章 203: [203] Unexpected Kiss

Chapter 203: Unexpected Kiss

"Fortunately, no bone injury," reassured the nurse. "Just apply some ice, put on the medicinal solution, and take it easy for a while," she advised, prompting a casual nod from Hachiman.

"Thanks for your help, doc," he acknowledged.

"No problem; it's my duty," she replied before turning to retrieve liniment and bandages.

Approaching with medical supplies, the nurse was interrupted by the school bell signaling the end of the day. Her face lit up with a happy smile as she handed the liniment, bandages, and ice pack to Hachiman.

"Uh, what's this?" he asked, puzzled.

With a cheerful expression, the nurse explained, "Sorry about this, but I have a date with my boyfriend today, so I need to leave early. Handling this is simple, and your boyfriend can take care of it for you," she added, addressing Yumiko.

"It's a great opportunity to strengthen your relationship. Don't thank me. Good luck!" she said, taking off her white coat, picking up her small handbag, and walking away in high heels, leaving a cheerful "clack, clack, clack" sound.

Watching the nurse's departure, Hachiman was utterly baffled.

"Man, is this a dereliction of duty? Who has a nurse that just abandons a sick student to go on a date?" he wondered aloud. Moreover, judging by the spring-like affection in her eyes, tonight's plans probably involve more than just a simple date.

Glancing at the dazed Yumiko, still processing the nurse's unexpected departure, Hachiman shrugged.

"Guess it's up to me now."

Setting the bandages and medicinal solution aside, Hachiman squatted down, gently holding the ice pack.

Reaching out, he grasped Yumiko's injured foot. The touch was delicate; her bare foot exhibited no signs of calluses. The feel against his fingertips was both warm and well-contoured, providing a comfortable sensation.

"Uh... What are you doing?"

Startled by Hachiman touching her foot, Yumiko, lost in thought, shivered.

"Huh? This reaction is similar to when I touched Utaha's waist before. Could it be... is Yumiko's foot a sensitive spot?" Hachiman mentally noted, smiling gently.

"Of course, I'm helping you with the ice pack. Since that unreliable nurse has already left, I'll have to take over."

Hearing his words, Yumiko froze, stammering, "I-I don't need your help. Just let go of my foot."

Attempting to free her foot from Hachiman's grasp, she forgot her injured state. As she moved, pain shot through the injured area, causing her to cry out.

"Ah, it hurts!"

"I told you, Yumiko, you're injured right now. Don't move recklessly; it could make the injury worse."

This advice worked, as Yumiko hesitated, refraining from moving.

Satisfied with this outcome, Hachiman secured the girl's foot again and slowly brought the ice pack closer.

To his surprise, he noticed that the fashion-conscious Yumiko had painted her toenails.

Clearly nervous, she kept her eyes closed, tensing up. Faint veins appeared on the surface of her foot, and her delicate toes curled tightly together.

Normally arrogant, Yumiko now resembled a lamb waiting for slaughter, a sight that brought a wry smile to Hachiman's face.

Gradually, the ice pack was placed on her sprained ankle, prompting a surprised exclamation from Yumiko.

"Uh, it's so cold."

"Just endure it; it will get better. We need the cold to reduce the swelling," reassured Hachiman, carefully massaging the swollen area with the ice pack.

When an injury occurs, tiny blood vessels may still be bleeding. Applying an ice pack at this stage helps the blood vessels contract, aiding in stopping the bleeding and effectively relieving the condition.

After about 15 to 20 minutes of cold compress, Hachiman removed the ice pack and examined Yumiko's ankle. Seeing some reduction in the redness and swelling, he breathed a sigh of relief. With a gentle smile, he turned to her and asked.

"How does it feel now?"

"Uh... it's not too painful, but still a bit swollen." Catching a glimpse of his gentle smile, Yumiko couldn't help but be touched, involuntarily turning her head slightly.

"That's normal; swelling takes a few days to subside. When you get home, continue applying cold compresses a few more times. It will help with the swelling. Also, make sure to rest more in the coming days," Hachiman advised with concern.

"Yeah... I understand." Upon hearing his caring words, a faint blush appeared on Yumiko's face.

