The time when I forcibly slept with my friend's sister! - Chapter 34- Proposal?

Riku has been feeling that he has been watched by someone since morning.

He never caught anyone looking at him with any peculiar intention but there was that feeling. He was certain yet since it wasn’t anything serious, he didn’t take any step to catch the person.

He indeed was cautious but not paranoid.

After the chat with Miho in the morning, he received a text from Yui about whether they could walk to school together. But since she and Ichi always arrive at school by car, it would have been suspicious of her to suddenly ask her brother something like this.

Until Ichinose wasn’t also in the plan with Yui, it would have seemed suspicious regardless and Yui didn’t want any third wheel when she was with her Senpai so she dropped the plan.

Even though Riku could feel that Yui really wanted to walk to school with him and was quite displeased with his rejection, he could only try to soothe her by saying that he would make it up during lunch break.

‘When should I talk to Ichi… ‘ Despite how much he thinks about it, there was no specific time to talk about his relationship with Yui to Ichinose.

Riku decided that tomorrow he would go to Ichinose’s house after school and confess everything. He couldn’t go there today since Ichinose and Yui had to meet their parents.

Occasional events where the family members unite but not like a normal family but more like business associates. Riku had heard from Ichinose how his parents merely asked about their children’s well-being and whether they had (financial) needs.

They sometimes scolded Ichinose for low grades and such but only Riku knew that Ichinose intentionally get low scores from time to time to receive some extra words other than formalities from his parents and get to spend a little more time with them.

Yui is completely indifferent to their behavior since, unlike Ichinose, Yui doesn’t have a fabric of affection for her parents. Riku did try coaxing her about the topic, telling her that they had a lot to look after.

But whenever Riku tried pursuing his junior, Yui only replied with a single sentence,

“I don’t like seeing you supporting them, Senpai.”

Riku could feel how hurt she always seemed but Yui never allowed anyone to peer through her strong front and gaze upon her vulnerable side.

‘I hope…now that we are more than just friends, she could be more open to me… ‘ With such a hope Riku made his way toward the school with his fresh summer uniform neatly arranged over his body.

White shirt, dark blue summer blazer, and formal trousers which Riku had altered according to his comfort.

As he walked inside the school he found a familiar face waiting for him near the entrance.

“Senpai….” Yui beamed with happiness as she saw her boyfriend walking toward her with his kind smile stretching his lips.

She has seen different sides of him and each one of them always makes her heart melt. The passing people who were glancing at the girl were meaningless and borderline invisible to her since the spectrum of her vision was only limited to her Senpai.

“You should have waited for me inside. The summer heat isn’t good for your health.” Riku expressed his concern which made her heart even more afloat in elation.

Just hearing his voice especially when it’s spoken about her makes Yui incredibly satisfied.

Seeing the silly smile the girl wore Riku sighed before he used his free hand to pinch Yui’s cheek which could surpass the softness of mochi in comparison.

“Ah, Senpai…why?” Yui finally got out of her daze as she found her lover playing with her cheek with pure enjoyment in his eyes.

She didn’t mind being touched by her Senpai but it was kind of embarrassing to be treated like a kid.

“Just admiring how adorable my Yui-chan looks, early in the morning. Come on, let’s go.”

The healthy white cheeks soon turned red as Yui nodded with her head hung low and followed her bold Senpai who could flirt with Yui at any moment, without any warning beforehand at all.

Walking inside the school, both of them halted before their shoe locker but before Yui could exchange hers, something inside her Senpai’s locker, caught her eyes and her gaze turned solemn.

A piece of trash was resting under his shoes.

Riku noticed the change of expression Yui had and it didn’t take much time for him to guess the reason for such a drastic change in her mood.

With a sigh, he took out the pink envelope before he turned toward the silly girl and placed it on her hand which she raised instinctively.

“Do whatever you want with this.”

Yui blinked in surprise seeing how her Senpai reacted upon finding this letter when just some days ago he seemed to have some interest in finding the sender’s name.

She looked at him before her gaze fell to the letter, and again back at her Senpai.

Riku placed his left over her head as he spoke in a gentle tone, “I won’t do anything that could hurt you, Yui. If you are too worried then here, you can have my spare shoe locker key.” He handed the key to her before he went to exchange his shoes.

Yui already had the spare key but receiving it officially from her Senpai filled her heart with a certain warmth of happiness. It might not be too much from a general perspective that a boyfriend handed a love letter from a different woman to his girlfriend, but for Yui, it indicated that her Senpai was slowly accepting her as his partner.

Their last date in the park was the first step he took and today early in the morning he once again has left Yui rendered speechless at how considerate a person could be.

There couldn’t have been any better way to start the day~

****
Inside the classroom, almost everyone was engaged in casual chatting with their respective group with the topic of their conversation mostly about fashion, games, and fiction.

Ichinose and Riku were also conversing about light novels and sharing their thoughts on one of the new volumes which released recently.

Amidst the loud chatters, suddenly a girl with vibrant blue hair and a peculiar hairpin attached to the side of her hair walked into the class.

She caught the attention of many as some people seemed to have recognized her as well. But it didn’t stop the strides of the girl which only came to a halt in front of the desk where Ichinose and Riku sat.

The class grew silent as the girl closed her beautiful eyes before she exaggeratedly bowed her head and promptly yelled out her thoughts.

“I am in love with you, please go out with me….”

Many snickered hearing such words and Ichinose seemed uncomfortable since it wasn’t the first time he had faced something like this.

Riku smiled wryly as he got up to defuse the situation and handle it with care. But when the girl called out the name of the person she was proposing to, Riku found himself plopping down back on his seat.

“….please go out with me, Riku-kun!”
