20 – A prince who has never played with a man – 4
“Hey~ I’m really worried. What kind of man Eri will meet in the future.”
“…… It’s a useless meddling.”
Sayoko, who had been teasing me to the fullest, gave me advice just before dismissal time approached.
“No no, it’s real. A guy like you is definitely the type to be swung around by a guy. You can see it just by looking at it.”
“Me, what do you see me as? Even so, since I was in middle school, I have been the captain of the track and field team, and the members… !”
“That is the members. Men are different.”
Sayoko waved her index finger as she added, “Idiot.”
To a subject that he has never been in love with.
I didn’t like acting proud only in front of me. I was interested in what Sayoko was trying to say, so she waited in silence.
“There are a lot of bad guys in this world who will grab and shake you as they please as soon as they feel comfortable.”
“Bad…… Man? Are you talking about criminals?”
“No… ….”
Sayoko sighed in amazement as she spoke.
“I mean a man who only takes advantage of women by gaining the upper hand in relationships.”
“Use…… Doing… ?”
“That’s a lot. Whether it’s just the body or the wallet.”
“That…… That… ….”
It seemed like I had heard it somewhere.
Was it a drama? Or a cartoon?
“In the case of Eri, if she is aiming for the body… You don’t have to worry about anything.”
“What are you talking about!”
He slammed her desk and jumped up. Surprised Sayoko looked up this way.
“Why are you like this? Don’t get excited. Sit down.”
“My… Are you saying I’m not that attractive as a woman?! The body of a woman this rugged and as big as an old man has no value… !”
“No. You stupid Eri.”
I got angry without realizing it.
Actually, it’s something I’ve always kept in mind and cared about. I felt like I was stabbed in the middle of the day, and I was crying.
“Because you can subdue any man right away. I mean, don’t worry about that part. You stupid Eri.”
“Until I call you such an idiot….”
It’s definitely my fault for getting angry out of lack of qualifications.
Even the same inexperienced Sayoko… There will be much more knowledge or indirect experience in that field. I had no choice but to listen quietly.
“All I care about is the man in the other case.”
“Other… What if… ?”
“They are like foxes.”
Looking at this side seriously, Sayoko said. Fox?
“Fox… Is… Aren’t they cute animals?”
“Eri really doesn’t know anything. Would you understand if I said this?”
She was annoyed at Sayoko for being so proud, but she was unknown territory to me. I can only listen silently.
“b*tch.”
“………… !?!”
That word…… Have heard
No, but that’s….
“Even men… Can I become a b*tch?”
“You are a woman, but are you called a prince?”
“Ah…… That….”
I have dispersed the self-proclaimed fan club students who gather outside the playground every time they practice and cheer by chanting that name.
Just hearing that title made my body tickle, but now I’m used to it.
“There is. A man who acts as cunning as a fox and takes advantage of dull women.”
“…… Do you use it?”
“What is it? Either use it as a wallet or feel a sense of superiority when you see a woman in a state of trepidation.”
“……… ….”
It is a scary being.
A man like that really exists.
“That… But how do you tell a man like that?”
“Did I tell you earlier? Say fox It wags its tail gently.”
The fox’s tail wags.
It makes you want to grab it. Because just looking at it tickles my heart.
“I know that the other person is infatuated with me and I secretly seduce him.”
Swallows a gulp.
To think that such a desired existence exists.
“Actually, this type of man is far more dangerous. Women donate it without even realizing it, and they crawl around in trepidation.”
“………… Yes, Sayoko… But you… How do you know that?”
I’ve never been in a relationship before.
Sayoko, who was waving her fingers and making a lot of noise, stopped abruptly.
“… I heard from a friend.”
“I see.”
“Yes, yes! You don’t have to experience it yourself to know! If you study in advance and share it with each other, wouldn’t that alone prepare you!?”
“That’s right. Because practice is important.”
“Yes! Get ready for practice! We want to know in advance!”
Nodding her head, Sayoko shouted in an attempt to convince me.
***
It was a small talk that I didn’t really care about that day.
What is the reason why the conversation of that day comes to mind now?
“Eat together. Because I can’t eat something this big by myself.”
After receiving a large parfait, the manager handed me a spoon and said.
How did you know I wanted to eat that?
You can also choose the flavor you like.
The big parfait that I couldn’t eat while noticing the people around me. Coincidentally, at the recommendation of the manager, I tried it.
Every time I passed this street, I always wanted to try it.
“This is so delicious. Right?”
When our eyes met, the manager smiled and said.
There was white vanilla cream smeared around her smiling mouth.
“Ah…… Uh… ….”
This…….
To think they ate it while smearing it with cream.
There’s a strangely childlike part to it.
Even though I thought it was a little cute, I stretched out my finger and said it.
“Yes? Ah….”
At that, the manager wiped the cream with his index finger and put it between his lips and tasted it.
My heart sank at that nonchalant action.
What is this feeling?
What is that, such an unconscious act?
Too…… Too… ….
“Ah… Senior, let’s go together… !”
Isn’t that erotic?!
No, is it weird that I feel this way?
The manager simply tasted the cream on his lips.
That’s something everyone does.
Even if someone else had done it, I wouldn’t have felt this way.
Because the target of this turmoil is the manager.
Because I was having a longing first date experience with him who kept bothering me. It becomes conscious without use.
Yeah, I’m not weird. So, while consoling herself, she ate the parfait she had in her hand.

“…… Senior Sayoko. It’s kind of girlish.”
The manager said while watching Sayoko and Sakai from afar, who stopped in front of a street vendor selling accessories.
