My Parents Gave Me a House So I Decided to Start a Marriage and My Childhood Friend Ran for It, so We Got Married and I Won in Life!
It’s been a month since my dad told me he was giving up the house.
Finally, the day for my parents to move out has arrived.
The moving company is now moving in and taking away my parents’ belongings.
“Thanks to Takuya staying here, we can keep the gas and water running, which is really helpful.”
“You didn’t really say you’re giving up the house to me for that, did you?”
“Well, well, Takuya. It is better than being asked to move out and live in a different place, isn’t it?”
As I looked at my parents with suspicious eyes, Miyu smiled bitterly next to me.
I hadn’t finished packing a bit, so she came to help me.
I told her that I didn’t have to force her to help me, but she said she wanted to help since she was already a member of the Muramatsu family, so I decided to ask her.
“That may be true, but you know. ……”
“Fufu, Miyu-chan, it’s like that. Keep holding Tatsuya’s reins tightly.”
My mother is making fun of me.
How much does my mother want me to be on Miyu’s back?
Recently, I’ve heard nothing but words like that.
“I will do my best. Right? Takuya?”
“Why are you dumping it on me? ……”
What do you want me to answer?
It’s so hard to answer.
“It’s good that you guys seem to be getting along as well as ever. Takuya, when you come to live with her, you shouldn’t be bothering Miyu all the time.”
“Ugh …… I know.”
The reason I was at a loss for an answer for a moment was because I thought it was a future that could exist for me as well.
A man wants to be relied upon by the woman he loves.
I am no exception.
I want to avoid such a future at all costs.
“Well then, we’re going to go now. You two stay healthy. I’ll come visit you once in a while.”
“Takuya, take care. Miyu chan, take good care of Takuya.”
“Please leave it to me! Please come visit anytime.”
“Have a good trip. Dad, Mom.”
My parents are leaving
It’s not like it’s goodbye for good, and they’ll probably come visit soon anyway.
They got into a cab with a wave of their hands and left.
“There they go. ……”
“Yeah ……”
My parents moved out, which meant the start of our cohabitation.
It was impossible not to be nervous.
The only time I’ve slept in a building together was in elementary school or on a school trip.
“The move-in date is next weekend, right?
“Yes. I’ve already started packing my things.”
Since it’s about Miyu, I’m sure she’s making preparations.
I should learn from her good preparation.
As my mother said, I don’t want to cause Miyu too much trouble.
“If there’s anything I can do to help, please let me know. I’ll do what I can.”
“Fufu, thanks. I’ll be counting on you.”
“Ou. You can count on me as much as you want.”
If Miyu can rely on me, I can lift any heavy load.
Just the words “I can rely on you” are enough to motivate me.
It might not be my turn, though…
“Still…..I couldn’t even imagine living in this house with Miyu until recently.”
“So do I. I can’t believe I get to live with Takuya in this house full of memories…”
Miyu stares at the house, which feels even bigger now that my parents are gone, with eyes full of emotion.
Miyu’s mind is probably filled with memories of visiting this house when she was little.
“Do you remember? We used to play board games together in Takuya’s room.”
“Yeah. I remember I didn’t want to end up as the loser, so I made Miyu stay up late at night with me.”
In the past, I hated losing and was the type of person who would never end a game without losing.
Even though Miyu was annoyed, she still went along with me, and now I feel nostalgic.
“Then I ended up falling asleep and getting scolded a lot.”
“Ahaha! That’s right.”
There were times when we woke up with a blanket wrapped around us and before I knew it, it was morning.
There were times when we only took out one futon and slept on the same one because we were sleepy and didn’t want to move.
“Fufu……… finally laughed “
“Eh……?”
“Your face has been tense the whole time, right?”
When she said that, I realized that I had been wearing a hard expression until just now.
So Miyu was telling me funny nostalgic stories.
“What’s wrong?”
“I was a little nervous because of the prospect of living with…… Miyu.”
I was a little embarrassed to confess, but I told her honestly.
Even if I try to hide it from Miyu, who I have known for a long time, she will find out anyway.
After listening quietly to my confession, Miyu smiled and hugged me.
I was so surprised that I became embarrassed.
“W-What’s wrong with you, ……?”
“I’m also nervous about living with the person I’ve loved for so long, you know? come, can you hear me…?”
I try to concentrate on listening to what Miyu is saying.
Then I felt heart beating strongly.
Our hearts were beating so fast that I couldn’t tell which one was beating.
“It’s true,……, it’s beating fast.”
“Right? We’re both nervous, so Takuya doesn’t have to think too much. Let’s help each other out even after we get used to it. ”
Miyu encouraged me with a gentle smile.
The tension naturally fades away and a smile appears on my face.
I really can’t compete with …… Miyu. ……
“moving company” – hauling?
