Chapter 980: Nakano Yotsuba’s Winning Route
The sports field remained the same as usual, except for two people in the corner, stretching silently under the bright blue sky.
Hiding behind the shadows under the tree to enjoy the coolness and gaze at the blue sky, Yotsuba asked with curiosity.
"Asada-san, what does happiness mean to you?"
"Happiness?" Shinichi without asking for a reason, immediately went into answering mode, "It's hard to say... Happiness can be dissected from physiology and physics, and can also be analyzed deeply using theology and philosophy. It belongs to reason, and sensitivity can divide complex vocabularies from their own answers..."
"So, which one do you want to hear?"
"...Ehehe."
Yotsuba smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to answer. She never understood what people meant when they spoke nonsense, and if it ever reached her ears, it was all nonsense.
Because of this, she often felt frustrated with the awkwardness and sluggishness of others. If it were someone else, she should be able to complain or respond properly.
But someone would comfort her like this: "I'm just a hobby of talking nonsense. I don't intend for others to understand it. As long as you're willing to listen to me."
Since Shinichi said that, Yotsuba had no intention of pitying him further.
"Wow, I didn't expect happiness to have such a complicated definition..."
Reluctantly uttering unclear words, Yotsuba skipped her words and continued:
"Asada-san, do you remember?"
"We've discussed it before, what can we do to make everyone happy... No one will be sad, no one will leave, and everyone can smile happily. How can we achieve the end of the story?"
Shinichi glanced at her, but Yotsuba folded her legs and smiled on her knees.
"I still remember."
"I thought that was true happiness."
Looking into him eyes, looking at himself and the sky, Yotsuba said slowly:
"I don't want to see everyone mess up, I also don't want gentle Asada-san to make cruel choices. When I see you in trouble, I feel uncomfortable and want to do my best to help you. No matter the cost..."
Shinichi directed his gaze towards the blue sky, relaxing his body, and leaning against the tree trunk.
"That's why you said to me at that time, 'Asada-san, be a scoundrel! I'll support you! Don't worry about law and ethics, let's make everyone happy together!'—"
He couldn't hold back his laughter.
"Such a silly thing, right?"
"Mhm."
Yotsuba sighed with a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Just talking about me, Asada-san clearly was very shaken. At that time..."
"Ahem..."
Shinichi was too embarrassed to look at her. When he didn't speak, Yotsuba frowned and stared at the side of his face, preparing for a protracted battle.
But not long after, Shinichi raised his hand in surrender.
"Okay, I admit, I was really touched when you said that. At that time, coincidentally, I had an idea to make everyone happy. If I could get your support from the beginning, how could I still hesitate?
Shinichi sighed.
"If no one can choose, then I want everything. Better to be too greedy than to quarrel with everyone... Regardless, we all had this idea at that time."
"Um."
Yotsuba nodded slightly, but didn't divert her gaze. A pair of unmoving blue eyes stared straight and silently at him.
"So why did you ultimately choose only me?"
"..."
Her voice blew clearly in the wind, gently tapping the ripples of memories.
Shinichi glanced at a pair of rabbit ear headbands fluttering in the wind, and said powerless.
"I remember I gave the reason."
"Because, Asada-san really likes me." Yotsuba blushed.
The person in front of her not only liked talking nonsense but also adept at uttering embarrassing words of love.
"But even so, you should also have a good impression of Ichika and the others... Especially Miku!" Quickly focusing on his point, Yotsuba said hesitantly, "Didn't you hesitate at all, Asada-san, when I made that suggestion?"
"Yeah, that's true."
Shinichi didn't deny it, staring into the sky, and suddenly sighed.
"But that day, I got a new idea."
Yotsuba always felt like she was discussing a famous sentence, but because she didn't know the reason, she remained silent and listened.
"I found that once a few hearts are given, it's hard to take them back." Shinichi said with a smile on his lips and a casual tone.
"Moreover, I can't force the girl I like the most and exploit her gentleness to like another girl... I really don't have the talent to be a scoundrel."
