Chapter 82

[Ibuki Yuko’s care for you seems a bit excessive.]

[Before this, you used to get her care by acting spoiled, but now, without you even asking, Ibuki Yuko takes the initiative to serve you. She brushes your teeth, feeds you, and even bathes you...]

Bathes me?

Can you elaborate?

Minami Yuuki keenly grasped the keyword.

However, the simulator paid no heed to his request and did not transmit any memory scenes.

[You realize this care is a form of dependence; the girl fears being apart from you, hence her meticulous care. Of course, it also contains her affection for you.]

Upon reading this, Minami Yuuki sighed in relief. It turned out the previous ominous feeling was just about excessive care, and he had thought something major had happened.

Not that excessive care was nothing to worry about, but compared to the girl’s previous life-threatening depressive moods, this was a minor issue.

He continued watching the simulation interface.

[You keep your worries to yourself and continue your relationship with the girl. Every morning, you are awakened by her good morning kiss, you eat the breakfast she carefully prepares, and head to school together. At noon, she comes to your classroom to have lunch with you, and in the afternoon, you go home together. She draws your bath and scrubs your back.]

[You feel like you’ve entered married life early, living a life where everything is done for you, causing you to become lazy.]

[When you finally remember to make career plans, more than half of your second year has passed.]

[You decide you can’t be this complacent anymore; you need to start working hard, honing a skill to become a master in a particular field! You share your aspirations with Ibuki Yuko and ask her to supervise you.]

[The girl cheers you on, placing your head on her lap and massaging you with techniques she learned from books.]

[Since then, you become addicted to lap pillow massages.]

[As the end of the second year approaches, you finally recall your aspirations.]

A short memory scene appeared.

It was winter, snowflakes covering the balcony with a thin white blanket. The cold seeped through unknown gaps in the windows and walls, making Minami Yuuki, sitting in the kotatsu, sneeze.

Ibuki Yuko draped a blanket over his shoulders and sat beside him.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t,” Ibuki Yuko said. “I’ve graduated now. I’ll work and take care of you.”

“No way,” Minami Yuuki flipped over, wrapping his arms around the girl who wobbled from his sudden movement. “If you work, then who will take care of me?”

“But if Yuuki works, then who will I take care of?” Ibuki Yuko’s fingers touched his lips.

Before Minami Yuuki could respond, the girl’s kiss had already landed.

[You reflect on your own laziness to Ibuki Yuko, and the girl tells you that even if you are lazy, it’s fine. She will support you; she wants to support you. At this moment, you have yet to realize the deeper meaning behind her words.]

[After the New Year, you finish the third term and advance to your third year. Ibuki Yuko successfully graduates and gets accepted into the Faculty of Science at Misaki University.]

[On her first day of school, you accompany her. During a break when the girl goes to the restroom, a few upperclassmen guiding the new students mistake you for a freshman, drawn by your beauty. They flock around you, offering to show you around, until Ibuki Yuko returns and they disperse.]

[Ibuki Yuko tightly grasps your hand, and you can clearly sense her displeasure. It makes you laugh; you didn’t expect her to be such a jealous type.]

[You complete all the registration formalities together and then see her to her class, kissing her goodbye at the door. The boys attracted to Ibuki Yuko’s cuteness and the girls drawn to your good looks all sigh in their hearts.]

[The vast knowledge and heavy workload of the science course inevitably demand some of Ibuki Yuko’s energy. Plus, the different campus locations make it hard for her to always be by your side as before, giving you more free time.]

[During school, you rekindle your close relationship with Chitose Kazumi, and after school, you renew your friendship with Asano Nao.]

[You are surprised to realize that over the past two years, you had gradually lost touch with these two girls, focusing solely on your intimacy with Ibuki Yuko.]

[Was this a coincidence? Or... deliberate guidance? You think you might be overthinking it. How could such a doll-like girl have such schemes?]

[Ibuki Yuko quickly adjusts to the disruption caused by university life and re-focuses on you, noticing your renewed relationships with Chitose Kazumi and Asano Nao.]

[That night, lying in your arms, she tells you she wants to take a year off from school and join you in university next year.]

[You don’t doubt her and agree to Ibuki Yuko’s request. You feel it’s your fault for being too clingy before. Love isn’t only about romance, and the world isn’t just about lovers. You decide to help her make some female friends.]

[The first choice, of course, is Chitose Kazumi.]
