Chapter 114: Chapter 100: The Aptly Falling Raindrops (Vote for Monthly Ticket)
"Alright, you keep watching, I'm getting a bit sleepy,"
Haruka Yuzan pretended to yawn, sounding somewhat fatigued.
"Huh?"
Misaki Saki blinked her big eyes and lifted her little head, looking at the boy in confusion, "Did you just say you were sleepy?"
"Yeah, it's so late already."
Upon hearing this, the girl rubbed her eyes and glanced at the clock on the wall, ten eleven.
"....."
"Why are you giving me that weird look?" Haruka Yuzan, with his eyes wide open, told a blatant lie, "Ten o'clock, that's late!"
"Hey! What kind of elderly bedtime schedule is this?!" Misaki Saki had just begun to doubt whether she had misheard.
It's only ten o'clock, the perfect time to party, and here you are, a young guy, telling me you're going to bed???
Something's fishy, she thought, and with a small hand on her chin, Misaki Saki looked the boy up and down with a strange look in her eyes.
"Hey, why are you looking at me like that?" Haruka Yuzan felt a little guilty under the gaze of this little one, "It's quite normal, you slept all afternoon today, you're obviously not sleepy!"
Even though he himself had only woken up a few minutes earlier than the girl, the devil is in the details... A few minutes difference should make it completely reasonable for him to be sleepy by ten, right?
Um...
"No, something's not right!" Misaki Saki seemed to have transformed into a detective.
Detective Little Saki officially on the case!
"There's nothing wrong with feeling sleepy," Haruka Yuzan stubbornly insisted.
Suddenly, Misaki Saki seemed to think of something, and her cute face slowly revealed a sly smile,
"Let's not talk about that anymore."
This smile made Haruka Yuzan even more uneasy, "You... with all the effort you put into decorating this birthday banquet, and your relationship with Sister Reiko, when do you plan to take it to the next level???"
As she spoke, she even stretched out her petite hand, ready to gesture something.
"I just wanted to genuinely thank Sister Reiko for her efforts. Can't you stop looking at life through the rubbish in your head?" Haruka Yuzan said earnestly,
"Don't you feel sorry for Sister Reiko and Rika? Don't you want to help them? You even put so much effort into preparing a gift for Sister Reiko! I didn't even prepare one!!! Logically, you should be the most invested! Cleaning, helping out, and then taking care of the kids, you even prepared a gift all by yourself!!"
His words caught Misaki Saki off guard, and a burnt smell seemed to hang in the air,
On closer inspection, it appeared to be the smell of a CPU burning out, that innocent little head didn't seem to catch up, stunned by what Haruka had said,
"It seems... very reasonable..."
The young girl, her finger against her lips, said with a sudden realization, "It appears that I am indeed the one who put in the most effort."
She scratched the back of her head and Misaki Saki revealed a goofy smile.
"Of course, it's reasonable because I'm telling the truth."
Haruka Yuzan continued,
"Alright, I really am tired, let's talk some other day."
All of this was the truth, the girl had indeed exerted a lot of effort during Mrs. Onodera's birthday party.
What Misaki Saki couldn't have imagined was, while she was still curious about when Haruka Yuzan would break through and find himself, the boy had already achieved a milestone of great personal significance that very afternoon.
It was while she was sleeping....
Ignoring Misaki Saki, who sat on the sofa with a silly smile, she placed Roast Meat into the arms of the young girl,
The enormous fat cat lay in the girl's arms, its body instantly hiding Misaki Saki's slender waist. Its chubby bun face was filled with serenity—was it dreaming sweet dreams?
"Before you go to sleep, take Roast Meat with you, too. He's sleeping with you tonight,"
Saying this, she didn't wait for the girl to reply and left straightaway.
There Misaki Saki continued to watch TV, holding Roast Meat, still feeling something was off in her heart.
Forget it, who cares! Stop thinking so much!!
Tonight, it seems to be another sleepless night.....
......
The cool breeze from outside the window blew into the bedroom, bringing a hint of chill. In the pitch darkness of the night, the branches rustled in the wind,
Haruka Yuzan lay on the bed, comfortably enjoying the night breeze, and took out her phone.
In the pitch-dark bedroom, bathed in soft light,
"Sister Reiko, are you asleep?"
One second... two seconds... three seconds... half a minute passed before the other party replied,
"I was just about to go to sleep."
Inside another bedroom along the hallway,
Reiko Onodera was holding her phone, looking at the message the landlord had sent her,
"My shoulders feel a bit sore today, can you come over and give me a massage? [Obedient]"
In the soft glow of the phone, Mrs. Onodera's fair little face flushed slightly—but to be called over at night for a massage, what is he up to?
With that thought, Reiko Onodera couldn't help but hug the blanket a little tighter, her fair fingers slowly typing,
"Can we do it tomorrow, Haruka...?"
"Sister Reiko, my shoulders are really too sore. [Pain]"
The boy's reply came quickly, as if he already knew exactly what Mrs. Onodera was going to say, responding immediately.
"Well... okay then."
After typing a line and pressing send, Reiko Onodera turned off her phone and sat up in bed.
