Chapter 1216: Meeting Nyaika
Recalling those vague memories, I could honestly say that something like visiting a doctor or a psychiatrist happened. I was probably even put in therapy. However, that failed to make an impact on my desire. I continued with what I was doing and completely disregarded and forgot whatever treatment I received.
In short, I remained a menace. If that was successful, I would probably be the man that I am today.
In any case, what did my mother mean that the doctor escaped because of me?
I tried asking more questions but as though I used up my chances to do so, my mother’s answer became vague.
And the last thing I managed to pick up from those was…
“You see, baby boy. You almost stole her. Hence, she escaped before that happened. You can say that she ran away from you.”
And even with that, I still failed to recall what happened back then. I couldn’t even remember the name of that doctor.
Following this, I spent another hour talking and spending time with them before preparing to set out for the day.
Well, even with my schedule already filled up, I still managed to make time to meet one of my girls today.
Around half an hour later, I arrived at a park that was already almost deserted by those exercising and jogging in the morning.
I didn’t take long to search for the one I was going to meet up with because as soon as I stepped my foot inside the park, the girl sprinted towards me.
“Ruki!” Aika, in her usual practice attire, didn’t even apply brakes on herself which led me to receive her with everything I got.
While giggling happily the girl climbed on my back, giving me no other choice but to piggyback her to one of the benches inside the park.
She’s not heavy, anyway. In fact, she’s so light that it’s one of the reasons why she keeps getting faster clear times in her obstacle runs. She could also jump high. If she’s playing basketball, she’d probably give Satsuki a hard time in defense.
“Alright, I won’t ask if you miss me anymore. It’s all conveyed by this.” Even when I sat us down, the girl simply got off my back and took my lap before turning into an affectionate kitten, purring and meowing while rubbing her cheek on my chest.
It’s a good thing that there are little to no people around anymore, or else, this girl would be very embarrassed. Most of the people coming here every morning were already acquaintances, if not friends.
“Nyan~ I’ll still say it. I miss you, Ruki. Wait, no. I miss being this close to you.”
“Mhm. Me too. Good thing I checked on you first.” I put a hand on top of her head, patting her while she continued to act like a cat. And seeing how she enjoyed this, I couldn’t help but be completely drawn to her cheerfulness.
A few seconds later, I lowered my head, taking her lips for a long kiss. Aika accepted it wholeheartedly as her arms circled to the back of my head, locking me in to prolong this intimate moment.
Although they would probably say that I wasn’t neglecting them, I kept on thinking about it every time I met them like this. Once in a while truly sucks.
“You’re also competing next week?”
“Of course! I’m now the fastest in our club. The Coach even wanted me to take the 100-meter sprint.”
Well, she’s already in her second year. From what I heard from her, even last year, she’s already considered one of the best. And their Club’s Coach was also a former top-class sprinter. She had gotten very optimistic about this girl’s talent to become an all-rounder.
“I assume you didn’t take it,” I said, understanding this girl’s personality.
“Yeah. It’s too much even for me. I’m already comfortable with my event. Besides, it’s kinda disrespectful to the seniors.”
“I see. I love that very considerate side of you.”
“As if you’re not one as well. Maybe you rubbed that on me. I didn't care about them before, after all.”
Ah. Right, she was kind of aloof back then as well. But then again, not so much because she still got a boyfriend. In this girl’s mind, however, she thought she was kind of awful to her clubmates before. And also because of that aloofness, the others found it hard to approach her.
“Ain’t that nice? My Aika is now well-received by everyone, not the snobby girl that won’t even glance at me at first.”
“I’m never a snob! It’s just… you know, it’s a pain to pretend I care about meaningless topics. On the other hand, you! You’re just too persistent. You never know the word ‘give up’. You kept cheering me on even if I didn’t ask you. And whenever I made a mistake, you’d be there and blame the obstacle instead. What a weird guy, I thought.”
Aika’s laughter grew louder by the end of it as she seemed to be recalling all those experiences before she fell into my clutches.
“Am I still that weird to you?”
“You bet! If not, you’d be mine alone. Anyway, treat me to something, Ruki! I miss eating with you.”
Changing the topic there, Aika finally got off my lap and pulled me up to stand with her.
With her eyes glimmering brightly from the thought of food, the girl clasped my hand and guided me in the direction of the diner we frequented more than a year ago.
“Girl, I thought you’d already eaten before you run. Don’t tell me you still haven’t taken your breakfast?”
“Uhm. I was planning on running to your house. Too bad, you messaged me first so I waited here for you.” The girl stuck her tongue out cutely.
“This girl… you should’ve told me. If you did come, I would’ve cooked for you.”
“Oh! Why didn’t I think of that? I also miss eating something you prepared, Ruki. Next time then.”
“Mhm. Next time. I’ll fill your belly with my cooking.” I promised. Which made the girl beam with an excited smile once more.
A second later, the girl acted coy as she tiptoed to whisper in my ear, “You know, I also love being filled by something attached to you.”
“When did my Aika become a pervert?” I replied as I couldn’t help but pull her closer, cupping and squeezing her plump behind.
“Ever since I fell for you, you big pervert! Then let’s go and eat. I’ll have you feed me today.” The girl almost jumped in surprise upon feeling my hand there. Nonetheless, she still managed to reply and bring us back to our original topic before someone could spot us acting too lewd in public.
“Sure, anything for you… Besides, I already ate breakfast so, what we’re going to order was mostly for you.”
“I think it’s about time we train that stomach of yours, Ruki. That way, you can eat with all of us without getting bloated.”
That’s not a bad idea. But will I be able to handle that? No, right?
“You wish. I don’t have the same metabolism as you, you glutton.” I teasingly remarked which instantly made the girl’s eyebrows clash before glaring at me.
That’s the one word she didn’t want to be associated with. But it’s not because she hated it, but because it was true and she couldn’t deny it.
“Oh! You’ve done it now, you cheeky brat!”
“Is this the return of my Nyaika-senpai?”
“Nyaa~ Yeah. It’s about time I assert dominance again, right? Come here and feed me.”
Right on time, we arrived at the diner. Still, we managed to get most of the attention because of Aika’s cat-like behavior.
She’s just too cute and lovely not to be noticed. Even by women.
Anyway, we took the corner table, and as we planned, I let the girl order everything she wanted to. When it arrived, I doted on the girl by feeding her myself. She became more like a cat then. Rubbing her cheeks on mine every time she would take a mouthful.
I took a photo of it, capturing my girl’s delightful moment.
Following this, I spent more time with the girl until it was time for me to meet Ohori-senpai.
Whatever she’s going to say, I doubt it will be good. In any case, when I told Aoi about this, she mentioned that she was the one who urged Ohori-senpai to talk to me. Like, even if it’s not about the girl’s problematic relationship, she kinda bragged about how I could make her feel better or cast her gloom away. And this meeting was probably to test if that’s true.
