It’s almost the end of the summer holidays.

We finished the summer festival and went to the swimming pool… it really was a fulfilling long holiday, no matter how many times I think it over.

To tell the truth, I thought it would be romantic if we could go to the beach as well as the pool, but I guess that’s not an option.

“… I wonder who that person was, seriously..”

There is a face that I always remember when I suddenly think of her.

That unnamed woman, the one who spoke as if she knew about the hypnosis app.

After my encounter with that person, I did a lot of research again.

“…Nothing came.”

Yes, the results were not particularly encouraging.

The modern internet is a great source of information if you want to find out if something is true or false, but there was no mention of hypnosis apps in the real world.

No matter where I looked, hypnosis apps are basically only found in erotic manga and erotic anime, in other words, in two-dimensional worlds, and I couldn’t find any posts about such things.

“I don’t get it, seriously…”

Although there are many things that concern me about that woman, in the end I have never met her since then, so the truth remains unknown.

However… if the impression I had about that woman is true, I wonder what kind of terrible things she went through.

“It’s possible that it’s just a delusion, but… that look in his eyes isn’t a lie”

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve spent time with Mari and the others, but for some reason I was convinced that people with eyes like that don’t tell lies.

Compared to the girls I’ve met, she’s not my favorite and she’s more like an enemy… but still, for some reason, I had a gut feeling that she was definitely not lying.

“… she is not lying. For some reason, I felt the same way about that part about that person as I did about Mari and the others… even though they were completely different.”

That person was definitely hostile towards me.

And yet, what is this indescribable feeling that I can only believe her when she is not lying?

It’s not that I like her or anything, but… No, I can’t even put it into words myself.

“Well, there’s no point in worrying about it.”

Let’s think about something else and reset for once.

I walk to the living room, and head back to my room with an ice cream in my hand, but on the way there, my eyes meet my sister as she comes out of the bathroom.

“…Sis?”

At that moment, Sis looked like she was worried about something, and I tilted my head.

“…Oh Kai?”

Sis notices me, but she just goes back to her room in a daze.

I thought it was unusual for her to be so absorbed in her thoughts. But after all, because of having seen people holding on to various issues through the hypnosis app, I was inexplicably concerned about my sister’s state of mind.

I followed my sister into the room and went inside, too.

“What?”

“No…I was just wondering if something was wrong.”

“…Ah~”

There was a previous case that bothered my sister’s head in case… and I tried to listen to her story in the hypnotised state, but she told me without hiding it.

“… I wonder if I can get through to you by Matsufusa.”

“Matsufusa-san?”

What’s wrong with the big-breasted sister in red mesh?

When I asked her for more details, she told me that the Matsufusa-san had been acting strangely lately.

She seems to be worried about something, but she just says not to worry and won’t tell, and my sister says she can’t dig deeper into it if she doesn’t want to.

“There’s a possibility that she’s really okay… but the fact that she’s so quiet for such a bundle of energy. I’m a little concerned about it, but I think I’ll wait and see.”

“…I see.”

On the day of the festival, I saw Matsufusa-san again, and it’s true that I felt a strange sensation from her at that time.

It was something like deja vu… if I had to say it, it was something similar to the thing I felt from Mari and the others.

“…..”

“Kai? What’s wrong?”

“No… it’s just that I’m a bit concerned.”

“Haha, maybe you like Matsufusa? Well, that girl also said you were cute when she saw you. And she also said you seemed kind at the festival.”

“Heh…”

It’s still embarrassing to have good things said about you when you’re not around.

I’ve never talked to Matsufusa-san, so it was very new for me to hear from my sister like this, so I ended up talking to her.

“She looks like that and has a boyish personality, or rather, she’s a really energetic girl. But one thing I don’t understand is that she looked at you and said she was jealous of you.”

“Why?”

“I don’t know, she has a younger brother the same age as you.”

“Hmmm…”

When I heard that we were same age, I thought it was impossible, but there is no Matsufusa in our high school, so I wondered if he is in another high school.

Well, I’m a little bit interested in Matsufusa-san. I don’t care about her brother…

I’m interested in her in many naughty ways, but I’m also concerned in a different way that my sister is so worried about her.

“…I suppose it’s no use me worrying about it now…”

I muttered to myself as I returned to my room.

After that, when I was zoning out for a while, I received a message from Akira, suggesting that I should invite Shogo over for yakiniku.

The place was Akira’s house, so I replied that I would head there immediately and left the house.

“Yakiniku at someone’s house is nice” (Notes: Barbecue)

The yakiniku you eat at a restaurant is delicious, but the yakiniku you eat with friends is the best.

I didn’t want to go empty-handed, so I told my mother and headed to Akira’s house with some vegetables such as green peppers and onions.

While I was on my way, I saw an unusual combination of two people.

“…Eh? Why?”

Walking in front of me were Mari and Aika.

They should have met for the first time at the swimming pool, but what kind of situation is it that they are walking together like this?

I was staring at them, so naturally they noticed me.

“Ah, Kai-kun!”

They both ran over to us in their cute smile.

“Hey you two… when did you two get close?”

“Ah, are you curious?”

“Fufu, well, let me explain.”

Then they talked to me and it was nothing. They both just happened to meet each other on the street.

They got talking because they had a mutual acquaintance in me and had met each other once.

“So you’ve been together since lunch?”

“Yes~. We went to karaoke and stuff together.”

“Yes. It was really fun, Mari-san.”

“No, it was my pleasure too, Aika.”

They seem to have become so close that they call each other by name.

This time, they promised to play together with Fiana as well, and it seems like they will soon become friends with Emu and Saika as well.

(…what?)

I felt something click and claw at my hand… if I had to say it, for a moment, I had a hallucination that I was being chained up.

I shook my head and wondered if it was because I was tired, and Mari asked me this.

“Are you going somewhere from now on, Kai-kun?”

“Yeah. I’m going to Akira’s house for yakiniku.”

“Heh, yakiniku! That’s nice ❤.”

“Yakiniku with friends… right. I’ve done it with Fiana, but it’s something I’ve always wanted to do.”

“in that case–”

I swallowed my words as I was about to invite him to join us both.

I am the one who was invited by Akira, so I don’t have the right to decide, and Mari is not the only one, but Aika is in a different school and has her own trauma to men.

(Whenever I try to get carried away, I immediately try to say something like this. It’s a bad habit of mine.)

I have to be careful what I say so as not to hurt them.

I carved that deeply in my heart and headed to Akira’s house right after that.

“Hello Mukai-kun, thanks for today❤”

“Nice to meet you. My name is Sasaki. Thank you for today.”

“…”

Huh? How did this happen?

I was bewildered as I watched my two friends who were looking at the two beautiful girls deliriously.
