Chapter 253: What"s wrong? 1
As expected, the breakfast that Shishio cooked was heavenly. It was so delicious that they couldn"t help but show a smile on their faces!
"Delicious!"
Everyone ate happily, but then they noticed something strange.
They looked at Shishio and Shiina, and they knew that their relationship was close to each other. However, they were too close, right?
They saw Shishio styled Shiina"s hair into a Dutch Braid ponytail, making her even more beautiful, or rather they had noticed that when Shiina returned on Sunday before, they felt like she had become more attractive, which made them confused.
Shiina was still sleepy, and she didn"t even open her eyes when she ate her breakfast, but her skin was rosy and as beautiful as ever, considering she had eaten extra protein last night.
Looking at Shiina"s situation, Shishio sighed inwardly since Shiina"s stamina was too bad, but when he thought that she was also quite busy with her manga, he knew that he couldn"t bring her to bed every day, which made him helpless. It was also why he made a healthy breakfast that would give her stamina, hoping that she would become a little stronger. He also thought to help her by becoming her manga a.s.sistant so she wouldn"t be too tired.
After all, in the original story, Shiina drew her manga alone, which caused her to be sleep-deprived and get tired every day.
Shishio also knew that this was real life and wasn"t a hentai manga, so it was simply impossible for an ordinary woman to handle his s.e.xual drive every day. He also wasn"t cruel enough to force Shiina to have s.e.x every day since she was still recovering. The best time to have s.e.x with her was probably three or four times a week, or maybe even two times a week, considering her body.
As for what they were doing last night, Shishio was just helping Shiina to sleep comfortably, though the method was only suitable to be done by him alone, or rather, he was the only one who could do it.
Still, even though this was reality and this world wasn"t a hentai manga, it was possible for Shishio to make women into a similar state on the hentai manga and couldn"t walk away from him after they tasted his ability.
As Shishio was in deep thought, Chihiro, Mayumi, and Sayaka had some thoughts on their minds, but they quickly threw away that thought, considering it was impossible, right? It was impossible because they knew that Shishio had a girlfriend and he was also a virgin, so they didn"t think that he would lose his virginity so quickly, right?
However, they didn"t care about any of that, and they noticed the strangeness on Shishio this morning.
Shishio then noticed everyone"s gaze and asked, "Do you want me to set your hair too?"
"Yes!"
They answered subconsciously, but then they realized that this wasn"t what they wanted to ask!
"Shishio-kun, what"s wrong?" Misaki asked after she finished her breakfast with concern on her face.
"Nice, Misaki!" Everyone thought at that moment.
"What"s wrong?" Shishio was confused and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Did something happen?" Misaki asked with a worried expression. She didn"t care about her script at that moment and was cornered about what had happened to Shishio.
Shishio became even more confused. "No, nothing has happened. Why do you think that something has happened to me?"
Shiina also looked at Misaki and also showed confusion.
Roberta didn"t say anything and only ate her breakfast quietly, but she knew somehow why they asked Shishio this question.
"Um, Shishio, I think you should talk if something happens to you," Ritsu said.
"Yeah, if you need help, just ask me," Shiro-san said without hesitation.
With Shishio"s way of communication and food every day, they had been tamed by Shishio, so when they noticed the strangeness on Shishio, they quickly asked him in concern. They might have realized it yesterday, but they thought that he was just tired. However, when the same thing happened in the morning, they were cornered, wondering what had happened to him.
"Did you get dumped by your girlfriend?" Mayumi asked curiously, but at the same time, she felt happy if that happened since, that way, no one in this Sakurasou was in a relationship. She was single, and she didn"t want anyone to be in a relationship with someone until she was in a relationship!
"............"
Everyone stared at Mayumi with a speechless expression.
"No, my relationship with my girlfriend is good." Shishio wondered what they wanted to say, so he asked without hesitation, "If you have something to ask me, then ask. It is so confusing when you try to be so vague."
