I Refuse To Become Scumbag In Tokyo-Novel

Chapter 199 - They're So Selfish

Even though Saki's speed might be faster than most girls', it was very easy for him to catch her.

Shishio quickly caught Saki and hugged her directly. "Why did you run so suddenly?" He was quite helpless since he didn't expect that she would drop a nuclear bomb directly in front of both Shiina and Ritsu. He wanted to do it slowly, gently, but surely, but the situation had always been out of control, and he felt that he jumped from one cliff to another, which made him speechless.

Shishio might have realized it before but didn't expect that love could be so troublesome and difficult at the same time. However, it was normal, considering he sought a harem ending, not a single partner, so this kind of hard work at the beginning was something necessary, and he needed to do this.

Shishio carried Saki directly in his arms so she wouldn't run away. "Can you talk now?"

Saki, who was in his arms, also didn't fight back and nodded. "Um." Her eyes were red, and her expression clearly showed that her mood wasn't good at this moment.

Shishio didn't care about the surrounding area or the people who saw him carrying Saki in his arms. He did this yesterday, and doing it for the second time was no different for him. "So, can you tell me why you did that?"

Saki didn't answer Shishio's question first and asked, "Shishio, are you angry?"

"No." Shishio shook his head and said, "But I'm confused." He wasn't sure why Saki would suddenly kiss him without hesitation, but he had to admit that it was a great help for him since he knew that based on the development that might happen before, he was sure that he needed to express his feelings toward Shiina.

If Shishio was single, then it might be quite easy for him, but he had two girlfriends, after all, and considering Shiina's situation, he wasn't sure what she would do if he rejected her. It might sound quite surprising, but he really planned to reject Shiina. It wasn't because she was unattractive or he didn't have a feeling toward her, but he just couldn't understand Shiina's feeling toward him. Was it love? Was it something else? He wanted her to understand those feelings first before they could step into the next relationship.

In truth, there was no need for him to think such a complicated matter, and as a man, it would be great to have a beautiful girl to like him. Still, when it came to Shiina, he wanted to take this matter seriously. After all, he knew Shiina's special condition.

'Is it good to treat her specially?' Shishio started to wonder whether it was good or not to treat Shiina with special care, and wasn't it better to treat her like how to treat other girls? But then he shook his head and felt that the way his mindset was quite wrong right now, the right mindset that he should have was that every girl in this world was special, so he needed to treat all of them with extra care, right?

That also included his girlfriend, Saki, who was in his arms right now. With her status as his girlfriend, of course, he needed to care for her more than both Shiina and Ritsu, who weren't his girlfriends. He needed to get his priorities first, or else all his ships would capsize.

"I'm your girlfriend, right?" Saki asked.

"No," Shishio said.

"....." Saki looked at Shishio with a dumbfounded expression.

"You haven't agreed to my confession yet. So you're not my girlfriend, right?" Shishio said with a smile.

Saki might have said, "I love you," but she hadn't agreed to his confession, after all.

"..." Saki.

"Or have you made up your mind to accept my confession now?" Shishio asked.

Saki looked at Shishio with blush and nodded. "Um."

When Saki thought about their conversation before, she couldn't help but feel a bit regretful. She could be his first girlfriend, but she gave that chance to Nana, which made her slightly depressed, but now, she didn't hesitate anymore.

"So we don't need to go on a date on Sunday?" Shishio asked.

"No!!!" Saki quickly said, but then she realized something. She looked at his smile and became annoyed. "Are you teasing me?"

"Well, you're just too cute. I can't help but tease you," Shishio said with a smile.

Saki's face was burning red at that moment. "Y - You're going to tease me from now on?"

"Of course, such a cute girl like you, only I can be the one who can tease you from now on, alright?" Shishio said.

"..."

Saki was wondering how this guy could make her heart race several times in a day, especially his domineering tone that claimed that she would be only his from now on. If she wasn't embarrassed, she might kiss him directly. Still, she tried to calm down by taking a deep breath and said, "An - Anyway, let me walk by myself first, and let's talk about your date with Shiina."

Shishio nodded and let go of Saki from his arms before he held her hand gently. "I want to tell you this on the break before, but a lot of things happened that I forgot about." His thoughts were preoccupied with his conversation with Tokugawa before, and even though he remembered about his date with Shiina, there wasn't enough time to talk about this matter to both Saki and Nana, considering they had asked him a lot of questions before.

Saki nodded and asked, "So you want them to become your girlfriends too?"

"Yes." Shishio nodded and didn't hide his intention.

Saki looked at Shishio for a bit and let out a sigh. She knew that this guy wouldn't lie, but this made this matter became even more complicated. "So, can you handle the four of us, and are you also going to steal Usa's crush?" Even though she knew that Shishio's body was very powerful, she still asked this question anyway, and she also wondered whether Shishio would also steal Usa's crush. She wasn't blind, or rather, Usa was like an open book, and she could see that Usa had fallen for Ritsu, but if Shishio decided to chase after Ritsu, then Usa's chance to get Ritsu was zero, she didn't have doubt about it.

"Only Mashiro," Shishio said. As for Ritsu, he needed to slow down a bit since there were a lot of people that he needed to take care of for now.

"Oh?" Saki nodded, and as for Ritsu, she didn't care much.

"Don't you feel angry?" Shishio asked while looking at Saki curiously.

"Oh, I'm very angry, and I want to beat you up now," Saki said while clenching her fist.

"....." Shishio.

