Tsuki Tsuki Vol 12 Prologue

Prologue

“—The truth is, I cut all my ties with the Gogyou Household.”

She seemed to have gotten permission from my mother and said something weird like “From today on, I will live in this room. Your roommate.”, then she spoke out the earlier sentence, which made me a bit perplexed.

“You cut your ties with them… Just what happened? Is this one of your usual—”

“To illustrate it with the words of literature, my cell phone is writhing it’s body in agony and raising a lovely voice.”

Indifferent to my weary retort, Kaorun pressed her cell phone against her ear to answer the call.

As soon as she answered the call, she put on a affected tone and enumerated insults.

Knitting her eyebrows displeased, Kaorun hung up animated. It was quite the snappy reply. A bit curious, I shifted my gaze to her cell phone.

“A light masochists with the nickname of Shuu-kun. To my sorrow, you can also call him the eldest son of the Gogyou Household.”

The eldest son of the Gogyou Household aka Shuu-kun. His full name was Gogyou Shuugo. The brother of my precious friend Gogyou Hijiri. Incidentally, it was my first time hearing about him being a light masochist, but I met him numerous times in the Dojo of the Gogyou Mansion, since I was receiving my exorcist training there.

“It is not something that petty. Shuu-kun and I are currently at war.”

Going with the mood, I spoke out what was on my mind, whereupon Kaorun unexpected nodded firmly and replied.

“…Stop ruining the image of your brother.”

“Could it be, the call just now was a SOS from Shuu-kun…”

“Why happily? It’s a family meeting, right? What’s good about that?”

“Hey, forget about light, that’s a serious case of masochism! Actually, what do you mean he came up with the contents? What kind of fight are you two having?”

“Okay, here is a question, Shinobu-sama. What part of my story was a lie?”

“Unfortunately that was true.”

“Incidentally, the lied part was about Shuu-kun and me being at war. We are merely pretending to have a fight. I believe, his call was meant to report me that everything was going according to the plan.”

“It is not a prank this time. Technically, I am still the maid of the Gogyou Household, so I might take off a day or two, but I needed some kind of reason for a longer leave from my duties.”

“Truth be told, I had the desire to stay at your house again for a while now, Shinobu-sama, so I consulted with Hijiri-chan and Shuu-kun. In exchange for their cooperation, I gave Hijiri-chan my personal photo collection of you, and Shuu-kun an erotic game that I purchased online.”

“I wonder about that.”

“You see, Shuu-kun was messing around by saying: ‘Then let’s tell them you have a fight with me. I’ll trick Mom and Dad properly, so go and have fun. Also, I’m not doing this for you, Kaoru. I just want the erotic game. Don’t get the wrong idea’.”

“She was having delusion on the likes of ‘Hah, Hah, I want to go to Shinobu-kun’s house with you. I want to do perverted things to him by being a bit forceful, even though it’s embarrassing, then enjoy a morning coffee with him at dawn’.”

“Please wait a second, Shinobu-sama! If you do that, Hijiri-chan will end up crying!”

“But you didn’t leave the house just for fun, did you? You even went so far as to pretend that you cut your ties with them. You must have some kind of objective here?”

“…Shinobu-sama, do you remember that time?”

“A bit before Christmas. Shinobu-sama, Elni-san, Hijiri-chan and myself, the four of us climbed the mountain and stargaze on top of it. Back then, Elni-san presented that wonderful place to Hijiri-chan and myself, remember?”

Remembering the earlier event from her words, I interjected softly.

If I remembered correctly, Kaorun mentioned something about the newly hired maid arriving at their house soon when we were out stargazing together. So that Kaorun could concentrate on her studies for the university exams, Hijiri’s father Sougo-san decided to hire a new maid for the Gogyou Household. Kaorun seemed to be concerned about her and had asked me for advice during the winter vacation before.

“It’s just a guess, but is the new maid related to you coming over here?”

“…Luna and the others?”

“One thing has always been on my mind. I came here to find the answer to it. If I stay here and watch Luna-san and the others, I am sure that I will come to understand something.”

“it might cause you inconveniences, but would you allow me to remain here for a while?”

Most likely Kaorun was worrying about various things in her own way. To be honest, I didn’t get the whole picture. But I would just have to wait for her to tell me. To begin with, my answer was obvious from the beginning, even without her question.

“You can stay here as long as you like. If anything’s up, come to me without any reservations. But, kind of in exchange— I have one condition.”

“Yeah, I demand your body— as if! I’m being serious here, so stop your jokes. I won’t give such a condition even by mistakes, so be at ease.”

Her earlier serious expression vanished to somewhere. As she was getting some wrong idea, Kaorun lightly flushed her cheeks, changing her expression into a bewitching one.

Along with an erotic smile, she bended forward and started to underline her breasts with both her arms.

“Fufu, every day from now on, you will be gently serviced by this young lady.”

“…It is about time that I greet the others, but since you are so mean to me, Shinobu-sama, I really will not pay you a night visit anymore. Do not come crying to me afterwards, you hear? No more perverted services. Just…”

“If your love for me becomes unbearable, please come over to room to play anytime. Then… I am willing to give you plenty of service, you know?”

The perverted maid of the Gogyou Household aka Kaorun. Of course I didn’t hate her. But since she loved playing pranks, it was quite possible that she would do something unbelievable again. From now on, things might become more fun… no, more noisy and troublesome.
Even with a bad feeling like that, I couldn’t stop my cheeks from forming a faint smile.
