Because I Was Excluded Out of the Class Transfer, I Decided to Steal My Classmate's Lover

Chapter 78.1: Kanami\'s Valentine Day

For Kanami Inugami, Valentine’s Day was more of a day to receive chocolate than a day to give it to someone.

When did it start?

When she was a little girl, during primary school, she would make homemade chocolates with her mother and sisters and give them to their father (it was her sister’s idea), and she would buy expensive chocolates at department stores for her grandfather when he turned 60.

In particular, Kanami’s older sister had a tendency to be a bit of a fuzzball, but until she reached puberty, she looked forward to this day every year. In the family hierarchy of sisters, the oldest sister is the strongest, so Kanami and Kanami’s younger sister are forced to participate.

It’s not that Kanami didn’t like to prepare gifts for her father and grandfather, although she didn’t have the right to refuse.

So even when her sister was in junior high school and when she was entering adolescence and despite being despised by the family, Valentine’s Day is an event that had not been erased from the Inugami family. Not to mention the elaborate chocolates that her sister had taken the initiative to organize. Kanami, her mother and her sister would also participate.

Therefore, Kanami also believes that Valentine’s Day is a time to give thanks to those who have been good to others. Giving chocolate means a token of appreciation. To Kanami that’s how it should be.

Or, more accurately, it was a tragedy that was bound to happen because she thought about it.

Of course, Kanami did not completely cut out information from the outside world, she had heard from her classmates that Valentine’s Day was a day to give chocolates to those of the opposite sex that they liked, and Kanami had a sweet and sour memory of not giving one to a boy she was interested in at the time beating herself up whether to give him one or not.

Then why was it that Kanami became increasingly aware that Valentine’s Day was a day to receive chocolate?

The reason for this question is rather simple: Kanami’s appearance was that of a so-called “handsome girl”.

To put it bluntly, she was very, very-very popular with the girls.

It didn’t turn out to be an unrealistic affair, like a shoe box full of letters from junior girls, as is often the case in fiction.

There was a slight increase in the number of girls who wanted to join the kendo club compared to previous years. Strangely enough, she often met younger girls on the way home (in hindsight, she thought they were waiting for her). At games held on holidays, which were supposed to be free to attend, the cheering section, which was usually empty (at best, a few of the advisor’s students would come), would be filled with junior girls. The fact is that some strange things have happened here and there.

It was when she was a junior high school student. It may not be a fan club, it may be a young male teacher or the ace of the football team, it depends on the year, but there are people who like to get together with others who share the same hobby and cackle. It’s just a coincidence that Kanami became aware of it. She didn’t think too much about it, thinking that it was temporary and that she would soon get bored.

But, it was only in the first six months or so that she became more interested in the opposite sex and male seniors in her class than in the good-looking of the same sex, and little by little - Kanami’s unintentional fans gradually lost interest in her.

Anyway, the fact that they didn’t disappear completely is the crux of the story and an important part of the story.

The juniors who had been following Kanami out of temporary interest or out of a sudden meek feeling of sympathy peculiar to adolescence, gradually left.

The problem was the younger girls, who were more serious about Kanami as a love interest than a fan, who were seriously in love with the good-looking senior Kanami Inugami.

The juniors that’s madly in love didn’t want to make a fuss. In their mind: ‘I want to have a sexual relationship with Kanami’, or ‘I want her to turn me on’ or ‘it is not possible for two women to go out with each other, is it?’

Kanami heard that not a few people develop an interest in the same sex during puberty so it is impossible for a junior high school girl, whose mind and body have not yet matured, to look at herself from a bird’s eye view and handle the situation objectively.

‘I don’t want to get hurt, or I don’t want to embarrass my favorite senior Kanami in any way.’ It’s a bit of a self-serving and arrogant idea, but in junior high school she couldn’t help it.

The result is that the real feelings of admiration and gratitude are hidden, but at the same time, the juniors wanted to leave a sweet imprint on Kanami’s heart, the arrows from the safe zone are all released at once, and only the end result is: ‘Thank you for everything.’ or ‘I really respect Inugami-senpai’. The chocolates were wrapped in thin, junior high school-style decorations of gratitude, and were sent to Kanami.

“At the time, I thought I was a disciplined junior, or something like that, but now that I think about it, some of them may have had a real crush on me.”

On the day of graduation. A junior girl who had given Kanami chocolate on Valentine’s Day had cried so hard on her chest.

At the time, Kanami thought she was a sensitive girl, but that was about it.

