Episode 55 – My Girlfriend’s Room

I waited in the studio for Iori to change into her loungewear.

A home with a studio…..I’m so jealous.

The Kubota family environment is blessed by music.

The kind of family who feels pressured if they can’t produce results because they’re too blessed.

But neither Gaku san nor Kaori san seem to be forcing music to Iori.

Music is a part of their family communication. That’s how it seemed.

I’m so jealous…….

I said it twice because it’s important.

“Sorry to keep you waiting, Naru.”

She wore a camisole, a cardigan, and hot pants underneath. It’s an outfit that makes my heart boil.

“What are you looking at…..you’re making me embarrassed…”

“Ah…..I’m sorry, it’s just…..you’re cute.”

“Jeez !”

We both blushed.

Then Iori said [Thank you] in a small voice. I became the kind of protagonist who loss hi hearing here.

In the living room, as expected, I was made fun of by the two of them. 

If you go upstairs in the living room and turn right, you’ll find Iori’s room.

What kind of room is this?

Could we get closer here?

Perhaps a kiss….at least….

My heart was bursting with expectation.

–Iori’s room was very simple and full of minimalism.

A bed, a desk, a wooden table. There’s an acoustic guitar hanging on the wall.

It looks like a room for models.

And Iori’s scent…..it smells good.

“Sit down properly.”

“Y…yes.”

I sat down as she told me.

There is no shortage of topics to talk about today. About the session, about the cheating suspicion, and about the teacher.

And the marriage proposal earlier……

But here, as expected, I start talking about the marriage.

Even if we were talking about something else, I’m sure this would be on my mind and I’d be distracted.

“Iori, um…… about the marriage intention…”

“……Yeah.”

“If you don’t mind, Iori….”

That’s not it…..I have to tell her how I feel.

“No, I’m thinking about dating you with the intention of getting married, Iori. I’m still in high school, and I don’t know what kind of adult I’ll become……”

It might be hard, but that’s where we’re going.

“Naru……, aren’t you taking it too far just because Papa told you to?”

“I’m not, it’s still too early, but I will make Iori…..um.”

“What, say it clearly.”

“I….love you. I love you more than anyone.”

“Thank you.”

I received a big smile. It’s so cute.

“So, you know,…… it’s natural that I want to get married.”

“Naru……”

Nice atmosphere.

With this…..I can kiss her !

“Iori….”

I gathered up my courage to kiss Iori.

“It’s okay…..”

“Iori, Naru kun, what do you want for dinner !”

kaori san entered without knocking.

“Oh….. sorry ! I didn’t mean to intrude !”

Iori and I fixed the situation, but Kaori san was already gone.

After that, we felt embarrassed, and we just fidgeted around and eventually gave up on the kiss.
