Chapter 194

In the end, Kotori who absolutely couldn't refuse Ryuji, had no choice but to accept his kindness as a boyfriend and sent the clothes she bought back home.

　　When the two came out of the clothing store, a lot of time had passed. Originally Ryuji wanted to go see a movie or something, but Kotori had not forgotten that Honoka was waiting for her, so she wanted to return.

　　Ryuji frowned sadly, "Who is your boyfriend?"

　　Kotori found it funny, why Ryuji who had always been an adult suddenly looked like a child.

　　"Sorry, can I stay with you next time?" Kotori put her hands together and apologized sweetly.

　　Ryuji didn't let go easily, looked at Kotori and said, "No, I want you to make up for it!"

　　Seeing Ryuji staring at her mouth, Kotori knew what compensation he wanted.

　　She blushed again, first she looked frantically at the surrounding crowd, then quickly tiptoed and tapped Ryuji's mouth when no one was watching.

　　After a light kiss, Kotori turned and ran away without even saying hello, leaving Ryuji an embarrassed back.

　　"Pfft!" Ryuuji laughed. Even though he wanted to say goodbye, he didn't expect Kotori to be so proactive.

　　...

　　Ryuji returns home and sends the Baumkuchen he bought on his way to Mashiro's room.

　　Eriri and Mashiro are working on a draft in the room, though one is drawing a doujin and the other is drawing a manga.

　　Eriri is considered a senior in the industry, and can give Mashiro a lot of advice about manga storyboards.

　　At first, Eriri was teaching Mashiro how to deal with storyboarding problems, but as soon as Ryuji entered the door, Mashiro rushed forward like a pet welcoming its owner home.

　　"Be careful." Ryuji smiled helplessly, and hugged Mashiro who was hanging on his body with one hand.

　　"Mashiro, don't just pounce on men!" Eriri was undoubtedly jealous, damn it, she seemed to pounce on him too!

　　"Because Ryuji smells really good." Mashiro replied, "Does Eriri want to try too?"

　　Ryuji couldn't laugh, Mashiro was really 'generous'.

　　Eriri's cheeks flushed, and she said with embarrassment: "Who wants to try, he just came back from outside, he must be sweating!"

　　"Our relationship is good, but I will sue you for slander if you talk nonsense!" Ryuji was so dissatisfied, how could he smell like sweat.

　　"Who is talking nonsense, do you dare to let me kiss it?" Eriri blushed and shouted.

　　Ryuji's expression suddenly became strange. Is this what a normal woman should say? Are you an idiot?

　　Eriri also realized how strange what she said just now, and hurriedly waved her hand to explain: "No, that's not what I meant!"

　　Ryuji didn't remember it, not that he didn't know his childhood friend's character.

　　"I know." Ryuji put Mashiro down, and handed over the Baumkuchen he had bought.

　　"Ryuji, eat together?" Ask Mashiro.

　　"You guys eat. Remember not to eat too much, we'll have dinner later," Ryuji said with a smile.

　　"En." Mashiro nodded seriously.

　　Eriri hummed a little jealously.

　　Ryuji said with a smile: "There is also Eriri's part."

　　"Hmph, who would want to eat it!" Eriri was a tsundere as usual.

　　...

　　After leaving Mashiro's room, Ryuji received a call from Sagiri.

　　The corners of his mouth twitched, he was clearly on top, why bother calling...

　　"Hello?"

　　"Onii-chan, help me~" Sagiri's slightly crying voice came from the other end of the line.

　　Ryuji frowned, and glanced at Sagiri's room.

　　"I'm coming now!"

　　Ryuji hung up the phone and came to Sagiri's room, she was wearing light blue pajamas, with tears in her eyes.

　　"What happened, Sagiri?"

　　Sagiri looked confused, and said, "Yamada Elf Sensei, who said she wanted to see me."

　　Not long ago, Sagiri officially debuted as an illustrator, being in charge of Yamada Elf's masterpiece illustration, [The Dark Fairy of Exploding Flame].

　　Because Sagiri knew that Elf lived next door, and she was also a blonde haired girl, so the two became good friends in private besides work, and exchanged emails and Lines with each other.

　　"..." Ryuji didn't know what to say.

　　"So? There's no need to worry about such a thing."

　　Just like down the line, aside from worrying about safety issues, he might also feel a bit embarrassed, but he wouldn't be as exaggerated as Sagiri.

Just as Ryuji had participated in several face-to-face meetings with housemates before, even though he was being forcibly pulled by Tomoya, it was generally a good experience.

　　Like Sagiri, who already knew the identity of the other party beforehand, she didn't even need to think about safety issues, even if she was worried, Elf should be the one worrying.

　　"If I leave the room, I will lose!" Sagiri stuck to her bottom line.
