ED: Anima

By the way, hows Haruka doing at school? Does it look like shes doing well?

Well there used to be a little bit of jealousy from other girls because of her beauty, but lately she hasnt had any trouble and has been enjoying school events with a smile.

After the storm of an unexpected and intense interview passed, Tokimune-san and I were leaving the room together and moving towards the living room.

In a normal house, it would be a short distance away, but in such a large mansion, its like moving to a different classroom.

By the way, when we ate together at the cultural festival, she mentioned that her favorite food was yakisoba. It was because the taste reminded her of the memories of when she was a child and went to a festival with her parents.

I see. Those few memories seem to be hard to forget, Is it because I made her feel lonely back then Hmm? No, wait, when we ate together at the cultural festival ? Haruka and you went together?

Oops. Oh, we finally arrived at the living room. I almost got lost.

Dont try to fool me, you idiot! What the hell were you doing when I wasnt watching!?

Perhaps it was because we deeply and honestly exchanged our thoughts in the short time we talked, but both Tokimune-san and myself had changed the way we treated each other, as if some kind of a shell had been removed.

This is probably a positive thing. At the very least, Tokimune-san has acknowledged my existence.

Ah Niihama-kun!

As soon as I entered the living room, Shijouin-san rushed to me.

Are you okay!? Did my dad say something terrible to you?

She was probably waiting here during the entire time that Tokimune and I were talking, and was worried about me. Her kindness gently soothed my nerves that had been overworked during the interview.

No, Im fine. Theres nothing to worry about.

How can it be nothing when your clothes are soaked with sweat?

Ah yeah, I was covered in sweat the whole time we were talking.

And my shirt was still slightly transparent.

Dad!

O-Oh, what is it, Haruka?

The tip of the spear was turned towards Tokimune-san, who backed away while letting out a squeak.

What on earth were you trying to accomplish by locking up Niihama-kun for an hour?

Umm Well, Tokimune-san also said that Im lacking in youth-like qualities

Im sorry. Although Im 16 years old physically, Im an old man mentally.

I mean, its impossible for a normal high school student to get through that pressure interview without some kind of cheat!

Niihama-kun! We were supposed to have tea time now, but if we stay here any longer My dad might say something strange again, so lets move to another place!

Shijouin-san, who was angry with Tokimune-san, suddenly made such a suggestion to me.

By the way, Tokimune-san, who was denounced by her daughter, is nodding off behind her with a sad expression on his face.

Oh, thats fine, Haruka, but which room are you going to use?

Yes! Since I brought him here, Ill show him to my room!

What?

The astonished voices of Tokimune-san and I are in sync as Shijouin-san casually drops a bomb with a smile.

Whoa, her room!?

Her room means the room where Shijouin-san always change her clothes, relaxes and sleeps?

W-Waiiiiit! What are you talking about, Haruka? Youre already a high school student, so you need to stop behaving innocently! Bringing a man into your room!? Theres no way Ill allow that! What are you thinking!? Nn-mmm!?

Fufu, lets keep quiet for a moment, Tokimune-san.

Akiko-sans arm reached out from behind Tokimune-sans back and blocked his mouth from saying anything further.

Ill handle this person like this, so both of you go quickly~. Ah, Fuyuizumi-san! Bring tea and sweets to Harukas room!

Yes, madam.

Tokimune-sans face was tightly held and he was screaming Nnnnnnnn! Mmmm! While the young housekeeper at the end of the room nodded her head without raising an eyebrow.

Thanks, mom! Lets go, Niihama-kun!

Ah, ah

Seeing the famous company president moaning and groaning as his wife held him back, I vaguely realized the true power relations in this house.

No matter how rich or famous a family is, the universal law of mankind iswomen are the strongest.
