Chapter Title: The Room You Can't Leave Without Having Sex (2)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fujikawa Hayato.
Sakura Minami's boyfriend Fujikawa Shohei's uncle.
She'd exchanged greetings with him a few times at Shohei's house.
He said he'd come to play the adult role in place of Shohei's parents, who were overseas on assignment... but honestly, Shohei had said he didn't quite buy it. Minami had agreed with him because Hayato always looked so disheveled.
Even claiming to work from home, Hayato didn't look like a functioning member of society at all.
Who would've thought she'd end up trapped in "The Room You Can't Leave Without Having Sex" with a guy like that...
Minami let out a small sigh and cautiously opened her eyes. She instinctively checked her body. She might have been violated by Hayato while she was unconscious. That's how little trust she had in him.
'Ugh... I'm probably fine, right?'
But contrary to her worries, there were no unusual marks on her body.
"What the hell is this? 'The Room You Can't Leave Without Having Sex'? Ha, give me a break... This is ridiculous."
Then, from across from her, Hayato's voice rang out.
"Rule 1. The man and woman who entered this room can only return to reality after having sex."
"Rule 2. Sex means intercourse between man and woman, and it is only recognized as sex after internal ejaculation."
"Rule 3. After sex, decide the time to return to reality by mutual agreement."
"P.S. What happens in this room has no effect on reality. Enjoy a worry-free romp without pregnancy concerns... Fucking hell, even the pranks are done with such dedication."
His tone carried a hint of irritation.
Hayato was reading something aloud, cursing in annoyance. From the sound of it, it was a paper listing the rules of the "Sex Can't Room." He clearly didn't believe the rules. No, even before that, he seemed unwilling to accept the existence of the "Sex Can't Room" itself.
Does he really not know where we are?
But that didn't make sense. According to Chiaki, only users who'd installed the app could enter the "Sex Can't Room." So Hayato's reaction had to be an act to fool Minami now that she was awake.
'J-Just as I thought... He's a sleazy creep!'
Minami grew even more wary of him.
-Rustle
"Ah, y-you... Feeling a bit better?"
"Y-Yes!"
"Uh, umm..."
Surprisingly, Hayato seemed wary of her too.
He hurriedly hid the paper he'd been reading behind his back. As he asked after her well-being, he stuffed the rule-written paper into his back pocket. And Minami saw it all clearly.
Why hide it?
The question lingered, but she couldn't ask outright.
"Um... You're Minami, right?"
"Y-Yes. Sakura Minami."
"Right, Sakura. You feeling okay? You collapsed out of nowhere and scared me."
"Ah... Yes, I'm fine now."
"Good... That's a relief."
"Um... Did you put me on the bed, Hayato-san?"
"Huh? Oh, uh... Couldn't just leave you there... Sorry if that bothered you."
"N-No?! Thank you. It was comfortable."
Minami was startled by his words.
She was grateful, that much was true, but honestly, it made her a little uncomfortable too. Now that she knew he was shady, the moment she'd lost consciousness kept nagging at her. What if he'd groped her while she slept? Her mind grew complicated, and she awkwardly changed the subject.
"Um... So, where are we?"
"Beats me... That's what I want to know. Sigh, Siwoo might have a clue, but I can't reach him."
"Huh? You think Shohei-kun would know?"
"Yeah. His phone suddenly lit up bright, so I looked over, and next thing I know, I'm here. Sigh... Tried calling, but look—no signal."
"S-Shohei-kun's phone?!"
"Huh? Oh, uh. Borrowed it for work earlier."
Minami was silently shocked by his response.
She assumed it was a lie... but Hayato was telling the truth. The couple-matched case and grip tok. What he held was definitely Shohei's smartphone—the one Chiaki had installed the "Sex Can't Room" app on.
The impact made Minami stagger.
"Whoa... Sakura! You okay?!"
"Ah... Haha... Yeah."
So he really didn't know where they were?
Now Hayato's actions made sense. If someone suddenly told you you'd been locked in "The Room You Can't Leave Without Having Sex," anyone would be dumbfounded. It was natural to get pissed and call it a stupid prank.
And thinking about it, she hadn't entered any personal info during signup. So it wasn't entirely impossible for Hayato to get matched with her via the "Sex Can't Room" app on Shohei's phone.
"I-I see... Ahaha..."
She felt guilty for suspecting him without cause.
But one question remained. Then why hide the paper with the rules? He could've used it as an excuse to demand sex from her.
