Eventually, I bought four sets of underwear. It was a large expense.
Next is clothes. We have to coordinate everything.
Because my budget is limited, reasonably priced places are good.
It goes without saying, but that’s why we came here. It’s a well-known UNIQLO.
(TN: Uniqlo is a j.a.panese casual wear designer, manufacturer and retailer.)
There are lots of things to see again after checking out women"s clothing.
There are lots of types of clothes that do not exist for men. I have never heard of a dress for men.
That"s why I have stopped recommending a dress that I have not worn so far.
“Right, try it on.” (Kaori)
That is something that doesn’t need to be said.
I take it to the fitting room reluctantly, but what’s this, it’s easy to wear.
I’ve already been humiliated with the underwear, so the one piece is nothing. It’s an easy victory.
But my crotch is cool. This feels too uncertain. Well, they’re not pants.
“Can you wear pants under a dress?” (Kei)
“What?!” (Kaori)
What I can’t do that?!
“Well, there are girls that normally dress like that.” (Kaori)
I check the area and girls dressed like that certainly seem to be here and there.
That’s good! As a man, I’m happy! I’ll say that much!
“I see.” (Kei)
That said, it still has to be done.
Well, I"m getting used to it.
It gives a strange feeling, like when a person that normally wears briefs changes to boxers
I"ll get used if there"s a chance to wear it.
"But, it costs a little too much.” (Kei)
We have a shopping cart with us and it’s full of clothes.
"Naturally, because you are starting from scratch. We aren’t done yet.” (Kaori)
“What?!” (Kei)
This is bad and this is the second time today. I"m not sure if this is enough, but how am I going bring back the clothes I"ve got right now?
I don"t feel like I can do this alone! At least I have to have Kaori.
“Will you help me carry this home?” (Kei)
When I said that. Kaori looks at the cart and then at me.
“Shall we stop for today?” (Kaori)
Right.
Anyway, my wallet is almost empty again.
“Hey, Kaori.” (Kei)
We are heading to the exit of the mall holding bags of clothes, shoes, and accessories in both hands.
I couldn"t stand it anymore and I said to Kaori.
“What?” (Kaori)
I confess to Kaori, while I hold my legs together and endure.
“I need to go to the bathroom.” (Kei)
“You should go then.” (Kaori)
I wanted to give her an expression of " What are you saying ", but I remembered my situation and didn"t do it.
Instead of a huge sigh, I turn to head to the restroom as she said.
“Shall we go?” (Kaori)
“Yes.” (Kei)
There were three entrances to the restrooms.
Men"s, women"s, and multi-purpose restrooms.
“Hey…” (Kei)
I said to Kaori while staring at three restrooms.
“What?” (Kaori)
Kaori should realize why I’m hesitating.
“Which should I go in?” (Kei)
“Except for the men’s room, which one is OK?”(Kaori)
She answered, after a long silence, as if spitting out something bitter.
Oh I see. So the men’s room is a no.
"I’ll use the private room, so neither men nor women will change.” (Kei)
“Well, I guess it’s OK. Go on. You’re at your limit, right?” (Kaori)
Yes, I was at my limit a minute ago.
But I think to myself, what do I actually do in the restroom? I should be able to endure it.
It’s useless, I’m just wasting time here.
“I know it"s natural to go into the women’s room with how I look. I just can"t get used to it.” (Kei)
“Well, that might be true. It would be impossible for me to go to the men’s room as well.” (Kaori)
“I’ll be back.” (Kei)
“Go on then.” (Kaori)
I was sent off by Kaori and I went to the entrance where the women’s room symbol was drawn.
Fortunately, it was a remote restroom and there was no one else there.
I enter the stall, close the door and lock it.
Well, I pull down my culottes skirt and panties and sit on the toilet.
This is all right, isn"t it? Ready? Let it out? What’s happening?
After asking myself a few times, I force my whole body to relax.
OK, a little bit.
[Kei Laughs]
It took a lot of effort! Hey, great! I don"t hear this!
“Hey, what are you doing? You heard it! What a scream!” (Kaori)
Kaori responded to my scream and I heard her voice from around the corner. Did you come here worrying?
“It took a lot of effort! It spilled!” (Kei)
"Yes?! Why is that? I mean, what spilled!?” (Kaori)
You know! I want you to teach me.
Ugh, my a.s.s is covered with pee. It’s disgusting.
I use a lot of toilet paper to clean my b.u.t.t and thighs.
I wipe the important part. No, no, no. I have to be gentle. What are you doing? It"ll set off your delusions.
Oh, I have to clean the toilet seat as well.
“Huh…” (Kei)
I’m tired. Mainly mentally.
[Sighs]
I pull up my panties and skirt and flush the toilet.
“What happened? Please use the ‘sound princess’ properly.” (Kaori)
(TN: A ‘Sound Princess’ aka a ‘toilet onomatopoeia’ simulate washing sounds and the like to cover more embarra.s.sing sounds.)
“What’s a ‘sound princess’? I didn’t go to Ryugu castle.” (Kei)
(TN: ‘Ryugu Castle’ is from JN folklore. She’s saying she didn’t become old. 1 day at the castle is equal to 100 years outside. You can look it up if you want to know more.)
Old man, G.o.d forbid. It would be good if I could return to being a man, but its better left as now rather than become an old man.
The possibility of getting old, without changing s.e.xes, is big.
(TN: Point out the obvious much?)
“Not that! It’s a sound m.u.f.fler! The sound of the water will make me unable to hear you.” (Kaori)
Kaori was screaming at first, but in the end she was holding her forehead.
Oh, they have such things in women"s restrooms? Men don"t care about these kind of things.
“Perhaps, what I should have really noticed is to keep my legs closed?” (Kei)
“That"s right. Oh, I hope you"re leaning forward.” (Kaori)
That said, Kaori seemed to have given up.
