The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

Chapter 124: The end of Rito's bad day

(3rd pov)

Rito was currently flying across the hallway while holding onto the panties as if his life depended on them. He was also occasionally bumping other students. Be it female or male, his 'lucky pervert' didn't discriminate and stole clothes from them all just to get to Haruna as fast as possible.

That day the legend of cloth stealer was born.

Fortunately for Rito was that no one saw his face, but his legend would leave on terrorizing the students for many years to come.

Back to Rito, he was flying now covered in the uniforms and underwear of many students. He was unrecognizable at this point, so when he got to Haruna, she wasn't able to recognize him.

To be honest, it was the first lucky instance for Rito today, and he was thankful for that even when he was slammed against the floor by Haruna.

At least she now had her panties, so the only thing to return was a bra unless something unexpected would happen, of course.

On one of the breaks, Rito somehow was able to ask Haruna to wait after school behind the building. He, however, couldn't bring himself to return the bra.

If only he knew that he could leave this piece of underwear on Haruna's desk, but he was too busy being embarrassed by the fact that he was in possession of said bra to even think about it.

Ryoto, however, found it strange that practically nothing fun happened while he was in the classroom. The feeling was similar to the kid that was sick one day, and suddenly the school turned into a carnival. Even though he wanted to witness Rito's confession, he decided against it. Privacy was important in moments like these, after all.

What Ryoto didn't know was that the penguins and Utsu didn't want to do anything unnecessary around him as the experiments they performed were kept secret from him.

Today he didn't go straight home. Instead, he went to karaoke with others.

On Rito's end, he was preparing to confess. He was rightfully nervous but also hopeful. The only problem that Rito was aware of was that he still had Haruna's bra.

There was also a problem of penguins that he wasn't aware of.

In one way or another, the confession will be... memorable for Rito and Haruna.

Behind the school building, one could see Rito waiting for Haruna. He still had her bra in his bag.

Rito was tense the whole time and went over what he planned to say multiple times already so he wouldn't fail.

He finally heard the sound of footsteps getting louder. With every incoming footstep, his heartbeat increased, and when his crush stopped in front of him, he could feel his heart trying to break free from his chest.

There she stood, his crush. He has been waiting for this moment for a long time, and today, he'll finally confess.

Haruna's face was flushed because of missing underwear, but who knows, maybe this experience will awaken something in her.

Rito: "S-Sairenji-san!"

Haruna was startled by Rito.

Haruna: "Y-yes!?"

Rito: "I-I wanted to tell you something."

She nodded.

Rito: "S-since a long time, I wanted to tell you something. Sometimes I couldn't find the courage to do that. Other times I was interrupted by something..."

As he kept going, Rito was becoming gradually more confident in what he was saying.

He closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them, you could see confidence in his eyes.

Rito: "Sairenji-san, I-"

He couldn't finish as a fish with human legs and arms was running towards him, grabbed him, and kept running without stopping.

Rito: "Not you again!!!!"

This fish was one of Lala's and Kowalski's experiments. It's not the first time this fish interrupted Rito's confession. It happened one time in the past and after that, no one was able to track it down. It became somewhat of an urban legend. It could also apparently drive a car and a truck.

Skipper: "Not again, you sly bastard! Rico, Private, get him! Kowalski, come up with a plan!"

As the fish was getting away, the penguins planned on catching it. It wouldn't be an easy task, but it doesn't matter.

Skipper: "You too, furball!"

Utsu: "Woof!"

Skipper: "Don't talk back to me! We need to stop this fish!"

Just like that, Haruna was left alone behind the school building, confused at what had just happened.

(Ryoto's pov)

Singing 'Cinderella' is fun no matter how many times I've done it, and this time I did a flip. Every time I'm just more into it than the time before.

I also sang a duet with Lala, and she, not surprisingly, has a beautiful voice.

When we returned home, Mikan was making dinner, and Rito was sitting on the sofa in a depressing mood.

It looks like the confession didn't go as planned. Like a good big brother, I should help him feel better about it, so I sat next to him.

Ryoto: "...So what happened?"

Rito: "...Am I cursed?"

Well, that came out of nowhere.

Ryoto: "Not cursed. Maybe unlucky, but not cursed."

Rito: "...I couldn't confess today just like before. First, it was banana peel, then Kotegawa-San, later a hole in the floor and, at last, the fish."

He looked like he had lost all hope.

Ryoto: "...Are you stupid?"

Rito: "Huh?"

Rito didn't expect to hear this.

Ryoto: "Did you try everything in your power?"

Rito: "No..."

Ryoto: "Then what did I tell you before? Was one bad day enough to keep you down?"

Rito: "No..."

Ryoto: "And don't you forget it because the next time I see you depressed because of something stupid, I'll confess to Haruna first!"

Rito: "Nii-san!"

Mikan looked at us from the kitchen and smiled while Lala was watching 'Magical girl Kyouko'."

Right now, I was in the studio discussing manga with Zastin about the next chapter, but suddenly Jugemu walked in.

Jugemu: "Ryoto, why didn't you tell me that Lala is pregnant!?"

Zastin: "What!!!?"

Oh shit...
