Megu sniffles.
That happens
Edie smiled gently.
You can’t help but oppose what the elders tell you. Like, you’re scolded as they look down on you Well, your big sisters do love to speak bossy after all
Yukino laughed.
I also understand that Mana and the younger girls are just worried about me Well, aren’t you looking down on Maika and the girls?
Yukino presses.
That’s right. I reject the elder sisters because I can’t beat them, and I look down on the younger girls, I’m not even listening to them. And Yoshi-kun.
Me?
I thought that you were just going with the flow with whatever the big-sisters were saying, that you were looking down on me. I’m sorry No, Well, I’m an idiot, yes That’s right! He’s a real idiot, so you can look at him like an idiot! Right, stupid?
Err.
Well, who cares.
It must be hard for someone at the same age to scold you. You live in the same period as them after all
Edie said.
That’s right, especially.
Megu looked at Ai.
I’m scared of Ai Scared of me?
Ai looks dumbfounded.
It’s the first time I’m told that. Right
I never saw someone as harmless as Ai.
She’ll make you feel that you want to protect her, not feel scared.
I thought that Ai-san would take away the role of Yoshi-kun’s pride if I stay stubborn Well, Ai did find her power to heal
Megu said. Edie agreed.
If it goes on, Megumi will only continue to trouble Darling, right. Right, I think that everyone else will accept this girl. I mean, having her as his official partner
Like, Ai becoming my fiance instead of Megu?
Huh? Why would it turn like that? Darling, you need to maintain your life as Yoshida Yoshinobu.
I do have two names on paper right now.
Both of them aren’t Yoshida.
I’ve already abandoned that name.
However, that’s a secret in our school.
Nobody knows that I’m adopted in the Kuromori house now.
We need to hide the Kuromori name as much as possible. Therefore, you can’t abandon the camouflage, the name Yoshida Yoshinobu I know that, but.
But why does it have to push Megu away and have Ai as my bride instead?
I know. I just happened to be at the right place to become Yoshi-kun’s camouflage, and so, I became Yoshi-kun’s fiance
No, Megu, that’s not it.
That’s not the only reason.
I need Megu.
Darling, quiet down for now
Edie stopped me.
That’s right. We don’t care if it’s Megu or Ai as long as someone becomes Darling’s partner in paper
Oh. I see.
Megu’s poking on Megu’s insecurities on purpose.
Nei or I won’t do. We’re out of the ordinary. Darling’s official partner needs to be an ordinary girl. And naturally, Yukino’s out too Indeed. I’m an extraordinary woman after all!
Yukino laughed.
That’s right, I’m ordinary. Unlike everyone, my merit is being that ordinary girl, and that’s why I became Yoshi-kun’s fiance But Megumi, you thought that your status is secured, and that’s why you caused a lot of trouble to Darling And to everyone, I’m really sorry
Megu apologized to everyone.
Ai is also an ordinary girl. She’s a bit cuter, but she’s just like Megu. Someone who can keep Darling company without feeling hesitant Furthermore, she’s casual
Edie said. Yukino added.
Unlike Megumi, this girl doesn’t make a lot of noise. She’s docile and quiet. I think she’ll do anything this idiot asks her I will. If Yoshida-kun wants me
Ai replied.
That’s the problem. Megumi, you know who’s better if the two of you compete, right?
Yukino laughed.
I know that I can’t go on like this.
Megu said.
Do you want to change? I do. If I don’t, Yoshi-kun will surely leave me No, I.
Megu looked at me.
I don’t want to stay like this. I also want to do something for Yoshi-kun A helpful woman who doesn’t just fawn on Darling
Edie smiled.
Ai wants to be like that too.
AI?
I can’t always ask for someone’s help. I’ll do things myself. And then have fun together, and lastly, I want to be of help to people too.Ai. Yeah, do it. We’ll work for it together
I hold Ai’s hand.
Then. Ai.
Yes, that’s why, let’s do our best together, Megumi-san
Megu.
Right. I’ll do my best, so I won’t lose to Ai-san
She accepts Ai as her rival?
That someone she underestimated as a girl who can’t do anything until recently.
I won’t get swayed by my emotions too much. When I’m shaking, that’s when I look at the other party, calm down, or else, I’ll only cause trouble to Yoshi-kun. To everyone
Megu said.
When your heart beats fast, and you feel restless. Take a deep breath. If that didn’t work, chant shuffle to yourself, and you’ll feel refreshed
Well, shuffle only works on Ai. But I guess it’s okay.
To think that Ai, who trembles at anything back then, now gives advice to people.
I get it. Thanks
Megu thanked Ai.
Err, welcome
Ai replied bashfully.
Are you done? I want to go out and buy some grocery though
Katsuko-nee’s voice comes from below.
I’ll be leaving the house for a while, there are no ingredients for dinner here
Looks like they’re done cleaning up
Now they’re making dinner for AI’s father who’ll return home after work in past 8.
Okay, we’ll get down there!
I replied to Katsuko-nee in a loud voice and get up from the bed.
Put on your clothes, girls. Ai, where are the towels?
Need to wipe the sweat, love nectar, and semen.
I think it’s over there
AI points at a cabinet.
Her mother, Makoto-san, takes care of her clothes and where to store them.
She doesn’t know every detail, even though this is her room.
Ah, this one! Get one!
Yukino, who didn’t have sex with me here, pulls the towels and throws it at us.
Ah, thanks! Megu, Ai. Here Yoshida-kun, I’ll do it myself.
Ai tries to wipe her crotch, but.
You know, let Darling do this
Edie smiled.
Don’t just think of doing everything yourself, you need to think of how to please your partner too O-Okay, Yoshida-kun. Please. Sure
I clean up Ai’s body.
I’ll also think of what pleases Yoshi-kun the most
Megu reflects on what Edie said.
I think that’s good. Megumi
Edie smiled happily.
I finally got along with Megumi Huh? Edie? Let’s get along from now on, okay?
Megu starts crying again from hearing that.
Sorry, I caused so many troubles, didn’t I? Not really? It just had me worried Sorry, I really am
Megu apologized to Edie from the bottom of her heart.
And this is the list of what you need to buy. Let’s see, it’s Megumi-chan, Edie-chan, and Ai-chan?
After everyone put on their clothes and went down.
Katsuko-nee gives instructions.
What about me? How about you clean up the bathroom? It needs some manpower to scrub away the dirt. We want Ai-chan’s father to take a good bath, don’t we?
Well, yeah.
He must be pleased if the bath is clean after coming back from Sendai.
As for the security duties, Edie-chan can do that, right? The supermarket is just close by. Ai-chan, do you know where it is? The shop close to school?
Ai probably never ran an errand to buy something.
Yes, that’s right I know where it is. We’ve gone there back then to buy something for our club
Megu said.
The women’s track and field club bought something there.
It’s the supermarket next to the drugstore, right? Yes. The closest one