Next, Hachiman used a cotton swab dipped in bruise medicine to apply it to Yumiko's swollen ankle. The process was inevitably a bit painful, causing the girl to bite her lip and occasionally emit a muffled groan of discomfort.

Once the medicine was applied, he carefully wrapped the injured ankle and foot with a bandage, securing it with medical tape. Throughout the entire process, he remained diligent, handling the task with utmost care to avoid causing any additional pain.

As the saying goes, men who are serious are especially attractive to women. Seeing Hachiman's meticulous demeanor, Yumiko couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart.

After a short while, the girl's ankle was finally properly bandaged, prompting Hachiman to let out a sigh of relief.

"Finally, all done."

"Yeah, thank you." Yumiko's voice softened in response.

"No problem, it's what I should do. After all, your injury does have a bit to do with my actions," Hachiman replied, shaking his head in response to the girl's gratitude.

When this matter was brought up, a trace of resentment surfaced in Yumiko's heart.

"Why did you help that girl, Yukinoshita? And you, Hachiman, you actually didn't let me score a single point in the last three rounds, making me lose face."

"Because we're members of the same club," Hachiman chuckled.

"And, on this matter, Yumiko, you also have some faults. After all, we rented the tennis court for training, and we couldn't agree to let you use it."

"As for not letting you score, I mentioned it at the beginning, but you just didn't believe it," he added innocently, spreading his hands.

"You jerk."

Seeing him take advantage of the situation and act cute, Yumiko wished she could bite him to death.

Possibly due to Hachiman's overly cheeky expression, the girl felt an urge to give him a good beating. However, in her forgetfulness of her own injury, she stumbled forward.

Right in front of her was Hachiman, who was crouching down. As the girl fell, he instinctively opened his arms, and she stumbled into them.

In this close proximity, their cheeks were nearly touching. The girl's warm and slightly hurried breath sprayed onto Hachiman's face. With soft and moist lips so close, he couldn't resist leaning in for a kiss.

Feeling the warm sensation on her lips, Yumiko froze. Only one thought echoed in her mind: "Sorry, Yui!"


章 204: [204] Yumiko's Shift in Attitude

Chapter 204: Yumiko's Shift in Attitude

Unexpectedly, Hachiman kissed Yumiko, leaving her a bit bewildered. However, under his skilled kissing technique, she quickly lost her resistance and couldn't help but respond involuntarily.

Before the girl lost her ability to resist, a thought crossed her mind.

Why is Hachiman so proficient at this? How many times has he kissed Yui?

However, this thought only lasted for a moment as Yumiko was soon captivated by Hachiman.

The setting sun's warm glow streamed through the window, casting a golden veil over the kissing teenagers, creating a scene of tranquility. Everything seemed quiet and peaceful, like an unfolded painting.

After an unknown amount of time, their lips parted, and Yumiko finally caught her breath, breathing heavily.

"Hachiman, you..."

"Sorry, couldn't resist it for a moment. It's just that you're so beautiful, always attracting my attention."

At this point, Hachiman started becoming shameless.

"Don't worry, now that I've kissed you, I'll take responsibility."

Upon hearing his words, Yumiko was stunned. A ripple emerged in her heart, and a faint blush appeared on her face.

Throughout her life, due to her proud and queen-like personality, hardly anyone dared to confess to her directly. Hearing such straightforward words suddenly made her heartbeat quicken.

The first time is always impressive, and though she doesn't want to admit it, Hachiman has left a lasting impression on the girl's heart.

Actually, when you look closely, Hachiman is quite handsome, and as a famous light novel author with excellent cooking skills, he's indeed a good candidate for a romantic partner.

Almost involuntarily, this thought crossed the girl's mind, but she shook her head a moment later.

Yumiko thought of her best friend, and her expression became conflicted.

"Yui..."

Upon hearing the name, Hachiman smiled.

"Don't worry, Yumiko, I like you on this side, and I won't give up on Yui either."

"Only kids make choices; as an adult, I want everything. You're all my wings."

At this point, Hachiman completely let go and openly expressed his true thoughts.

This made Yumiko's gaze suddenly sharp.

"What do you mean? Do you want to have a harem?!"

Seeing her reaction, Hachiman sighed inwardly.

Indeed, dealing with strong-willed girls is not easy, but since he has already made up his mind, he won't give up.

