Ch 146 – 11 June, Conversation with Utaha and Takao 02

Edited by The Darkest Knight#4796

//*Utaha's Point of View*//

"Boyfriend… Huh?" Utaha spoke with a slight stammer as she was quite surprised. She was sipping the iced coffee using a straw before and Kouta could see a slight tremble in the glass she held. He wondered if she was angry or just surprised.

Utaha may have realized he looked at her since her eyes moved toward him. She did not reply to Kouta's greeting then. She just stared silently at him with a smile that gave an ominous impression.

Kouta may have understood what she was thinking from her expression alone. However, he ignored her and sat in front of Utaha, which meant he was also sitting next to Takao.

"Is there anything you want to order, Takao?" Kouta asked Takao.

"Hm, I think I will have some parfait." She replied after seeing the menu in such a fast manner.

"Ah, do you want to order a parfait too, Utaha? Don't worry, I'll treat you guys." His voice and mouth seemed to be happy, and he enjoyed what happened. In the end, all of this happened because of his intention. He never expected it to be this well, and so far, it was within his calculations.

Although Utaha was an intelligent girl, Kouta was still confident that she was basically a good girl and would think of her junior, Eriri. Well, there was no way Utaha would say anything, especially regarding the things that happened between the three of them.

"Well, if you pay for it. You can order one for me." Utaha sighed, her shoulder slumping despondently as she saw these two people before her. She was currently observing the two people who looked close to each other. Honestly, her heart was conflicted, as she was confused about whether she should be heartbroken or the like.

In a corner, Utaha should have opened her eyes to the fact that Kouta was an asshole. Then, whatever happened after everything she did with Kouta ended, she would leave him behind. At the same time, as Utaha looked at the two of them, she couldn't help but feel jealous of the closeness of the two people in front of her. Especially when she saw Takao, who looked like she was in love. It felt like these two had a relationship different from Utaha and Eriri.

Of course, Utaha didn't know what actually happened between Kouta and Eriri. She only knew that Eriri experienced the same thing as her being blackmailed by Kouta. Well, Utaha saw Eriri having sex with Kouta and could see firsthand that she also enjoyed the intercourse. Utaha also experienced the same thing as Eriri, even though she was blackmailed and forced by Kouta. In the end, she also enjoyed having sex with Kouta.

It was just that when looking directly at the relationship between Kouta and Takao, it looked different from her and Eriri. Utaha could see that Eriri was increasingly revealing a maiden's expression day by day. The thing that probably happened to her a while ago.

Then, there was one more important thing that bothered Utaha. The thing that made her feel a little insecure was that there was one thing that was different about Takao compared to Eriri.

Well, basically, Utaha was very confident with her graceful body, even though Eriri was arguably more cute than her. Utaha didn't feel inferior to Eriri, and she might be said to give off a more mature impression than Eriri. The thing that made her confident when comparing herself to Eriri.

Things were different when talking to the girl in front of her. Takao was taller than Eriri but still shorter than her. Her face was quite pretty and still gave off a strong impression of purity, but she still had a nice bust line and melon-like breasts. Really bigger than herself, Utaha recalled that she had heard rumors of someone who had amazing boobs.

'Is she the girl from the rumors I heard? Most likely…' Utaha thought while she saw Takao, who started eating the parfait that had just arrived. Likewise, the parfait that Kouta ordered for her had also arrived in front of her.

When Takao ate the parfait, it was obvious that she was in a better mood and showed innocence by starting to talk about the games she liked and also about the activities carried out by the GCC. During the conversation, Takao also showed her intimacy with Kouta without hesitation. Inevitably, Utaha felt annoyed to see this. Of course, she was also annoyed at Kouta, who, Utaha herself realized, was enjoying what was happening.

That's why Utaha felt the urge to interrupt their fun by saying something. Somehow, Takao's attitude made Utaha think that she did not know what Kouta did to Eriri or her. Even though she can't imply what actually happened, she could say something that would make this girl hate him or something.

"Hm, I wonder if you are alright with him. Because it looks like your boyfriend is quite the favored of many girls. Aren't you worried that he might turn to someone else or something?" Utaha spoke like that, taking advantage of Kouta, who took his time getting to the toilet and left the two of them alone.

"Ah!" Takao looked a little shocked when Utaha said that. She looked into Utaha's eyes for a few seconds as if absorbing the meaning behind Utaha's words before replying with a small smile.

It was a reply that surprised Utaha since it was kind of a sweet smile, too.

"What?" Utaha couldn't help but respond with a small question in her mind.

"Well, of course. I know about it."

"Is that so?"

"Un, not only do I know about his fame among the girls, but I also know that he has other girls-"

"What!?"

Utaha was surprised by Takao's honest answer. This was beyond her expectations. She didn't expect Takao to answer like this.

"So you know… if that's the case, why are you fine with it?" It was a legitimate question that immediately came to Utaha's mind.

"I understand your confusion. Honestly, I like him because he helps and assists me. It felt like being rescued by a prince on a white horse." Takao answered the question with the words of a poet and even shared a bit about why she liked Kouta.

It sounded exactly like Utaha when she first met Kouta and how Kouta helped and saved her career as a novelist. Although not entirely the same, it somehow felt familiar.

"Kouta said that he likes me and he told me the truth that he also has girls other than me."

"Really… Isn't that the worst!?"

"Well, I don't expect people to understand, but for me, it's enough. Knowing that he likes me and I like him. Also, it's not like we disturb anyone and he rarely talks about other girls too. Then the most important thing for me is that every moment we spend together matters to each other." Takao answered without missing a beat and gave Utaha a small smile.

It was such a weird answer to hear, but seeing Takao act and sound confident like that, actually made Utaha not only confused but also envious.

"Ah, to be honest, at first, I thought he would introduce me to one of his women. However, it doesn't seem to be like that… but after talking, I feel like you may be the same as us, right?"

"What!? There's no way!?"

"Really? But as a woman… I can feel some jealousy from you."

Utaha couldn't really reply since it actually hit her quite a bit. After that, Kouta returned from the restroom, so their conversation stopped there. Then, after that, Kouta escorted Takao to the station. Utaha could see Takao waving with a beaming face. That irritated Utaha a little.

That meant leaving her alone with Kouta. At this point, Utaha knew that Kouta had a girl. So, what was the point of their agreement? However, at the same time, Utaha realized that Kouta still had videos of Eriri and herself. Therefore, Utaha had to remain cautious. It might be a good idea to wait until the boy lets his guard down.

Or she felt like she would get caught in his ways.

"Okay, let's go," Kouta told her. Seeing he said that Utaha just followed him since, for now, she felt a bit lost.
