“Alright, once again, cheeeers!”
The four of them—technically, three people and one entity; no, let’s just call it four people. According to the lady herself, her body was crafted by a highly intelligent being, but from her cells to her DNA, she was indistinguishable from an Earthling.
The other three were undoubtedly human: childhood friends Kentarou, Minoha, and Haruko. Together, the four began their drinking party in the living room.
“Hey, hey, miss, you have to answer us. Who exactly are you?”
“Hold on, Minoha. Asking that outright is kind of rude.” Haruko attempted to play mediator, only to add, “So, miss, how far have you gone with Kentarou?”
“Blugh! Guh! Cough!” Kentarou choked.
“Kentaro kindly invited me to stay the night here.”
“He invited you!? Kentarou, you sly dog! You took advantage of your parents being out of town… Naughty, naughty, Kentarou!”
“It’s not like that!” Kentarou protested.
“Actually, Kentarou didn’t know his parents were away. Since it’d be awkward with just the two of them, he called me, and I invited Haruko.”
“I see. But still, what’s a beautiful lady like you doing with Kentarou… How far have you two gone?”
“I’m curious about that too!” Minoha and Haruko edged closer to the lady, pressing her for answers.
Seeing the lady at a loss, Kentarou stepped in. “Nothing happened. I just helped her out. It was an act of kindness.”
“Then how did you two even meet?”
“Well, that’s… um…”
Now it was Kentarou’s turn to stumble.
The lady answered instead. “I met Kentarou through my work. He was a client.”
“Wh-what!? So… is it… an adult entertainment business?”
“No, Minoha! Why would you even think that?”
“Because Kentarou’s a perv!”
“Yeah, he’s been like that since elementary school. Playing doctor with him was so embarrassing; he’d immediately pull down my underwear.”
“Th-that’s mutual! I lost count of how many times you tugged on my you-know-what!”
“Ha ha ha! Well, Kentarou has a mole right next to his you-know-what!”
“That’s right, he did.”
“Even back in the sandbox… ha ha ha! Kentarou, you perv!”
“Ha ha! So embarrassing! …Oh, sorry for leaving you out, miss. Anyway, Kentarou is such a perv.”
“Come on, Minoha, Haruko, stop talking about that!”
“Please, go on. The more flustered Kentarou becomes, the better it is for my work evaluation.”
“Miss, seriously?”
“And what exactly is your job, miss?”
“I am a trans-dimensional planner, able to alter your past mistakes, erase your regrets, and offer you the present and future you desire.” Kentarou covered his face, feeling doomed. Yet…
“Ha ha ha! Miss, you’ve had too much to drink!”
“Total chūnibyō! Your story has vibes! Ha ha ha!”
Kentarou felt caught off guard by this unexpected reaction.
Then, the lady dropped one last bombshell. “…I was meant to erase Kentarou’s ‘three-pee.'”
“What!?”
“How… how do you know about that?”
“Wait, Kentarou, did you tell her!?”
“Kentarou, that’s terrible! You know that’s supposed to stay a secret!”
“I didn’t! I swear I didn’t tell anyone!”
“Yes, Kentarou has kept the secret. I simply observed it.”
Minoha and Haruko looked bewildered. “Whaaat? What does that even mean!?”
“Was she watching us!?”
