Chapter 24 – Please Be Gentle With Me

A beautiful woman younger than me, and with quite an age gap at that.

I know that she doesn’t really want to deal with me.

But this is a decision I have made.

I want to continue this relationship as it is.

But I have to tell her before she runs out of love for me by lazing around forever.

“I-I like you, Sumire-san. I don’t have a job yet, I’m not good enough to lead a normal life, and I don’t expect you to like me like this. But I have to tell you that I like you. When we take a bath together or sleep together like we have been doing, I will desire Sumire-san because I am a man too!”

I think I stumbled through it, and it sounded pathetic even to me.

However, I managed to convey my feelings properly.

I don’t know how to confess my feelings since I was young. That’s why in the end, it got so intense that it became incoherent, pathetic, and embarrassing.

This is my determination, if Sumire-san doesn’t accept, I will have to prepare to leave.

The bandage on my left arm is now removed, so there’s no need for us to be together anymore.

I can’t tie her down.

Perhaps I need to leave before I get to meet her family.

I stared at her face.

“…Youichi-san.”

“Yes!”

I swallowed my saliva.

She called my name with a serious look on her face.

“I feel a lot of gratitude towards you, Youichi-san.”

“Yes.”

The words she spoke to me made my chest hurt.

Ah, that’s it. Perhaps I’m forcing a relationship on her out of her gratitude towards me.

“However, I was able to take care of Youichi-san, who was in even more trouble than that.”

“Yes.”

With every word she said, I felt the pain as if my heart was being stabbed.

Indeed, it’s been almost a month.

I’ve been reduced to being a no-good freeloader because I’m always spoiled by Sumire-san.

“Hey, Youichi-san.”

“Yes.”

“I have a request.”

“A request?”

Will she tell me to leave immediately because of the disgusting words I said earlier?

“Yes. Will you let me take care of you, Yoichi-san?”

“Huh?”

“If you let me take care of you, I’ll accept being in a relationship with you.”

“Huh?! Whaaat?!”

I was so surprised by the unexpected answer that I fell off my chair.

My left arm still hurts when I touch it, but I was so surprised that I forgot about the pain.

“Yes. I’m very happy to accept. Since I’ve been living with Youichi-san, I’ve come to like him a lot more.”

“Wait, wait, wait! I’m just a boring old man, you know?”

“I think he’s really wonderful.”

“I’m unemployed, I don’t have a home, I can’t use a smartphone, I can’t cook.”

“But I’ve been preparing everything, right? Besides, I do it because it’s fun to cook for someone else.”

“My job is still uncertain and I don’t know what will happen next.”

“I’ve seen Youichi-san’s talent. I’m sure he’ll become popular. I believe in you, Youichi-san. But even if you don’t become popular, I’ll support you. I want to take care of you for the rest of my life.”

I stood up and said negative things about myself with all my might.

Despite that, Sumire-san accepted everything about me.

“I’m not just a boring old man, but I’m also a pervert.”

“Fufu, I don’t have any experience with that, so Youichi-san, please lead me. But I don’t like it if you’re too forceful or scary. Please be gentle with me.”

As I stood up, Sumire looked up at me with a mischievous look in her eyes, which was so bewitching and overwhelming that I couldn’t believe she had no experience.

I picked up the fallen chair and sat back down.

“……”

“Is it over now? Should I list all the good things about you, Youichi-san?”

“P-please stop. I’m so embarrassed that I’m about to die. And even if I get praised and affirmed so much, I don’t have any words left to say. It’s just…”

“Just?”

“Thank you. I’m really happy.”

“Fufu, I didn’t expect to be confessed to by Youichi-san, so I’m happy too.”

“I will be in your care then. I love you, Sumire-san.”

“Yes. I will be in your care too. I love you, Youichi-san.”

The two of us looked at each other and laughed.

I can’t believe that such an old man can date a beautiful woman 12 years younger! 　

Is this a dream? When I realized that it was reality, I took another deep breath and swallowed my saliva.