“When you practice, you have such a determined and tough personality. How can you smile so brightly over there? .”
Looking at the scene, the manager-kun’s expression seemed to contain a somewhat complicated state of mind.
To be honest, when we were together, Sayoko was always the strong practical manager and vice-captain of the track and field club.
She was a girl who wanted to have a normal relationship with a guy she liked.
And that’s me too….
“Same thing with that dress…. It’s the first time I’ve seen Sayoko-senpai wear such a short skirt.”
“……… ….”
But I am different from Sayoko.
That kid can go around with a man like that, but he can decorate himself with feminine clothes and smile brightly.
She said that she had even received a few confessions from what she had heard.
On the other hand, I… She had never worn fluttering clothes, let alone short skirts.
I just give up after looking at my body in front of the mirror in my room.
If I wear a dress like that, saying I’m feeling alone, I’ll just hear that it doesn’t suit me, that it’s different from my image, and that I’m awake.
I’ve heard countless times that I’m cool, handsome, and admired.
But that…… It was different from the hope I had.
From noble mtl dot com
“…… Senior. Do girls like brooches like this?”
After they left the counter, we stood in front of it.
“Are you asking me that?”
“Why? Aren’t you interested in this kind of thing, senpai?”
“…………….”
That’s interesting…….
There are a lot of them.
However, I have never picked out or bought one.
The manager was looking at the accessories one by one.
“Hmm…… How about something like this?”
Showing a brooch with a white flower model on it, the manager asked.
“……… ….”
“Senior?”
“That…… It’s not bad. Huh.”
It’s pretty.
To the extent that it doesn’t suit me.
“As expected, I don’t know just by looking at it. Senior, would you like to try this on?”
“What…… What is it?”
“It’s a deal that sticks in your head. Here is the mirror.”
As I handed it over, the manager looked at me with a mirror placed on the stall.
“……… Eww… huh.”
Careful, careful… Wear the hair brooch on your bangs.
Because it only interfered with exercise, the short hair she always kept was embroidered with a white flower pattern that didn’t go well with her.
“Uh…… Yes….”
Even a small brooch like this was awkward for me… I wanted to quickly turn the mirror
“It suits you.”
At the manager’s words, I lowered my head and awkwardly touched the tip of his hair.
“Is that so….”
“Do you want to wear it to school tomorrow? It’s very nice.”
“What… what are you talking about! I have to show you something like this, of course I’ll just laugh… !”
I hurriedly took out the brooch and tried to protest.
The manager smiled bitterly as he stopped me.
“No one laughs at me. Senior, aren’t you too self-conscious?”
“Ughg….”
“It’s just a brooch. Everyone will only look cute.”
“……… ….”
Cute….
Everybody….
I couldn’t do that, but I felt excited without even realizing it.
“Please give me one of these. Thank you.”
While hesitating while holding it, the manager finished his calculations and left his seat. No, I am… I couldn’t even say I didn’t need it and followed him.
My heart is pounding.
Is this what a date is?
Then I thought that wasn’t too bad either.
To the extent that I think it would be good to recommend it once a week to boost the morale of the members or keep them in good condition.
After that, I had a good experience watching this and that with the manager. Although he sometimes couldn’t concentrate and looked at the movements of the party in front of him.
It wasn’t bad for a first experience.
Until you enter that street.
“Mae, manager. Where are you?”
Wherever you look, lovers… Those who cling tightly to each other, not paying attention to the surroundings, enter a building that boasts a splendid and dreary light.
“As you can see. It is such a place.”
“……… ….”
“Let’s go first. I don’t know how far it will go.”
No, this is….
Maybe it’s too fast?
I’m new?
“Every… manager group. Wait for a sec… !”
I grab his wrist to take the lead.
I met his gaze as he looked back with a puzzled expression.
Those eyes were full of questions.
Like “Why? Didn’t you know it would turn out like this?” A look as if asking.
No matter how open-minded and fast-paced men and women these days are,… I’m still ready… !
“Senior… ….”
His eyes go down. I was sorry
My heart was shaken by that expression. Neither forcibly coercing nor desperately asking… Just the sullen look was shaking my heart.
“……… Do you hate it that much?”
Raising his head slightly, he pleaded… he asked in a trembling voice.
“Poetry, don’t you like it… I, I, I…….”
Ah, now I know.
I guess I’m being tricked.
This is the b*tch Sayoko talked about. Fox.
In this situation, Sayoko told me how to deal with it.
– Resolutely! Anyway, hold on to your heart and push it out resolutely! Got it? –
The manager gently grabs my collar and pulls me gently with such force that I feel like I can shake it off at any time.
“Senior…… Come on.”
I can’t…… !!
No, I know, but I can’t push it away.
This is the wagging tail Sayoko was talking about….
It wasn’t scary at all. Ah… what should i do
“Haa……….”
I raised my head at the long sigh I heard then.
“I can’t help it. Then.”
“……… Yes?”
The manager looked back and said.
Should I say “? Sayoko-senpai also pushed Sakai away who wanted to go in now.”
“……… ….”
That’s right.
That was the purpose the manager said at the beginning.
“I’m sorry, senpai. I only forced my greed.”
“Ah……….”
The manager turned around, letting go of my collar.
Could it be that I am mistaken now?
Did the manager just lead me with the goal of following Sayoko and the others?
“……… Senior?”
Looking back at me for not following me, the manager asked.
My heart didn’t stop beating.
Am I fooled now?
Or was it just a random misunderstanding?
I couldn’t figure it out.
There is only one thing you can know… It was that his existence had definitely entered me and had messed with my existence and turned it into a jumble.
