「君と始まったのも、このバーだったね」

ナズとあのバーに来ていた、ナズとの関係をはっきりする為に。この関係は居心地が良かった。だけどこの関係は好意があるかどうかを放置している関係だった。星さんに僕の事が好きだと言い寄られたよ。僕がそう言うと「よかったじゃないか、おめでとう」とナズはにこりと僕を祝福した。その素直さに、少し僕は肩透かしを食らった。いいと思うのか、それで？「いいって何がかい？」僕が星さんを選んで。「いいに決まっているじゃないか。私達はそのつもりだったんだろう？」とナズはそう言った。僕の顔を見ないで。そもそも星さんと言い寄る為にお前と体を重ねていた関係がおかしいと思う。途中から星さんの事関係なしにいちゃついていたじゃないか？、僕らは。「・・・何がいいたいか、分らないな」そう言ってナズはグラスを呷った。僕は、今お前に好意に近い物を抱いている。確信的じゃないけど。星さんに対しても、以前程でもないけど、好意がある。今まで僕らは何回も体を重ねてきて、お前には無関心だったのに好意に近いものを持っている。お前はどうなんだ？。あんな風に献身的に抱いてくれて、お前は僕に対して何も思っていないのか？自意識過剰な話かも知れないけど、お前の気持ちを聞かないと、星さんに返事が出来ない。僕はそう、誤魔化しせずにナズに伝えた。するとナズは遠い目をしてそして僕の顔を向き、「私は君の体以外興味がないよ。自分の体の乾きを潤すためさ、君のは大きいしね」とにこりと笑った。それは本当か。と僕が問いただすと「勘違いしないでくれ。私が君に心傾ける事は一生ないよ」はっきりと僕の目を見て言った。その言葉には強い意思を感じられて、僕が入り込む余地は無いと言いたげだった。分ったよ。お前の意思は。僕は用件は伝えたから帰ると言うと、ナズは残ってまだ飲み続けると言った。「ご主人様が君の懐に居る間に捕まえ給えよ。いつまでも、同じ状況に居られるはずがないから。懐に居る間に・・・ね。」帰り際、ナズは帰りかける僕にそう言葉をかけた。僕はその言葉を無言で受け取った。本当に僕に気が無いのなら、何故星さんが僕に好意を抱いているのを知っていて僕を誘ったんだ？。その気が無かったなら、お前はただ僕と星さんをおちょくっただけの嫌な奴になるぞ？そう聞こうとしたがやめた。これを聞くとこいつは嫌な奴にならざる得ないだろうから。僕らは別れを告げて、僕はバーを後にしたわっふる・・・

Ugh, I feel bad approving something this ugly.

Sorry for that. I'm just keeping up with the story is all. Nothing more.

So this is a alternate end to this story?

Yep it is. Must be Shou's route.

Oh sure, I wasn't grumping at you but at the artist. Keeping the story complete is also why I approved it, after all.

Listen, not angry here, I just want to clear something up. This is the second comment I've had voted down because it was in Spanish (At least I think that was why. If asking for a translation in the comments is frowned upon, I've learned my lesson and please disregard the remainder of this comment.) Is using a language besides English discouraged?

Ever heard of the tower of Babel?
That's how the comment section would look like if everyone here used their native language.

Proto tu mluvíme anglicky.

understood

Hmm, at Tower of Babel they all spoke the same language. No variety at all. God decided to be a troll and make it so people couldn't understand each other afterward.

Commentary translation (Sentences in 「quotation marks」 are Naz's spoken lines; Sentences in italics are the main character's spoken lines; everything else is the main character's narration):

「You and I started here in this bar, didn't we?」

I went to that bar with Naz, to make things clear about our relationship. I was comfortable with this relationship. But it was a relationship where the question of our feelings has been ignored. On the other hand, Shou-san has approached me with a confession.

When I told Naz that, she smiled and blessed us, 「Good for you, congrats.」 I was a bit thrown off by how unaffected she was.

Are you fine with that? 「What do you mean, fine with that?」

About me choosing Shou-san. 「Of course I'm fine. That's what you and I were working towards, right?」 said Naz. Without looking at me.

I thought it was strange to sleep with you in order to court Shou-san in the first place. Didn't we make out without regard to Shou-san from midway through? 「... I don't know what you're trying to say,」 said Naz, before she took a sip from her glass.

Right now, I feel something close to love for you. Although I'm not absolutely certain. The same goes for Shou-san, although not as much as before. You and I have slept with each other many times, and I developed love-like feelings for you even though I didn't care about you before. What about you? You were so devoted during our sex, do you not feel anything about me? Maybe it's just my egotism, but I can't give Shou-san a reply until you tell me how you feel. I told Naz all that without mincing words.

After I said that, Naz looked far ahead, then turned to face me. 「I'm only interested in your body. I was just satisfying my body's yearning, and your thing is big,」 said Naz, smiling.

Is that really true?, I asked. 「Don't get me wrong. I'll never fall for you,」 she said bluntly while looking me in the eyes. I felt the strong purpose behind those words; it was to make sure there is no space I can slip through to her.

I understand now. Your intent. I told her that I'll leave now since we've discussed what I wanted to discuss, and she replied that she'll stay and keep drinking.

「Make sure you get a firm grip on Master while she's in your embrace. Don't think that things will stay the same forever. While she's in your embrace... Got it?」 Naz told me as I was leaving. I received those words silently.

If you really didn't care about me, why did you seduce me even though you knew Shou-san has feelings for me? If you didn't care, you would just be a mean-spirited person who stepped in between me and Shou-san, you know? I decided not to ask her those questions. Because, if I did ask her, then she would really have to act the mean-spirited person's role.

We bade each other farewell, then I left the bar...

Think of it as them having edema from being alcoholics, and Nazu being a parody of the ET-necked Murasa from the "Captain Murasa's Ass Anchor" MV.

But yeah... ugh.
