Chapter 23: Viola Rosemary in a State of Confusion
(Oh… what am I doing that’s so lewd…!)
As she leaned closer to Rest while teaching him, Viola Rosemary squirmed inwardly. If it were permissible, she felt like rolling on the floor out of sheer embarrassment. Although she appeared calm, pressing her chest against him, in reality, she was barely holding it together. It was merely her competitive spirit against her twin sister, Primula, that kept her shame at bay.
(Ugh… how can Primula be so unfazed? She’s so close to a boy our age, and on top of that, she’s wearing such a risqué outfit…!)
Viola was clad in a yellow negligee. While it was her loungewear, it wasn’t as scandalous as it sounded. However, the noticeable cleavage that had recently become apparent was on full display, and the fabric was thin. It was acceptable in front of family or other girls, but it was definitely not appropriate to wear in front of boys her age.
(I didn’t intend to wear something like this; it’s all Primula’s fault for wearing it first…)
Today, Viola was supposed to teach Rest, but she had no intention of doing so in a negligee. She had planned to wear a casual dress she usually wore. However, when her sister Primula emerged in a light blue negligee, Viola’s face flushed with embarrassment at her sister’s boldness. With a competitive fire ignited within her, Viola quickly changed into a similar negligee in a different color.
“Rest-sama, this problem will be easier to understand if you read this reference book!”
“Um… is this okay?”
“Excellent! Wonderful!”
As Rest solved a problem, Primula praised him and hugged him tightly. Viola, fueled by her competitive spirit, immediately pressed herself against him from the other side.
“Great job, Rest! Keep it up!”
(Th-That’s not fair… Primula is being so sneaky! She’s usually so quiet, always hiding behind me… Why is she being so proactive with Rest-kun?!)
To Viola, Primula was her adorable little sister. She was someone she could cherish without a second thought… a part of her soul she would trade her life for. She was as dear as her own heart. The sister she was supposed to protect now stood before her as a formidable rival for the affections of a single man.
(H-Have you grown without me noticing? Or is it because Rest-kun is special? Your chest has grown so much… At this rate, I might lose Rest-kun!)
Though the Rosemary sisters were nearly identical in hair and eye color, as well as personality, for some reason, Primula’s chest was slightly larger. Until now, Viola had never paid much attention to it, but now it nagged at her. Feeling inferior in her feminine attributes only fueled her anxiety.
“Oh, how about this, sister! Instead of a reward, how about I give you a little ‘punishment’ instead?”
When Rest made a careless mistake on an easy problem, Primula suggested this with a mischievous grin.
(P-Punishment? W-What are you saying, Primula!? What do you mean!?)
“That sounds great! Primula, that’s a brilliant idea!”
Despite the turmoil within her, Viola found herself voicing the exact opposite. Seeing Primula’s alluring expression, her eyes glistening with excitement—an expression that belied her fifteen years—made it impossible for Viola to back down.
“Then, it’s punishment time. Here we go…!”
“Rest-sama, please brace yourself…!”
(W-Wait… what am I doing to a man who’s neither my husband nor my boyfriend… Hyaaaaaaaah!?)
Following her twin sister’s lead, Viola reached out to administer the punishment to Rest. In reality, Viola was so flustered that she felt dizzy, on the verge of collapsing, yet she still found herself tracing her fingers along the body of the man she longed for.
