Episode 20 – Her mother is a worrier


The S**ttiest Gyaru in the Class Confessed to Me


I thought we would have a chance to meet someday.

But this is too sudden.

Hmm.

But if she wants to meet me at this point, it must mean she wants to see what kind of person I am before going on the trip.

“How about it? It’s okay if you don’t want to.โ€

Ichika peeks at me with concern.

What should I do?

But, I.

I haven’t kissed Ichika or had sex with her.

And I’m not popular with women, so no other girls come near me.

In other words, I have nothing to hide, which means I’m invincible.

Fufu.

I’ll do it.

โ€œSou. You’re grinning, are you really nervous?โ€

Ichika seems genuinely worried.

โ€œNo, I’m not. No, I’m going to meet her.โ€

โ€œWhy are you grinning? Grinning when you’re going to meet my mom is kinda perverted. Are you targeting her? Sure, my mom is pretty, but.”

No, even if she’s beautiful, it’s not right to do that to someone you’ve never met before.

Since it was dinner time, we decided to meet at a local yakiniku restaurant.

When you meet someone for the first time, isn’t it usually at a coffee shop or something? I don’t know.

I already have a feeling that Ichika’s mom is a free spirit.

The designated yakiniku restaurant is about a 10-minute walk away. I thought I’d ask Ichika about various things.

โ€œIchika, what kind of person is your mom?โ€  

โ€œHmm. Beautiful?โ€  

โ€œLike, what does she like?โ€  

โ€œMen?โ€  

โ€œR-right. Then what does she dislike?โ€  

โ€œCheaters? I feel the same way.โ€  

“Oh, really? Well, that’s normal.โ€  

โ€œYeah. Cheating is off-limits. Even if you forgive them and make up, I don’t think you can ever truly go back to the way things were.โ€

โ€œWould you hate me too?โ€

โ€œDo you have another woman?โ€

โ€œN-no.โ€

For a moment, the image of Ai’s lips came to my mind.

That memory was too dangerous.

โ€œHmm. Well, you’re a safe and reliable guy, right? Cheating would be impossible for Sou too. I’m sorry.โ€

โ€œY-yes…I’m a safe and reliable guy. I’ll keep that in mind.โ€

Hearing it from Ichika was a failure. It just increased my worries for no reason. I’m starting to get scared of meeting Ichika’s mom.

There’s a woman with a little girl in front of the store.

When I approached, she waved at me.

It’s Ichika’s mom.

She’s more beautiful than I expected, she could pass for an actress.

Ichika is peeking at my face.

Ouch

โ€œYou’re staring at my mom. You cheater. Idiot !”

Damn you Ichika.

She kicked me in the butt.

โ€œNo, I was just wondering if Ichika will grow up to be as beautiful as her.โ€

โ€œI’ll be more beautiful than Mom !”

โ€œWhat if, just what if, I cheat on you? What would happen to me?โ€

โ€œCheatign with my mom?โ€

That’s not what I meant, but before I could reply, Ichika pressed on.

Ichika raised her head, opened her eyes wide, and swayed slightly.

โ€œHehe. Hehehe. Even killing you 100 times might not be enough.โ€

This is scary.

I’m seriously going to be killed.

Is this person actually mentally unstable?

Before I knew it, Ichika’s mom was standing in front of us, smiling at us.

โ€œOh my. You two are quite close, aren’t you?โ€

That’s what she said.

โ€œAh, um. I’m Aira Sou, and I’m dating Ichika san!โ€

โ€œAiraโ€ฆ?โ€

Her expression clouded over for a moment, and I felt like she was glaring at me.

Eh. Why?

We’ve never met before, so there’s no reason for her to dislike me.

The fact that she made that face after hearing my last nameโ€ฆ

C-could it be my father?

Did my father do something wrong in the past?

There are very few people with the surname Aira, so if you have one you’re practically related.

As I was feeling nervous, Ichika’s mother smiled again.

โ€œI’m sorry. It’s just that I recognized the surname. My name is Katase Yotsuba. Thank you for taking care of my daughter. Let’s eat first, shall we?โ€

If she recognized the name Aira, it must be it. My father was apparently a love guru in his single days.  

This meeting…is over.  

When we entered the restaurant, it was empty due to it being a weekday. It was an order-buffet-style restaurant.  

โ€œDo you all like barbecue?โ€  

When I asked that, the mother answered.  

โ€œBoys probably like meat, right? Did you mind?โ€  

โ€œNo, I’m really happy.โ€

Ichika’s mom was dressed in business casual attire, and she was stylish and beautiful.

At first, I was a little intimidated, but she seemed like a kind person.

Ichika’s younger sister was also there, and her name was Utako. She was still in kindergarten and very cute.

I wonder if Ichika was like this when she was a child.

Wait, I feel like I’ve seen this child somewhere before.

Feeling someone’s gaze, I looked to the side and saw Ikka. She was staring at me with dull eyes, not blinking.

Scary…

โ€œNo way, Sou. Are you interested in little girls too…?โ€

โ€œI’m not interested ! !”

Then Utako started crying.

“Onii chan, do you hate me?โ€

A little girl’s tears have incredible power.

โ€œNo, that’s not true. Utako chan is cute.โ€

Ichika’s gaze is painful…

โ€œWhat about me? An old lady like me, you think that’s too much?”

That voice belonged to Ichika’s mother, Yotsuba san.

She was smiling at me.

But I could only sense malice in that smile.

โ€œNo, I think you’re just normally beautiful.โ€

โ€œYou can’t see me as a woman, can you?โ€  

Even if I know she’s just teasing, when asked like that, I have no choice but to respond.  

โ€œN-no, I never meant that…โ€  

Seriously, how am I supposed to answer that?  

Ouch.  

A sharp pain shot through my thigh.  

Ichika had pinched my leg hard.  

โ€œSou. You’re the worst.โ€  

Oh well.  

She’s angry now.

I feel like I was really teased by the Katase family.

But Ichika’s family seems to get along well.

Ichika seemed to be troubled before she met me, so I was worried that maybe things weren’t going well at home.

I feel a little relieved now.
