Ranobe Mo Ore Mo Sukina Gyaru - Volume 1 Chapter 11.5

Gal and a Mini Runaway 5

Suddenly, from the direction of the bathroom, a timid voice came.

“Uhm, Yoda…”

Upon hearing that, I cautiously turned my feet towards the changing room.

And so I arrived in the hallway just beyond the sliding door of the changing room, and from there, I inquired to her.

“Wh-what’s wrong…”

“Could you take my phone from my bag?”

“Can’t you do that yourself?”

“Well, sorry? But please?”

Being asked so earnestly, I couldn’t remain stubbornly resistant.

Thus, I entered the changing room, avoiding eye contact with the bathroom, and searched through Tsumakawa’s bag.

After finding what I was looking for, I took the flashy, vibrant smartphone that was sticking out of the white bag.

A little stunned, I then asked her.

“…Should I leave this in front of the bathroom door?”

“Um, please don’t put it on the floor. Can you… open it?”

“What? You want me to open it!?”

“Whoosh”

“Why are you trying to open the door while mentioning the sound of it…?”

As I pondered this, the door slowly creaked open.

Confirming this, I desperately averted my gaze as the door began to open, extending my left hand, which held the phone, towards the bathroom——

Soon, the door made a rattling noise as it opened completely.

I sensed someone very close to me. …If I even glanced a bit to the left, I could imagine seeing her naked.

That’s why I continued to face right with all my might.

Suppressing my inner desires, I put on a nerdy facade and mustered the strength to resist the urge to look at a girl’s naked body.

And so, the girl who was probably standing completely naked next to me took the phone from my hand.

“Thank you.”

“O-okay… then, c-can you go back to the bath quickly?”

” …… “

“Why are you just standing there in silence? If you’re done, hurry up and go back!”

While keeping my face turned to the right and standing stiffly, I yelled at her to go back to the bathroom.

Then, in the next moment – for some reason, Tsumakawa grasped my left wrist and, gently, and while holding it, said,

“Do you want to come in?”

“T-T-T-There’s no way I’m going in! Are you stupid?”

“… I see. I guess so…”

With a slightly disappointed voice, Tsumakawa let go of my wrist and quickly returned to the bathroom.

The door closed with a thud.

Wait, what was that exchange just now? What did those words mean?

Recalling the phrasing of a certain comedian while playing those words in my head, I staggered out of the changing room… Right now, just within my reach, was a naked Tsumakawa.

The fact caused me to feel mild dizziness.

It felt like a situation from an erotic manga introduction. No, that’s the worst analogy!

Nevertheless, despite falling into such a situation, the only thing I could possibly be proud of as a human being was my ability to maintain my virginity——my effort to avoid looking at her naked body.

“I apologize for asking something impossible. But… I just wanted you to be with me…”

I guess she was not in a mentally stable state at this moment.

I didn’t want to be one of those lowlifes who take advantage of a vulnerable Tsumakawa and look at her naked body, so…avoiding seeing her naked was the right thing to do.

If that’s the case, there’s no need to regret it.

But actually…I wanted to see a naked woman!

Shouting such an ugly truth inside my head, I collapsed onto the sofa in the living room.

Then, immediately after that… from the bathroom, I heard a clicking sound and the sound of a smartphone shutter——what was Tsumakawa doing?

I was surprised. Then, those shutter sounds continued for a while——ten minutes later.

On my LINE, I suddenly received a photo from Tsumakawa.

When I checked it——

“What?!! A lewd selfie? It’s a lewd selfie!”

It was a picture that seemed to have been taken in my bathroom ——a close-up image of Tsumakawa’s upper body, where she covered her nipples with her right arm while seemingly naked.

…Speaking frankly, this was by no means a nude photo.

The lower body wasn’t visible at all, and the important parts of her breasts were cleverly hidden.

It was more like a slightly provocative gravure photo.

However, the added value of it being taken in my bathroom and being a freshly taken photo was driving me towards intense excitement.

Is this gal trying to kill a virgin?!

Just as I was thinking that, I heard the bathroom door open with a creak.

After that, I heard the sound of a hair dryer and clothes rustling… and then, Tsumakawa, wrapped in my sister’s pajamas, emerged in our living room.

“H-hey, Tsumakawa… no, you lewd-girl. Why did you send me such a photo?”

“I mean, it was kind of meant as a thank you for letting me stay tonight. Did you like it?”

“Thank you very much——Wait, no! D-don’t take such lewd photos in someone else’s bathroom! It’s too explicit, it’s against the law…!”

“Ahaha. Your true feelings slipped out before your retort.”

With her face still red after her bath, she said that while sitting down next to me on the sofa.
