Chapter 443 – Surprise Confession

Lenka was sitting in a very discreet posture, with her knees bent to one side.
She doesn’t look like a proper young lady, but it was very funny how she looked at me carefully and turned her head indifferently every time our eyes met.

I’m angry, but I’m also embarrassed… That kind of feeling.
Currently, Lenka is showing the typical tsundere cliché.

A situation where we face each other at the table in front of us.
Was the atmosphere very awkward? She gulped down the water she had given her and pointed to the figure box placed in the corner of her living room.

“Aren’t you going to install it?”

“I’ll do it later.”

“That’s right. “It’s a nice house.”

“Thank you.”

“Uh.”

“Is it so.”

“…”

“…”

“Where is the figure you bought?”

“Over there on the TV die.”

Lenka turns her gaze to follow my finger pointing behind her.
She said after seeing several cute figures.

“Cute.”

“We lived together.”

“Know. “Don’t pout.”

“All right.”

“…”

“…”

“Just throw it away.”

She shouldn’t be laughing, but she keeps laughing, so the corners of her mouth twitch.
She told me not to die last time, and she still does now… Lenka is so cute these days.
You may want to rush in right away, but be patient.
The more you endure, the greater the reward.

“Have you eaten your meal?”

“No.”

“Shall I prepare it for you?”

“Uh.”

Normally, I would have told him that it doesn’t matter or that he could do whatever he wanted, but he suddenly agreed.
It seems like he really wants to be with me.

“Are you really going to eat it?”

“Didn’t I tell you to eat it?”

“That’s right.”

“Then give it to me. “You ate at my house too.”

“That wasn’t prepared by the manager, but by the manager’s mother…”

“Noisy. “Quickly kick it before you lie down here.”

“Let’s speak nicely.”

“Prepare it for me.”

It’s funny how the tone changes from command to request.
I wasn’t the type of person who would put a metal plate on my face like this, but now that I’m home, I’m starting to express my emotions a lot.
Of course, for a Lenka, I do a lot, but I can’t compare it to others.

“All right.”

“But do you make side dishes alone?”

I answered Lenka’s next question by shrugging her shoulders.

“No.”

“Will you order it?”

“No.”

“Then let’s just eat?”

“There are side dishes in the refrigerator.”

“They said they don’t make it and eat it.”

“Miyuki’s parents gave it to me.”

“Ah… I guess you’re close with Hanazawa’s parents?”

“Well… Right.”

“You two are childhood friends… Not like that. Was it last year? At that time, Miura said that you and Hanazawa had recently become acquainted…”

Tetsuya, how far is this bastard sending his cold butt balls flying?
Wouldn’t that be the time when Tetsuya was at the peak of his affection for Lenka and was wagging her tail?
Then you can just talk about yourself, why bother talking about me and Miyuki?

Looking at Lenka’s reaction, it doesn’t seem like he was gossiping about me behind my back, but I can’t understand his psychology.
I think it feels like a build-up to do some preliminary work before damaging my reputation.

That sinister bastard may seem to have no presence, but if you look closely, that’s not the case.
I never thought it would be mentioned in a situation like this… It’s very eye-catching.

“It was close to my house, so we went in and out often, so we became close friends.”

“Okay…?”

“Yes. I’ll prepare it for you now, will you wait a moment? “If you want to take a shower, there is a bathroom next to the kitchen, so you can go there.”

“I will not.”

“Okay then.”

“No, I want to do it.”

“Are you going to do it? “Are you saying you won’t?”

“You’re saying you’re going to do it. “Is your understanding that bad?”

“I don’t think there’s any need to add an afterword.”

“Then cancel.”

Why does Lenka, who is so shameless, look so cute…
In the past, she would have said, “What should I do?”, But it’s also admirable to see her change her words obediently.

“Don’t you know that once you say something, you can’t take it back?”

“I picked it up because it was canceled.”

“You’re being too pushy.”

“Shut up. Are you the only one who will do it?”

Why does Lenka, who acts childish, look so cute?
Today, Lenka had too many elements that suited her taste.
She let out a laugh as she opened the refrigerator door and I took out several containers of side dishes, along with her instant rice from her drawer under the sink and presented it to her.

