episode_0016

Two years ago, when Aki heard Jaehyun shout in front of her, ‘Me and Aki decided to get married!’ I thought there would be nothing more embarrassing in life than this.

But now I see that’s not the case.

I never would have thought that Aki would find out that she had watched a video featuring an actor who looked strangely similar to her.

“… … Uh, how did you find it?”

Obviously, all internet browser history would have been removed.

It was something that couldn’t possibly happen with my common sense, so I stammered without realizing it, but Aki didn’t answer and just looked at me.

“Wooju~chan.”

“Uh, huh?”

“That’s important now… ?”

Well, it’s not important how you found it… … .

“… … This.”

Aki glanced at the actress on the screen.

An actress who bears an uncanny resemblance to Aki is being brutally violated by a male actor while wearing an eyepatch and a gag.

He uses his long pigtails as a handle and is panting to the point where I wonder if he can do this. It is such a stark sight that my mouth goes dry just looking at it.

“Wooju~chan, this is what I like… ?”

Is this what it feels like to feel dizzy? … .

“Wooju~chan… ?”

“… … .”

I swear to heaven, this kind of maniacal sadistic play is not my type. Because my sexual fantasy is extremely ordinary.

The reason I watched this video was simply because it featured an actor who looked strangely similar to Aki, so I clicked on it without thinking, and coincidentally, the genre was one that treated women roughly.

“Wooju~chan, you like this kind of thing… … ?”

“… Oh, no.”

“No… ?”

‘I don’t think it’s true… It seems like he only says it with his eyes.

As someone who has normal, not abnormal, tastes, I felt very unfair, but I couldn’t reveal my true feelings in front of Aki.

It’s embarrassing.

“Then, Uju~chan, what are your tastes?”

The moment I thought that, Aki’s question struck me.

“… … Huh?”

“Wooju~chan, what are your tastes?”

“Ah… .”

I paused and thought about it.

Because it’s my taste.

‘… … Clasp your hands and kiss.’

There is one thing that immediately comes to mind.

But is it possible to say this out loud?

I’d rather die than confess my sexual preference to my pretty and cute childhood friend.

“Why can’t you speak, Uju~chan… ?”

“… … .”

If it were you, you could say… … ?

The words came out of my throat and then went back in.

It seemed like an unhelpful answer that would only make the situation worse, but strangely enough, Aki seemed to have a vague sense of my true feelings.

The proof is Aki’s next words.

“Atashi (I) is… … . A tight hug.”

Aki shyly but clearly and carefully added his preferences.

“Not just a hug, but enough to make you feel like you can never run away. Uju~chan… . Rather, I can feel without even saying that this person wants me… … . Tight.”

“… … Oh, really?”

“Ugh, that’s Atashi’s preference.”

“… … .”

“… … .”

I see

I have it firmly embedded in my mind.

‘Aki likes to be hugged tightly.’

I don’t know right now, but I’m sure I’ll have a chance to use it someday.

“… … Now it’s Uju~chan’s turn.”

“Huh? Me?”

“Atashi said… ?”

Aki looks at me with a warm gaze, saying, ‘So, hurry up, Uju~chan, tell me too.’

It may have been a one-sided question, but since he was first asked about his preferences, I had no reason to refuse.

‘… … ah.’

I never thought the day would come in my life when I would reveal my sexual orientation in front of my childhood friends.

I really didn’t want to say it, I really didn’t want to say it, but I half-forced my lips to part.

“I… .”

“Yes, Uju~chan?”

“I, that… . … … So, clasping hands and kissing?”

“Close hands and kiss… ?”

Even though he lived in Korea for 10 years, Aki tilted his head and looked up at me, as if he still didn’t know the word “hand clasp.”

“We are holding our hands together like this. Don’t you know?”

“Is it clasping hands when you hold hands alone?”

“That’s the original meaning, but what I’m talking about is a man and a woman facing each other and holding hands.”

“Face to face? How?”

“Hold out your palm for a moment. Don’t stick your fingers together, but spread them out.”

“Yes… . Like this?”

Aki showed his palm to me and spaced his fingers between them.

I placed my palm over Aki’s, cupped my hands, and clasped them together.

“If Aki also closes his hands in this state, won’t his fingers be crossed? This is the clasp of the hand.”

“Ah, love and happiness… ?”

“Koibitotsunagio Suru… ? Is that hand clasping in Japanese?”

