Chapter 133: What is this?
Hearing such a suggestive suggestion,
Okino Rinka, who knew his wolfish ambition, bit her little tiger teeth in grievance:
"You still dislike me~"
Knowing this was a sensitive issue for her, Sasaki didn't dwell on it either.
After glancing at Otome, who was washing vegetables with her back turned, he held the girl like a plush toy, gently pressing a kiss on her pink jelly-like lips.
"Don't you know my intentions? It was just an excuse; I'm afraid you wouldn't come otherwise~"
Pretending to wipe her tears, Rinka stopped at his words and looked at Sasaki with her tear-filled, red eyes, pitifully.
"Really?"
"Of course~" Sasaki planted another gentle kiss, adjusting his position to better hold the small, soft figure in his arms. "Of course it's true."
Feeling like she might have fallen into a trap, the girl frowned, trying to figure out what seemed of but before she could think further, the boy patted her skirt.
"I'm going to help Otome with dinner. We need to eat early tonight."
"Oh, and when you have time, go to my room and find a box in the cabinet. Take out something from the box and put it under the pillow. We'll need it tonight."
"What?"
Seeing Sasaki's serious expression, Rinka Okino, who had just gotten up from his embrace, didn't get an answer but didn't think too much of it either.
But as he walked towards Otome, her curiosity got the better of her, and she headed upstairs.
Entering Sasaki's room, she saw a large bed covered with white sheets.
The bedding was neatly folded into perfect squares, and various knick-knacks on the bedside table were orderly arranged.
The inner side of the bed's curtain was open, and one of the windows was slightly open, allowing fresh air in and preventing any unpleasant odors.
Since it was already dark outside, the girl switched on the light by pressing the wall switch on the left.
Click—
The warm white light illuminated the room, brightening the previously dim space.
Familiar with the room's layout, like her own, she walked directly to the wardrobe near the balcony.
She climbed onto a stool, opened the white wardrobe door, and stood on tiptoe to reach a small wooden box on the top shelf.
The box wasn't big, about the size of an average person's two palms.
Holding the box, which even Otome might not know about, she shook it gently, hearing a distinct rattling sound.
The sound was sometimes clear, sometimes muffled, leaving her puzzled about its contents.
But considering how carefully Brother Fuyumi had hidden it, she guessed it would not be something good.
With a mix of shyness and anticipation, she placed the small wooden box on the computer desk near the door.
Rubbing her hands together, she sat down and slowly opened the lid of the wooden box.
And the contents didn't disappoint her.
There weren't many items, but they were things she had seen in books, so they weren't unfamiliar.
However, it was her first time seeing the actual objects, making her more curious than embarrassed.
.
.
On top was a black leather strap connected by a black hollow ball.
The ball had a texture similar to rubber, soft and resilient.
Each end of the ball had a small metal ring, connected to highly flexible black straps.
The construction was simple, so after trying it a few times with a flushed face, she tossed it onto the bed behind her.
It was a gag, meant to be worn in the mouth, with the straps securing it around the head.
The largest item in the box was a white fluffy object resembling a dog's tail, however, unlike a real dog tail, the tip of this one was a metallic drop shape.
The drop wasn't very large, about the size of her thumb.
The small round plate attached to the drop could apparently be detached, according to what she knew.
This was a tail plug, designed to be inserted, with the fluffy tail remaining outside as part of the costume.
Thinking about it, she slowly removed the drop.
She then moved aside an item that looked like a small bottle of essential oil.
Inside the box, she found a white fluffy ball with a plug.
Holding the drop and matching it with the fluffy ball, Rinka gently rubbed the ball against her fair, delicate face, feeling its soft texture.
This was another type of tail plug, similar to the first but with a different texture and size,
"Is that all?"
The box wasn't big, so after taking out those few items, there wasn't much left inside.
And Rinka wasn't particularly surprised that Sasaki had secretly stashed these things.
After all, someone who knew how to play wasn't necessarily a player, but a player definitely knew how to play.
From the moment she saw Sasaki flirting with others behind Otome's back, she had mentally prepared herself.
These items were just mild in comparison to what she had in mind.
Even if they were more extreme, Rinka Okino wouldn't be too shocked; she'd just sigh about how well her brother Fuyumi knew how to play.
However, since these items might be used on her tonight, she wasn't about to mock Sasaki, saying, "Is that all? This isn't even as stimulating as the stuff I've read."
Instead of doubting his playfulness, she was more focused on whether to put the drop-shaped head and the fluffy ball back into the box.
Judging by their condition, it was clear they hadn't been used yet.
This meant that even Otome-nee wasn't ahead in every aspect.
After pondering for a moment, she placed the empty box back in the wardrobe.
Knowing your strengths and weaknesses is crucial in life and in doing things.
Self-awareness is a valuable trait.
So, once Rinka realized her feelings for Sasaki, she took decisive action.
Although she hesitated slightly because of Otome, in unavoidable situations, she would leverage all her advantages to secure a place in Sasaki's heart.
Just as she had used her position as a sister to constantly prevent her brother, Okino Kazuki, from getting close to Otome-nee she would now use her strengths to secure her place with Fuyumi nii.
As for the idea of kicking Otome aside to monopolize Fuyumi-nii...
To be honest, everyone has selfish desires, and Rinka was no exception.
But selfish desires depend on the type of people.
Some or maximum people have a strong sense of exclusivity and don't accept their partner being with anyone else, hoping their partner loves only them.
Others prefer a harmonious and inclusive environment, valuing family unity even if it means ignoring social norms.
And fortunately for Sasaki, Rinka belonged to the latter category.
If her brother, Okino Kazuki, had treated her like he did with Otome-nee, showing affection even if not romantic, she would have made different choices,
However that was a big if.
Compared to her brother's single-minded "loyalty," she preferred Fuyumi-nii's inclusive attitude.
Such an approach wouldn't force her to do things she did not like.
Did she enjoy mimicking Sakuragi Otome?
Did she like doing things that might make her brother hate her?
It was all because her brother was overly "loyal," seeing only one person and no one else, not even his own blood-related sister.
If he had shown even a bit of "I like them all," she wouldn't have needed to betray him.
But after shifting her affections, she no longer had to do such detestable things.
Now, she needed to think about how to use her advantages.
What were her advantages? Being flat or small? Not at all!
Her advantage was knowing more than Otome-nee, being bolder, and not playing hard to get.
Although some guys liked that game, she knew her Brother Sasaki wasn't one of them.
If he were, he wouldn't be so eager to get her into his bed.
As long as she used her advantage well, even if his heart didn't think so, his body would definitely prefer her.
"Hehe~"
Looking at the fluffy ball in her hand, feeling both anticipation and shyness, Rinka Okino turned around and flopped onto the bed, rolling back and forth.