“Can you put it in the microwave for 2 minutes?”

“Just rice?”

“Yes.”

“What about side dishes?”

“It’s meat, and I’m going to fry it in a frying pan. Heat up what needs to be heated again. “I’ll take care of it.”

“Okay.”

Lenka took her instant meal and put his face close to her microwave.
I’m looking at each button carefully, and I think I’m looking for a menu to heat rice.

“Just turn it on for two minutes.”

“Oh yeah.”

“I told you, but you forgot?”

Lenka opened the rice wrapper with a puzzled expression and operated the microwave.

“Shut up…”

And then she started swearing at me without even looking at me,

“Shut up.”

I felt like I had gone too far, so I adjusted the level myself.
I turned my head to see her behavior and bit her lower lip, pretending to make her sneeze.

I don’t want to send Lenka. Should I just tell him to sleep for a day?
Acting like you’re going to have a relationship and then not doing it is part of neglect, but I don’t think it’s a bad thing.

**

“It’s delicious.”

Lenka’s impressions after tasting Midori’s seasoned meat.
She said as I smiled my gentle smile at her.

“Yes? Eat a lot.”

“Uh.”

“Yes. “If it’s not enough, I eat one more bowl.”

“Not really. No… It’s not that it doesn’t taste good, it’s just that my stomach isn’t that big…”

Lenka, who gave an indifferent answer, was shocked and hastily corrected her words.
It seemed like he was worried that if he said it wasn’t good, it would sound like Midori’s side dishes weren’t tasty.
Her intention was to act like a good girl. So don’t bother trying to catch her.

“All right.”

She had turned off the TV, so the living room was very quiet.
In a place where I could only hear the sound of the air conditioner running at low speed, the woman who was eating her meal, playing with her chopsticks, looked at me and opened her mouth.

“Let’s finish eating and set up the display case.”

“I do. “When are you going to return home?”

“Why? Do you want to send it quickly? “Then I’ll leave right away.”

“I didn’t mean it that way. “Don’t be delusional.”

“You speak in a misleading way.”

“So it’s my fault?”

“It’s like that.”

“Is it so. “I will be careful from now on.”

A double wick lit up in Lenka’s eyes.
Normally, a lively conversation would have continued, but I took a step back and cut off any room for conversation… This had happened more than once or twice in the past few days, so it seemed like my patience had reached its limit.

Widely.

Lenka nervously put down her chopsticks on her table and asked with a frown on her face.

“What are we going to do?”

“What?”

Are you annoyed with me for being so oblivious?
She glared at me with her burning eyes, sighed, and picked up her chopsticks again.

“No.”

Unlike before, she picked up a large portion of her rice and brought it to her mouth.
She said, having done her part in an instant, adding a little bit of exaggeration to her mouth and making a crunching sound.

“Ate it all.”

“Already?”

“Uh.”

“Then do you want to brush your teeth?”

“I don’t have a toothbrush.”

“If you go into the big bathroom, there’s a storage closet, right? If you open the one on the far left, there is a new toothbrush. Take it out and use it.”

“Okay, eat it quickly.”

“Why?”

“Get out.”

“Where?”

“The hotel.”

“Hotel?”

“We went there often.”

“Why are you there all of a sudden?”

“Let’s do what you like.”

“What is that?”

“Do I have to say that out loud? “Why don’t you stop pretending you don’t know?”

Ah… Our Lenka.
Do you think the reason I’m doing this is because of my body?

No, that’s not it. I think he’s offering me a hand of reconciliation in his own way.
I think it would be good to think that her inclination to express her emotions and her complaints when she was in a heated state were expressed in that form.

In any case, Lenka’s suggestion was a bit difficult to answer.
If I refuse outright, Lenka’s pride will be greatly damaged.
But I feel like it’s too obvious to say yes.
She doesn’t answer and when she confronts Aesthetics, Lenka says she knew that would happen and she will be elated.

After being bullied the whole time, you hit the counter.
Of course, there was no intention to embarrass me at all, but it was quite enough.

“I’m a little embarrassed by that all of a sudden.”

“Once this is over, we will stop doing such protests from tomorrow.”

