Chapter 563: Lunch Break
With lunch becoming our own special time, we all made sure that it would be well worth it.
Given that there’s a lot of them in one room, they somehow decided to not be overly attached to me during it, giving me the freedom to go where I wanted to place myself.
They’re all aware that with my personality, I would always be fair or rather, it would be against my nature to not dote on all of them even with only little time.
Well, this place started as my practice room with Nami. Practicing holding hands and hugging, while on the side, I was confusing her mind or rather, making her fall out of her affection to Ogawa. Most importantly, our affection for each other bloomed in this very room. If I started as just trying to steal her for my desire, it eventually ended up with me trying to make her fall for me.
I succeeded in the end, making this a very special room for us.
Satsuki and Aya joined our lunch dates later on followed by Hina. And now, Saki and Chii became the newest members.
And just last Friday, this room also became a special place for me and Saki...
Although they’re aware that we did it, we kept to ourselves that it happened here.
During our lunch this time, I first sat down between Aya and Satsuki to eat lunch and thanked the two for the notes they made for me. There’s not just one handwriting on the notes Aya gave to me after all. And as it turned out, Satsuki did one of them.
Moreover, after doting on my adorable Aya, I also eased Satsuki’s sulky expression. Naturally, her sulkiness wasn’t from being jealous of Aya or the fact that I sent Nami and the others home. My overthinking habit being triggered again yesterday was the reason.
The girl hated it so much that I kept on apologizing when I should not. She emphasized them not being children who had no idea what they’re doing.
While cupping my cheeks, Satsuki kept on tempting me by only placing her lips right before they touched mine.
After letting her be satisfied by that for a few minutes, my arms swiftly moved to the back of Satsuki’s head, pushing it down. Amidst the kisses we shared, I reassured her that it wouldn’t happen again. Following that... I didn’t let go of her until her expression eased up, complete with Satsuki’s fully flustered expression that she instantly covered by her hand towel.
As for Nami, Hina and Saki... They’re still satisfied from last night. No... Satisfied might be a wrong word choice there. It’s better to call it that they’re all still hung up on what happened.
For Nami, it’s what happened on the bus, she told me that she dreamt of it. Shyly confessing that she had a wet dream about us. Although the setting was still the same, there’s only the two of us at that time.
Letting her describe it to me made Nami overheat from the embarrassment of remembering it. The girl was still a pure maiden despite our experiences together. Furthermore, teasing her about it almost made her hit me with her knuckles but in the end, she decided to just kiss me and shut me up completely with her lips.
When I told her about my encounter with Ogawa before coming to this room, Nami silently listened to it while giving a remark that I did the right thing by using words again to wake him up. Although we already did that a lot of times, Nami was still hoping for him to move on from his infatuation towards her even if he eventually decides to stop being friends with them.
As soon as I saw the guilt filling her eyes, I snapped my fingers in front of her, surprising her with the sound of it before covering her lips with mine.
It’s natural to feel the guilt but I don’t want to see her being eaten away by it.
After Nami, I then went to Hina, she told me how she got teased by their neighbors earlier or those who heard about her boyfriend sending her home last night.
According to her, Ogawa walked with her to the bus station and heard all of it. He had a sour expression throughout but never even questioned her about the identity of her boyfriend. Naturally, he knew who they were talking about.
Whether his sister told him about it or not, she had no idea. On the bus, Ogawa didn’t sit next to her like what always happened before regardless of the situation.
She admitted that although her petty revenge satisfied her upon seeing that sour expression on his face, she still couldn’t help but worry over him.
Even if her advances were mostly ignored by him, years of being together cemented the fact that the two of them were the closest of friends. Her childhood was filled with memories of that coward.
To stop me from getting the wrong idea, Hina clarified that even if Ogawa made a quick turnaround and started chasing after her, she’d stand with her decision to be with me.
Between Nami and her, she’s truly the one who had it harder to move on. Perhaps if I hadn’t made a move on stealing her, she’d still be the scheming girl who would do anything to make Ogawa look at her. No matter how long.
Naturally, I didn’t let her dwell on it. I trust her, I trust all of them. It sounds na?ve considering it will be easy for them to keep something from me because of how I cannot be with them all the time. However, that’s just how it is, if I don’t trust them then what’s the point of making them mine? Betraying my trust will be their choice.
Besides, among us, I am the most untrustworthy given that I can add another girl at any time. That’s the root of why I’m always honest with them.
After holding Hina in my embrace for a while, to drop her notion that I will get the wrong idea despite her clarification, I then moved to the last girl in the room.
Well, subtracting her answer to my question if she’ll still be mine again, Chii and I didn’t have any serious topic to talk about. That’s why the next few minutes were spent with the two of us just sitting together.
And before the lunch break ended, the room became lively as miscellaneous topics were brought out for everyone to talk about.
In any case, being in the same room... every conversation I had with each of them was heard by everyone. They’re not just saying anything to show respect to each other.
Furthermore, it would not be like this every day. It would be really suspicious if we’re always missing during lunch.
Nami, Hina and Saki being here was already risking Kikuchi to think of something going on. So, to stop a suspicion from growing, we would only occasionally gather at this place starting tomorrow.
Although I wanted to spend time with all of them, I would go back to how I was back in middle school, letting my feet choose where it would lead me.
Uh... Of course, that’s not applicable anymore when I wanted to make it fair for everyone.
I was fairly certain that I would still constantly move to spend time with all of them. It would not just be during every lunch break but also every time a chance shows itself. My feet would surely lead me to one or all of them.
And obviously, Kana, Himeko, Rae and Haruko were also included in that thought.
