Chapter 250. [Lazy Girlfriend]
《Hey, Ogu. Wake up. Wake up now. Get up immediately!》
Just leaving home for about a week, how did things end up like this!?
I shook Angu Ogu, buried in my underwear, vigorously.
Being tired from recording or whatever excuses there might be, none matters now.
I need to explain this situation.
《Ugh, just 5 more minutes, please》
《Can’t you wait a little longer!》
《Hehehe~. I know, I know. Today, too, Iroha loves me too much〜》
《Hey, idiot, what are you half-asleep about》
And then, as if the alarm function kicked in, the smartphone started vibrating.
It seems like there was some determination to come to wake me up, or so I thought.
《Wait, huh!?》
[It’s morning~, Ogu]
[Come on. Hurry up and get up]
[If you don’t wake up, I’ll play a prank on you, okay?]
[―――Does this feel good?]
[—N-No, stop it. Not anymore!]
[─Ogu, I love you… chuu]
What I heard wasn’t the sound of my alarm clock.
It was edited and cut, embarrassing lines I was made to say during the livestream.
《W-Wake up already!》
《What the heck!?》
Angu Ogu jerked as if startled, her body trembling.
Rubbing her sleepy eyes, she looked around, finally focusing on me.
《Huh? Ah, huh? Iroha? Really!?》
《That’s right. It’s really me》
《Huh!?》
Angu Ogu snatched the smartphone and tapped the screen.
The voice I had been hearing all this time? It’s finally stopped.
Silence enveloped the room like the calm before a storm.
She sweated profusely, her eyes wandering, then she forced a smile.
《Umm, there’s pizza. Want some?》
《You’re terrible at hiding it!》
《It’s not what you think, Iroha! I didn’t make this alarm sound. It was a fan!》
《It’s not just about the voice! Why are you buried in my underwear?》
《…Oh no!? I-I mean, this is… um, yeah. It’s from when I was doing laundry》
《Hmm. Only my underwear? I wasn’t even home?》
《Th-That’s because. That’s right! I ran out of mine while doing laundry, so I borrowed yours, Iroha!》
《Borrowed? Did you borrow someone else’s underwear?》
《Umm, well!?》
《And in just a week, there’s this many? Only underwear?》
《W-Well, you see…》
And above all else…
I’ll put an end to Anngu Ogu’s pathetic excuses.
I wanted to point this out for a long time, but…
《─Ogu, wrapping yourself “naked” in my underwear, is that your fetish?》
《…Huh?》
I pointed it out somewhat discreetly.
Angu Ogu, who had risen from the pile of underwear with a groan, was inexplicably naked.
《Eeeeek!? Iroha, you pervert!》
《Who’s the one saying perverted things!?》
Angu Ogu screamed and hid behind the giant ‘Translator Girl Iroha’ plushie.
Apparently, she fell asleep hugging it.
Is that for real, I wonder?
Well, I also have a plushie of my oshi. It’s complicated, but I’ll let it slide.
《We’re always naked together in the bath, so what’s the big deal now?》
《That’s different! You lack sensitivity!》
《Who’s lacking sensitivity? Look up the meaning of sensitivity again!》
By the way, “sensitivity” originally meant ‘delicacy’, you know.
That’s just a linguistic cheat, due to translation constraints.
《Geez, why all this fuss? Were you feeling lonely or something?》
《N-N-No way! Th-That’s not it at all》
Anngu Ogu blushed and buried her face in the plushie.
Hmm, hit the nail on the head, maybe?
《It was just a week, right? Until now, you’ve been living alone all this time, right?》
《Shut up, shut up! It’s all Iroha’s fault! It became natural for me to be with you》
《…Hmm?》
I felt a bit embarrassed myself and looked away.
Ugh, does she realize it?
I’m going back to Japan in six months.
Naturally, I’ll return to my parents’ house, and we won’t live together anymore.
《Ah~. I’m late, but I’m back, Ogu》
《Yeah. Welcome back》
We looked at each other and smiled.
Well, anyway…
《Even if it sounds like a good story, whether I forgive you or not is a different matter, you know?》
《Iroha, you demon! Devil! Gremlin!》
《The last one is actually a compliment?》
Generally speaking, in VTuber terms, it’s almost like a synonym for ‘cute’.
Rather than being called a tomboy or a brat, it’s more fitting for Angu Ogu than for me.
《Put on some clothes for now. Let’s clean up the room》
Looking around the room, it was quite messy.
Or rather, it’s more accurate to say it’s laziness.
I’ve been relying on my mom’s help at home, so doing chores feels strange.
Oh well, I was reminded of the blessing of being home.
《Ogu, were you just eating pizza all this time!? Wait, how old is this? It’s all dried up!?》
《Uh, maybe two days ago?》
《Did you eat pizza in the bath!? It feels slimy, and there’s a pizza smell!?》
《I-I accidentally dipped it in the bathtub》
《Consider this an additional scolding》
《Ughh!?》
I made Anngu Ogu clean up what she messed up herself…
And then――.
***
《Well then, Ogu, I’m off!》
My high school life in America has finally begun――!