"I did it willingly, and I didn't force it..." Before Yotsuba finished speaking, Shinichi stared at her and his eyes narrowed.
"Is that so? Then I'll confess to others now. From now on, the time you and I spend alone, dating, whispering, holding hands, and hugging... It will all be shared and taken by someone else."
"Even if it's your sister, would you do it?"
"..."
Yotsuba opened her mouth but couldn't speak.
She wanted to say "Of course", but when she thought of that scene, she felt a painful ache in her heart that made her chest tight, her throat felt choked, and she couldn't make a sound.
In the end, Yotsuba bowed her head in despair.
"I can't lie to Asada-san..."
"No, you can't lie to yourself."
Shinichi reached out to press her rabbit ear ribbon, then wrapped it around her head, taking all her warmth into his embrace.
"If you don't want to, of course, I won't. My heart is set on you, so it's only natural that I choose you."
"Didn't I say that on the day I confessed?"
Pressing his chin on top of her head, inhaling the familiar scent of her hair, Shinichi spoke softly with a smile.
"I'll make sure you never regret falling in love with me."
"Carrying this feeling to the end is my happiness."
The wind seemed to pause at this moment, calming the swirling leaves.
Yotsuba leaned into his embrace, unmoving as if asleep.
For a long time, she slowly grasped Shinichi's collar, her voice trembling slightly.
"This is very cunning."
"If I'm not cunning, how could I make you want to date me?" Shinichi smiled with the same smile, looking at the blue sky. "It's not easy to convince you, stubborn rabbit who cares too much about others."
"I'm just afraid for Miku and the others..."
Hearing that she had concerns, Shinichi lifted her face from his chest, and stared seriously into her wide-open eyes.
"Yotsuba, didn't you say that you would give everything for everyone, even give up your love for me?"
"A-Asada-san!?"
The words "love for me" were so embarrassing that Yotsuba blushed, her eyes darting in panic, and she couldn't think of her explanation for a moment.
However, Shinichi didn't intend to get an answer from her. After a brief pause for half a second, he continued to speak seriously.
"But whether it's love, friendship, or affection, isn't what's called love included in all of that?"
"So I believe that love doesn't mean surrendering or being persecuted, but being willing to change everything – 'a decision'."
He gazed into Yotsuba's pupils affectionately, his thumb gently stroking her smooth cheek.
"Yotsuba, do you understand this truth and my determination?"
"I..."
Under the continuous assault of the word "love" shame overflowed from her chest.
Yotsuba felt her whole body heat up, her face turning as red as a roasted rabbit, and her head spinning so much she couldn't think.
Her eyes seemed to spin, and she weakly exclaimed.
"I-I understand, please let me go..."
Shinichi nodded in satisfaction.
"Very well."
Putting her down on the ground, Yotsuba's phone lit up with a message notification. Shinichi glanced at it and a smile appeared on his lips.
"In that case, there's nothing to be afraid of next."
Yotsuba recovered from her excessive daze, looking at the message displayed on the screen with a complicated expression.
[Ichika: We've reached the rooftop, where are you?]
After leaving Shinichi's embrace, she picked up her phone, took a deep breath, and clicked on the message to reply.
[Yotsuba: Below, coming soon... After this is over, let's all go to the nearest dessert buffet and have a big feast together!]
"..."
Ten seconds passed, four messages were read, and there was no response.
Even though it was just a post, no one in her sister's group seemed willing to respond to the message.
Yotsuba bit her lower lip, put her phone back in her pocket, and stood up from the ground.
"Let's go, Asada-san."
Shinichi stood up, and before he took a step, he held her slightly trembling hand.
"Wait a moment. This time, let me ask a question."
"What?"
Yotsuba turned around in confusion.
Shinichi looked at her and asked word by word.
"What does happiness mean to you?"
"..."
Yotsuba fell silent, then slowly lowered her gaze, her eyes touching the hands of the two people holding each other.
