The three continued to eat until they were satisfied.

There were many things that Haruno wanted to ask the two, but she decided to endure it right now, enjoying their rare time together.

After they ate, they walked out of the restaurant, feeling their bodies were refreshed, especially when the night wind was so fresh, which was a good thing since they ate spicy food.

“Should we go back now?” Shishio asked since there was something that he needed to do after this.

“Say, why spicy food? Why don’t you just bring her to normal tasting food?” Haruno suddenly asked.

Yukino**a also looked at Shishio curiously.

Shishio felt weird and asked, “You don’t like spicy food?”

“Well…” Haruno thought for a moment and said, “If I have to say whether I’m good with it or not, obviously, I’m not good at it, but it is different now.” It was painful, it was hot, and it made her body feel sticky because of the sweat, but even so, there was this indescribable feeling that came out from her chest after she finished the food.

It might be hard to explain, but it felt like her entire body was refreshed.

If Haruno had to be exaggerated, it was like her body was being burnt with a fire before it was revived once again, and she had crossed the human boundary, becoming an existence that was immune to the fiery pain.

If Shishio knew what Haruno was thinking, he thought this woman must be a chuunibyou before.

Still, Shishio must admit that this young woman was so free that she could ask such a random philosophical question which gave him a headache, so he thought for a moment and suddenly got an idea.

“Well, you know that the kanji for “spicy” can also be read as “pain,” but by adding one line to the character, “spicy” will turn that word into “happiness.”

“…..”

Haruno was in silence and didn’t expect that this guy would have such a deep understanding of spicy food. Also, she would have never expected there was such a deep meaning to spicy food.

However, Haruno didn’t feel that surprised since most people in the country often tried to appreciate small things.

It was just spicy food, yet there were many things that one could find when they ate it.

“After experiencing the real heat, it gives you the strength to overcome difficulties.” Shishio let out a sigh and said, “Like my situation now, I need the strength to overcome my difficulties.”

While Haruno had been smiling all the time and acted amicably every time, Shishio knew that this woman was a fox. She had always acted, and once she was given a chance, she might bite him down.

“Hey! Are you saying that I’m those difficulties in your words?! How rude! You should be happy that you have dinner with two beautiful women and are being treated, right? Is that how you give your thanks?” Haruno pouted. “Should I take back my permission to call me Nee-san?”

“Okay, okay, I apologize, Nee-san. You’re not the difficulty. I’m glad to eat dinner with you and to get to know you,” Shishio apologized.

“Hmph! I’m not an easy woman that you can play around with.”

“…Please don’t say anything that will cause misleading.”

“Hehe…”

Yukino**a stared at Shishio and Haruno and wondered how they became so close?

Yukino**a became quite unhappy and decided to reveal his disguise.

“By the way, Shishio.”

“What’s wrong, Senpai?”

“Did you just make up those words on the spot before?” Yukino**a asked.

“….” Shishio.

Haruno stared at Shishio in silence.

“…Can you let me try to act cool once?” Shishio asked helplessly.

“Hmph!” Yukino**a only hummed as she looked away.

Haruno smiled at their interaction and moved closer to Yukino**a’s ear. “Don’t be jealous, Yukino-chan. I’m just testing your boyfriend, but he’s more interesting than I thought.” She wanted to say that she also wanted to steal him from her, but she decided not to since she didn’t want to fool this pleasant mood.

It might be because of the spicy food that the pores of their bodies were slightly larger since they sweated a lot. While the night wind felt nice, it was quite cold, so Yukino**a’s body trembled slightly. However, with her strong personality, how could she admit such a thing?

Yukino**a was silent and bore the cold temperature stubbornly until something was draped on her shoulders. She was dumbfounded and saw a familiar denim jacket before looking at Shishio, who seemed nonchalant. She pursed her lips and felt strangely giddy for some reason.

“…Thanks.”

Yukino**a pulled the jacket closely as his masculine smell seized her nostrils, making her body hot for some reason.

“No problem.”

Shishio looked at Yukino**a, who blushed and thought this girl was adorable. While it was true that she didn’t have a chest, without a doubt, she was one of the most beautiful girls that she had ever seen.

“…”

Haruno wasn’t sure why, but she felt she was being ignored here.

Yukino**a and Shishio were in their own world, yet Haruno was outside that world, watching them from a distance, even if she stood on Shishio’s left side.

While it was fun, Haruno also felt envious.

“Hey, Shishio-kun, I’m also cold. Why don’t you give me a jacket too?” Haruno said unhappily.

Shishio shrugged his shoulders, showed a helpless expression, and said, “Nee-san, you like to tease me so much? I only have a jacket, you know.”

“Then why don’t you give it to me?” Haruno asked.

“Do you need me to answer such an obvious question?” Shishio asked back.

“….” Haruno.

Yukino**a somehow felt strangely pleased, but she was also embarrassed. “Alright, alright, let’s go back first. It is quite late. Isn’t your aunt going to get angry if you go back late?”

“Well, yeah, I need to go back early.” Shishio nodded since he needed to go back quite early, but it wasn’t because of his aunt. Instead, it was because of someone else.

“Oh? Do you live with your aunt, Shishio-kun?” Haruno asked.

Shishio looked at Haruno for a moment and started to talk with her.

