Ch. 67: The Great Confession War of Childhood Friends, Souta’s Side 1

We were now in a situation we couldn’t afford to be in.
It all started yesterday, when Iori took Aoi-chan into his room and confessed his feelings for her.

Aoi-chan said that she would reply tomorrow, or today, in the same room of Iori.
This confused me and Yuika. We decided that Iori and her would do something erotic immediately after she answered his confession.

As a senior in life, I had to correct them for such a breach of chastity.
We held a meeting of childhood friends, and Yuika and I had a lot of discussions. As a result, Yuika proposed a “lover counter-strategy” that if Iori and Aoi-chan got into a strange mood, we would immediately do the same thing from next door to dissuade them. …To our horror, the situation far exceeded our expectations.

The first thing that happened was that as Iori and Aoi-chan were about to enter the room, we heard a tray fall and something that sounded like a tea spill.
Next, Aoi-chan loudly announced that she was going to reply to his confession.

We understood the situation next door with the advanced guessing and computing power of a supercomputer.

Probably the moment she entered the room, Iori patiently pushed her down. I don’t think that Iori was…but the supercomputer in our brains said that it can’t be otherwise.

And Aoi-chan was about to reply to his confession while she was pushed down. In other words, it’s a sign that says, “I’m all set.”

It was a terrible thing. Young people with a disordered sense of chastity are about to start flirting to an excessive degree in this situation with their relatives next to them.

I’m sure they’re so in love with each other that they’ve lost sight of their surroundings. But I don’t blame them for that, because senior people in life are supposed to warmly watch over inexperienced young people, but I don’t have time for that either!

“(Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, Yuika! For now! For now, step away!)”

Her F-cup chest is pressed against my chest, squeezing tightly. Our thighs are touching each other, and if anything, we’re about to collide in a complicated way.

“(Seriously wait! Please, wait! Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! If this keeps up, I’ll wait and wait and wait too long, and I’ll awaken a Stand!”
“(No point, no point, no point, no point, no point!”
“(Yuika awakened first!)”

Yuika looked up and stared at me at a distance that took my breath away, or rather, she was almost kissing me.

“(It’s useless to try to refuse, so give up! At this very moment, Iori might start his graduation performance! The opening bell has already rung!)”
“(What’s the graduation performance? It’s true that there may be a performance element because we’re listening next to them, but such a graduation would be too weird!)”

“(That’s why we have to counterattack and stop them! She would say ‘it hurts’ in her first time s*x)”
“(Don’t say ‘first time s*x’ straight away! It’s too graphic! I don’t want to imagine Iori doing that!”

“(Anyway, we don’t have much time! Even my mom and dad were in an emotional mood when they were students after a lot of stuff happened, and they just did it and I was born!)”
“(Whoa! I’ve never heard of that! That’s why they’re so uncommonly young, those two!”

“(Anyway, vigorous births are a family tradition in the Kisaragi family! So hurry up! At this rate, Iori will become a father!)”
“(Okay, okay, I can’t let Iori become a father in middle school! Then let’s start the counter…hey, you were trying to do the same family art!)”

“(—What!? That’s right Yuika-chan, you’re careless!)”
“(Scary! The Kisaragi family’s ‘daily norms’ is so scary!)”

Yuika groaned, “(I-It’s okay!)”

“(As long as Souta stops in the middle, there won’t be any problem! Right? Right?)”
“(Are you stupid? I’m not going to be able to stop in the middle of a year-long deposit if the ban is lifted!)”
“(Ah no, the Mikami family’s animalistic ways are scary.)”
“(It’s normal! Can you please not label my family as animals?”

As we were arguing, a voice suddenly rang out from behind the wall.
It was Aoi-chan’s voice.

 

“I-I want…t-to go out with you! I’ve…been in love with Iori-kun for a long time!”

 

Me and Yuika turned towards the wall.
I was facing it with great intensity.

““HEEEEH—!?””

A strange voice came out.
My heart was pounding and a strange voice came out. I know you don’t know what you’re talking about, but we have no idea either.

“(Souta, did you hear that? Did you hear that? She told him, she told him! Aoi-chan finally confessed! It was the reply to his confession! Ahhh, youth!)”
“Aah…It’s so exciting! I think this is the first time I’ve heard a live confession. I love it. I love youth.)”

“(Hey, it’s nice, isn’t it? …Ah, this is not the time to be excited about it…! Isn’t this already the countdown?)”
“(Wow, yeah! Iori is going to graduate in a second!)”

Our supercomputer was telling us.
The “I want to merge with you” gauge on the other side of the wall was already full. There was no more time to lose. Suddenly, Yuika pulled away from me.

“(Yuika!? What’s wrong?)”
“(This was my last resort…the counter is useless due to Souta’s incompetence. If that’s the case…!)”

Yuika distanced herself and jabbed her finger at me with a stern look.
Then she shouted in a voice that could be heard in the next room. Souta, she prefaced.

 

“You have to confess to me right now!”

 

“What do you mean!?”

There was so little context that my tongue tied trying to make sense of it.