“What did I protest?”

“You don’t even receive a call, and you just answer calmly.”

“The reason I didn’t receive a call was because I was busy, and the reason I answered calmly was…”

“Shut up.”

“Yes.”

“Look at this. “It’s like that again.”

“I told you to shut up, so why are you fighting again?”

“Don’t shut up then.”

“Is your mouth open?”

“Do you want to die? “Are you kidding me now?”

“No?”

“… He’s really annoying, isn’t he? So, are you going to do it or not?”

“Hmm… Did you just make the suggestion because the manager wanted it? Or did you just say it because you thought I wanted it?”

“Yeah…”

Lenka’s mouth slowly closed as she trailed off.
To answer the former, she feels like she’s clinging, and to answer the latter, she feels like she’s teasing her body too lightly, causing her to feel embarrassed… It’s clear in her eyes that she’s having such internal troubles. It looks like

While Lenka was hesitating, I poured the last of her food into her mouth and pointed to the box she had bought as a gift.

“How do I install this?”

“…You have to assemble it first…”

“Then shall we assemble it together?”

“There’s no need to do it together… Just fit it into the groove and it’s done in less than a minute…”

“Still, we do it together. “Okay?”

“No, well… Or so…”

The way he smiles knowingly when I change the subject is so refreshing that I want to bite him.
Now does Lenka know that she is twisting her hair on one side?

“Wait a minute. “I’ll clean it up right away.”

“… I’ll help too.”

“That’s Okay. “All you have to do is put it in the sink.”

“…”

Her mouth pouting, she watched silently as I cleared the table.
I think I’m very embarrassed by what I said out of anger without thinking, so I’ll think about it a little deeper…
She thought this before, but contrary to her appearance, Lenka has the weakest mentality among the heroines.

After finishing cleaning up and folding the legs of the table and putting it in the corner, I brought a box and placed it between Lenka and me.
As I was tearing off the tape on the box and taking out the acrylic plate with the protective film attached, Lenka, who was watching me with her arms crossed, let out a quiet voice.

“Hey.”

“Why?”

“… That…”

“What?”

“… I will not.”

“I beg your pardon? I can not hear well.”

Her puzzled face caught my attention as I placed my hand on her ear and brought her head closer to Lenka. She chewed her lip and squeezed her eyes shut.
Then he raised his voice so that I could clearly understand.

“I’m sorry. “What I just said was a mistake…”

There is a limit to my patience.
I have an overwhelming urge to hug Lenka tightly and pat her whole body.
I answered, forcibly suppressing the muscles around my mouth that were twitching against my will.

“I knew.”

What kind of courage did you gain from seeing the new tone of voice and faint smile?
Pursing her red lips, she slowly turned her gaze and spoke.

“Because I really, really hate you?”

“Yes.”

“But not today.”

Although he didn’t say anything directly that he liked him, his sincerity was fully conveyed…
It was a confession full of moe elements that made all the laughter I had been holding in burst out in an instant… It was such a sad confession.

“Do not laugh…! Shut up…! If you laugh one more time, I’ll kill you…!?”

The sight of her pouting with her completely flushed face was the most adorable thing she had shown in months.

She also liked Lenka’s spontaneous confession that she heard at the hotel, and she is satisfied with this now.
This paradoxically makes you want to neglect it even more.
I wonder what the limits of Lenka are.

Still, I’ll have to stop here for today.
I can see in her eyes that Lenka has made a big decision, so she can’t be cold anymore.
With that thought in mind, I silently tapped my cheek.

Then, her whole body trembling, she approached me, carefully moving her knees.
Then she placed her lips on my cheek very, very lightly, so lightly that I could barely feel it.

“It’s okay…? “Are you satisfied now, you piece of trash…?”

Lenka has a shameful expression that is clearly the exact opposite of her true intentions.
I gently tapped her jeans a couple of times and she shook her head.

“Yes, that’s nice.”

“Code… If you plug it in, the LED will come on… So you can plug it in or not…”

It’s very nice to hear Lenka’s muttering as she points to the outlet in my hand.
This is what I wanted Lenka to look like, and I am glad that her quota was filled today.