Mrs. Onodera wore the nightgown the boy had given her to bed, her long black hair cascading to her waist like a waterfall. Her graceful chest rose like mountains, and her pretty fair face glowed with a touch of soft red.
Her voluptuous long legs were covered by the nightgown, leaving a section of fair shins exposed. She tiptoed out of the door somewhat stealthily.
The hallway was bathed in a soft, dim light, not as strong as the light shining from the living room downstairs.
Looking over the railing, she saw Misaki Saki sitting on the sofa, watching TV with Roast Meat in her arms.
Reiko Onodera withdrew her gaze and continued to move forward quietly, afraid of making any noise.
The door wasn't completely shut; it seemed the person inside had purposely left a small gap.
After taking a deep breath, Reiko Onodera felt her little face burning up. She gently pushed, and the door opened.
The room was still somewhat dark, after acclimatizing for a while, she went in, closed the door, and locked it...
"Sister Reiko, have you arrived?"
Haruka Yuzan, lying on the bed, looked at Reiko Onodera standing at the door, showing a look of discomfort, "Sister Reiko, my shoulder is a bit sore, can you help me check it out?"
Seeing that the boy seemed to be really uncomfortable, Reiko Onodera put away her shyness and walked over with some nervousness,
"Is it alright, Haruka?"
Haruka Yuzan looked up to see Madam's calves, so close at hand, and revealed a relaxed smile,
"It's a little sore, Sister Reiko, could you please press on it for me...."
As he spoke, he looked up at Madam with apologetic eyes, "Sorry for bothering you so late."
"It's okay, just lie down and don't move, I'll press it for you."
Reiko Onodera's eyes showed a look of worry, it turned out that the little landlord was really in discomfort; she had thought...
Her slender fingers skillfully pressed gently on the boy's shoulder,
Haruka Yuzan, greatly enjoying it, closed his eyes, and stretched his hand forward, unconsciously placing it on Madam's exposed beautiful legs.
The fair and smooth skin, when first touched, clearly conveyed Madam's shiver.
Slowly, that big hand began....
Reiko Onodera's face got even hotter....
"Hmm?"
Not long after, Haruka Yuzan stood up, and with a strong move, he held Madam in his arms.
"Haruka... Haruka....."
Feeling the enchanting lady in his arms, warm and soft, he moved his head directly towards that rosy little mouth and kissed it.
"Mmm mmm mmm!"
This nightgown, Haruka Yuzan could only say he had made the right purchase, it really was convenient.
It was just that, at the beginning, there was a novelty that warranted its use, but later on, it wasn't needed anymore.
....
The rain outside,
finally started to come down; at first, drop by drop, pitter-patter, the small rain moistened the ground,
and as time went by, the puddles on the side of the road grew larger, and one could easily slip if not careful.
Until half an hour later, a torrential downpour suddenly unleashed, as if it was making up for many years of heavy rain in one go!
Looking at the warning alert on her phone, Misaki Saki pursed her lips - it had already started raining, what use was a warning now?
Putting away her phone, she glanced out at the rainy scene through the window, the flowers in the little garden that Mrs. Onodera had always tended to were now suffering the ruthless onslaught, which was rather distressing, and the wide French windows gradually became blurred.
After enjoying the rain scene for a while, the girl put the chubby cat down from her arms, and trotted off to turn off the lights and television in the living room.
In an instant, the villa plunged into darkness and silence, with only the faint sound of the "whooshing" rain heard in her ears.
"Bump!"
"Ouch!"
Apparently knocking into something, Misaki Saki exclaimed in the darkness, followed by a faint soft glow lighting up,
Using the light from her phone, she first looked at her thigh, which was a bit red, and after rubbing it a couple of times, she moved over to the sofa.
Looking at the roast meat still sweetly asleep, the young girl puffed up with irritation,
"You're sleeping so soundly, you almost killed me just now."
Just now, she hadn't been paying attention and her little legs had knocked against the corner of the table.
A bit angry, she held the chubby cat in her arms and headed upstairs.
Why did Haruka Yuzan have to dump this fat cat on me?
The young girl holding the phone and carrying roast meat struggled, as the chubby cat's body naturally hung down, stretched long while swaying in the air,
Looking at those long stairs, Misaki Saki suddenly felt a desire to cry.
There was no choice but to carry the cat up the stairs one step at a time.
Halfway through, roast meat woke up for a moment, drowsily opened those bean eyes, and feeling its body swinging comfortably in the air, it fell back into a deep sleep.
"Phew!"
Finally, with Misaki Saki's unremitting efforts, she successfully reached the second floor with roast meat in tow.
There was no choice, the chubby cat had gained quite a bit of weight recently, and now few people were willing to hold it.
As she passed the boy's room door, she took a glance at the wooden door, Misaki Saki feeling like a victim,
She passed by thoughtfully - this guy, going to sleep so early, you never know what mischief he's up to!!
Today he didn't give me any inspiration either!!!
It always felt like there was something inside the room door, as if it was exactly what she had been desperately searching for. After a deep look, she ultimately left with roast meat in her arms.
Just upon mentioning inspiration, Misaki Saki had a great idea pop into her mind, and while she was in the zone, she needed to record it quickly.
As for Haruka Yuzan... she would settle accounts with that guy tomorrow!!!
