Chapter 1089 Improvement

??My meeting with Eimi’s parents didn’t last as long as I thought it would. It ended in a breeze which made it feel like I wasn’t really facing my girl’s parents.

??The couple conversed with each other for almost 90% of the time I was there in front of them. It’s as though they had their own world. The last 10% was split between teasing their daughter who’s finally stepping her foot to becoming an adult by showing off her boyfriend and getting to know the said boyfriend.

??From what I observed, Eimi being in a relationship wasn’t really an issue to them as long as the girl refrained from doing anything that would betray their trust. As for the scope of what’s really forbidden for her to do, one thing for example was staying out late at night.

??Back when I brought her home where we reviewed for the midterms, they’re actually suspecting that even if Akane was the one who invited her, the boy she’s dating would also be there.

??Nonetheless, sending her home before her curfew made them not pursue it.

??Yep. They mentioned that within the 5% of attention I received from them. And since I wanted to give them a good impression of myself, I confessed that I was there that night. Also, I confessed that I’ve been inside their or even Eimi’s room a few times already.

??Eimi seemingly panicked at that point. I held her hand and had her look at me to calm her down. It was effective.

??The girls simply folded and snuggled even closer to me. Which came to her parents as another delightful surprise.

??Perhaps my honesty and the way I calmed down Eimi were counted as a factor, the couple also let my confessions pass. Or rather, they wouldn’t mind me visiting their house even if they’re not home or even entering Eimi’s room.

??However, it probably also has limitations that remained vague. In a way, it’s like they’re letting me set the boundary on what I can and can’t do.

??Furthermore, her father whispered something to me…

??And it’s in a voice that made the hairs on my skin stand from how chilly it was. Despite my confidence to win a fight even against adults, the way he delivered that was more than a threat rather than a warning.

??Nonetheless, its content wasn’t really that bone-chilling.

??‘Onoda-kun. If you two ever get to the point of doing it… You know? Sex. Do not forget to use protection. I believe reminding you once is enough, am I right?’

??Yep. For her father to say that, it’s a lot different than what I experienced from Elizabeth’s father…

??While they’re both protective of their daughters, one probably wanted her to remain innocent as much as possible while the other doesn’t mind for his daughter to climb the steps of adulthood as long as there won’t be something like accidental pregnancy while she’s still in school.

??If the public were to be asked, they would probably condemn Eimi’s father and nod in agreement with Elizabeth’s father. However, a majority would most likely keep to themselves that they prefer and wish for their in-law or just the father of their beloved to be like Eimi’s father.

??Yeah. Most people were hypocrites, after all. They go along with the flow while keeping their darkest desires hidden inside themselves.

??Anyway, he’d probably kill me if I told him that we’re not going to do that if ever we reached that point… I mean, we’re only opting to use it when it is truly dangerous like their ovulation day.

??But I guess I will tell Eimi about it and ask her opinion when the time comes. Although we haven’t progressed to that point yet, it’s undeniable how much I’m enjoying her company. Otherwise, I won’t be here every week to see her.

??“Look at them go. They didn’t even give us a ride to the supermarket.” Eimi murmured at my side as we watched her parent’s van speed off the street.

??“Isn’t this what we prefer? We can enjoy our time as we walk there.”

??That’s how it always is for us… But I guess it’s also not bad to get a change of pace.

??Eimi was probably thinking about that.

??“Maybe. But Ruki, I’m hoping to spend more time with you where we will not have to mind other people’s eyes… Such as…” Eimi’s voice trailed off as her tantalizing eyes focused on me while she was doing her best not to be flustered.

??Yep. My guess was right. And going by what she failed to finish saying, I lifted her chin and completed it for her. “Your room, right?”

??“No! Our living room!”

??With how fast she corrected me, it looks like she couldn’t be too honest about what was on her mind yet.

??In any case, I didn’t point that out and simply played along. “Ah. I got that wrong.”

??Following that, I let go of her chin, clasped our hands together, and began our walk toward the supermarket.

??But ten steps later, Eimi’s subdued voice reached my ears.

??“Uhm. That’s also an option… A more private space. We can play video games or…”

??Once again, she failed to finish her words. And unlike earlier, she now failed to contain her flustered expression. The girl quickly pressed closer to me, using my arm to hide her face.

??Oh. I couldn’t help but think about how much I love to tease her… However, this time, she’s doing that to herself. All I had to do was watch her gradually turn into a tomato from being too embarrassed.

??“Alright, Eimi. Let’s finish our shopping quickly and play video games in your room.” A few dozen steps later, I blurted that out.

??Upon hearing it, the girl halted her steps. When I glanced back to check on her, she was biting her lips.

??However, instead of becoming embarrassed, I noticed how she was holding herself back from laughing. And with her eyes curved as though they were smiling, she energetically cursed at me, “Ruki, you bastard. After my parents, are you going to tease me next?”

??Since our hands remained clasped to one another, I walked back to her position and grabbed her by her hips before bringing her to a corner. Somewhere that was obscured even if a car passed by.

??“Maybe? But won’t it be weird if I refrained from teasing you? It’s like a routine by now.” I answered her as I reached for her lips and let my thumb run on them.

??While Eimi was a little surprised at what I did, she kept her free arm to her navel, perhaps still struggling to not burst into laughter, before looking up at me and biting my thumb a little.

??“Right. How can I forget? You’re a bigger tease than them. Remind me again. How did I fall for you, Ruki?”

??“Let’s see. You fell for my mysterious and aloof aura, right? What do you think? Am I still like that?”

??“This guy… You simplified it too much. And I don’t think that’s the reason I fell in love with you. Do you see this? I never grin like this to any other boys. Even to my father.” The girl grabbed my hand and used my thumb to stretch her lips to one side. But at the same time as that, she also naturally moved her facial muscles, grinning at me beautifully.

??As soon as I saw that, I stopped holding back, taking her lips as my prize.

??Who knows how long that lasted? But by the time our lips separated, we’re both flushed red from how passionate it became. Furthermore, we became more entangled than earlier. I was supporting one of her legs as she hooked it behind me.

??If someone saw us here, there’s no way they wouldn’t mistake us for someone having sex in broad daylight.

??But yeah, we haven’t reached that point yet... Besides, there’s no way I would do her in here. The last thing I needed was someone to see my girls in their vulnerable state… It’s enough that I was the only one aware of that.

??“I’m lucky.” Although late, I still uttered my response to what she said earlier.

??And this time, Eimi finally burst into a peal of laughter. “Yes, you are. Anyone with a lot of girlfriends like you will be burned at a stake if you ever say you’re unlucky.”

??“Mhm. That’s true. You won’t burn me at a stake, will you?”

??“No. But I’ll watch at the front row seat if they do.”

??“You’re improving with your comebacks.”

??“How can I not improve if my boyfriend always teases me whenever he gets the chance? I’m sure the other girls also started developing skills to tease you back.”

??“You’re not wrong…”

??Akane, Satsuki and Nami were already doing that. And now, Eimi joined their ranks.

??In any case, after we fixed ourselves, the two of us continued to our destination.

??Less than an hour later, we returned to their house. Eimi naturally invited me in. Even though Anzu was there and kept on trying to tease us, the girl brought me to her room and locked the door to prevent her cousin from annoying us.
