When I Became a Girl, an Unexpected Love Quarrel Occurred! - CH 87

Big Brother’s in Trouble

I finished my breakfast and washed the dishes in the spacious kitchen.

“Huh…”

I like washing dishes, but I can’t help but sigh.

The reason is that I took a bath with Iris.

『Let’s take a bath together again tomorrow, Amane-onee-chan.』

Saying that Iris-san had a big smile on her face.

It’s impossible to say no when someone says something like that to you with a smile like that.

But…

“Huh…”

A sigh leaks out when I think about it.

Bathing with Alice has become a daily routine, I experienced a bath with the strongest Kiniwa-san, and when I went camping, I saw everyone naked at the hot springs, so I think I’ve become much more tolerant of naked girls.

So even though I experienced the heavenly hell of taking a bath with Iris-san and washing each other’s bodies, I didn’t get a nosebleed or faint.

But if I had to go through that again, it might be easier to faint.

“If I were a man, I’d be very happy… no.”

It’s because I’m a woman that I’m able to handle it, and if I were a man, I would have been in the worst situation.

Well, it’s not like Iris-san is going to take a bath with me, a man.

I wonder if the ninja maids who seem to be watching us can do something about it.

I let out a sigh again as I thought about that.

“Hmm?”

I heard a faint cracking sound and turned my gaze in the direction of the sound.

There was a small folded piece of paper on the sink.

I picked up the small folded piece of paper and looked around.

I could only hear Yurizono-san’s laughter from the living room, and I was the only one in the kitchen.

“Wau?”

Ah, no, there’s Chibisuke at my feet.

Anyway, there was no one else in the kitchen but me and Chibisuke.

Before I started washing the dishes, there was no such thing on the sink.

So it must have been the ninja maids.

I unfolded the paper, thinking so with a gaze.

――Amane-sama, fight!

I read the sentence written on the paper and almost fell on the spot.

I’m rooting for you. Ninja Maid is rooting for me.

If only Iris-san, the Super Ojou-sama, and employer of the ninja maids, had missed a random ordinary person like me and thought that I’m not interesting, I would have had an excuse to escape this heavenly hell.

And yet, instead of finding me uninteresting, they were cheering me on.

I put my hand over my mouth, stifle my voice, and cry.

“Wauu.”

As if he knew what I was going through, Chibisuke raised his voice in concern and rubbed his face against my leg.

“Chibisuke…”

I crouched down and hugged him, crying.

Huh, Fluffy is giving me peace.

“It’s a relief to have Chibisuke by my side…”

The only one I can rely on is Chibisuke since Alice has been captured by Yurizono-san.

◆

I left Yurizono-san’s house with Alice and Yurizono-san to go to school.

“Have a good day! I’ll be waiting for you all to come home!”

Iris-san raised her voice as she waved her hand towards us.

As a university student, Iris-san is still on summer vacation, so she was home alone.

She’s probably hard at work making pressed flowers while waiting for us to return.

The thought of her waiting for us to come back made me feel relieved, but on the other hand, the thought of another bath waiting for her when we got back made me feel heavy.

My plan to pretend to be asleep had failed. I have to think of a better way.

“I’m off!”

Yurizono-san, who waved back, raised her voice with a big smile on her face.

Both of Yurizono-san’s cheeks were red and swollen.

She had just been beaten to a pulp by Alice.

I waved back at Iris-san with a bitter smile and glanced at her.

“Hmph.”

With veins rising in her temples, Alice sniffed and kicked Yurizono-san’s leg with a shove.

“It hurts!”

Yurizono-san looks happy while saying it hurts.

If you’re wondering why Alice is angry, well, I’d say she has a right to be.

In the morning in the living room, Yurizono-san said she was going to perform a magic trick.

Alice was chosen to be her assistant, and Yurizono-san tied her hands behind her back.

Perhaps Alice wanted to see the magic trick so she didn’t resist.

And then――.

She pushed her down on the sofa and started to rub her side.

Alice laughed.

Iris-san and I were watching from the sidelines, wondering when the magic trick would start.

Yurizono-san continues to poke and prod Alice.

No matter how long we waited, the magic trick didn’t start, and the sound of Alice’s laughter just kept echoing in the living room.

It was a lie to say it was a magic trick, it seemed that Ms. Yurizono just wanted to rub Alice.