Their conversation was extremely normal since Haruno was just curious about him, and he was also quite curious about her.

Of course, Shishio also included Yukino**a since if he didn’t do so, this girl might secretly sulk.

The time seemed to pass quickly with their conversation, and Shishio also excused himself after he got his motorcycle.

“Bye. Senpai. Nee-san.”

Shishio looked in the direction of Mai’s apartment for a moment before he moved in a different direction. He wondered what Mai and Shiina were doing right now, but while he was curious, it wasn’t the right choice for him to interrupt their night together.

There might be a chance for him to have a threesome or foursome, but well, let’s leave that matter aside since there was one girl that was waiting for him.

Watching Shishio, who disappeared into the night, Haruno looked at Yukino**a for a moment and said, “He likes you so much, huh?”

“…Are you satisfied now?” Yukino**a asked and didn’t intend to say the details of her relationship with Shishio since the more she talked, the more troublesome that Haruno would become. However, she was okay with this relationship. There was no need for the interruption of her family.

“You really don’t want me to say anything to mother, huh?” Haruno kept her fake smile as she said those words.

Yukino**a was silent and stared at Haruno with a cold gaze.

“Okay, okay, I won’t say anything, but you need to be careful, alright?”

“Careful?” Yukino**a looked at Haruno in doubt.

“That guy… if you don’t be careful, he might sway you, drown you into something that you can’t escape.”

“….” Yukino**a.

“Also, you’re still a virgin, right?” Haruno asked worriedly since she had a feeling that if Shishio wanted to, this guy might be able to steal Yukino**a’s virginity so easily.

“….”

Yukino**a stared at Haruno for a moment and said coldly, “You don’t need to worry. I know him better than you. I’ll go back now.” She turned and left without hesitation.

“Wa-Wait, Yukino-chan!”

However, Yukino**a ignored Haruno and entered her apartment without turning back.

Watching her back, Haruno sighed and knew that she had messed up. However, she was an older sister, and she was, of course, worried about her little sister, so…

“Give me information about him.”

“Yes, Ojou-sama.”

Haruno must admit that Shishio was fascinating, but she knew that there was something deeper than that, and while her purpose was to protect her little sister, she didn’t deny that she was curious about him.

“Nanami, you seem to be excited somehow.”

“Yeah, has something good happened?”

Nanami, who rested after a long training session at the Seiyuu school, was asked by her friends.

Unlike her, her two friends had already graduated from high school, and they were having a job while trying to achieve their dream as Seiyuu.

Still, Nanami was startled when she was asked, “Why do you think so?”

“No, it is just you seem different than before.”

“Yeah, you have this gloomy aura around you before, but now, you’re full of smiles.”

“Yeah, yeah, tell this Onee-san.”

“Do you have a boyfriend now?”

Nanami blushed, and she couldn’t answer their questions since there was no way that she could tell them she had become a maid of her classmate, right?

Also, there was no way for her to tell them that something might happen tonight.

However, Nanami realized that her skill had improved, and she also looked forward to her life since she was in a different form before, which was why she was in love with him.

That person might be a scumbag and a pervert, but it was all good for her since she knew that she was needed by him.

Nanami knew that there was nothing that she could give him, especially when she only had a limited skill and ability. If there was something that she could be proud of, then it might be her quite beautiful face and her D-cup of breasts.

While Nanami’s relationship with her parents might be bad because they didn’t allow her to become a seiyuu, she must admit that she was grateful for them to give her an appearance that could attract him.

Nanami didn’t answer their questions truthfully and only said that she felt an improvement in her skill and her score on the school also had improved, which was why she was happy.

Hearing Nanami’s answer, they somehow sighed and felt slightly bored since they thought that Nanami might be able to give them some fun, but they felt a bit disappointed.

“That’s not good, Nanami. You should enjoy your youth more.”

“My youth?”

“Yeah, you should have a boyfriend!”

“You say that, but do you even have a boyfriend?”

“…Can you not talk about me?”

“…….” Everyone.

While they talked to each other, they walked out of the school since the lesson had ended.

While they talked about love, it was impossible for them to get one, considering their situation, especially when they were busy with their school, work, lesson, or dream, which somehow made them realize how sad they were.

“Nanami.”

Suddenly they heard this magnetic voice and their eyes were wide open when they saw a handsome young man sitting lazily on the motorcycle.

‘SO-SO HANDSOME!!!’

They thought at that same time, and they couldn’t look away from him.

However, suddenly they realized something.

“Shishio-kun!” Nanami was excited then looked at her friends. “Sorry, I’ll go back first.” She strode to Shishio and quickly apologized. “Sorry to make you wait.”

“No problem, I have just arrived. Should we go now?” Shishio asked.

“Yes.” Nanami received a helmet from Shishio and sat on his back naturally. She looked at her friends naturally and said, “I’ll go back first, everyone.” She didn’t feel shy anymore and hugged his waist tightly, without letting him go with a happy smile since he picked her up.

“You seem happy. Did something good happen?” Shishio asked.

“Hehehe…” Nanami only laughed and didn’t say much before talking about the random thing that she found out after school.

The two left while they talked to each other, leaving the group of women watching them in a daze and realizing that Nanami might be the one who enjoyed her youth so much among them..
