"I want to hear the voice of the sky."
"Wow, nice voice."
"My voice is usually low, but when I sing it becomes husky."
"..."
After I finished singing, there was a moment of silence. I thought maybe I was too bad, but it seems they were engrossed in my singing. Thank goodness! It was my first time singing karaoke, so I was really nervous. I thought it would be hard to even follow up on my poor singing.
From there, we just enjoyed karaoke. We competed for points, played penalty games, imitated voices, did duets, etc. It was my first time at karaoke, but I think I'm addicted to it. Or rather, I'm addicted to it. Once I have all the equipment, it might be a good idea to release a cover song. But before that, there's the issue of copyright.
(But still)
I noticed something. I'm not insensitive, so I'm sure I'll notice things to a certain extent. There were two gazes. There were only four of us, including me, and Maika was singing right now, so there was no need to say their names, but it was Matsumura-san and Uchimiya-san. I got the feeling that Matsumura-san was up to something.
For some reason, Uchimiya-san's mind was elsewhere as she stared at me. What? Has she fallen in love with me? No way. Uchimiya-san, the honor student who was looked up to by many, is falling in love with me? No way, probably. I've never heard any rumors of her having a boyfriend, so there's no way that could happen with Uchimiya-san, who seems to be completely focused on her club activities and studies. Well, they say the more you look at someone like that, the more likely it is, so is it even possible?
"I'm just going to go wash my hands"
"Yes."
I leave the room to go to the bathroom. Is the bathroom down this hallway, turning right at the corner? I walk to the bathroom. On the left is a private toilet, and on the right is the men's and women's toilets. There is a security camera on the ceiling a little further back.
Then he notices something. In the previous world, except for the security cameras, it is normal for the men's restroom to be in the front and the women's restroom in the back as a measure against suspicious people. But here, it's the opposite, the women's restroom is in the front and the men's in the back.
(I guess this is what happens in a world where chastity is reversed. I unconsciously ended up going in towards the front.)
I was on the verge of becoming a sexual assaulter. Just as I was about to pass by the ladies' restroom, someone suddenly grabbed me by the arm and dragged me into the restroom.
"Huh?!"
I was so shocked that I couldn't keep up with the reaction, I lost my balance, and was dragged into the private room with that momentum. The whole process was incredibly fast. It was as if he knew this toilet very well. And he was quite well trained. He made me sit on the toilet seat, pushed me against the wall, and pointed the screen of his smartphone at me. There was a photo of my secret account.
"This photo is you, right?"
The voice sounded familiar, and it was the always cheerful and innocent Matsumura-san. However, the person standing there had the face of a villainous woman, as if she was forcing evidence on me and plotting something evil. Although it was definitely Matsumura-san, the problem was that my secret account had been discovered. For now, I'll try to play dumb.
"What are you talking about? Is it even okay to do something like this? It's a crime."
"Don't change the subject, and I won't be fooled. And I won't let you off the hook."
"Eh? Did you use it as wank material?"
"The muscles in this arm clearly matched the photograph."
(Ignore it?!)
This time he shows me a photo of his arm. It definitely matches mine. Because it is my arm. And it is the same arm that Matsumura-san had when he made the request. I could act violently here, but even if I was being threatened, I would feel reluctant to hurt a classmate, especially a girl.
"I'll ask again. This is you, right?"
"...What if?"
"Don't give me a vague answer. Tell me clearly."
"It was me, so what?"
Maybe she'll use this to threaten me and treat me like a slave or do all the errands? No, this world has a completely reversed idea of chastity. Maybe she'll exploit my weakness and demand that I pay with my body. Well, I wouldn't mind being told that by a beautiful girl like Matsumura-san. But I don't want it to be spread around! I might lose my place at school!
"on second thoughts···"
Then, he let go of the wall, freeing himself from the wall-don. Then he took a deep breath.
"I like you! Please go out with me!"
"···yes?"
He held out his hand, bowed, and confessed his love to me. In the ladies' bathroom... I was so confused that my brain couldn't process it.