(I'll make sure you never regret falling in love with me.)
(Carrying this feeling to the end is my happiness.)
Her words echoed in her ears.
Unconsciously, the warmth in her palm spread throughout her hand.
Yotsuba pouted, and slowly, a thin smile appeared on her face.
"My happiness..."
She lifted her gaze and looked at Shinichi.
"It's here."
She raised her gaze higher, looking up at the teaching building.
"It's there."
Slowly turning her face away, Yotsuba closed her eyes and pressed her left chest with her free hand.
"...It's also here."
Nakano Yotsuba opened her eyes, smiling enthusiastically as usual.
"Asada-san, I will never regret falling in love with you!"
"I want to change everything I like with this mood."
"Your happiness, everyone's happiness... I will do my best to protect it for you!"
The cool wind tousled her bangs, and the rabbit ear ribbon swung enthusiastically on her head.
The words spoken softly also carried a warm and bright feeling.
"This is my happiness."
Happiness belongs only to Yotsuba.
She held onto that hand tightly and landed firmly on the ground, no longer trembling.
Looking at the blue sky she usually saw, Yotsuba chuckled and nodded.
"I'm going."
And she walked with him to where destiny had been determined.
△
On the bustling street, Shinichi and Yotsuba met, and they walked side by side towards the cinema.
"But it's very rare for Yotsuba to actually say she wants to go on a date."
Shinichi gazed at the girl beside him, she always wore a rabbit ear ribbon, a face as sweet as the late afternoon sun, and slightly conservative clothes, yet she exuded an energetic aura.
(Oh, my Yotsuba is still so adorable!)
"Right, Asada-san usually takes me to various places to play, and every date leaves beautiful memories..." Unaware of her silly smile, Yotsuba clenched her hand, determination shining in her eyes.
"So today, I'm taking the initiative to ask Asada-san on a date! I'll do my best to give Asada-san the perfect dating experience, so enjoy it!"
"The idiom's wrong." Shinichi complained and nodded very cooperatively. "Alright, I'll wait and see."
"If that's the case, the first step..." Yotsuba quietly pulled a cheat sheet from her pocket, after looking at it for a few seconds, she put the cheat sheet back into her pocket.
Currently, Shinichi happened to be admiring a boy on the roadside, unaware of her cunning appearance.
"On a date, you should hold hands!"
Shinichi sighed in relief.
Although he usually took the initiative to hold hands, if Yotsuba didn't want to take over this date, three seconds after meeting, Yotsuba's hand would never leave his palm unless forced.
As he sighed emotionally, Yotsuba looked ahead, reaching out her right hand and clasping the fingers of his left hand with her own, her face blushing.
Her fingers were more moist than usual, indicating how nervous she was now.
Nevertheless, Yotsuba seemed to have made a decision and spoke shyly.
"Asada-san is mine today!"
After saying that, her face turned even redder.
"Let's go, the movie is about to start!"
No, there's still about an hour left...
Shinichi was very wise and didn't complain, but obediently guided forward by her.
They both were strolling and shopping, with Yotsuba dragging him around enthusiastically. She would come to see anything she found interesting, and she wouldn't hesitate to help an elderly woman crossing the street.
Shinichi also encountered a lost little girl, she was a foreign girl wearing white stockings, blonde hair, and orange eyes, she looked lonely and stood on the roadside in a daze.
But coincidentally, when he was holding the little girl's hand and about to find the police, the police uncle appeared from behind and grabbed his shoulder with a smile.
"Young man, a lolicon will go to jail."
Shinichi was in danger and immediately hugged Yotsuba who had just returned from buying ice cream, and said without fear.
"Sorry, I'm not a lolicon."
After wasting time on the road, they arrived at the cinema. The movie had just started.
They both sat with popcorn and coke, enjoying watching the murder love movie starring a famous actress.
"Wow, the heroine is so skilled in sewing her severed body parts back. Truly terrifying..."
