268.2 A Penguin's Soliloquy - Story About Buying My Classmate Once A Week
A Penguin's Soliloquy (Around Chapter 268) Dear Kamo-chan-san, It's me, yes, me—Pen-chan. Right now, I'm in Shiori-san's bed. Every night, I sleep beside her. Consequently, returning to where you are isn't something I can do. I thought about writing a letter to Kamo-chan-san, the platypus living in Hazuki-san's room. However, my flippers aren't exactly made for holding pens, nor do I have any paper. So, no letters can be written. More than that, I need to figure out how to deal with this situation. —What exactly is an exchange, anyway? I don't understand why I've been swapped with Wani-san or how long I'll have to stay here. My owner, Hazuki-san, has visited this room numerous times, yet she never takes me back with her. I long to sleep beside Hazuki-san, who I adore, just like before. Yet, the habit of sleeping alongside Hazuki-san has transformed into the habit of sleeping beside Shiori-san. The routine of being petted and kissed by Hazuki-san has turned into one where I'm smacked on the head, my beak pinched, and my belly squeezed by Shiori-san. Even though, sometimes, she does embrace me and talk to me, which I somewhat appreciate, Shiori-san is far too rough in how she handles me. Ideally, I'd like her to talk to me more and shower me with kisses, akin to what Hazuki-san does. Given that I don't know when I can return to Hazuki-san, I don't think it's too much to ask for that kind of treatment. Sure, there are complaints I have, but there are also good things I didn't have when I was with Hazuki-san. For one, she ensures I'm properly tucked into bed under a blanket. Shiori-san puts me to sleep in the bed and pulls the covers over me. Since Hazuki-san changes my resting place based on her mood, I think Shiori-san's approach should be acknowledged. This room has other merits, too. At night, Black Cat Roro-chan-san keeps me company in conversation. Since Roro-chan-san is a good and cute creature, it would be nice if it came to play in Hazuki-san's room, too. Kamo-chan-san, living in Hazuki-san's room, is often silent and cranky. It might slightly resemble this room's owner, Shiori-san, but Shiori-san is far more favored by Hazuki-san than Kamo-chan-san ever is. I want to have affection for what Hazuki-san likes, so I've grown to rather like Shiori-san quite a bit. I won't oppose Hazuki-san and Shiori-san getting along, even if it's just a little. Therefore, I hope I can return to Hazuki-san's room soon. There are so many things I need to report to Hazuki-san. Such as how kind Shiori-san is to Roro-chan-san. However, she tends to be a bit cold to Hazuki-san. Also, how Shiori-san kisses Roro-chan-san, but still kisses Hazuki-san more frequently. These are matters I wish to report to Hazuki-san. I want to speak extensively about Shiori-san with Hazuki-san, be petted a lot, and be kissed a lot. So I wish to return to Hazuki-san's room soon, but I don't know how to make that happen. The only thing I comprehend right now is that Hazuki-san and Shiori-san are about to have pasta. Earlier, Shiori-san was looking up a Carbonara recipe, so I'm certain of it. However, she hasn't been gone from the room long, so it's uncertain if it turned out well. Most likely, it didn’t. From what Roro-chan-san has said, Shiori-san is rumored to not be very adept at cooking. Hazuki-san is kind and probably eats anything while declaring it delicious, but I'm concerned about my owner's stomach. Still, why would Shiori-san decide to make something like Carbonara when she's not good at cooking? I don't understand. It doesn't make sense. Human beings are so complicated.
