Chapter 1094 Message

“What’s wrong? It’s not like I’m stealing him from you. I’m only showing appreciation to my wonderful junior.” Anzu answered in a teasing tone. Furthermore, she pressed my head further, burying me in it.

When I glanced up, the girl was entirely focused on Eimi, leaving her defenseless. Seeing that as a chance, I put my hands on her sides, grabbing her thin figure firmly. Aside from the chest that already developed to the point that one could wonder whether the nutrients for her height and body build went to it, she’s almost similar to Ria.

And as soon as she felt my fingers enclosing her, the girl shuddered from the tickling sensation before hurriedly pushing me away. Or rather, push herself away from me.

With her cheeks gradually turning pink, she crossed her arms and held the place I grabbed earlier. While still shaking, she stared at me in horror, “W-why did you do that?”

I could pleasantly enjoy the sensation of her squishy bosom… However, I certainly didn’t want Eimi to get jealous. So there’s no other choice for me but to scare her away.

Moreover, because of what I did, Anzu became aware that she couldn’t just use me to tease her cousin lest she experiences my expert hands.

“Nee-san, aren’t you asking for a hug? I’m willing to give that to you.” I tilted my head, acting innocent and oblivious to the effect of what I did to her.

“H-how can you be willing? Are you a man-slut? Your girlfriend is right next to you.”

Now that’s a term I haven’t heard being said to me yet. It’s mostly idiot or pervert.

“Is it my fault now? Nee-san initiated it, I just responded.” I shrugged and turned back to my front, picking up my bowl again before looking at the girl sitting next to me.

She became silent when I moved. And now, Eimi, who was mad at what her cousin did, began laughing.

“Anzu-nee, you’re a riot. Don’t hug someone if you’re not prepared to be hugged back.”

Yep. She finally realized that there was no reason for her to be mad. I could easily deflect other women’s advances if I so wished. Her cousin wasn’t any different.

Nonetheless, I noticed that when it comes to Anzu’s teasing, the girl could easily get worked up. In which case, they’d start an almost never-ending banter unless one of them surrendered first. I intervened this time so… it didn’t get to that point.

Another thing that I noticed was… the chance of her getting worked up was amplified whenever it involves me. Otherwise, she’d calmly retort to her childish cousin before it slowly escalates to them shouting at each other; something I witnessed or listened to weeks ago.

“Shut up and let’s eat! And you, Onoda-kun… Uh. Never mind.”

Looking like a defeated champion, she skulked back to her seat across from us.

In this way, our lunchtime gradually achieved peace.

Twenty minutes later, around half an hour before noon, Eimi and Anzu sent me out by their door. The former was satisfied with our time together while the latter still had a complex expression on her face. Most likely, she’s still affected by what I did. In any case, although I only reacted to the situation, she’d probably start to become wary of me. But as Eimi said, she also should start forgetting about that ex of hers. Knowing that he’s not even appreciating her when they’re together, there’s no point holding onto it. Unless she’s really crazy in love with him, the same way I am to my girls.

“Eimi, see you soon. And Anzu-nee-san, I apologize for making you uncomfortable. Tell me next time how I can make up for that.”

“Yes. Take care, Ruki.” Eimi stepped forward to send me off with a kiss. Well, she once again handed me a packed portion of what she cooked. Akane and Minoru would surely like it.

“No. Don’t be. Just keep on making this girl happy and we’re good.” Anzu said before giving me one last complicated gaze before hurrying back inside. She didn’t even wait for me or Eimi to react.

And upon seeing that, Eimi shook her head while smiling, “Tell you what, Ruki… Anzu-nee is more energetic whenever you’re visiting. If I’m not wrong, she’s also looking forward to talking with you. As much as her desire to tease me.”

Uh… So, what should I do with that information?

“Is that so? Then good for her.”

“Not even a reaction? Looks like Anzu-nee’s charm is not enough to move you.”

“This girl… Let’s just say that I’m improving. Hmm?”

Whether she’s serious about expecting me to also see her cousin in a different light, I had no idea. And for now, I shouldn’t really put my focus on that. Just like with those last two girls of Haruko, it’s better to let it happen naturally if there’s really a chance.

For now, I’m fond of that girl’s reactions. And since she’s Eimi’s ‘older sister’ figure despite how annoying she is… I’d just rank her up at the same level as Satsuki’s sister, Setsuna.

I don’t mind interacting with them naturally.

Upon returning home, I still sat down at the table with Akane, Miwa-nee and Minoru. I watched them eat it while listening to their praises for Eimi’s cooking.

I probably looked like a proud parent hearing my girl getting praised for some artwork she did. Akane laughed as she pointed that out. In any case, she didn’t become stingy with her praises.

While preparing my things for the last session of my program at the Boxing Gym later, I checked on Chii and Hifumi while waiting for Shio’s arrival.

Chii invited Hifumi out. And like I promised Chii, I'm going to surprise them. They're going to meet in the afternoon so… Like me, they’re still preparing.

Hifumi was unaware that I’m going to crash their meetup though. I contacted her in the guise of checking on her. And as I expected, although the girl excitedly told me that she was going to meet Chii, she didn’t ask me to come.

Instead, she told me to get ready to be envious because she was going to send me photos of them together.

That girl was trying to be playful… I couldn’t wait to see her reaction upon seeing me later. I must get my phone ready as well…

Anyway, as for Shio, we’re going for a drive to bring back some of her things from their previous house. We’re going to fit everything we could in her car.

The first plan was for me to go to our apartment. However, she got an appointment this morning regarding school which made it impossible for us to meet there.

That’s why she opted to just come here and pick me up when she’s done…

That would be my second time in that house… It’s probably filled with her bitter memories so… Should I help her paint it with colorful and sweeter ones?

Minutes later, I finished packing and sat down on the side of the bed again to check on the newest messages that I received.

There is one from Ayu. However, instead of a message, I got a photo of her… Right out of the bath, wrapped in her bath towel.

Isn’t she getting bolder?

And the other message… is from someone I’m missing and expecting.

Hana…

“Good day, Ruki. I thought of surprising you. However, I eventually decided against it. It’s a lot better if I announce it. You’re free to tell your girls.

I’m coming to see you in less than two weeks. Or exactly eight days from now...

One question though… Are you missing me?

PS. I will never gonna give you up.”
