For Some Reason, My Ex-girlfriend, Who Lost Interest in Me, and My Current Girlfriend, Whom I’ve Known Since Childhood, Are Now Fighting Over Me - CH 76

(Eh, wait a minute! Shota-san came out of a love hotel with Natsukawa-san!? What happened while we lost contact–Eh, no way!?)

Tenshi Izumi is lurking in the shadow of a telephone pole.

She can’t hide her surprise at the definitive scene of her friend and his affair partner coming out of a love hotel.

She also caught sight of her boyfriend, Kengo Sunagawa, who was about to barge in on them.

(W-Why is Kengo-san in such a place…? This is a worse situation than I imagined…)

Izumi’s fears were realized.

“Komori… You… What the h**l is going on here!”

He raged. Kengo Sunagawa, looking like a red devil, barged in on Komori and Natsukawa.

Of course, this is an act. Kengo Sunagawa is acting with the utmost sincerity. It seems that heaven had given him two things, but not luck.

There was no way he would know that this situation was being spied on by his one and only girlfriend.

There were three people who were distraught by Kengo Sunagawa’s intrusion.

Let’s take a peek at their state of mind, one by one.

First, Shota Komori.

(UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Why is Sunagawa-kun here? Of all places, at the worst possible time, when we’re coming out of a love hotel! I know it’s only natural, but he’s really mad at me! Of course this makes his blood boil, right? I was nothing more than a fake boyfriend for Natsukawa-san. If his girlfriend and I came out of a love hotel, of course he would be furious! Even if they are a couple that hasn’t been getting along lately! But this is a misunderstanding! I was just trying to keep Natsukawa-san warm in this facility so she wouldn’t catch a cold when she was soaked… Ah, mou~! This is the truth, but doesn’t it sound like a very poor excuse? A-Anyway, first of all, let’s ask Sunagawa-kun to calm down and give him a proper explanation–)

“I’m going to kill you (this joke of a situation where we’re siblings acting as lovers)!” (T/N: I added the “you”, because japanese don’t usually use much subject and object in their language.)

Kengo Sunagawa is depressed about many things.

Ever since his sister swept him off his feet, things that had been going well have been going wrong, as if the gears had stopped meshing.

His frustration must be considerable.

That is why he is so passionate about acting out his anger.

It is a natural expression of anger.

(He’s going to kill me~~~! Sunagawa-kun’s eyes look so torn up! He really wants to kill me!? I didn’t do anything wrong, so why am I in this situation? …What’s so unreasonable is that the guy being cuckolded is mistaken for the one cuckolding! I really can’t do this anymore…)

Komori, hit by Sunagawa’s anger, shrivels up like a hamster.

He seems to be doing his best to hide his trembling body.

Shota Komori is the embodiment of normal, ordinary, and mediocre, and there is no way he could possibly have any tolerance for the wrath of an otherworldly inhabitant like Sunagawa.

Then there is Tenshi Izumi.

(AHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Kengo-san, he… He’s really mad! I’ve never seen Kengo-san revealing his anger like that beforeeeeeeeee!!! I-Is Natsukawa-san that important to him? In the first place, Natsukawa-san invited Shota-san to give Kengo-san’s present… UWAAAA, they are a loving, beautiful couple, aren’t they!)

It is not surprising that she would misunderstand, not knowing that Kengo Sunagawa and Shizuku Natsukawa are sister and brother, and that her boyfriend’s anger is an act.

Finally, there is Shizuku Natsukawa.

(Foolish brotherrrrrrrrrrr!!! How dare you, how dare you! I can’t believe you would take advantage of my intolerance to alcohol to get Shota-kun to take care of me! Do you not know the difference between what’s right and wrong!? Well, I don’t deny that I had a great time, but you should have thought about the timing! If you, as my boyfriend (externally), barge in on me the moment I come out of a love hotel, it’s definitely going to be a shuraba. Well, if I already have an established relationship with Shota-kun, there would be a way to do it. I could play the role you want me to play. I’d say… ‘I’m sorry, Kengo. I’ve already become Komori-kun’s in body and soul. I hope you will break up with me.’ But I just dried my clothes and body at a love hotel, okay? If you appear in a situation like this–)

Kengo Sunagawa grabbed Komori by the chest and clenched his fist.

“You’re ready for this, aren’t you? Clench your teeth.”

“W-Wait a minute, Sunagawa-kun!”

“Wait a minute, Kengo. You’re misunderstanding! Komori-kun is just–”

To those who know their situation, the current situation is a farce.

But how would it look to a third party?

“You there! Stop fighting! We’ll talk about it at the station!”

The new intruder is a police officer making his rounds.

He was focusing on a couple coming out of a love hotel to see if they were underage, when Kengo Sunagawa intervened and determined that it was a love affair.

The police officer, who had no idea that Sunagawa grabbing Komori by the chest is an act, rushed to stop the fight that was about to begin.

“Wait, eh, what, wait…!”

Kengo Sunagawa is getting anxious.

“C-Calm down, Sunagawa-kun. You will understand if I speak to you properly!”

Komori tries desperately to persuade him.

(…This is the worst.)

Natsukawa despairs.

Eventually, the three were forced to board a police car.

(Eh… EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!? Shota-san, Kengo-san, and even Natsukawa-san have been taken away by the police! Wha-Wha-What should I do?)

Tenshi Izumi could do nothing but stand there in a daze.