“It was a very elaborate chocolate, with a beautiful wrapping. I thought she was going to give it to her boyfriend, but she couldn’t find the courage, so she gave it to me.”

“What’s with the high school prince girl thing? There was a senior like Kana in my middle school, but I don’t think she was that popular.”

That’s what happens in a co-educational secondary school - and Saki, sitting on a chair in the cafeteria, looked at Kanami with a dumbfounded look on her face.

“I once ate a piece of homemade chocolate and found a silver ring inside. I thought it was something that got in the way while they were making it, but maybe it’s……”

“Eating homemade chocolate………You are very brave. I don’t know if you’re the type of person who cares about that sort of thing, Kana-chan.”

“I was still in junior high at the time. We were girls …… and I didn’t think too much about it.”

Kanami recalls that she once asked her sister, who was a big eater, to help her because she couldn’t eat more, Including her friend chocolate.

In hindsight, it may have been a risky attempt, but Kanami is sure her sister didn’t mind it, as she is such a thick-skinned woman that she doesn’t mind picking up any food.

“Anyway, that’s why I don’t remember giving chocolate to boys very often. So I thought I’d give Ran a gift with all the love I can give.”

“Oh…… I think it’s a good idea, but…… Last year, Sado-chan lamented that it was impossible to make chocolates in this country because of the lack of ingredients.”

“…… Last year?”

Kanami makes a thoughtful expression as she thinks about how fast the months go by.

“I thought it had been less than half a year.”

“I think Kiririn will be happy if you do something naughty for him even without chocolate. He was very happy when I dressed in a gym uniform before, and Kiririn seems to like cosplay.”

Kanami wasn’t sure if gym clothes counted as cosplay or not, though.

Whether by chance or not, a girl who seemed to know her way around came into the cafeteria, and Saki stopped her with a big wave of her hand.

“Yuririn, can I have a word with you?”

She calls out to Yuri Fujiyoshi, who has just come in, with a frank name - Saki is usually like this with everyone. Yuri seems to be confused by the sudden call.

“What is it?”

“Do you have any outfits that would look good on Kana-chan?”

“A costume that would look good on Inugami-san:…… Is it cosplay or something like that?”

“I’m not sure. Yuririn seems to know a lot about that kind of thing.”

“Hmm.”

While spinning an oddly formal tone, Yuri puts her hand on her chin and ponders.

She wrinkled her brow as she shook her twin-tails - what a surreal sight.

“Inugami-san is tall and has a great figure, so I think a costume that shows off her raw body would suit her.”

After licking her lips, Yuri turned her serious gaze to Kanami and looked at her body carefully, as if she were inspecting it.

“It might be better to emphasize the healthy beauty of the body than to bring out the vulgar eroticism unnecessarily… It’s sexy, but it’s not indecent. It’s a bit aggressive, but I’m sure Inugami’s style will make it look seductive.”

Yuri let out some disturbing information. Kanami started to worry.

“And Inugami-san is the kendo girl - you’re like a department store for moe elements, with her black hair in a ponytail. Hmmm, I’d recommend a bikini armour.”

Kanami and Saki look at each other at the unfamiliar words coming from Yuri’s mouth.

“Bi, bikini, ah-mah, ……?”

“Bikini……What is that, is it a swimming costume or something?”

Kanami vaguely picturing a bikini costume in her mind.

For Kanami, who has spent her entire life focused on kendo and public morals, with fashion and dressing up a secondary concern, the new words and katakana words that appear in today’s fashion magazines are almost completely new territory.

Anyway, even Saki, who has a certain amount of knowledge of fashion and other trendy things compared to Kanami, is very knowledgeable. She is nodding her head in wonder if a bikini is a very popular fashion.

Considering Kanami and Saki, who seem yet to understand, Yuri shook the twin tails with “Fumu”, took out a paper from her chest, and started running her pen.

“It’s like this. In this world - even in the continent, there are some people who use it in tropical countries where humidity is high! But when you get to arid areas like deserts, people tend to wear clothes that wrap around their entire body to protect them from direct sunlight.”

Kanami looks at the parchment handed to her by Yuri and goes rigid with the paper in her hands.

When Saki looked into Kanami’s hand, her eyes widened in surprise and she put her hand to her mouth, which was loosening meaningfully.

“Wow, that’s exciting.”

“Is this really a garment ……?”

