He went to the door and opened it.
In front of the door was an extremely attractive woman. She had long silky black hair that reached to her waist and she had a high ponytail. Her eyes were perfectly black with light shades of blue. They were the same as him.
She was holding two bags and from the way they smelled, it had an extremely good dinner.
"Welcome home Mom. Here, let me hold this." then Izumi took her two bags.
"I am back Sweety." said her Mom and gave him a hug while he took the bags.
Both of them entered the house and Izumi went to keep the bags in the kitchen while Iori (his Mom) went to the Sofa and lay down.
He came back with a glass of water while he had a cold drink for himself. He knew that she prepared a glass after coming back.
"Here have this, and I will prepare the bath and then after the bath, we will eat dinner and have a party," Izumi said as he handed her the glass of water and drank his drink. Even though he lived alone most days, Iori still came to his house every Sunday and he had to prepare for her baths.
"Hmm, Sweety! I am tired from the meetings I had to do today and a bath might help me relax a little."
"Mmm! It will be good to relax, just take care and don't sleep in the bath," said Izumi with a concerned voice as it had already happened in past and then happened an embarrassing moment for him.
"Oh Sweety, don't worry about that. It was a one-time thing and I am not overtired today. After all, I still have to celebrate my son's admission to TMANHS." said Iori in a jolly manner.
Seeing her like this, Izumi sighed and went to prepare the bath.
While Iori was taking bath, Izumi decided to take care of setting the dishes and warm them up, if necessary.
Raphael had been joking with him seeing how concerned he was about Iori and how she also wanted him to spoil her.
Izumi didn't reply to it as there were some matters he wasn't ready to face and then changed his thoughts by setting the dishes on the table.
He went to his room and changed back into his Nightsuit as he saw that Iori had brought a mildly alcoholic drink which wouldn't really get them drunk but they would surely sleep on the sofa.
He had thought of removing it but then let her do whatever she wanted to.
After the dinner was done, Iori brought the drink and 'forced' him to drink with her. According to her, it was apparently Son and Mother bonding she had heard about and he didn't know where she had heard about this weird thing.
And just as he had expected, only after two glasses, Iori started sleeping and he had to bring her back to her room. He took her up in a Princess Carry and then brought her to her bedroom.
He lied her down and then covered her with the quilt. Looking at her face, he gave her a forehead kiss and then left the room.
After he had left the room, Iori who had been sleeping opened her eyes and then touched her forehead. She let out a bright smile and then closed her eyes and started sleeping with a smile on his face.
Izumi who hadn't really drunk much cleaned the hall and did the dishes. He then left to his room and started sleeping.
Well, he didn't know that he would get to sleep today.
As soon as he slept, he woke up in a strange space.
"Is this my mindscape? It looks pretty good."
The place where he was was an open space with grasses everywhere while a 'sun' was shining brightly in the sky and there were no clouds in the sky. As soon as he started walking, he disappeared from his place and then reappeared in his 'room'. Well, it was a replica of his room, and on his seat was a sitting who according to him was a mixture of Gabriel and Himejima Akeno from DxD world. She had black hair like Akeno, an innocent body like that of Gabriel and her face was a mixture of them with 'Ara~Ara' 'written' on her face.
She looked at him while he was looking at her and then both of them lost themselves in each other's eyes.
For a few minutes, both of them kept on looking at each other and when Izumi came back to his senses, he blushed slightly and turned his head sideways while Raphael let out her 'Fufufufu' laugh.
"Let's formally introduce ourselves as it is our first meeting. My name is Miyamura Izumi and I am your 'Brother'."
"Ara~Ara! Yes, let's do that. I am Miyamura Raphael and you can call me Raph Nee, Nee San, or Even Onee Chan. I am your big Sister. Fufufu."
Izumi deadpanned at her introduction and how she was always trying to get him to call her Onee Chan.
As he was about to talk, he found himself immersed in her bosom as she hugged him and now was talking to herself.
Even though he felt good at first, now he had started to feel stuffy and it seemed Raph took notice of it and removed his face from her bosom but instead put his head on her lap.
"We won't be talking today as I will teach you later and then we can meet here anytime. You are tired today and need rest."
They both disappeared from the place and appeared on the bed. He still had his face on her lap and he was feeling so soft then he started to get sleepy as Raph was nestling her fingers in his hair and humming a soft tune. She had a smile on her face and Izumi also slept with a smile as he had already and finally accepted everything and anything that will happen to happen and he would judge by himself if it was good or not.
