I really don't want to be reborn.

"Little black cat, what are you saying? I don't understand."

Kasumigaoka Utaha handed a bag of chicken wings to Eriri, sat down next to Kyosuke, took off her shoes and exhaled, "We're all tired from walking."

"Being cute is acceptable."

"Boyfriend, give me a massage."

Kousaka Kyosuke hesitated, feigning composure, when he suddenly realized his calf had touched something.

Kasumigaoka Utaha reached out and slid her toes, encased in smooth socks, along his leg from bottom to top, her palm supporting his chin: "You're so tired, do you want me to massage you?"

"Darling, don't do this."

She gave his shin a light kick and suddenly asked, "When you visited the Kogiso family this morning, did you run into Setsuna, the girl with the twin tails who often works there?"

"We encountered it; that squirrel was as cunning and treacherous as ever."

"Oh?"

"She's trying to seduce me!"

"Heh, so honest?" Kasumigaoka remained noncommittal, staring at him with interest. "I have a feeling you're hiding something, just like Uncle Sawamura's expression before he knelt on the keyboard in the study..."

"It's their family matter, so you shouldn't meddle."

A sly smile appeared on the girl's fair face: "It seems you also figured out that there's something going on with that family. You're really clever, my boyfriend. You deserve a reward for that."

After gently glossing over the matter of Ogiso Setsuna, she discovered that Mrs. Sawamura was a very worthy role model to learn from.

A magnanimous woman won't be too concerned about her man's interactions with other women. This is a woman's unique understanding and gentleness, after all, excellent men are never short of women around them.

Mrs. Sawamura, who remained gentle and magnanimous even knowing her husband was reminiscing with his old flame, possessed a breadth of mind and magnanimity that she could learn from for a lifetime.

Kyosuke Kosaka was more interested in the reward she mentioned. He took her slender foot in his hand and gently tickled it with his fingers: "What kind of reward is it? How about you sleep with me tonight?"

"you sure?"

Kasumigaoka wasn't afraid of him. She leaned back slightly, revealing her fair neck, and her foot broke free from his hand, but instead of pulling it back, she rubbed it around his ankle: "Why don't you come to Eriri's room? She won't mind anyway."

The blond guy sitting next to them could no longer ignore the two bastards' blatant flirting and roared, "I mind this so much, okay! You can have your man yourself, I have my own—"

She exploded halfway through her sentence.

“You’ve revealed something terrible, Eriri… no, Ms. Kashiwagi Eri.”

Eriri sank down.

Kasumigaoka continued to tease her boyfriend with her foot, lightly biting her lip, her eyes more alluring and moist than ever before, her voice so low it was almost inaudible: "Don't worry, I've already bought the medicine and insurance, just now."

"..."

Which one do you want to use?

Kyosuke Kosaka stared at her in surprise: "I didn't know you had this perverted side—what happened to you? Did your dad cheat on you too?"

She didn't say anything.

Her worries about her boyfriend's personality finally outweighed her fear of her hymen breaking.

Can sex fill his emptiness?

Besides, tonight would be the perfect time for the two of them to have their first time together. She wasn't a pervert, nor did she crave sex; she just felt he should want it.

"Let's forget about it now."

That's what my boyfriend said.

The timing is fine, the people are fine, but the location is wrong.

"It's probably better not to do it at someone else's house the first time," Kousaka Kyosuke shook his head. "Actually, in my opinion, the last day of January next year would be the most suitable."

"Huh?"

"That was your birthday, baby. Your hymen has been intact for another year, making it even more valuable..."

"I am speechless. What a monstrous statement this is."

The girl puffed out her cheeks, and finally smiled, like a lotus blooming.

"Let's go for a walk after dinner."

"Booking a hotel room is fine too."

She pretended to be angry, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "...Boys are just like that."

------

Holy crap, Manami... that's Setsuna! Setsuna working!

Are you guys really white scholars?

Chapter Thirty-Two: A late snowstorm brought down the lamplight.

I want to be a decent person and live a decent life.

—These are the lyrics.

Those two are such despicable people.

Because it's Christmas Eve, and the manuscript and text are almost ready, and the printing process has already begun, we're taking a holiday tonight.

