Tokyo: About My Yandere Girlfriend

Become the nourishment of this love with peace of mind.

Taromaru.

Arisu crossed his fingers and began to pray sincerely for the last time.

----------

As the workday was approaching, Nanami Fumito appeared in the convenience store.

He hadn't been to a convenience store for a week. The moment he stepped into the store, his constant glances around seemed to make one thing clear.

"Strange... Taromaru wasn't in the convenience store today? I didn't see it."

"Taro Maru..."

Arisu lowered his face.

"It... has been missing for a while. I haven't seen any trace of it recently."

"Eh? Missing......?"

The topic suddenly took a serious turn, and Nanami felt an uneasy feeling in her heart.

"Well, there have been cases of disappearances before, but the longest time was only two days. This time... Taroumaru is probably..."

Arisu, who never raised his cheeks, had the arc of his mouth rising more and more obviously in an unnoticed position.

Great.

Next-

You can enjoy Nanami's love alone.

Chapter 220 Payday

The end of September.

Time passes as usual. The drop in temperature makes the autumn atmosphere more intense. Winter will come in more than a month. Thinking about it this way... time flies so fast.

I took a part-time job at a convenience store at the end of August...time flies, and it's already the end of September.

Being in a convenience store with a suitable temperature, even if I am working while standing, I can't help feeling sleepy.

"Sugar-chan, wake up! Today is payday, and the store manager will come to inspect the store. If he finds you like this, you'll be in trouble."

...I almost overlooked a crucial aspect.

Arisu raised his hands and slapped his cheeks hard, trying to wake himself up in this way.

When she slapped for the third time, the sensor door slowly opened to both sides.

I originally thought that the people who appeared at this time would only be guests, but the person who appeared before me at this time——

Store manager...!

In the previous second, they were still mentioning something related to the other person, and in the next second, the other person appeared in front of them. Such a rapid change of scene... made the two people present feel unreal.

"Hanako, Satoshi, thank you for your hard work."

"Yes! The store manager is also... thank you for your hard work."

Arisu responded quickly, but Asamura was a little slow in responding.

"Today is payday, you two should be looking forward to it, right?"

At certain moments, the store manager's behavior was not at all like that of a boss, but rather like an uncle who was easy to get along with.

For example at this moment.

"This is Hanako's salary."

The store manager handed the envelope over here.

Asamura took it with both hands, the excitement on his face could no longer be concealed.

"Yes! Thank you! I will work hard in the future."

"Besides—this is Sugar's salary."

The store manager handed over another envelope.

The word 'sugar' was marked on it with a red marker.

After all, there is a certain degree of difference in their salaries. If it is not specially marked, unnecessary trouble may arise.

"Yes, thank you."

Arisu also took the envelope with both hands, but the expression on his face was obviously much calmer than before.

The envelope containing the salary looked bulging on the surface. If the store manager had not been present, Arisu had a clear premonition that Asamura would definitely tear the envelope into pieces without hesitation.

"Well, I'll leave first. I have other things to do next."

As expected, after the store manager left, Asamura immediately took out the envelope from his coat pocket.

He didn't consider that he was still working at the time and just went about his own business as if no one was around.

This guy...if he encounters some troublesome customers, he will face complaints.

As a colleague, Arisu does not intend to turn a blind eye to all this.

"Asamura, you've been complained by a troublesome guy before, right? Because you chew gum while working, this time it's even more obvious. Even the store manager can't vouch for you, and you might even be implicated, after all, this incident was caused by him."

Arisu's words effectively created a deterrent effect.

Asamura obviously had no intention of taking the next step, and instead put the envelope into his coat pocket as quickly as possible.

"Yes, thank you Sugar-chan, I was almost breaking the rules."

"Indeed. Also, why would Asamura want to work part-time? I haven't seen you have such thoughts before."

"Well... um - it's hard for me to answer this. Can you tell me your reason, Sugar-chan?"

"As for me - I don't have any special reason. I just think it's unfair to Nanami if I trouble him like before and put all the financial pressure on him alone. After all, he's not a wealthy salaryman."

This is a rare expression of true feelings in others.

This is also the only reason to do this.

Arisu noticed that Asamura's face seemed to be more confused than before.

This guy... has he thought of something else?

"But, Sugar-chan is obviously the daughter of a gangster, right? If the part-time job is just to share the financial burden... it always feels weird."

...What? It turns out that I was just worrying about such meaningless things.

Arisu did not deny what Asamura said.

"Of course it's strange, because I live independently now and have never relied on my family. My father only paid for my basic tuition and didn't take care of me in other aspects."

"Huh? I see... This is really amazing."

"...Asamura is living independently, right? This kind of thing is nothing."

Having been to Asamura's house several times before, and she had deliberately mentioned these aspects before, Arisu was quite familiar with this aspect.

"I...it's nothing. It's nothing to brag about anyway. I'm used to it."

"Well - in exchange, Asamura, you have to tell me your reason, the reason why you have a part-time job."

I always feel that there is a more hidden reason why Asamura insists on persisting.

In addition-

Arisu was convinced by now.

The reason why Asamura persisted was definitely unusual.

It is said that this guy's shift schedule is quite crowded, and he would choose the more difficult night shift on weekends.

Although it feels difficult, the hourly wage will increase accordingly.

It's really amazing that Hanako Asamura, who is obviously quite weak, would work so hard.

After a brief hesitation.

Asamura clutched the corner of his clothes and his face became embarrassed.

"I...I have made plans. I will not go to college after graduation because I cannot afford the tuition. In order to adapt to the cruel reality in the future, I must work harder."

"...Is that so? That's good. It seems that Asamura is not the reckless type. He actually thought of these complicated aspects."

Judging from his physique, Asamura is only about 1.5 meters tall, with a chest that looks like it has not developed at all. It is hard to imagine that this guy is a high school student.

In terms of body shape alone, at best he is just an elementary school student with a height advantage.

"I am weak, so I must work harder in the future. I will try harder than anyone else to survive and overcome any difficulties. Otherwise, I will be defeated."

Asamura-san suddenly became full of energy...it seemed like he had turned into a different person.

"Is that so? If you are prepared, you should work hard to achieve it."

After giving the warning, Arisu looked at the time.

In half an hour, it will be time to get off work.

Nanami...

There is absolutely nothing wrong with striving to do this as long as you can feel the love you are giving.

like......

It's really great.

Chapter 221

There are two types of salary payment cycles for part-time workers, monthly and bi-monthly. The convenience store where Arisu works adopts the bi-monthly payment method.

The wages settled this time are mainly hourly wages accumulated from the end of August to mid-September.

anyway--

This is the first time I experience this feeling.
