Chapter 74 – Koyama Erika Is Confined

(T/N: Good news for fans of this novel, author has started updating again, so look forward to more updates~)

[Koyama Erika’s POV]

To me, Saionji Takeru is, to put it simply, a very troublesome person.

He’s my fiance who suddenly appeared. That alone is a confusing situation, but his attitude bothers me deeply.

“I’ll give everything that Erika-san wants. I’m full of talent, so nothing is impossible. I’m an elite, and I’m the only one who can satisfy Erika-san.”

“Huh…”

Takeru-san was the first man outside of my immediate family that I came to have close contact with.

But since childhood, I’ve been restricted by my mother from interacting with people, especially of the opposite sex. For me, extensive conversation equates to deep interaction.

Takeru-san might be in a similar position, but I couldn’t have a good impression of a fiancé decided without my consent.

Even so, the other person is the son of Dad’s client. My Dad strictly instructed me to keep him pleased. All I could do was smile and nod along.

“Erika-san… What a beautiful smile you have. You shouldn’t show that kind of expression to any man other than me. You’ll be targeted by beasts who only think of bad things.”

“Y-yes…”

I smiled and nodded. The smile my parents had instilled in me came naturally.

I shouldn’t want my life to be decided arbitrarily, but my body did what I was told. I ended up charming him to make him like me. I felt like a robot, moving without regard to my feelings.

It’s all empty exchange. Takeru-san never listened to me, he just continued to give me presents and bragging, mistakenly believing they make me happy.

Having attended all-girls schools from middle to high school, even someone like him became the epitome of men to me. Considering my Dad’s influence, it’s perhaps inevitable that I have a twisted view of men.

——That’s why Akio-kun, who doesn’t try to confine me, feels so refreshing, and why I find myself drawn to him.

He was rough but sensitive, and even though he didn’t seem interested in me, he was considerate of me.

The boy named Goda Akio is mysterious. He doesn’t give off the air of a younger guy, but he relies on me and lets me rely on him.

Maybe that’s why I’m infatuated with this big, younger guy. …I guess this is just my excuse for falling in love with a high school boy.

“I’m older, so I have to do my best.”

I can’t just keep asking for help. For the first time, I realized that I’m the Onee-san here.

Akio-kun gave me the courage to stand up for myself. I can’t just succumb to the fate I’ve been given forever. If my future is decided by my parents’ whims and I don’t even protest, I’ll never be able to voice my desires.

In order to stay by Akio-kun’s side, I decided to face my parents head on.

◇　◇　◇

“Erika… What… Do you know what you’ve done?!!”

When I got home, I immediately talked to my parents. I talked about what Saionji Takeru did to us, about the evidence. I even went so far as to say that I wanted to break off our engagement.

“This shouldn’t be allowed!! If only you had listened to what Takeru-kun said… What should I do… How can I explain this to the Saionjis…”

“There’s no need to make excuses. I’m fine with cutting ties with Takeru-san. That’s all I want.”

“There’s no way it’s going to be that simple! Because of your unnecessary actions, I… Damn it, where did we go wrong in raising you?! You weren’t like this! You never went against my words in the past!”

Dad scratched his head. I kept staring at Dad with a blank expression.

It seems like Mom couldn’t stand seeing Dad like that. She slammed the table and screamed.

“Go wrong in raising her!? It’s not my fault! It’s because you didn’t properly pay attention to Erika. I made her do plenty of extracurricular activities. I fed her good food, introduced her to good people, and gave her good experiences. If you think the upbringing is wrong, it’s your fault for neglecting parenting while being absorbed in work!!”

“What did you say?! Who do you think has been providing for you?! Your comfortable life is all thanks to the money I’ve earned!!”

…There they go.

My parents started screaming at each other. These voices are very unpleasant and irritate my heart.

Some say parents argue for the sake of their children, but I couldn’t see it that way. It’s all just a blaming game. The premise was that I was a failure.

They want a child who does everything the parents say. I don’t mind going in the wrong direction if it’s the right path for me.

I’m not a child anymore. I’ll decide my own path. It’s scary to walk alone, but I feel confident that I’ll be okay because I have people who support me.

“Dad, Mom. Please stop this pointless fight.”

“Erika?”

“Pointless?! For whose sake…”

“It’s too much to intervene in my life. I feel grateful for the upbringing I received, but if you’re going to trample on my feelings any further, then it doesn’t matter if you’re my parents. I’ll cut ties with you.”

“What…!?”

Both my parents were speechless.

“W-what are you saying?! You can’t do something like that!”

“That’s right! Cool your head, Erika. Is something wrong?”

Needless to say, my head cooled down as I watched my parents scream at each other.

