Tokyo: Am I the only male tenant?

"What if it's really a sincere confession, will Mai accept it?"

As soon as Ginjō finished speaking, Shimazu Mai turned her head in surprise, as if testing his true intention, and their eyes met.

"Hmm? What's wrong, Mai?"

Seeing her standing there motionless, Yincheng couldn't help but move closer and asked.

"No, not really. If the person who confessed to me was the type I liked, then maybe..."

The serious expression she had previously had disappeared, and a broad smile appeared on Shimazu Mai's face.

But for some reason, Ginjo always felt that there was an unstable aura floating in her smile.

"Yes, if it were Sousuke, he would definitely confess to the person he likes sincerely, seriously, and openly, right?"

"Huhu, what will he say? I'm very curious, I have to listen to it once, haha~"

"Does Mai really want to hear it that much?"

"Yeah, Sousuke must have confessed to other girls before, right?"

Shimazu Mai's smiling face, which seemed to be pasted on her face, slowly approached Ginjō.

Before they knew it, the two of them were sitting on the bed, huddled together.

Shimazu Mai, who was staring at him, had a smile on her face, but it made him feel a strong sense of expectation.

"Since you said so, let's give it a try." Her eyes seemed to be reflecting such a sentence.

"If Sousuke could show me a confession of love like a model, my heart, which has been hurt by dishonest people, might become able to believe in love a little bit."

"That is to say, whether I can be happily in love from now on depends on Sousuke~"

It would be fine if she didn't speak, but why did she give people a joking feeling when she spoke?

"By the way, is Mai still teasing me because of what happened just now?"

Compared with her usual state, Shimazu Mai's performance today is really a bit abnormal.

"Eh? No, Sousuke can refuse if he doesn't like it."

"But the result of this is that even if I become more and more distrustful of love and resent Sousuke for the rest of my life, it's my problem, I won't blame Sousuke."

Hehe, hehehe, that harmless smile carries with it a hint of sweet pressure.

Rather than simply joking with Ginjō, it would be better to call it a kind of fun to relieve stress.

In that case, there should be no problem.

Even if she was being teased this time, it wasn't a big deal. At least it would make Shimazu Mai feel a little better.

There is still a long time to go in the future, and since the two of them live so close to each other, it is inevitable that the relationship will continue to develop in depth.

"Mai."

"Ok?"

Like drawing a gentle arc, the long eyelashes blinked.

As if it was very interesting, Shimazu Mai's eyes looked back at him from the front.

"I feel that Mai is not as mature as the students think, and you sometimes treat me like a child. To be honest, I am a little uncomfortable with it."

"Eh? Are you suddenly saying bad things about me? I was expecting Sousuke to talk about more of my charming aspects..."

"Because Mai and I have only known each other for a short time, and based on my understanding of Mai, I am not yet able to say those words out loud."

"Just because you think you understand something, and you make comments here and there, isn't that hypocritical?"

The silhouettes of the boys she had rejected flashed through her mind.

Shimazu Mai seemed to have the same idea as him and laughed happily.

"What a shame. If Sousuke had said the same thing to those boys who knew nothing, I would have wanted to bully you."

"Sure enough, I knew it would be like this."

"But as you said, 'the confession is not from the heart', isn't my opinion correct?"

"Don't we all say 'like' based on appearance without knowing the other person?"

"That's not what I meant. It's precisely because I don't know that I want to understand."

"So Sousuke wants to know? My business."

Shimazu Mai's hair swayed gently, her body leaned down, and her face moved closer to Ginjō.

"Of course, if Mai is willing to share with me."

"Does that mean that if we date, the relationship between the two people will become closer, and it will be easier for us to understand each other's affairs?"

It seems that Shimazu Mai wants Ginjō to say those words no matter what.

Although they knew that all this was like an improvisational play, without any script or preparation time, they were just given a theme and asked to perform freely.

But even so, Shimazu Mai still looked very dedicated.

She looked at Ginjo's face with joy, and now it was impossible to stop.

Ginjō maintained his original breathing rate, trying to absorb the nervousness before the confession but he was unable to succeed.

Because he knew that this was not a real confession at all, it was just a little joke between two people.

"Mai, I like you, please date me!"

As she wished, Ginjo Sousuke said it.

Of course, Shimazu Mai should also be aware that this matter is not serious.

But for some reason, she still acted very shy, unable to look directly at Ginjō's face and lowered her face.

Yincheng couldn't help but sigh that she was much better at getting into the role than he was.

He still maintained a serious expression, waiting for Shimazu Mai's reaction.

The follow-up should be to say "Just a joke" with a smile and end the topic.

However, no matter how much time passed, Shimazu Mai beside her did not make a sound.

Could it be that Ginjo's lines were too direct, leaving her speechless?

Ginjo Sousuke was somewhat puzzled, and could not help lowering his head to look towards her.

After seeing it, he almost shouted "Huh?"

Shimazu Mai's cheeks were redder than ever before.

"Mai?"

The sporadic sounds made seemed almost unconscious rather than speaking to people.

At this moment, Shimazu Mai shuddered violently and shook her body exaggeratedly.

"What...what...how...how...absolutely not! No, no no no, isn't it just ordinary..."

She straightened her body and slid away from Ginjō.

Then, he slipped too much and fell off the bed on his butt, making a painful "puff" sound.

"Are you okay, Mai?"

"Of...Of course! It's no big deal! I'm a...a...a...adult!"

So what is going on?

Before Yincheng could figure out what was going on, a bell rang on campus, announcing the end of lunch break five minutes before it ended.

"Eh? No way, it's already this late, ahem, this won't do."

"I'll be late for class... Come on! The teacher asked me to help prepare for the hygiene class this afternoon! So I have to go to the classroom early! Well, then, please forgive me!"

Like a storm, Shimazu Mai rushed out of the health room, leaving behind a series of noisy clattering footsteps.

His usual calmness, composure and elegance were gone at this moment.

Ginjo Sosuke thought she was just too engrossed in the play and did not bother to investigate further. He closed the open door and went back to the classroom for class.

"I'm back--"

After finishing a day's work, she returned to an empty room and no one responded with "welcome back". Shimazu Mai still felt a little uncomfortable.

You have to know that this is the first time for her to truly experience living alone since she grew up.

Both her parents moved back to their hometown to take care of their grandmother who had suffered a stroke. The long distance meant that she could no longer meet with her family often.

Without time for more sentimentality, she just took off her shoes, walked into the room, put down her bag, and then -

"Ahhhhhh! Aaaaah, wooooaaaaah!"

broken.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, Shimazu Mai fell on the bed with a strange noise.

He held his head, curled up, and rolled around in the room.

The hem of her dress turned up, revealing the lovely white triangle inside, but she didn't take it seriously. She couldn't care less about it now.

"Ah, disgusting! This is so disgusting! Why would I react like that in front of Sousuke?!"

She obviously didn't want to think about it again, but today's gaffe kept lingering in her mind.

Why does my face turn red so easily in front of Ginjō?

In fact, as he said, he had never dated any boys.

Not only that, I don't remember ever having any intimate conversations with him, so now he's completely exposed.

"No, absolutely not. This is the only thing that is absolutely not allowed!"

"I finally managed to build up a somewhat mature image in front of him, but how come it was exposed so quickly!"

Shimazu Mai was half lying on the bed, scratching her head and screaming.

Because of rolling back and forth, her skirt became wrinkled and her hair became messy.

This was a disastrous scene, but since there was no one else in the room, it was not a big deal.

Even though she screamed out loudly, she felt that her passion was not fully released. She could only rub the cushion beside her and twist it this way and that.