So, it was inevitable that Alice lost her temper, and it was also inevitable that Yurizono-san was beaten to a pulp.

It was natural for her to be angry.

There was no way to defend her.

I’m really amazed at Yurizono-san.

But――.

“Come to think of it, Mirisu breasts are small and cute――Ugyu!”

Yurizono-san smiled and raised her voice, but before she could finish, she was stopped by Alice with a slap.

“B-Bigger is not always better!”

Alice, who was flaming red, shouted with tears in her eyes while covering her breasts with her hands.

“I was complimenting you. I couldn’t be smaller even if I wanted――Ugyu!”

Yurizono-san made an excuse, but before she could finish, Alice stopped her with a slap.

“It sounds like you’re bragging, you idiot!”

Alice’s eyes teared up even more and she shouted angrily.

“N-Nice slap!”

Her cheeks swollen red, Yurizono-san raises her voice with a thumbs-up.

Alice, looking at Yurizono-san with her eyes, let out a sigh of amazement and patted Yurizono-san’s head lightly with a span.

Yurizono-san smiled happily as she was patted on the head.

What kind of life did Yurizono-san lead before she met Alice?

Like the Yurizono-san I saw in my dream, she would go to school alone, take classes, leave school alone without talking to anyone, and spend time alone.

I’m sure that’s how she lived her life.

The lone Yurizono-san had a decadent beauty to her, but I like the silly Yurizono-san better.

The Yurizono-san now looks like she’s really enjoying herself, and she’s shining brightly.

It is strange to say that she shines when she is beaten to a pulp.

“Oh, yes! Amane-san, please listen to me!”

Yurizono-san then hugged my arm.

“I slept with Mirisu last night. She was tingling before she went to bed, but when she went to bed, she hugged me while saying, “Onee-chan” and kissed me on the cheek――Hegyuu!”

She was explaining the events of yesterday to me, but before she could finish, she was slapped by Alice.

“It’s because onee-chan appeared in my dream! It’s not that I wanted to kiss you!”

With tears in her eyes and a bright red face, Alice desperately tried to make excuses.

What’s more, sleeping in the same bed together. Alice also seems to be quite taken with Yurizono-san.

“Here, here, Mirisu, you can kiss me anytime you want!”

Yurizono-san provokes Alice by poking her red, swollen cheeks with her fingers.

“I’ll give you a slap without reservation then!”

At Yurizono-san provocation, Alice, who had blood vessels rising in her temples, shouted angrily and slapped her.

“Ugyuuuu!”

A dry, slapping sound echoed, and Yurizono-san’s face jumped up.

The person who is being beaten up is the one who is provoking the situation, so there is nothing we can do about it.

“I-I want to take all the whips of Mirisu love, but if things go on like this, I’m going to die, so I’m going to withdraw!”

Perhaps she had reached her limit after being slapped all morning, Yurizono-san ran away.

“Wait, wait, wait!”

Alice ran out of the room, shouting at Yurizono-san, who was running at a fast pace.

“Waii! Mirisu, over here! Since you’re going to catch me, my love――Ugya!”

Yurizono-san, who was running around and provoking Alice, bumped into a telephone pole and fell to the ground with a thud.

“Hey, idiot!”

Alice, who looked surprised, rushed over to the fallen Yurizono-san. She knelt on the spot and picked up Yurizono-san.

“Are you okay? You hit your head!”

Alice is worried about Yurizono-san for some reason.

“Mi-Mirisu…”

Yurizono-san, who raised her voice slightly, extended her trembling hand.

And then――.

Yurizono-san extended hand gripped Alice’s chest.

“It’s so small it’s impossible to even rub it. But that’s all right.”

Yurizono-san’s expression tightened and she raised her voice.

The blood vessels in Alice’s temples flared up, and Yurizono-san’s scream echoed in the blue sky.

You’re such an idiot, Yurizono-san.

But, yes, I do like this Yurizono-san better.

But the dream I had last night. I’m not sure if it was a dream or not.

But since I was supposed to be a man and here I am, it’s not surprising that I was supposed to be a woman and I’m living my life as a man.

And you that I saw the scene as a dream, please…

You know the real Yurizono-san, please take care of Yurizono-san for me.

“Is it bad that I have tiny tits? What’s wrong with being small!”

“Nice slap! Hegyuu, hegyuu!”

Alice gives Yurizono-san a series of slaps while shouting in anger, and Yurizono-san screams while giving a thumbs-up.