There is a shiny - metallic wind-held costume that covers only the chest and waist area, as befits the name bikini armor. If the word “bikini” had not been included, Kanami would have mistaken it for some kind of underwear innerwear.

In the original world, when summer comes, they often see swimming costumes of this design on display in shopping malls. Even Kanami has never worn a swimming costume with such an exciting fabric area. Even in the summer camp of the club activities, she did not take a swimming costume for leisure, so during the break time, she just rested her body on the beach in plain clothes.

Kanami remembered the last time she saw it was when her sister was forcing her to give her feedback on a fashion show she was putting on at home (I think she was going swimming with her university friends or something for that reason).

“If you wear knee socks with this, I think you’ll look great! If it were up to me, I’d love it if you wore silver metallic boots.”

“Yuririn, do you think boys would like it if Kana wore something like this?”

“I don’t think they’ll be disappointed. Boys love this sort of thing.”

“Hmm. Before - I think it was Megane-kun. When I brought up the topic of mecha or robotics or something like that, they really got into it, and so maybe boys like shiny costumes like this.”

Saki smiles with ‘Kihihi’ sound and her smile is as if she looks like an evil female executive.

However, this is too much exposure. Kanami may think that a high school girl who walks around the courtyard half naked, is half hearted. In fact, given Kanami’s personality, it would be better if she got rid of everything and became a complete stripper.

Whether or not Saki knows about Kanami’s struggles, she has already distracted herself from the topic of Bikini Armor and has been making casual small talk with Yuri.

“By the way, I’ve been wondering about you for a while. You’ve been acting a bit strange today, Yuririn.”

“HA?!”

Yuri’s voice trailed off.

In response to the high-pitched voice that must have come out of her mouth unintentionally, Yuri covered her mouth in a panic.

Her cheeks seemed to be slightly flushed.

“Well, well, well, it wasn’t a big deal! I was just a bit nervous - or excited, I should say - for the first time in my life! It wasn’t a big deal!”

Yuri shakes her face from side to side, clearly in a panic. Her twin-tails swayed with the intense repetitive motion.

She’s the type of girl who can’t tell a lie, or maybe she’s the type of girl whose face shows it easily. Saki can’t deny that she’s a lovely girl, but when she reacts in such an exaggerated way, she can’t help but be concerned.

“What did he do to you?”

“He didn’t do anything to me!”

“Did you do something?”

“…… I didn’t do anything for him, Not at all!”

Yuri, who had become like a boiled octopus, ran out of the dining room.

“You’re teasing her too much, Shirayuki.”

“But Kana, you were wondering too, weren’t you? I’m sure you’re wondering why Yuririn was so excited about something.”

Kanami would be lying if she said it didn’t bother her.

The reaction Yuri gave just now must have something to do with Ran.

What did Ran do to her? Kanami would like to believe that the reason why she can only think of erotic things when she say about Ran to do them is not because Kanami has become a slutty girl.

It’s probably because of Ran’s usual behavior that he has become predictable. Kanami is sure it’s not because she has started to think only of naughty things.

“But it’s erotic……”

Kanami looked down at the parchment in her hand - an illustration drawn by Yuri.

Kanami wonders if this outfit will really make Ran happy. Ran likes tits, that much is true. But it’s better to show it off rather than hide it, Kanami thinks, as a girl.

“Oh, Ran once asked me to leave my knee socks on”

Kanami quietly said to herself that she had once had sex with Ran while she was completely naked and wearing only socks.

Compared to Kanami and Sahime, Yuri is more knowledgeable about her hands and body. Unsure that Yuri’s opinion is wrong, Kanami ruminates on the previous exchange in her mind.

“Bikini armour, or……”

“I think Kiririn would love it if I dressed like this, put some chocolate between my breasts and said, ‘Here you go’.”

High school girls are very imaginative at this age. The young body is sensitive to pleasure and happiness, even to the point of being hypersensitive.

In addition, Kanami is actually a very chubby girl.

Kanami’s fantasies come alive and progress when she sees Saki making a cleavage and muttering strange words like “It’s chocolate boobs”.

On the bed, Kanami, wearing what looks like bikini armour, is standing face to face with Ran.

Kanami is sitting in a girl’s seat, slightly bent forward as if to emphasize her breasts, looking up at Ran. Her skin-coloured cleavage is soaked with sweat, and the bitter-sweet dessert of the evening is nestled between them.

This is Ran. Kanami is sure he will not hesitate to suck her cleavage without mercy.

