Chapter 51 - Delights here, not missing Shizuku!

Good, good, good.

So you love watching Netorare, do you? You love being the cuckold, do you? You love fantasizing about cuckolding yourself, do you?

You have thoroughly angered me.

Think quickly!

Tsushima Kagami, hurry up and use your invincible 90 Mental Strength to think of a way!

Is there an NTR story that makes the Blondie weep and the Cuckold fall silent?!

"Kagami-kun, are you alright?"

The Sayuri trio watched Tsushima Kagami standing there in a daze, his expression shifting between frowning, deep contemplation, and stifled laughter. They all asked with concern.

Tsushima Kagami was snapped out of his thoughts by their voices. He smiled and looked at the three of them.

"I'm fine. I've finished reading the comments. Let's go back to the Manga Research Club and continue preparing the upcoming manuscripts."

Only after Sayuri and the others confirmed again and again that Tsushima Kagami had truly not suffered any psychological trauma from the cyberbullying did they return to the Manga Research Club classroom together.

...

After school, Tsushima Kagami saw Sayuri and the others off to the subway station. While continuing to ponder what kind of NTR story could trick these "True Minotaurs" into reading it only to emotionally devastate them, he prepared to go to Yukinoshita Shizuku's convenience store to wait for her shift to end.

"Ah!"

Tsushima Kagami, who was lost in thought, had his attention drawn by a startled cry from nearby.

Turning to look, he saw what appeared to be a female primary school student holding various large and small bags—items completely disproportionate to her body size—coming out of a nearby shopping mall. As soon as she stepped out, one of the paper bags tore open, and the fruit inside spilled all over the ground.

Seeing the girl in a frantic state, dropping more fruit just as she picked some up from the ground, Tsushima Kagami walked over.

"I'll go get you another bag."

"Ara, th... thank you."

Hearing that a kind person was offering help, the girl, who was squatting on the ground, hurriedly expressed her thanks while raising her head to look at the Samaritan.

"Eh? Is that Yukinoshita-kun?"

Looking at the 'primary school girl' who had looked up, Tsushima Kagami was also stunned.

"Hayase-san?"

...

On the street, just before the setting sun was about to completely disappear, Tsushima Kagami was carrying two large bags in each hand, accompanied by Hayase Kinue, who was holding the bag of fruit.

"Oh my, oh my. Yukinoshita-kun really was a big help today."

"Otherwise, I would have been so embarrassed on the street."

"Lucky!"

Hayase Kinue spun around happily beside Tsushima Kagami, then reached out to flash a peace sign.

"Did you buy all this to prepare dinner, Hayase-san?"

Looking at the assortment of large and small bags, Tsushima Kagami asked curiously.

"Not exactly."

"Actually, I mainly realized I was out of seasoning when preparing dinner. So, while buying seasoning, I thought, 'since I'm already here,' I might as well buy the ingredients for next time too."

"Who would have thought the bag would suddenly tear today."

Tsushima Kagami nodded with a smile.

"That really is tough work."

Hayase Kinue said with a smile, "Not really. Usually, Utage and Komoe accompany me."

"But sometimes they get very busy too."

Tsushima Kagami recalled the troubled appearances of Douraku Utage and Tsukuyomi Komoe.

"True. They are teachers, after all. It's either endless meetings or endless home visits."

"Isn't that the truth," Hayase Kinue said with a look of concern.

Chatting like this, the two finally arrived in front of a two-story apartment building enclosed by a large courtyard.

After Hayase Kinue opened the door on the first floor, she walked in, put down the things in her hands, and then took the items from Tsushima Kagami and set them aside.

Tsushima Kagami smiled and said, "Then I won't disturb you any longer. I'll head back now."

Just as he was about to turn around, Tsushima Kagami suddenly felt someone grab the corner of his clothes. He turned back to look at Hayase Kinue.

Hayase Kinue looked at Tsushima Kagami with imploring eyes.

"Since you're already here, won't you come in and sit for a bit?"

"Even just for a glass of water."

"Thank you, Hayase-san, but I really shouldn't. I have to go pick up my sister later; she's still at her part-time job."

"Ara, what time does she get off work?"

Hayase Kinue did not let go; instead, she continued to ask.

"Seven-thirty, I suppose."

Just as Tsushima Kagami finished speaking, a rumbling sound came from his stomach.

Hayase Kinue looked at Tsushima Kagami's stomach, then wore an expression that said, 'All according to plan.'

"Isn't there still quite a while before your sister gets off work? Coming in to sit won't take much time."

