Taming The Villainesses

(EP-54.1) Theo #3

054 – Silver Rookie Theo #3

The first day of class went by quickly.

Before I realized, it had already been evening.

Half-expecting, I headed towards the same balcony where I first met Narmi Draco.

I felt like I was being deceived…

Had she already forgotten our appointment. Or could it be that she just lightly threw those words at me to escape the immediate situation?

Upon almost reaching the promised place, I could feel something on the balcony over the corner.

Sch.

Poking my head out, I could see someone there.

I couldn’t see the person’s face because they were wearing a hoodie over their school uniform. However, looking at their physique, it was a similar body type to that of Lady Draco’s.

I approached slowly and opened my mouth.

“Excuse me-.”

“Isn’t it too late, commoner? The moon has already risen. It is a great sin to have me, Draco’s Young Miss, wait.”

Seuk.

I was stumped at this unexpected reaction. Nonetheless, I took off my hood and looked at her loose silver hair.

Her red eyes shone under the hood as her mouth curved into a crescent.

“Pffft, I’m just kidding! What did you think? It was the same as my sister, right?”

“Ah.”

So she was just pretending…

Having the same face and same voice, she could act like her sister with minor differences. Before I could grumble, Narmi said cheerfully.

“Sometimes I walk around pretending to be my sister! Though, it’d be bad if she finds out… But she’s sleeping right now, so it’s okay!”

“Your sister is sleeping?”

“Yes, yes! There was a lecture early this morning. Actually, my older sister sleeps a lot in the morning. And when she wakes up early in the morning, she’ll need to go to bed early in the evening!”

Narmi’s cheerful words contained quite a bit of information.

Mirna slept a lot in the morning, so that was why she arrived late and only got to class when it was full.

Anyway.

I was surprised that Narmi Draco really came here.

I also still couldn’t get used to the fact that this bright and bubbly person had the same face as that arrogant and rude woman I met this morning.

Amidst my thoughts, Narmi looked around and spoke to me in a soft voice.

“So, Theo, how did it go…?”

“What do you mean?”

When I asked and pretended not to know, Narmi looked impatient, like some person itching from ants stuck to their feet.

“Remember last time, when you had your first kiss with Lady Lioness? What happened after that? Did you get along well?”

“That’s….”

I slowly blurted out some words, wondering how to explain this. I could see her focus on my lips.

“It worked out somehow. But since then, it’s been a little awkward.”

“Yeah? Are there problems still? What do you mean by ‘awkward’?!”

Narmi showed great interest as if this was her job.

I could clearly tell that she was the type of girl who liked to talk about other people’s love affairs. Hence, I decided to create an interesting story by mixing half-truth and fiction.

“At school, we don’t seem to have any overlapping schedules. Since we don’t even get to see each other, it’s hard to get close with her.”

“That’s a no go… From what I’ve heard, they said that the farther the distance, the farther the heart.”

“Is that true?”

“Yes!”

“As expected, Narmi-nim is very knowledgeable about dating.”

“Well, of course!”

Well, this was kind of fun.

Narmi was an innocent girl.

If I had been able to choose not to be Theo, but to be the attendant of an ordinary noble lady, I think it would be good to live with a girl like Narmi.

Thinking this, I once again got reminded of how difficult Aira and Elga were, which caused my body to tremble. Right now, Narmi’s older sister wasn’t that easy to deal with either.

Narmi then said.

“It’s good to see each other often! You two need to meet up! So, there was really no contact after that? Like holding hands or kissing or something…”

“Contact….”

At Narmi’s question, I recalled the dark night I spent in the Confession Room with Elga. I wondered what kind of expression Narmi would make if I told her the truth.

The innocent face of the traitorous Draco Family’s Young Lady being painted with embarrassment, now that was a revenge worth seeing!

… But, it was not the time yet.

“It was just that.”

“Just that?”

“Actually, I had another chance. But I was scared that if I kissed clumsily again, I might really be thrown away…. So I couldn’t….”

“Ugh…. That’s a big deal. You got frightened….”

Narmi let out a long nasal noise as if she really felt bad. Though, her face began to blush more and more for some reason.

Seeing this, I said to Narmi.

“So, are you really going to teach me?”

“Teach you…?”

“You said you would teach me how to kiss the right way.”

“Ah-. That, I did-. I thought you had forgotten… You’re smart, you!”

Narmi suddenly began to look drastically different. Was it because I managed to catch her off guard?

In the first place, this meeting was the one that Narmi had put off to teach me how to kiss properly.

And wouldn’t it mean that Narmi came out here with some determination?

With my brain cogs turning, I said to her earnestly.

“Narmi-nim, I beg of you! If I go on like this, Lady Lioness might start to hate me! Even if I have another chance, I’m afraid that I’ll become clumsy all over again!”

Thump, thump.

“… Uh, uhhh-.”

As I approached Narmi one step at a time, she likewise took a step backwards in the opposite direction with a panicked face. Eventually, she had her back against the wall.

It was also the place where I once got driven by Elga and had my lips stolen.

I said to the restless Narmi, who was trapped between my arms.

“Since Narmi-nim is a love doctor, you must have kissed a lot.”

“Uh, huh? Yeah, you can say that, you can also say otherwise….”

“Then you won’t have any problem with kissing me once, right?”

“…….”

I could see Narmi’s red eyes moving frantically from side to side. Her face already turned red as a carrot, and her breathing was ragged and rough.

I slowly leaned my head closer to Narmi’s. Because both of us were of similar height, it was easy to do that.

Seuk~ Then something soft touched my lips. It was, of course, Narmi’s lips, and in a way her sister Mirna Draco’s lips too.

Squeeze-.

I gently wrapped my arms around Narmi’s waist and gently rolled my tongue against hers.

My movements were gentle to make her feel at ease. Then, I gently slid my tongue into her lips that were starting to open.

Slurp, slurp.

“Haaeu, haa, uh, huh….”

Caught within a hug, Narmi could neither reject nor accept me, and could only tremble. Was this how a rabbit got bitten by the big bad fox?

Through her soft lips, I could sense the thick tension that Narmi was feeling, and the heightening of some emotions buried underneath.

“Haaeu, heueut, heuuu.”