After leaving the cinema, Yotsuba expressed her feelings after watching the movie with prolonged fear.
"There shouldn't be people like that in reality... How could they unite the rival lover's hands and feet to their own body..."
Shinichi wiped the cold sweat off his face.
"It's just exaggerated expression in the movie. This world is so beautiful, and there won't be irrational people like that."
"Yeah, I think so too!"
Yotsuba's expression suddenly changed. She pressed her left thigh with her left hand and took a breath.
"Oops, the stitches are not tight enough, there's a loose one..."
Shinichi: "???"
He lowered his head, hiding his expression behind the shadow, and murmured.
"As expected of an athlete, Yotsuba's thighs are different from other girls'... It seems thicker stitches could be used."
Shinichi knew that—
Ichika's voice tone.
"..."
His steps stopped in place, and a cold breeze came from the depths of his heart and reached his scalp.
Shinichi bowed his head like a machine and looked at the girl beside him, who even smiled at him.
"What's wrong, Shinichi-kun?"
"..."
Shinichi's pupils shrank, and he was frightened for less than half a second, then quickly returned to a helpless expression.
"It feels uncomfortable."
"Fufufu~" The girl covered her mouth with one hand and let out a very characteristic laugh.
"That impromptu performance was a great success! How are you, Asada-san, are you scared?"
Shinichi rolled his eyes: "I was scared, but only for a moment. When did you become so good at acting?"
Yotsuba raised her nose proudly.
"Huh, don't underestimate Yotsuba's talent! It must be said that we quintuplets are good at imitating other girls. Although Ichika and I can't lie, in terms of acting ability, I won't lose to Miku!"
As for Ichika, Yotsuba was not too exaggerated compared to the female lead in blockbuster movies.
She just wanted to imitate Shinichi's usual bad taste and tease him once.
It seems quite successful now!
"Dudulu~"
Yotsuba hugged Shinichi's arm, clinging to his shoulder, and hummed a certain anime song quickly.
Shinichi sighed deeply and seemed unbothered by her teasing earlier. As he looked at her, his eyes were full of affection and tenderness.
(But I've already started counting in my heart how to "get back" at this person properly later)
Even facing his girlfriend, Shinichi remained the petty person who had to retaliate if he wanted to retaliate.
After watching the movie, they went to the nearest cafe for afternoon tea. Since there was no juice, Yotsuba pretended to be an adult and ordered a cup of black coffee.
Then she sipped it and immediately stuck out her tongue while grimacing.
"It's so bitter~"
Shinichi already expected this, placed candies and milk balls in front of her, and leisurely sipped his cappuccino.
"Yotsuba's tongue is still like a child's."
"Hmm..." Yotsuba couldn't refute, she pursed her lips and started adding a large amount of sugar and milk balls into the brown liquid.
After sipping the coffee, which finally tasted sweet, she suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, Asada-san, don't many people say that kisses are sweet? It seems like this rumor is wrong."
Shinichi raised his eyebrows with interest: "How do you say that?"
Yotsuba raised a finger and proudly displayed her knowledge from the internet.
"Only when you kiss someone who suits you, the kiss will taste sweet. If you're not compatible with each other, even if you kiss, you'll only taste the flavor of what the other person just ate!"
"Hmm, is that so..."
Shinichi responded nonchalantly, putting down his coffee, and reaching for the menu next to him.
"In that case, let's try it."
"...Eh?"
Yotsuba looked confused and hadn't reacted yet.
Under the cover of the menu, Shinichi stepped forward and sealed the slightly open lips of the girl with his own, gently but firmly taking a breath.
"Hmm!? Hah...um...hah...!"
Yotsuba was caught off guard. The resistance that had not yet emerged completely shattered under the rapid attack. Before long, her tongue involuntarily protruded, twisted, and the sound of soft water was heard between her lips and mouth.
She could only breathe through her nose, her cheeks flushed, tears welled in her eyes, her fingers weakly grasped her arms, and her body turned into a puddle.
"Ha...um, um...mha..."