The best way to deal with a strong-willed girl is to be even more assertive than her, as demonstrated with Utaha before.

In the disbelieving gaze of Yumiko, Hachiman once again kissed her lips.

Initially, the girl was naturally unwilling, but under Hachiman's exceptional skill, she quickly succumbed.

Yumiko felt as if her soul had been sucked away, her consciousness becoming fuzzy, and she responded to the kiss entirely based on instinct.

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of a wine bottle being uncorked, "pop," echoed, and the two finally parted their lips.

A moment later, Yumiko regained consciousness, sensing a strange sensation on her lips. She reached out, touched it, and then spoke up angrily.

"Why did you suck so hard, you jerk? My lips are swollen."

"But it seems like you responded quite actively," Hachiman shrugged.

Hearing his words, the girl's face turned red, and her tone became stuttered.

"T-that's just a natural reaction. Blame it all on you, jerk."

"Alright, alright, blame it all on me."

Hachiman went along with the girl's mood. Dealing with a girl like Yumiko, who has a quick temper and is easily appeased, requires going along with the flow.

"As long as you know."

As expected, upon hearing his words, the girl turned her head away without looking at him, but a smile still appeared at the corner of her mouth.

It was almost six o'clock, and observing the gradually darkening sky, Hachiman spoke, "It's getting late. Let me take you home."

"Hmph, I don't need you to escort me."

Although appeased, Yumiko now displayed a somewhat spoiled attitude.

"No, I can't let you go alone. After all, Yumiko, you're so pretty, and with your injured foot, what if you encounter some bad people?" Hachiman coaxed and warned.

"Ugh... fine."

Hearing his words, the girl fell silent, hesitated for a moment, and eventually agreed. Although it sounded intimidating, it couldn't be denied that such incidents could actually happen.

Seeing Yumiko's agreement, Hachiman smiled, turned around, and crouched down with his back to the girl.

"Get on, I'll carry you back."

Witnessing this scene, the girl's face blushed slightly. While being carried might be a bit embarrassing, it was much better than being princess-carried.

She slowly stood up from the sickbed, raised her injured foot, leaned forward slightly, and leaned on Hachiman's back. Her two hands instinctively wrapped around his neck.

While the girl's bust wasn't as ample as Yui and the others, it still had a considerable size. Feeling the soft pressure on his back, Hachiman's heart fluttered for a moment.

However, he quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart after a moment and glanced downward.

"Hold on tight; I'm going to stand up."

Upon hearing his words, Yumiko instinctively tightened her arms.

Sensing her movement, Hachiman slowly stood up, securing her legs with his hands.

"Let's go; I'll take you home."

"Okay."

Yumiko replied softly, lying on Hachiman's back. As she looked at his profile, she felt an unusual sense of security.

Sorry, Yui. Let me enjoy this moment for now.

Apologizing silently to her best friend, Yumiko slowly pressed her cheek against Hachiman's back.

The surroundings seemed to quiet down, leaving only the synchronized heartbeat of the two in the air.

With the campus now deserted, and students involved in club activities gone, Hachiman left the school carrying Yumiko on his back. They walked slowly on the road, bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun, casting their elongated shadows.

Soon, guided by the girl, the two arrived at her doorstep.

Setting Yumiko down from his back, Hachiman smiled and spoke, "Alright, I've safely brought you home. Now I can go back without worries."

"Hmph, that's what you should do. It's all because of you that I got injured in the first place."

Yumiko, at this moment, reverted to her proud demeanor.

Seeing her like this, Hachiman found it a bit amusing.

"Alright, it's my fault. Remember to apply cold compresses a few more times tonight; it'll help with the swelling. As for me, I'll head back now. Goodbye, my Yumiko." With that, he leaned down, planted a quick kiss on her cheek, and swiftly ran off.

"You jerk!"

Watching him escape, Yumiko muttered under her breath, then cautiously looked back at her front door. After confirming no one had witnessed their interaction, she sighed in relief.

The girl suddenly realized that, despite her reluctance to admit it, she wasn't as resistant to Hachiman's kiss as before.

Unwillingly, she acknowledged that he had indeed left a mark on her heart, like an ink drop spreading slowly in water.
