Why me?

p1
>Why me?

p2
>Summary of last time
>Through one way or another, I've started talking with Uchi Emiri more often.

p3
>Y'know~ Kuroki-san and Ucchi~
>You two have been pretty close lately, haven't you?

>Wh-What are you saying!? We're not close at all!
>Yeah, we're not really like that...

>We're not!?

>If you're that close~
>why don't you just start dating already?

>Wh-What are you saying!?
>What the heck...? But sure, why not...

>You're okay with it!?

p4
>As if that feline was pushing us from behind, the two of us went to the shopping mall to hang out.

>Ah... Thanks for today...
>>Acting awkward since she's still not used to her
>R-Right...
>?
>Well, I guess we can just pass the time casually hanging out...

>Y'know, even though we've known each other for a while now, we haven't gotten involved with each other much.
>We were even in the same room during the school trip...

>Th-That's...

>because you've been avoiding me, Kuroki...
>Huh!?
>I haven't been avoiding her!

p5
>That store... I went there with my friend.
>Wanna go?

>This'll definitely suit you, Kuroki...
>I'll buy it for you...
>Stop that.

>This is good! It's my treat!
>She smiled!! In a very emoji way, though.

>Here's a handkerchief. You don't have to return it.
>I don't need it.

>Kuroki, are you okay? Are you tired from walking?

>Huh?
>This is...

>kinda weird...

>This is weird... Was Uchi-san...

p6
>ever this cute before!?
>Kuroki~

>Even though she's supposed to look like an emoji...
>Sea otter hotpot? [TN:A meme from Golden Kamuy. Look up "rakko nabe" if you're interested.]

>...Kuroki?
>Hey, Uchi-san... Why...

>Why do you do all this for someone like me?

p7
>Even though I'm me...

>When you look at me objectively, I'm... y'know.
>I'm filthy, stinky, and a total geek... But compared to me, you're as normal and normal comes, Uchi-san...
>There's no real merits in dating me... given how totally "y'know" I am...

>No, that's not... Well? It kinda is but... not...
>Huh?

>...Did you know that you're alluring?
>Eh?
>I guess not...

>I don't really get it myself, but...
>If I had to pick a reason why I like you, Kuroki, it's...

>because I love you
>in a sexual way.

p8
>What the heck is she saying!?

>Love!? Me!?
>Didn't I just say we haven't been involved much!?

>And wait, "sexual"!?
>Did she just say "in a sexual way"!?

>Let's think about it rationally.
>Does this girl just want to hug me?

>No...
>It's the opposite.

>You've been looking at me since the school trip, right?

>What do you think?
>What do I think?

p9
>Uchi-san...
>When I see her like this...

>You've got some nice boobs.

>Eh!?
>Ah!?
>No no no no no no no! That's not what I meant!

>Or rather!!
>I don't really like you or anything, Uchi-san!

p10
>I made yet another mistake... Why does this keep happening to me!?
>And what about my boobs!? Has she been staring at them all day!? Gross, gross, gross, gross!
>What's with this turn of events!? What am I gonna do about this mood!?
>Weren't we just gonna have a casual day out?


>Ah, geez, this is so frustrating...

>But that's just fine~
>Just one more push, Ucchi...!
>Hey...
>When you said we should go to the shopping mall, is this what you meant?