"Then I"ll be straight." Chihiro looked at Shishio and asked, "Shishio, why don"t you smile?"
"....."
Shishio was lost for words and asked, "That"s all?"
"What do you mean, that"s all?!"
Everyone couldn"t help but get agitated when they heard Shishio"s words. After all, Shishio had always been full of smiles, and even though they didn"t want to admit it, they felt like his smile was nice, and they wanted to see it every day, so when he didn"t smile, they felt so weird and quite uncomfortable, wondering what had happened.
"I"m happy that you"re worried about me, but I have my reason why I don"t smile," Shishio said vaguely.
"Oh? For what reason?" Sayaka was curious, looking at him with a cute expression.
Shishio looked at Sayaka and wondered how many hours that she had trained to create such a cute expression in front of the mirror, but at the same time, he had to admit that her perseverance to become cute was something that he had to admire.
Not all girls were beautiful when they were born in this world. Luckily, there was an invention which was known as make-up. With make-up, everyone could become attractive.
Some people might argue that the beautiful face created by make-up was fake, but Shishio didn"t think so. After all, it was the result of their hard work, and since they had become beautiful, what was the use of complaining? Wasn"t it better that there were more beautiful girls in this world?
Still, the problem now was they were asking him why he didn"t smile until now.
Shishio wanted to say that he didn"t want to make a girl fall in love with him and hurt them, so he didn"t smile. However, he felt it was too narcissistic if he said that, but then he felt his sleeve was tucked.
"Shishio, just smile," Shiina said blankly.
Shishio looked at Shiina for a moment and nodded.
They were confused why Shiina said those words, but then, they saw him smiling for the first time, and somehow they understood why he didn"t try to smile. Somehow, it might be their imagination, but they felt the world was bright and felt like they were healed.
Even Shiro-san was also dumbfounded by this smile.
Shishio then stopped smiling and continued to eat.
"..........."
Everyone was in silence for a while as they were staring at him in a daze.
Chihiro took a deep breath and said, "Shishio."
"Hmm?"
"Try not to smile too much," Chihiro said without hesitation since she knew the smile of her nephew was dangerous!
"Yes, especially in front of those housewives that you"re close with around the neighborhood." Mayumi had a rare solemn expression on her face. "Don"t destroy someone"s family."
"...."
Shishio knew that his smile was dangerous, but was it really that dangerous?
Shishio didn"t think too much, but then he saw the weather prediction and told them that it would be raining later, so he decided to bring an umbrella before going to the school.
---
As they ended their breakfast, they walked together to school. As usual, Shishio, Shiina, Misaki, and Ritsu went to school together.
"Are you going to bring them for your cla.s.smates, Shishio-kun?" Ritsu asked, looking at the paper bag in Shishio"s hand.
"Yes."
Shishio recalled that there was a tradition where someone needed to bring a souvenir for their coworker after they went back from a holiday in this country. Of course, it was only for those salarymen, and as a student, he didn"t need to do that. However, he wanted to control his entire cla.s.s after all, so it was necessary to do this. "Do you want some, Senpai? I have brought a lot."
"No, I"m still full," Ritsu politely rejected since she had tasted the souvenirs that Shishio had brought before and she wasn"t in a mood to eat for now since her mind was a bit complex, especially when she saw how close Shishio and Shiina were, especially when they saw their matching watches.
It was hard not to notice it, and Ritsu could see that Shishio and Shiina were wearing a matching watch, which made her feel a bit uncomfortable. At the same time, she realized that Shiina didn"t return to her room until midnight yesterday.
However, Ritsu sighed in relief when she checked that both Shishio and Shiina were discussing manga and drawing together, but at the same time, she felt a bit lonely since she felt that they had become further away from her. Even though she had prepared for it, she didn"t feel comfortable with this change.
Ritsu glanced at Shishio and sighed inwardly. "If only..." She then realized her bold thought, and her face flushed before she quickly shook her head.
