Because the ingredients she already prepared were still waiting for us, Yayoi-san and I didn’t let it wait for long. Besides, with how much I missed her – even if it was just a little over a week – I also found it difficult to hold back.
Besides, we promised to continue later in her bedroom on the condition that we finished cooking before Mina arrived.
Not that we were limiting ourselves, it’s simply because Yayoi-san knew that if Mina was also present in the house, I wouldn’t neglect her for the sake of extending my ti with her mother.
Like her dilemma the day after our relationship started, Yayoi-san was still afraid to think that I was more attracted to her than Mina. In addition, her love for her daughter still outweighed her love for .
Although I argued that it shouldn’t be a contest between Mina and , Yayoi-san still needed ti to adapt to it.
Well, that’s fine either way. There’s no need to rush. The three of us we’ll be together for a long ti. Sooner or later, Yayoi-san would be dropping that thought to relieve herself of that burden.
“Yayoi-san… Here. I’m finished peeling these. Should I fry these now?” I said, glancing back at Yayoi-san who was stirring the pot while I held up a naked potato that I hadn’t chopped into strips yet..
Yayoi-san, whose face still had a crimson trace on her cheek also glanced back and readily nodded. Her lips showed a pleased smile.
She’s making so kind of soup that needs to be stirred once every five minutes. I don’t know where its recipe originated but from the sll alone, I can already feel my stomach churning and my energy slowly rejuvenating. It contains so kind of tonic that’s probably not going to be inferior to the grilled eel that I ate with Shizu during our date.
“Here, use this stove at my side, Ruki-dear. I’m impressed, you really know how you work in a kitchen.”
Hearing that praise that she already muttered a few tis before, I could only secretly shake my head.
She’s in a great mood… And it’s obvious why.
“It’s nothing compared to your experience, Yayoi-san.”
“Ara~ I’m a mother, dear. It’s natural. However, n like you seldom have the motivation to cook for themselves regardless of their aptitude. That’s why I find you capable… I believe there’s a lot more you can do, right? Like your physical skills, your boxing knowledge, your business acun… What else?”
Uh. Now that she knows the full extent of what I’m doing to look for a path for my future, she’s not holding back at listing them all out.
“Co on, Yayoi-san. I’m not an expert on all of that. One thing though. I think I can learn sothing if I put my mind to it.”
Upon hearing that, I heard her smacking her smacking her lips together. If I turn around now, she’s probably smirking as well.
“See. Your confident tone is also quite attractive. I love to see you like this. Next ti, even if you make a blunder… let understand it first before you apologize. You see, sotis, even us adults will resort to blaming ourselves rather than understanding the core of the problem first.”
She got a point. However, am I not wrong to bla myself for my own blunder?
“I understand. However, Yayoi-san–”
“I know what you’re going to say. I’m making an exception today. Since you already promised to always keep in the loop, let’s put that matter to rest, okay?” Yayoi-san cut off, the tone of her voice sincere with a hint of strictness as though she was reminding not to dwell on it anymore.
I got tongue-tied for a while, before muttering silently, “Yes.”
“You don’t sound convinced.”
“Uhm. It’s not that. I just want to say that Yayoi-san should also reprimand when I do sothing wrong. Don’t spoil . And don’t let get away with anything. I want us to grow together without coddling each other too much..”
This should be upheld at the very least. I can prevent myself from falling for self-bla but it should be within these bounds. Good thing I have Arisa, Ria, and occasionally the other girls who never hold back in helping understand things that I don’t know. Otherwise, I would really be too spoiled by now while remaining insensitive about their feelings.
“I see. Let’s do it like that then. Now that you ntioned it, I may have really been trying to look away at your flaws. Young man, you made this old lady fall head-over-heels for you.”
Before I knew it, Yayoi-san already turned around and hugged from behind. The pot was still boiling, making the temperature in the kitchen rise. But at this mont, her body warmth and the clear and hurried beating of her heart were more prominent to my senses.
She’s not lying… Yayoi-san’s feelings for have already developed so much that she’s even unconsciously ignoring my faults.
“Alright. I’ll reprimand you on that one, Yayoi-san. You’re not an old lady at all.”
I squeezed her hand that was locked in my abdon and kissed her cheek gently. That simple gesture conveyed my appreciation for her.
Yayoi-san’s face flushed red before whispering, “So it’ll be fine for to act childish for you, dear.”
“Mhm. That’s better… I’ll take care of you later in your bedroom.”
“Ara~ How exciting. Fufu.”
Along with a sweep of her fingers tracing my body, I felt Yayoi-san’s lips clamping on the side of my neck before she hurriedly turned back around to continue what she was doing.

Twenty minutes later, we were still not finished with the preparation when Mina arrived ho.
However, she’s not alone this ti. Apart from Hiko who probably couldn’t escape from their chauffeur again, Haruko, Edel, Yuika and Minori-senpai ca ho with her.
Upon seeing them all, surprise wouldn’t be enough to describe my expression.
I looked at Mina who was sporting a aningful smile. However, it’s not directed at but at her mother.
Haruko, Edel, and the other two also had differing expressions. The first two were also pleasantly smiling, Edel couldn’t even hold herself back from sprinting to the kitchen in order to jump in my arms. As for the other two, Yuika-senpai looked like she had just drunk a sour juice while Minori-senpai narrowed her eyes.
Yeah. Looks like… this has been planned by the mother and daughter. I don’t know when but it should be after we do it…
To confirm, I looked behind and Yayoi-san was sporting an apologetic smile at as though saying, “I’m sorry for tricking you, dear.”
What about our talk about her bedroom?
Uh… I’m not complaining. It’s my Haruko and Edel. How can I complain?
But maybe if I checked my phone even once after arriving here, I would probably notice sothing. My head got so focused on Yayoi-san that I put it aside for later.
“Hehe, Ruki. Auntie invited us to eat dinner,” Edel said upon squeezing in my embrace.
Yeah. The clue was openly laid out in front of . If I only analyzed it, I would’ve figured out that Yayoi-san was making a lot of dishes and a bigger portion for only three people.
