Harem Of The Oshika Clan - H038 Runa and Youko’s Reasons

H038 Runa and Youko’s Reasons

I was shocked to see my childhood friend Youko at Meshi Academy on the first day.

Returning home after that first day, I was even more stunned to find Youko and my sister Runa greeting me in maid outfits.

Both Runa and Youko smiled like kids who’d pulled off a prank.

What’s going on?

“Akira-sama, I’ll take your bag.”

“Akira-sama, here are your slippers.”

“Uh, yeah.”

My confused mind barely processed as I handed my bag to Runa and slipped my feet into the slippers Youko prepared.

“Let’s head to your room.”

“Okay.”

I followed Youko, with Runa carrying my bag behind me. The other maids lined up on both sides, watching us with warm smiles.

Normally, their gazes would embarrass me, but my jumbled head couldn’t feel shame. Sandwiched between Youko and Runa, I returned to my room.

Youko opened the door, stepped in, and stood aside. I entered, followed by Runa, and Youko quietly closed the door.

“Onii-chan, I missed you!”

The moment the door shut, Runa leapt into my arms. Her momentum pushed me back half a step, but I steadied myself and held her firmly.

“Onii-chan, I missed you so much!”

Runa repeated, pressing her lips to mine.

“Runa-chan, that’s not fair. I haven’t even done it yet.”

Youko sidled up, pressing her lips to mine, already claimed by Runa.

Guju, guju, guju.

Both extended their tongues, greedily licking my lips. Feeling so loved made them dearer to me, though only as a sister and childhood friend, not lovers—sorry to them.

After savoring the three-way kiss, they finally pulled away.

“Sorry, Onii-chan, I got carried away with excitement.”

Runa beamed.

“Runa-chan, you need to do your job properly first.”

“Oh, right. Not Onii-chan—Akira-sama, where should I put your bag?”

Youko’s scolding snapped Runa back to maid mode. She’s well-trained, though not perfectly.

“On the desk.”

“Understood.”

Runa placed the bag on the desk.

“Akira-sama, you’ll change, right?”

“Yeah. My loungewear’s in the bedroom.”

“Understood.”

Youko switched to maid mode too, and we went to the bedroom.

They carefully brushed my uniform, hanging the jacket and pressing the trousers. They seemed slightly unpracticed but diligent as maids.

Their white prim headbands were light blue—part-timers. So, the “new part-time maids” Moe-san and Yuuko-san mentioned were Runa and Youko. I’d assumed they’d be clan girls.

I kept my underwear and T-shirt, slipping on a gown. I plan to wear sweats around the mansion, but with a bath later today, this’ll do.

Once changed and settled, I asked for their story.

“Are you both free after this?”

“Yes, we are.”

“Then tell me what’s going on in the living room.”

“Understood.”

In the living room, on the sofa, they dropped their maid personas for sister and friend.

“What are you two doing? I get you’re maids, but why?”

“I want to be near you, Akira. Even as a scholarship student, I need to earn living expenses, so I’m working here as a part-time maid.”

Youko explained.

“I see. Runa?”

“Same here. I want to be near Onii-chan and need to earn money too.”

“But what about middle school? Commuting’s tough if you’re working here.”

“No problem. I enrolled at Meshi Academy too.”

“What??”

Did I hear that right? I did, but—Youko and Runa at Meshi Academy?

Runa grinned like a kid whose prank worked.

“Surprised?”

“…Yeah, totally.”

“Hehe, I kept it secret to surprise you.”

“Dad and Mom know… of course they do. That’s why I never saw your entrance ceremony photos.”

Her uniform would’ve given it away.

“But the tuition’s high, right?”

With Dad’s job change to Roga Information Technologies, his salary might rise, but enough for Meshi Academy’s fees? Wasn’t the transfer in autumn?

“It’s fine. I’m a scholarship student too.”

“You too?”

I knew Runa was smart, unlike me, but I didn’t expect this from an elementary student.

“When did you both take the exams? When did you decide to join Meshi Academy?”

They exchanged glances, giggled, and Youko answered.

“The day after I gave you my virginity.”

The day I came to the Oshika mansion for exam prep?

“I begged Mom to arrange a meeting with the Oshika family, came here, and pleaded with Reiran-san.”

While I was studying in a guest room, they were here too? I had no idea. The mansion’s huge, so it’s not surprising.

“They were hesitant, but Runa-chan and I pushed hard, and they let us take special exams. Mine in March wasn’t too bad, but Runa-chan had it rough.”

“Yeah. As a first-year, I took an entrance exam, not a transfer one. The regular exam date was over, so I had a week to prepare for a special exam. Even passing, I was waitlisted, stressing until someone dropped out.”

Still, scoring high enough for a scholarship guaranteed her spot when a vacancy opened.

“I took the exam the same day as you, Akira, but in a different room, so we didn’t meet.”

Youko was at the academy then? With its vast campus, hiding that was easy.

That explains why, when I returned home after the exam, both Runa and Youko were so busy. I wondered why advancing to second year needed so much prep, but transferring makes sense.

I never imagined they’d follow me.

“So, where are you both living now?”

They’re working here, so probably nearby—maybe the academy dorms? I asked.

“The mansion’s first floor.”

“What?”

Runa’s answer made my eyes widen. They’re living here? Since when?

“The west wing’s first floor has servant quarters. We’re using two rooms there.”

“Since when?”

“We came April 2 and have been training as maids since.”

While I was with multiple women, they were already here.

“Did Dad and Mom come for your entrance ceremony, Runa?”

“Of course.”

I wish I’d seen them. They probably avoided me to keep your and Youko’s enrollment secret. Was that your idea?

It stings, being the only one out of the loop, like a fool.

“Do you both know what’s expected of me as the Oshika head?”

They glanced at each other and nodded slowly.

“Then you get that I can’t settle with either of you. Is that okay?”

They came to be near me, hoping for that chance.

“Yeah, it’s fine. It’s actually convenient.”

Convenient? With me sleeping around?

“You liked someone else, right? Even if it’s some random girl. If you found her and got together, Runa-chan and I would have no chance.”

“But if you’re sleeping with tons of women, not just clan girls, to make heirs, you can still be with me and Youko-chan. If we keep it up, maybe we’ll have your baby someday.”

Youko and Runa spoke with blissful expressions, as if already pregnant. They’re okay with it.

“If you’re fine with it, okay. From now on, not just as sister and friend, but as master and maids, and man and women, let’s get along.”

“Yup!”

“Of course!”

I thought distance would grow, but my bond with Runa and Youko has strengthened. I feel we’ll never be apart.

After Runa and Youko returned to maid duties, I ate lunch with Reiran-san, then bathed. Like my early days here, five maids in thin clothes thoroughly cleaned me.

Then, they dressed me in a haori-hakama outfit, no underwear. Usually, I’d wear some, so why not today? Is the upcoming event that special? The biggest thing seems done already.

Feeling uneasy, I was led to the entrance, where Reiran-san waited. She’ll accompany me to the Oshika shrine but not join the event.

“We’ve been waiting. Let’s go.”

“Yes.”

Unaware of what awaited, I left the mansion and got into the waiting car.
