Chapter Title: The Room You Can't Leave Without Having Sex (15)
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Among baseball fans, there's one very famous saying.
"After the crisis comes opportunity."
It means that once you get past a crisis where you're about to give up runs, your team's morale goes up and your chances of scoring skyrocket. But honestly, it's a brilliant line that applies not just to baseball, but to life in general.
A similar idea is captured in the word "preempting bad luck," and the reason I'm bringing it up now is to let you know that the nasty incident from last week ended up being a huge stroke of luck for me.
The woman who slapped my cheek with a full swing, the sound echoing like a crack—thanks to her embracing some monk-looking guy, I was able to spark Minami's misunderstanding.
I put on a suitably heartbroken expression, and Minami—who called me first—dragged me into the "Room You Can't Leave Without Having Sex." She hesitated for a moment in there, confessed her love to me, and when I accepted her, we became a couple.
"I'll talk to Sho-kun about it."
"You sure that's okay?"
"Yeah... I won't tell him everything... Just say I can't keep dating you anymore and break it off. After that, whoever I date next... Sho-kun won't have a clue."
"Kinda cold-blooded, huh?"
"Hmph... He probably won't even care that much? The guy's always got girls hanging off him even without me."
"Really? I never figured Shohei for the type."
"Anyway... enough about Sho-kun. Let's just clear our mission here."
And just like that, I cleared a B-rank by conquering the main heroine. But to nail the "challenge task," I needed at least an A-rank—which meant hitting Shohei where it hurts mentally. Sorry to poor, hardworking Shohei, but hey, a guy's gotta eat. I swallowed my unshed tears and headed home.
"Hey, guys, I'm back."

[Matching complete!] [You will now be taken to the "Can't Leave Without Sex" room.] [Have a great time!]
What the hell is this? Auto-matching kicked in?
Oh well, nothing I can do about it. Snooping around for Shohei intel will have to wait. Right now, priority one is dealing with whatever perv just matched with me. Alright, let's see who hit that match button... I opened my eyes, and...
"U... U-Uncle?!"
To my shock, Chiaki was the one waiting for me.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
To Fujikawa Chiaki, her uncle Fujikawa Hayato had always been nothing more than an annoying interloper. Ever since he moved into their house, it cut into the quality time she spent with her brother.
And to top it off, his job let him work from home, so he spent most of the day lounging around the house. That meant more time stuck with Hayato than with Shohei, leaving Chiaki constantly irritated.
She never complained out loud since he was an adult who slipped her pocket money now and then, but deep down, she couldn't help regretting that he had ever shown up.
And now, that regret had boiled over into pure rage inside Chiaki.
"U... U-Uncle?!"
The moment she laid eyes on Hayato, fury surged through her.
She exploded toward him. She had no idea why her uncle had suddenly appeared here, but right now, she needed answers—and she sure as hell wasn't going to forgive him for stealing Shohei's girlfriend.
"You... trash! Pervert! Dieeee!"
"Chiaki?! What the hell's gotten into you?!"
"Dieeee! You rotten bastard! Hiiiyaa!"
Chiaki vented her rage, swinging her fists wildly. But her punches were like cotton balls—Hayato didn't even flinch. Instead, she tired herself out first. Switching tactics, she sank her teeth into his arm.
"Aaaagh! Chiaki!"
"Grrrraaah!"
"Haa... you this worked up on purpose?"
"Grrraa! Grrraaaah!"
"Chiaki, calm down."
"Grrraa! Grr... haaah, haaah..."
Haito panicked, not knowing what to do... but once again, Chiaki wore herself out first. No matter what she tried, Hayato wasn't fazed at all. Realizing he was tougher than she thought, she backed off.
"Haa... I... I saw everything!"
"Saw what?"
"You and Minami-nee doing that stuff! I saw it allll!"
"Wha... what? Misunderstanding, Chiaki. I don't know what you think you saw, but just now..."
"You think I wouldn't know you two went to the "Can't Leave Without Sex" room?!"
With things this far gone, a mental attack was her only play. She whipped out her smartphone and played the video from when those two had been trapped in the room. Seeing Hayato's face turn serious, she raised her voice and piled on.
