Part 1

Suddenly,

Tsurayuki’s fiancé

appears.

Her name

is Jishouji Sayuri, and she is his childhood, and parents of both of them have

vowed their future together. However, Tsurayuki was not convinced of the

relationship, and she finally rushed to the place where he was running away.

The

purpose seemed to be to get along with Tsurayuki and bring him back to his

parents' house. However, the important thing is that Tsurayuki himself has

no intention of doing so, and it seems that she is currently "in the

process of capturing".

The reason

why there are so many hearsay estimates is that Tsurayuki said very little

about the situation, and Sayuri-san is just sticky to Tsurayuki, and I could

only guess their relationship from the many lines that appeared. Well, although,

there's nothing we can do about it when we hear it...

Anyway,

Sayuri-san may have been staying somewhere for a long time since she suddenly

appeared, and sometimes she came to the share house and started to flirt with

Tsurayuki, also known as "Tsu-kun". …….

"... Hey,

first, could you explain?"

Tsurayuki

uttered a quiet but dull voice.

Winter is

a time for hot pot. It's cheap, delicious, and nutritious, so in this

share house, it was standard to have a hot pot at least three times a week.

So today,

at the end of the year when the weather is still very cold, is the perfect day

for hotpot, and it should be a fun time for the hotpot-loving members of the

share house.

Tsurayuki's

expression was distorted, and his temples were quivering.

"Why

did Sayuri-nee also naturally sitting around the hotpot!?"

The reason

for this was Sayuri-san, who was always smiling and snuggled up next to Tsurayuki.

"Well,

it’s fine, right. I just wanted to eat with Tsu-kun."

"It's

not fine. I mean, why are you guys so frankly OK with it!"

When an

attack came to all of us,

"No,

I mean... she said she'd like to join us."

"It feels

bad to hinder her...right."

"I

got a little more money for the ingredients ~"

Everyone

replied, "Even if you told me about that."

"You

all have been bought off, huh..."

Tsurayuki

dropped his shoulders.

"Ha~a...

Every day I spend all my time working on something I'm not familiar with, and

when I'm done, I get this, and there's no time to relax..."

To

Tsurayuki who frowned,

"Tsu-kun...

are you really that disturbed by me...?"

Sayuri-san

asked with moist eyes.

"N-No...

it's not that far, but there are some degrees."

When Tsurayuki

hurriedly denied it, Sayuri-san's expression brightened.

"I'm

so glad, I thought Tsu-kun hated me. Let's eat, let's eat ~"

She

dexterously separated the ingredients in the pot with her chopsticks and

brought the shiitake mushroom to Tsurayuki's mouth.

"Here,

Ah~n"

"I'm

not gonna do that!"

"Eh~,

I used to do that for you ~. Oh, I see. Do you want me to give a fuu-fuu first?"

"I-If

you do that, I definitely won’t eat it!"

So far,

all the other members, including myself, stopped our chopsticks and watched

what happened.

Of course,

it was a surprise that Tsurayuki had such a relationship with a woman, but more

than that, it was a rare scene to see such a stubborn and blunt man being

played to such an extent.

And this

sweet exchange apparently had an effect on the girls as well,

"Kyoya-kun"

Shinoaki

picked up a konnyaku with her chopsticks,

"Here"

She

brought it gently to my mouth.

"Here,

you said, um, Shinoaki?"

"Here"

Ah, this

is the kind that stays like this until you eat it.

As

expected, I felt embarrassed to do it here, but I also wondered if I should

refuse outright.

Eventually,

after much hesitation,

"Hamu...

Nn"

I ate it.

"Delicious?"

"Uh,

yeah... it's delicious."

"I'm

glad, I'll take more if you tell me."

Shinoaki

is ready and stands by with her chopsticks.

“……………………”

And.

Another

girl was watching the scene with cold eyes.

"...

Nanako, what are you staring at so much?"

"Nothing.

Ah, Kyoya, do you want me to take those fish balls?"

"Ah,

yeah"

At first,

I tried to escape from Shinoaki's silent pressure and turned my attention to

Nanako.

However,

"Kyoya,

here"

Nanako

brought the fish balls directly to my mouth, not on a plate.

"... What

are you doing?"

"Here,

Ah~n"

“………”

You're

going to compete for something like this!

Naturally,

Shinoaki was watching this. Her face was expressionless, but she didn't seem to

be smiling either. She was looking at me ~~~~~~~~~ intently.

But in

front of Nanako, who is looking at me with a big smile, I can't even say that I

can't do that. After all, I had already responded to Shinoaki's "Ah~n"

first.

…… This is

once at a time.

"Hamu..."

I took a

bite of the fish balls that had been brought to me.

"Fufu~n,

was it delicious?"

Nanako

said with a bit of pride and glanced over at Shinoaki.

".........

Mu"

Perhaps it

was because she was provoked face to face, Shinoaki also looked a little angry,

"Kyoya-kun,

Here, Ah~n"

This time,

she clearly pointed the ingredient towards me.

"Kyoya,

look here, Ah~n"

At the

same time, Nanako's chopsticks extended from the other side.

"I

think it’s enough!"

I was

forced to escape from the "Ah~n " attack, as the loop was completely

continuous.

(What is

this, Shinoaki aside, what’s wrong with Nanako, is it a rivalry...?)

Up until

now, she has been teased me about being with Shinoaki, but I feel like at some

point, she is going to get annoyed or get pushy, like this time.

If I think

about it without preconceptions, what it points to is limited.

(...That isn't

the case)

Until now,

Nanako hadn't acted like this before, and I've never shown that kind of

attitude either.

No matter

how insensitive I am, it would be self-conscious of me to think about what

Nanako would do to me over something like this.

I think it

was probably a warning to me that Shinoaki and I were flirting too much in

public. It's true that we've had too much contact lately.

(Let's be

careful... and what happened to Tsurayuki?)

In front

of me, I saw Tsurayuki who had hollow eyes had already been "fuu-fuu"

and "ah~n" many times to eat his food.

"You

look like you're having fun, Kyoya..."

"It's

not fun, but Tsurayuki looks really tough..."

Two men

sighing in a situation they don't quite understand each other.

It should

have been a very enviable scene if you take it normally, but we ended up being

exhausted without knowing the taste of the hot pot.