“I’m not your tool. If children are supposed to obey their parents, then I have no choice but to sever ties with you. I’ll take responsibility for my own life. Is that really so strange? ”

“Nonsense…”

“Either way, if you can’t accept my perspective, I’ll have to involve the police… Is that okay?”

When I operated my smartphone, my Dad let out a panicked voice.

“W-wait! If you do that, the Saionjis will hold a grudge against us!”

Dad cursed, “Damnit!” and then fell silent for a while. I’ll give him some time to think about it.

A tense silence dominated the room for a while. As if to break the atmosphere, a ringtone rang from Dad’s smartphone.

“Damn it! Who is it at a time like this?!”

Dad looked at his smartphone screen and his face turned pale. Perhaps Saionji-san, who heard the story from Takeru-san, had contacted him.

“I’ll excuse myself for a moment. Hey, the tea has gone cold. Brew a fresh one.”

“Y-yes, sir.”

Dad took his smartphone and left the room. The maid, following Dad’s instructions, reached for the teapot to replace the tea.

“I’m fine with my tea as it is.”

Even if it’s lukewarm, it doesn’t mean I can’t drink it. I thought it would be a waste to just throw it away.

…Maybe it’s because of Akio-kun that I think that way? As I watched him eat everything he was served, I started to feel bad about throwing away the cup of tea that was offered to me.

“Please don’t say that. I’d receive a scolding.”

“…Right. In that case, I’d like a refill, please.”

I shouldn’t trouble the maid, so I accepted another cup of tea without complaint.

“Why did this have to happen…”

Mom was visibly frustrated, not even sparing me a glance. Her habit of biting her nails was very unladylike.

I tried to enjoy my tea until Dad came back. I didn’t try to talk to Mom, and even the scent of tea didn’t ease the uncomfortable atmosphere.

“Sorry I kept you waiting…”

After leaving just for a short while, Dad came back looking worn-out. Of course, he probably didn’t hear any good news.

“…Erika. Do you have evidence of Saionji-san’s son’s… uh, misconduct on that phone?”

“That’s right. The verbal abuse and the moment of the assault are clearly shown. With video evidence this clear, wouldn’t the police have no choice but to take action?”

Dad slumped his shoulders.

“…Okay. I’ll accept Erika’s condition. That should settle it, right?”

“Yeah. Thanks, Dad♪”

We managed to resolve it somehow. In the end, it was up to Saionji-san, but I was relieved that Dad didn’t force the issue.

I have my own feelings for my parents, but I never thought I’d want to cut ties with them. I found myself feeling relieved that I was able to settle everything without resorting to the last resort.

“Erika, it’s been a while since we had the whole family together. There’s plenty of tea and sweets, so why don’t we have a family gathering from now on?”

“Yeah. Let’s do that.”

——Accepting that was a mistake.

I thought everything was settled and felt relieved. Hearing Dad’s gentle voice after a long time, I felt completely at ease.

“…Huh?”

As my consciousness receded, I heard the sound of a cup breaking. I realized that my tea was spiked as my vision turned pitch black.

Before I knew it, it was already too late. I realized I was still a child, clinging to delusions that my parents would be on my side even at this point.

◇　◇　◇

When I woke up, I saw a ceiling I didn’t recognize… No, it was actually a familiar ceiling.

“Um, w-where am I…?”

Right, I remembered. I thought the discussion with my parents had ended, but it seems like I was drugged with sleeping pills or something.

I looked around. There was only one bed in the small room. There was a small window high up that I couldn’t reach, so I couldn’t see outside.

The only door was locked. Of course, my phone and bag were taken as well.

“Oh no… I never thought they’d actually go this far…”

Shiratori-chan had warned me, saying, “You never know what they might do. For example, they might drug your tea and wait until you’re unconscious…” but I never thought it would actually come to this.

“I said a lot of things, but I still thought of them as my parents…”

Now that I think about it, when I was young, I had been put in this room before.

It was colloquially known as the punishment room. I remembered being locked in here when I did something bad. It’s a place filled with bad memories.

“At least, thanks to Akio-kun, I can call for help…”

I took out a smartphone from my cleavage. This is my smartphone without GPS installed.

It was a good thing I had prepared another one just in case. Akio-kun had advised me, “Even if something happens, if you hide it there, it’ll be fine.” I’m grateful I listened to him.

“…If it’s come to this, there’s nothing else I can do, huh?”

Just as I was about to use my smartphone, there was a knock on the door.

“Miss? Are you awake?”

“?!!”

Oh no! I hurriedly slipped into bed and sent a message to Akio-kun asking for help.

As I heard the sound of the door opening. I carefully hid my smartphone between my chest so that it wouldn’t be found. I want to protect the connection I have with Akio-kun and the others at all costs.
