Chapter 159: [Super Darling]

<<...It's an earthquake.>>

The ground was shaking.

Angu Ogu let out a high-pitched scream, "Aaaaah!"

I chuckled and said, "Come on, you don't need to scream like it's the end of the world.".

Sure, there was some shaking, but it wasn't that big of an earthquake.

It should calm down soon enough.

However, she seemed to be feeling quite scared.

<<Aaaah! We're gonna die! Help us, God!>>

<<Um, Ogu?>>

Yeah.

If it were just me, I'd be lying in bed without a care.

Well, it's not a good idea to be too careless either.

I poked Angu Ogu lightly.

<<Ogu, come here.>>

<<...Iroha?>>

I pulled Angu Ogu, who seemed confused, close to me.

We both hid under the desk.

<<It's okay. I'm with you, Ogu.>>

Angu Ogu clung to me tightly and closed her eyes.

As expected, the earthquake subsided quickly.

<<Ah, ah. I hope the stream didn't cut off. Is everyone okay? I think most of today's viewers are from the U.S., so it might not be a big deal. "Hey, Japanese viewers~?">>

I looked at the computer monitor.

Japanese chats started appearing immediately.

>It wasn't that big, so I'm fine

>It shook a bit, though

>But I can't stop watching the stream!

Well, that's the kind of reaction you'd expect.

I checked social media and the news just in case. But it really wasn't a big deal.

<<Look, Ogu. How long are you going to be scared? It's over now.>>

<<Really? Am I alive?>>

>When I used to live in Japan, even for minor earthquakes, the electricity would go out right away, so I'm worried (Chilean Esp.)

>↑What are you talking about? Oh, you were from Chile LOL

<<Oh, you're right. It's Chilean Spanish. Thanks for your concern!>>

>As expected from the only country in the world to experience a magnitude 9.5 earthquake. It's a whole different level

>Don't compare everything to your country www

>Your country's earthquake resistance technology, which doesn't even cause power outages, is top-notch.

Angu Ogu was holding her head in confusion.

It seems she's bewildered by the differences in common practices.

<<Ogu, you'd get used to it if you lived in Japan. Like we were talking about infrastructure earlier, for something like this, you don't need to go as far as keeping doors open or filling the bathtub.>>

<<The bathtub!? Do Japanese people worry about baths even in times like this?>>

<<"Nooo! It's not about baths! It's for when the water supply gets cut off! You use it to flush the toilet!>>

<<Toilet talk even in times like this?>>

<<Not like that! I mean it differently!>>

>That's... yeah, I have to admit, I'm stumped too. (Chilean Esp.)

>Even Chileans have conceded defeat and are laughing. (U.S.)

>Japanese people are always like that, talking about baths and toilets. (U.S.)

Stop your prejudice!

I'm thinking about other things too!

For example. Like food, work, savings, etc.?

I'm sorry.

I'm all about VTubers, so I don't know what other people are interested in.

<<Well, I think it's okay to send a message of concern to your family at a time like this.>>

As I said this, I sent a hand sign to the Secret Service, who had sneaked over to check on us, saying, "We're fine over here.".

Angu Ogu didn't notice,

She remained hugging me the whole time.

<<... Huh. All right, Ogu. I'll let stay over tonight.>>

<<What? Is that okay?>>

<<You can't leave a girl in this condition all alone in a foreign country.>>

<<Yes, Iroha!>>

The words "This is super darling." appeared in the comment section.

Who's the husband?
