He has the silky black hair and green eyes. He's dressing style looks the same.
But this can't be him, right?
"I'm so sorry. The only encounter I've had with you was when you lent me your coat. " Said Himari
The guy seemed unhappy with her response before releasing her from the pin.
"Why did he seem unhappy? Do I really know him? " Himari thought to herself.
The guy sighed laboriously and said. "I'm sorry. I thought you were someone I knew. "
He moved back and said. "My name is Jurou Murine . And I'm your roommate and the landlord. "
"Em, Murine san, you should really stop doing that. I'm dating someone, you know. "
Jurou's eyes turned surly as he heard that statement.
Himari indeed has a boyfriend.Yes, a boyfriend!
Shuji Yogi, Himari's "boyfriend". Whenever Himari was being bullied by Rin, he would magically appear like "a knight in shining armor" and save her from the evil clasps of Rin.
Sometimes, Shuji and Himari will go out together and one day he asked Himari out and they started dating.
Obviously, Jurou knew this, since he asked for a background check but he also knows the reason behind it.
Shuji has a disgusting fetish of enchanting helpless girls by saving them from their problems, then, once he has laid with them a few times, he would dump them like trash.
That's why Jurou doesn't really like Shuji, because of the way he treats girls especially beautiful girls.
Unacceptable!!
After a brief period of silence,
"Oh you're the landlord. The rent is so cheap."
He snaps out of his daze, "Yeah, of course. Once I saw it was a university student, I reduced the price."
Himari looks at Jurou with distrust. "I hope this isn't a scam. "
Jurou said in a hushed tone. "Well, I did buy the whole house for you for about 300 thousand yen. So the least you can do is pay a chicken change of 500 yen. "
"What did you say? I didn't quite hear you. "
"I said it's not a scam and you should relax." Jurou lied to Himari.
"I don't want her to think I'm a pervert." Jurou thought to himself.
"Alright, let me show you around the house." Jurou said as he took Himari's suitcase.
"Oh please don't worry about that. I'll take care of it." She takes the suitcase from Jurou.
"Just consider it an apology for what I did earlier. " Jurou takes the suitcase once more and progressed forward.
Jurou took Himari to the door of her room. "Here's your room. That's the bathroom over there. It's only one so we have to share it. Is that okay with you?. "
"Yeah, I'm cool with that."
"Great, here's your key. My room is upstairs. If you need anything, you just ask, you know my room now."
"Yeah, I will."
Jurou smiled softly then went upstairs.
"Murine san is strange. He's usually cold at school." Said Himari in a confused tone.
She unlocked her door and then jumped on her bed.
"My first apartment." She giggled softly then said. "That will reduce the rent for mom and dad. If i can get a part-time job to support them."
And just like that, Himari started living with the kind but suspicious Jurou.
One afternoon after lectures, Himari was so tired from attending to Rin all day.
"Damn, I'm so exhausted. I'm going to have a nice soak today."
Himari unlocked the door without checking the sign. When she entered, she could hear the sound of the shower.
"Huh?" She opened her eyes then shouted. "HUH? MURINE SAN?! "
It turns out that Jurou was in the shower before she came in.
Himari stood there in a haze at the sight of Jurou. His wet black hair was covering his nice green eyes, his body was decorated with rock hard abs and a magnificent Apollo belt.
However, hot steam was concealing the image of "that" place.
Tch! That damn steam.
After a while, Jurou said indifferently. "Um Miss Fujioka, I didn't know you were a pervert."
Instantly, Himari snapped out of her trance. With a blush on her face due to what she saw, she said "I'm not a pervert. You didn't put the sign on the door."
"I did."
"Huh? Really? I'm sorry I didn't check. I'll be leaving."
As she was leaving, she slipped on water and as she was falling, She braced herself expecting to reach the floor.
After a while, she didn't reach the floor.
What!? No floor?
She opened her eyes to see Jurou holding her softly in his arms looking really worried.
"Are you hurt?"
"No, I'm fine." Himari said that with her cheeks flushed.
"Gosh, you're really clumsy." Jurou carried her.
"Hey! what are you doing?!" Himari spoke out in a fret.
"I'm just taking you outside. Jeez."
"Oh." Himari calmed down a bit.
Jurou dropped her outside the door then walked back in. Himari tried to stop her cheeks from burning.
"Aww that scene was so improper. I have to calm down. Oh my cheeks are burning."
Meanwhile, Jurou stood at the back of the door and smiled softly.
"Dummy."
