It turns out that my Yandere playmate online is my Homeroom Teacher-Chapter 31: Nightly hella part 3
Shiori’s POV
Haru-kun grabbed my hand, as casual as how he called my name.
He didn’t call me Shiori-san! Does that mean he wants to imply that I’m his property?!
[Trivia: The "-san" honorific in Japan originated from the "-sama" honorific back in the shogunate era. They realized that "-sama" was way too formal, so they revised it as "-san," which functions mainly to show respect to a person you don’t own (e.g., non-family members, etc.).
Why does the author know this? Because my waifu is Japanese!]
If he’s like this, there’s no way my heart would reject him!
As we left the house, Mom waved at us happily.
"Take care of my son, Shiori-san."
That’s the total opposite of Marika. She was staring at me so sharply that I was convinced she could cut diamonds with her eyes.
Uh, Haru-kun is still holding my hand. Does he plan to walk like this until we reach my apartment?
"By the way, Shiori-san... I didn’t say it earlier."
Finally! He spoke! But he sounds quite serious...
"Hm? What’s the matter?"
"Yuna... is actually Neko-chan. She said she developed feelings for me because of my livestream."
WHAT?!
Haru’s POV
Uh, I have a feeling I shouldn’t have said that.
But keeping it a secret makes me feel guilty.
I thought Shiori-san would be upset, but she just replied.
"Oh, is that so? Don’t worry, Haru-kun. I’ve already moved on from being jealous of that Neko-chan."
"Thanks, Shiori-san!"
She smiled at me and added,
"But if you don’t stop that livestream, I’ll be mad, okay? I don’t need any gifts—just spend Christmas with me, and that’s enough."
WHAT’S THIS?!
Her usual yandere self is disappearing slowly!
Yeah, her demanding that I stop livestreaming is totally something a yandere would do... but...
Why isn’t she being violent?!
At this moment, she should be wall-slamming me, gripping my hands, or at least joking about some lewd stuff!
Not that I want the scene "Step on me, Shiori-sensei," but this is clearly weird... and she’s been acting like this since earlier.
I should talk to Shiori-san, or else she might lose her usual self!
And if she’s not a yandere anymore, this book should change its damn long name!
"Haru-kun? Pay attention to the road, okay? I don’t know what’s on your mind, but you can talk to me..."
"Uh, sorry, Shiori-san! Yeah, let’s talk when we get back to your apartment..."
Good thing she was the one who initiated it.
Shiori’s POV
As we entered my apartment, the scent of the dish I had prepared earlier welcomed us.
Good thing I had already set the dinner on the table before I left. Now Haru-kun must be amazed by my cooking skills!
Don’t think I’m stupid, though. Of course, I covered it.
"Haru-kun? Here’s dinner. Would you like to talk while we eat?"
"Uh, yeah. Itadakimasu."
He sat down, and we started eating.
His smile as he chewed the food I cooked made me so happy!
"Is it delicious, Haru-kun?"
"Yeah, thankfully, you’re so good at cooking! Compared to mine..."
"Hehe, don’t mind it, Haru-kun. Do you want some juice?"
He nodded, and I quickly went to the fridge to get him a canned juice—and, of course, I grabbed a beer for myself.
"Here, Haru-kun! I can’t wait until you’re of legal drinking age so we can drink together!"
Good thing the legal age for adulthood isn’t the same as the legal age for alcohol intake.
[Trivia again: 18 is the legal age in Japan, but the alcohol intake age is 20. As for why? Originally, the legal age in Japan was 20 since the Meiji era—around 1868 or something. It was only lowered to 18 in 2022, so yeah, let’s just say society is still used to 20 being the drinking age.
P.S. Although the age of consent is 13, we ain’t doing minor segs here, brotha!]
"By the way, Haru-kun, what’s the matter from earlier?"
"Shiori-san... I just noticed that... you haven’t been acting like your usual self."
"Eh? What do you mean?"
He put down his chopsticks and responded.
"Since you came from our house... you’ve been acting weird. Did something happen between you and Aunt Marika?"
WHAT?! HE NOTICED?! Although his deduction is wrong...
I can’t afford to reveal that I’m acting like this because I’m damn thirsty! That’s so embarrassing!
"I’m not acting weird, though..."
"But Shiori-san, you’re not, uh, yandere-like before. When I told you about Yuna earlier, I expected you to snap at me."
I’m not yandere, though... wait.
Is Haru-kun the type who wants to get punished?!
I need to play along. But how does a yandere act?
Should I follow that wife character from the doujin manga I read?
Oh, I’m feeling a little dizzy.
Haru’s POV
It was hard, but I said it!
Shiori-san paused for a while to think, and then she replied.
"So you noticed, huh... Well, to be honest, I was really frustrated when I saw Yuna confess."
I knew it. There’s no way she’d just accept that, right? She’s a yandere, after all.
"But Shiori-san, just forget about that, okay? I love you as much as I love my family."
She just stared at me while casually drinking her canned beer and eating her food, and I continued eating.
But as soon as we finished...
"Thanks for the food!"
She suddenly came beside me and put her hand on my shoulder.
She whispered directly into my ear...
"Hey, Haru-kun... remember the time when I compensated you because I was the reason you didn’t finish your assignment?"
AH! SHE’S TICKLING ME!
"Uh, yeah... what about it?"
Then, she pushed me onto the floor, sat on top of me, and covered my mouth with one of her fingers.
"Shhh, don’t scream, or you’ll disturb the neighbors~"
THIS IS BAD. SHIORI-SAN IS DRUNK!
"You made me so sad earlier, Haru-kun, so I think I need some compensation, no?"
"Shiori-san?! I’ll do anything you want, but please let me do my assignments first!"
She’s way too strong!
This is bad.
Is this the night... where I take a step into adulthood?!
"Don’t worry about your assignments, Haru-kun, because I’m going to punish you so hard that you won’t be able to attend class tomorrow~"
