    "Please stop!"

    I grabbed both of Yui's shoulders and pushed her away

    "It's okay. You won't get caught here. The rain is too loud for those cameras to pick up any sound from here."

    Yui brushes my arm away and hugs me. She stroked my chest through my jersey.

    "It's not just men. Women are scum, too. People become scum if they are not punished. Yoshikawa-kun, have you ever jaywalked? It's the same as that. So, you should be honest."

    Yui's finger is placed on my cheek. From there, it drifted quickly down and stroked my neck.

    "That may be so, but I have no intention of betraying Yukiho!"

    I grabbed both of Yui's shoulders again and separated myself from her. I wanted to throw her down if I could.

    But I can't do that.

    The reason is that the other person is Yui Banjo, an idol, and actress who is a senior in the office. I was not allowed to make even the slightest scratch on her face or even on the back of her hand. She had to be handled with more care than a piece of glass.

    Yui sighed. Her breath gently caressed my face.

    "...I'm stepping away now, but can you please listen to me and not run away?"

    "I'm not running away. Or rather, I have nowhere to run."

    "That's true too."

    Yui steps back. Then she sat down beside me and told me to sit down too.

    It seemed like a hassle to say no, so I obeyed obediently.

    "You know that type of woman they call a "crusher"? The type of woman who messes up other people's relationships."

    That's exactly what you are, I thought, and answered "Yes."

    "I'm not like that."

    "Eh, you're not?"

    I couldn't help but let my true feelings spill out. I hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry."

    "It's true that I'm the type of person who finds pleasure in taking other people's men, just like a crusher. But you see, I don't want to go beyond that."

    "Beyond what?"

    "Crushers like to feel superior by showing the woman they've stolen from, that they've taken your man. It's called the desire for dominance. That's what they want to satisfy. But I'm different. I'm satisfied with myself and that's it. That's a big difference. Do you understand?"

    "No, not really..."

    "In other words, I'm a woman of convenience. For example, even if I did something lewd with Yoshikawa-kun here, I wouldn't want anything to happen after that. I won't tell Takamine or anyone else about it, and I won't go after Yoshikawa again. If I did that, I wouldn't be able to make it in the entertainment industry."

    She is indeed a woman of convenience, I thought.

    Yui's story is not over yet.

    "Do you know an actor named Seimei Mutou who got married this year?"

    That's the guy who married the actress, Furuki-san, right?"

    "Yes, he's known for being crazy about Furuki-san and paying no attention to anyone else, but he crossed the line with me. That's the kind of relationship we have."
