Stealing Spree

Like I planned, as soon as I finished walking my girls to their doorstep, I didn’t waste my time and immediately set out to another destination. I have a few hours to kill so... I’ll spend it in a way that I can also surprise my girls.

There’s no one in our house at the moment. Akane accompanied us when I walked Eimi back to their house. That silly girl had this idea to show up there and formally introduce herself as Eimi’s friend. Back when we brought her in for a study session at our house, they didn’t actually believe that she was just there for it. Her parents had a hunch that it was also to meet with me.

In this way, it would become more believable that instead of visiting me often, Eimi was also visiting her friend sometimes.

But well, that’s just a temporary solution. Soon. When I start picking her up while her parents are at home, I have to also formally ask their permission every time. To build up more of their trust in me.

In any case, Akane didn’t just have that one agenda. For her housewife training, she’s planning to learn more culinary skills through Eimi and perhaps her parents who are certified cooks.

Really, she’s just doing whatever she wants. However, it’s undeniable that her efforts are all for me. No way I will scold her for that.

As for the three, I walked them home in the order of Miyako, Haruko, and lastly Edel.

Ah. Right. Before I left, my lovely koala invited me to her unit just so we could cuddle in her bed. Or rather, to have my scent in it again.

And while doing so, she mentioned to me that her mother has contacted her recently. It’s nothing serious, her mother was just checking on her. Given that she’s alone in a foreign country, her mother is concerned that she’s having a hard time.

For her answer, she sent her mother some photos with Haruko and the other girls, showcasing that she’s not alone and she has friends here. When she scrolled further down, she also sent a photo of us together. In it, Edel was clinging to me tightly while shyly smiling in front of the camera. On the other hand, I’m holding her closely and affectionately while smiling just the same.

Because of that, the last message from her mother ended with a question, “Who is that young man?”

It’s in a different language so she had to translate it for me.

As someone aware of her state after what her daughter went through, that question probably had a lot of underlying meanings. Such as, whether she overcame her trauma or not as well as if I am the one responsible for it.

She has yet to reply to that question. And like I expected, the girl wanted to show it to me first.

Well, when I saw the look in her eyes that seemed to say ‘I like to introduce you to her, Ruki’, I went and suggested that to her. And that instantly made the adorable koala hug me tighter in delight.

Then for the next few minutes, our desire for each other flared up as the simple cuddling gradually turned more intimate. And for the first time, we made love on her bed.

Before I left, Edel showed me her reply to her mother. She told her my name and how important I am to her. Furthermore, she’s asking when she will be free. That way, Edel can bring me to start a video call with her mother.

Mhm... Looks like I also need to ask the girl to teach me some basic words from their native tongue. That way, I won’t embarrass myself in front of her mother.

“Looks like you’re expecting me, Rumi,” I said as soon as the girl showed up from inside her house, a few seconds after I pressed the doorbell.

Upon hearing that, Rumi puffed her cheeks and slanted her eyebrows as she attempted to deny it, “I’m not! I just happened to be near the intercom when you rang the doorbell!”

“Is that so? Alright then.” I shrugged and didn’t pursue it anymore.

Perhaps thinking that it was unusual for me to do that, my dear Club President cautiously approached the gate while keeping an eye out for me. I mean, it’s understandable. That was a clear entry point to tease her further yet, I opted not to take it.

Is she looking forward to me teasing her? Maybe. Or she’s just not used to me giving up that chance to tease her.

In any case, as the girl glared at me when opening their gate to let me in, I kept an amused expression, enjoying every change in her expression.

By the time I stepped inside and locked her in my embrace, her slanted eyebrows were already relaxed and her expression softened up.

And as soon as we stepped inside their front door, I couldn’t help myself greeting her once again but this time through an intimate action; kissing her deeply as we slowly moved towards their spacious living room.

“Don’t look at me like that, Rumi. I’m here for a reason. Not just to visit and tease you.”

“Really?”

“You don’t believe me?”

“How can I when you didn’t bring anything else with you but yourself?” 𝒷ℯ𝓭𝓷ℴ𝓋𝓮𝓵.𝒸ℴ𝓶

Alright. I had this thought of bringing my notes for the scenario I am supposed to write. But I forgot about it. I only remembered when I was already a few steps away from her house. No way I could still go back to pick it up, right?

The better choice was not to mention it since I had already forgotten. However, knowing this diligent girl, she’s definitely hoping that I’m not here just to tease her or get in her pants.

While she’s happy to see me, if I only showed her my perverted side, it would do me no good in the long run. Besides, I’m kind of afraid to continue disappointing her when it comes to my commitment to our club.

Unfortunately, now that she pointed that out, I could only raise my arms in surrender and admit it, “You’re right. I guess that’s a blunder on my part.”

Rumi leered at me, perhaps trying to discern my intention. A few seconds later, she released a sigh while grabbing my hand and squeezing it in between her palms.

“Idiot. Stop looking like that. There’s nothing wrong with admitting that you came here without a proper reason other than to see me. I’ll be happier that way.”

Upon saying that, Rumi gently rested her head on my shoulder while she continued squeezing and playing with the hand she grabbed.

At this point, I decided to drop that earlier sentiment and steer our conversation back to a more lighthearted tone. There’s no point using an excuse that lame with nothing to show for it, after all. I better do what I’m good at instead.

Either teasing her or making her feel more special using whatever we have on hand. I will also not be able to stay for too long so... there’s no point trying to make it complicated.

“Uh. I admit. I’m here to see you. That’s the largest part of my reason for showing up unannounced. The remaining part is just what I set aside for our club. What do you think about that divide?”

Along with a giggle, Rumi caught on quickly as she played along with me, “I’d say 20 points. You know how I love our club more than you, right?”

“Right. I’m only second to the Literature Club...” I pursed my lips and acted a little sullen. Then after pulling my hand out of her grasp, I slowly moved my body and eventually laid my head down on her lap. “... Too bad for the club though. It can’t have a lap pillow like this.”

Even though she keenly watched what I was going to do, Rumi didn’t stop me. She pressed her legs closer just so she could accommodate my head.

With her hand immediately landing on my hair, combing it with her fingers and the other keeping its hold on my hand, Rumi glanced down at me while donning an entertained expression. “I didn’t tell you to compete with the club, you shameless idiot... What are we gonna do? Will you spend your time just using my lap as your pillow?”

“If possible, yes. However, I don’t want you to feel numb in your thighs so, can you give me a tour later, Rumi? I’ve been here three times and I have yet to get a full tour.”

“A tour? No problem. In the meantime, I believe you have something else you want to tell me. Am I right?”

“Is it that obvious?”

“Not really. But after getting close to you, I can finally understand how Kana and Mirae-chan can deduce what’s in your head. You’re the type who keeps your guard down to someone you fully trust or love. That’s how I noticed it. Something must’ve been on your mind.”

“Ah. Yeah. That’s mostly correct. I don’t need to put up my guard in front of all of you... Or better yet, I deemed it unnecessary.”

“You’re really an idiot, Ruki. So, what is it? Let me hear it. Nothing can faze me by now after seeing the extent of your shamelessness.”

I answered with a wry smile, “I don’t know if I can take that as a positive... In any case, here...”

What I told her was the same as everything I told the other girls regarding Marika and Ichihara Jun. She expressed her worry, of course. However, in the end, she also expressed her complete trust in me. Since it’s out of her hands, she could only advise me to be careful.

And perhaps she’s thinking that I could use a hug, Rumi eventually laid down with me. She squeezed into my embrace and almost fell asleep there.