"But I'm surprised since I have a feeling that you might have eaten every girl that you know," Saki said.

"....." Shishio.

"Still, you have asked me the reason why I have done that before, right?" Saki said.

Shishio nodded, but somehow he knew the reason why Saki did her action before. Having many girls, if his mind wasn't bright and his emotional intelligence wasn't high, then even if it was possible to create a harem in the future, it might not be possible to maintain it forever.

"You think that they're selfish?" Shishio asked.

"Um." Saki nodded and said, "They're not your girlfriends, but they act like one. Sorry, I just don't like it..." It was the reason why she said those words and kissed Shishio directly before. Even though she knew that either Shiina or Ritsu, or both of them might become Shishio's girlfriend in the future, they weren't one now, but they acted like they were one and from their conversation before. "And if I don't do something, you might be forced to confess there directly, right?"

"...." Shishio looked at Saki and couldn't help but caress her hair gently. "I'm glad that I confessed to you."

Saki somehow was quite proud at this moment and said, "See? You should be grateful that I have accepted your confession now."

"Oh, you're so cheeky now?" Shishio said with a speechless expression.

Saki only laughed and asked, "Say, I have heard from Nana that you had carried her all the way from school to her home yesterday?"

"Yes." Shishio nodded and asked, "You want me to do that?"

"Weren't you tired?" Saki asked curiously.

"No, you should know the power on my body, right?" Shishio said with a meaningful smile.

Saki wasn't sure why, but she felt that there was a lot of meaning under this smile that made her blush. "Anyway, don't hide it anymore. Besides your date on Saturday with Mashiro, do you have other plans with other girls?" She knew that there were still a lot of girls that had a close relationship with him. She also felt that his relationship with Yukinoshita wasn't as simple as something like a cat lover. Rather, even if their relationship was simple now, she felt that their relationship was going to be deeper in the future.

"I'll go to Miu-senpai's house tonight," Shishio said.

"I see." Saki nodded and held his hand tighter. She might have prepared for this, but it still hurts somehow. "That's all?"

"Tomorrow, I need to meet my friend," Shishio said.

"Girl?" Saki asked.

"Girl." Shishio nodded.

"What kind of friend?" Saki asked.

When being asked this question, Shishio wasn't sure how to answer. After all, his relationship with Rui was pretty complicated. Both of them lost their first time to each other, and even though he didn't mind telling this matter to Saki, he knew that it would cause a lot of trouble to Rui, and they had promised to not tell anyone about what they had done after all. "I met her on the first day I arrived in Tokyo. We met at the convenience store then talked together, and by chance, we met each other last night, and she asked for my help."

"What kind of help?" Saki asked.

"I'm not sure, but I owe her something," Shishio said simply.

"Hmm...." Saki nodded and didn't say much, but one thing for sure, she knew that his relationship with this girl was quite special, but she decided to respect his decision for now since she thought that he might have promised to not tell anyone or something.

They continued to talk while talking to each other before they arrived in front of Saki's house.

"Well, see you tomorrow," Saki said and reluctantly parted from him.

"Wait, Saki, you forgot something," Shishio quickly said.

"What?" Saki turned, but her eyes were wide open at this moment since she was kissed!

When she turned her head, Shishio kissed Saki's lips directly before he parted his lips. He looked at her with a smile and said, "This is my payback from before. See you tomorrow, Saki." Leaving those words, he left.

"..." Saki couldn't utter any words at that moment, but her face was burning, and there was smoke that started to emit from her head.

---

After leaving Saki, Shishio returned to Sakurasou, and when he entered, Roberta greeted him.

"Roberta, how are Kawai-senpai and Mashiro?" Shishio asked.

"They went to their room immediately before," Roberta said calmly and didn't question whether there was a problem between Shishio, Ritsu, and Mashiro.

"I see..." Shishio nodded and said, "Then if they ask where I go, tell them that I'm going out and I won't prepare a dinner."

"Yes." Roberta nodded and asked, "Should I prepare dinner for them?"

"Can you cook?" Shishio asked.

"...." Roberta's face was red, and she said, "I can buy something."

"Well, if you want to buy something, then you can buy it yourselves later," Shishio said.

"Yes." Roberta nodded.

Shishio then returned to his room and changed his clothes, brought his manuscript, put it inside the bag, and also took one of his helmets before he went out directly and grabbed his motorcycle, but before he went out...

"Huh, Oga-kun? Is that your motorcycle?"

Shishio looked at Sayaka Watanabe that he hadn't seen for a while and said, "It's quite rare for you to come back this time, Sayaka-san."

"Eh? I have always been coming home quite early now," Sayaka said while pouting. She had destroyed the circle that she recently joined so she came back quite early until she joined a new one.

Shishio looked at Sayaka, who showed such a cute expression, thinking that those simple guys would definitely be fooled by this woman. "Well, sorry for not being able to talk too long. I have to go out now."

"Eh? I thought that I could eat your food today..." Sayaka showed a sad expression.

"Sorry," Shishio said simply, ignoring Sayaka's sad expression

"Well, it is alright, but next time, can you give me a ride too?" Sayaka asked.

"Why not? But let's do that in the future." Shishio nodded perfunctory then said, "Well, I'll leave first, bye, Sayaka-san."

The sound of a motorcycle slowly left Sakurasou. Sayaka stared at Shishio's back and squinted her eyes. Somehow, even though Chihiro was forbidding her, she just couldn't help it, right?
