I Refuse to Become Scumbag in Tokyo

Chapter 373: End of Golden Week

“I’m a scumbag.”

His voice was clear and deep, telling everyone that he was a scumbag.

It was their first time to see this kind of scene, and somehow it was kind of refreshing.

Even Sayaka rubbed her temple and said helplessly, “It’s my first time to hear a scumbag to admit that he’s a scumbag.”

Yes.

Sayaka and Mayumi had seen many scumbags in their lives, but it was their first time seeing someone admit that he was a scumbag so openly.

After all, even if one was a scumbag, no one would admit it so openly like Shishio.

Even Mitaka also didn’t say anything like he was a scumbag or something since he didn’t think that he was one.

“…Er, do you know that Mashiro?” Mayumi asked.

“Um.” Shiina nodded simply.

“…” Everyone.

“Okay. Is it just like this? Over?” Mayumi was speechless.

“What do you want me to do?” Shishio looked at Mayumi and said, “I have admitted that I am a scumbag, that’s all. Nothing has changed, so let’s just eat dinner.”

“….” Everyone.

“Wait a moment.” Chihiro looked at Shishio and asked, “So your girlfriend, the delinquent one…”

“It’s Saki,” Shishio reminded Chihiro.

“Okay, Saki.” Chihiro let out a long sigh and asked, “She knows that you date Mashiro too?”

“Yes.” Shishio nodded.

“Mashiro, are you okay with that?” Chihiro asked.

“Okay.” Shiina nodded simply since she had talked about this conversation with Shishio several times in the past, and she was okay to share him with other girls.

“…..”

Chihiro looked at Shishio in a complicated way, wondering whether his reason to tell everyone that he was a scumbag was so he could lessen her guilty feeling after she had kissed him before.

“Um, Shishio, you’re a scumbag?” Misaki asked curiously.

“Yes, Senpai.” Shishio nodded.

“What kind of scumbag?” Misaki asked since there were many types of scumbags.

“The one that dates many girls at the same time,” Shishio said.

“So, how many girls do you date?” Misaki asked.

“….” Everyone was in silence, and they looked at him curiously.

“Five,” Shishio said.

“….” Everyone.

‘Five…’

They somehow became curious about those five girls that Shishio had dated and wondered what kind of girls they were. They had seen a girl with a spunky personality, Kawasaki Saki, and an alien-like girl, Shiina Mashiro.

So what about the other three?

They became curious somehow.

“How about the other three? Did you date them secretly, or do they know each other?” Sayaka asked curiously. While she must admit that she was interested in Shishio, she knew that she didn’t have a chance, and unlike the other girls, she didn’t want to be trapped by his charm. Also, while she didn’t say it, she felt inferior, considering her actual appearance wasn’t beautiful. Everything was part of her make-up.

“Why do you want to know?” Shishio asked with a frown.

“Isn’t it fine? You have told us that you’re a scumbag, so just tell us the rest, alright?” Sayaka said coquettishly.

“Well, they know each other,” Shishio said truthfully.

“How did you do that?” Mayumi was dumbfounded.

“Okay, enough.” Shishio let out a sigh and said, “I have told you this because we’re living in the same place together, and I know that sooner or later, you’ll know about it. However, if you ask me whether I want to talk about this matter or not, then I don’t want to since it is definitely isn’t something to be proud of for the girls.” While some people wanted to be proud, telling the world that they had dated many girls at the same time, he wasn’t that type of person, and it was better to keep everything private.

Being low-key was the best thing.

“You know that it isn’t something to be proud of, but you still do it?” Chihiro asked with a frown.

“I know, but since it has happened, I don’t regret it. Instead of talking about why I do this, judging me whether I’m right or wrong, I just want to tell everyone that while I can’t promise that I can make them happy all the time, I won’t hurt them,” Shishio said calmly.

Chihiro felt conflicted, then looked at Shiina. “Mashiro, is that okay with you?”

“It’s okay. I trust Shishio.” Shiina was calm and said, “And I love him.”

Chihiro let out a long tired sigh and said, “While I want to say that you’re wrong, and you should stop, it isn’t my place to say anything about your relationship, and as long as you feel happy with it, then I won’t say much, but remember your promise not to hurt them.” She wanted to smoke, but she didn’t bring a cigarette, so she could only drink alcohol to numb her mind.

“I know.” Shishio nodded while looking at Chihiro, who drank a beer in a gulp. “Thanks, Chihiro-nee.”

“I never said that I agreed with your relationship,” Chihiro said with a pout.

“But even so, thank you,” Shishio said sincerely.

Chihiro looked at Shishio for a moment and let out a long sigh, somehow understanding how those girls could date him at the same time.

“So that’s it? Nothing else? Just like this, and we’re done with this conversation?” Mayumi asked.

“………” Everyone.

“What do you want me to say? Do you want me to date you too?” Shishio asked with a speechless expression, but he regretted saying those words.

“Now, you’re finally showing your fangs! I know that you’re interested in my body! You can’t fool me, Shishio!” Mayumi quickly protected her boobs as she slandered Shishio.

