Chapter 03: Arashi’s Everyday Life, A Premonition Of A Big Storm

I was in a strange place.

“You are mine* and I am yours… Well, that’s not quite the right way to put it. We are lovers who love each other. But right now, I just want to tell you that I love you so much.” [TLN- Mine* as in case thing/property]

Shirayuki hugged me.

Not to Arashi who has an ugly body, but to myself, or so I could say… that’s why I could recognise this as a dream that could never be a reality.

“How about you? Not going to say how much you love me?”

“Love… right. I don’t know how much I wished for you. But we can no longer see each other again.”

“But now, we are meeting, aren’t we?”

“It’s not real… we can meet as many times as we want in a dream.”

When I said this, the Shirayuki in front of me puffed her cheeks a little.

“Still, one cannot dream as one wishes. So wouldn’t it be nice to surrender yourself to this miracle right now?”

“… You think so?”

“Yes. Rather, it was you who has told me many times that you love me. I love you so much, remember? Don’t tell me that those choices are not your true feelings?”

“Those choices you say… aren’t you getting a bit off meta, Shirayuki-san?”

“Ufufu♪”

What does this dream mean?

Well, even being reincarnated as Arashi feels like a dream, and seeing the real Shirayuki at the end of it all is also like a dream… if that’s the case, I can do whatever I want in this dream world without being worried.

“I… I love you, Shirayuki. My friends used to laugh at me for loving you too much, but, well, you were kind of my favorite character.”

“And that favorite character is right in front of you. So, what do you want to do with me?”

“Well, that’s obvious, isn’t it? I want to do a lot of dirty things with you!”

“… To tell you the truth. That’s what I want too♪”

The way she fluttered her silvery white hair with her hands was beautiful.

She took off her crimson red uniform and unbuttoned one button at a time of the shirt underneath, revealing the hidden fullness.

“!?”

“Don’t look away, it’s just a dream, so enjoy it as much as you like, okay?”

“… Nuoooooooh!!”

Yes, this is a dream… If it’s a dream, there should be nothing wrong with doing what you want.

Then I selflessly devoured her body… and in response, Shirayuki also aroused me by showing me all the expressions she had shown in the game, and at the same time, she also wanted me.

And when it was over.

“It was intense… very intense.”

“… Hey, Shirayuki, I’m really glad—”

“Would you stop with that?”

[TLN- The phrase she used here has similar meaning to – unmanly, you know what I mean]

“!?”

She placed her finger on my lips and said it strongly.

Even though I was taken aback by the sudden change in mood, I could only keep looking at Shirayuki with a sharp gaze.

“Don’t you understand that I wouldn’t want to hear that even though I did all of that? Do I really have to say it out loud, specifically to make you understand?”

“………”

Yeah, that’s right, she’s Shirayuki after all, I smiled bitterly.

She is not a yes-man, but she also has a stern nature, reprimanding the main character if he is not up to par… This is also typical of her, with her carrot-and-stick all-encompassing nature.

“… Yeah, I know. My bad— that was great, Shirayuki.”

“It’s all right. I had fun too♪”

“… As expected, you were having fun.”

“Eh?”

I blurted out in embarrassment.

“You’re just so cute. That smile, that dignified expression… and even though you can be serious sometimes, you’re still as beautiful as ever… ahaha, I love you so much, Shirayuki.”

“…!”

“Ah, embarrassed?”

“Of course I’ll be embarrassed! What are you suddenly saying to make me so happy with your handsome face? Idiot!”

She was so cute when she tapped my chest with her fists and I couldn’t help but love it.

But the sad part was that this was all just a dream… Well, I’ve to keep living as Arashi, and I guess I’ll have to accept the fact that she hates me.

“Let’s just have a drink, shall we?”

“Do you have such a thing with you…”

“Look here it is~ this, your favorite orange juice.”

“Thank you!”

I mean, does this girl even know what I like? … By the way, orange juice is really my favorite.

So was my dream that was so wonderful that I wished it could go on forever, but alas, as I have said many times before, it was only a dream— I woke up right after.

▽▼

“…?”

When I opened my eyes, Shirayuki was not in front of me.