Time had no meaning at this moment, no matter how long had passed.
As the menu was put down, Shinichi also retreated to his seat.
Yotsuba fell limp on the table, her head buried in her arms, too scared to look at anyone.
"This is too sudden..."
Feeling embarrassed, happy, and panicked in her heart, she whimpered slightly. If her legs weren't so weak that she couldn't move, she would have immediately run away from the cafe.
Even if Shinichi covered them with the menu, other customers or waiters would surely notice this bold move.
Ignoring her embarrassment, Shinichi carefully sensed if saliva was there or not, then nodded thoughtfully.
"Um, it is indeed sweet."
"..."
"Did you put too much sugar and milk balls?"
"..."
Yotsuba lay silently on the table, tapping the table with tears streaming down.
Today was clearly a date she led! Why did it become a normal date again?
△
To regain victory, Yotsuba decided to follow the teasing method on the internet and went to the convenience store to buy a box of chocolate bars.
After buying it, she invited Shinichi to a quiet park and sat side by side on a bench.
She smiled and handed him a box of chocolate bars.
"Come on, Asada-san! As a thank you for taking care of me, this is a snack I bought for you. Enjoy!"
"...Thank you." Shinichi's eyes looked gentle with a hint of pity, "Although I don't know your intentions, since you gave it to me, I accept it with gratitude."
"Hey, Asada-san is so gentle~" Yotsuba smiled happily, and as Shinichi opened the box, she suddenly said.
"By the way, can you give me one? I want to have one too."
Shinichi took out a chocolate bar from its wrapper.
Yotsuba stared at him seriously, her voice as soft as cotton candy.
"Please feed me... with your mouth."
Then she closed her eyes and opened her cherry-red lips, revealing her white teeth and red mouth.
She just sat there with her mouth open, waiting for someone to put the chocolate bar into her mouth.
On the internet, it was said that most men would feel embarrassed about this, even more embarrassing than kissing.
Although Yotsuba herself felt embarrassed, rather than letting her boyfriend continue teasing her easily, it was better to fight back here and make him feel embarrassed, so that her dignity as a girlfriend could be restored!
"..."
Shinichi clearly didn't expect Yotsuba to do this, and hesitated involuntarily for two or three seconds.
After coming to his senses, he took a chocolate bar without hesitation, biting it in half, hugging the girl's soft yet very elastic body, bowing his head, and pressing his lips down.
"Mhm!"
Yotsuba's eyes widened in surprise, seeing her familiar face so close.
(Wait, doesn't this mean a lack of embarrassment?)
(I really don't believe the rumors on the internet, and I always feel that Asada-san's kissing movements are bolder and more erotic than at the coffee shop!)
(Woohoo, why did I buy him a box of chocolate bars...)
Yotsuba closed her eyes again with a sad expression on her face, and began to enjoy the kiss, slowly becoming addicted, forgetting everything else.
The only thing she remembered was the sweetness of the cappuccino and the chocolate mixed together.
△
The sun sets in the west and the day is already late afternoon.
After a slightly extreme day of dating, they both walked slowly along the street, following the remnants of the setting sun's light.
"Ah, I had so much fun today~"
Yotsuba lay back and smiled, expressing satisfaction with her travel plans except for the kiss.
"Asada-san, are you also happy?"
Shinichi subconsciously licked his lips and nodded very seriously in agreement.
"It's the happiest date ever!"
"Hehe, that's good~"
(I've visited all the places I wanted to visit, and now that I've checked all the recommended date spots, it seems like there's nothing else I can visit)
(Are we going to go home like this?)
Yotsuba felt a little regretful and involuntarily took out the cheat sheet again to see if there was a place she missed and had never visited with him.
From here, it really existed.
"..."
She suddenly stopped, and Shinichi looked at her in confusion.
"What's wrong?"
"N-Nothing!" Yotsuba was surprised, and her response became more squeaky.
She quickly put the cheat sheet back into her pocket, and her confused and awkward movements made her feel guilty.
