When I Got My Heart Broken by a Childhood Friend, I Ended Up in a Romantic Comedy With Her Mother - Chapter 27 - Teasing / Cliffhanger

Chapter 27 – Teasing / Cliffhanger

I typed on my smartphone in the hallway.

[I’m sorry, Haruna-san. Today after school, I’m going to help Miho with her homework for summer vacation… I don’t think we’ll be able to meet up alone together.]

And she replied,

[It’s fine, don’t worry about it. Honestly, I’m sad that I can’t meet Ikkun alone, but… I’m happy that we’re connected like this.]

Haruna-san is really cute.

[That’s right, as a thank you for helping Miho’s homework, would you like to have dinner at the house tonight?]

[Eh, is that okay?]

[Of course. What do you want to eat?]

[Hnn… Curry or hot pot would be really nice]

[Then, let’s have hotpot. We can all enjoy it together.]

[Yes, that sounds nice.]

[Okay then, I’ll be looking forward to it. I’ll send a message to Miho.]

[Okay.]

After finishing my exchange with Haruna-san, I returned to the classroom with a relieved feeling.

“I did it~! Finished~!”

Miho’s slender body was stretching out.

“Oh, really?”

“Hehe, this is Miho-sama’s seriousness.”

“Then why didn’t you show it from the beginning?”

“I can only use it in a pinch.”

“I see.”

“Huh? A message from Mama… Ah, tonight’s dinner is hotpot♪”

“Oh, seriously?”

“Well, since there’s no helping it, I’ll invite you too.”

“Sure, thanks.”

With a bit of teasing banter, Miho and I leave the classroom.

◇

I went home with Miho and had dinner.

This has been a regular thing for a long time.

However, ever since the relationship between me and Haruna-san has changed, I find myself getting excited over these casual actions.

This excitement, of course, is because…

“I’m home!”

Miho said cheerfully at the door.

“Welcome home.”

Flap, flap, Haruna-san came running to the front door, her ponytail swaying.

Seeing her casual figure, I can’t help but feel a flutter again.

“Ikkun, too.”

“Ah, yes…”

We briefly exchange glances and then avert our eyes.

“Mama~, what kind of hotpot are we having~?”

“Well, since there’s still lingering summer heat, I thought spicy hotpot would be nice.”

“That’s good~! It’s hot and has a beautiful skin effect~!”

Unlike Haruna-san, who is calm and elegant, this girl is always loud.

I’m sure she’s just like her father, whose face I don’t even know.

“Um, Auntie. May I help you with something?”

“Hmm… Then, would you mind watching the soup boil?”

“Okay.”

“Ahh~, I’m so tired after studying so much~”

Saying that, my childhood friend plopped down on the sofa, turning on the TV.

“Wow, he’s so handsome. So different from Ippei.”

“Hey, shut up.”

“I mean, Ippei’s Mama is beautiful, so why is she so ugly?”

“Unfortunately, I take after my dad… Not that I’m saying he’s ugly or anything.”

“Hehe, don’t mind it♪”

“This bastard…”

Just as I was suddenly burning with anger, someone touched the back of my hand.

When I looked up, Haruna-san was smiling beside me.

“…Ikkun is wonderful.”

She whispered in my ear and it almost melted my brain.

Just like that, my whole body melted too…

But it’s strange.

The place that can be called the center of a man, the symbol of a man…

It was throbbing.

Seriously, men are full of sexual desire…

“Oh, Ikkun… Can you stir that?”

“Huh?”

“The soup. It might form lumps.”

“Ah, yes… I understand.”

Get a grip, me.

“I-Is it okay like this?”

“Yeah, that’s right. Take it slow and don’t rush.”

“Ye-yes.”

Haruna-san is right.

I still act like a virgin, even though I’m not a virgin anymore.

I want to experience it again with Haruna-san as soon as possible… Ah, what am I thinking!

Don’t think of vulgar things while cooking!

“Hey, Mama, are you okay?”

Miho suddenly said.

“Eh, what?”

“Be careful of Ippei next to you.”

“What do you mean?”

“Well, Ippei is a pervert after all.”

“Bufu…!! O-Oi, Miho!”

“Just now, weren’t you fascinated by Mama’s eroticism?”

“Mi-Miho! Don’t say something so…so indecent…”

“Who’s the indecent one here?”

Then, Miho’s voice suddenly dropped in tone.

Her eyes, which were cheerful and sparkling, looked dark and sunken.

The look in her eyes was staring at us.

It feels like my heart is being grabbed…

“…Miho?”

Both me and Haruna-san couldn’t help but let out a sound.

I never thought she would notice the relationship between me and Haruna-san…

“…It’s probably Mama’s body that’s indecent. Why don’t you make your gravure debut now?”

Gulp.

“This kid really… Stop with the jokes.”

“Then, why don’t Mama just go do Youtube? I’m sure she’ll make a lot of money~ Let’s build a mansion with that money.”

“O-Oi, Miho! Even if it’s a joke, you’re going too far!”

“Eh, but Ippei wants to see it too, right?”

“H-huh?”

“Mama’s slutty appearance. You’ve always admired this next door Auntie’s slutty appearance ever since you were little…right?”

Miho smiled.

There’s something immense about that smile.

I couldn’t help but make eye contact with Haruna-san next to me.

“…Ah, Ikkun, the soup.”

“Ehh? Ahh!”

Haruna-san turned down the fire in place of me, who was getting worked up.

“I-I’m sorry.”

“N-no, it’s okay.”

Looking at the two of us, Miho said,

“You know… You two seem like a couple.”

“”Eh…?””

“…Haha, it’s just a joke. That’s just so creepy, so don’t take it seriously~”

“O-ooh…”

“Sorry…”

“Anyway, I’m hungry, so hurry up~”

Miho turned back to the TV and started laughing.

At the kitchen, Haruna-san and I exchanged glances again.

Both of our cheeks were flushed in various ways, and our hearts were pounding.
