I Went Out With a Losing Heroine, But Before I knew It, My Childhood Friend, Who’s Supposed to be Th

“―So, what exactly does Marin-chan want to film?”

　As the four of them moved along, Nagisa, who hadn’t known what kind of a video they would be filming, asked Marin, who was walking next to her.

　Yō hadn’t heard from Marin yet either, so he listened to her silently.

　Marin opened her mouth with a cute smile on her face as she attracted the attention of all three on what she’s about to say.

“I’d like to go on a sweets tour…”

“―!?”

　The words were uttered very happily and without malice.

　However, when Kasumi and Nagisa heard the statement, they stopped as if they had been turned into a stone.

　They looked up at Yō’s face with an almost audible creaking movement.

“I haven’t heard of this…?”

“It’s the first time I’ve heard of it too, okay? Well, Kasumi loves sweets too, so what’s the problem with that?”

　Yō tilted his head curiously as Kasumi stared at him with resentful eyes.

　Ever since she was a child, Kasumi had often eaten cake, and when Yō offered to give some to her, she would eat it with great joy, because she loved sweets.

　So there seemed to be nothing wrong with it, but Kasumi still glared at Yō’s face with even more bitterness.

“Just because I like it, that doesn’t mean it’s not good for this situation…!”

“You’re right…! How are you going to take responsibility for this, Yō-kun…!”

　Not only Kasumi, but Nagisa was also blaming Yō for something.

　Apparently, the video that Marin was planning to film was no good for Nagisa either.

“What’s the problem? I thought a video of a girl eating sweets would be popular with guys?”

“I’m not talking about that…!”

　Yō thought that Kasumi and Marin eating sweets in a delicious and adorable way would make a great scene and attract an audience, but Kasumi looked into his face with a serious expression.

　Yō couldn’t help but take a step back as her face came into close proximity.

“Then tell me what’s the reason…”

”Please, try and take a guess from there…!”

“You should definitely know what it is…!”

　When Yō took a step back, Kasumi and Nagisa took a step closer to him.

　Yō couldn’t understand what they were trying to say to him, and he couldn’t help but look at Marin, who also didn’t seem to understand the situation and had a confused look on her face.

　Marin looked as if she was asking herself if she had said something wrong.

“Kasumi aside, Nagisa, this doesn’t sound like you. You have to be more specific about what you’re trying to say.”

“I feel like I’ve been ridiculed just now…!”

　Kasumi puffed out her cheeks and thumped her chest as Yō told her to give Nagisa a proper explanation.

　Apparently, she didn’t like the fact that Nagisa was the one that got the question, not her.

“I’m not making a fool of you. So, what is it about?”

　Yō held Kasumi’s hand gently and asked Nagisa.

　Then Nagisa turned away with a slight blush on her face.

　But then she slowly opened her mouth.

“If you don’t exercise, you won’t be…”

“Huh?”

“Like I said, the more you eat, the more you’ll have to exercise…”

“Oh, that.”

　Nagisa’s slightly desperate words finally made sense to Yō.

　Aside from Kasumi, who has a body proportion as good as a model’s, Nagisa seems to be concerned as well, as she is usually on a rampage fending off the haters that’s coming on her.

　It seems natural since Nagisa is also a girl after all.

“Well, since it’s only Kasumi and Akimi in the video, there’s no need for Nagisa to eat some, right?”

“That’s just cruel of you! You’re going to leave the food right in front of me…!?”

　When someone eats in front of you, you’ll inevitably want to eat too.

　It would be cruel to ask her to put up with it, that’s why Nagisa urged him.

“Well then, just hang in there…”

“Yō-kun, you’re a demon…!”

　Nagisa stared at Yō’s face resentfully.

　From the look on her face, it seemed that Nagisa was in a lot of conflict.

　As she looked at Nagisa, Kasumi looked at Marin.

“Or rather, why isn’t Akimi-san worried about it…?”

　It all started when Marin suggested that they go on a sweets tour, so Kasumi asked Marin inquisitively.

　However, Marin tilted her head curiously.

“Does it really bother you guys to eat that much…?”

　When Kasumi and Nagisa saw Marin’s reaction, a shiver ran through them.

　That’s when they realized something.

　The fact that Marin hadn’t been on any kind of diet for a long time made them shudder.

　It was true that Kasumi looked thinner than Marin.

　But even with this in mind, Kasumi couldn’t help but feel unreasonable.

　It was also easy to imagine where Marin’s food and nutrients went. [EDN: Booba.]

“I think I’m starting to hate you, Akimi-san…”

“Eh!? Why!?”

　When Kasumi muttered, Marin couldn’t help but shout out in surprise.
