The Villain Who Got Pinned Down Until He Ran Out Of Stamina ~ This Time I Raised The Protagonist's Affection Too Much And Everyone Fell For Me~ - Chapter 56: The Villain Wants To Buy Swim Trunks

When I was young, I had a weak body.

By the time I’d entered elementary school, I had become so weak that not only could I not engage in intense physical activities, but I could barely attend school.

In those days, I spent most of my time alone in bed at home, which made me develop insecurities about communicating with others and deepening relationships, even before making friends.

My younger sister Riina was always kind to me, caring for my frail health by coming home early from school to keep me company.

After barely attending school, when I’d reached fifth grade, I began having more days when I felt better. And by sixth grade, I was able to attend school without absences.

I remember how enjoyable the three years of middle school were. I had even regretted missing school due to fevers.

Studying, physical activities, and being able to talk with others… I became absorbed in all the things I couldn’t do when I was sickly, and before I knew it, I was labeled as the “perfect person” who could handle everything effortlessly.

I wasn’t really a perfect person. But on the surface, I was able to handle many things perfectly, so it couldn’t be helped that people thought of me that way.

A perfect person shouldn’t show any weaknesses. But I… still wanted to depend on someone.

Rustle, rustle…

“Huh? They’re really not here…”

Having started summer vacation, I woke up a bit late, finished breakfast, and then searched throughout my apartment.

What was I looking for?

“I want to go to the beach or pool, but I can’t find my swim trunks.”

Yes, swim trunks. Summer meant pools and beaches. Swim trunks were essential for playing there. But while I had the school-issued swimwear, I couldn’t find my personal swim trunks…

“Hibari~ Do you know where my swim trunks are? I’ve looked everywhere but can’t find them.” 

“Yuji-sama’s swim trunks. I haven’t seen your brief-style ones.” 

“I mean the half-pants style!”

Brief-style trunks would show too much bulge!!

“If you’ve searched and couldn’t find them, then I don’t know.” 

“I see.”

That Kasajima guy, didn’t he even have swim trunks? No, being rich, maybe he just bought new ones every year…

Anyway, if I didn’t have swim trunks, I’d have to buy new ones.

“I guess I’ll go shopping for swim trunks and some beach toys tomorrow.” 

“Yuji-sama. I’m sorry, but I have business tomorrow, so I won’t be able to drive you.”

“Is that so… I understand. Don’t worry about me, please attend to your business.” 

“Thank you very much.”

Hibari also had her private life, and I had told her that when she informed me, I would prioritize her needs. That’s right. I should give Hibari a maid vacation period, calling it summer break, so she could spend time freely.

“I might invite Yuito to go swim trunks shopping with me.”
