Chapter 220: [Goodbye Kiss]

“Iroha-chan, help me~!”

“Mai.”

“Iroha-chan…!”

“Don’t dogs using human language bother you?”

“Whaaat!?”

Playing along with kids is also our job as adults.

Well, in my case, I can understand whether it’s a dog or not.

“Kuun! Kuun!”

“….Ah. Good boy, good boy.”

“”!?!?!?”

I pat Mai’s head as he whines. I’m just treating him like a dog as planned, but for some reason, Maigets is excited.

“Kyuuun, purr purr~. Ehehe~. Mai maybe could become Iroha-chan’s dog.”

Mai says quietly, and I’m astonished, “Is that okay with you?”

Then, embarrassed Ah-nee pinches the hem of my clothes and shyly speaks.

“Da-Darling…”

“Uh, um… Yes, Honey.”

Unconsciously, we stare at each other.

I also feel embarrassed and quickly avert my gaze.

Damn it. What is this? Even though she’s that rough Ah-nee!

>

“Um, is this okay?”

With toy cooking utensils in hand, Ah-nee pretends to cook.

It’s good acting, really.

I once tasted Ah-nee’s handmade chocolate on Valentine’s Day, and it was hell.

If I become her husband, it will surely be tough every day.

“N-no, no.”

Since a while ago, my thoughts have clearly been drifting in a strange direction.

Thanks to Ah-nee’s weirdness, I’m losing my composure too.

“Dinner’s ready~. Here, Darling. Aah~”

“A-ah~”

“W-wan~!? Woof~!”

Desperately barking, Mai tries to disturb us.

But it’s our daughter’s request, so I can’t help it.

Moreover, this is just acting.

Just acting, that’s all.

Finally, I can be released.

Just when I thought so, our daughter dropped a bombshell.

>

“W-what’s wrong, Iroha-chan… Darling? I heard something about a kiss.”

“Eh, ah, y-you see…”

“W-wan~~~!?”

Hearing “kiss,” even Mai panics.

Why is this happening!?

>

Pushed by our daughter, I face my Ah-nee, feeling her encouragement on my back.

Ah-nee’s face is also beet red, and she’s flustered.

“What should I do… ugh, seriously!”

I scratch my head vigorously and confront Ah-nee head-on.

I’m getting irritated in a full circle.

Why do I have to allocate so much brainpower to something other than being a VTuber?

This is just playing house; it’s odd to be troubled by it.

“Ah-nee, don’t move.”

“Hyahyai…nggh!?”

I grabbed Ah-nee by the collar and pulled her down.

Perhaps because it was a surprise attack on her, she easily

Her face approaches…

— Chutsu.

“Gyawaaah~!?”

Mai’s scream resonates in the American sky.

After finishing my business with Ah-nee, I push her away with a thud.

“W-wait…!?”

Stepping on the plate, she collapses from her knees, holding her face with a deep red blush.

Wiping my mouth, I say to my daughter,

With my daughter’s approval, I leave the scene.

Exiting the playhouse, I return to the table where the parents are.

>

>

>

>

Saying that, I make a kissing sound with my lips.

Come to think of it, since it’s just playacting, there was no need to seriously kiss.

So, what I did earlier was just mimicking a kiss near Ah-nee’s face.

Well, from the perspective of those around us—especially Mine, who was crouching and pretending to be a dog—I don’t know how it looked.

Angu Ogu starts talking about the barbecue.

This girl, completely unaware of our struggles, is immersed in the meat.

>

I send her a resentful look and take a sip of the juice I was drinking.

By the way, come to think of it, Papa-san was drinking the same thing.

>

>

>

Drinking alcohol while enjoying cherry blossoms or on the beach is unique to Japan.

Or so I thought, but Papa-san denied it with a “no.”

The wife, who was preparing side dishes at another table, appears with a large plate.

Ignoring our gazes, they reconcile with a kiss.

Watching this, their daughter must have grown up.

No wonder. I nodded in understanding.