"Shishio-kun! Shishio-kun! Try to smile again!" Misaki asked as she held a camera in her hands.
"....."
Shishio looked at Misaki for a moment, then smiled.
"..." Shiina, Misaki, and Ritsu.
They had somehow prepared for his smile, but somehow, it was so destructive when they saw it again!
"Have you taken the photo?" Shishio asked.
"Oh - oh!" Misaki quickly reacted and took Shishio"s photos since she forgot to take them when he smiled before.
Shishio looked at Misaki, who took his photo, and asked, "Why did you take my photos so suddenly?"
"For my anime," Misaki said without hesitation, even though, in truth, she might want to collect them for herself.
Shishio nodded and didn"t say much. "By the way, Senpai. Your script should be ready tomorrow." The script he had written for Misaki was ready, but he had something to do tonight, and he didn"t want Misaki to bother him.
"Great!" Misaki was beaming with a smile. "I can"t wait for it." She then thought for a while and asked, "By the way, didn"t you want someone to become a "Seiyuu" for the female character? Can I see her first?"
"It"s possible." Shishio nodded. "I"ll tell her first since I haven"t told her anything about this matter." Even though he had intended to invite Nanami to become a "Seiyuu" for his and Misaki"s anime, he hadn"t told her anything.
"Is it that Aoyama-san?" Ritsu asked since she recalled that hard-working girl.
"Yes." Shishio nodded. "Don"t worry, Senpai. She"s studying at "Seiyuu" school, so even though she"s a beginner, it should be alright."
"You don"t need to worry." Misaki patted her chest, causing her b.o.o.bs to undulate up and down. "I"ll teach her thoroughly, so she will become a perfect heroine in my anime!"
"Thank you." Shishio nodded. As for the meaning of this "thank you" was because she let Nanami become a seiyuu or let him see her b.o.o.bs that were undulating up and down, it was better to keep vague.
"Still, Shishio-kun, can you also help me with the dubbing for the male character?" Misaki asked.
"You want me to become the "Seiyuu" of the main character of your anime?" Shishio was speechless.
"Yes!" Misaki nodded with a smile. "You"re the writer of the story, after all, so I think that you should know the feelings of each of the characters in the story better than anyone. You"re good at music too, right? So it shouldn"t be difficult for you to help me with the dubbing, right?
"....." Shishio thought for a moment and nodded. "I don"t mind." He felt that it was also a good idea to try a lot of things.
"Yay!" Misaki jumped happily and directly hugged Shishio. "Thank you!"
"....."
Shishio felt two soft things pressed against his chest, and he had to admit that it felt so comfortable, but he could see that Shiina and Ritsu were staring at him, so he needed to maintain his image. "Senpai, don"t hug me so suddenly."
"Sorry, sorry!" Misaki smiled and didn"t care much. Still, she had to admit that Shishio smelled so good.
If Shishio knew what Misaki was thinking, he would say that he could make his smell better and make her h.o.r.n.y by his pheromone manipulation.
Shishio hadn"t tried his pheromone manipulation, but he knew that it was a dangerous ability. Similar to his "Hypnotic Mastery," so unless it was necessary, he wouldn"t use them.
As they talked, they had arrived at the school, but when Shishio was about to change his shoes.
"Go - Good morning, Oga-kun..."
Shishio was surprised and looked back. He saw Futaba greet him with a red face and thought that it seemed she tried to walk out from her comfort zone slowly, which made him feel happy, so he nodded and greeted her back. "Good morning, Futaba."
Hearing Shishio"s greeting, Futaba sighed in relief and felt happy. Then she heard she was greeted by Shiina, Ritsu, and Misaki one by one, and their greeting put a smile on her face.
Futaba also realized that after she finished greeting everyone, she felt there was a sense of fulfillment on her chest. She thought that greeting someone wasn"t as difficult as she had thought, and she had to admit that it felt comfortable.
