Pretend Lovers 5
“…is that Tenjō-san!?”
Why is she here?
Did she secretly follow ?
No, there’s no other explanation. There’s no way I could mistake her.
I called Tenjō-san on the phone.
Sure enough, the woman brought her smartphone to her ear.
『Hello, Yuunagi-kun. What’s wrong?』
“Where are you right now, Tenjō-san?”
『Uh, at ho.』
“Really?”
『Why are you doubting ?』
“Turn to your left and then look up.”
『Ah?』
Obediently, Tenjō-san did as I instructed. She quickly noticed waving from above.
『What, when did you notice ?』
“I realized it when you turned down those guys just now. How long have you been following ?”
『Following you? That sounds so bad. I’m just out shopping on my day off.』
“All the way to Odaiba? Where the two of us going to?”
『It’s just a coincidence.』
“Even going so far as to wear sunglasses?”
『I guess the sun is strong today?』
“We’re inside a building.”
『It’s also fashionable.』
“Are you going to keep making excuses?”
『…I’m sorry.』
She put her hands together in a gesture towards .
“Tenjō-san, you really stand out, even from afar. It confirms that you are a beautiful woman. If you’re serious about tailing soone, you should consider a more thorough disguise.”
『Don’t be angry.』
“I’m not angry, though.”
『I was just worried about the two of you and ended up coming here.』
“Do you still not trust ? Nothing weird will happen.”
『I’m worried about Kaguya-chan.』
That response was unexpected.
Before I could confirm the true intention behind it, Kaguya finished her shopping and ca out.
I ended the call.
“The size of my chest has gotten bigger.”
“There’s no need to report everything.”
“Oh, no need to report? You can tell just by looking? Yuu-kun, you closet pervert.”
“Of course not!”
If I had the ability to discern cup sizes through clothes, I’d want it too.
Before moving on to the next clothing store, I glance down at the lower floor.
Tenjō-san’s figure had already disappeared.
While accompanying Kaguya in choosing her clothes, I can’t help but search for Tenjō-san out of the corner of my eye.
Every ti I spot her hiding and observing from a position that’s out of my line of sight, I send her a ssage.
It’s like a ga of hide and seek.
【Reiyu: Ugh, I thought I wouldn’t be found this ti.】
【Yuunagi: I saw a subtle reflection in a nearby mirror.】
【Reiyu: That’s annoying. Next ti for sure!】
It seems Tenjō-san is quite enjoying this kind of exchange.
However, soone as conspicuous as her is not suited for hide and seek.
【Yuunagi: Maybe you’d be less noticeable if you pretended to be a mannequin?】
“Hey, Yuu-kun, are you listening? Which color suits better?”
Kaguya was holding dresses of different colors in each hand.
“Either one would suit you.”
“That’s not helpful. I want to know the specific reasons why you recomnd one.”
“Just wear what you like. You’re the one wearing it, Kaguya.”
“I want you to say you like it, Yuu-kun!”
Won’s fashion is more difficult than n’s due to the wider range of choices.
I can barely make a judgnt if sothing is extrely ill-fitting, too flashy in color or pattern, or doesn’t fit right, but when it cos to combining items, I don’t know what to say.
After all, with Kaguya’s looks and figure, she can pull off most clothes, and her choices mostly aren’t off, so it cos down to personal preference.
And I have nothing to say about a woman’s clothing preferences.
“I think it’s good enough if it suits the person wearing it.”
“That’s a vague answer.”
“Then choose the one that makes you feel more excited when you wear it.”
“Hmm, I like this color, but I already have sothing similar, and the other one is…”
She was earnestly struggling to decide, holding clothes up to herself in front of the mirror.
“Maybe I should just buy both.”
“If you can’t decide, why not try them on and compare?”
“Good idea. Wait for .”
“Take your ti. I’ll just wander around aimlessly again.”
“Okay.”
With the two outfits in question, Kaguya entered the fitting room.
In the anti, I scanned the floor to searchfor Tenjō-san.
I walked around the n’s clothing section but still couldn’t find her.
As I was looking around, I was suddenly approached.
“Wait, Nishiki?”
I turned around when my na was called and saw Kuhouin Akira and Mayuzumi Ririka.
“It’s Nikki! What a coincidence. What are you doing here?”
“That’s my line. It’s rare to see you two out together.”
“I invited you out after the tests, rember? And you said no, Nikki.”
“I see.”
I was surprised that we ended up in the sa place.
“So, who are you here with, Nikki?”
“Ririka. Don’t pry too much.”
“I’m curious. Surely Nikki, you’re not here alone.”
“Yuu-kun, I’ve made my decision!”
Kaguya returned from the fitting room with a basket in hand.
When Kaguya saw Akira and Mayuzumi-san talking to , she suddenly beca grumpy.
“Who? Hitting on Yuu-kun? That’s annoying.”
She didn’t care that they were older.
She put the basket down at her feet, seemingly ready for a battle.
“This rude girl, could she be Nishiki’s girlfriend?”
Akira’s tone was also slightly combative.
The air around her was more prickly than usual.
“That’s right! Exactly!”
Kaguya energetically lied. She quickly clung to my arm, trying to show how close we were.
Why does she continue to act like we’re lovers even in front of my friends?
Are you trying to embarrass your brother?
Stop it, it could affect my school life if weird rumors start spreading at school.
“No, she’s my stepsister.”
” “Stepsister!?” “
At my answer, both of them exclaid in a loud voice.
“Kaguya. These are my high school classmates, Kuhouin Akira-san and Mayuzumi Ririka-san.”
Even as I introduced them, Kaguya remained on guard.
At least say hello.
“Hmm, you don’t look much like Nishiki.”
“She’s my stepsister from my parents’ remarriage.”
“Is that so? Going on a date together, you must be close.”
In the midst of the tense atmosphere between Akira and Kaguya, Mayuzumi-san’s fearless attitude was really helpful.
