On my return ho, Yue ssaged about the progress of the recording for their song collaboration. It had already passed the production stage and was now in the final stages of mixing and mastering. She was so excited she couldn't contain herself and sent a sample.
I listened to it on repeat. The soothing voices of the three girls were enough to lt away any fatigue.
According to Yue, they're planning to announce the song next month as part of their promotional efforts. As for keeping Akane and Miho's identities anonymous, they're discussing using aliases instead. It's better to have an answer ready than to dodge the inevitable questions.
She also ntioned that Chisato-nee was now working closely with her. Not only was she helping Yue pitch for more projects and event appearances or TV guest spots, but she was also actively looking for sponsors for another concert since her first one was successful enough to draw in thousands.
It seems like Chisato-nee is going all-in on investing in Mabushisa Asahi. I'm not sure how her studies in directing are going, though.
Speaking of Chisato-nee, she's supposed to visit soon, but she's still trying to confirm who the Onoda Clan will send to visit us.
I'm not particularly looking forward to that visit, but if they do co, well, I won't turn them away.
However, I have no idea how my parents will react. From what I heard from my mother, they also don't mind the clan reaching out again after hearing about from Otoha's brother.
Maybe they're planning to let draw my own conclusion about whether it will be beneficial for to reconnect with the family for my future with the girls.
We'll see.
After finishing my talk with Yue, I ordered her another box of donuts. That earned a scolding from Kaoru-san, who was mindful of Yue's sugar intake since the girl had apparently devoured an entire box the night before.
Kaoru-san was concerned it might affect Yue's current figure.
Unfortunately for Yue, she's not like Futaba, whose excessive sugar intake sohow
translates into her breasts growing.
It's still a baffling and unique constitution, even after witnessing it firsthand. I wonder when she's going to visit after her insistence on returning my boxers. I can already tell that it may lead to her asking for assistance again. Maybe another tickling session? It will be good if she forgets about it but will I be able to turn her down if it happens again? Or better yet, will I be able to keep my restraint in check?
Uh... Better not think about that and just let nature run its course. Who knows? She may not find the courage to ask for it again. I'll just pretend I forgot about that instance already.
Anyway, the other girls didn't have any major updates, so our conversations were mostly about how our day went and their plans for tomorrow.
Of course, quite a few of them didn't miss the chance to express how much they wanted to spend more ti with . Haruko and Yae, in particular, were already planning their next sleepover, having postponed it last week to make way for Miwa-nee's return.
Yae hinted she might bring Hiyori, Ririka, or both.
As for Haruko, she teased that Yuika and Minori-senpai might join her this ti.
I don't know how serious she is about that one since those two still have a few apprehensions regarding our closing distance. I've already shared an intimate mont with the two. However, from the way I saw it, the one I shared with Yuika-senpai happened maybe because of her gratitude to as well as her curiosity. She ntioned it was her first kiss and I made sure to keep it only to her acceptable boundaries.
anwhile, Edel and Mina... well, those two are probably waiting for the chance to invite to a sleepover at their places instead. They're just not bringing it up because of the still- unresolved issue with the Ichihara.
Right. Most of them are still being cautious about minimizing any links between themselves and to avoid getting dragged into that ss. And that's for the best.
The night didn't end there, of course. After catching up with Yue and the others, I finally returned ho to Akane and Miwa-nee, who had practically monopolized my attention the mont I stepped into the house.
Akane, with her quirk still active, clung to as if making up for all the ti we didn't spend together today. Miwa-nee, on the other hand, was a mix of her usual teasing self and a doting elder figure, alternating between scolding Akane for being too clingy and making sure I was comfortable.
Minoru was already asleep so we got our ti together.
"I've been good, right? I deserve all your attention tonight, husband!" Akane declared, hugging my arm tightly. She then started ntioning how she behaved in class and how she listened to Fuyu and the others for not making a scene from not hearing my voice after I called her during lunch break.
"Of course, you've been more than good," I replied as I patted her head, doting on her as much as possible, "But don't forget, Miwa-nee was also here. I also have to pamper her, you know?"
"What are you saying, Ruki? Go ahead. I'm fine just watching you two be lovey-dovey. I'll have my ti with you once she falls asleep," Miwa-nee teasingly said as she returned with the tray of tea from the kitchen.
After serving us a cup, she sat down on my other side, her head resting comfortably on my shoulder.
And while we were sipping on the tea and basking in the silence, I rembered sothing, "Right, Miwa-nee. Have you t Mizuki?"
"Yes. I've been contacted by her. I told her about my plan to open a cafe. She only asked for my capital though. After that, she said she was going to draft a proposal for my business first. She wanted to lead it herself, saying she's going to make sure I'll have a great location and uninterrupted operations once I open up shop," Miwa-nee replied.
"That girl... she's going all out, huh? But thinking about it, the ones she was working on were all for proxies. The people from her family are making use of her talent for their projects," I mused, feeling a bit of concern for Mizuki.
She's always been so independent and she's definitely still valued in the Hasegawa Family but
with her declaration of wanting to go independent, it's like she's going against the wave. In any case, we just have to brave it together.
I'm her partner, after all.