Ran runs his tongue through her cleavage and licks every inch of it. After burying his face in her tits and licking them, Ran will surely lose his patience and want to take the next step.

What would Ran do? Kanami in a costume hoping to boost her lover’s lust who has taken the trouble to wear a bikini armor. It’s like stripping naked - she would do such a wild thing.

Also, Ran would ask her to take off only half her armour and leave her knee-highs on.

Kanami wonders if he will be more excited than usual. He might make a mess of her more than usual.

“Kana, you’re drooling.”

“……ha?”

She wipes the drool from the corner of her mouth and clears her throat.

“I should control myself. I’ve been letting my imagination run wild.”

“It’s still too embarrassing …… Is there anything else I can do to make Ran happy?”

In the face of such weakness, Saki thought for a while -and nodded a little, as if she had come to a conclusion. She licked the edge of her mouth with her tongue and said the thought that had come to him.

“……why don’t you do something like a doggy?”

“What kind of doggy stuff?”

“Do you want to wear a dog-ear or grow a tail?The rest is hmmm……Maybe I’ll go against Misuzu and give her a doggy ending.”

Kanami is on all fours on the bed with her dog-ears and tail.

She is crawling on the bed with her bottom sticking out, licking his crotch while Ran strokes her head.

Kanami’s hair is ruffled as she makes sweet noises. “I love you so much, Ran,” or “I want you to give me lots of love today,” in a dog-like tone.

Ran would grab Kanami’s tail and hug her tightly, stroking the inumi on top of her head then he will whisper in her ears “I’m going to have to discipline you, you naughty puppy” He loved Kanami from the bottom of his heart, as she panting and whimpering-

“Kana-chan! Now your nose is bleeding!”

“Hmm?”

Kanami quickly uses healing magic to stop the bleeding.

“How quick am I to get a nosebleed before Ran even eats the chocolate.”

“Shirayuki, I can only think of a cloudy development when it comes to bikini armor, dog-like play, chocolate and Ran…”

“White Day has come and gone, hasn’t it?”

Saki grinning, as if she said something good.

There is no difference between talking about Valentine’s Day on White Day and the joke is not funny to be honest, Kanami looked up to the sky with a look of wanting to say something.

Whether or not Saki knew about Kanami’s distress, she didn’t even show any sign of holding back her laughter, and her eyes narrowed in amusement.

“Can I have penis milk in return? Just for White Day.”

Saki makes a serious face momentarily and spins such a thing in a slightly low voice. From the way she phrases things and the way she inflects, Saki is trying to imitate Ran’s voice.

In any case, since she has a relatively high pitch among girls, her imitation was not that perfect.

It would have been better if Mikoshiba or her was the one doing the imitation.

“Ran would never say that.”

“It’s true, Kiririn usually call it ‘penis’ instead of ‘dick’.”

Kanami’s response to Saki’s joke by pointing out what Ran wouldn’t say.

“…… That’s what I thought.”

“Which one is it? it’s more visual to say ‘Ochi x Chin’ rather than Pe x Su”

“Stop it.”

Shirayuki, who is still reeling from the earlier banter, lets out a giggle and holds her tongue.

Adolescent girls are sometimes referred to as being at the age when they laugh at the mere fall of a pair of chopsticks.

Kanami helplessly looked at her friend’s face, which still hadn’t stopped laughing.

In fact, even Kanami has seen the important part of Ran. She’s now unsure because she’s been fantasizing about a naked Ran for a while now, or because she is vaguely aware of Ran’s crotch, regardless of Kanami’s intentions.

From memory, Kanami thinks she can understand what Saki said.

It is true that, in a state of war, the penis is very strong and masculine, but when it has done what it was supposed to do, it would start sagging. But to Kanami even if it starts to sag, frankly it has a cute appearance.

A hazy memory gradually becomes clearer.

In addition to clearly remembering Ran’s lower abdomen, she ruminates in her head about what Saki had said earlier.

“…………”

“Kana-chan, you’re so chubby.”

“Fu, Kuku…I can’t do it, Saki, Fufu, that kind of delicate topic, to talk about it in such a funny way…Kuku…”

“Kana-chan, you’re laughing too much! What are you going to do next time you’re in bed with Kiririn, if you look between your legs and laugh? Hey, Kana-chan, are you listening? Already, Kana-chan, Fuku……,stop laughing already!”

With the reassurance that no one else is around, both Saki and Kanami start talking about their boyfriends’ crotch.

