Stealing Spree

Morning the next day, everything was the same, except… Akane and I somehow toned the roughness down with our morning ritual of calming down the side effect of the miraculous too.

Despite our shamelessness, Akane and I practiced our restraint to not let Fuyu get woken up from the noises coming from our bedroom. That would just turn everything awkward, after all.

Thanks to that, when she showed up downstairs later on, our breakfast table became a little lively.

Nothing out of the ordinary happened. If I had to point out something… Fuyu remained unaware that she blurted out something last night. I didn't comment on it, after all. I simply prolonged that pats before retracting my hand and seeing her disappear into the room to rest.

Then, when I returned to our room, I found my silly wife chuckling behind the slightly opened door of our bedroom. She was pleased with the progress that she'd seen even though nothing really happened.

Anyway, since it's an extremely rare chance for them, Akane convinced Fuyu to take a bath with her. She even jokingly asked me if I wanted to join, making her best friend flustered and not knowing what to say.

That was definitely tempting but we all know that it's not possible. At least not at this point where I had just started getting close to the girl. Uh. Let's scratch the 'at least not at this point' there. It's impossible to happen if I only chose to befriend her. Akane kept on creating chances for us to get closer but unless something like what happened with Kazuha-nee occurs, it'll be a crawl before my interest in her develops further or Fuyu telling me what she's still keeping inside her chest.

While I waited for them to finish bathing, I took that chance to greet my girls good morning or wake them up by calling them.

As always, I've gotten positive responses from everyone, some even attached their photos that showcased their morning looks, either still dozy or already wide awake along with their stimulating figure in their sleepwear or wrapped in bath towels as they prepared to take a dip.

Ah. Some were also in their kitchen, preparing or eating breakfast.

For one, there's Ria who proudly showed me how she made a special kind of toast before asking me if I want one. It's something she invented herself from all the knowledge she acquired from being an observant. Somehow, that girl has also started getting more proactive in appealing to me. She's growing up. Rather than wait to be spoiled by me whenever we're together, she's now upgrading her stats.

In any case, my answer to her question was obviously an immediate yes. As long as it's made by my girl, I'll never say no to it even if it turns out awful. Of course, I'll give them honest feedback. That way, they can improve further or, in their own words, make something that will satisfy my palate.

Apart from the fluffy messages that could easily make my day, I also get to hear from Ayu. She went into business mode after showing off her sweaty figure which resulted from her morning exercises. It's like she suddenly remembered that she had something important to talk to me about.

What was it?

My part-time job, of course. With the plan for the opening of the same course for new students, she asked me if I'm ready for tomorrow.

Well, because tomorrow would also be my scouting trip with Juri, I already asked Ayu and Hisa-jii to move the time to late in the afternoon. As for the set exercises, it'll just be the same as before.

But knowing Ayu and how she's also made aware of most of my plans, she's clearly asking me about the other gig that I picked up… The one that involved Ichihara-san and her daughter.

And so, even when she's in the process of formulating a plan on how to naturally bring that topic up, I skipped past the other details and jumped straight to it, telling her what Ichihara-san sent me regarding it. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛ℴ𝓋𝑒𝘭.ℴ𝑟𝘨

Yep. Even though our exchange in messages was minimal and strictly for that, I found Ichihara-san's message regarding the job almost buried by my girls' messages last night.

According to Ichihara-san, she's going to be at the gym on Sunday and will drive me to their home after I conclude my lesson for that day.

Rather than give me their address so I can commute and not trouble her, she decided to just pick me up every week. She's a member of the Boxing Gym with Ayu as her chosen instructor for an advanced lesson, after all. She'll be at the gym at set times so it's like she's just saving me the few bucks that I will be paying for bus or train fares.

With that, Ayu somewhat embarrassedly scolded me for reading her mind. That's adorable of her so… for the rest of the time until Akane and Fuyu finished taking a bath, I teased her to the point that Ayu told me to prepare myself for tomorrow.

Mhm. Whatever she planned to do, I now have another thing to look forward to for tomorrow.

Around thirty minutes later, Akane, Fuyu and I set off to the station. There, Eimi, who I messaged so that I could also walk her to school, joined us. Unlike the previous time where I picked her up at home, the girl went ahead and just waited for us on the platform, making it look like a chance encounter in Fuyu's eyes.

And since they're already acquainted, Eimi didn't take long to mesh well with Fuyu and Akane, creating a trio of beauty that were extremely pleasing to the eye, not just to me but to everyone.

Thanks to that prominent synergy created by their presence, a spot inside the crowded train magically opened up, allowing the three girls to have a seat to prevent them from tiring their legs standing up.

Or in other words, those who got mesmerized by them tried acting like gentlemen, giving them their seats.

Obviously, I wasn't included in getting a free seat. Too bad for them though, Akane being Akane, pulled me down with her and had me take her seat before settling down on my lap, silently announcing to everyone that it's her special place.

That instantly made the idiots scowl at me or regret giving up their seats.

But the pain in their chest didn't end there. Fuyu, who could only shake her head at her friend's usual antics, as well as Eimi, who happily went to take my other side, sandwiched me between them.

With that, I once again became the public enemy #1 for those who thought they could at least get some points from the three. However, no matter how much they glare or curse at my luck, I simply decided to ignore them.

Furthermore, adding more fuel to the fire, my arm naturally hooked around Akane, cuddling her as well as making sure that she won't slide off while sneering at them.

Not only that, I also grabbed Eimi's hand, hiding that connection under the cover of her bag.

In this kind of situation, with Akane and Eimi totally satisfied, only Fuyu found the situation a little awkward due to the level of attention we were getting.

She glanced at me, looking conflicted at how she should act.

"Onoda-kun…" She called out my name as she almost reached for my sleeve.

However, she had to stop upon noticing the intense gaze directed at her by the idiots. Most likely, she thought that they'd make a ruckus if they misunderstood our relationship just because she turned to me for help.

Well, with my hands already tied by my two girls, I could only reassure the girl with a gesture from my head and a spin of words that I couldn't care less if heard by our audience, "I apologize for this, Yuuki-san. But as you can see… we can only endure this situation. Just act normally and don't mind them."

"Ugh… If it is that easy…" Fuyu helplessly sighed but knowing that the situation was already irredeemable, she simply closed her eyes and relaxed her back while slightly leaning to me.

For the next few minutes, the four of us ignored our surroundings no matter how much hate and scorn they threw our way.

It's not our fault that they gave us their seats, right?

When the train arrived at the next station and new passengers entered the train, our saviors for the awkward situation arrived.

No. Wait, they can actually make it worse.

"Pfft... What is that situation? So hilarious!"

"Futaba, there you go squeezing in tight spaces again… Oh—"

Popping out from the crowd, there stood Akane's two other best friend, Futaba, the gyaru-ish girl whose arms were crossed to prevent her slightly pronounced bouncy chest to touch someone and Eri, the tomboyish girl, who could easily squeeze in tight spaces without doing the same thing as Futaba. The former was laughing upon seeing our situation while the latter was speechless, not knowing how to react.
