Why Not Make Both Twins 'Girlfriends'?-Chapter 10Volume 1 .1 - Is This Fate...?
Is This Fate…? 1
Since the week after his date with the twin sisters, Sakuto’s mundane school life had completely changed.
He went to the cafeteria as usual during lunch break, but Chikage was there too──
“I mean, Chikage, don’t you have your own lunchbox?”
“Is it wrong for me to want to eat with my boyfriend?”
“It’s not wrong, but… didn’t you previously worry about being misunderstood by others?”
“Well, I didn’t mind being misunderstood! I was testing Sakuto-kun’s resolve!”
Chikage said this with a pout; she was irresistibly cute.
It’s like an anger without thorns──or rather, she wasn’t angry, just embarrassed.
“But we have to be careful not to be noticed by others.”
“Fufu, I have already taken measures.”
“…Like what?”
“I won’t do the ‘aah’ feeding thing. I’ll resist that.”
“No-no-no-no…”
‘That’s not what I meant’, thought Sakuto as he looked around.
Given Chikage Usami’s name value, he realized that he too was becoming noticeable.
“We do stand out…”
“It’s fine, I haven’t publicly declared that we’re dating.”
“You have a strong mentality, huh… What if someone asks if we’re dating? What will you say?”
“In that case, I’ll say, ‘Uh, um… that’s, well, a s-secret?’ “
“We’ll be found out for sure… Are you actually planning to reveal it?”
It’s not something to be said while blushing and fidgeting.
“Don’t worry too much about it. As they say, ‘A rumor lasts only seventy-five days.’ After seventy-five days, no one will be interested anymore.”
According to that logic (?), they would have to endure the stares and rumors for about two and a half months.
However, after being told by Chikage that worrying too much is not good, Sakuto, half-convinced, decided to just go with the flow.
And then, after school──
“I was waiting for you, Sakuto-kun!”
It was Hikari who suddenly grabbed his arm at the station after school, looking up at him with upturned eyes.
She was still absent from school frequently, unable to attend.
However, Sakuto had heard from Chikage that if she was wearing her uniform, it meant she intended to go to school soon.
“Hikari, you know…”
“Hey-hey, are you hungry?”
“Well, somewhat… but that’s not it, so you see…”
“I want something sweet… Now, let’s start our after-school date!”
She was as cheerful and carefree as always, but Sakuto knew that this kind of behavior often troubled Chikage.
Speaking of Chikage──
“Wait a minute, Hii-chan…”
She had been nearby all along, but she seemed unhappy with Hikari clinging to Sakuto as if to show off.
“Isn’t Hii-chan clinging too much to Sakuto-kun…?”
“Isn’t Chii-chan clinging to him too at school?”
“I am not! If someone we know sees us this close, they’ll think we’re dating, right!?”
“If it’s someone we know, we can just say it’s a ‘secret relationship’?”
“That’s a surefire way to get caught! You’re totally planning to spill it, aren’t you!?”
Sakuto wanted to throw Chikage’s words right back at her as he held his head in his hands.
However, Chikage had a point. Hikari was indeed clinging too much in public.
Would others perceive them as just close friends of the opposite sex?
“So, maybe Chii-chan should cling to him too? It looks like we’re dating because I’m the only one clinging.”
“Oh, right! That would balance things──”
“Hey, wait! Chikage, don’t agree! And Hikari, don’t lead things that way!”
In the end, Chikage also ended up grabbing Sakuto’s right arm.
However, what about this situation?
Two close twin sisters and the average guy caught between them──would this be seen as a friendly trio?
“Okay, now that we’re all together, let’s go plan our Saturday date for next week!”
“Whoa! Hikari!”
“Wait… Hii-chan!?”
Pulled by Hikari, Chikage was also dragged along.
***
They ended up at a nearby burger shop, where they planned a trip for the three of them for next Saturday.
“Wouldn’t it be a bit unsatisfying just to go to a hot spring town and only use the foot bath?”
“But if we stay overnight… Awawawawa… That’s not okay!”
“…Chikage? What are you fantasizing about…?”
“Probably Chii-chan imagining the three of us doing──”
“Hikari, please be quiet for a second…”
──Thus, Sakuto’s ordinary life changed completely like this.
It was chaotic, filled with moments of excitement and anxiety, but also soothing.
If one had to describe it in a word, it might be ‘fun.’
Of course, the fact that the three of them are dating was a secret, but the affection and behavior directed towards him by the two of them continue to escalate.
Sakuto had no choice but to accept it.
After all, these twin sisters, though seemingly adaptable, were actually quite stubborn, and together, they were a formidable pair.
Hikari and Chikage were allies, but in a sense, rivals too, and their sparks mercilessly showered down on Sakuto, who was caught in the middle.

But perhaps because they were twins──even when walking arm in arm together, they attracted envious looks, but strangely, they weren’t seen as ‘lovers.’
They are seen more as close twin sisters and a boy, and nobody actually guesses that the three were actually dating.
Pulled along by these twin sisters, Sakuto was enjoying these thrilling and heart-pounding days.
──But not everything was fun, and it’s in such moments that incidents occur.
Tuesday, June 7, a few days into the rainy season──
