Ch 57 – 22 May, Seducing Takao 01

"...Fuwa…" Kouta woke up when morning came, and surprisingly, Satomi was still asleep.  She looked so defenseless. When Kouta looked at the time, it was just time for them to wake up, or they would be late.

It looked like they were doing too much yesterday, since it had been a long time since I did it with Satomi.

Kouta shook her shoulder and said, "Hey, wake up."

"...uuu…" Satomi responded with a cute breath.

Kouta tried shaking her harder, "Satomi… it’s about time or we’ll be late."

Satomi opened her eyes slightly and stood up.

"Nn… Ah… Sorry, Kou-kun. I slept deeply…"

"Well, me too… Anyway, I’m going first…"

"Yes…"

Kouta had gotten up and taken a shower, and at the same time Satomi made a simple breakfast for them. He excused himself to Satomi, who was still in the shower, after he quickly ate those breakfasts.

Kouta left Satomi’s apartment. With perfect timing, the train arrived as soon as Kouta arrived at the station. Before arriving in his classroom barely on time, the atmosphere was more tense than usual. Maybe because of what happened yesterday.

The usual Riajuu One group was quieter than usual, and that guy stared at him with hatred. Well, Kouta just ignored him, but from his gut feeling, this Riajuu guy was more likely to do something in the future. He looked like a person that held grudges after all.

Because of what happened yesterday, no one attempted to speak with Kouta during the break.

Kouta went to the canteen and bought some bread before going to the clubroom to eat there. Beyond Kouta’s expectation, there was no one other than Takao there. After such noise in the clubroom yesterday, Kouta thought some of the members would be here.

"Ah, Takao-senpai… where the other?" Kouta asked Takao who opened her lunch box.

"Well, Chitose had some duty with the student council after all." Takao replied simply. It was an answer pique Kouta’s interest. In the anime, Chitose was president of the student council after all, but Kouta was the president of the student council at this school wasn’t her.

"So she is part of the student council, huh?"

"Yes, she’s our vice-president. Wait… you didn’t know about this?"

"Sorry, but I have been too busy with my own problems."

Kouta had a conversation with Takao while he ate his bread and also sat in front of her. He could see Takao’s lunch box, which contained karaage, white rice, some vegetables, and tamagoyaki.

Kouta realized that he didn’t do anything for Takao after he told her that he wanted to seduce her. Because of the midterm tests, Kouta had difficulty meeting her, and she had been on guard around him. Also, an increase in the number of GCC members makes it very hard for him to make a move. Since there were always people beside the two of them.

A chance for Kouta to be alone with Takao had been decreased, which is why he felt like he needed to make some moves here. But at the same time, it was quite difficult to think of something on the spot.

But when Kouta saw those lunch boxes, he thought of another chance to be alone with her.

"Your lunch box looks delicious, Takao-senpai? Are you the one who made it?" Kouta started his question and made his move, while Takao might not realize it.

"This… No… This is made by my mother. I don’t think I can cook that well…" Takao replied with a wry smile, before she bit another Karaage while she stared at Kouta’s food. "Do you want to try some?" She added.

"Hm… Is it really fine? Okay, then… aaa…" Kouta nodded and agreed, moving forward toward Takao, while opening his mouth, waiting for her to give him the food.

"Eh…" Takao was surprised with his action and looked at him a bit embarrassed.

"What? Why do you look at me? I mean, I don’t have a chopstick. So you need to feed me…" Kouta still opened his mouth, given how shamelessly bold he was.

"Eh, but… I just have one chopstick…" Takao blushed, but she still responded to Kouta's action. Even though she was obviously embarrassed at the thought of feeding him. And also, the possibility of an indirect kiss with him made her feel embarrassed, but excited at the same time.

"Well,  I’m happy with that… So maybe I can get some indirect kiss…" Kouta said, smiling brightly. "I mean just like I said before I tried to seduce you…" He added. He was so cute that Takao couldn’t help but let his shameless act go.

"Geez… Your mouth and womanized attitude…" Even though Takao  said those words. In the end, of course, she fed him, but she did it without an indirect kiss. When she came close, she just threw the karaage, showing some hint that she was annoyed.

"Ah… Un… That’s delicious. Homemade cooking." Kouta praised the karaage he ate. "By the way, what is your favorite food, Takao-senpai?"

"Hm… Maybe karaage or yakitori… wait, what’s the point of you asking this?" Takao once again acted on the guard as she found Kouta may have tried to seduce her and of course, she wasn’t wrong.

"Karaage and yakitori… Huh. It’s easy to make. How about we eat lunch together tomorrow, Takao-senpai? And I will make your favorite food for you…" Kouta invited Takao to eat lunch together as one of his plots.

"What!? Seriously, can you even cook Kouta?"

"Of course, I can. I’m alive alone after all."

"Eh… Really?"

"Un, I have been living alone since my parents died."

"Ah… Sorry."

"It’s fine. You don’t have to worry about that. I’m already used to it."

When Takao heard that, she felt sorry for Kouta. She looked at him as he ate his bread and drank his tea.

"I usually only make breakfast and dinner, since I’m too lazy to make lunch boxes, but if I make it double for you too… I might make it." Kouta suddenly told Takao as if he could read what was in Takao's mind.

"Ah… Is that so…"

"Also, Takao-senpai, this could be an opportunity for me to make a good point from you. Some people said that you can get your crush through their stomach…" Kouta speaks without hesitation about what he was trying to do.

"Haha… That’s… Aren’t usually used as advice from mother to her daughter… haha." Takao couldn’t help but laugh at Kouta's words. She felt like, with his appearance, those words kind of fit him.

"Didn’t I say I wanted to seduce you, Takao-senpai and I would do anything to seduce you, even through your stomach. I want you to like me after all… since I’m really like you, Takao-senpai." Kouta said while staring at Takao’s eyes. His eyes were clear and made Takao’s face blush.

To be honest, Takao was happy hearing those words for Kouta and from his actions and those eyes… actually show how serious he was. Which was weird as Takao knew that he might have said it to another girl too. But, his face showed his conviction.

Her heart rate increased, and her face became hot from shyness.

"Ah… Also you promised me that you would let me try to seduce me…" Kouta finally said a word that made Takao feel like she couldn’t reject his move on her.

With all of his planning and her promise to do him a favor... There was no reason for her to reject Kouta’s invitation.

"Okay, then… we will have lunch together…"

"Yes! Ah… Also this is not just one lunch together…"

"Yes… Yes…"

With that, Kouta found a way for him to be alone with Takao.
