49: Where's Kirari

"Where's Kirari? She wouldn't have stood for that." You grumbled as you sat down on the couch.

"Dealing with that blonde-haired nuisance." Runa mumbled back, watching the intense game before her. "Shh, game's intense."

You folded your arms and crossed your legs, wiping at your eyes. It was time to watch the stupid game. 

"There's no way you could trick someone with such a stupid cheat." Yumeko's words rang out.

Oh. You thought to yourself. The reversing of the screens. Midari is a pretty good cheater, but Yumeko obviously is better.

"Please don't insult me, okay?" She asked sweetly, causing your lips to twitch upward just slightly. Why did you bother with boys? You had everything you wanted in a person right in Yumeko right now. Intelligent, fun, beautiful: what more could one want? "Ryota's actions were just what I predicted."

Midari looked stunned. She looked more than stunned. She looked... turned on.

"You lose." The words fell out of the modified girl's mouth just as easily as her tongue did. Slowly, she flipped the cards over, practically drooling in ecstasy . "I can't believe it! I can't believe a girl like you appeared before me!"

Really, she appeared before me. You pouted. And I should get first taste.

"I can't take it anymore. It's your turn. Show your cards, Yumeko! I've been looking so long... for the greatest woman imaginable, one like the president! Like the princess! Control me! Please! Like that boy you both keep with you! Let me join you!" Midari lost control and began to crawl onto the table, while Yumeko kept a calm face. You slowly shook your head. Not only did she inadvertently give away your secret, but she was acting out of line as she writhed on the table. "I wanted a girl like you to kill me. I'll entrust you with everything. Rule over me! Rule over everything I have! Show your hand and let me die!"

"You! It has to be you!" Midari screeched, as Yumeko kept a somber face and finally began to flip her cards. "Anything else is just masturbation!"

This is masturbation. You rolled your eyes at the pathetic display. 

"You're the only way I can feel the joy I felt on that day. Do it!"

"This is just what I expected." Yumeko deadpanned. "I knew instantly that you were trying to lose. Otherwise, why would you agree to let Ryota be the dealer? You didn't have any guarantee that we didn't have a sign."

"No, wait!" Midari picked herself off the table as you cracked a smile.

Oh, what a good girl. You thought to yourself. I'm glad she didn't just let Midari have her way with her.

"The only reason you pulled the trigger without hesitation during the first game was that you didn't care if you were in danger. Well, that's fine, though. But this is just terrible." Yumeko's face turned rapidly into disgust as she flipped over her second to last card. Midari was fully on the table, on her knees with an even more pitiful look on her face.

"Wait! Hey! Don't flip over another card!" She begged.

"This particular cheat was made to be found out. This wave card," Yumeko held the second to last card in her hand. "What if there was another wave on it? You couldn't tell if it just happened to be upside-down. You can't have done all this just to win the game. So, why?"