As the topic of conversation continues, both Saki and Kanami blush and grin meaningfully at each other, they continue to laugh, they make fun of each other, pecking each other on the cheeks and laughing in pitiful voices, creating a lively atmosphere.

“Thank God you’re both here.”

“Hyah!”

Both of them are surprised that they see the very person they had been talking about.

“R,Ra,Ran! W-what,why are you here?!”

Aside from Saki, who was swallowed up in laughter again as soon as she saw his face, Kanami, whose astonishment outweighed her strangeness, was able to cope with the sudden appearance of the man himself, although she was impatient.

Ran looks at Kanami and Saki with a puzzled look on his face. Ran tilts his head curiously at Saki, who blushes and struggles to hold her mouth shut.

In the face of such a blank stare (which he couldn’t possibly understand) Kanami felt the funny feeling that she had somehow managed to squeeze into her slowly creeping up.

Kanami’s poker face falls apart. It’s not unreasonable to ask Ran, who doesn’t know about the conversation they just had. It’s no wonder that when they’re in the middle of a conversation about their favourite person’s pathetic but adorable side, and the person of the talk suddenly shows up, Kanami can’t help but be irrationally tickled.

Kanami turned her face down, her shoulders shaking as she tried not to look at Ran’s face.

Gradually descending from the chest to the abdomen, it reached the part of the body that had been mentioned earlier. Kanami’s patience has reached its limit.

“………kyunn!!”

She coughs away the faint giggles that escape her mouth.

Kanami chastises herself for her shallow thinking, saying that it is the work of a junior high school student to make fun of someone for their genitals.

With a dignified expression on her face, she stared at Ran’s crotch, not daring to look him straight in the face.

“What’s the matter?”

“No, no, nothing. I didn’t see anything. I swear.”

Kanami was in a hurry to cover up the fact that she had been staring at his crotch. Ran seems to have interpreted it in a different conclusion and misunderstood what was going on.

Kanami was staring at her lover’s crotch in broad daylight, and Ran wondered what she thought of it.

“Staring at it won’t make it hard and it’s not like I have an erection all the time.”

“――――Buhh, Hyuu”

Kanami was able to endure, but not Saki, who had been lying on the floor for a while now.

She blows up so loudly that she plops down on the table and starts to shake, using her arms as a pillow.

Ran looked deeply mystified by Saki’s reaction, but Kanami whoes in a situation where she pinches her thighs. Unable to offer any witty assistance, she tried her best to keep her composure.

“Ran, what do you need us for?”

The second aftermath was likely to come if she remained silent, so Kanami decided to proceed.

Ran seemed to be quite interested in the prostrate and trembling Saki, but Ran quickly looked at Kanami. Ran took out two palm-sized lumps from the basket in his hand and presented them to Kanami and Saki.

When Saki finally stopped her wave of laughter, she stared at the lump handed to her, then twitched her nose - and instantly her face broke into a surprise.

“Uwahh, is this a cake?”

“But it has no cream or chocolate, just plain.”

“Kya-, it smells so good. What’s this for Ran?”

“I’ve just learnt how to make them from the butler and the maid. I’ve never made sweets before, so I’m not sure if I’ve got it right.”

“Did Kiririn make this? Can I open it? Can I?”

Saki carefully unwraps the wrapping paper, showing the happy reaction of a child who has found a Christmas present. It’s burnt in places, but it’s more than enough for a first-time baker. With a twinkle in her eye, Saki took a bite of Ran’s homemade baked goods. She puts her hands on her cheeks and her face melts with happiness.

“Hmmm……I’m so happy. I can’t wait to eat my boyfriend’s homemade cake.”

“How’s it taste?”

“It’s really great! The wrapping is so cute and beautiful, isn’t Kiririn too girlie?”

“……even though Ran have a lot of boy power between his legs”

In response to such a line that Kanami muttered unintentionally, Saki once again said “Pfff…” and fell down on the table and started laughing.

After fluttering her legs and laughing a lot, Saki looked at Kanami with a slightly angry face.

“Kana, you’re terrible.”

“Welcome back.”

Kanami proudly raises her mouth, tries the handmade cake to her mouth.

Kanami, who is actually quite picky when it comes to homemade sweets, doesn’t want to criticize the cake that her beloved boy classmate has put his heart and soul into making for her.

Even the ingredients used are inferior to those used in modern Japan by several orders of magnitude.

If she had been harsher (say, if it had been my sister or brother who made it), Kanami might have pointed out that it was a little too moist, or that it needed more work to keep it from burning. But just the fact that the boy she loves made it for her warms her heart so much.

