Stealing Spree

Hana reacting like that upon meeting the girls inside the house, I could easily tell that whatever information was fed to her regarding the present state of my relationship was severely lacking.

True, she was widely aware that multiple girls were involved with me. However, seeing them huddled up in our house like that without conflicting with each other and all with the same purpose of meeting her, she must’ve been overwhelmed. Or even if she did not, Hana finally witnessed how serious the girls were regarding her intention of stealing me.

Well, I doubt that would hinder her a lot for tomorrow. There’s a possibility that her fighting spirit got boosted from experiencing that. We’ll find out tomorrow.

Upon arriving in our city, Auntie Misora offered to drive me home. However, with Yua asleep throughout our journey back, I turned that down and offered to help her carry the girl to her room.

I could just walk from their house to the station, after all.

Auntie Misora tried to argue that she could do it but seeing my determined look, she eventually gave up.

I got called stubborn again but I guess that was in a good way. Right?

Anyway, I didn’t overstay and left as soon as I tucked the girl in her bed.

Not long after that, I made it safely back to our house before midnight.

Akane, Yae and Edel welcomed me at the door, all of them already wearing their sleepwear. And obviously, each one was alluringly beautiful, and I couldn’t help but jump in their embrace, resting my exhausted body while wrapped in their blissful softness and addictive fragrance.

When I recovered enough, Yae and I took a bath together. It’s been a while since we’ve been alone together so… it only took a hot shower for us to instantly get into the mood.

While talking about important things such as the state of their household as well as her decision to try and enact the plan of using Akane as cover to ask her parents to allow her to stay for a few days outside their house, I lifted her leg and entered her depths. Yae’s lovely moans echoed in the bathroom as her whole body trembled in pleasure at every thrust of my hips.

Since it’s been more than a week since we did it, Yae’s inexhaustible desire for me swelled even further. She asked me to be a little rougher with her, enough to weaken her knees from multiple climaxes.

I naturally complied. Taking her from the front, behind and any other position we could accomplish, I filled her up completely.

Due to that, when we finally got inside the tub, the girl peacefully relaxed in my embrace, a satisfied smile on her lips. And when we returned to join Akane and Edel in the bed, Yae simply took her place on my side and let my lovely koala climb and cuddle on top of me.

Anyway, with Yae’s problem already out of the way, our night consisted of talking about everything that happened on both our ends before the four of us slipped into sleep.

First, I told them everything starting from my trip to check on Ishida-senpai and Auntie Yayoi, the encounters at the train, and the experience in that photoshoot. I also added that act I did for Juri. I only omitted the fact that I called Otoha’s grandfather for a favor.

It’s the same as my reasoning for not telling Otoha that her grandfather asked me to do something for him. My girls are smart, after all. They’ll find it weird that I can easily call in a favor like that.

Anyway, that’s that on their end. They all commented about the offer I got from Mashiro-san, as well as my budding relationship with Juri.

Akane was mostly teasing me though, saying that our trip next week might be the trigger for Juri to change her mind completely concerning her interest in me. On the other hand, Yae and Edel were a little skeptical at how Juri claimed to have no romantic interest in me but rely on me for something as important as that. They even pointed out the act where she hugged me tightly when it was clearly unnecessary considering the man already bought our act.

Well, I never saw it as anything other than a supplement to our act.

After that topic, I got to hear what exactly happened earlier. Hana arrived and bravely entered the front door to check how many girls there were or perhaps to search for me inside. She’s like a knight entering an enemy fortress to assassinate the commander.

Too bad, the commander wasn’t inside and it turned out to be a trap. She got surrounded right away without any path of retreat.

Edel said as she tried to recall what happened earlier, “Hana is very beautiful… but scary.”

Yeah. She’s just at the back of the row, not daring to come in front. While she had no qualms interacting with someone of the same gender, Hana’s personality was too much for her.

Yae added, “She’s definitely different from most of us. If I have to point out something, only Haruko managed to fully grasp the girl. She said Hana isn’t that confident with her ability to steal you, sweetie. However, she believes in you more than anyone else.”

She believes in me, huh? If that’s the case, it was probably born from how I was the only one that saw her differently back then. And that made her too attached to me.

Even after more than three years, that attachment hadn’t been severed yet.

And lastly, Akane concluded, “Un. She’s also different from yesterday. The Hana of yesterday was cordial enough to greet me. But today, she kept her head held high. The only time she lowered her head was when she was checking her phone. Maybe she’s waiting for your message.”

Well, she’s waiting for my reply, sure. But those messages that sounded like Hana’s commentary regarding the girls were surely sent during those times.

In short, even though she’s asking me for help. She remained unfazed in front of them… She’s only revealing her weak side to me.

Whether that’s genuine or just her way to appeal to me, I would only be able to determine that starting tomorrow. When she will finally shows up in front of me.

“Hmm… Then what do you all think I should do about her? I want to hear your opinions. Your personal opinions.”

When they finished narrating what happened earlier, I brought that question up as our closing topic.

I wanted to hear their honest thoughts about the girl now that they finally met her—their honest opinions without consideration over our complex relationship.

The three immediately went silent and contemplated on how they word it. The first one to come up with an answer was… the koala nestled on top of me.

“Uhm… I like her. I can see myself in her when I refuse to open up to anyone. If anyone’s going to change her views about human interactions, it’s you, Ruki. The same way you did for all of us.”

Next, Yae. “Unless she changed that fake smile of hers, we won’t get along, sweetie. We can keep our thoughts to ourselves but I see her as the type to maintain her public persona even if it’s already not an advantage for her.”

A positive and negative comment. Edel’s answer was something I expected. And instead of Edel, I’d say Yae had the most similarity to Hana. In her class, she’s also friendly to everyone regardless of their gender. Only those who would try and approach her with the intention to court her would be shut down mercilessly. Although she somewhat entertained a suitor before, she probably only did that to invoke the feeling of jealousy in me.

Moving on, to finish it off, Akane’s answer was neutral and filled with confidence. “I changed my mind about her. She’s not a threat to us, husband. If she shows up at our doorstep again. I’ll invite her in and drink tea with her. And if you’re here with us… I won’t mind it if she clings to you and shows her true self. She’s a lonely girl who firmly believes that her happiness lies in you. I think she’ll continue loving you even if you end up pushing her away like you did to me before.”

For the girl to say that much after only interacting with her twice… Yae was wrong that only Haruko managed to grasp Hana’s personality. Akane also had a deeper understanding of her.
