Someone collapsed in front of my house on a rainy day!? I thought and it turned out to be a girl from my class who’s rumored to be a delinquent and a mad dog.
S-She’s indeed scary when she glares… but when you interact with her normally, she’s cute? Mmm, could it be that she doesn’t even realize she’s glaring!?
She treats me as her first friend, but isn’t her sense of distance kind of weird?
She seems to want to be taken care of a lot, like a puppy! She’s a Chihuahua!
My parents were worried about me not having a girlfriend, so my father suggested an arranged marriage meeting. I, Yuuto, reluctantly agreed after my father begged me saying it involved someone related to his work, but to my surprise, the other party turned out to be the famous beauty of my class… Kiryuuin Sophia. Since neither of us wanted to be set up for strange arranged marriage meetings in the future, we decided to enter into a fake engagement. However, it seems Sophia has other intentions as well…
A cute, caring, and busty childhood friend in a mutual love. Shatter that illusion!
New semester of the second year.
I ended up in the same class as two interesting individuals.
The boy’s name is Iizuka Masato.
An introverted loner. In class, it’s unclear what he’s thinking, perhaps trying to appear aloof by building walls around himself.
The girl’s name is Suzumiya Kiyoka.
Fairly cute, with breasts quite assertive.
She seems quiet, always chatting cheerfully with her female friends.
What’s interesting about these two is that I often hear rumors that they’re childhood friends and are dating.
However, upon closer observation, they don’t seem to be dating at all.
Iizuka acts arrogant and boyfriend-like only in front of Suzumiya.
In contrast, Suzumiya seems bothered.
Usually, Iizuka is the only one initiating conversations, while Suzumiya rarely speaks to him and shows no signs of paying attention to him.
Yet, the classmates around them believe the two are close and dating.
I was enjoying observing these two, but somehow I, who was supposed to be just a bystander, got caught up in their commotion. That kind of romantic comedy.
「It’s my time to leave, can I go home?」
「…Not yet. You’re not allowed to go anywhere.」
Yamanaga Takumi, the eldest son of a housekeeping service company, was helping out with the family business as a part-time job.
One day, a request came in, and it was for housekeeping at the home of Hoshino Michika, the class’s healing-type beautiful girl. When he actually went to the house, the healing aura that Hoshino had before was nowhere to be seen, and she was just like any other cheeky high school girl.
In other words, she’s usually just putting on an act.
At first, he worked while enduring her sharp tongue, but gradually her attitude began to soften…
「Hmm, so you prioritize other girls over me??」
「Hey, are you perhaps jealous?」
「I-I’m not jealous… idiot.」
「I’ll always be by Shou-chan’s side──」
That’s what my childhood friend said, as if to comfort me after I lost my parents at a young age and was left with just my little sister.
Afterwards, thanks to the kindness of her mother, Kaname-kaasan──who was close friends with my mother, my sister and I came to live at their house.
Even so, our relationship remained unchanged, and we spent our unchanging days always together, no matter what we did.
However, in the summer of my third year of middle school, I──Chihara Shougo──met with an accident and suffered severe injuries, including full-body contusions and lower body paralysis.
One day, while spending my hospitalized days in despair, a certain incident caused us to be separated.
──A year and a half later, I was to transfer into the prestigious “Kujou Academy”.
But at that academy, my childhood friend was there──
