*The lines.

I’m home, Mom.

I’m going to give Kotaro-kun a little lecture now, so don’t come into my room, okay?

Hee!? Hamburgers for dinner tonight!?

Yay, I did it~♪ I really have to give Kotaro-kun a lecture before dinner. Will he get into a good mood when his stomach is full? I’m not a child forever, you know.

Come on, Kotaro-kun, let’s go, okay? Don’t get all flirty just because Mom is beautiful, okay? You’re so out of control…, don’t look so full of yourself, too. I’ll give you Dad, but don’t rob me Kotaro-kun!

You know, mom is trying to play a trick on Kotaro-kun,…. and you’re you, too? Why are you smiling? Do you think it’s cute that my cheeks are puffed up like a blowfish? I’m not happy with your compliments like that!

But you can compliment me a little more, can’t you?

Then I can lecture you a little less.

…. Well, that’s a bit of an exaggeration.

I don’t think I’m that pretty and beautiful like an angel, shining so brightly that just looking at me makes people happy. I think I’m, at best, just as pretty and beautiful as an angel that makes you happy just by looking at me.

Eh? I didn’t say that, and I’m not a “kenson” at all?

I wonder what a kenson is …… Oh, maybe you’re trying to confuse me with a difficult word. I won’t let you! I’m still in a bad mood like a monkey who’s been deprived of his banana!

Come on, sit up straight!

Oh, but on the floor it hurts your knees, so on the bed is fine. I’m sure it won’t hurt your knees either, since Mom and Dad insisted on buying me this very expensive bed. They love me so much, they will spoil me if I beg them a little.

But Kotaro-kun is mean, isn’t he? I’m the type of person who thrives on being spoiled, you know? If I am neglected, scolded, or treated coldly, I will die of loneliness like a rabbit, right? Would you be okay if I died? Ah I shouldn’t say I’m going to die, even if it’s in a joking manner. It’s my body that everyone takes care of, so I should take care of it too… It’s not the same thing!

Don’t try to change the subject again!

……Eh ? Kotaro didn’t say anything? Am I going off on my own? Yes, I’m a very bad girl right now. So, Kotaro-kun, you have to be a good boy until I become a good girl.

I’m a very easy girl, if I may say so myself. I’m just a simple girl who is satisfied if you don’t talk to any other girl but me, look only at me, and love only me. …… Eh?　Not too easy? A little annoying? But that part is cute too!

…… Hmm, hmm?

Kotaro-kun, you’re getting pretty good at giving compliments.

You do it quite well. What you just said surprised me a little… I’m aware of it myself, you know? I’m a bit of a hefty girl like my mom, aren’t I? You know, my mom sulks when my dad is with other women, and we’re alike, aren’t we?

I don’t want to be a troublesome girl, but since Kotaro-kun became my friend, I can’t stop my feelings.

I want you to be more affectionate with me.

It’s not enough. No, I’m never satisfied. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve thought, “I wish Kotaro-kun lived in the same house with me.”

I can’t stand to see you flirting with another girl, even if it’s just an act. … Hey, Kotaro-kun? I don’t know what I should do.

I’m not trying to cause you any trouble.

I understand that you have special feelings for me, Kotaro-kun.

I also understand that you are not interested in other girls. But I still can’t get enough of you.

So, please do me a favor.

Kotaro-kun…… would you please stroke my head?
