Mom already left, so it looks like I'll be waiting all alone in this parking lot.
Hayase probably got bored, grabbed some lunch, or drove somewhere else to kill time. She'll likely come back at the agreed time.
Too bad I can't message her — I don't even have her contact info.
So I have to wait for two hours, huh? Well, not that bad. I have my phone.
I sat on the waiting shed near the parking lot and started playing games.
After a while, I started feeling thirsty… but of course, I didn't bring any pocket money.
Maybe I should ask Hayase to give me some for emergencies next time.
I spent about an hour fighting off the thirst… until two girls showed up.
"Hey, are you all alone?" said the blonde one.
Is this… what they call a gyaru?
"Uh, yeah. You can see I'm all alone."
The other girl sat down beside me and asked casually:
"You're hot. Do you have a girlfriend?"
"…No? Why do you ask?"
She leaned closer, a playful smile on her lips.
"Then you don't mind hanging out with us, right?"
"I can't. I'm waiting for someone."
"Ehh? Your mom or something?"
"Something like that."
They didn't leave even though I said no. Persistent girls.
"Then all of us can hang out here! We'll wait for your mom together," said the blonde girl.
"Yeah, yeah! I'm Rika, and she's Eiko. We're both incoming second-years at Yokohama Public High School," added the other girl.
"I'm Akira. I just graduated middle school."
The blonde girl, Rika, was way more assertive than her friend.
"So, is there anything you want to do while we wait, Akira-kun?"
"Not really. I'm just really thirsty, and moving around won't help."
"Why don't you buy something?"
"I don't have money. I forgot to ask."
"Okay then. We'll treat you. Rika, get some juice from the vending machine."
"Huh?! Why me? I'm not your servant!"
"C'mon, it's for Akira."
"Fine, fine."
I can definitely smell trouble here. Once I get my juice, I'm leaving. I'll go wait in front of our house. Hayase will pass by anyway.
"Hey, Akira-kun," Eiko said, leaning in closer with a mischievous tone, "we're all alone here…"
"So?"
"I treated you, right? I need a little compensation."
Why am I always the target of perverts?!
"You don't have the courage to do naughty things in public, do you?"
"Oh yeah? So, can I ask you to visit my house? Me and Rika can take turns with you~"
This is bad. Is this what they call a slut?
"…Are you a slut, Eiko-san?"
"I'm not! I'm just curious what it feels like, that's all!"
"You shouldn't waste your first time on someone who doesn't even love you, you know? You should value yourself more. You're beautiful Eiko-san."
She froze. Her expression changed. She looked down and went quiet.
"Uh… Rika?"
"...wuv you."
"Huh?"
"I WUV YOU! PLEASE GO OUT WITH ME!"
I was speechless and surprised. But the moment didn't last—
A sinister hand, filled with terrifying energy that could rival the Demon King himself, touched my shoulder.
"Hello, dear. Did I make you wait?"
Don't look back. You'll die Akira!
"Um, Hayase? It's okay. Shall we go home now?"
"Wait!" Eiko grabbed my hand. "Are you his mom?" she asked Hayase. "I want to date your son!"
Don't drag me with you to hell!
"I'm sorry, but may I know who you are?" Hayase replied. Her voice was calm, but I could feel the bloodlust laced in her words.
But Rika was too dense to notice.
"I'm Rika! I just fell in love with your son!"
"Oh, is that so? And why do you love him? Is he your type?"
"Yeah! He's like a prince! Cool, cute, kind, and super gentlemanly!"
"Oh? But would you still love him… after knowing his dark side?"
"Eh? What, does he have a messy room or something? I don't mind!"
This is bad. Something terrible's about to happen…
"Not about his room. Did you know I bang the boy you like every night?"
HAYASE!!!
I tried to say something to protect my dignity, but she squeezed my shoulder so tight it felt like it would break.
Eiko was surprised, and her face looked shocked.
"Uhm… but isn't he your son?"
"No, he's not. But he does call me Mommy while he begs me to stop licking every nook and cranny of his body~"
"Tha… That's not true! Akira-kun wouldn't do something like that!"
"He would. And he can't date you because…"
Hayase glared sharply at her.
"Akira is mine. Go find your own boy. Don't go stealing someone else's property, okay?"
Her bloodlust was almost visible. Was Hayase… is what they call a Yandere?
Rika bolted from fear.
"I'LL WAIT FOR YOU, AKIRA-KUN! COME BACK WHEN YOU GET TIRED OF THAT WOMAN!"
"…So that girl wouldn't mind even if I banged you every night, huh?" Hayase said.
"Yeah, well, we didn't even do anything…"
"Get in the car. Now."
"Are you angry?"
"No, no, don't worry. We'll just have a small talk back at the house, okay?"
She's definitely angry.
While she was driving, I tried to calm her down.
"Uhm, Hayase? I didn't pick her up or anything, okay? She's the one who came to me."
"And you entertained her?"
"Well, she bought me juice. I was super thirsty… It will be rude to drove her off after I got what I want right?"
"I see. So you're not cheating on me?"
"I'm not! I promise."
We're not even dating yet… but I probably shouldn't say that.
"Okay. I believe you."
"Really?!"
"Yeah… but I'm still jealous. I need to vent this feeling or I'll stay like this until tomorrow. You wouldn't like that, would you?"
"…What do you want to do?"
"Just wait at the house, okay?"
---
After a while, we arrived at her place.
"You tired, dear?" she asked sweetly.
"Not really… why?"
"Well, they say a lady-killer is always tired from entertaining women."
Here we go again.
"I thought we were already okay."
"We are~ but I still feel jealous. I need to let it out, or I'll be stuck in this mood."
"Okay… so what do we do?"
She leaned in and whispered directly into my ear.
"Let's take a bath… together~"
Given the current situation, I couldn't possibly refuse.
