Yukino tells Edie.

Mumumu, my heart, and lungs are trained What I mean is that it’s okay doing that outside, but how about taking it slow when you’re with your friends?

Then, Ai.

Guitars make a good sound when the strings aren’t too strained, or too loose Yeah, I know that. It’s one of buddha’s teachings

Edie replied.

Right, I should try to loosen up sometimes

She sighed.

Michi is a bit of an airhead sometimes, and so I could ease up, but, I might’ve been too strained.

Michi gets cut loose when it comes to sex.

You can’t find someone who unleashes that much. Other than Misuzu.

But, Yoshi-kun, if Ai-san and I were slow thinkers, there’s no need to make that kind of group, right?

Megu asks.

You’re overthinking it, Megu

Edie said.

That’s right. It’s this idiot who needs this group the most Yukino? Why is that?

Yukino.

I mean, we don’t have to deal with things if they’re troublesome, I mean, the other side will never talk to Megumi or me, who are dim-witted, but.

She speaks in disgust.

This idiot still wants to get along with those people who love to make schemes, those who have the worst personalities, those who will continue to make lots of cunning plans

Err.

Oh, there’s no cameras or mic in here.

We’re in Ai’s house, her room.

Minaho’s fondness of making plot won’t get cured. If that happens, Katsuko and everyone else won’t be with her He’ll also stay with Misuzu and Ruriko, the wealthy ladies, right? Like that old man from Kouzuki house

Yeah, our relationship with Kouzuki house is somewhat troublesome.

Nei’s also a mischievous girl

Nei, yeah.

Then, the Takakura girls. The small girls are cute, but you don’t know what that Tsukiko’s thinking Tsukiko-oneesama’s kind!

Megu refutes.

Megumi, we’re talking about Darling. Tsukiko’s not a bad person, but, having someone who can read one’s mind is a lot of trouble I mean, this idiot is a genuine idiot, if he was just an ordinary man, then he’s gone mad by now

Huh?

You know it’s impossible to deal with people who have that kind of power. Furthermore, there are three of them! Isn’t that great that you’re an idiot?

Err.

Darling may not be aware, but there’s stress accumulating

Edie said. Megu looked at me in surprise.

Darling will always face those troublesome people desperately from now on Therefore, you want some time to ease up, don’t you?

Yukino asks.

I don’t get what you mean by the same speed, but all you want is some ordinary time, right?

Like Kuromori, the brothel, or Kouzuki house vs. Kansai Yakuza.

Anyway, I don’t have time for the ordinary.

i agree

Ai speaks from the bed.

i support the idea

She said, then blushed.

If Ai can be useful to Yoshida-kun, then.

Then.

Oh, I see. It must be fresh for her to be stuck between strange people

Yukino smiled wryly.

Well, it’s nice and all but I don’t like the name Yukkuri club Then, what do you want? Err, Edie mentioned slow life, slow sex, right?

Yukino asks Edie.

Right Then, let’s go with slow instead. That sounds healthy, like that salad name, coleslaw? That’s got a different spelling

Ai said.

Slow and coleslaw

Edie corrects the pronunciation.

Then, what about underthrow from baseball? Yukino, that’s throw, not slow

Megu replied this time.

Kukukukukuku

Ai laughed.

Yukino-san’s so funny

Ai smiled. Yukino.

Huh, so you can make that face too.

Yukino smiled.

The rumored cutest girl in our year finally smiled

I said. Edie also smiles.

Good job, Darling I get it. I’m not cute anyway

Megu feels down again.

I know AI-san’s popularity, and Yukino’s also beautiful You don’t have to flatter me, I’m always beautiful

Megu complains to Yukino.

Recently, my pregnancy is elevating my beauty further. That’s what Francie told me. You know, I’m famous among those with weird fetish right now

Weird fetish? You mean the guys who get aroused with pregnant women?

Besides, Edie’s also a beauty

Edie’s got a frank personality, so you hardly worry about her, but.

She’s an extreme beauty when she’s quiet.

A New Orleans’ beauty with brown skin and blue eyes.

Megumi’s also beautiful. i’m not! That’s not true. The way you present yourself is the problem

Yukino said.

That’s not true, Nei-oneesan’s teaching me in fashion and make-up now.

Megu’s been working hard since last May.

I guess that’s why you flopped why? Nei-oneesan’s extremely beautiful That one’s too far! You two have different foundations, Megumi it’s wrong to try to get like Nei that’s.

Yukino smiles.

It can’t be helped, I’ll be the one to teach you instead Yukino will? I mean, we’re sisters. Don’t we look the same? I think that I’m a better teacher than Nei. Right.

Megu agreed.

Mana’s becoming even more beautiful but, I’ll never match up to her

Megu also feels insecure with Mana.

Maika’s got nothing to do with this, it’s the difference of resolve

Huh, Yukino?

You know, that girl thinks that she’ll die if this idiot abandons her. That’s why she’s doing her best to death why?

Megu’s surprised.

There’s no need to be so desperate that you’re expecting to die, right? That’s Megumi’s difference with us

Yukino said.

Among us sisters, you’re the daughter of someone who looked after Yuzuki, right? That means Megumi’s always been a friend

i see.

Think about it, like, people who are always on the verge of death, the thought that they’ll die in a moment

Yukino’s threatened multiple times. She saw the merciless execution of her father.

Maika and I can’t part from this idiot even if we die. Well, even we do understand that there’s nobody who loves us for real other than this one, but, if he were to abandon us, we would die

Yukino.

I mean, I’m glad that I could call him an idiot. This idiot won’t get angry even if I hit him. I’m happy that it’s this idiot. If it weren’t him, then Maika and I would’ve become toys for perverts

Minaho-neesan’s serious about it.

You know, if you asked for it, I’d wait for you with my three fingers pressed on the floor, or even try to learn how to cook

Yukino tells me.

No, you don’t have to

I replied.

Right, you have lots of women who can do that already

She speaks slightly regretful.

I’m okay to have Yukino by my side What’s that? Just seeing Yukino relieves me. I’m just happy that you’re still alive. It makes me happy Huh?

Tears gather in Yukino’s eyes.

Sometimes, I had dreams that Yukino died. Then when I wake up, I recall that Yukino’s still alive. It relieves me

Yukino’s alive and here right now.

I think that it’s a miracle.

Thinking about what happened last May.

Stop that! Don’t say that!

Yukino cries.

You’re making me remember things! Sorry You’re so stupid!

Edie hands Yukino a handkerchief.

I think that Yukino also needs this slow club. Megumi too

Edie looks at Megu.

Me? It’s the first time where you talked, dropping all the pretense. You don’t have this chance as there are too many people in the mansion

She’s definitely right.

Megumi can stay on Tsukiko’s group, just like usual. But, you’ll also join this ‘slow club’ Just like how I’m with Margo and Nei in combat team, and I’ll still train with Michi. But, we’re members of the bakery and slow club
