Tokyo landlord: why is the panties of the lady next door in my house?!-Chapter 385 - 236: Xiao ll’s Monologue. _2
"Why? No, why are you in such a hurry, Hoshina?"
Misaki Saki tilted her head, her face filled with innocent naivety as she spoke.
At that moment, in the delinquent girl’s eyes, that smile, like that of a little devil’s presence, hardly thinking, Arisugawa Hoshina blurted out, "No means no."
"Huh? Hoshina, you couldn’t possibly have a crush on Haruka, could you? Why else would you be so nervous?" Misaki Saki stepped closer, rubbing her little bottom against those smooth, delicate thighs,

"If you like Haruka too, then I could choose to help you!"
"I, I definitely don’t like that jerk!"
The pace of the conversation was completely controlled by Misaki Saki and, for a moment, Arisugawa Hoshina was caught off guard, her rosy cheeks visibly blushing at a rate visible to the naked eye, turning her adorably cute under the sunlight.
"If you don’t like Haruka, then why are you in such a hurry?"
"I, I’m not in a hurry!"
"Oh, Hoshina, you really are terrible at lying. You could at least try not to blush..." Feeling in complete control, Misaki Saki smugly raised an eyebrow, "Hoshina, just be honest with me, don’t worry, I won’t tell, promise!!"
Feeling that the moment was ripe, the little one firmly patted her flat chest, speaking earnestly.
"And what about you, Misaki?"
"Huh? What about me?"
"Don’t you like Haruka?"
Falling for the little combo and starting to falter, Arisugawa Hoshina began her own self-destructive rant, "Don’t talk about me, do you like Haruka or not? Otherwise, why would you talk about those things with me, and, and you’ve already done that, that something with Haruka."
"You, you, you, you, you, you, you’re talking nonsense!"
As the situation spun out of control, Misaki Saki retreated again and again, her innocent, lovely little face instantly flushing, her clear eyes gradually misting over, looking incredibly cute,
"Hoshina, you can’t just say things like that. Who, who would like that guy!"
"Then why did you do that, and want to drag me into it?"
Arisugawa Hoshina took a deep breath, now coming to her senses, recalling all her past experiences, whether it was kissing Haruka Yuzan or giving Haruka Yuzan...

It seemed Misaki Saki was the one who initiated it, and in the end, she even coached her on the spot, hey, hey, hey, with that familiarity, you seem to be the most problematic one!!
"So, you don’t like Haruka? Since you don’t, then please explain what happened before?"
"That, that’s because..."
"Because of what?"
Facing the delinquent’s relentless questioning, Misaki Saki, with her little head spinning fast, felt smoke starting to come out of her head.
Yeah, do I like Haruka?
Is that emotion, love? But why, when Haruka is with other girls, is there no ripple in my heart? In fact, I even think about helping out.
But, if I don’t like Haruka, then what about my body?
To find inspiration through first-hand experience?
Maybe in the beginning, I could use that excuse to deceive myself, but as time passed slowly...
It seems, it seems... it seems that as long as Haruka Yuzan is happy, my mood also becomes better.
The little one, who had been in a daze, felt her insides become chaotic after Arisugawa Hoshina pointed it out.
It seemed she had never seen through her own heart...
"Tha, that, don’t take it to heart, Misaki, I was just saying it off the cuff."
Seeing the little one’s demeanor, Arisugawa Hoshina started to feel a bit embarrassed herself.
The atmosphere grew somewhat silent, a breeze picked up the bedsheet, creating a barrier between the two, and Misaki Saki lifted her head, her beautiful little face showing a seriousness seldom seen,
"I know now, Hoshina, I think I like Haruka."
"I was saying it’s nothing... huh?!!"
Arisugawa Hoshina clearly hadn’t anticipated the little one’s reply, her little face etched with shock and even some disbelief at her own ears, "Misaki, what did you just say?"
It was just a casual question, why did you take it so seriously?!
"I said, I like Haruka!"
Misaki Saki held her little head up, a naive and innocent smile on her face, like a lily in bloom, pure, endearing, and filled with the utmost fervent sincerity,
"To like, of course, I must speak out!"
"You....."
For a moment, Arisugawa Hoshina felt that compared to the frank little one, her own love seemed so insignificant... When you like someone, why hesitate?
Misaki Saki thought for a bit, as if that brief instant just now lasted very long, many things were only missing an opportunity for thought, and with a little reflection, the deepest thoughts in her heart would surface spontaneously,
"However, I’m different from you all!"
As she spoke, the little one shook her head, "I’m an orphan, I was always bullied in class because of my height and looks, and gradually I learned to disguise and shut myself away because no one was ever kind to me."
"I got into university, but I didn’t go, choosing to be a shut-in instead, probably because I felt that going to college wouldn’t change anything, and I’d still have to engage in meaningless social activities."
"You could say it was a way to conserve energy... I had thought life could continue that way forever, then one day, when I was lying flat in bed, I suddenly wanted to come to Tokyo to see it, thinking that one can’t just leave their butt print on a small sofa for their entire life, at the least, shouldn’t I change the place?"
As she spoke, a sweet smile involuntarily appeared on Misaki Saki’s face, she sniffed slightly as if she could smell a scent of happiness in the air,
"Then, I came here, met Sister Reiko, met Roast Meat, met Shimizu, met you, and as for Haruka Yuzan, well... we used to be online friends, right?"
"After coming to the villa, my life really changed a lot, all those things that happened, the details, for the first time, the first time I felt the taste of home here, and people’s concern for me, do you know? Not long ago, I went to the cinema with Haruka Yuzan to watch the first movie of my life!"
"I’ve never asked for much, so, I just want... I just want to make Haruka and Sister Reiko happy, to maintain this little home, that’s all, to let me keep living here, Haruka is really nice, although he’s a bit of a scumbag, but his care, how many people can do that? Anyway... I like..."
Having said that, Misaki Saki paused to think, then added, "Hmm, I’ve talked a bit too much, little Hoshina, you can just think I’m sick! Indeed, some things need to be kept in the heart..."
Watching the little person talk away in front of her, Arisugawa Hoshina sank into thought, everyone who came here had a piece of memory deep in their hearts that they did not want to unravel after being sealed for so long.
Compared to Misaki, her own past felt a lot lighter, at the least, at school, she was the one bullying others, and at home, she had a mother and a sister who loved her.
Looking through Misaki Saki’s clear eyes, an image involuntarily appeared in her mind.
The sun setting in the west, the twilight filled the little home carefully arranged by the girl, a painting easel, a little person, sitting there quietly, the lonely shadow stretched long and long, until the sky turned completely dim.
Vulnerable, helpless, and... pitiful.
Even if you like someone, do you have to humiliate yourself by sharing it just to stay by the one you admire?
Sometimes, love is just not fair...
