Chapter 4: What it means.

Anne was staring at me after I asked her what Netorare is.
 She looks extremely confused right now.

“Henry, are you into that kind of play?” (Anne)

“What do you mean kind of play? Is it a genre about games?” (Henry)

“No, it’s you we are talking about, you have no interest on any entertainment media, 
I’m sorry. Can you please explain where did you learn about it?” (Anne)

“No more like I just saw that it’s really popular recently?” (Henry)

“You really are clueless aren’t you?” (Anne)

Of course I am, why do you think I’m asking you about it in the first place?

“My bad, it’s related to uhh you know what I see.” (Henry)

“Ah that, wait you saw someone with that genre?” (Anne)

Yes, Anne actually knows that I can see genres floating a top of the people,
 or more like I told her when we were young,
 I don’t think she believes me or what but from her conclusions the things
 I see are what genre that person likes.

“Yeah it’s actually recently I saw someone with that genre so I was curious.”  (Henry)

“I see, well to sum it up, that is one of a hentai genre” (Anne)

“Hentai?” (Henry)

“Yes, it’s a genre of lewd comics and videos; 
basically it’s cheating your partner with another person.” (Anne)

“So an affair then?” (Henry)

“Yes, that involves with uhh intense copulation?” (Anne)

I’m dumbfounded, hold on Justin and Haley only started dating like yesterday,
 don’t tell me that they already done the deed but when.
 Also there is one thing I realized.

“Why do you know this kind of genre, Anne?” (Henry)

Thinking about it this are x rated stuff right?
 Doesn’t that mean she has delved into this kind of entertainment? 
With that being said I stared at Anne with a gaze of contempt.

“Wait it’s not like that! I just a-a-accidentally stumble upon this too! ” (Anne)

“Alright, fess up I’ll listen” (Henry)

“Y-you fool as if I’ll let you tell my fetish so easily!” (Anne)

“Fetish? What?” (Henry)

I seriously have no idea what she’s talking about right now. 
Anne then clears her throat.

“W-well putting it aside for now,
 you say that this is the first time you’ve seen a change in what you see, right?” (Anne)

She’s trying to avoid getting questioned any further;
 well I’ll bite so I nodded.

“Don’t you think that person’s preference just changed to like that? 
I mean it’s pretty normal for people to change what they like.” (Anne)

“I guess you are right.” (Henry)

It’s true that people do change what they like,
 but I still feel like it’s too unnatural for it to change this soon.

“Henry, I think it’s time you should explore the digital age.” (Anne)

Anne suggested it, but maybe she is right. 
Not knowing what is happening right now is kinda ticking me off.

“Well, where should I start?” (Henry)

“Are you seriously asking a girl to show you hentai?” (Anne)

“Well, I’m much more comfortable asking you about it, Pervy Anne” (Henry)

“Don’t call me that! It’s not what you think!” (Anne)

“Yes yes, it is as you say.” (Henry)

“By the way, is that a fountain pen you got there?” (Anne)

“What?” (Henry)

I looked at what I’m holding and it’s the fountain pen that my dad gave to me just the other day, 
strange I could have sworn I put this in my bag.

“Ah yeah, dad gave this to me, it doesn’t have an ink though” (Henry)

“Then what’s the point of it?” (Anne)

“Lucky charm I guess?” (Henry)

After a while of bantering, the bell rang and we headed back to class. 
Anne did teach me some pointers about our topic in the infirmary 
so I should look at it later after I get home. 
Also she keeps telling me she keeps telling me that she prefers vanilla, 
which I got confused because I swear she loves chocolate over vanilla.

Class ended and I was immediately planning to head home 
but then Anne ended up inviting me to go with her to an arcade.
 I accepted cause it’s been a while since we hang out after class,
 also it’s quite rare for her to invite me since most of the time; she vanishes after class.

While on the way to the arcade I am secretly looking at other people’s genre above their head,
 to see if there is a genre I’m not familiar with but so far it all genre that I encounter from day to day.
 We arrived at the arcade and started playing. 
Crane games, shooting games, racing games we played every possible game we could play.

“Anne, how come you are really good at this?” (Henry)

“Hmph, I’m not just good, I’m the best, and as always you suck at games” (Anne)

Anne says triumphantly while pushing out her chest 
standing near a machine with a word “You are the High Scorer”.

“Of course I would suck; 
I barely even go to a place like this! 
Hold on, is this where you have been frequenting this days?
 Does Auntie know about this?” (Henry)

“N-n-n-n-no I don’t, also don’t bring mother into this!
 She’ll take away my allowance!” (Anne)

After a while we had enough of playing and decided to head home.
 Upon arriving at my house it seems my little sister was back and was already preparing to make dinner.
 After telling her of my return I headed to my room and started to search netorare, 
Anne advised me to lock the door so I did and she was right.
 If my little sis walk in on me and found out
 I’ve been reading this deprave thing she will look at me with disgust.

This is also a good time to properly evaluate what I see above people’s head.
 So first, I need to understand the genre. 
Netorare is a genre of hentai where the story focuses on the affair of the leading female character.
 Oh boy, I’m starting to have a really bad premonition.

Next is that Solo male and Solo Female,
 from the description that I have read, 
there are no multiple characters involve. 
It’s just the female and male lead who will be the focus then.

There is also mindbreak and Ahegao, 
which is describe something akin to enjoying pleasure 
through sexual activity to the point of getting unconscious.
This is mostly common to female leads and one of the reasons they continue to engage in the affair.

The more I try to know about this new genre, the messed up it gets. 
No matter how you think about it this is too immoral, 
how can anyone like this stuff? 
Moreover is the fact that it is really popular. 
While I’m thinking this,
 I heard my little sister knocking and immediately close my tab.

“Kuya Henry, dinner is ready so get out of your room” (Little Sister)

“Okay I’m coming” (Henry)

I got out of my room and ate dinner after I return to my room and lay down on my bed.
 Another question popped into my mind.

Who is the main lead?
