Why Not Make Both Twins 'Girlfriends'?-Chapter 3Volume 2 .2 - The Love Letter Predator...?
The Love Letter Predator…? 2
“Both of you, don’t move…!”
In the dimly lit, humid space, the three of them were stuck together.
“Hyaa…!? S-Sakuto-kun, did you just…!?”
“I-It’s because Hikari pushed me…”
“Ehehehe~ there-there♪ That’s for trying to abandon me earlier♪”
“Hyaa! Now it’s… ah, wait, that’s not okay…!”
“It’s not me! Hikari, you shouldn’t be messing around…!”
Sakuto was sandwiched between the twin sisters, who tightly pressed their chests against him.
If he moved back, he would be pressed against Chikage; if he moved forward, he would be pressed against Hikari.
Sakuto tried to stay perfectly still in this situation, but his plan was naive.
Hikari was deliberately pressing her chest against him. If he backed away, Chikage’s chest would press against his back.
Moreover, the floral scent emanating from both of their hair was so enchanting that he almost forgot they were inside a cleaning locker.
Now, he couldn’t even understand for whose sake they were hiding together like this.
Why could Hikari joke around in this situation?
In the first place, wouldn’t it have been better to just shove Hikari into the locker alone?
If they were found in this state, wouldn’t strange rumors start to circulate——?
In other words, it was a “complete disaster” after he had cornered himself completely.
While Sakuto was caught in this soft sandwich——
“——Huh? Did this locker just move…?”
Wakana stared at the locker with surprise. Something seemed suspicious.
She cautiously approached the locker and reached for the handle when——
“——Wakana, what’s wrong?”
Suddenly, someone from behind called out to Wakana.
“Ah, Matori-senpai…”
——Kousaka Matori, a second-year student.
The vice president of the Newspaper Club to which Wakana belonged.
Matori was tall and slender, with her long hair tied back in a single ponytail. She had a lively aura that made her seem like she belonged in the track and field club, but in her hand was her own SLR camera.
“Are you heading to the clubroom now?”
“Yeah. I’ve got some errands to run. Wakana, want to come to the clubroom with me?”
“Well, okay.”
“Actually, I have something I want to discuss with you, Wakana.”
“It’s not your usual nonsense, is it…”
“How rude! I am, you see, very kind to my kouhai. Anyway, you are——”
And with that, Wakana was led away by Matori——
” ” “…” ” “
The three inside the locker quietly waited for the two sets of footsteps to fade away.
Finally, when the sound was gone, the three of them quietly opened the door and stepped outside.
“Phew… it was so hot… I’m all sticky with sweat…”
“Geez, Hii-chan! How could you take advantage of the situation like that!?”
“Ehehehe, did it make your heart race?”
“Of course it did! Also, you touched my butt, didn’t you!?”
“Sorry, that might have been me…”

“Um… well, that’s okay then! Hii-chan, you can’t do that kind of joking around again, okay!?”
Ah, it’s okay if it’s me—Sakuto thought with a sigh as he looked at Chikage.
“Mmm, but you know, getting all excited made me hungry. So, let’s go to the cafeteria!”
“Ah, wait! Hii-chan!”
Before Chikage could scold her, Hikari took off running again.
Watching her, Sakuto thought he had had enough of cleaning lockers for one day.
——And then.
The incident occurred after school that day——
* * *
The end-of-day bell rang, and Sakuto stepped into the hallway along with the other students leaving the classroom.
(Maybe I’ll go to the bookstore and wait until their errands are done…)
Thinking this, he went to change his shoes at the entrance——
(…Hmm? What’s this?)
As he opened the door of the shoe locker to change his shoes, Sakuto found it.
On top of the neatly arranged shoes was an envelope. Picking it up, he saw a somewhat childish but cute envelope with the round writing, “To Takayashiki Sakuto-kun.”
——He tried to recall his memory
Chikage had been practicing calligraphy, so her writing was round but firm.
It was more similar to Hikari’s handwriting, but the stops, flicks, and sweeps didn’t match hers.
(Then, who is it from…?)
Turning it over, he saw it was sealed with a heart sticker, but there was no sender’s name.
This might be what’s called a love letter, but——
(If that’s the case, it’s quite risky…)
Considering the possibility of it being spread on SNS or posted on the hallway bulletin board, it was a risky move.
Of course, he had no intention of doing such a thing, but he decided to check the contents anyway.
Peeling off the heart sticker, he pulled out a folded letter.
It read,
『Please come to the back of the club buildings after school today.』
Again, there was no name of the sender, and the intention behind the invitation was unclear.
Was the sender planning to confess her feelings to him——
『I’ve liked you for a long time, Sakuto』
The faint voice of Kusanagi Yuzuki from junior high school seemed to echo in his ears.
(But this is too sudden…)
“After school today” probably meant right now——
Was the sender waiting for him behind the club buildings right now?
With girlfriends like Hikari and Chikage, not going was also an option.
However, if he didn’t show up, the sender might end up waiting until the end of the school day.
(I hope it’s just a prank, but if it’s serious…)
Reluctant as he was, Sakuto headed to the back of the club buildings after much deliberation.
* * *
As he approached the back of the club building, sure enough, he could see the figure of a girl.
Sakuto braced himself and approached the familiar twin-tails he recognized from somewhere.
Upon noticing Sakuto’s footsteps, the girl timidly turned around——
“Thank you for coming, Takayashiki-kun. I’m Higashino Wakana from class 5…”
The girl waiting for him was the one who had been chasing after Hikari.
Surprise and a question mark popped up at the same time.
They had never really spoken before, and he had no idea why she would call him out.
Wakana’s cheeks had been flushed ever since he arrived, and she stood there while rubbing her knees together, looking anxious and fidgety.
Could it be a confession?
No, maybe she’s holding in a need to use the restroom. No, no, maybe she called me out because of Hikari.
No, no, no, or maybe——
There’s no use in guessing.
For now, Sakuto put on a small smile while trying to gauge the situation.
