”

“…Sigh.”

For some reason, Tanaka let out a big sigh.

“W-what’s that sigh for?”
“Oh, yeah, yeah, whatever, Mr. Virgin Ryota.”

“Y-you don’t have any dating experience either!”

“Well, I wonder…I’ve at least experienced more love than you, Ryota.”

“What? I thought you were just into BL! Come on, tell me more!”