I quickly tried to get up and… couldn’t.

“Heavy… damn it!”

My belly fat was getting in the way, making it difficult for me to get up easily… damn it, just how obese is this body?!

I realized that I needed to work hard to lose weight quickly, and I made a strong resolution, but then I looked at my face in the mirror and sighed quietly.

“It would have been even better if I had been able to go back to the way I was after having such a wonderful dream… It can’t be that convenient, can it?”

It was May and not too hot, but I was sweating a lot… I guess I smell also.

I can tolerate my own body odor to some extent, and I’ll probably get used to it, but from my current perspective, I was experiencing Arashi’s body for the first time… so it was unbearable.

“Ahh, school! Gotta go!!”

I quickly got up and prepared to head to school.

After eating a casually baked bread, I changed my clothes and left the apartment immediately.

“… Strange. This area and the road to school seem to be perfectly imprinted in my mind.”

It’s a relief that even if I don’t have all the memories as Arashi, at least I can still recognize this place.

Then, swaying my huge body and sweating, I finally saw the school.

“… Wow.”

Misaki High School, that’s the school I, Arashi, go to.

Of course, it was not only me, but also Shirayuki and the protagonist, who attended this school… I never thought I would actually see this place with my own eyes.

“All right, let’s go.”

Then I headed to my classroom.

The main character was in the next class, but Shirayuki was in my class… I mean, it would be hard to actually see her in the eyes after having that dream.

However, it didn’t take long for such things to stop bothering me.

(… I see, so this is how Arashi Gundo is treated.)

The second-year C class, many eyes were drawn to the moment I stepped into the classroom.

Boys ridiculed him, girls cussed at me… well, not everyone, but it clearly shows how much Arashi’s character is hated.

(As a player, I also hate him… anyways, this is a given.)

I am indeed Arashi Gundo, but whether it’s the impact of reincarnation or not, I can observe the current situation to some extent objectively.

Since I can see the current situation from a viewpoint like an onlooker rather than Arashi, even if I’m looked at with disdainful eyes, I can only think that it’s difficult.

“Hey fatty, why did you come to school again?”

“You’re sweating too much. How disgusting.”

“Do you smell yourself? You stink.”

Oh, yeah, say whatever you want, you b******s.

I don’t intend to follow Arashi’s way of life, I will definitely lose weight and make you howl for sure, so get ready for that.

“We’re classmates, aren’t we? Have you no shame in doing that?”

At that moment, I suddenly remembered my past as Arashi. I learned that Arashi was hurt in this way before, but Shirayuki came to help.

I guess that one incident implanted distorted emotions in Arashi for her.

It’s not surprising that Arashi was attracted to a girl who helped him a little when he was never accepted by anyone, not even his family.

(But later, his response was so bad that it seemed like Shirayuki had given up on him too.)

In the end, it was Arashi himself who stepped on Shirayuki’s kindness.

Anyways, I pretended to sleep, shutting out the noise around me, waiting for time to pass, and finally she came.

“Good morning.”

Shirayuki greeted the students with a cool voice as she gracefully entered the classroom.

She glanced at me and greeted one approaching friend after another.

“…”

Her blue eyes were the same as in my dream, I was a little nervous, but she never came close to me in reality…

“… haah.”

I guess I’ll just have to accept that this is my everyday life, this is Arashi’s everyday life.

The stares from those around me were both thorny and disgusting, but since it was nothing to the point of bullying, the day ended without any particular concern and the school was over.

I quickly went home, changed, and ran out of my room for a run, just as I had done before when I exercised.

“… Fuh… Fuuh… guhe!!!”

Ugh… I never thought running would be this exhausting.

Despite feeling tired, I kept running, determined not to stop.

“… Let’s take a break!”

After running about three kilometers, I sat on a bench to rest. And then, to my surprise, I heard a voice.

“You’re working hard again today, aren’t you?”

“… Eh?”

I turned around, stunned. The one who approached me was Shirayuki.

I wondered why she was here and I felt at a loss for words.

“You’re sweating a lot. Here, hydrate yourself?”

“O-oh…”

So I took a can of orange juice from her.
