Chapter 306
306 – [Side Story] How the Main Character Appears at the End
A packed tram on the way home.
Originally, we would have had to part ways, but since today is Valentine’s Day, I especially invited Karen and Rika to my house.
“So, is this Karen’s first time going to my house?”
“Yes, that’s right. That’s why I’m a little excited.”
The Chairman, Rika, and even Sasha have been to Mikoya before, but when I think about it, Karen is the only one who has never been there.
Good things are good things, so I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to stamp my face on my parents.
“Ugh, what should I buy as a gift?”
“I’m going to a friend’s house, so I need some kind of gift. I can just go barefoot.”
“But this is my first time meeting my father and mother… “
Unlike her usual easy-going behavior, Karen is extremely anxious.
I think it was because she grew up in a yakuza family and valued formality.
I encouraged Karen and woke up Rika, who was dozing off in her subway chair.
Because she had to get off slowly.
“Ahhh~ Have you arrived already?”
“You have to get off at the next station.”
I don’t know if it was because it was right after something like that had happened at school, or because she was just tired, but Rika, who had slept well all the way home, stretched out and stood up.
After we all got off the subway, the sun was already setting by the time we came up from the subway station.
We walked along the dusky orange paved road for about 10 minutes.
If you turn right at the intersection where Ryuji lives, the large tower mention, you will see our store right in front.
“Miko…”
Karen muttered the name of the store as if it were fascinating, perhaps because she had eaten a lot of the food I cooked, but she was seeing the real thing for the first time.
“I’ve been there.”
As I entered the store, lifting the orange noren hanging at the entrance, I heard a somewhat familiar voice.
“Ohhohohohoho! Let’s try the pork rice bowl made by my father!”
“… Chairman?”
Surprisingly, what greeted me as soon as I entered the store was the chairman, who was serving customers wearing an apron with the store name written on it, just like when he lived in my house before.
***
When I returned home, the chairman, who was in the middle of a meeting with overseas buyers in Kyoto, was wearing a store apron and working in the hall.
I momentarily doubted my eyes at this eerie sight that was difficult to express in words, but even after rubbing my eyes, I realized that it was the Chairman and hurriedly asked.
“How is the Chairman here?!”
Then the chairman let out a small exclamation of “Oh my!” And he responded with a bright smile.
“Still, it’s Valentine’s Day, but I think it’s a bit weird to pass by without seeing Yooseong-gun’s face. I finished everything in the morning and took the Shinkansen to Tokyo in the afternoon.”
After saying that, the chairman recognized Rika and Karen standing behind me and waved lightly.
“It’s been a while for you two. Was it the first time since Christmas?”
“Oh, yes. Hello.”
“Hello.”
Rika and Karen seemed to be equally confused.
She came to visit her boyfriend’s house with a light heart, and it felt like meeting her husband out of nowhere.
At that time, someone appeared who could solve this awkward atmosphere.
“Yuseong, are you here now?”
Ms. Lee Mi-ja, who had just come out of the kitchen, smiled and patted her chairman on the shoulder.
“You said you didn’t have to help, but the president girl refused so much that you put on an apron and helped her. Thanks to that, Mom and Dad were able to work comfortably in the afternoon.”
“Hehe, the praise is excessive, mother.”
“Oh my, what does he say?”
The president naturally shows off her closeness with her mother her her her.
Seeing that scene, Rika seemed to have developed a strange sense of competition, and Rika joined in with excessively heightened tension.
“Mom! It’s been a while!”
“Oh my! It’s not Ms. Rika!”
The mother recognizes Rika’s face and accepts her with the same tension.
This person showed off his friendliness by leading the conversation with a Kapabara-level friendliness that the chairman does not have.
“Mama said the soup she ate last time was delicious, and she asked me to tell you the story.”
“Oh? So? They say Cheonggukjang doesn’t suit foreigners’ tastes, so I’m glad to hear that.”
A fierce fight between the prospective daughters-in-law to win points with Ms. Lee Mi-ja, who may become her mother-in-law in the future.
At that time, Ms. Lee Mi-ja, who found Karen who was not easily able to keep up with this atmosphere, asked with her eyes shining.
“Oh my, who is this lady?”
Then, Karen, who had been pointed out directly, said,
“Oh, hello. My name is Karen Tojo. She is… I guess you could say she is friends with Yoosung… Please take care of me?”
