I am that male friend in the harem story

Today is the day of her date with Ishigami. 

When Chika thought of that, her body was slightly giddy, and even if she slept a little late, she woke up early, making up her preparation from an early morning since even if she knew that it was meaningless, she wanted to appear the best in front of that bastard. 

Several hours. 

This was the time she used to prepare herself, with hair, make-up, clothes, and many others. 

At the same time, she also needed to make her mental preparation since she knew well that her father was a little strict toward her, especially in the matter of romance. 

Still, as she prepared herself, she also wondered why she had to do all of this. She knew well that Ishigami had a girlfriend, so what was the point of her showing her best and going on a date with him?

As she thought so, she couldn't help but think about their first interaction. At the same time, she just wanted to help him, and then she invited him on a date. 

'Even though you told me you didn't fall for anyone...' 

Yet, Chika also didn't think that Ishigami had fallen for his girlfriend. If there was a reason why he accepted his girlfriend's confession, it was because he was curious, or he didn't want that girl to be sad. 

'As expected of a virgin...' 

Chika couldn't imagine that Ishigami had a system after all, and the only reason she came out with that reason was because she knew well that he was a gentle guy, someone who wished for the happiness of others even if the price of that was his happiness. 

This was why he confessed to her directly that he had a girlfriend instead of hiding it. 

She knew that well, and it was because of that she could blurt out her feelings, yet this was why she really didn't know what to do. 

"No, no. Let's not think anymore!" 

Chika recalled the talk she had with Kaguya and said she shouldn't jump to a conclusion. Instead, she had to wait until their date was over, and by then, she could come up with her own conclusion. 

Probably, these feelings of hers happened because she was a little lonely, desperate, or even sexually frustrated.

While she was embarrassed to acknowledge all of that, she should prepare all the possibilities to understand her feelings better. 

"Even though I am a Detective Chika, the master of love..." 

Still, even if she was Detective Chika, the master of love, she realized that she was a beginner in this world, and due to that, she knew that she had to learn it. 

Well, enough of that since she realized that she might be late, so she quickly prepared to go out, but then, the door of her room was knocked on.

"Chika, are you there? Can you let me borrow that manga?" 

"Nee-chan, me too!" 

Suddenly, two women entered Chika's room at the same time.

The features of the two women were similar to Chika, but one of them was younger, and the other was older. 

Yes, they were Chika's older sister and little sister. 

"Nee-chan, are you going somewhere?" Moeha Fujiwara, Chika's little sister, asked curiously. 

"Oh-ho, are you going on a date, Chika?" However, Tomomi Fujiwara, Chika's older sister, asked with a happy, curious smile. 

"Eh? Date? Nee-chan is going on a date?!" Moeha was surprised, but then she also became curious. 

"Wait! Wait! Don't be so loud!" Chika panicked. 

"Hey, you three, what's wrong?" 

Suddenly, a man's voice was heard, which made all of them tense. It was their father, and if their father knew that Chika was going on a date...

"Nothing, Dad!" 3x

The three of them said this at the same time before Toyomi and Moeha closed Chika's door quickly so their father couldn't listen to their conversation. 

"So, are you really going on a date, Chika?" Toyomi asked with a curious smile. 

"I-It's not a date! It-It's just training! Yeah! It's just a date training with my juniors!" 

Somehow, Chika felt embarrassed and made a clumsy excuse. 

"Oh? You go out with your junior?" Toyomi was surprised. 

"Is he handsome? Can you let me see the photo, Nee-chan?" Moeha was more straightforward and wondered what kind of a boy her older sister would go on a date with. 

'It's not good; they don't even listen to me..." 

Watching her two sisters, who tried to press her even further, Chika knew that she had to make a strategic retreat! 

"Sorry, I have to go now! See you later, Nee-chan, Moeha!" 

As Chika said so, she quickly ran away after she brought all the necessary items for her date. 

