Episode 5 – My Ex-Girlfriend And My Girlfriend (Ex-Girlfriend Older Sister) Showdown, a Little Disaster?

“Etto, why is Takuto here?”

Yuika asks with suspicious eyes as she raises her eyebrows to the center of her head.

The atmosphere was filled with tension.

Rina san relaxed her tensed body and smiled softly.

“Takuto kun took me home.”

“Hmmm, that’s a little surprising. I don’t remember Onee chan and Takuto being that close?”

Yuika asked a strange question as she tilted her head.

Up until now, Rina san and I had never been involved in person without Yuika as an intermediary.

We only had a relationship where we just greeted each other when we passed by. 

It’s only natural for Yuika to have doubts about this.

It’s easy to make up a good excuse here.

But I wasn’t doing anything wrong.

I looked straight into Yuika’s eyes.

“Actually, I’m going out with Rina san.”

“Hm……eh? Sorry, can you repeat that?

“I decided to go out with Rina san. That’s why I sent her home.”

“What’s going on…..oh god, I can’t sort that out.”

Yuika put her right hand on her forehead while making a face as if she had run into a difficult problem.

It seemed like countless question marks were floating over her head.

As if to follow up on Yuika who looked bewildered, Rina san continued.

“Yuika. You dumped Takuto kun, didn’t you?”

“…..Yes, but.”

“Then, it’s okay if I take Takuto-kun, right?”

“………..”

Rina san spoke in a dignified tone while smiling.

Yuka looked up and slightly bit her lower lip.

She didn’t say yes or no, she just kept silent.

“You dumped Takuto kun out of the blue, and you don’t want him to be taken away by someone else?”

“…..Hm. Since we broke up, it’s free for him to do whatever he wants.”

“I see. Then I’ll do as I please.”

“It’s just.”

I could immediately sense that she was in a bad mood.

I flinched when Yuika glared at me sharply.

“W-what is it.”

“If you’re just trying to take revenge on me, there’s no point in doing this.”

“Hah?”

“You went out with my sister because you didn’t like the fact that I suddenly dumped you.”

Yuika is making her own assumptions.

I’m still not convinced about being dumped. But it’s definitely not revenge.

“You’re wrong. I didn’t mean to.”

I’m a little disappointed. How can you make a new girlfriend so easily?”

Yuika looked at me coldly and shrugged her shoulders.

Why did she have to say it like that…..

You were walking with another guy earlier, too.

It’s not confirmed that he is her new boyfriend yet, but I think the line is deep.

Even without that issue, I don’t agree with the way you’re talking about me like this.

I bit my lip and lowered my gaze.

Then Rina san stood in front of me, trying to hide me behind her back.

“Isn’t that a little too self-centered?”

“Huh?”

“You just put your own will into him, Yuika, and without even discussing it with Takuto kun, you forcefully ended the relationship.”

“So what?”

“On top of that, you ask Takuto kun not to have a new girlfriend for a certain period of time? Do you have that much right, Yuika?

“……I-I’m just saying that I’m disappointed, that’s all.”

Yuika’s gaze wandered from side to side while muttering.

Rina san didn’t miss that opportunity. “Does that mean you still have lingering feelings for Takuto kun?”

“T-that’s not it. I don’t have any lingering feelings….”

“If that’s the case, isn’t it strange to be disappointed? Aren’t you disappointed because you’re still expecting it?”

“….S-shut up ! Don’t lecture me all the time !”

Yuika’s engine started as if a string had snapped, and she became furious.

Both Rina and I shrugged by her vigorously.

“You don’t even know how I feel……”

“I-I won’t know if you don’t tell me, right?”

“I can’t help but not to ! I thought about it a lot. On top of that, I broke up with you, Takuto !”

“Y-yuika……”

She yelled as if to vent her anger.

Disregarding the inconvenience for the neighbors, she simply dumped what she had stored inside her heart.　

“W-where are you going……?”

“Convenience store. I mean, don’t mind my behavior all the time.”

Yuika responded with an aggressive attitude.

Rina san and I couldn’t say anything more, and could only follow her back with our eyes.

“A-ahaha ……. I made Yuika angry.”

“R-right.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Why are you apologizing, Rina san?”

“Because I feel like it completely backfired. …… I was trying to make Yuika jealous……

While scratching the side of her head with her finger, Rina san smiled troubledly.

“Yeah…..come to think of it, that’s the reason I went out with Rina san, isn’t it?”

“Isn’t it too soon to forget that?”

“Sorry, things have been jumbled in my head.”

“Oh, that’s right……”

Rina san clasped her hands together and raised her tone to a higher octave.

“Well, for now, I’ll see you tomorrow.”

“Ah, yeah. See you.”

Bye-bye, I waved back at Rina san who waved her hand.

After seeing Rina san enter the house, I turned around and walked away.
