Chapter 39: I was forced to confess that I like her to her mother.
TL: Mowaso
ED:Anima
I was forced to confess that I like her to her mother.
In conclusion, I ate everything.
If you ask me if it was too much, it was.
However, Shijouin-sans enthusiasm for this luncheon was fully reflected in the dish quantity.
I kept moving my fork and spoon, rapidly filling my stomach with the food created by the hands of the person I love.
As a result, I could only see clean plates lined up in front of me.
(I-Its tight my belly is packed like a trunk)
In retrospect, all I had to say was, Im sorry, but I dont think I can fit anything else in my stomach anymore, and no one would suffer, so why did I insist on eating it all?
The answer is simple, I couldnt say that to the person I longed for, who did her best to prepare all these dishes for me.Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com
It appears that my heart has more of a high school boys spec than I thought it had.
Phew yeah, it was delicious it was really great, Shijouin-san.
Fufu Sorry for the poor quality, I thought I made a lot, but Im glad you ate it all!
Haha, its pretty light
In reality, I was sweating heavily and it was hard to move my body, but I faked it and put on a strong smile.
After all, a boys appetite is amazing my dad was saying recently, Its getting harder for me to eat fried food in large quantities When I was younger, I could eat as much karaage as I wanted And he looked a bit sad.
Yeah, I know that sadness very well.
If I did the same thing with my 30-year-old body, I might have ended up in the hospital.
(It made me sad to feel old when I reached the limit of my oil tolerance just by eating one plate of kalbi at a yakiniku restaurant and started to like Japanese food that had less flavor)
Speaking of your dad, when you told your parents you were inviting me to your house, did he object or anything? When I talked to your mom earlier, she didnt seem like she was
Eh? No, he didnt object at all. When I asked if I could invite my friend who took care of me during the test, they both nodded immediately.
Oh, I see. Im glad to hear that.
I thought her father might have had mixed feelings about his daughter inviting a boy over to their house but apparently, my fears were unfounded.
Hes the president of a large company, and a very tolerant and generous father.
Now that the lunch is done, Ill bring the dessert!
(What?!)
Aaaaaaaahhh! T-Thats right!
Shijouin-san said, Ill make lunch and sweets for you! Thats right! Thats right! There will also be dessert!
(No, no with my current digestive power, I could probably fit in dessert after an hour or so, but right now, its impossible!)
I cant help it. Im going to confess honestly how bloated I am now
Hmm, theres no need to be so hasty, right Haruka?
Oh, Mom!?
When I noticed, Shijouin-sans mother, Akiko-san, was standing beside her.
But when they stand side by side, they look more like sisters than parent and child
Although I opened the door and came in, youre not surprised It seems you were both too engrossed in chatting.
Akiko-san chuckled as she made fun of us.
I think you should take a break before dessert since Niihama-kun ate a lot. Im sure youll be able to enjoy the dessert better that way.
Eh!? Yeah, yeah, thats right. It seems that some rest will increase the appetite.
It surprised me to hear her sending me a rescue boat as if she saw through the condition of my stomach, I took it as a sign of goodwill and replied to her.
Yes, exactly! She always blames herself But then again, you dont really look like a high school student. Its more like youre already an adult.
Im sorry, but Im an adult with 30 years of life experience in a adolescent body
Well, right now my senses are dragged down by my young body and my mind is in a 16-year-old mode.
You seem to know a lot about her, so youve been keeping an eye on Haruka for a while now, right?
Well, its true that we have had a lot of opportunities to talk lately.
Looking back on it, I really have grown closer to Shijouin-san.
Unlike in my previous life, Ive learned many things about her and even got invited to her house and spoke with her mother like this. I still cant believe this is happening.
So theres something I really want to make sure of. Its a little embarrassing for me to ask you straight out, but
Akiko-san was fidgeting as she struggled to say something.
What is it? What is she going to ask me?
You like her as a girl, dont you?
Buho!
Seriously, Oi! What the hell is she asking me?
And dont you dare blush yourself after asking!
Shes just as pure as her daughter!
So, what about it? If you only have a pure friendship, please, I want you to say so.
No, I mean
Its not that Im a good person who cant tell lies, but I know that this is not the right place to tell a lie.
But confessing my feelings to her mother before Shijouin-san What kind of play is this?
That is I like her. Im really surprised at myself, but my feelings are still growing stronger.
Kya! Kyaaaaah! I knew it!
When I told Akiko-san frankly without shame, her face lit up.
Whoa, her eyes are also sparkling.
Oh, my! I like your straightforward youthfulness! I see so much affection for Haruka wow
Akiko-san showed an ecstatic expression, but the more she was pleased with my statement, the more I felt ashamed, and I could tell that my cheeks were turning red.
Ah! Now that Ive thought of it, its so embarrassing for me, as a mother, to get excited by hearing someone say that they like my daughter, its like a very perverted hobby!
Please realize it sooner! Its me whos more embarrassed!
It seems that Shijouin-san inherited her innocence from her mother
Oh! Im sorry. Youre really embarrassed, but as her mother, it was necessary for me to ask Niihama-kun about his feelings!
Clenching both her fists, Akiko-san continues with her passionate speech.
I welcome the fact that a good child like you has feelings for Haruka! Im sure there will be some turbulence right off the bat, but Ill support you as much as I can!
O-Oh?
Not that I had any intention of doing this at all, but can I assume that this means I got approval from Shijuoin-sans mother?
Thank you very much. But, you know, please stop saying things like that Hearing it from her mothers mouth Im dying from embarrassment here.
Ufufu, Sorry, If you want, I can give you some time alone with Haruka in her room as an apology.
What? No, no, thats a bit!
Fufu, youre getting flustered~
Akiko-san laughed innocently at my blushing and flustered face, looking like the grown-up Shijouin-san herself.
TLN: I really want to TL the next 5 chapters faster but Im quite busy this past few days, but Ill try to do at least 1 chapter daily.
