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!
In the morning, Miyu wakes me up as usual to go to work.
I asked her to kiss me good-bye, and she did so with a shy blush on her face, so I was fully motivated.
As I sat at my desk getting ready for work, Keita spoke to me.
“Good morning Takuya. You seem to be in a good mood even though it’s the first day of Golden Week.”
“Keita, good morning. Well, I’m certainly in a good mood.”
“That’s more important than anything. You’ve been flirting with your beautiful wife all weekend long, haven’t you?”
“I don’t deny it.”
“Geh! You look so happy. Why don’t you tell me about it at lunchtime?”
Keita laughed and patted me on the back as he walked away.
I chuckled and went back to getting ready again.
And so it is almost lunchtime when I have completed my morning tasks.
I was facing the computer screen when I felt a hand on my shoulder.
I turn around and see it is Keita.
“Takuya, the boss wants to see you.”
“The director? Okay, I’ll be right there.”
So I stopped working and stood up.
Then, I went to the desk of the director.
“Oh, Muramatsu. I’m sorry you had to come all the way down here.”
“No, it’s all right.”
I was rarely summoned by the director.
So the fact that I was summoned to his desk meant that something was going on.
I waited for the director to speak, feeling a little defensive inside.
“The reason I called you here is because I want you to go on a business trip.”
“business trip……?”
“Yes, and…..”
“Me! Muramatsu-san!”
When I turned around I saw Takanashi Nao standing there, a junior colleague of mine who I served as an educator.
The company’s idol is popular for her bright and friendly personality and charming smile.
“I wanted you two to go on a business trip. I’m sorry to rush you, but you can go tomorrow. I’ve already booked the bullet train tickets and accommodations.”
The director handed me the tickets.
That seemed to be the end of the conversation, and we disbanded.
Although it was the end of the conversation, we immediately went on a lunch break.
I spread my lunch with Keita in the break area.
“I haven’t been on a business trip …… in a long time.”
“Me neither. I haven’t been on a business trip since I got married.”
“If you ask me, I guess so.”
When I think about it, it’s the first time since we got married that I’ve been away from Miyu for so many days.
I’ll have to tell her right away tonight. ……
◇◆◇
“So I’m going on a business trip.”
I tell her about my business trip as we are drinking after-dinner tea after tucking into Miyu’s homemade dinner after working overtime, which I never expected.
Today’s dinner was also very tasty.
“I see. …… How long?”
“Three days and two nights. It may be longer or shorter depending on the progress, but that’s the plan for now.”
I want to finish the project as soon as possible and go home.
But if a mistake is made because of it, it’s not worth it and I can’t say anything about it.
“Okay, I understand. Do your best.”
“Yeah. I’ll buy you some souvenirs.”
I’ll get some souvenirs and stuff.
I’ll do some research and then go to bed.
“your junior, Takanashi-san? Are you good friends?”
“Well. I think we get along well.”
“Is Keita-san the best friend of yours?”
“Yes, that’s true. But among the female employees, Takanashi is probably the best friend.”
When I say that, Miyu suddenly freezes.
Huh? Did I say something strange?
“Is Takanashi-san a …… woman?”
“Eh? Ah, yeah. Yes, tough”
Miyu gets up from her desk with the cup she was holding and walks over to me.
Then she put her arms around my neck and hugged me gently.
“…I feel anxious and lonely.”
“The only one I like is Miyu, and she doesn’t have those feelings for me either. So don’t worry.”
I hugged Miyu back.
I can feel the warmth and feel relieved.
“Okay ……. But I’m still lonely, so I hope you’ll spoil me today. ……”
“Okay. Then let’s go to the sofa.”
I sat down on the sofa and let Miyu sit on my lap.
Then I hugged her a little tighter.
“When Takuya hugs me, I feel very safe. ……”
“That’s true. I also feel very relieved when I can feel Miyu’s body temperature.”
“Fufu, that’s good. But I like kissing just as much, you know?”
Miyu turns around and smiles like a mischievous child.
I smiled bitterly and kissed Miyu on the lips.
“How’s it going?”
“Yeah…I still like kissing …… too.”
“I’m glad to hear that.”
It seems that it’s right
She had a satisfied smile on her face.
After that, I hugged Miyu for about 10 minutes.
Miyu begins to move fidgetily.
“I think it’s time to go to bed. It’s early tomorrow, right?”
“I guess so. I’ll miss you, but let’s go to bed.”
I stood up and Miyu kissed me on the cheek.
“Thank you for pampering me. Come on, let’s go brush our teeths.”
With that, Miyu disappears into the bathroom.
I feel the warmth of her disappearing cheek as I head for the bathroom.
That day, we fell asleep holding hands and checking each other’s warmth.