“Ugh, they usually say it that way.”

“I see. I didn’t know… .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

I grabbed it to show you how to use the clasp, but when should I let it go?

I was slowly watching to let go naturally, but Aki wiggled his fingers as if he had no intention of letting go and then glanced at me.

“Wooju~chan.”

“Huh?”

“… … Since we’re already clasping our hands, if we just kiss like this… . Uju~chan, your tastes come true, right?”

Aki looks up at me with her big eyes blinking.

“… … .”

Strictly speaking, this wasn’t the hand-clasping kiss I wanted.

You don’t just want to hold hands and kiss, you want something that will naturally follow if you hold hands and kiss while lying in bed.

However, if I said that, it seemed like this atmosphere would end.

I don’t know why, but the current atmosphere is strangely strange, yet heart-pounding.

‘… … Is it because the video is still playing?’

In the video, the male actor is so energetic that he is giving his all to the actress by holding on tightly to the actress’s pigtails, which covers her eyes and mouth.

“… … Uju~chan, where are you looking?”

The moment I was momentarily distracted by the video full of flesh-colored images, Aki gently pulled my clasped hands and spoke bluntly.

The inner thoughts in those unique big blue eyes that look up at me are, ‘Why are you looking at other women than me?’ Is it ‘?’

“Wooju~chan, be honest. This is what you like, right?”

“… … No.”

“Uso (liar), I couldn’t take my eyes off this… ?”

“That’s it, well… .”

It’s like a man’s instinct.

No matter how pretty and cute your childhood friend is in front of you, if you don’t pay attention to a man and a woman naked next to them, it’s actually even weirder.

But Aki pursed his lips as if he had no intention of understanding that, or rather, as if he didn’t want to understand.

“Wooju~chan, you like all sexy things? So much so that even Atashi is treated as an afterthought?”

“Is that possible? For me, of course Aki is number one.”

“Really? Is it really number one?”

“Ugh, really. For me, Aki is always number one.”

“… … Then, prove it.”

“Proof… ?”

Proof, what and how do you prove it?

I looked at Aki, who presented only the goal but no means.

I thought that if I looked at it this way, it might show me a way to prove it.

“… … .”

“… … .”

However, Aki just looks at me and waits quietly.

They tell me to find the way on my own.

“Aki, how do you prove it?”

“… … .”

“… … What, can you at least kiss me?”

It was something I casually threw out because I often said it when I was young, but at that moment, Aki reacted loudly.

Aki wiggled the hand he was holding, and as if he belatedly noticed that I was watching him, he said, ‘Ugh… .’ He cleared his throat cutely.

“Well, what is that… . Isn’t it up to Uju~chan to think about it on his own? ?”

‘That’s what you’re saying… .’

I have been watching Aki by his side for almost 10 years. It means that when Aki is embarrassed and pretends not to be like that.

I nodded, having figured it out right away based on my previous experience.

“Okay, then I do what I want?”

“… … Ah.”

Aki’s mouth twitched.

While still holding hands with Aki, I gently straightened the slightly disheveled hair on the side.

I don’t want anything to disturb you when I’m kissing you on the cheek.

“… … .”

… … I’m nervous when I’m actually about to do it.

I think we did it often until I was ten years old, but after my hair got a little thicker, I probably did it less often.

I don’t know about Aki, who is half French and half Japanese, but I don’t know what spirit I had and how I kissed back then. Do you think it was possible because I was young and didn’t know anything?

“Wooju~chan… ?”

As I was hesitating, Aki quietly came to me.

‘It’s so strange… … .’

I don’t know how this happened.

On the computer screen, an actress who looks like Aki is panting, but I’m about to kiss the real Aki.

It’s a truly immoral situation, but it might not be so bad… . I also thought:

perhaps.

Maybe. Maybe.

Aki may feel better after receiving the kiss, and may allow you to add more to get into the mood.

I don’t know what that extra thing is, but it could be so, so let’s kiss him quickly and see how he reacts.

With that in mind, I made up my mind and got closer… … .

smart-.

──Son, why are the cookies and milk in the hallway~?

“… … !”

“… … .”

I was about to kiss him but stopped.

──Are you both in the room? Can I come in?

“Ah, that… .”

For a moment, I thought about pretending it wasn’t there at all, but since my mother, who was in the living room, came up here, it seemed like there would be no point in doing so.

