CH 42

I felt the distance was very short, even though it was the same road we had just come from. Kaede, who was standing next to me, didn’t seem to be paying attention to that, but seemed distracted by something up there.

When I also looked up, something white and cold was falling from the sky.

Yes, it was snowing, as anyone would have guessed.

“Ah, it’s snowing.” I said,

“Yes, it’s …beautiful….”

“Do you like snow?”

“I don’t know if I like it, I just look at it and think it’s beautiful” She replied,

I was trying hard to think of something to say, but couldn’t come up with anything.

Then Kaede gave a small chuckle.

“What is it?”

“Nothing, just thought that you think about me so much that you are desperately trying to think of something to say.”

“… shut up.”

Kaede poked my cheek and said, “You’re blushing, aren’t you?” However, perhaps realizing afterward what she had done, Kaede’s cheeks, which had just begun to lose their redness, suddenly turned red.

While we were doing that, we were already in front of the house. Only then did I think that the road, which I usually didn’t consider beautiful, was beautiful.

“We’re home.” 

“I’m home. Sorry We’re late.”

Mom said, “Too late!” and was at first angry, but she noticed something and came over to me with a worried look on her face.

“What’s wrong?”

“….I met up with my ex-girlfriend.”

“….I see”

“It’s okay now, I can’t dwell on the past forever either.”

I said and looked straight at My mom. She let out a sigh of relief and hugged me. She was trembling at that moment. Was she happy to see her son back on his feet?

After hugging me tightly, she hugged Kaede as hard as she could.

At that time, she repeatedly said “Thank you” to Kaede.

After a while, Kaede went to mom’s room to have her kimono put on.

I also went to the washroom to set my hair and waxed it.

After all, it took more time for women to dress up than for men.

However, after waiting for that time, there was a beautiful woman coming out of mom’s room wearing a kimono, different from the beautiful girl I saw during the day.

But for some reason, she had glistening sweat on her cheeks.

“They were amazing~ Kaede-chan’s b*****s”

And My mom was grinning and making a rubbing motion with her hands.

I was amazed at her for doing such a thing, but at the same time, I felt envious of her, so I couldn’t say anything.

“That’s ~probably an E.” My mom said,

“E?”

“It means she’s an E-cup.”

“Reiko-chan! You don’t have to tell that!”

Although she was wearing a kimono, she was posing with her arms covering her b*****s.

“What are you doing, you stupid parent?” I retorted,

“Ara? Aren’t you interested?”

“No, that’s not why I …”

I would be lying if I said I was not interested. But if I said I was, there was a chance that Kaede would stop talking to me, so I kept my answer vague and found that Kaede was looking at me with a blush on her cheeks.

She raised her eyebrows a little and was miffed.

“Ren-kun no ecchi.”

(T/N:- You all probably know this, it’s “Pervert”)

“Hah!?”

“Ren no Hentai”

“I don’t want my mother to tell me that.”

We were about to argue, but Dad quickly stopped us and the situation was settled.

“But, Ren? Don’t you have something to say to Kaede-chan?” My mom said,

I finally realized that when she told me that. I had only mentioned Kaede’s b*****s and had not yet complimented her on how well she looked in a kimono.

“Kaede! You look so beautiful in that kimono!”

Kaede was probably embarrassed to be told so loudly, so she punched me in the chest. It didn’t hurt at all, in fact it was heartwarming.

I was thinking how happy it would be if days like this continued.
