The Real Childhood Friend and Future Husband
“I thought for sure you had amnesia. Because you do, don’t you? You and I loved each other so much and even promised to marry each other… How is it possible that you forgot about me and dated another woman? So I’ve been looking into it for a long time, thinking there must be a reason for this, right?”
Kuon rapidly rambled on.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and she looked straight at me as he continued to speak, and I felt a slight twinge of fear.
Amnesia? Promise of marriage ……?
I have no idea what she is talking about.
“No, um…”
“But surely, we have changed a lot in appearance over the past ten years. It’s no wonder you didn’t recognize me right away, or…….”
“Yeah, um. ….sorry?”
For now, I’ll apologize since she seems to have convinced me of something.
In times like this, you must apologize.
I could say what I want to say after she has calmed down.
“No, it’s okay. It’s okay if you remember. Oh, but don’t cheat on me again, okay? I’m sure you know because you’ve experienced it, and it’s very painful…”
“….Cheat?”
She said it quietly in a cold voice, nodding with a powerless expression.
I don’t remember cheating at all. Did I do something when I was a kid…..?
“It was with a woman called Ai or something like that. I understand that she was just filling in for the time I had been away from you, but it was still really painful when I first saw her…”
“Eh, no we weren’t dating at the time, were we…..?”
It’s not like we’re still dating…….
Hearing my words, Kuon’s expression instantly became cloudy.
“We’re married to each other, you know? Don’t you even remember that?”
“Sorry, I honestly don’t remember any of it…”
“I think you have amnesia after all…….? Oh, well, that’s fine. What’s important is what’s going to happen now.”
Then Kuon slapped her own cheek.
Perhaps that’s why she switched, her expression seems to have returned to normal.
I mean, I don’t remember anything about the marriage.
“But, I’m a little relieved.”
“Huh? About what?”
“If you don’t remember the marriage, that means you didn’t mean to cheat on me, right?”
“Well, yeah…”
“I’m so glad to know you’re not the kind of person who would cheat on me.”
With that said, Kuon drew closer, in front of me.
As I thought, this girl is tremendously beautiful….
“If you betray me, you’ll never get away with it.”
“Don’t you dare cheat on me, understand?”
“I-I got it….”
Our relationship is temporary, right? No way I could say that.
I felt an intense and intimidating expression from her.
But such an expression is cute too…
“By the way, like I said before, this house looks really familiar to me……”
“Of course. I built the same house we used to live in together.”
“…..what?”
Built?
Built a house??
What do you mean???
“It’s always been my dream to live in that house with you again.”
“So you built a house? Then you moved here, too?”
“Yes, to see you.”
In the nostalgic wooden living room, Kuon laughed and nodded happily.
If I looked closely, I could see that all the appliances in the room were kind of old.
No, it looks like new, but the model is old ……
Yeah, just about a decade old……
“Did you win the lottery or something ……?”
“I’m an author.”
“…..you’re parents?”
“I am.”
What….
Aren’t we in the second year of high school?
“Up-and-coming romance novelist Shion Matsuo, don’t you know?”
“Oh, I think I might have heard something about that.”
I think there was some talk about a high school student writing a romantic novel filled with tremendous emotion.
“I couldn’t stop thinking about you, so I wrote a novel about it, and it sold better than I expected.”
“Does that mean I’m the model?”
“Yeah, so you can think of it as a house that was built with half of your money, okay?”
“That doesn’t sound quite right ……”
And it’s Kuon who wrote it.
Or rather, it’s enough to be a hot topic on the internet.
Damn, that’s a little scary when you think about it.
Well, I guess it’s a bit strange to be building the same house as before and being mistaken for a fiancée, but….
“Anyway, that’s how it is, so this love nest is a home just for you and me. You don’t have to worry about it.”
“Where are your parents?”
“They are usually at their house.”
“I’m the only one who moved here.”
What a laissez-faire house.
“That’s why I have understanding parents with sufficient income.”
“I’m jealous.”
Well, mine are also laissez-faire in a way, but….
“This means that….”
While saying this, Kuon hugged me and brought her face close to my ear.
Two “somethings” that are not small were pressed against my chest, and my body naturally stiffened.
“It’s okay to have kids, is what this means.”
The words she whispered in my ear sounded so sweet that they melted my reason.