Yet instead of blackmailing her, Hayato had hidden it.
'M-Maybe... to avoid the situation where he has to sleep with me?'
It was incredibly self-centered thinking... but possible.
If Shohei were here, he'd do the same... So maybe his uncle Hayato had a similar personality, hating to hurt others. No, it had to be that. Why else hide the paper?
If Hayato was as kind as Shohei, it was entirely plausible.
"Sigh... Anyway, shall we look for a door or something? Feels like we're trapped... but there has to be a way out."
"Yes!"
And when Hayato brought up finding an exit... Minami was convinced. He was a good person. Relieved, she replied loudly.
"Ahaha..."
But of course, "The Room You Can't Leave Without Having Sex" had no exit.
***
"Whew... This isn't working. Sorry, Sakura."
"Y-Yes?!"
About an hour later? When Hayato apologized after searching for an exit, Minami thought it was time for "that." Even if he was a good guy, they couldn't stay trapped forever.
Trapped in the "Sex Can't Room," sex was inevitable.
In the end, Minami bit her lip, steeling herself to sleep with Hayato.
"Can't find any way out. Guess we wait for someone to rescue us from outside."
"Ah, yeah..."
"Don't worry too much. We've got Siwoo and Chiaki. They'll figure something out and come get us. So let's trust them and wait."
"Mm, okay."
But what came out of Hayato's mouth was "let's wait."
Hayato, willing to try any slim chance. Seeing that, Minami thought of Shohei. As expected of the Fujikawa family— they shared traits.
"Haaah..."
"Ah, tired? Looks like we'll have to wait till tomorrow... Whew, no choice. Sakura, let's call it a night."
"Ugh... Sh-Should we?"
But even Shohei would give up now.
Several hours later, when Hayato said "let's sleep"... Minami thought this time it really was time for "that." With only one bed, they'd have to share... and that would inevitably lead to sex.
So Minami steeled herself once more for sex with Hayato.
"Night, Sakura."
"H-Hayato-san? Where are you going?"
"Mm? Oh, I'll sleep in the bathroom. Sharing a bed would be awkward, right?"
"Ah... B-But that'll be uncomfortable!"
"Nah, nah. It'd be more uncomfortable for both of us to share."
But again, Hayato didn't mention the "Sex Can't Room."
He still seemed to believe they could escape.

"Mm, he's so much like Shohei-kun... Haha... Even down to not touching without permission. At this point, is it the family upbringing? Grateful, but... Sigh, this is tricky..."
Minami sighed because of it.
For her, who'd given up on escape long ago, it was maddening. Sure, sex with another guy—not Shohei, but his uncle—was the worst... but unavoidable.
She'd already resolved herself since it had to happen eventually.
"Haaa..."
But Hayato kept dodging sex, and Minami got angry.
'You think I want to do this? I don't either... But he's a good guy... I can trust him... That's why I resolved myself!'
Still, she couldn't bring it up first.
If she revealed the "Sex Can't Room," she might get branded a slut who caused an accident to force sex. So Minami had to play innocent victim. Stepping up unnecessarily could distance her from the Fujikawa family.
"I'm sorry... Let's sleep together tonight, Hayato-san."
"No, can't do that. Turns out sleeping in the tub isn't bad."
Before long, a weird battle of wits began.
"Haa... Aren't you hot? Umm..."
"You caught a cold maybe. Stay under the blanket."
Hayato, knowing it was the "Sex Can't Room" but desperately avoiding sex; Minami, knowing it and desperately trying to make it happen. The two ran parallel lines.
"Hayato-san... Nightmares... Can you stay by my side when I sleep?"
"Sorry. I snore and grind my teeth. I'd be a nuisance."
Like that, Hayato and Minami were trapped in the "Sex Can't Room" for five whole days. Luckily, the room was stocked with food and water, making it possible.
"Hayato-san, over there... It hurts, so feed me..."
"Sorry. Both my arms just broke."
But the battle didn't last past a week.
"Haa... Damn it..."
"Hayato-san? What's wrong all of a sudden?"
"Sigh, Sakura... Don't get the wrong idea, but..."
Minami was the ultimate victor.
'I did it!'
Minami, who'd protected her pride, secretly clapped in joy. Now she could finally have sex with Hayato. Just as she'd hoped all week.
'Wait... But is this really something to be happy about?'
Whether it was truly good for Minami was another question entirely.