"And you just went again, right? I saw it all. The way you and sis suddenly got all close! That's gotta be because of that room! Am I wrong?!"
"......You're right. Never thought I'd get caught."
With irrefutable proof, Hayato had no choice but to admit it. Only then did Chiaki's excitement die down. But... as she came to her senses and looked around, she froze in confusion. Unfamiliar sofa, bed, furniture. Come to think of it, she'd been the one who hit "match" just moments ago.
"Wha... whaa?! Hold on, what is this?!"
Which meant this was... the "Room You Can't Leave Without Having Sex."
"Why the hell are you hereeee?!"
Chiaki had matched with Hayato instead of Shohei. Now, just like Minami, she'd have to sleep with her uncle to get out. Realizing this too late, she screamed. Sadly, screaming changed nothing.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
"You calmed down now?"
"Like hell I have?!"
"Hahaha... sorry, bad choice of words."
"Ughhh, what is this crap?! Having to sleep with my traitorous uncle who betrayed my bro... this is the lowest of the low! The worst! How do you have no shame?! Weren't you just dating Minami-nee now?! Shouldn't you at least turn off auto-matching?!"
"Fair point... I thought I had."
"You idiot! And if you deleted the app from bro's phone, you should've told him! I almost had to sleep with some rando... wait, maybe that would've been better... aaah! I don't know anymore! Point is, you're total trash, uncle!"
After a long talk explaining everything, Chiaki still had to sleep with her uncle no matter what. She wailed and cursed him out. If he hadn't messed with Shohei's phone from the start... none of this would've happened. That thought drove her insane.
'Why the hell did you stick your nose where it didn't belong and create this mess!'
But... she couldn't just blame Hayato forever. After all, she'd been the one to recommend the "Can't Leave Without Sex" room to Minami in the first place. In the end, it was a tragedy born from one screw-up piling on another. Too many people at fault to pin it on just one.
"And Minami-nee is worse than trash—total garbage!"
But an angry Chiaki needed a target for her rage.
So she decided to hate Sakura Minami.
Even though it hurt her heart... she'd rooted for those two purely for Shohei's sake. To be betrayed like this? Unforgivable. From what she heard, Minami confessed first... it was utterly ridiculous.
Cheating on a great boyfriend like Shohei with some other guy?
From now on, to Chiaki, Minami was a crazy, deranged bitch.
"Don't badmouth her that much... Minami went through a lot too."
"Haa? Defending her now?! Wake up, uncle! You think a girl who betrayed once won't do it again? She'll jump ship the second someone better than you comes along!"
"Chiaki, Minami's not like that."
"Woooow! Totally whipped, huh?! So things are all lovey-dovey between you two?!"
With that, Chiaki's resentment toward Hayato naturally faded a bit. Maybe it was the date excuse, but her uncle looked more handsome than usual as she stared at him... and started scheming.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth—and betrayal for betrayal.
She quickly came up with a way to get revenge on that crazy bitch and started undressing. She had to do it anyway, and she'd die before doing it willingly... but for revenge, she could endure. Steal my bro Shohei's heart? No way in hell... you think I'll just sit back and watch?
After the crisis comes opportunity—she turned being trapped in the "Can't Leave Without Sex" room into her reversal chance and climbed onto the bed. Minami would regret her mistakes soon enough. With that thought, Chiaki grabbed her smartphone.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
Minami returned home after her date.
Her body and mind were utterly exhausted, but she was so happy... she couldn't stop smiling. She lay on her bed, replaying the day's events.
The tender confession, the passionate kiss, and the intense sex that left them both fools for each other.
"Hehe... Hayato-saaan... I love you..."
Unthinkingly, Minami slipped her hand into her panties.

[Smartphone notification]
That's when Minami's smartphone chimed.
Was it a text from Hayato? Heart pounding, she checked the notification—tilted her head in confusion for a second... then screamed in horror. She dropped her phone in shock. Trembling, she picked it up and checked the photo again, but it was no illusion.
Chiaki was having sex with her uncle, Hayato.