Black Cat's plan for tonight is to play games all night with Sawamura Eriri and also accompany Bridget to watch Meruru, which she really doesn't want to see—while Kousaka Kyosuke and Kasumigaoka Utaha are going out.

They said they wanted to book a hotel room.

That's great, that's great, damn it.

The little black cat... no, it was the big black cat on Christmas Eve. The big black cat watched them walk to the front door, then suddenly remembered something, and its expression changed.

Kyosuke Kosaka and his girlfriend walked side by side to the front door to feel the wind and snow of the night, which were icy cold and a stark contrast to the warmth inside.

He picked up a large umbrella: "The first snow of the year. I remember you said you really liked the snow in Tottori."

"Yes, it snowed a little over there in November, and it was more beautiful and refreshing than the snow in the city. It's a pity you didn't see it."

Kasumigaoka Utaha put on her boots, stomped her feet, stood in front of her boyfriend, raised her hand to straighten his shirt collar, and carefully wrapped his scarf around his neck.

"Hmm, that's great, my boyfriend."

She stepped back two paces, put her hands behind her back, and looked at the boy.

It was springtime, and as we passed each other on the edge of the umbrella, beneath our brows, we exchanged a smile. Was it then that the image of that person already lingered in my mind?

They once discussed a topic about the female characters in the novel, which wasn't the first time the issue of gender differences had been discussed on the radio, but rather a question about security.

A woman's yandere tendencies stem from a lack of security.

She didn't know when it started, but she felt a great sense of security. She could sleep peacefully on her desk and feel at ease when she was deep in thought in the classroom.

When did it start?

The living room lights became much dimmer in the cold wind that came in through the crack in the door, making it seem as if one was standing amidst the dim light. Looking up, one's eyes were like stars, and an indescribable tenderness appeared on one's face.

"Kasumigaoka... no, little poem."

"Ok?"

He subconsciously wanted to repeat something like "The moon is so beautiful tonight," but then suddenly remembered that there was no moon in this awful weather, so he simply said, "You... are so beautiful."

The burning passion in her boyfriend's eyes made her heart flutter, but the girl winked playfully: "It's a pity you're not too handsome..."

"I'm still fine, the groom is so handsome."

A blush slowly rose to Kasumigaoka Utaha's face. She hadn't been particularly sarcastic today, and now, wanting to use a sharp tongue to mask her shyness, she found her mind filled with all sorts of...

Various sexual positions—well, erotic scenes.

It's not something drawn with lines like in a game, but a movie disc that you can buy directly from a bookstore.

Oh dear, the innocent Kasumigaoka knows it all!

Don't be surprised!

The author has a broad knowledge base, having explored various topics and thus dabbling in many fields—no need for applause, it's my duty, thank you.

They walked out the door under Eriri Sawamura's complicated gaze.

Kyosuke Kosaka took a deep breath of the cold air. He had already given his first time to the girl beside him, but in this cycle, this night was of great significance to them.

So, the old Russian poem inevitably popped into my mind.

"I will not regret, I will not call out, and I will not weep."

Golden fallen leaves fill my heart; I am no longer a youth.

It was supposed to be a very heavy mood, but in Kyosuke's hormone-fueled mind, it was twisted into a scene of a first night in the wild, which was really awful.

"that……"

The faint sound made Kyosuke reluctantly turn around.

The black cat looked around for a while, glancing at Kasumigaoka and then at Eriri, before stammering, "Kirino..."

"Kirino?"

"You mentioned before that you were going out to gather material with Kirino tonight..."

Oh.

Yes, that's true.

That day, during the family gathering at home, I had promised my sister that I would go to Shibuya with her on Christmas Eve to gather material.

“I almost forgot about that guy’s request.”

After staring at the black cat for a while, Kousaka Kyosuke pondered for a few seconds, then took out his phone to call his sister.

…………

Even though I can't articulate my dreams for the future, or my unforgettable love, I still have a vague sense of anticipation.

-

Kirino Kousaka received a phone call from her brother on the train.

She glanced at the time and felt a little anxious. She had been delayed at home a bit, and now there was a gap between her current schedule and the agreed time.
