CHAPTER 9: The Night When Liliana-san Was Spoiled a Whole Lot
PART 1
(I’ve done…… Oh, I’ve really done it right about now.)
At the current moment Tatsuya was headed towards one of his life’s most grievous events and unsuccessful mistakes.
Tatsuya and Liliana were watching TV while relaxing after taking a bath not so long ago.
The time from bathing to going to bed is often the time when the two of them were just sitting on the sofa and watching TV, that is, only on days when their instincts were not urging them to go to bed straight away and go at it through the whole night all the way until the morning. And today was just that kind of a day where they would just sit back and relax. Or at least that’s what Tatsuya had thought.
What they were watching at the current moment was a program featuring various ghost stories, which was one of many summer staples.
Well, it might have been a well-established summer staple, but there was also one huge problem with that: that Tatsuya did not really like ghost stories. No, truth to be told, he simply could not stand them.
Since his early age, Tatsuya used to be threatened by his parents that if he was to commit misconduct or commit mischief, there would be an angry ghost that would come for him to punish him and take him away. Ever since that time, ghosts of any sort had become Tatsuya’s major weakness, as well as a source of trauma.
However, the reason why he was currently forcing himself to watch one of those ghost stories programs was because of Liliana who was sitting right next to him.
He remembered that she once mentioned that she was not all that good with “Images of blood and other bloody things like that”, so his curiosity actually got the better of him and he wanted to see just how she would react to one of those shows, especially if it was going to scare her.
Now, Tatsuya himself was not all that good with shows like that, but for the sake of seeing Liliana all scared and panicked, he had to at least keep up the appearances for long enough.
Plus, there is a distinct difference between watching horror shows all on your own, and watching them while having company right next to you.
Right next to him there was Liliana who, as usual, was snuggling up to him while holding his hand tightly.
If his plan would succeed here, she would most probably let out a shriek and go for a scared hug with Tatsuya, and the sweet scent of her hair and the soft sensation of her breasts pressing against him would be his greatest award, and something that would allow him to alleviate his own personal fears.
In his mind, Tatsuya thought that it was going to be a perfect, flawless plan. There was also the prospect of seeing an entirely new, never-before-seen side of Liliana, which would be an added flavor here. Of course, all the while not letting her know that he was also really scared.
And it is precisely because of that that the two of them were currently watching the ghost stories program.
As for the stories themselves, there was a large variety: from the classic school ghost story to the template flow such as cursed photography, as well as the preproduction of a VTR.
At this point, Tatsuya was pretty close to reaching his limit when it comes to the scary stuff, especially when it comes to school buildings at night, the shadows with white face in the background of an old photo, or the more gory stuff carried out by professional actors.
There was cold sweat dripping down his neck and hands, while he was still squeezing Liliana’s hand really tight.
However, Liliana, who should have also been showing the signs of being scared to at least some degree, still had a cool expression that was not scared in the least.
When Tatsuya was wondering why Liliana was seemingly unfazed with all of that scary stuff, he finally decided to ask her about that. And the truth left him quite shocked and disbelieved.
Liliana might hate all “bloody” things, but spiritual horror is pretty much okay in her own book.
In other words, Tatsuya was the only one who was afraid of the spiritual horror stories that they were watching for quite a while now.
Tatsuya was truly stunned beyond belief once he found that out, especially that all of his enduring of the horrors happening right in front of him on the screen of the TV were pretty much for naught, but since he was the one who invited Liliana to watch the program, he could not simply stop hallway through and back away.
So Tatsuya had no other choice but to endure the rest of the show that lasted for two more hours while his heart was about ready to jump out of his chest, at the same time having to pay close attention so that he would out himself as a scaredy cat right in front of Liliana.
And although he looked pretty much alright on the outside, on the inside he was cursing his own stupidity, also making a pledge that he would never commit a mistake such as this one ever again.
「It certainly was an interesting show, don’t you think so too, Tatsuya-san?」
「YEAH. I. GUESS. SO.」
「I would really like for us to watch something like this together again.」
「…… YEAH. I. GUESS. SO.」
For some strange reason, Tatsuya thought that for a moment out there the smile on Liliana’s lips had a slight tinge of cruelty to it, but then it was all gone, so Tatsuya thought that he must have been seeing things.
「Well then, it’s a little bit early, but why do we go to bed already? Recently, I get a feeling that we are going to sleep later and later.」
She Liliana while getting up from the sofa and turning off the TV.
As for them going to sleep later and later as of later, she should have known well enough what the reason for that state of affairs was.
「Alright, I get it. Let’s do just that.」
「There are one thousand four hundred fifty two sheep hopping through the fence, there are one thousand four hundred fifty three sheep hopping through the fence, there are one thousand four hundred fifty four sheep hopping through the fence…… No, it’s no use. I just can’t sleep.-
More than an hour has already passed since the two of them went to bed.
Tatsuya just couldn’t fall asleep for some reason and was just repeatedly turning from one side to another in a futile attempt at falling to sleep.
But as for the cause of his insomnia, it was actually all simple and clear for him.
Even though he knew that nothing good would ultimately come out of it, he ended up watching the entirety of a horror show that he knew he wasn’t all that good with, and now he was paying the price of trying to look all cool while doing so.
Now, even though he was not afraid of the dark, he could not help it but to feel strange when looking at the empty dark spaces now, feeling that there were things there that he knew that were not there. Also, every time he closed his eyes he was starting to think that there might just be some sort of white spiritual apparition hovering right in front of his face, or that those ghostly photograph entities might be lurking just around the corner. Because of this irrational fear his nerves became so tense that he simply could not fall asleep and relax.
And to make the matters even worse, tonight Liliana was not by his side, either.
The two of them used to have se almost every single night, especially right after the summer vacation kicked into full swing, and always shared one bed as a result, but originally Liliana had a separate bedroom that Tatsuya prepared for her so that she could have some privacy.
Because it was more than natural for them that they were sleeping in separate rooms before their relationship developed into the current level of intimacy that they shared. At least, it was natural to sleep separately before developing into the current relationship.
So at the current moment, they had a rule in effect that always when they would have something important that they needed to take care of the following day, they would sleep separately so that they could actually get some sleep.
However, that was actually not the real reason as to why Tatsuya was sleeping in a separate bedroom this time around.
Because it was his long awaited summer vacation, the two of them could have sex at any time of the day, whenever they would get excited or simply because they were feeling like doing it.
