“So kabedon is kabedon, but it was not that kind of wall banging.”

I’m currently in the middle of a childhood friend meeting.

Currently, the childhood friends meeting was in effect.We were discussing how to deal with Iori and Aoi-chan without letting them make mistakes, and Yuika said kabedon would be effective, so we tried it, but apparently it was the wrong kabedon.

“When a couple is making out in the other room, I say, ‘No way!’ and you bang the wall, that’s what I call a kabedon.”
“Why you’re using the Restoration’s leading man’s tone was a mystery, but it sure seems to be working.”

“Right? If Iori turns into a wolf like Mibuuro, at that moment Kanata will come from this room and say, ‘No way!’ from this room. So all is well, all is well, the dawn of Japan is near, boy!”

“Eh, wait a minute. Am I supposed to do that?”
“Eh? That’s a given.”

I got up from the bed and said with a puzzled face.

“No matter what the reason is, if you do something violent like banging on the wall, I’m sure Iori will cry. I don’t want to do such a terrible thing to our cute Iori.”
“I don’t want to do that either! What is this girl doing trying to force herself into a dirty role?”

“Sacrifices are necessary in a revolution. I want you to make a sacrifice.”
“Sakamoto-san would never say such a thing. Also, I’m with the Shinsengumi at the end of the Edo period!”

“Tonight, Iori is bloodthirsty…”
“He’s not thirsty!? We would rather have him in a position where he is not thirsty! And when you say bloodthirsty, it sounds like some kind of…weird erotic gag, so don’t do it!”

“Eh? I didn’t mean it in an erotic way. What do you mean?
“Ahhhhhhh! I’ve been trapped by the Ishin side in a despicable trap! Help me, Hijikata-san!”
[TLN: I have no clue what these references are.]

I plopped down on the floor with my head in my hands.
I sat down limp.

“A-Anyway…dismiss the whole kabedon thing, dismiss it. There was no way I’m going to make Iori cry.”
“Mmm, I guess. I agree with you about protecting Iori’s smile.”
“Okay, let’s try a different approach.”
“Like?”

I crossed my arms as I pondered.

“It is true that stopping Iori is an option, but there is another person you can work with, right?
“Mmm-hmm.”
“For example. If there was a way to control Iori well, I would give it to Aoi-chan in advance.”

When I said that, Yuka suddenly gushed, ‘Huh!’ What? I looked at her, and she started laughing, holding her stomach.

“Ahahaha, Kanata! Kanata, that’s not fair! That was a surprise! Ah, my stomach hurts!”
“Ah, no…What? What’s wrong?

“What’s wrong! Because right now, Kanata… Aoi-chan…!”
“Ah…!?”

I finally realized my mistake and pulled my face as hard as I could.
Yuka was still laughing in bed.
Chan word! Kanata calls a girl ‘chan’!　It doesn’t suit him at all, it’s like the Alps! Hahaha, ooooh, my stomach’s going to collapse!
“I-I don’t have a choice. Because…”

“No, I know, I know! Calling her by her family name is kind of cold, but calling her by her name is too familiar. After much deliberation, you decided to go with Aoi-chan, didn’t you?”
“If you know what I’m talking about, just let it go, let it go!”

“Murimurimuri. It was funny, but at the same time, it’s also exquisitely cute, and I can’t let it go.”
“What do you mean, ‘cute’? I don’t get it!”
“Well, that’s why…”

When the laughter finally died down, Yuka wiped the tears from her eyes.

“It was like the sadness of a Virgin-san who doesn’t know how to treat a younger girl. It was very cute!”
“What …?”

I felt a click.
N-No, but she was right. I don’t have any experience with other women.

But, that, however…

The gauge in my brain swung over the critical point and I looked down with a wince.
Yuka peeked at me from the top of the bed. She has no idea what’s going on.

“Ah? Kanata? Where did you go?”
“You’re…?
“Umu?”
“You’re the one talking! How dare you!?”
“Huh? What, what, what!? What!?

I looked up and gave Yuka an iron claw of love, anger and sorrow.
I was in a super mode that shone and shouted.

“What the hell are you saying about me being cute, you konoyaro! I’ll tell you what, it’s 100 percent your fault that I’m a virgin!”
“100 percent? Why am I responsible for such a cold responsibility before I know it? I was about to say something…ah, maybe I shouldn’t? I think this topic is going to be a very sensitive matter, so let’s not do it, okay? Now Yuika-chan is going to apologize to you with a flirtatious smile. I’m sorry♪”

“S-T-O-P, I-T!”
“Yeah, I knew it!”

I wiggled the fingertips of my iron claw.
Yuihana, who is not fond of the alien-like movements that stick to her face said, “Ah no, I’m scared, scared!” But of course, the finger doesn’t stop. There was no mercy.

“I’ll tell you what, if you weren’t such a recluse, I’d graduate in a second!
“In a second? No, I want it to take at least three days! Specifically, the two of us would go on a trip together, and on the first day we would both be too self-conscious to do anything, and on the second day Kanata would be so nervous and pressured that he would be depressed, and I would gently comfort him. So on the third day, we finally—”

“Yakkamasha!”
“What’s Yakkamasha!?”
“It’s ‘yakamashii’ in the personal conjugation! I can’t wait three days! I’ve been on hold for at least a year and a half!”
“Kanata, you’re on the verge of saying something bad! Be careful, you’re on the edge!”

“Yakkamasha!”
“It’s that again!?”
“Just remember, you’re a pretty selfish cute princess! Once you’re safely out of your reclusive state, I’m going to strip you, touch you, get you wet, and make you squeal all day, every day! On top of that, I’ll make you wear a costume! I’ll tie you up. I’ll even make you wet your pants!”

“Kanata, you’re just about to say it!　You’re on the edge, so be careful!

“Wait!? Is this serious!? Just tying me up is astonishing, but why wetting? Why wetting? Why wetting? I couldn’t help but say it three times! What is going to happen to me!?”

Yuka’s shivering voice echoed through the air.
The meeting danced and the discussion never really got going.
