Kawano-kun's Sex Friend - Chapter 7

I was teased over trivial things, and each time I felt frustrated, but somewhere in my heart, I was actually happy about it, even delighted. I wondered if they might respond like this, or how happy I’d be if they said it this way, just like a girl falling in love for the first time.

I thought I understood that it was ridiculous. At my age, being disturbed by such an arrogant brat, what would happen if others found out? The thought alone was terrifying.

“Huh? Unapproved absence?”

“That’s right. He’s not picking up his phone… Sorry, Maru-chan, but could you stop by and check on him on your way back?”

It happened over the weekend. Kawano-kun, who was supposed to come to work, didn’t show up. Rina, who was called in to replace him, was so furious that no one could approach her.

“Why… me?”

“Maru-chan, you’re the closest to Yuuri’s house. It’s risky for a girl to go alone… Natsu!”

“Y~es?”

“Could you go to Yuuri’s house with Maru-chan on your way back?”

“I don’t mind, but just the two of us girls?”

“You two should be fine together.”

Saying that, the manager quickly returned to his work. I wondered what the reasoning was behind thinking two women would be fine.

(But this is probably my chance to go to his house… Wait, what kind of chance am I talking about!)

It would be a lie to say I’m not interested in a man’s—probably a bachelor’s—apartment. In fact, I rather like it. Is it messy, or is he a minimalist? Does he hang his laundry outside, or does he dry it indoors? Just imagining what the inside smells like makes me smile.

“Nacchan, are you okay?”

“Huh, what do you mean?”

“Going to a guy’s apartment?”

“It’s totally~ fine! But, is Ryo okay? Won’t Takayuki-san get mad?”

“…We broke up.”

“What!? Tell me more about that!”

Nacchan really loves hearing about other people’s love lives. I waited for a moment when no one was around in the shop, then spilled everything. Maybe I just wanted someone to listen to me.

“This is the place.”

Using the address on the piece of paper given to me by the manager, Nacchan and I arrived at the third floor of a three-story steel-frame apartment building. It’s really close to my apartment. I can even see the roof from here.

Ding-dong, I rang the intercom—no answer. I rang it once, twice more, but there was no sign of anyone coming.

“No way, he’s not dead, right?”

“I-I don’t think so.”

“Heeey! Yuuri!”

“Nacchan!?”

Nacchan shouted while banging on the front door. When I asked her to stop because it would be a nuisance to the neighbors, she continued knocking without saying a word.

“Where could he be?”

“What do we do?”

“Hmmm… it’s unlocked…”

“Eh?”

The doorknob Nacchan was holding turned with a click, indicating the door was unlocked.

“Wh-what do we do, Ryo?”

“What do you mean, ‘what do we do’!? What should we do?”

There was no option for me not to enter the room, but rushing in immediately would seem strange to Nacchan. I tried to calm my impatience as I exchanged a glance with her in that brief moment.

“What?”

“”KyaaAAAHHH!!””

“How noisy…”

The door opened from the inside. The one who opened it was, of course, Kawano-kun, the resident of this place—but.

“W-w-why are you half-naked?!”

“I don’t remember.”

“Huh!?”

Although he was wearing shorts on his lower half, his upper body was completely bare. His muscular, shirtless form left me mesmerized.

“Yuuri, your muscles are crazy. They’re insane.”

“Want to touch?”

“Eh~ I’ll touch it.”

Whether it was the mood or something I couldn’t understand… Nacchan was touching Kawano-kun’s large chest muscles. I swallowed, feeling envious.

(Wait, what am I even watching?)

On top of that, I even wanted to touch him… I was so jealous that my throat went dry. No. I tell myself that wanting to touch him means I’ve completely lost.

“Kawano-kun, how could you skip work without telling anyone? We came all the way here because we were worried about you.”

“Skipping work without notice…? Ah, I was drinking with friends all night and couldn’t wake up.”

“…What?”

I was going to say, “You should apologize first,” but Nacchan continued touching him. Her long fingers reached his well-defined abs and even his side muscles.

“Nacchan, let’s go home!”

“Ryo, why don’t you touch it as well?”

“I don’t want to!”

“Why are you angry?”

“Ah… sorry…”

Then silence. Immediately after, they resumed their conversation, leaving me behind as I turned away.

“I still have some friends here. Nacchan, how about drinking and going home? We have alcohol and food.”

“Hmm~ What should I do?”

“Nacchan!? You can’t do that!?”

I turned around, eyes wide in surprise, and saw Nacchan step into the room. I quickly grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

“Ryo?”

“Nacchan, you can’t… A girl shouldn’t go into a room with two men.”

“Well then, Ryo, why don’t you come too? Yuuri’s food is really good.”

Ah—before I knew it, I was already being dragged into the entrance. Wait a minute, Nacchan, did you just say something crazy…?
