Great Day to Be Alive! The Daughter Spoiled by the President Wants Me to Marry Her ~ 3LDK Cohabitation Life With a Perfect Beautiful Girl

e is more appropriate for my age; it’s more neat and clean… The black one is still sexier, isn’t it? It’s more mature.”

“Y-You can wear whichever you like, can’t you?”

“Like with the clothes earlier, the two are really competing for me.
So I wanted the final decision based on the preferences of Haruyuki-kun, who is the only person to whom I can show this.”

I was embarrassed again by the ‘only’ part, but I put that aside.

Thinking of what I liked, my gaze was naturally drawn to the black one.

If Tojo-san was wearing this kind of underwear― I started to have such fantasies, and my face started getting hot.

Let’s just say ‘light blue’ here.

That way, I could deny that I was looking at Tojo-san that way a bit.
That should be enough.

―But.

“The black one… is… more to my liking.”

“… Fufu, I’m very pleased to hear your honest opinion.
I’ll get you this one then, shall I?”

‘Well… I guess I’ll wait outside.’

“Yes, I’m sorry to have kept you this long.
Please have a little rest.”

Tojo-san, sensing that I was starting to get mentally exhausted, was willing to let me go with an open mind.

I’m grateful. 

I left the shop as it was and leaned against the wall outside so as not to disturb other passers-by.

(I was unexpectedly honest…)

I can only assume that I had lost my ability to make rational decisions.

For someone like me, who had no experience with women at all, such stimulation was too strong.

Next time, I’ll have to restrain myself.

If I don’t do so, it’ll get tiring, and it will interfere with my high school life.

“… hm?”

At that moment, I felt the same gaze again I felt one day, and I looked up.

I looked around and met eyes with a familiar face.

(Ah, it’s just Hino-san, huh?)

Hino-san, who was a long way away, noticed that I was looking at her and bowed lightly.

I bowed lightly in the same way and kept my gaze averted.

The fact that she is following us at a distance so as not to make us aware of her should mean that I shouldn’t try to communicate with her.

It is inherently rude behaviour, but ignoring her should be the right thing to do just now.

―But.

(― it’s not Hino-san.)

Hino-san noticed my gaze and made eye contact.

So the gaze I felt before was not hers.

Was it my imagination after all?

I didn’t feel any stares right now, and it’s highly possible that she was just suspicious because I was near the lingerie section.

That’s a problem.
But well, let’s leave it at that.

I have a bit of a bad feeling about this.

This is exactly like the day my parents had their―

“… what the h**l am I even thinking?”

Shaking my head, I shake off the unpleasant thoughts too.

The psychological aftereffects of that accident were holding me back.

I worry about everything, and I can’t shake the bad feeling.

It has been a bad habit I need to cure.

“Fuu… okay.”

I adjusted my breathing, which had been disturbed for some time, and looked up.

And then, after confirming Tojo-san’s figure walking towards me from inside the shop, I felt a sense of temporary relief.
