[TSSIM] Chapter 492: Interested in Him?
🕑 Added 2025-01-21 20:25:24 +0000 UTCUpon hearing Elf's bold words, Homura felt a sudden headache.
It couldn't be helped.
Elf's reason was just unbelievable—even Izumi looked at her a bit strangely.
First of all, things didn't always turn out as perfectly as one imagined.
If one wanted to have a dream, was it something one could have whenever one wanted?
Even if they really had a dream, was it really the dream they wanted?
Moreover, there was a saying that what one thought about during the day would come up in their dreams at night, but those dreams usually happened when they were worrying about something, and they were almost always bad dreams.
For this reason, when it came to dreams, Homura wasn't very optimistic.
Even so, whatever their reasons, if they really wanted to hear the song he sang, then he would just record it!
It would only take about ten minutes anyway.
"Alright, fine, you win." Homura said with a helpless expression. "I'll record it for you when we get back."
""Yay~!""
Elf and Nayuta high-fived.
Seeing this, Homura's smile couldn't help but turn gentle before he ruffled their heads.
And so, the group kept walking until they reached the Hoshino residence.
"Mya-nee, see you later."
Glancing at Mya-nee, Homura waved goodbye to her.
"Mmm... see you later..."
Strangely, even though Mya-nee said goodbye, she didn't seem to want to turn around and go inside her house. Coupled with her slightly awkward expression, it made Homura wonder if she wanted to say something else.
Seeing her like this, Homura stopped, pulling back the leg he had already lifted, and then asked curiously.
"What's up? Is there something else?"
Hearing Homura's question, Mya-nee blushed before replying with a slight stutter.
"U-Um... Mi-Minamiya-kun... thank you... for your swimsuit."
Whoosh—!
As soon as Mya-nee finished speaking, she was gone.
"No need to thank me..." Homura replied while rubbing his nose, though the one he replied to had already gone.
"She's already gone."
As the girls shot him a look, Eriri spoke with a straight face.
"Who told Mya-nee to run so fast..." Homura shrugged casually.
"Still, that did give me a shock..." Kotori stuck out her tongue. "I thought Hoshino-senpai was about to confess to Homura-kun."
Girls: "..."
"It did kinda look like it..." Utaha said with a smirk. "Well, maybe she really does have feelings for Homura-kun, who knows..."
"Impossible." Eriri scoffed. "Homura's already got his harem going, and she knows that too. Could someone like her really be interested in him?"
Upon hearing this, Homura was speechless, and his right eyebrow twitched slightly.
Meanwhile, Nanami, after hearing the words of Utaha and Eriri, thought for a moment and then spoke up.
"Eriri, if a guy gave you a swimsuit, would you accept it?"
"If it's Homura, of course I'd accept it! Hmph, even if he didn't give it to me, I'd want it anyway!"
Eriri responded without thinking, but shortly after responding, she realized what Nanami meant.
"Wait, you're saying... since Mya—Hoshino-senpai accepted the swimsuit Homura gave her, maybe she's into him?"
"I don't know…" Nanami shook her head, her face turning red. "I was just thinking from my own perspective. If I didn't really like Homura-kun, I'd feel a little awkward accepting it, even if I just had a little crush..."
"Maybe it's related to us?" Nico chimed in nonchalantly. "I mean, every single one of us accepted Homura's swimsuits, so maybe she just went along with it?"
Everyone thought about her words for a moment and agreed.
In a situation where everyone else accepted Homura's swimsuits, it would actually be weird if Mya-nee didn't, which would make her seem like she didn't fit in.
Considering that Mya-nee had trouble making friends, when she finally found a group she could connect with, she probably wanted to blend in, right?
Megumi sighed softly and then spoke up.
"Anyway, if Mya—Hoshino-senpai really likes Homura-kun, she'll definitely never regret it in the future."
Girls: "…"
Truthfully, there was no flaw in Megumi's reasoning.
If a girl could still like Homura after knowing his situation, there was no way she would regret it.
"Hey, girls... maybe we should head home?"
Homura chimed in while scratching his head, feeling a bit awkward, especially since they were standing right in front of the door to Mya-nee's house.
Weren't they worried that the door might suddenly open?
"Uh... Let's go!" Elf said, quickly stepping forward.
Meanwhile, the others quickly followed right behind her, clearly having overlooked the issue earlier.
Homura chuckled and shook his head before following them.

Minamiya Residence, Living Room.
"Ahh~" Honoka patted her stomach in satisfaction and leaned back on the couch. "I didn't expect lunch to be this late today…"
"It's not that bad, right?" Maki glanced at the time. "Well, it was a bit late, but I don't really feel hungry."
"Impossible?!" Honoka shot up from the couch, looking shocked. "Everyone's stomachs must be growling already since we performed, right?"
"Only you." Maki rolled her eyes.
"I don't believe it!" Honoka turned to the others with a pleading look.
However, except for Yukiho, everyone instinctively avoided Honoka's gaze.
"See? There's one more!" Honoka pointed at her little sister with a triumphant look, as if saying—I knew you were wrong!
Seeing this, Yukiho suddenly felt a bit conflicted.
If it had been anyone else, it wouldn't have been a big deal, but since it was her, didn't this make it seem like all the girls in the Kousaka family were gluttons?
Still, since her cousin Kirino didn't seem like a glutton, didn't that mean it was just herself and her big sister?
Realizing this—
"Um... Nee-chan, actually, I'm not hungry..." Yukiho said while blushing, clearly feeling embarrassed.
For the honor of the Kousaka family, let her lie just this once!
Honoka: "?!!"
"Pfff—Hahahaha—!"
Nico couldn't hold in her laughter, since Honoka's expression was just too funny.
"How could you betray me, Yukiho!" Honoka pointed angrily at her little sister.
"What are you talking about? I don't get it." Yukiho looked away, pretending not to understand.
"Yukiho—!"
Honoka suddenly pounced on Yukiho, and the two sisters started bickering.
Seeing them play around, no one tried to stop them since it was obvious they were just having fun.
"Nyaa? Where's Haru-chan gone?"
Rin noticed that Haru, who had just finished eating, was nowhere to be seen.
"She's in the yard. Probably full and enjoying the sun, letting her food settle before exercising." Homura said with a shrug. "She really likes that stump. Lately, she spends most of her time just resting on it."
"Stump?" Rin was confused for a moment before she remembered. "Wait, do you mean the tree stump you mentioned earlier, Homura-kun?"
"Umu." Homura nodded.
"I wanna see, nyaa!"
Without wasting time, Rin immediately darted off to the yard.
A moment later—
"Woah~ What a huge stump!"
Rin's loud voice echoed from the yard, full of amazement.
"Feels like two butts could sit on it!"
Everyone: "..."
Two butts could sit on it?
What kind of description was that?
"It's not that big! At most, one and a half butts!"
Homura suddenly shouted, making everyone's lips twitch.
