Forever and Always, My Childhood Friend is the Cutest Girl in the World Chapter 33: In my Room with my Childhood Friend

Chapter 33: In my Room with my Childhood Friend Link to Original Chapter:  https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5894gb/33/ "And here we are, probably the most unique room in the house."  "You can just be honest and say it's a filthy room."  Rin gives me a harsh retort as I tidy up my room a bit. Rin came over on such short notice, that I didn't really have to prepare. Because of that, my room looks like any typical male student's room. That being said, it isn't that dirty where every square inch of the floor is covered, so it didn't take too long to tidy up.  "It really hasn't changed at all."  Rin sits down on my bed and looks around. She's looking at all the toys we used to play with when we were kids.  "Well yeah, there really isn't much to change up to be honest."  I'm not in any sports nor do I have any other hobbies, which is why my room is pretty plain looking. There’s really only one spot in...

And Rin too!?"  The echoes of Karen's shocked voice reverberate around the house.  "It's been a long time Karen-chan."  Rin bows her head down courteously.  "Ahh! I haven't seen you in forever Rin!"  Like some kid greeting a costumed character at a theme park, Karen all the way to Rin and hugs her.  "How long has it been?"  "I think it's been about three years since I last saw you."  "It's been that long?! You seem so mature Rin."  "You've grown a lot too Karen."  "Hahaha, I'm in my growing period now."  I can feel myself being enveloped in a weird sense of nostalgia looking at Rin and Karen go back and forth with each other. In middle school, Rin used to come to my house a lot ...

I can feel the gravity of Rin's question as I poke around my bento with my chopsticks.  "No I haven't, you think I have?"  Her reaction feels just like someone questioning their coworkers over who ate the pudding they put in the work fridge. She stares at me, not letting me escape as she continues on.  "When did you go to bed and when did you wake up?"  "Went to bed at 9 and woke up at 5..."  "Seems like something a super disciplined honors student would do."  "Well, there is one person in our grade who fits that description perfectly."  "But Tohru-kun isn't that great at all."  "Because I walk around naked all the time?"  "Hmm, let's see... you...

If your story ends up popular here, you can get published too!"  "Th-that's awesome."  "Of course it is! Maple Satou also started out on Syosetu too! I guess this is the path I have to take."  I hadn't even submitted a story, yet I could already feel so much tension. Posting a story on Syosetu and it becoming popular enough...

Forever and Always, My Childhood Friend is the Cutest Girl in the World Chapter 29: My Sister and my New Story

Chapter 29: My Sister and my New Story Link to Original Chapter:  https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5894gb/29/ "Alright, got it updated."  It's Wednesday morning and in my living room updating my story like I normally do. I top it off with my usual black coffee.  "Good job Onii."  Karen's munching on a toasted sandwich as she says that to me. And as usual, our banter begins.  "Fuu...."  "What's wrong Onii? You seem less perky than usual."  "Really? I don't really think I'm acting that different."  "You aren't saying your usual gross statements today."  "So your only basis on my mental state is how many gross comments I make?"  Well, Karen does have a point. Since the beginning of this week, I've been heavily sleep deprived.  "Well, I’ve been updating my story more frequently now. I've been staying up late too."  Up until now, I've updated once eve...

Forever and Always, My Childhood Friend is the Cutest Girl in the World Chapter 28: Staying up Late with my Childhood Friend

Chapter 28: Staying up Late with my Childhood Friend Link to Original Chapter:  https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5894gb/28/ "Alright, here."  "O-oh, thanks."  It's lunchtime and as usual I'm in the multi-purpose classroom eating Rin's homemade bento. However, compared to all the other times, I feel more tense.  "Why is your voice so shrill today?"  "You can sense that?"  "Well yeah, I'm your childhood friend after all."  Having said that, Rin snuggles her body right up against my left arm. She's doing it like it's the most natural thing in the world.  ...  Yep, that's why my voice is so shrill today. The distance Rin is putting between us is basically zero. Last week, there was a fist length distance between us, but now...  "Something wrong?"  "No..."  Rin is giving me a look as if she's telling me she's doing nothing wrong. I am at a loss for words.
