———— LINE Conversation ————

Suzune : “Can we meet up in front of the college gate after the fourth period?”

Kazuma : “Ah, I’m done with third period so can you call me after your lecture is over? I’ll be waiting in the library.”

Suzune : “Got it. Thank you!”

Kazuma : “Good luck in the fourth lecture.”

Suzune : “Hehe~…”

Suzune :

A knife? What the f—?

Anyway, before I knew it, it was already the next day. I was working on a problem from my Applied Mathematics II class while waiting for Mitoma-san’s fourth period lecture to end.

‘Let’s see…using Cauchy-Riemann equations…’

A few minutes after I entered the library, I was about to finish the first problem.

“Ah, um… Miyoshi-senpai?”

Someone patted my shoulder. It was a voice I recognized so I turned around, and it was Shiina-san whom I met at the freshman welcome party.

“Shiina-san…what’s up?”

“Ah, um…this might not be the right time to say this, but thank you for the part-time job recommendation the other day.”

The part-time job… Oh, that.

In the end, I heard that Shiina-san was taken home by the club president and started dating him. And apparently, the part-time job was at the cafe where the president works.

I didn’t really care about it, but I guess she’s just a naturally good person. But, I don’t really have a good feeling about the president though.

“No problem. By the way, are you getting along with the president?”

“Well.. .he’s a bit intense sometimes, but he’s a good person at heart.”

“I see, that’s good.”

“Yeah…well, I’ll be going now.”

But reality is different from fiction, and maybe guys like the president are more suited for girls like Shiina-san who are kind and unassuming but cute.

But it’s a shame, really.

Come to think of it, I have to schedule things for the club this week. Our club only plays TRPGs and board games, but they’re pretty popular so I have to get on it.

After an hour of working on the problem, I received a message from Mitoma-san and I immediately went out to meet her.

“Ah, senpai~”

“Yo.”

Mitoma-san who came out from the entrance of the general building across from the library waved and ran over to me. Today she was wearing a black flower-patterned dress, different from yesterday. Her beautiful black hair was down to her shoulders and she looked very refined.

In short, she looked cute.

“Well, let’s go.”

“Okay!”

With that, we got on the bus and headed to the suit shop, which was a few minutes away from the university.

“So, what’s with this?”

“Uh, what do you mean?”

As we were riding the bus, Mitoma-san linked her arms with me. I was a bit curious, so I asked her about it. She gave me a strange look, and for a moment I thought it was normal.

“Umm, well… you know?”

“Do you not like it?”

She looked at me straight in the eye as if it was normal for us to do.

It’s not that I don’t like it or anything. It’s just that I feel a bit guilty, as if I’m forcibly dragging along a kouhai who I’m not even dating.

Plus, her big and plump chest is pressing against mine.

It’s soft… No, stop thinking about that!

It’s nothing, it’s just a part of her body that is extremely soft.

“If you don’t like it, I’ll stop.”

“N-no, it’s not that I don’t like it… It’s just that we’re not dating yet… I mean, is it okay?”

“If we’re dating, would you let me do this then?”

“N-no, that’s not what I meant…”

“Hahaha… Well, I’ll stop then.”

“Oh, sorry…”

I wondered why I was apologizing. I shouldn’t have brought up such a trivial thing. The reason is because the sensation is still there. The softness heavenly sensation of her b*****s.

Anyway, I should think about something else. I am technically her senpai after all. If I don’t lead the conversation, it will be too awkward to stay silent in this situation.

‘Senpai… he’s cool but still cute.’

“Umm…”

“What is it?”

“Actually, I’ve been wondering… why do you call me senpai?”

“Oh, senpai… right, I guess I have been calling you that way for a while now.”

“It’s not that I don’t like it or anything. I’ve met you before, but it was just for a moment and we never exchanged names or contacted each other… And you started calling me senpai right away. It’s just strange so, I’ve been curious about it.”

“…So, Miyoshi-san?”

“….”

“Hmm, Miyoshi?”

“….”

“Kazuma-san.”

“….”

“Kazuma!”

“….”

“Kazuma-kun?”

“….”

“Oh, Kazuma-kun it is then, you seem to have the best reaction when I call you that way.”

“Wait, don’t just look at my reactions! It’s fine if you call me senpai. I was just speculating… sorry.”

“Haha~, you’re cute.”

“C-cut it out… really.”

Being called by first name and more so with a ‘kun’ by a cute kouhai is bad for my heart. For now, I’ll let her call me senpai.

After getting off the bus and walking for a few more minutes, we finally arrived at the suit shop.

As we walked in, we saw rows and rows of black suits and shirts. It was an atmosphere that university students like us were not used to.

“Welcome!”

A salesperson dressed in a recruitment suit greeted us.

“Oh, hi!”

“What can I help you with today?”

“Well, I want to buy a new suit… and I want to take it home today, is that possible?”

“Yes, it’s no problem. So, sir, are you looking for a suit?”

“Well, technically, I- “

“It’s for me,” Mitoma-san interrupted with a cheeky grin, stepping between me and the salesperson.

Caught off guard, both the salesperson and I were at a loss for words. The salesperson quickly led us to the women’s suit section to begin the fitting process.

“Oh, umm… okay, I understand. Let’s start looking then.”

“Yes, please.”

“…”

“Senpai, please wait here. I’ll be done soon.”

The salesperson looked at me as if I was a dead fish, and her gaze felt like it was piercing my chest. But her expression was smiling, and it was somehow eerie.

[PoV] Suzune Mitoma :

Honestly, if I don’t keep a close eye on him, so many women will try to cling to my senpai.

I know that he was talking to a girl named Shiina at the library. I happened to see them from the classroom window.

Of course, I sat there on purpose. I knew that he would go to the library because he is my senpai, but still, that girl, despite being in a relationship, keeps getting close to my senpai…

Maybe I should teach her a lesson later.

“Umm…”

“Yes, what is it?”

“I have a job interview tomorrow, and I’m sure I’ll get selected for it. And once I start working, I don’t think my shifts will overlap with yours, so if I might have any questions, I can ask Kazuma-senpai, okay?”

“Huh?”

“Yeah, it’s fine then. I’ll ask you for everything.”

“No, I want you to rely on someone other than me as well, so I guess my senpai at work will help you.” (TL/N : Here, MC is talking about his senpai at his part time job.)

“It’s fine. Don’t worry about that.”

“Can I introduce you to her then?”

“Well, it’s okay… If you say so, senpai.”

“Alright, I’m counting on you.”

My senpai’s senpai huh..

Well, it would be fine if it was a man, but if it’s a woman and she has already gained my senpai’s trust… That’s no good, I will have to do something about that.