"You're not getting a fever, are you?"
Shinichi looked at her red neck, and her breath was slightly fast. He touched her forehead and asked with concern.
"Don't worry! F-Foolish people don't catch colds!" Yotsuba puffed her chest and said calmly, as if she was hiding something.
Shinichi made sure she was okay, he continued to hold her hand and walked to the station.
Fortunately, next to them was the hotel street.
Shinichi glanced at her, planning to move forward.
The hand he was holding was pulled. He stopped and turned around in confusion.
"Yotsuba?"
"..."
Yotsuba bowed her head, and continued to exert force on her hand according to her mood.
"This is the last stop of this date... Do you want to go in and look around?"
"..."
Shinichi's eyes widened in surprise, then he slowly shook his head.
"If you're scared, don't."
"I-I'm not scared!" Suddenly she raised her head, and in the fading twilight, her face reflected as red as the setting sun.
"If it's Asada-san, I won't be afraid..."
Shinichi softened his tone.
"Whether you're afraid or not, are you mentally prepared? If not—"
Before he could finish speaking, Yotsuba let go of his hand, took out her leather bag, took out the square package from the bag, held it in her palm, and handed it to him.
"..."
Shinichi saw the words "Okamoto 001" on the package and was speechless.
(That's actually a high-end product... She's more prepared than I am)
Seeing the condom, Shinichi involuntarily pondered deeply about himself in terms of gender, and he didn't know if he should take it from her.
"Since Asada-san doesn't want it..."
Yotsuba lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, and slowly withdrew her hand.
"Then—"
This time, Shinichi grabbed her hand and interjected.
"I didn't say no."
"Eh?"
Shinichi stared at her with utter confusion, and a strange smile slowly crept onto the corners of his mouth.
Yotsuba couldn't accurately describe the meaning behind that smile... If she really wanted to say it, it could perhaps be explained in one word.
--Malice.
Or full of desire.
"I belong to Yotsuba today. You can do whatever you want. I can't refuse."
"Um, Asada-san, I think..." Yotsuba was sweating profusely and involuntarily retreated slowly.
Shinichi pushed her step by step with a smile on his face.
"If you think about it carefully, if we get on the bus earlier and pay for the ticket later, if that becomes a definite fact, it might not happen later."
"Asada-san, your expression is kind of scary..."
"Fortunately, we're adults. Next, we just need to consider the engagement and marriage dates... No, thinking like this, Okamoto-san shouldn't even show up. After all, it takes ten months to have a baby..."
Yotsuba kept retreating until her back was against the wall, with the neon lights of the love hotel beside her.
At some point, the two of them had already entered the hotel street.
Shinichi reached out, his expression becoming slightly serious.
"Allow me to ask you one last time, are you ready? I was ready to marry you back in high school."
"I..."
Seeing a face so close to hers, Yotsuba felt her heartbeat quicken, pounding loudly in her ears like drums.
She swallowed hard, her brain feeling scorched from the high temperature, and her mind went blank, leaving her unsure of what to say.
But shortly after, Yotsuba remembered what she said to someone at the beginning of the date.
"I'll do my best to give Asada-san the most perfect dating experience."
(I clearly took the initiative to make that request, but if I retreat now, this date won't end perfectly)
(Plus, I've clearly made all sorts of preparations, why would I want to run away now...)
Yotsuba gently bit her lip.
"...Asada-san."
"I'm here."
She stepped forward and hugged Shinichi tightly.
Burying her head in his embrace, Yotsuba took a deep breath and spoke softly and calmly.
"This... is the first time I've done something like this."
Shinichi smiled and hugged her back. "Coincidentally, it's my first time too."
"So..." Yotsuba lifted her head, her beautiful face flushing, and she smiled shyly.
"Although it might not be perfect, I'll try my best! I've learned some knowledge from books and videos..."
Shinichi touched her head and showed a gentle smile.
"Don't worry, the old driver is here. I'll take you to show off, lift you high, and take you to heaven all night long."
