Chapter 2

Thursday, September 2, 2022

Six in the morning, my internal clock wakes me up. Strangely, I feel that my futon is warmer than usual. I turn my head, and encounter something soft and fluffy, pleasant to the touch. I open my eyes slowly and...

"Hn-mm hmm?"

what I just touched is none other than Haruko's chest. I realize it now, but her arms are around my head, using me as a cushion and my right arm is between her legs.

I turn around slowly and see Inaho sleeping peacefully, using my left arm as a pillow.

(What is this? Why are they here? Calm down, there's no reason to stress.)

I sit up and stretch to wake up fully, which wakes up the two intruders and look at me with wide eyes.

"Hello you two, say, can you please come out, I'd like to get ready." I ask them with a threatening smile.

The cheeks completely red, they leave in a hurry taking the time to slide correctly the sliding door and close it.

With a sigh, I get up, put away my futon and put on my workout clothes. I go out and head to the dojo, which is at the back of the garden. As I live in a traditional Japanese house, all the windows are openable, I just have to get out of my room, slide one of the windows, and go out. This is the cycle of my days, I get up, warm up in the dojo and at night before going to bed, I continuously train my magic circuits.

We are at the beginning of Autumn, and it is already cold, but nothing to worry about.

After I finish workout for about 30 minutes, I go back to my room and get dressed in my school clothes. I hear the doorbell, as always, Sakura arrives right on time, although she will be surprised to see my... new roommates.

I slowly move towards the living room, gently slide the door...

As I enter, I see Sakura sitting on a cushion at the table, not very comfortable with the situation. She notices me immediately and wants to say something but Haruko is the first to speak to me.

"Hello Senji, sorry about this morning..."

"Hnn-mm, by the way what were you two doing on my futon?"

Sakura's jaw drops when she hears my words.

"Ah... I'm really sorry about that... I just couldn't wrap my head around the idea of you sleeping alone on the other side of the house. Because of that, I couldn't sleep a wink all night..."

"But Haruko-senpai, Senji has always slept there..." Sakura tries to help me, to no avail.

"But I was worried! I think I was so tired when I came to see you, that I fell asleep on your futon..."

"and I was worried about you Senji-sama, because you must have been lonely!" Inaho approaches me, tears filling her cheeks.

( How innocent...) "Like Sakura said, I've been sleeping there and alone in that house for a long time now, it's going to be okay, right?" I explain to them, wiping her tears with a handkerchief that Sakura gave me.

Haruko looks at me as if embarrassed by something.

Just as the girls seem to be calming down, I hear the front door open violently, and someone running in our direction.

"Ohhh, my Senji!!! so it's true that Minori stuck you with roommates! Plus all girls!! oh no!" Fuji-nee comes in bawling, taking me in her arms.

"Ah... yes, hello Fuji-nee, I guess she told you about it."
