Chapter 457: A Long List of Schedule

Chapter 457: A Long List of Schedule

After confirming my plans for today which include my meet-up with Nikaido, the date with Himeko and my first session as a Beginner Boxing Instructor, I prepared everything and told Akane and Miwa-nee about it.

Akane told me that she would come and enroll at my training program today as well as Yae, who already called me about the time when I will be picking up at the station.

Following that, more girls called me such as Aika, Miyako and Miho.

Hiyori wanted to come but because of how shy she was, she asked me to teach her privately instead.

Otoha also wanted to come but she was still grounded by her mother. Even if she made an excuse, her mother would send someone to follow her. If she found out that Otoha went to a Boxing Gym, she would hire a professional trainer for her. Just like how she has her own personal coach on her Kendo skills.

Well, that was Otoha’s speculation of her parent’s strict supervision of her.

Because of that broken engagement she had before, she’s probably being treated as a precious piece that they could use anytime once her grandfather retired from being the head of the family.

That’s why I have to meet her grandfather soon. Although I still don’t have anything to show for my desire to take Otoha from them, meeting someone that high up in standing in the society could also be treated as a test for me.

Ah. No. Even with his standing, I shouldn’t treat him as someone like that. For that meeting, he will only become the grandfather of my girl.

Will I be subdued by his pressure or will I be able to withstand it and prove myself that I can take care of Otoha?

Well, that can only be answered when that time comes.

As for the other girls such as Elizabeth, Yukari, Ririka, Mizuki and Yua, they will come tomorrow along with the other girls from my school. That mini-gym in our house will be treated as the place where I will teach them the basics of self-defense.

Tomorrow will also be the time for Haruko to sleep with us while tonight, it will be Yae’s turn. That’s why she will go with Akane to that Boxing Gym where Sena will be waiting for me after my date with Himeko.

My date with Himeko will be before lunch until three in the afternoon. I already messaged the girl and she replied telling me that her sister will be coming with us.

There goes my alone time with Himeko…

In any case, I was the one who suggested it so I could only blame myself. Furthermore, I could use this time to make that girl change her mind about my relationship with Himeko.

If she finally accepted me as her beloved sister’s man, then she wouldn’t be that hostile whenever we would meet anymore. She also wouldn’t try to influence Misaki with her hate towards me.

That forehead girl was possibly the only individual that I could call as my friend. I now had this little inclination to protect that innocent friendliness that she was giving me. Although we only talked once or twice ever since that day when she asked us to become her friend, it’s easy to see how she carried no malice towards any of us.

If Itou successfully influenced her and she tried to avoid me, I would feel it’s a shame. So… for the sake of that innocent friendship of Misaki and for Himeko to be out of her worry when it comes to her sister’s hate towards me, I had to straighten up that girl.

I could still remember that Itou was somewhat interested in me when she began chatting with Akane. However, when she found out that I was also in a relationship with her sister and noticed what we did inside that room at the Poem Appreciation Club, that interest she had was totally erased and got replaced by her hatred that I was trying to take her precious sister away from her.

After memorizing my schedule for today, I dialed a number on my phone.

It’s time to fulfill the first on the list.

“Ah, Nikaido? I will be going to the supermarket soon. Since it’s a shorter route to your home, do you want me to pick you up at your gate?”

I went straight talking about what I wanted to tell the girl even before she could say hello.

And upon hearing that, I immediately heard how Nikaido almost tumbled from her bed as she panicked on how she would answer me. Right, she had just woken up and the ringtone of her phone woke her up.

“Ruki?! Wait, I still haven’t washed my face… Are you on your way?”

“No. Not yet but I will soon.”

“Eh? Alright, I will prepare now. Do eat your breakfast there, see you soon!”

“I think you’re the one who needs to eat first. Anyway, don’t panic and wait for me. See you soon.”

A smile couldn’t help but flash on my lips as I imagined the girl who still had her bed hair and still in her pajamas frantically jumping around her room.

Although I still hadn’t given her the answer from how she was courting me, with how we kept on talking on Messenger and the sweet messages we often exchanged, she’s already aware that she’s successful.

I planned to tell her that today that’s why I thought of picking her up at her house rather than wait for her in that café we always used to meet each other.

The girl was different from most of my girls, in her case, she’s the one who tried to court me. However, although her efforts seemed clumsy, I totally appreciated everything she did.

When I sent her home last week, someone made a noise inside their house that interrupted us. I already asked her about that and she told me that it was her older cousin who was just dumped by her boyfriend and was bitter upon seeing us.

That cousin was staying at their house because she couldn’t get a place near her college.

Well, in any case, I didn’t have that much interest in knowing that cousin of hers. As long as she behaved herself upon seeing us then we wouldn’t have any problem.

After turning off my phone, I turned around and walked towards Akane who was washing the plates we used for our breakfast.

Naturally, I didn’t disturb her but helped her with it while I was waiting for a few minutes before going out to meet Eimi and restock our supplies in the house.

However, Akane was the one who tried to turn this brief time for us as a chance to bond. I indulged her and played along with her but that resulted in Miwa-nee reprimanding both of us.

Due to that, Akane behaved herself while giggling cutely as we finished our task.

She knew I would go out soon so… as soon as we dry our hands, Akane clung to me and asked for me to pamper her.

The silly girl was truly spoiled but… I didn’t mind it. In fact, her act of being this spoiled just made my day even better.

Following that, I prepared myself to set out. It’s a long day ahead. As usual.
