Happy New Year. I look forward to your continued patronage.
One day in August, I was invited to the home of my girlfriend, Akaeda Rusia.
『Okaya, I have something I want to show you. Would you come over…?』 Her tone was unnervingly serious. Was it a new manuscript?
Or maybe it was a revised version of Kimitabi?
Either way, it was a summons from my earnest girlfriend.
It had to be for some serious discussion.
One of such magnitude that it couldn’t happen outside. “I’ll come.”
I stood before the imposing gate of the Akaeda residence.
I rang the doorbell, and a massive man appeared with a groan…
Sunglasses, a black outfit, and a body so muscular it was obvious even through his clothes.
“Yo yo, Okaya-san, hello there, hello there.”
“Um… is it okay to call you Saburo-kun?”
“Right, right! You often mistake me for my older brother… but it’s Sanjiro, not Jirotae-nii-chan!”
I got acquainted with Sanjiro-kun in the summer, when we all went on a group trip to Karuizawa and he was super helpful. “What brings you here today?”
“Rushia… I was summoned by Ruko-san.”
“Aha-ha! I see, I see… So you’ve finally made up your mind to do it, huh!”
Sanjiro-kun gave a sly grin and nodded. Wishing him what kind of resolve?
“Come on, right this way! The young mistress is waiting for you~!”
Guided by Sanjiro-kun, I entered the mansion.
Past a long corridor and an exquisite garden, we were led to a room in the back. I had been here before. It was one of Rushia’s rooms.
Apparently, she has several rooms. “Okaya” “What?” “This place… is it soundproof!”
Sanjiro-kun gave a solid thumbs up. “Haa…”
“Go ahead and use the space however you like!”
Beaming with enthusiasm, Sanjiro-kun left.
Is it because of the soundproofing, or what is it…? “Rushia. I’m here.” 『Oh my master. Please come in.』 I opened the fusuma sliding door. And there was…
“Welcome back to your servant~★ My Master~★” Slat!
I closed the fusuma and took a deep breath.
…It felt like something impossible was standing right in front of me.
“Is she tired or something…? Rushia, wearing cat ears and a flirty maid outfit…” No, that’s not possible. That old-fashioned young lady!
Cat ears? A maid outfit? And it was pretty provocative… Unbelievable. “Rushia. It’s me. Coming in.” 『Yes. Please come in.』 I opened the fusuma…
“Welcome home to your servant~★ My Big Brother~★”
I closed my eyes… looked up at the sky, and let out a sigh. …It’s Rushia, isn’t it. Yeah. It’s Rushia.
And she’s wearing the exact same outfit I saw just now.
Rushia in a mini-skirt maid outfit, complete with cat ears.
“Nyan-nyan? Do you prefer calling me ‘Master’ after all, nyan~?”
”…No, it’s not like that at all…”
“Is Master to your taste, nya?” “No, I don’t care about that at all…” “Then, ‘Master’ it is~☆” What the hell is going on?
Rushia isn’t the type to use weird speech tics like this.
She wouldn’t wear a maid outfit… Is this a look-alike of Rushia?
But I thought I heard she was an only child…
“Welcome home, Master. Please sit down, nya~♡” “Ah, yeah…” I don’t get it. What is this? Am I being tested?
Is he observing how I handle a situation, from his perspective as an editor?
I… I don’t know… I can’t figure it out.
The room had undergone quite a transformation. It used to have a purely traditional Japanese aesthetic.
But now the interior is fancy. More European-style, if anything.
I suppose you could say it has an anime-esque vibe.
In any case, it’s worlds apart from the Japanese-style room it used to be.
Inside were a king-sized bed and a leather-upholstered sofa. I was made to sit on the sofa.
“Master, are you hungry, nya? Or would you like a drink, nya?” “Oh, no, thank you…”
“Or maybe… me? Watashi♡ is it, nya~♡”
…How seriously is she actually acting this out?
Did she hit her head or something…?
Besides, there’s no way Lucia would act like that before me…
“Do you desire me, nya?”
“A drink! Please, just a drink…” “Yes ma’am, nya~♡” Lucia heads out of the room. Thud…! “Nya!” Lucia collapses with a clatter. “Uh, hey, are you okay…?”
Lucia ends up in a pose that thrusts her butt right toward me. …Her underwear was completely visible.
“I messed up, nya~★ Sorry for being so clumsy, nya~★” “Ah, ah…”
“Nya! My panties are showing. Nuh-uh~. How perverted the Master is~♡” ”………”
“Coming to make some coffee, nya~♡” The sliding door slams shut with a sharp sound. I sat there alone, holding my head in my hands. I don’t get it.
What actually happened to Lucia today…? Is she just joking around?