Futaba had tried hard and thought about Shishio"s words before, so without hesitation, she greeted him, ignoring the fact that many people were looking at them. She saw that Shishio, Misaki, Shiina, and Ritsu seemed to ignore everyone"s gaze and if they could ignore everyone, then shouldn"t she be able to do the same thing?
Futaba then noticed Shishio brought a paper bag in his hand, which made her quite curious about what was inside.
Shishio then took out some yokan, castella, and mochi on his bag and gave it to Futaba. "Futaba, take this."
Futaba subconsciously received all of them and asked, "This is?"
"I bought them when I visited Enoshima yesterday," Shishio said.
"Enoshima?" Futaba was surprised, and with how smart she was, she didn"t need to guess who Shishio came with to Enoshima, which made her feel quite bitter. However, she nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you, Oga-kun."
They also didn"t say much and said goodbye after Shishio talked for a while and went to his cla.s.s.
When Shishio walked away, Futaba looked at his back, and there was one question that she wanted to ask, but she was quite unsure. She wondered what had happened to him since she didn"t see him smiling.
"What"s happening?"
---
In Shishio"s cla.s.s, everyone was directly surrounded by Shishio when he told them that he would share the souvenirs that he had bought on Enoshima. Even though it was only sweet, they were happy since everyone received one, especially those who were loners and the herbivore ones in the cla.s.s since they received a sweet from Shishio. They had prepared not to receive anything, but not only did they receive one, and Shishio also remembered their names, which made them happy!
As for Sorata, he didn"t move and had a complicated expression on his face. He looked at everyone happy when they received a sweet from Shishio and couldn"t help but snort inwardly, thinking they were childish. However, when he saw everyone showing surprise and amazement on their faces, he was quite curious whether it was that delicious.
"Oga, give me one more!" Tagami said without hesitation.
"Me too! Me too!" Usa also asked.
They were grown-up boys, so they ate a lot!
"Hey, don"t be so greedy!"
"We want to eat some too!"
The girls felt unhappy when the boys were greedy since they also wanted to eat the souvenirs that were bought by Shishio too!
As for Shishio, he didn"t care what Sorata was thinking and returned to his seat after he had shared the souvenirs with everyone and pacified their relationship since they almost got into a fight. He looked at Maiko, Mea, and Nana, who were talking to each other. He could see that they were in a deep discussion, so he didn"t bother them since he knew they were talking about troublesome conversation, and it was better not to be involved since it would become even troublesome.
Shishio thought that a high school student was simple, or rather a human was simple, but they loved to make everything so complicated.
"I"m not that different, though..." Shishio let out a sigh inwardly.
"Shishio-kun, what"s wrong?" Nanami turned and asked him. The truth, there were a lot of questions that she wanted to ask, such as whether Shishio was at Shinjuku on Sat.u.r.day, but right now, she needed to ask this question first.
"What"s wrong?" Shishio raised his eyebrow and felt confused. "What do you mean?" He was wondering how many times someone had asked him this question.
"Has something happened?" Nanami noticed that Shishio didn"t smile from the beginning to the end, which made her wonder what had happened to him.
"Nothing has happened. I"m alright." Shishio wondered whether it was so rare for him not to smile, but then he changed the topic of conversation directly. "Right, Nanami, can I ask you something?"
"What?" Nanami asked curiously, wondering what Shishio wanted to ask.
"Do you know Misaki-senpai?" Shishio asked.
"Of course, I know." Nanami nodded without hesitation. "She"s very famous throughout the school as the famous genius animator!" She had a dream to become a "Seiyuu," and of course, she knew about Misaki. If she didn"t know, then her will to become a "Seiyuu" was just like that. "What"s wrong? Why did you mention Misaki-senpai so suddenly?"
"Misaki-senpai is about to make a new anime. Do you want to become the main heroine in her anime?" Shishio asked.
"..."
"Eh?"
That was the only word that Nanami could say at that moment.
"Ehhh!!!!"
Watching her reaction, somehow, Shishio felt that it was a bit too cliche, right?
