Chapter 71 Interlude, Higashimura Tadayuki And Nada Kyouko
"Ah, the reunion of lovers who were once apart was truly touching!"
Last night, when I dropped off Kurusu-kun at Hana-chan's place, Nada-san accompanied us. Hana-chan really trusts Nada-san.
Seeing the two embracing, with Nada-san murmuring "That's good..." while tears welled up in her eyes, I couldn't help but think, "I wonder if these two are going to have a wild time later, lucky them."
And today, when I dropped by the office, it seems Nada-san's excitement hasn't worn off yet. The reunion of lovers who were once apart, huh? Well, it's a situation that would bring joy to a woman.
But for me, when the time for our reunion came, I was informed of the harsh reality that my lover had been taken by a friend, conceived, and might be forced to raise the child. Thanks to the otherworldly transfer, my lover and I are separated and unable to meet.
The situation seems identical, yet there's this stark contrast in treatment...
Today, it seems Shibuya-san and Yoda-san are out, leaving Nada-san alone at the station. She's one of the few female acquaintances, so let's try asking her.
"Nada-san, can I ask you something?"
"What is it?"
"How does one go about having a lover?"
"Well, first, you have to meet someone you like, right? Then, you both need to develop feelings for each other..."
"No, I'm not talking about general advice. I mean me, personally."
Pointing at my own face, I ask Nada-san. After pondering for a while with her fingers on her forehead, Nada-san expresses her thoughts.
"Higashimura-san is honestly quite high-spec, you know? Working for a top-notch company and looking above average. Normally, you wouldn't have trouble finding a partner."
"Thank you, but the reality is really tough."
"Well, then there must be other reasons, right?"
"Yes, that seems to be the case."
"By the way, it's pretty common for people to be introduced to each other by acquaintances or friends when it comes to meeting potential partners, isn't it?"
"I think so."
"So, hypothetically, do you know anyone who'd introduce a guy who randomly takes photos of women in their underwear without their consent?"
"Uh, maybe someone like Nada-san?"
"That's terrible. Stay single forever, please."
Hmm. So, it seems impossible to get introduced to a girl through Nada-san. In other words, well...
"So, does that mean I have to hope for the rare case where a woman who's suddenly photographed in her underwear falls for that guy?"
"That's definitely not happening."
Not happening, huh.
"In other words, Higashimura-san has significant flaws in terms of personality when it comes to seeking a romantic partner."
Well, it's a very clear lecture.
"I see, it makes sense."
"Just..."
"Just?"
Nada-san smiled.
"Higashimura-san, who said 'Leave everything about Kurusu-kun to me' to Ohashi-chan... was kinda cool."
"So, does that mean I encountered a rare case?"
"No, that's not it. If you're always like that, you might be popular, you know? But I know your true identity, so it's definitely impossible for me."
"I see."
Summarizing Nada-san's words, it means that my overall appearance, including my looks, fulfills the elements that could have a partner, but there are some issues in terms of behavior.
"I understand thanks to Nada-san."
"That's good to hear."
"So, basically, you're saying that I should pretend to be a good person and deceive women, right?"
"Go to hell."
"Nada-san."
"What is it?"
"You surprisingly have a good sense of humor. I feel like I'm starting to like you."
"Thank you. Unfortunately, I have a boyfriend."
At that moment, Nada-san's phone rang.
She hesitated for a moment, perhaps because I was there, but eventually decided to answer the call.
"Hello? Yeah, yeah. Oh, I'm almost done with work. Yeah. Alright, I'll prepare something easy to eat and then come over. Yeah, see you later. Okay."
After ending the call, Nada-san apologized to me.
"I'm sorry, Higashimura-san, but I'd like to wrap up for now..."
"Yes, I understand. I'll also be leaving soon."
"Thank you."
"That call just now... It was your boyfriend, right?"
"...Yes, well..."
"From the conversation, it feels like going to buy food and then going to your boyfriend's place, right?"
"No way, this guy is the worst..."
"After this, are you going to have wild s*x?"
"We are! We're going to have wild s*x! Stop being so loud!"
"But seriously, filming is a no-go this time, right?"
"Not just filming, even watching is a no-go! And by the way, last time was also a clear no-go for filming!"
Nada-san is quite amusing.
