[TLN: We would be changing Nya~san’s pronoun from “it” to “she”]
“Nya~san’s video debut…?”
Yō, who had thought that Kasumi was going to ask him to pamper her every day, could not hide his confusion at the unexpected content.
Then he turned his gaze to Nya~san, who was being held up by Kasumi, her tail wagging slowly and loudly as if she thought she was being held.
It’s completely relaxed and in a good mood.
“It’s within the bounds of common sense, right? Because even Yō is trying to get me to appear in Akimi’s video.”
Kasumi had a point, and since Yō was asking Kasumi to be in the video, it wasn’t easy for Yō to refuse.
However, he still didn’t want to give Nya~san any stress, so Yō wondered how he should respond.
“…Just out of curiosity, why do you want Nya~san to make her video debut so badly?”
“Because she’s so cute! She’ll be popular!”
“If you’re trying to use Nya~san to make money―”
“That’s not it! I just wanted to show off my cute baby to everyone!”
Kasumi shook Nya~san up and down as if she was excited.
I’m sure Nya~san didn’t like that action, so she slapped Kasumi’s hand and jumped off.
Yō picked up Nya~san, who was rubbing up against his feet, and began to think about it while staring at Nya~san.
(Well, it’s not that I don’t understand what Kasumi is saying…)
Nya~san was not only cute to look at, but she also learned a lot of tricks.
So Yō could understand that she wanted to show off Nya-san to someone else.
And it’s no wonder that Kasumi, the person who taught her the trick, wanted everyone to see it.
(But, you know… cats don’t like to have camera lenses pointed at them…)
Yō’s previous video call with Marin, in which he brought out Nya~san, was able to get Nya~san’s attention because Marin was on the screen.
So it wasn’t stressful for her, but when it comes to shooting, he couldn’t say the same.
In addition, there was a possibility that he would be pointing a lens at her for a long period of time, and he just couldn’t bring himself to do it.
“Nya~san, are you okay with the lens?”
“Meow?”
He asked Nya~san, who was in his arms, tilted her head curiously.
“It doesn’t seem like she does.”
“No, you don’t! Nya~san simply doesn’t know what a lens is!”
“But she doesn’t seem to like it, does she?”
“That’s just Yō’s prejudice! Nya~san, you’re okay with it, right!?”
When Kasumi realized that Yō was ready to refuse, she took out her phone and showed the lens to Nya~san.
Nya~san then began to extend her hands towards Kasumi’s phone.
“Look, she’s interested!”
“…It’s true. But don’t get too close, okay? I don’t want you to get scratched.”
“Don’t worry, Nya~san is smart!”
Kasumi ignores Yō’s advice and moves her phone closer to Nya~san.
Nya~san’s eyes flashed for a moment, and then she slapped Kasumi’s phone as hard as she could, like a fly swatter. [TLN: Nya~san be like “Omae wa mou shindeiru.”. Ofc the phone went “Nani?” kekw]
This caused Kasumi’s phone to fall to the ground with a bang.
“Aaahhhh! My phoneeeee!”
“I told you so.”
Yō let out a sigh of exasperation as Kasumi shouted out after her phone fell.
Yō then gently stroked Nya~san’s head to calm her down after being startled by Kasumi’s voice.
“Nya~san, don’t do that with anything other than toys, okay?”
“Funya~”
Yō warned, but Nya~san only made a pleasant noise, and it was hard to tell if she was listening or not.
Besides, since Kasumi often showed Nya~san toys to play with, it was highly possible that Nya~san thought Kasumi’s phone was a plaything.
That’s why she couldn’t bring herself to pay attention to it that seriously.
In short, it was Kasumi’s fault for not listening to his advice.
“My phone…”
“Sorry, I’ll pay for the damage.”
“Uuuu~, I’m fine… But I’d be shocked if the pictures were blown up…”
Kasumi then started to check the contents of the phone.
There were photos of her and Yō that she had taken since her parents bought her the phone, and she was checking to see if any of them were missing.
Looking at Kasumi with tears in her eyes, Yō slowly opened his mouth, feeling sorry for her.
“…Well, it doesn’t look like she didn’t want to, so if it’s not for a long time, we could try it.”
“Really!?”
When Kasumi heard Yō’s words, her eyes lit up and she moved her face closer to Yō’s, which made Yō think that her earlier attitude was not an act.
However, Kasumi’s next words made him wonder if it was an act.
“Just so you know, we’ll be filming every day for as long as we can!”
“I see, so that’s what you’re aiming for…”
Yō understood why Kasumi had swallowed her words earlier and prioritized Nya~san’s video debut over her own pampering.
When Yō realized what she was aiming for, he knew in his heart that he was beaten.
(After all, what can I say, this person is really smart…)
Yō didn’t like the idea of bringing Nya~san out of the house.
He’s afraid that she’ll get attached to some strange insect or be attacked by an animal or something.
That’s why it’s clearly impossible to shoot a video outside.
So the only option they would have to shoot somewhere was indoors, but considering the stress on Nya~san, it was obvious that they would shoot at Yō’s house in which Nya~san was familiar with.
This would inevitably mean that Kasumi would be able to spend time with Yō every day.
In Kasumi’s mind, there was a high probability that the proposal to spend every day with Yō would be rejected.
In fact, she thought there was a good chance that he would only accept her request to increase the number of days from one to two, so Kasumi took this measure.
This way, not only would Nya~san make her video debut, but Kasumi would be able to spend time with Yō every day.
She also thought that as long as they were together, Yō, who liked to be pampered, would pamper her.
As for Nya~san’s stress, Kasumi knew that if she played with her during the shoot, Nya~san would not feel stressed, but rather very happy, and she knew that if she showed Nya~san, Yō would have no choice but to accept it.
That’s why she took this measure.
Yō read that much and let out a big sigh.
“Is it okay if I’m in charge of the shooting?”
“Of course you can’t do that!”
“That’s a given huh~.”
Thinking that Kasumi had really gotten to him, Yō reluctantly agreed to her request.

Translator’s Afterword: Please be minded that the clickable link is just the raws. Whether I’m doing it or not in the future is not decided yet. As for RinTohsakan’s question from the last chapter, it took me 6 days if I’m not mistaken? Not only do I have my real life stuff to attend to, I also need to translate these chapters. If there’s no updates of losing heroine chapters tonight, I’ll be doing a tenkosaki chapter tomorrow.
Tsurgy

This guy is just leading on 2 girls at this point.
RinTohsakan
