Stealing Spree

Chapter 706 - Morning Walk

Morning arrived and I spent at least the whole chunk of it with Yae and Akane. We worked out in the mini-gym, did my homeworks that I hadn’t done yet due to how busy I was. Then after our breakfast which Akane and Yae made, we walked around our neighborhood as a change of pace.

Ah. We also brought Minoru with us. It’s to at least make it easy for Miwa-nee to do the household chores without being disturbed. I actually thought of helping her for a while but she just pushed me away and told me to look after our little one, her face flushed red and despite her current age, she appeared extremely bashful and adorable. Upon seeing that, I failed to stop myself from picking her up to shower her with my affection.

Anyway, along with the two girls and our boy, we went to the playground for Minoru and even to the nicer places in our neighborhood. There’s not a lot of them with a scenic view but walking along our silent neighborhood somehow calmed us down. Due to the lack of other people, Akane and Yae would alternate with sticking to my side, treating our walk as a stroll that we didn’t often get.

Once Minoru got tired from all the walking, I led them to Shio’s nearby apartment... Naturally, there’s the hurdle of passing by the old lady landlord that might suspect my relationship with the girls. So before entering, we already straightened a made-up story. I introduced the two girls as Shio’s friend while Minoru, my younger brother.

It sounded weird but with Shio also appearing at the gate to welcome her husband back, we made it past the old lady’s probing eyes.

Once we reached the apartment, Akane and Yae with Minoru in tow began exploring the room, leaving me behind with Shio that had hastily thrown in an oversized white shirt. She’s also sporting a bed hair which meant she had just woken up.

While the others had their attention elsewhere, I drew close to Shio and embraced her. At this point, it’s already natural for us to be this intimate. She’s not freezing anymore. Furthermore, Shio herself pressed her lips on mine before pulling me to her sofa where we could continue coddling each other. Shio sat down at the space between my legs and had me enclose my hand to her navel while she reached out her hand to my nape. She then leaned back on me with her head slightly raised.

We stayed like that for at most five minutes. At times I would lower my head to kiss her but for the most part, we just stayed in that position. Well, the TV was on and we’re watching the early news broadcast.

Akane, Yae and Minoru were at the veranda, staring at the view that could be seen from it.

Obviously, they chose not to disturb our little moment.

A while later, Shio’s stomach rumbled. Even without the sound, I still felt the vibration due to my hands settling inside her oversized shirt, feeling up her warm, smooth skin. And that reminded me of what I thought of doing here.

“Shio, do you mind me using your kitchen?”

“’Our kitchen’, idiot Ruru.” She corrected while pouting. “Will you cook for me?”𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

“Mhm... You can’t deny that your stomach rumbled. I felt it. Besides, these past few days, you’re refraining from eating dinner with us. I’m worried you’re not eating well.”

She’s clearly avoiding meeting my parents. Those two are now regular visitors after all. Uh. Calling them visitors might be wrong, it’s still their house.

Anyway, there’s no reason to point that out to Shio. We’re still going to be together in the future so, in one way or another, she’d pass that hurdle.

“You... What do you think of me? I’m a proper housewife. I... I can take care of myself.” Shio was appalled. Disregarding the other parts of my sentence, she probably thought I saw her as a no-good wife whose only prominent trait was being beautiful. Or that’s how my words implied when she processed it.

But truthfully, what I meant is different... Being a teacher is quite a stressful job. It didn’t only consist of holding classes and teaching students. Just glancing at the state of the faculty room, most teachers were always busy with different paperworks that was tied to their job.

More often, she’d have no time to cook a proper meal. That’s why... I thought of taking the role of her househusband this time.

Although we’re not alone and I also couldn’t stay long with her because of my appointments for the day, taking care of her first meal of the day was the thing I came up with.

“Yes, you are. But aren’t you busy? Let me serve you this time.” I lifted my hand to her chin and pinched it lightly. On top of that, I put on a smile. Whether it was charming or not, I had no idea.

Either way, Shio took her time to answer and when she did, it was accompanied with her grumble. “Alright, cook for me, Ruru... Why werenʼt you born in the same year as me? That way, I can have you all to myself.”

“Well, isn’t this better? I also got to satisfy your fantasy.”

Being reminded of that particular hobby of hers, Shio’s shoulders jumped. Her eyes then narrowed into a threatening glare as her commanding side resurfaced. “Ruru, I believe we talked about forgetting about that.”

“Did we? How can I forget it? It’s basically the reason why we’re together now... Moreover, I accept your hobby. I won’t tell you to stop liking those kinds of works. I mean, if you want me to, I’ll read it as well.”

I’m also looking forward to when she’s going to put on those costumes that I saw in her Hobby Room... But let’s not tell her that for now. She might shelve those if I did.

“Anyway, wait for me here. You at least have some ingredients in the fridge, right? I’ll cook something for you.”

“... Stop making me fall for you at every turn, you shameless student.”

Before I stood up, Shio pulled my head down and kissed me passionately, pouring in the overflowing emotions she had at the moment. I accepted all of that, her luscious lips along with her playful tongue were always a treat I wouldn’t get tired of.

“Correction, ‘shameless husband’.” I bit her lower lip lightly before escaping to the kitchen.

When I looked back, Shio turtled up on the sofa while covering her flustered expression.

My teacher, who is also my girlfriend, is unbearably adorable…

I pulled out my phone and snapped a picture of her before doing what I set out to do. To cook a breakfast that will make her fall for me further.

Around thirty minutes later, Shio sent us home via her car. Since my parents weren’t there yet, she thought of catching up to Miwa-nee.

I then left the house again to shop with Eimi. However, when I reached their house to pick up my girlfriend, her ‘tiny’ older cousin, Nikaido Anzu, tagged along with us.

As for her reason, she’s bored.