Still watching Chika, who had left, Toyomi and Moeha looked at each other for a moment. 

"Are you free after this, Moeha?" 

"Well, I am free now, Toyomi-neechan, so I can follow you anywhere!" 

The two smiled before they made up their preparations. 

Meanwhile, Chika, who could escape from her two sisters, faced her father, but she could simply say that she went out with her friend and then left for the appointment place where she would meet "him." 

As she looked at her watch, she realized that she might have come earlier than the original time. 

"Well, he should be there." 

Considering Ishigami's virgin status, to make her happy, Chika could imagine that he would be there one hour before the appointment time, so to not make him wait for so long, she decided to come 15 minutes or so before the appointment time. 

Unfortunately, this guy didn't follow the script and hadn't even arrived at the appointment place!

"Well, there is still a time before the time." 

As Chika comforted herself, she couldn't help but look at her appearance from the reflection of the glass walls of the nearby building. She looked at herself, thinking that she was cute, a perfect fit for the description of the perfect Shuchiin Academy heroine. 

Naturally, due to how beautiful and cute she was, it was normal for her to be approached, especially when it was on the weekend when many people had nothing to do. 

"Hey, that beautiful girl over there, are you free? If so, how about we have a coffee? I know a good place, and we can talk there." 

One guy suddenly approached Chika excitedly and confidently, thinking that he had found a beautiful girl! 

If he could bring her out, then he would be happy! 

'I want to date her!' 

He thought inside his mind as he started to imagine building a family with Chika inside his mind. 

The thought of Chika rejecting him never existed in his mind, especially when he had dressed the best, like the model in the fashion magazine that he bought. At this moment, he believed that Chika was swooned by his charm! 

More importantly, he had been observing Chika, and he saw that she had been standing there for quite a while. After making sure that no one came to her, he knew that there was a big chance that he could get her! 

Unfortunately, Chika didn't pay attention to this guy, and her thoughts suddenly became gloomy as she thought that Ishigami might not appear, ghosting her and stopping their plan all of a sudden. This thought kept crossing her mind as Ishigami never called her, and she had been waiting for 30 minutes. 

Chika kept staring at her smartphone, and the time kept moving until she felt a quite powerful step from the side, which made her look up. 

"...." 

Chika was in a daze, staring at the figure who had made her wait. To be honest, she thought that yesterday's photo was all due to editing apps since she knew that there were many apps that could make people appear better than their original. 

Or, there might be a chance for Ishigami to put on make-up since some guys started to put on make-up now. 

After all, while she hated to admit it, she had to say that Ishigami, who was in the photo yesterday, was so handsome. 

Yet, when she saw him in front of her, she realized that everything was real and when she saw him smiling in her direction, she felt her face flush red and looked away shyly, but then when she thought about what this guy did to her and how he had made her waiting for so long, she quickly pouted, snorted, then looked at him with a taunting expression as if she asked him what would he do to the guy, who had approached her. 

Still, even if there was someone approaching her, Ishigami just came to her naturally, "Sorry to make you wait, Senpai." 

"You are late!" Chika came up with those words naturally when Ishigami came. 

"Sorry, sorry. I will treat you to an ice cream later." 

"I want two!" 

"Okay, okay. Let's go." 

Ishigami took her hand and left the place. 

'Cheating bastard...' 

Chika thought as she looked at his strong hand, which held her hand firmly as if showing everyone that she was his. Even though she should have pulled her hand away, she didn't pull away and held his hand softly, obediently being led by him. 

As for the guy who approached Chika? 

Well, he just stood there with twitched lips, especially when he saw Chika's apologetic expression in less than a millisecond before she looked away so quickly as if she was just looking at the pebble on the street and looked at Ishigami with a happy smile, realizing that he was just used by this girl to make her boyfriend jealous and showed his possessiveness! 

As he looked at the distant sky, he thought that the girl was all cunning and dirty!
