I Was Reincarnated as a Creepy Fat Guy, Then Trained Myself Without Sleep. And Then, for Some Reason, the Heroines Start Approaching Me

Itsuki side

I’ve said it before, but the Kanzaki mother and daughter have an uncanny intuition. Frankly, I didn’t think we could keep our relationship with Tamaki-san a secret until high school graduation.

Even so, she noticed way too quickly.

“Yes, we did it.”

I can’t make up random excuses and deceive her. Even with all the knowledge I possess, it’s better to admit it honestly here.

The person in front of me was Kanna’s mother.

As I bow my head, Tamaki-san, sipping her drink through a straw, looks at me with a sharp gaze, sighs, and asks in a pointed manner.

“Do you know how I feel about Kanna?”

“Yes. Kanna is your only precious daughter, and you want her to be happy…”

“Didn’t you say you are building a healthy relationship with my Kanna?”

“Yes, we are.”

“What do you mean by ‘healthy’?”

Tamaki-san, arms crossed, glared at me. That was a scrutinizing gaze, a test. So, I opened my mouth with a serious expression, fearlessly looking into her emerald eyes.

“It’s not just a physical relationship. We… are in a relationship.”

“A relationship!?”

Tamaki-san’s eyes widened, her mouth slightly agape, and her expression froze.

From that reaction, it seemed she had been convinced it was only a physical relationship.

“Heh, yeah, we’re in a relationship.”

She, with a slightly bewildered expression, glanced away to hide her confusion, took another sip of her drink, and then stared at me again before speaking.

“Was it just a game with Marin?”

“!”

Placing her hand on her chin as if she could see through all my thoughts and intentions, she stared at me intensely, leaving me silent as I averted my gaze.

Seeing me like that, Tamaki-san suddenly lifted the corners of her mouth.

What’s with that change!?

“From now on, you’ll be in touch with me every single day, right? Got it?”

“…Yes.”

“You’ll guide me like a gym trainer, right? I don’t want other trainers touching me.”

“…Yes.”

“And, those guys who keep inviting me during work are really annoying. I’ll need you to play the role of my boyfriend. Just occasionally answering the phone is enough.”

“Maybe it’s better to actually get a boyfriend…”

“Itsuki”

“Yes… If it’s okay with someone like me…”

“Also, if you make Kanna sad, I’ll really crush you.”

“Of course!”

The last line was seriously delivered.

Of course, if it came to matters in the bedroom, Tamaki-san would be the one to be crushed. But at this moment, not obeying Tamaki-san’s words felt like a serious threat to my life.

Moreover, Tamaki-san loves Kanna very much. I’m not very knowledgeable about parent-child relationships, but since Kanna is her only family, her feelings are probably warmer than those of other mothers.

So, I have to respect her now.

Without answering verbally, I lowered my gaze in a gesture of reflection, and Tamaki-san had a triumphant look. In her mind, she’s probably mocking, “This brat! You can’t beat me ~ Ohohoho.”

However, Tamaki-san posed a question that far exceeded my expectations.

“Hey.”

“Yes?”

“If you date Kanna, do you think your usual loneliness will disappear?”

“The usual loneliness?”

“When I first saw you, you had that… lonely expression, right?”

“…”

Come to think of it, when I first had a relationship with Tamaki-san, she said something similar.

[You had a lonely look when I saw you.]

A lonely look.

Indeed, what Tamaki-san considers loneliness is unknown to me, but the reason I decided to go out with Kanna was none other than the fact that she was the one who made me feel like I could be with her.

“Kanna said she would accept all of me… Actually, when I’m with her, my heart becomes warm, and the painful memories from the past soften and become bearable. It’s hard to express, but Kanna has given me many things and taught me various things. That’s why I want her to be happy.”

Although there should be plenty of cooler lines, my limited vocabulary is embarrassing.

It hasn’t been much time since I had sex with Kanna, but I’ve realized that her presence has become influential deep within my heart.

