Chapter 9

Chapter 1 has ended, and Chapter 2, the Great Vtuber Invasion, is about to begin. If you like, please join me.

Even though I call it Chapter 1, it's just a way of dividing things up, so I hope it gives you an idea of what to expect. Don't worry too much about it!

Today, I'm going in with a blank mind again!!!!!

A little while ago, Yurusei-sensei had a tough time, and the call ended suddenly.

I do feel a bit guilty for going a bit overboard, but it's his fault for saying I'm cute, even though I'm a guy. Yeah, it couldn't be helped.

Anyway, I'm thinking of buying a new game for streaming, so I might go to the game shop tomorrow. As I was thinking about this, a call came from Yusho.

"Hey, Yuki, good job on the stream!"

"Thanks! Is there something you need?"

It seems Yusho had been watching the stream carefully.

I feel a bit embarrassed.

"Hey, tomorrow, Yuki, you're working until noon, right?"

"Um, yeah, my shift ends at 1 PM."

I checked my schedule and answered.

"Actually, I had a full day of practice planned for tomorrow, but it's been moved to the morning. If we're both free, do you want to go out somewhere?"

It seems Yusho's club activities have been shortened, leaving him free. I was also planning to go to the game shop, so it might be good to ask Yusho.

"Right, I was thinking of buying a game for streaming. I was planning to choose one from the requests I've received by noon tomorrow. Do you want to come with me?"

"Ah, you're going to the game shop, that sounds good. I'll come too."

"If we're going to the game shop, it's better to meet at the station, right?"

"Yeah, the game shop is near the station, so let's meet there."

"Considering Yuki's schedule, how about meeting at 2 PM?"

"Sure, that works."

"Okay, see you tomorrow!"

"Yeah, see you tomorrow!"

And the next day

"Phew, I'm tired from work."

I finished my shift and went home.

I put my uniform in the washing machine, took a shower, and decided to go out again.

"Okay, I'm ready, let's go to the station."

I went to the station in casual clothes.

What am I wearing?

I'm wearing a khaki cap, a slightly oversized white T-shirt, navy jeans, and regular white sneakers. I'm using a black shoulder bag!

When I arrived at the station, I saw Yusho and started to run over to him.

"Hey, Yusho, oh—"

I forgot, this station has a small step.

By the time I realized it, it was too late, and my body was starting to fall forward.

Time seemed to slow down.

Then,

"Are you okay?"

The voice was a woman's.

Her speech had a distinctive, drawn-out tone.

She was taller than me, and when she grabbed my arm, she turned and supported me, almost like she was cradling me.

"Ah, I'm okay! Thank you! I thought I was going to fall for a moment..."

The situation was a bit embarrassing.

It felt like I was in a pose from a dance routine.

My face started to feel warm.

"I don't like pain, so I'm glad you're okay."

The woman let me go and smiled as she walked away.

"She was a beautiful person..."

"But, her voice sounded familiar... Maybe it was just my imagination?"

"Hey, Yuki, what are you doing? Are you okay?"

Yusho, who had seen me almost fall, asked me.

"Yeah, I'm fine. A woman who was with me helped me, so I didn't get hurt!"

"That's good to hear. Shall we go?"

"Sure, let's go!"

-------------

When I arrived at the game shop, I decided to look at horror games, which were the most requested genre in the survey.

"Horror games, are you okay with horror games, Yuki?"

"I'm fine with them. I've played all the Bayonetta series!"

Yes, on the stream, I act like I'm not good with horror games, but I actually love them to a certain extent.

I just don't like gory ones.

"Ah, that's right, Yuki loves the Bayonetta series."

"Yeah, but I haven't played the latest VR version yet."

"Then let's go with that."

"Huh?"

"I can play it normally, and my reactions won't be boring, I promise."

"No, I'm sure you'll be fine. I have confidence in you."

"If you say so, I'll buy it."

"Buy it, buy it. It'll definitely make a great video."

"And make sure to record your first playthrough! It's a promise."

That night, I started the game at Yusho's suggestion and ended up screaming.

But that's a story for another time.

------????? Perspective------

I was heading to the bus stop to go home from the station when I saw a boy who looked like a small child running and almost tripping over a step.

I was standing right next to him, so I instinctively grabbed his arm and turned to support him, almost like I was cradling him.

"Are you okay?"

The boy had a face that looked almost like a girl's.

"Ah, I'm okay! Thank you! I thought I was going to fall for a moment..."

No, maybe he is a girl.

Because his voice is so cute.

"I don't like pain, so I'm glad you're okay."

I said this and quickly left the scene.

Why did I leave so quickly? Because I couldn't suppress the smile on my face.

His small body, cute face, and cute voice—all of it was perfect.

I am a lady who loves lolis and shota.

No one knows this about me.

I thought today's incident was a bonus as I went home.

But I didn't know that I would meet that boy again in an unexpected way.

It was interesting, and I'm looking forward to the next part! If you feel the same, I would be overjoyed to receive your ratings and bookmarks!

And I apologize for the short length this time...

I'm at my physical limit, so please forgive me...
