      by im here to enjoy "K-Kageyama-kun!? Are you okay!?" (Hikaru) "I-I'm fine...! Just a little surprised..." (Reiya) Waving off the concerned Asahi-san beside me, I swallowed the soba. I never expected to be gouged from that angle. "...So, how about it? Are you dating?" (Ayaka) "No way, no way, no way! Me and Asahi-san!? Impossible!!" (Reiya) "Then why did you come all the way out here to hang out, just the two of you? What's this common point you mentioned earlier?" (Ayaka) "Uhm... Well..." (Reiya) I…

      by im here to enjoy "Ah, Ayaka...?" (Hikaru) "H-Hino-san...?" (Reiya) As we both called her name in unison, her gaze, almost a glare, fixed on us, causing our bodies to stiffen. 'Why is Hino-san here...?' 'Didn't Asahi-san just say she wasn't the type to come to arcades?' 'Is she secretly a fan of cute things, here to try for a prize plushie?' 'No, the bag she's holding is from the nearby bookstore...' 'Come to think of it, I heard that place has a good selection of reference books.' 'Going out of her…

      by im here to enjoy Walking for about two minutes from the front of the store, we arrived at our destination, the arcade. I'd heard the industry had been struggling for a while, but perhaps because it was the evening of a long holiday weekend, it was bustling with a large number of customers. "Ooh... This is a pretty serious arcade!" (Hikaru) Being part of a major chain, it had numerous types of arcade cabinets lined up. Near the entrance were the prize corner and photo sticker booths meant to attract customers,…

      by im here to enjoy "A gaming cushion...?" (Reiya) "Yeah, apparently it's the optimal cushion for gaming, something about ergonomics. Look... if you do this, you can lean back while also having an armrest in front!" (Hikaru) She demonstrated right in front of me, perhaps having tried it out while I was watching the demo earlier. She looked like she was having a lot of fun. "S-Sounds good, doesn't it? You can use that at home, too." (Reiya) 'What kind of bandwagon product is this?' I thought, but since she…

      by im here to enjoy The night passed, and the day finally arrived. I got into bed before 1 AM last night, but I was so nervous I couldn't fall asleep easily. I finally lost consciousness around 3 AM and woke up just before 8 AM, meaning I hadn't even gotten five hours of sleep. Our meeting time was 3 PM, so I tried to get a little more sleep, but even though I wasn't physically recovered, my eyes were wide awake, making it impossible. In the end, I spent the time until noon playing games randomly, facing the…

      by im here to enjoy "Are you okay? Maybe you suddenly started feeling unwell?" (Ichiru) Perhaps worried about Taiju-san, who still hadn't come inside, Ichiru-san also approached. "No!! I'm fine!! No problem at all!!" (Taiju)"O-Oh… well, that's good… Please, have a seat." (Ichiru)"Yes!! Excuse me!!" (Taiju) With jerky movements, like a machine needing oil, Taiju-san moved to a seat in the back.Asahi-san, perhaps sensing her brother's strangeness, wore an awkward expression. "Hey, Onii-chan… This is…

      by im here to enjoy Asahi-san's older brother. His existence had certainly been mentioned in a previous conversation. However, I also recalled hearing online from people who monitor voice actors and Vtubers around Christmas that "older brother" or "younger brother" can be code words for "boyfriend." "And this is my classmate, Kageyama-kun. Did I mention him before? My gaming friend." (Hikaru)"Ah, so this is him…" (Taiju) Now Asahi-san introduced me to her older brother. She tells this person about her…

      Vol. 1 Chapter 13 – Random Encounter Event Cover
      by im here to enjoy —The day after I made plans to go out with Asahi-san, Sunday afternoon. I was diligently working at my part-time job at the Western-style restaurant 'Mizumoritei'. It's a small place with only a few counter seats and four tables that seat four each. Although it was the middle of the long holiday weekend, even with a full house, it wasn't overwhelmingly busy. As usual, I guided customers to their seats, took orders, carried dishes, and handled payments. When I first started helping out in…

      by im here to enjoy "…Eh?" (Hikaru) In front of me, Asahi-san made a face like she'd been shot by a pea shooter.Seeing that dumbfounded expression, I felt the impact of my attack land for the first time. "Well… actually, I was thinking of going to buy a new mouse… and then I thought maybe you might be interested in gaming-type devices or something… N-No! Forget I just said—" (Reiya)"I can make time the day after tomorrow." (Hikaru)"…Heh?" (Reiya) This time, it was my turn to make a sound like I'd been…

      by im here to enjoy Today marked exactly two weeks since Asahi-san started coming over to my room on weekends. On this, her third visit, we were playing SEKIHYO again at her eager request. The crisp sounds of swordplay echoed through the eight-mat studio apartment. Today, she showed no large reactions; her gaze was glued to the screen. I could feel her strong determination to absolutely conquer the remaining half of the story, which she had cleared halfway during her first visit, within the day. Fueled by that…