Because the voice she was creeping in behind her, unless she had good hearing like me, Karen couldn’t understand what she was saying, but that didn’t seem to matter to Ms. Lee Mi-ja.
“It’s cute!”
This is because the small and petite Karen perfectly fits the taste of Ms. Lee Mi-ja, who usually likes cute things.
“?!”
Karen’s expression she was stiff, perhaps because she didn’t expect to be hugged suddenly.
Be that as it may, Ms. Lee Mi-ja held Karen in her arms and rubbed her cheek against her soft hair as if she were petting her cat.
“Oh my, I didn’t know Yooseong had such a cute friend.”
“…”
“…”
The expressions on the other two women’s faces as they looked at Ms. Lee Mi-ja and Karen were unusual, but I decided to pretend not to see them.
If you try to get involved in women’s fights, you won’t hear anything good, because you’ve learned from past experiences.
***
It was about 5 minutes later that Karen was liberated.
If the store wasn’t open now, it would have taken much longer, but her mother let Karen go as if she had no choice due to the continued urging of the customers.
“Chairman, the store is okay now, so you can go up and rest.”
“Huh? Is it okay if I don’t help you any more?”
“This is okay. I used to do this on my own.”
When Ms. Lee Mi-ja said that and pushed her president’s back, the president took off her apron and returned it with a reluctant expression.
“I’ll help you next time I come.”
“Oh my, are you already making reservations for the next one?”
The chairman’s face was red and he couldn’t say anything.
Mrs. Lee Mi-ja, who was looking at the Chairman like he was cute, tapped my shoulder and spoke in a whisper.
“I have cookies and Japanese sweets at home, so serve them.”
“Yes.”
“Son, why did you pretend to be unpopular when you had so many pretty friends?”
“… I will have no comment.”
After exercising my right to remain silent, I went up to the second floor as if running away.
***
So, after going through many hardships, we arrived at our house.
After having the Chairman, Rika, and Karen sit in the living room, I went into the kitchen and prepared a simple refreshment table.
As I took my mother’s favorite high-quality snacks and Japanese confectionery that came during the holidays, beautifully arranged on a plate and left, surprisingly, the three of them were talking normally.
“What are you talking about like that?”
When I put down the tray and asked, the chairman smiled elegantly, covering his mouth with the fan he always carried.
“Hohoho, we didn’t say much. Should I just say it was a simple chat? Still, since it’s Valentine’s Day in name, I was curious about what gifts they had prepared for each other.”
“Aha.”
I put down a cup in front of each person.
Green tea (Chairman), black tea (Lika), and coffee (Karen) are available to suit the tastes of the three people, respectively.
“From what I heard, it seems like Rika hasn’t given you a gift yet. Can I give it to you first?”
“Huh? Oh, yes. I don’t mind.”
I wondered if it was necessary to get permission from me, but after receiving my permission, the chairman suddenly started taking off his clothes.
“W-what are you doing?!”
When I raised my voice in surprise, the chairman spoke with a very serious expression.
“Actually, I was very worried because it was our first Valentine’s Day since we became lovers. I thought it would be too ordinary to just give him chocolate, and I thought Yoosung would feel burdened if I gave him another gift. So I thought about it alone. While I was there, Minami told me that Japan has an excellent culture called naked chocolate.”
Minamiii!
I screamed out the name of Minami, who had instilled strange common sense into the chairman, but the incident was already happening right in front of my eyes.
The chairman, who was half-naked and looked even s*xier, spoke while supporting his voluptuous chest with one arm.
“The Valentine’s chocolate I am giving to Yoosung is myself&”
While saying that, the chairman sprinkles chocolate syrup that he took out from somewhere between his cleavages.
As her lower body unconsciously reacted to that incredibly provocative appearance, Rika, feeling a strange sense of competition again, perhaps hurriedly took off the Maiwa blouse she was wearing.
“I want to do it too! Naked chocolate!”
At the same time, she presses her breasts, which are wrapped in a white bra.
In this respect, only Karen, who still has a pure side, was left speechless, not knowing what to do. The situation was just five minutes ago.
I was slowly backing away to avoid the two people’s body attacks, but at some point I realized that there was no place for me to retreat anymore and looked at Karen for help.
Then Karen must have sensed my distress signal and took off the clothes she was wearing… Are you taking your clothes off too?
I watched as even Karen, her last her conscience her her her, joined the two’s rampage, covering her forehead her her with her her palm her in her droves of devastation.
