A few months have passed since that day. I was a third-year in high school and studying for the entrance exam. Then Karen became a second-year in high school and the head of the literature club. However, none of the new members came in, so I ended up with just Karen.
ăAre you making progress in your exam studies, Senpai?ă
ăWell, slowly, slowly. Karen, are you making any progress on the club journal?ă
ăOf course I am. I would say that this novel about my first experience with Senpai is the best of the best.ă
ăEh, youâre writing about that time!?ă
ăYes, because for me that time was a really wonderful moment. Wasnât it Senpai?ă
ăNâNo, thatâs⊠It was really good, though.ă
ăFufu, thatâs right. Well, I really donât intend to put that in the club magazine.ă
ăWâWhat the hell⊠You scared the hell out of me.ă
ăSurprised Senpai is really cute. Oh, yeah, letâs go on another trip somewhere after the exams are over.ă
ăâŠRight.ă
After the hot spring trip, Mai never appeared in front of us again. Rumor has it that she is still hospitalized, but her former brightness has completely disappeared.
And although Natsuki was discharged from the hospital, the shock of having his thing cut off was too much for him, and he dropped out without ever going to school after being discharged. And now heâs a shut-in at home. To be honest, I canât help but think, he deserved it.
As for the incident, somehow it was never revealed that Karen was the culprit. I didnât quite understand how they didnât find out, but I still havenât asked that because I didnât think it was necessary to ask.
ăDo you think back on the incident?ă
ăâŠWell, yeah. I have to admit that I have a fear that Karen will be caught.ă
ăYou donât need to worry about that. But if I were caught, would Senpai wait for me to come out?ă
ăOf course. Iâve already decided to stay with Karen forever.ă
ăIâm glad you said that. Gyuuâ Iâll give you a hug.ă
ăOwaah!?ă
Although I was taken aback by Karenâs hug, I hugged her back as well. Ahh, I still feel at home when I do this. For me, Karenâs presence is really indispensable.
ăDonât cheat on your wife in college.ă
ăI wouldnât do that, not with Karen around.ă
ăFufuh, thatâs about right. Besides, if I cheat on you, I might have to ask you to hurt me a little.ă
ăThat sounds too convincing and scaryâŠă
ăBut I know my Senpai wonât do that. Letâs stay together from now on.ă
ăâŠYeah.ă
And we hugged and kissed each other. A kiss with a vow that we will always be together.
