Episode 4 It Seems That My Ex-Girlfriends Older Sister Wants to Make My Heart Skip a Beat

I was taking Rina san to her house and I saw my ex-girlfriend.

There is a man next to her. Probably a man Ive never met.

He has a slender figure and light hair.

W-whos that?..hm.

I ask Rina san for the answer while expressing my bewilderment.

However, there is no reason for Rina san to have an answer.

I-I dont know Ive never seen Yuika get along with a boy other than you, Takuto kun.

It seems that people abandon their thoughts when they see something they dont want to see.

I dont want to think about who the person next to Yuika is.

However, after a while, I started to think normally.

There was only one hypothesis that inevitably came to my mind.

In the end, it seems that youve found someone you liked..

When Yuka dumped me, she said, [I dont know if I like you anymore.].

She said it wasnt that she had found someone she liked.

However, looking at the current situation, I think that statement was a lie.

The reason why she broke up with me was because she found a new guy she liked.

It makes much more sense to interpret it that way.

Takuto kun

Rina called my name with a voice filled with sadness.

My heart was raging and I was falling into darkness.

It was hard for me to look up, and as I gazed blankly at the road, Rina san squeezed my hand tightly.

R-rina san? It hurts.

Im here.

Eh?

Takuto kun, you are not alone. Dont be depressed.

With tears in her eyes, Rina san sincerely told me.

Her kind words shed light on my heart, which was about to be dyed into the darkness.

Thats, right

Im not alone.

Yes, Youre right, thank you.

Yeah. Besides, youre still in a state where you dont know anything, right? Its just a pattern that tells you the way.

Rina san smiled softly and came up with a positive hypothesis.

Rina san is right.

Its too early to make assumptions.

I lifted my lowered gaze, as my heart became a little less burdened.

Huh? Yuika Is out of sight.

Oh, its true.

I lose sight of Yuika.

Theres a crossroads, I wonder if she turned there.

Should I ask Yuka for more details when I get back? about that man?

No, its okay. Now that were broke up, even if Yuika and that man were dating, I cant complain. I also started dating Rina-san right now.

What you do after a breakup is up to you.

Theres no reason to be tied down by your ex-boyfriend.

I see. Yeah, I guess youre right .

Yes. So lets pretend that we didnt see that earlier.

I think that would be good for my mental health.

Got it. Shall we go home then?

Right.

Rina san closed the distance between us so that our shoulders are touching.

The sweet scent of citrus fruits is in the air and it stimulates my nostrils.

I-isnt this a little too close?

Were dating, so its fine.

I-I thought that this kind of thing would take more time to do so..

No. Do you know how long Ive been waiting for?

E-etto

Somehow, Im Takuto kuns girlfriend now. From now on, Im going to make your heart pound.

With a thud, she puts her head on my shoulder.

S-seriously.

Is she really going to make my heart pound..

Yuika was the passive type, so Im not used to being the one whos passive.

Would you mind doing it in moderation?

You mean you dont want to flirt with me?

I didnt say that.

Then do you want to?

Ugh . Isnt it a little unfair to ask me that?

Answer me.

When I look to my right and left, I face the wrong way.

If I were asked to decide whether I want it or not.

I want to.

Youre surprisingly honest, Takuto kun.

Rina san smiled with a joyful expression on her face.

If there was a beautiful woman like Rina san and a man who doesnt like to flirt, I would like to see him once.

As I continued to follow Rina sans footsteps, I saw a familiar cream-colored house.

Well, thanks for taking me home.

Ah, yeah.

Then, next is school I guess. Im going to play in the classroom.

A-are you serious.

Yeah, Takuto kun, you can come along, you know?

Third-year classroom is tough for me.

It takes a lot of courage for a first-year student to step across the threshold of a third-year classroom.

Rina san seems to be popular with the boys, so I might be an enemy in their eyes.

I see. Then, see you tomorrow.

Yes, see you.

Rina san took her hand away from mine and went to the door.

And thats when it happened.

Before Rina san could put her hand on the doorknob, the door opened by itself.

In short, its indicated that someone had opened the door from the inside.

Rina san and I both stiffened on the spot.

Yuika, who was at the other end of the door, looked at me and Rina and blinked her eyes.

Um, why is Takuto here?
