Stealing Spree
chapter-2122

After that, I continued teasing Futaba until she became flushed with embarrassment. I was trying to see if she would run away but the girl was quite feisty. She wouldn't back down at all despite fighting a losing battle.

"Unbelievable. Shouldn't you treat me better, Onoda-kun?"

"I'm treating you excellently, don't you see? Since you're here, should I make you a chocolate drink? It'll cool you down. I'll add three spoonfuls of sugar."

"Try it and you'll be doused with your chocolate drink!"

"Alright. Wait here."

"I said no!"

I acted like I was going to stand up but Futaba grabbed ahold of my arm, preventing me from doing so.

Looking at her desperate appearance, that's probably the limit I could go for this. Otherwise, she might really end up hating me.

I grinned and said, "Alright. That's enough teasing for tonight."

"Stop making fun of me, Onoda-kun. I swear... You're ruining my diet." Futaba pouted as she slowly put distance between us again. She still had no plans of returning upstairs and I had no idea what was keeping her here.

Since she specifically brought it up yet all she could was be annoyed and infuriated at how I kept teasing her, there's not much I could do, right?

Anyway, this was getting old so... I should really pull back a bit. I mean, I did say I would be lenient in the future.

"Do you know why I keep teasing you with sweets?"

"Why? Because it's fun, right?" The girl eyed me hatefully. She sulkily crossed her arms and averted her gaze to the side as though she was waiting for me to comfort her.

"No. Because I saw that you enjoyed the food I gave you. You finished them despite saying you didn't like eating them. The ice cream. The crepe. The cake. And even those biscuits. I get it. You're managing your intake and I'm kind of an asshole to force them on you. But you know what? You didn't even try giving it back even after rejecting it."

"... It's rude."

"Is that all?"

"What do you want me to say? That I love them?"

"Mhm." I nodded.

Looking frustrated yet she couldn't really deny it, Futaba wearily sighed.

"Ugh. Fine. I love eating them but I can't take sugar mindlessly, Onoda-kun." She then moved closer to me as though, just enough for her figure to be fully displayed in my vision. Following that, she met my gaze and then pointed down at the supple bulge in front of her. "Listen. This is my reason. I have a special constitution. I'm more susceptible to gaining weight than other girls like Akane or Eri. And I don't mean general weight. Do you see this? This part of me grows whenever I take a lot of sugar."

...

Now, it became my turn to be speechless.

Sugar could make her chest grow? What the heck? Is that why Eri also never denied the sweets I'm giving them? She's also hoping to grow there even if she has a different constitution.

Seeing me stuck staring at her, Futaba continued.

"I know what you're thinking. It's normal for girls to develop, especially those of our age. Only Fuyu has natural growth. Mine became like this because I ended up developing a sweet tooth last year! I never told anyone about this but now you know..."

"You're not joking?"

"Why will I joke? I... I even asked Yuichi to remind me to watch my sugar intake. I kept picking the bitter tea even though I love drinking a carbonated drink. What else? I asked my mom not to buy me a cake during my birthday so we went to eat sushi instead! I hate sushi."

At this point, Futaba started venting as she listed out her troubles concerning her sugar intake. Looking at her face, she's now close to crying.

Now, I feel like an asshole. Alright. Let's apologize and stop forcing sweets on her.

"... That's why Onoda-kun. Please don't."

"Alright. I heard you. I won't do it anymore. I'll be mindful of what to give you."

"Promise?"

"Yeah. You told me something confidential so... I should at least respect your boundaries, right? One about one candy?"

Futaba happily nodded at first then realized what I just said, "You're still at it!"

"I'm kidding. So, don't cry. Next time you visit, I won't force a desert on you."

"... No. Still, prepare some. I'll make sure to open up a space for my sugar limit for it."

"You sure?"

"Y-yeah. I told you I love it. And you seem to always bring out something great." Futaba stuttered as her face seemingly turned pink from embarrassment.

I guess it meant she loved the sweets I gave her despite how much she despised them earlier. Now that she could admit it, it made her embarrassed.

"Alright then. That's a promise." I raised my hand as though I was making a vow.

Seeing that, a relieved smile formed from Futaba's lips.

"Good... By the way, Onoda-kun..."

Once again, just as I thought this was already over, Futaba zeroed our distance.

I leaned back as though I was dodging her but the girl pushed forward.

"Hmm? What is it?" I asked, acting like I was being very careful around her.

The girl who was just snarling at me earlier put on a determined look before muttering

seriously, "I have a favor to ask you."

"Wait. Favor? I almost made you cry. Why are you still going to me for a favor?"

"Because I think you're still the best person for it."

"Alright. You lost me there. Let me hear about that favor first."

"... Actually, it's related to what I just revealed to you."

What she revealed to me? Is it her sugar intake or... something else?

Wait. If it's something else then...

As I thought of that, my eyes couldn't help but fall on her tight bulge that looked like they were threatening to burst out of her pajamas.

Ah... Wait. Now that she mentioned it... did it just grow tonight? Was that why it looked tight on her? The multiple servings of sugar from the crepe, cake, and biscuits went over her limit.

"Huh?"

"I expected that look on your face, Onoda-kun. You realized it just now, am I right? Yes. It's because of you."

Upon saying that, the girl then retreated slightly, straightening her back. With both of her hands, she moved to hold that part of her from both sides, squeezing them together.

"My request is in regards to this but not exactly because it grew again."

"... If it's not that, then what?"

"It hurt when my boyfriend tried holding them."

... This girl. What is she trying to say here? Unlike Eri, the explosiveness of her bombs was

more devastating.