It’s okay to save Yurizono-san from loneliness, but don’t let her get carried away or she’ll get into trouble.

While thinking about that, I stopped Alice just in case because Yurizono-san was about to die.

◆

Somehow we arrived at the school and I opened the shoebox to change into my inner shoes.

I guess Yurizono-san was so happy that Alice was staying with us that she was in high spirits.

But I’m worried that if she keeps provoking Alice and getting beaten up by her, she’s going to die.

However, it’s not good because Yurizono-san is inviting her to do so.

Well, I’m sure Alice is taking it easy on her, so I guess I can leave her alone.

I was thinking about that when I tried to get my inner shoes out of the shoe box.

“Hmm?”

Something hit my hand with a crisp, and I tilted my head to look inside the shoebox.

There was a western envelope on top of my inner shoe.

Was it a love letter?

After the vice president, another fierce competitor has appeared?

I look around with a sense of excitement.

If Alice or Yurizono-san found out, they’d surely make a scene.

Despite my worries, the two were nowhere to be seen.

Maybe they were chasing each other or something.

I patted my chest and took out the envelope.

“…… huh?”

I looked at the back of the envelope, wondering who the sender was, and froze in my tracks.

The name written on the back of the envelope, in the corner, was someone I knew well.

――Takanashi Rinka

That’s certainly what it was written.

Why, Takanashi-san? If she had something to tell me, she would tell me in words. So why a letter?

Is this a prank?

Thinking so, I hurriedly opened the envelope and took out the letter inside.

――Dear Amane. I have something to tell you. Please come alone to the pavilion in the courtyard after school.

The letter was written in such a polite, stranger-like manner.

I put the letterhead back in the envelope and tucked the envelope into my bag.

“Prank… is not.”

I can’t say for sure, but this neat and clean handwriting looks like Takanashi-san’s.

But if it wasn’t a prank, then why was it…?

I had a bad feeling about this.

It’s something I can’t talk about casually.

Something that can only be communicated in this way.

I can think of something.

That I’m working in the dark to make Takanashi-san the student council president.

What if Takanashi-san found out about it?

“No way…”

Maybe Kiniwa-san told her.

If Kiniwa-san did tell you, why Takanashi-san wrote me a letter and called me?

“Takanashi-san is… angry.”

If she wasn’t angry, she wouldn’t have taken the roundabout way of writing a letter.

Maybe Takanashi-san was being patient and decided to take this step to calm her anger and cool down.

But even if that’s the case, she’s still angry.

Suddenly I felt anxious and scared.

Because I did something selfish.

“What should I do…”

My hands, gripping the handles of my bag, trembled on their own.

I was going to tell her. I was going to tell Takanashi-san sooner or later.

I was only going to say that when I had created a situation where I was ready and could not fail.

Takanashi-san has been through trauma. That’s why I wanted to create a no-fail situation.

I wanted to see Takanashi-san on the front stage.

I wanted to see the person I had always admired walk down the aisle with dignity.

But that was my selfish thought.

It was a self-centered imposition that ignored Takanashi-san’s feelings.

What if Takanashi-san hates me?

I had finally made a friend.

She’s the best friend I’ve ever wanted.

She said we should go camping together again next year.

What if he hates me?

If I had thought about it for a moment, I would have known, but why did I do something so selfish?

I should have told Takanashi-san before anyone else.

“What should I do, what should I do, what should I do…”

I imagined the person I had always admired standing proudly in front of a crowd of students and receiving applause, and I was hooked.

I assumed on my own that Takanashi-san deserved more recognition, and I told myself that this was the right thing to do, and I ran ahead without looking aside.

The result.

“I didn’t want that. I don’t want Takanashi-san to hate me.”

I muttered to myself as my trembling knees threatened to break, and I ran out of the gate.

I can’t run away. If I run away, I’ll never be able to see Takanashi-san’s face again.

But I’m scared. I’m afraid to go to class.

Forgetting to breathe, I ran to the back of the school building and pulled out my phone with trembling hands.

I can’t run away. Run away. I know that’s the worst choice I can make.

But I don’t know what to do.

Then――

I put the phone to my ear, hoping for a glimmer of hope.

“If Kanau-kun maybe…”

Maybe Kanau-kun will be able to help me.

He might be able to give me a hint on how to get out of this predicament.

I earnestly hoped so as I felt my knees trembling.