"Tonight is my specialty, Beef Brisket Curry Rice. The ingredients are all ready, so it will be very quick to make~"

"Or could it be that Yukinoshita-kun actually dislikes eating with an old woman?"

Looking at Hayase Kinue, whose expression changed instantly—tears suddenly hanging in the corners of her eyes, looking as if she would cry at any moment—Tsushima Kagami wavered slightly.

Don't laugh. If you were here, you wouldn't pass this second level either.

"I think Hayase-san is not an old woman, but a little girl!"

Seeing Tsushima Kagami say such a sentence with a serious face, Hayase Kinue immediately broke into a smile through her tears.

Then, she directly pulled Tsushima Kagami through the door.

"Really, what 'little girl.'"

"But I am indeed a bit older than you."

"You might as well just call me Sister Kinue from now on~"

"I shall call you Kagami-kun as well."

"Ah, then how old is Sister Kinue?"

Pulled into the room by Hayase Kinue, Tsushima Kagami looked around the apartment, which was roughly a 1LDK, and asked her.

"Asking a big sister's age is not what a good boy does~"

After getting Tsushima Kagami a brand-new pair of slippers, Hayase Kinue held his hand and led him into the living room, then turned back and wagged her index finger at him.

...

Inside the kitchen, both Tsushima Kagami and Hayase Kinue were wearing aprons. Hayase Kinue was standing on a small stool, constantly stirring the newly added curry blocks in the stew pot with a ladle.

Meanwhile, Tsushima Kagami waited for the right moment, pouring in measured milk at one point, adding pureed apple at another, and finally pouring in the beef brisket chunks that had already been stewed until soft and flavorful.

When the two finally finished making the curry together, Hayase Kinue wiped her forehead with her apron. She then ladled the curry over the rice, which had been plated in a dome shape beforehand. Only then did she jump down from the small stool with satisfaction.

Tsushima Kagami also brought the two bowls of curry rice, the previously prepared fried pork cutlets, and some cold side dishes to the table.

"Itadakimasu."

After speaking, Tsushima Kagami used a spoon to scoop up some rice with curry and soft beef brisket, sending it into his mouth. Just after swallowing, he picked up his chopsticks to grab a piece of the golden, crispy fried pork cutlet that was still hot and took a bite.

Hayase Kinue rested her chin in her hands, watching Tsushima Kagami's seemingly satisfied appearance with a beaming smile, and asked, "Kagami-kun, is it delicious?"

Tsushima Kagami nodded repeatedly.

"It's delicious. Especially this beef brisket; I love beef brisket!"

"It reminds me of the beef brisket my mother made for me when I was a child."

"Sister Kinue is truly the woman among women, the mother among mothers."

After speaking, Tsushima Kagami even gave a thumbs up.

Then his expression froze. He suddenly realized it wasn't very appropriate to say such things when visiting someone's home for the first time.

So he apologized again.

"Sorry, I misspoke."

However, Hayase Kinue's eyes were narrowed into crescent moons from smiling.

"Goodness, I am still single, you know. It's too early for 'mother' or anything like that."

"But thank you for the compliment, Kagami-kun."

"So, I'll punish you by making you wash the dishes with me later."

"Please, by all means, let me wash them."

"My special talent is dishwashing!"

After saying this, Tsushima Kagami picked up another piece of fried pork cutlet and ate it with the curry rice.

...

Inside the convenience store, Yukinoshita Shizuku had just reached the end of her shift. She looked at the clock on the wall in confusion.

Strange. According to his usual routine, even if Kagami went to eat dinner first, he should have been here long ago.

I'm already off work. Did he run into some emergency?

Thinking this, Yukinoshita Shizuku took out the mobile phone Tsushima Kagami had bought her last time from her school bag and dialed his number.

...

At Hayase Kinue's home, Tsushima Kagami was currently washing the tableware. Hayase Kinue waited at the side; every time Tsushima Kagami finished washing a plate and handed it over, she would take it and wipe it dry with a cloth.

The sound of their happy laughter and chatting echoed continuously within the small apartment.

Just then, Tsushima Kagami heard the ringtone of his mobile phone from his school bag.

"Um, Sister Kinue, could you please help me get the phone from my bag?"

"Ara, I'm on it."

After taking the phone from Tsushima Kagami's bag, Hayase Kinue stepped onto her small stool again. She pressed the answer button and held it to the ear of Tsushima Kagami, whose hands were occupied.

"Hello, who is it?"

"Kagami, where are you right now?"

Tsushima Kagami's heart skipped a beat.

Crap.

So happy here, I forgot about Shizuku!