“…… is delicious.”

“It was good.”

Kanami can’t find any clever words of praise, so she blurts out a few words, and Ran expresses pure joy in response. — although the position has already been reversed at this point., but for Kanami, it seems like a no-brainer way to spend the anniversary.

“But how did you know that I and Kana-chan were in the cafeteria? If there had been anyone else, I think you’d be in a lot of trouble.”

Kanami tasted every last bite of the cake and then swallowed it down.

It is natural to be wary of the presence of boys, though. If there had been other girls, there wouldn’t have been enough cakes, as she is very gluttonous when it comes to sweet things, Kanami nodded to herself as she looked into Ran’s empty basket.

“I’m sure Kiririn has already taken this into account.”

As she says this, she grabs a handful of her short black hair and makes two knots. When Kanami saw this, she remembered the boiled octopus twin-tails that had walked out of the cafeteria denying as hard as she could.

“It’s quite embarrassing to have your secret plans revealed”.

“I gave Yuri the cake and she was more excited than I expected, she wanted to thank me and she wouldn’t listen.”

“I can imagine what it would have been like,” Kanami said, imagining the scene.

Kanami’s eyes fell a little sadly. Both Yuri and Saki had a girlish - healthy and cute - reaction to Ran giving them sweets. Kanami, on the other hand, only commented on how delicious it was.

In her field of vision, Ran and Saki are chatting happily. If she could be as cute and girly as that, she be able to attract Ran’s attention even more.

“I’d better be going. It’s dangerous if linger here any longer”

“It’s a pity. I want to spend more time with Kiririn.”

With a sultry look on her face and her lips pursed, Ran enveloped her in a soft hug and stroked her head.

“Tonight, I’m going to give you all the love I can.”

“I can’t believe you said that. I’m going to serve you a lot of sweets as repayment”

Saki propped herself up on one knee on a chair and patted her thigh. Ran smiles back at the gesture and then leaves the dining room.

Staring at Ran’s back, Kanami sat silently in a chair for a while, then hurried to Ran. She told Saki, she was going for a short run. Saki, who was still looking at the baked confectionery wrapping paper with a dreamy expression, nodded her head.

“Ran!”

Kanami stopped Ran, who was walking down the corridor without a wig on, as best she could.

Ran, who was carrying an empty basket, must have recognised Kanami’s voice, because he turned around and greeted Kanami with a calm look on his face.

“What’s the matter?”

“I want to give you a gift too. Will you accept it?”

Ran nodded his head with a smile on his face and the corners of his mouth turned up. Relieved by this response, Kanami tightened her grip on Ran’s hand and intertwined her fingers to pinch his - the ring finger of his left hand.

She manages to keep her body from shaking with nervousness and, with the most natural gesture possible, places the silver ring on Ran’s finger. Ran looks at Kanami with an expression of surprise at the unexpected gift. Kanami smiles back and gently pulls Ran’s left ring finger to her mouth - and kisses him.

The flowing action, which is the same act as fairy tale prince, left Ran puzzled. Eventually, his understanding caught up with him, and his cheeks flushed as he looked away in embarrassment.

“A ring on a Valentine’s Day gift of sweets sounds like a marriage proposal.”

“I don’t mind if you take it that way. I’m not going to change my mind about loving you forever.”

The directness of the confession has pushed Ran beyond the limits of happiness. He held his open hand up to the sun and looked at the ring in the window. His gaze is more innocent than masculine, like that of a maiden.

“This is dangerous, Kanami is too cool.”

“… I’d be happy if you said I’m cute.”

Kanami is a bit disgusted with herself for not being honest with Ran.

However, Kanami was embraced gently by Ran.

“You look lovely, Kanami. I’m so happy.”

Ran embraces Kanami in all her good and bad qualities.

Kanami is not the prince that all the girls wanted.

Kanami is just a girl looking for her own prince. And the man in front of her is her prince.

“Yea, I think this is more my style.”

In the prince’s chest, Kanami talks to herself about such things.

Today is White Day. It is a day to give back the love of your favorite lover with all your heart.

“Kanami.”

“What is it, Ran?”

Kanami smiles happily back at the kindness in his eyes.

Ran reached out to touch the edge of Kanami’s mouth, picked up a piece of baked cake and brought it to her mouth.

With a meaningful expression, Ran closed one eye.

In the face of such a gesture, Kanami’s face turned red like a boiled octopus.