“………”

Shishio rolled his eyes and ignored this idiotic woman. While he must admit that he was lustful against Mayumi’s body, he wasn’t stupid enough to admit it. “By the way, I have made pudding. Mayumi-san doesn’t need one, it seems, so who wants to take her pudding?”

“Me!”

Everyone raised their hands at the same time.

“Wa-Wait! I also want my pudding!” Mayumi quickly protested.

This was how Sakurasou was, everyone was noisy, but it was strangely comfortable.

However, among them, there was a single scumbag that had admitted he was one, and frankly, could his problem be solved like this so easily?

Still, they also understood that it wasn’t their problem, and even if they were close to each other, it didn’t mean that they could judge each other with their point of view.

All they could do was only one thing, and that was to watch over them and support them if they had a problem.

Still, they might have only realized but had Shishio and Shiina done that?

—

School starts tomorrow, and Golden Week has ended.

The happy time would end shortly, but Shishio forgot to bring Ritsu to the Jimbochou, but when he thought about their awkward relationship, he felt that it was better not to do anything weird for now.

Shishio knew that he was too flirty, but that was how his personality was, and if one misunderstood him, there was nothing that he could do, especially if they gave their bodies to him. However, he started to wonder whether this was really alright.

Shishio was resting on his bed with Shiina lying on his arm lazily. He caressed her hair gently and asked, “Is this okay with you, Mashiro?”

“Hmm?” Shiina looked at Shihio with a confused expression.

“I mean, to announce our relationship,” Shihsio said.

“It’s okay.” Shiina rubbed her face and said, “I’m happy with it.” She might not care whether Shishio announced their relationship or not, but it felt nice when she was acknowledged like this.

“That’s good. I’d thought that you hate it,” Shishio said, but suddenly he saw Shiina appear in front of him. “Mashiro?”

“I don’t hate Shishio. I love Shishio,” Shiina said without wavering as her clear eyes stared into his.

“Thanks.” Shishio caressed Shiina’s head and said, “I love you too, Mashiro.”

Shiina smiled and rubbed her face again on his face.

Shishio also rubbed his face against her, but then there was something that he needed to say, “By the way, is your manga is done now?”

“Um.” Shiina nodded and said, “I have drawn two chapters. I need to draw one more.”

“Do you need help?” Shishio asked.

“It’s okay. It isn’t that hard,” Shiina said, then looked at Shishio and asked, “Shishio.”

“Hmm?”

“After this manga ends, will you make a story again?” Shiina asked.

“Do you want me to write a story for your manga again?” Shishio asked.

“Um.” Shiina nodded.

“…I’ll think about it.” Shishio didn’t really mind, but there were so many stories that he wasn’t sure which stories he should write.

“Thanks.”

“No problem.” Shishio smiled, but then he reminded Shiina. “However, there’s one problem now after I have announced our relationship.”

“What’s the problem?” Shiina was confused.

“We might not be able to sleep together again,” Shishio said since he could tell that if Shiina didn’t return to her room, there might be many people that might storm into his room. While he felt uncomfortable, it couldn’t be helped since no one would feel comfortable with the thought that someone they knew might have sex in the same dorm.

“…….” Shiina.

Shishio looked at Shiina’s stunned expression and thought that it had been a while since he had seen this expression.

“Why?” Shiina was confused.

“It’s a bit hard to explain, but right now, there are many people who are watching us?” Shishio said.

“Watch us?” Shiina even became confused.

“Wait here for a moment.” Shishio pulled his arm and stood up, walking toward the door. It might be because his room was soundproof that no sound was heard from the outside, and Shiina didn’t realize it, but it was different for him.

Shiina watched Shishio walk toward the door of his room and when he opened it.

“Wha—?!”

“Ouch!”

“Hey, don’t push me down!”

“It’s heavy!”

“I’m not heavy!”

“………..”

Neither Shiina nor Shishio could say anything, especially when they saw Mayumi, Misaki, and Sayaka falling to the ground, but what made him dumbfounded was that Nanami and Ritsu were also there.

Even if Shishio didn’t say anything, he knew that the five of them eavesdropped on him. He then looked at Shiina and said, “See?”

“………” Shiina.

Shishio then looked at the five people in front of him and asked, “So what were you doing?” He then noticed Roberta, who stood on the side and asked through his eyes, wondering why she let them here.

Roberta could only look at Shishio with a helpless expression since she couldn’t stop them.

Shishio also understood that there was no way that Roberta could stop them. However, he looked at Nanami, who could only look away at this moment. He thought that he needed to punish this maid of his.

“It-It’s misunderstanding, Shishio-kun!”

“Yeah, we were invited by Mayumi!”

“Everything was Mayumi’s fault!”

“How dare you put all the blame on me!” Mayumi roared, but then she looked at Shishio and asked curiously, “So did you have sex?”

“……….”

Shishio might have admitted that he was a scumbag and there was no need to hide anything, but right now, he needed to face the consequences of his action.

Shishio wondered whether he should move out now.