Initially, I tried to avoid it as much as possible. However, her kindness in treating everyone without expressing disdain, the way she talks to me with cuteness, sometimes getting angry or laughing, and her resolute determination to move forward without tearing up. Knowing these aspects, I found myself drawn to Kanna.

She was a truly charming girl.

Beyond the compatibility with my blessed body,

She looks at me properly.

And she strongly desires me.

I’m so happy about that…

So, I want to be with Kanna forever.

Because it warms my heart.

Upon hearing my words, Tamaki-san’s cheeks loosened for a moment. After clearing her throat to cover up, she moved her glossy lips.

“I see. I also learn various things from her occasionally. She’s reliable, my proud daughter.”

“Indeed. Thank you very much for giving birth to Kanana.”

“!”

“Hmm?”

Wondering why Tamaki-san didn’t respond to my smiling words, I slightly tilted my head and looked at her.

Then, Tamaki-san blushed, a cherry blossom hue spreading across her cheeks. She averted her gaze from me and muttered softly.

“Really… There’s absolutely no impure intention… despite being a brat…”

“Did you say something?”

“I didn’t say anything.”

“You definitely said something.”

“Prying men are disliked.”

“Women who use that as an excuse to escape are also disliked.”

Didn’t we exchange such conversations that day?

Yeah.

That day was really passionate.

Oops, now is not the time to reminisce about that.

I am Kanna’s boyfriend.

So, it’s okay to probe a bit.

Perhaps reminded of the day we first had sex by our earlier conversation, Tamaki-san seemed frustrated, fidgeting her legs and displaying an unsettled demeanor.

In addition to that, there’s this scent of pheromones.

“Oh, by the way, I’m Kanna’s boyfriend, so let’s refrain from getting intimate anymore.”

“Huh?”

“Isn’t this not normal to say…”

“W-Why are you suddenly talking about that!?”

I (intentionally) contorted my face and said, but Tamaki-san leaned forward, bringing her upper body closer in an assertive manner.

It happened so suddenly that I spilled my drink. Tamaki-san reacted more than I had anticipated.

I composed myself and explained.

“Because, you know, getting involved with her mother in that way…”

However, as if she could see through my shallow thinking, she cut in.

“Hey, Itsuki.”

“Hmm?”

“That part of you really irritates me.”

“What do you mean by ‘that part’?”

“…Well, Itsuki.”

“What is it?”

“You seem to need some educational guidance.”

“Educational guidance?”

“Just come with me for a moment.”

“…”

Love Hotel

“! What the…!”

Come on, Tamaki-san. Didn’t you just mention something about educational guidance earlier?

But it’s probably useless to say that to Tamaki-san, who already seems captivated.

Even though I took plenty of time to shower and get rid of any scent, Tamaki-san, still trembling, didn’t seem to notice.

“I have parents at home, so I’ll go first.”

“…”

“Take care.”

“…(happily) Baka.”

With that, I left the love hotel. I feel like she said something at the end, but it’s probably just Tamaki-san’s nonsensical muttering.

Kondo Residence

“I’m home.”

“Oh, Itsuki, welcome back…”

“You finally came. I’ve been waiting.”

When I returned home, my parents greeted me with apologetic expressions. I felt something was off since this morning, and it seems they’ve finally mustered the courage to tell me something.

“You know, there’s something we want to talk to you about, JyItsukiu. Is it okay?”

Listening to my mom, I nodded, and we sat on the living room sofa. Honestly, I’m a bit, well, extremely anxious.

Did they find out about the steamy activity with Tamaki-san today? Did they find out about my relationship with Kanna? Or perhaps, did Marin come here…

Wait.

Could this be…

Could it be that they have a new addition to the family, like a little brother or sister?

Considering how close my parents have been lately, it’s a plausible scenario.

I swallowed hard and looked at both of them alternately.

Then, my dad spoke with a heavy tone.

“The thing is, your mom and I have been thinking about a long-term overseas trip…”

“A long-term overseas trip?”