No, I’m not one to make jokes about that sort of thing… What is it? What’s wrong?
Did you hit your head? Or maybe it’s just a lookalike for Rushia?
Then again, the idea of two albino beauties existing at once seems impossible… “Sorry to keep you waiting, nya~♡” The smiling Rushia returns. …Right, she’s smiling. She used to mostly smile softly.
She had never turned that kind of open-mouthed, bright grin toward me before.
It was fresh… and adorable.
“Here’s your coffee, nya♡” “Ah, thank you…”
…Even so, what happened to cause this?
Is it possible for someone to change one hundred and eighty degrees like this? Rushia sits down next to me.
“Do you want any sugar or milk, nya?” “I’ll just have some milk, then.” “Understood★” Rushia takes a seat beside me.
Pour the milk potion into the coffee and stir it with a spoon.
She turns her red eyes toward me, leaning in curiously as she spins the spoon around and around. “What are you doing…?” “It’s an option, nya~♡” “O-Option…?”
“Yes, nya! It’s a maidservant option where I stir the coffee while maintaining eye contact with you, nya★”
…You’re not misinterpreting the word “maid,” are you, Rushia?
It’s a maid from a maid café… that’s what she is…
But being looked into by those large, wide eyes at such close range makes it feel like I might get sucked in. She really is beautiful…
“Here you go, all done nya~ ♡ Nyaaah! My hand slipped nyaa-!” Splash! “It’s hot! …Isn’t it?” It wasn’t that hot.
If anything, it was cold… Ah, right, it was iced coffee.
“Nya-nyah! I’m so sorry nya! Let me wipe it up right away…”
Grabbing a cloth, she tried to wipe down my pants… or rather, the area around my crotch.
“It’s fine. It’s all good. I’ll clean it up myself.” “Yes… is that so nya?” Rushia looked incredibly disappointed.
When she suddenly takes on such a humble attitude… it catches me off guard.
“I’m sorry nyaa… Rushia is a bad cat nyaa.”
Rushia stood up and headed over to the bed.
Once she was up on the mattress, she started shrugging off her maid uniform with a rustling sound. “W-What? Wh-What?”
Before I could stop her, Lushia, complete with her cat ears and tail… stripped herself naked.
Her figure lacked significant curves, but her skin was as white as snow.
And the absolute lack of hair in her private area.
Facing me with her pristine, innocent nudity, Lushia’s face bright red, got on all fours on the bed and turned her rear end toward me.
“Please… teach me what it means to have fun… nya…”
Lushia shook her hips seductively back and forth.
“Fill a kitten with babies…”
I moved to Lushia’s side.
“Stop making such an embarrassing gesture.”
I draped the top over her shoulders.
Lushia’s face fell into a dumbfounded expression.
“Eh? M-Master… did I do something wrong?” “Yes. Everything was wrong.”
But… Torshiya sat up, directing her innocent eyes at me.
“You must want that kind of service from a lewd cat-eared maid, yes? Something explicitly suggestive?”
…Apparently, she truly believed it. “What was the source of this information?” “An eroge!” “Wait, an eroge…” “Yes!”
…I see. This blatant acting.
Did she study by playing eroge?
“Also, Saburo said this was perfect… Was it not good enough? Wasn’t it cute?” Torshiya looked up at me with anxiety in her eyes.
“No, it was cute. I truly thought so without holding back.” ”! Oh! Really!”
“Just… the shift in mood was a bit too extreme, and I couldn’t keep up.” “Th-that’s how it is…”
Torshiya drooped her shoulders, dejectedly. I pulled her into a hug. “Ah~”
“But really, you were adorable. Honestly… my head spun a little.”
“It-Is that so… Good job then…” I held her small, slender frame.
Torshiya hugged me back gently, a quiet kyu sound of her arms closing around me.
This is just the right amount. For me, at least. “Huh… I feel like someone’s staring.”
“Lucky coincidence, Okaya. Me too.” We spun around.
The sliding door was slightly ajar, and a handheld video camera was poking out from behind it.
“Sa-ron-o-o-o-o-o-o!”
Rushia stood up, her face turning bright red.
“Oh, Miss! Please, ignore us! This is work! Lord Takahara asked us to record footage of your progress! Whooops!”
Rushia threw a pillow with all her might while wearing an angry expression.
…Anyway, I need to hear what happened and understand the situation. 【★Notice】 I wrote a new short story!
“The Night My Boyfriend Broke Up With Me Because ‘Otaku Are Creepy,’ I Ended Up Dating a Girl Who Is Nice to Otaku~It’s Too Late to Realize She Was Actually a Great Catch Now, Since the Ex-Girl Who Became a Beautiful Pure-Beauty Type with Shared Hobbies Is Very Lovable” 【URL】