You might not know if you brought cookies and milk into the room, but if they were left outside, you would definitely come in even if you were curious as to why.

Deciding that, I quickly opened my mouth before my mother got suspicious.

No, I tried to open my mouth.

──Since when did he open the door himself? Okay, if you’re inside, I’ll go in.

Mom said before I could even open my mouth.

Suddenly-!

He opened the door himself and came in.

“… … !”

“… … .”

“… … .”

Aki sitting in front of the computer.

Me standing next to him.

And my mom holding my door handle.

The three people’s eyes met in midair.

If Aki had been covering the monitor screen with his body, I wouldn’t have been able to see it, but I couldn’t because he moved his chair to hold hands with me.

In other words, Mom watched the entire video playing on the monitor.

“… … Son?”

“Yes… .”

After thinking that, I moved my mouth and answered.

“If you were studying, shouldn’t you have told me in advance? Then mom wouldn’t have bothered to come in.”

What my mother said when she returned was far beyond what I expected.

“Yes? uh… .”

I turned my head and looked at the monitor.

By the way, on the monitor that should have been playing such a video, instead of a typical actress, a famous math instructor with half a bald head was giving a heated lecture.

‘… … uh?’

“Oh, is your mother here? I’m sorry, I should have told you in advance, but I guess we were both too focused.”

“Ugh, no. It’s the fault of the woman who came in while I was studying. Sorry, would you both like to have some snacks?”

“Thank you, I will enjoy it. Mother!”

“Okay, both of you study hard and have fun when you’re done. The lady will bring snacks from below.”

Dalkak-.

After saying one word, my mother closed the door and went outside.

“… … .”

I was dazed because I didn’t know what was happening, but then I came to my senses and turned my gaze to the side to look at Aki.

“Hey, Aki… ?”

“Why, Uju~chan?”

“By any chance, I was preparing in advance… ?”

“… … Hehehe.”

Aki proudly spreads out his chest in response to my question.

The voluptuous body covered in the school uniform stood out, but I wasn’t paying attention to it at all right now.

“Wooju~chan, do you know why Yukio happened?”

“… … Because I let my guard down?”

“Yes, that’s right. All incidents happen because you are careless. So, Uju~chan, as long as you don’t let your guard down, you’ll be fine!”

“… … .”

I should feel good because my mom didn’t find out, but why do I feel angry?

After thinking about it carefully, I immediately came up with an answer.

Well, if you think about it, it’s Aki who caused it, but I’m angry because he proudly disciplines me.

I came to that conclusion.

“… … Oh, really?”

“Uju~chan, Uju~chan needs to live a little more sanely… … . Ah, yes… ?!”

side-.

Aki caught me off guard and kissed me on the cheek.

“Woo, Uju~chan… ?!”

“Aki. This is what happens when you let your guard down.”

The moment I was about to add, ‘So don’t let down your guard,’ Aki, whose face was bright red, suddenly stood up.

side.

“… … ?!”

“Hehe, Uju~chan… ? Wow, I didn’t expect this… ?!”

Aki gives me a surprise kiss on the cheek and laughs quietly.

I felt a little good, actually, a lot of good. I intentionally didn’t show it and smiled with the corners of my mouth up, pretending to be angry.

“Okay, let’s try this, right? Okay, I accept the challenge. Aki… .”

“Nono, the challenger is Uju~chan. So, Uju~chan, it’s already too late to regret it!”

“… … Come here, I’m going to kiss you right away.”

“Clumsy, Uju~chan! There’s no way I can catch this Atashi at that speed, ah… !”

“Gotcha, Aki… ! You are really determined today… .”

Dalkak-.

“Well, look at my mind. There are cookies and milk outside the room, but I forgot to bring them again? Son, while eating this… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … Sorry, both of you, keep doing what you’re doing~”

Dalkak-.

thud.

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

* * *

Tiriring-.

[Son, when I go to Aki’s house later, shall I have a quick talk with mom?]

“… … Uju~chan, who are you?”

“My mom… .”

“Well, what did you say… ?”

“They say we’ll talk later when you go home… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

“Sorry, Uju~chan… .”

“Ah, well… . No, it’s my fault too. Aki, you don’t have to be sorry… .”

“… … Atashi, should I just sleep at Uju~chan’s house today?”

“… … .”

Are you saying that now, Aki… … ?
