Chapter 65: The Dyed and the Dyer
“…The graduation ceremony is coming up soon, huh.”
“Yeah, it is. I’ll miss the seniors that I’m close with.”
My friend responded to my murmuring.
I don’t have that many seniors I’m particularly close to, but I do have some good friends among them, so it’s true that I’m feeling a bit lonely about it.
Now then, today is a day off, but I’m visiting my friend’s house.
While I’m here playing with my friends, I heard that Arisa and Aina invited Kanade and went out to the town. We had plans to go to the town as well before, but we gave up early due to the cold weather and ended up spending the whole day indoors instead.
“Well, I’ll invoke this card right here.”
“Seriously…? Now I can’t move.”
When three high school boys gather, they usually end up playing games. Right now, I’m watching them compete in a card game.
This card game is quite strategic and popular. Well, I’m not really into it, but at my age, I want to try out trendy things.
“…Alright! I’ve collected five cards!”
“Ugh, I lost! Dammit!”
Oh, looks like it’s over.
The friend who lost the game flopped down on the floor as if giving up. It’s frustrating to lose in a closely contested match like that, huh?
“Here you go, everyone, some snacks.”
“Oh, thank you.”
The door to the room opened, and Auntie brought us some snacks.
Whenever we come to play, she always brings us some snacks and drinks. We’ve known each other for quite some time now, so she knows our preferences well and only serves things we like.
“Oh, by the way, the other day, I met Shinjo-san’.”
“…Ah, you mean Sakuna-san?”
“Yeah. It was a coincidence when I went to the shopping district. We hadn’t really talked before, but we got into a conversation about Hayato-kun. She was praising you, saying that you’re such a reliable boy.”
Ah, so there was some connection between Sakuna-san and Auntie. I hadn’t heard it directly from Sakuna-san, so I was a little surprised after hearing this.
“Hmm, I’ve never seen the mother of the beautiful sisters before.”
“What was she like?”
“She’s incredibly beautiful. Great figure, oozing with charm… It’s hard to believe we’re the same age.”
As Auntie said that, for some reason, my two friends stared at me intently. While eating snacks, they asked me something, directing their gaze at me.
“Don’t tell me… you didn’t get involved with that beautiful mother too, did you?”
“What are you talking about?”
Auntie responded, looking exasperated at my friend’s words.
Naturally, they don’t know about Sakuna-san. They only know about Arisa and Aina. That’s why I can only give a vague smile and evade the question. Sorry, Auntie, it’s not like I got involved with her, but Sakuna-san is, well… my girlfriend.
“Well, I did sense that she has a bit of feelings for him beyond just trust… Fufu, you should stop with those foolish imaginations, you know?”
“I know.”
Ugh, this atmosphere is strangely uncomfortable in a way.
Well, it seems neither my friends nor Auntie are considering my relationship with Sakuna-san to that extent, so the conversation ended there. Just as I let out a sigh of relief, my phone vibrated, indicating a message had arrived.
“Sakuna-san…”
To my surprise, it was Sakuna-san.
The message was about whether I would have dinner with my friends today or not. Since I didn’t have any particular plans, I replied that I would head there in the evening.
After that, I had a great time with my friends and left home a little early.
Today, I’m planning to stay overnight at the Shinjo house. It’s like, it would be so convenient if our front doors were connected or something… I’ve been thinking about that lately.
“I’m home~”
I arrived at Shinjo house, but it seems Arisa and Aina haven’t come back yet. It appears that they’re still enjoying their time with Kanade. Sakuna-san, who had left earlier, returned, making the sound of footsteps.
“Welcome back, dear.”
“Yes, I’m home… dear?”
“Ufufu♪”
Sakuna-san laughed in response to my questioning. “Dear”… There was an indescribable excitement in being called that directly by Sakuna-san.
“…It makes me happy.”
“You’ll get used to it eventually, and it won’t be a loss to prepare for the real thing, you know?”
Her gaze, words, and atmosphere, everything about her is gentle. But the captivating pheromones radiating from Sakuna-san constantly trouble me as well. Even though I’m getting used to it, this person’s very existence is inherently seductive.
“Well, Hayato-kun, shall we go to the living room?”
“Okay.”
Sakuna-san said so and took my hand. Even though it’s just walking a short distance, I feel the mature presence as she stands in front of me and leads the way. I tightly embraced Sakuna-san from behind.
“Kyaa!”
“…”
Unlike Arisa and Aina, with this person, I really can’t help but want to depend on her. Just being like this with her brings me a sense of security.
“You’re quite spoiled, Hayato-kun.”
“Well, Sakuna-san has a part in making me like this too.”
“Yes, exactly. I told you that I wanted you to depend on me like this. Just being able to spoil you, I…!”
“…You’re naughty, Sakuna-san.”
“Please don’t say it anymore! My body has already become like that!”
That’s why Sakuna-san’s choice of words is always like that!
After that, I headed to the living room and lay down sideways, placing my head on Sakuna-san’s lap as she sat on the sofa. Although I never mentioned nor did we talk about it, I still naturally ended up in this position, with her giving me a lap pillow.
“Sakuna-san.”
“What is it?”
“There are times when we can spend time like lovers, and there are times when I can depend on you like a mother… Really, the time I spend with Sakuna-san feels luxurious.”
She always fulfills any request, or rather, she adapts to any role… Sakuna-san shows glimpses of what Arisa and Aina have in common. But I’ll say it again, this person has a kindness that envelops everything.
“But it’s also because of you, Hayato-kun.”
“…Me?”
“Yes.”
Peeking out from between her two large bosoms, Sakuna-san said this.
“Your presence is what made me like this. You awakened something deep within my heart. It’s just that… I’ve been dyed by you♪”
“…”
W-why’s she like this!!
“I love you, Sakuna-san!!”
“I love you too~!”
I quickly got up and hugged her tightly.
The comfortable feeling of her ample bosom against my chest, her long and glossy black hair, and the beautifully sculpted face right in front of me… Ah, it seems the goddess is here.
“Oh, right. Hayato-kun, have you heard from the girls?”
“About what?”
“Well, today—”
Just at that moment, the two of them came back.
As I waited with Sakuna-san in the living room, they quickly appeared. However, they were accompanied by a guest.
“We’re back, Mom. And Hayato-kun.”
“We’re back.”
“Oh, sorry to bother you!”
“Huh?”
Huh, why… I felt such emotions enveloping me.
The person the two of them brought was not a stranger to me… It was Kanade.
“Kanade?”
“Yes! Onii-san♪”
She gave me a beautiful smile, but what’s going on?
“Today, Kanade-chan will be staying over at our place.”
“Yes. We have permission from her parents.”
“I’m a bit clumsy, but please take care of me!”
…Ah, I see. That’s what it is.
But “clumsy” feels like a slightly different meaning, doesn’t it?