Yotsuba tilted her head, no longer understanding what he was talking about.
However, considering that today was a date she led, Shinichi had worried about her too much now, and he couldn't continue to disturb her now.
Yotsuba thought for a moment and decided to be more resilient and leave a deep memory for Shinichi.
So, a conversation like that was heard in front of a certain hotel.
"Asada-san, please don't move!"
"What are you doing?! Quickly let me down, I'm not strong enough for you to use me like this!"
"You said you belong to me today! Don't worry, there's no one here who knows us, so there's no need to worry about being recognized."
"It's so embarrassing to be seen like this! Are you a female demon dragon come to snatch a prince?!"
"No matter what you say, Asada-san, I will never disappoint you. This is my decision! Don't move when you get to the room. I'll take responsibility!"
"Wait, can't we just follow the normal procedure here..."
"NO."
"Yotsuba, you..."
"Sorry, please book a room for us... For couples, the most expensive type."
"..."
"Okay, Asada-san, let's go. I heard the bed can rotate. I'm a little curious..."
"...Ah, forget it, it's up to you."
After that, Shinichi felt relieved.
△
Several years have passed.
Next to the riverbank, two pairs of rabbit ear headbands fluttered in the wind.
"We're almost there! Kasumi-chan!"
"Hah... Ha...Mo, I can't do it anymore..."
"Alright! In that case, let's take a break."
Taking advantage of the cool breeze blowing from the riverbank, the mother and her daughter stood on the grassy embankment.
The woman with white hair tied up one hand on her hip and drank a sports drink with a bold attitude.
The little girl with green hair followed suit, lifting her head and sipping warm milk from the bottle.
"Fuah!"
They both exclaimed in satisfaction at the same time, wiping their mouths, and looking at each other with similar bright smiles on their faces.
"How was it?"
The little girl raised her thumb seriously: "Milk after exercise tastes really good!"
Asada Yotsuba burst into laughter and proudly lifted her head: "Besides, the milk was made by Mom herself, so it still tastes good!"
"Yeah, let's just say that."
"Kasumi-chan, I think your attitude is a bit sloppy..."
"It's an illusion, Mom!" Asada Kasumi, who was as big as a naughty child, sat on the grass and lay down.
Yotsuba also sat down beside her, gazing at the familiar blue sky, in a good mood, and humming a song.
"Dudulu~"
"By the way, Mom." Kasumi suddenly remembered something and tugged at her sleeve.
Yotsuba smiled and looked at her daughter: "What's up~"
Kasumi blinked her innocent eyes and asked hesitantly:
"Dad held his waist and sighed again today. Is his back hurting? Like the old uncles on the street. But Dad is obviously still very young."
Yotsuba's expression froze, and she turned around with a flushed face. She hesitated and couldn't think of any explanation she could give to her daughter who was still sitting on the kindergarten bench.
Seeing this, Kasumi stretched her arms behind her back and sighed.
"Sure enough, Mom hasn't made any progress from the past until now..."
"Kasumi-chan! I heard you, wait and run another ten kilometers!"
"Then I'll ask Aunt Ichika about Dad's back pain."
"..."
Shinichi was working when he suddenly received a phone call.
It was from his wife crying and complaining to him because their daughter was too mature for her age and was oppressing her mother.
After a few casual words of comfort, he hung up the phone and continued chatting with his colleagues next to him.
"I'm so happy to have a beautiful wife who is a retired athlete and has given birth to a beautiful daughter." A colleague said enviously.
With a happy smile on his face, Shinichi nodded in agreement and bid farewell to his colleagues after chatting for a few words.
When there was no one around, he held onto his throbbing waist and let out a heavy sigh.
"If I could go back to that date, I..."
Yotsuba shouldn't be allowed to have too much fun. As a result, it became a habit, and his body slowly became empty.
Shinichi shook his head, thinking of increasing the number of days he went to the gym to exercise, while working hard in his job as usual.
