Chapter 1134 Birthday

Chapter 1134 Birthday

Back during middle school, I never tried figuring out my targets’ birthdays except when I could use it for my conquest. That’s why this year should be the first time I greet and celebrate it with them.

The question is how to make it really special for them aside from spending the day together.

With Miwa-nee, we got that little party at the house as well as the fulfillment of the promise to go hiking.

This time with Yukari, I asked her to decide. As long as it’s not an impossible task, I will do anything she wishes.

Obviously, this will also be the same for the other girls when their special day arrives.

That’s how it is for couples, right? Although companionship would be enough for some, there would always exist that certain desire to make your loved one feel really special during their birthdays.

Well, as for my birthday, I personally couldn’t really care enough for it.

Because it landed on a rather special occasion for everyone – Valentine’s Day – it was always overshadowed by it. Nonetheless, it was for that same reason that anyone who found out about it would always remember it.

From what I could recall from my past birthdays, the girls from my class never missed handing me chocolates. Most only do it for fun, letting me guess whether it’s for Valentine's, my birthday. Maybe some had different meanings, I just couldn’t care enough about it.

From my recent one, I remembered that Eimi also gave me one. A full bag of her handmade ones but it got mixed with the others and we never exchanged words. As the Classmate A at that time, I naturally didn’t become a snob. I thanked everyone properly.

Obviously, the girls I’d stolen – those who were aware, at least – also presented me with gifts and chocolates. But as always, I acted like a prick and never uttered words of gratitude. I just received it before switching quickly to the call of my desire.

Right. Akane too. That girl showed up on our doorstep. Not just with a bag of chocolates but also a cake.

Uh. Remembering it also made me recall how I got a toothache and a hard time at the toilet that day for trying to eat everything all at once.

Anyway, back to the present. Yukari took her time to ponder about what she wanted to do and I spent the time waiting just enjoying being in her embrace.

Around five minutes later, Yukari cupped my cheeks and leveled my face with hers before telling me the result of her pondering.

“Uhm… Scratch the skipping part, that’s not good for both of us. I want to say that my wish for this day has long been granted by you. Nothing beats being accepted by you again. However, knowing you and how much you changed for us, I’m certain that you won’t let this day end without doing something for me. After considering how you might show up with a bouquet of flowers in a funny disguise right in front of our school gates, I decided… Pick me up after school. I’ll be waiting for you in our classroom.”

“Got it. I’ll run to you as soon as club hours are finished.”

No matter what she requested, my ‘yes’ was already a foregone conclusion. I made sure to clear this day up. Sena was going to that preliminary today and Yua’s modeling gig was moved to Sunday instead of the original Thursday schedule.

In school, although there might be an effect of what happened yesterday, I doubt it would hinder me from leaving earlier than normal. Walking my girls to their station was still viable but if they’re aware of Yukari’s birthday then… I would definitely hear them pushing me to go and not delay in meeting this girl.

As for my promise to return and convince Miura Komoe, that’s naturally going to be pushed back. Well, the anticipation of my return would be built up which would lead that girl to mull over things. That would help her decide faster.

“Great! I sent you the directions. Don’t come with a bouquet and a funny disguise, okay?” Yukari pulled out her phone and sent a message to me.

It’s only one line but it’s already understandable.

“Yukari, you said that twice. Could it be that you’re actually hoping for me to show up like that?” I teasingly said, looking directly into her eyes.

With her cheeks bloating, the girl hastily shook her head, “Y-you I said don’t! What part of that sentence points to me wanting it?”

Well, that’s how it is sometimes. One will say no to something but deep inside it’s what they want. And with Yukari repeating it twice, and maybe thrice if I didn’t point it out right away, the girl was possibly imagining me in that situation.

“Got it. A bouquet of flowers and a funny disguise coming right up.” I ignored her words and pushed on teasing the birthday girl, earning me a pinch on my cheeks and a great view of my girl becoming extremely flustered.

Soon after that, she pulled me behind the public restroom where the girl ‘punished’ me with lots of kisses and more…

Mhm… That’s a special punishment. It was heavenly.

After sending Yukari near their school gates, I once again met up with Otoha.

This time, although we didn’t plan to meet each other, it’s still a welcome surprise. I got to check on the girl and Hitomi who’s already a little bashful after yesterday.

Anyway, as soon as we finished a few minutes of intimacy, Otoha revealed to me the reason why she asked to see when it was already close to the closing of school gates.

Apparently, her grandfather asked her to relay a message to me.

At first, I thought it was because he found out that we used that safehouse yesterday. But the content of the message was beyond my expectation.

He once again wanted to meet me. However, different from the first time, he specified that Otoha wouldn’t accompany me. Whatever the reason for that, he didn’t tell the girl about it.

And that’s the reason why Otoha appeared rather sulky when her grandfather called to talk to me personally.

At the moment, I was outside the car with the phone close to my ears as I listened to the old man’s instructions.

“Young man, that’s a secret to my granddaughter, you hear me? Don’t you dare tell her or I will have to deal with you myself regardless of you being Miss Sayuri’s son.”

“Mhm. I understand. My lips are sealed tight. After hearing about what this was about, I would never tell her about it.”

“Good, good. I’ll contact you again when it’s time and it won’t be through Otoha. In the meantime, take care of my darling girl.”

Without waiting for me to reply, the call already ended and I was left standing there, digesting what I just heard.

I spent a few minutes more relaxing my expression, making sure that there was no trace of it that Otoha could pick up left behind before going back to the car.

From that call, it appears that I will have another thing to hide not just from Otoha but also from all of my girls. Although it’s not necessarily a dangerous thing, with the world they’re living in, it’s like a tadpole swimming into the sea or a wider river for me.
