It Wouldn’t Be So Bad Being An Apartment Complex Manager! I Was Optimistically Thinking That, But There My Life Started To Go Downhill! - Chapter 23: Room 211, Satake Machiko - (My First Farm Work)

Chapter 23: Room 211, Satake Machiko – (My First Farm Work)

[The next day, AM 4:58]

“Fu, fuwaaaaaa… Sleepy…”

I was only able to sleep for about two hours due to the pressure I felt for the first time in a while, and I was standing alone in the parking lot where I was supposed to meet, in a completely sleep-deprived state…

I was still feeling pain in my heart, as I directed my gaze alone to Tanaka-san’s room, as if I still had some lingering feelings for her…

“Oh, good morning… Um, Manager… M-My names Iida… Um, y-you woke up quite e-early today…”

(Doki! !)

I turned my body in the direction of the voice, and there was a cute woman with a slender build and small stature, about the same age as me, standing in a tracksuit with her hair in a ponytail, who’s clearly a little nervous!

(I think… I met her during the formal greetings, she lives on the floor above Satake-san, in room 222… Right?… According to the resident’s data, she’s a teacher at an elementary school at the foot of the mountain…)

“Oh, good morning… Iida-san is also early…”

“Ah… Um, I always… I want to feel… The fresh morning air and… The voice of wild birds… Um, jogging on sunny mornings… Well, excuse me…”

“Be careful!”

For a moment, I expected a woman’s voice (“Tanaka-san ♪”) and was disappointed that I was a pathetic man with lingering feelings for a woman like her…

(I still can’t believe everything Satake-san said, but judging by Tanaka-san’s attitude since then, I was just played by her, wasn’t I?… Just as men seek virgins in their history of sexual experience, women also have a desire to conquer virgin men…)

“Good morning! I’m impressed that you’re waiting at the specified time! If it had been me waiting today, you would have lost this job ♪”

A few minutes after I was feeling sensitive, Satake-san appeared, showering me with even more sensitive words!… Because I had just met Iida-san, who was around my age (?), I felt even more like I was about to help my mother…

“Oh, good morning… Thank you for today…”

(But I really don’t want to do it…)

“Good attitude!”

Satake-san, who was standing in front of me, was dressed in a typical farmer woman’s fashion, with a black hat with a brim in the front, decorated with a straw hat design, and a flashy fabric in the back, a farm hat, an outer shirt with a long hem in navy blue, pants in the [norapan] style, which was typical of “I’m working in the fields!” and boots, a look that perfectly matched her age!

“Hmm, you’re wearing jeans and a long-sleeved shirt… Well, it’s fine… But be prepared, those sports shoes will get muddy for sure!”

“Huh… Um, if we’re seen leaving together by other residents…”

“I’m wearing this outfit!… Everyone in this building knows that I’m a farmer, and they’ll just think I’m using you as a helper!… But if anyone says anything to me, I won’t be merciful!… Well, there’s no one like that in this building, though ♪”

“Sa- Satake-san has a lot of power in this building…”

“Fufu ♪… As long as you keep following my orders, I’ll be your ally ♥… So you don’t have to be so scared… Remember those words!”

“Yes…”

Thus, I got into Satake-san’s old light truck and began heading to her farm… This was the first time I experienced the ride of a light truck, but it was far from a comfortable ride!

“Um, Satake-san… How long will it take to get to the farm?”

“Hmm… From here, we’ll drive on the prefectural road, then head towards the mountains for a while, then enter the agricultural road, and then we’ll drive on the forest road for another 10 minutes, so it’ll be a 40-minute drive!”

“4-40 minutes…?”

I was suddenly blinded!

Why do we have to go all the way to the mountains when there are countless farms nearby? I was overwhelmed by a sense of exhaustion even before I started working… And to make matters worse, I had to drive with Satake-san in this narrow space…

(I want to go home…)

While waiting for the signal, I was gazing blankly at the unfamiliar scenery, and Satake-san took out an onigiri wrapped in plastic wrap from the bag she had brought with her, and handed one to me.

“Here, this… It’s with bonito flakes and umeboshi!… I bet you came here without eating anything, right?… Eat this ♪… I made a big onigiri especially for the young you ♪”

“Oh, thank you… I’ll have it…”

Before the signal changed, Satake-san and I opened the plastic wrap of the onigiri, and we both took a bite of it…

As expected of an older lady, the onigiri had a simple taste that reminded me of my mother…

(But if I say that it reminds me of my mother’s taste, I don’t know what this person will say to me…)

“Do you dislike bonito flakes and umeboshi?”

“No… It’s very delicious ♪”

“That’s good!… Oh, I also have a bottle of tea, so drink as much as you like!”

“T-Thanks…”

Our light truck, which was riding in a retro atmosphere, began to head towards the direction where the mountains loomed…

The scenery on both sides was vast fields and rice paddies, and at the end of the narrow farm road, there were only a few farmhouses, and it looked quite lonely to me, who had lived in the city…

“It’s been a long time since I drove with a young man like you… Maybe the last time was seven years ago, when I drove with my son…”

“Y-You have a son?”

“What are you surprised about? I was married, so it’s not strange for me to have a child… Well, now he’s living in California with his wife because of work!”

“Y-Your son is married?”

“Of course, he’s 27 this year, it’s not strange for him to be married!”

(S-She has a son older than me… s-seriously…?)

My head began to wobble, as if it were drunk on alcohol!

At the same time, the lewd scenes with Satake-san from last night began to play in my head again!

(O, I… I did such lewd things with a person who has a grown-up son…)

“Ara? Are you interested in my son?… Hmm… Or maybe… About last night?… My son is independent now, and I’m divorced from my husband!… So I’m going to live my life the way I want from now on ♪… Work, play… Aahn… And… Le-wd things, too ♥…”

Satake-san held the steering wheel with her right hand, and gently placed her left hand on my right hand!

“Sa, Satake-san… It’s dangerous to drive with one hand…”

“It’s okay, from here on it’s a straight line and gentle curves ♪”

The middle finger of her left hand, which was placed on my right hand, began to slowly caress the back of my hand… Maybe because she mentioned last night, her brain also seemed to be screening that erotic scene!

“Aahn, after that… Even after you left, I couldn’t get you out of my head… I felt like a young girl for the first time in a long time, and I couldn’t sleep at all… I finally got out of bed at 3:30 in the morning and started making lunch… I don’t know about you, but I was excited to meet you today ♥… Even though I’m an old lady with grown-up children…”

She smiled at me, blushing!

The woman who only spoke harsh words was smiling!

“Sa, Satake-san…”

(This is bad, I!… I… My heart skipped a freaking beat!)

I wondered if something was wrong with me, but I gently released her left hand, and this time, I took her left hand in my own!

“Ahn… M-My boy…”
