"I... I don't know. Everything you say is hard to believe."
Not wanting to lie, Takebayashi expressed her true thoughts.
Without showing strong evidence, even though she was blindly in love with him and had surrendered her heart and body, she couldn't believe it outright.
"Enough. Your answer is more than sufficient for me. I also know that my words sound like 'crazy and nonsensical' ramblings. The fact that you didn't outright refuse already shows how much trust you have in me."
Not only was Akira not disappointed, he was actually pleased that he wasn't immediately denied.
"Now, can you show me proof to make me believe? If not, then we should go to the hospital after this."
"Don't worry; I'm not crazy. Bring your head closer."
"Hm? You're not suddenly going to kiss me, right?"
"Who knows?"
"Mhm... Fine."
Although she didn't know what he intended to do, Takebayashi complied and leaned forward slightly.
Seeing his girlfriend's beautiful face up close, Akira reached out, moved aside her bangs, and revealed her flawless forehead without any blackheads or pimples.
"Actions speak louder than words. So, let me show you my experience directly."
"[Memory Magic]."
Before Takebayashi could ask, a large amount of information flowed into her mind.
"Mhm~..."
Suppressing the urge to sigh, she bit her lower lip so hard it almost bled.
On the other hand, Akira carefully controlled his memories, ensuring no mistakes occurred.
So far, there hadn't been any accidents when he used [Memory Control]. Nevertheless, he didn't dare to be reckless with this power, especially when dealing with anything related to the brain.
Better safe than sorry.
This was one of the principles Akira firmly held in his life.
"Done."
He withdrew his hand, leaving her to digest the new memories.
While waiting for her to process all his memories, Akira sipped on wine. After all, this wine wasn't cheap, and he didn't like wasting food and drinks.
"..."
After a full five minutes, Takebayashi returned to her senses. However, the way she looked at Akira was different from before.
Doubt and disbelief had completely disappeared, replaced by shock, astonishment, admiration, surprise, and various other complex emotions.
"Let me repeat my question... Do you believe I come from a parallel world?"
Shaking the glass in his hand, the aroma of wine wafted through the air, and Akira smiled faintly.
"Yes, I believe you."
Takebayashi nodded without any hesitation.
"Amazing. A parallel world truly exists. With this, the theory of the existence of a parallel world is no longer just a theory and can be scientifically proven. If scientists and researchers find out about this, it will cause a sensation."
As an academician, her thought process was much better than that of ordinary people.
"I know. That's why I kept this a secret. Besides my family members in this world, you are the one who knows my biggest secret, Miyako."
"I feel honored to know this, Akira-kun. No, should I call you playboy-kun? In your original world, you have many ambiguous relationships with many girls. Of course, you prefer girls of your age, right?"
"Cough... My relationships with them are just friends. Um, more like childhood friends."
Seeing her squint at him with sarcastic words, Akira put on a face as thick as city walls, showing no guilt.
For a relationship to last, honesty is a must.
In the memories he gave her, except for some sensitive matters like his taboo relationship with Ichika and Miku, Akira showed almost all his life experiences to Miyako.
That included his relationships with the girls at school and other girls.
"Ahem. Now that you know what kind of person I am, I'm not the ideal man you think. There are many sides of me that you haven't seen. So, I want to know the future of our relationship. If you want to break up and stay away from me, I won't oppose your decision."
"Anyway, keeping this from you despite living together for so long is wrong. No wonder you feel disappointed; I—"
His words stopped as Miyako's index finger covered his lips.
"That's enough, Akira-kun. You don't need to explain anymore."
Taking her hand away, Miyako stood up from her chair and moved to Akira's side.
Without saying anything, she kissed him regardless of other people's gazes.
*👩❤️💋👨*
Akira's eyes widened in shock, not anticipating her bold move.
As a man, he couldn't let her be in the dominant position. So, he pressed the back of her head, inserted his tongue into her mouth, and passionately kissed Miyako's lips.
After Akira took control, the kiss turned from ordinary to full of passion.
If this were not a restaurant but an apartment, he would have already thrown her onto the bed and started making love like animals in mating season.
Only after Miyako ran out of breath did Akira let her go.
"Hah hah hah..."
Silver threads appeared as their lips separated.
"Hah hah... You're too enthusiastic, Akira-kun."
With heavy breaths, Miyako scolded him, her face blushing red up to her ears.
"Sorry, I got a little carried away."
"That's more than a little."
Rolling her eyes at him, Miyako sat back in her chair.
Regulating her messy breathing, she propped her chin with the back of her hand.
"That's my answer. A sensitive man like you should understand what I did behind my actions."
"Just say it directly... Why do women like to play mystery games? Men can't read minds, okay?" Akira complained in a low voice.
"Are you saying something, playboy-kun?"
"I'm sorry. I didn't say anything."
Akira sincerely apologized.
No need for further explanations; the kiss had already told him Miyako's answer.
If Miyako had genuinely chosen to end their relationship, she would have slapped him and left. But the opposite happened; she kissed him, indicating her feelings hadn't changed.
She still loved him!
As she said before, she had surrendered her heart and body to him. So, this issue didn't impact their relationship much.
"So, when's the time for you to return to your original world? Have you found the Jewel of Four Souls? You should return soon. Your family there must be worried about you."
Miyako brought up a serious topic.
"Tomorrow night. After saying goodbye to Ichika and the others here, I'll go home."
"Is that so... Hey, Akira-kun, will you come back to this world?"
"Of course! How could I leave you! I'm not an irresponsible man."
"Thank goodness. I was afraid this would be a farewell forever."
Getting Akira's confirmation, Miyako's last trace of anxiety disappeared.
"Let's go home then."
"Yes."
After paying the restaurant bill equivalent to four months of a red and white worker's salary, the two of them returned to the apartment.
Knowing they would be parting for a while, Takebayashi was very aggressive in making love with Akira until dawn that night.
