Living Normally In An Abnormal World - Chapter 74: Pool 2

Chapter 74: Pool 2

“Yuuto-sama! Please let me see your back!”

“Hanaka, sexual harassment is not allowed.”

“Why… Wgt are you hiding it? Your back is a masterpiece of beauty. Today is a rare opportunity to showcase it, yet you hide it. I find it hard to understand!”

“This swimsuit was given to me by Erina in the first place. In other words, it was the only option I had.”

“…I see.”

“Uwa, that’s scary. Hanaka is scary.”

Hanaka, who has lost her highlight.

Yuuto couldn’t bring himself to say, “I’ll show you my back, so calm down,” so he decided to observe her without doing anything.

And, he tries to pet her head. Her highlight returns a little.

“Hanaka-san, could you come over here?”

“Fufufu, this is a conspiracy. A despicable trap to set me up…”

“Hanaka-san~”

Yuuna, unable to bear it, takes Hanaka somewhere else. Yuuto thought about following them but decided against it. When women are doing something secretly, it’s better to leave them alone. Men know this.

And after waiting for a few minutes,

“Yuuto-sama! I apologize for my earlier behavior! Now, let’s go to the waterslide together. Of course, I’ll be behind you!”

A super happy Hanaka emerges from the shadows.

…Yuuna is amazing.

He doesn’t pry any further.

The scene shifts to the adult group.

They are more interested in relaxing on the poolside beds than actually swimming. They engage in girls’ talk and observe Grauzer playing.

Meanwhile, the kids are playing ball in the pool.

Since they have achieved their goal of seeing Yuuto’s swimsuit, they don’t ask for more. No peeking or showing off is allowed. Well, maybe Yuuto, who is a bit airheaded, might…

“Aaaah!”

“Yuuto-kun!!”

It doesn’t seem likely.

“Ouch, it hurts. Do you have a tissue?”

“Here, Yuuto-sama.”

“Ribbon, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Yuto, who has a nosebleed, gets out of the pool.

After receiving a tissue from Ribbon, he doesn’t try to join the adults but instead starts to move away.

Ribbon, who is sensitive to this, convinces Yuuto and forces him into the adult group.

“I can’t keep up with adult conversations, you know?”

“In the end, it’ll just be a complaint session, so it’s fine.”

“Yuuto-kun, sometimes conversations between women can be a bit lonely. So, we need to add some color into it.”

“Yuuto-san, it’s not a bad idea to join in on adult conversations once in a while.”

“Well, excuse me then.”

They successfully manage to keep Yuto with them.

The women make a fist that Yuto didn’t see. Usually, their daughters take him away, so they only have a short time to spend with Yuuto (except for Erina and Manatsu). They want to make the most of this opportunity, so they start a conversation with him.

“By the way~, Rina has been coming to your house every day lately. Is that okay~? Is she not a bother~?”

“No, not at all. Spending time with Rina is fun. Playing online games with her while on a call is good, but I prefer sitting next to her and talking while we play. But I always lose to Rina because my play skills are not as good as hers. And when she wins, she always teases me. But her face is so proud and happy, and I can’t help but smile when I see her.”

“Thank you…”

“No, I enjoy spending time with her, so I’m the one who should be grateful.”

Yuto, who is facing away from the pool, probably can’t see Rina blushing and shaking her body from his comments.

Meanwhile, the girls have stopped playing ball and are listening to their conversation, peeking out of the pool. They look at the adults and mentally urge them to bring up topics about them.

The ladies, sensing my wish, avoided the subject altogether, steering the conversation elsewhere.

Hey, you all haven’t forgotten about that sleepover, right?

In the end, Rina wins among the girls.

“How many!”

“23.98.”

“…Not bad?”

“Yes. It seems like you’re still not used to it. Let’s take it slow.”

“Okay.”

“I’ve spotted a few bad habits. Let’s correct those first. After that, swim 1 kilometer.”

“I understand.”

Yuuto came here for training, but the sweet temptation of seeing him in a swimsuit made him forget his original reason for being at the pool.

As Elrna announces that they will begin training, the girls in the pool quickly get out. Maria considers her options and decides to join them, taking a break before participating.

There are some unnecessary glances, but no one dares to interfere with Erina and Yuuto.

If anyone dares to interfere, they will be dragged to hell.

Even now, Erina is touching Yuto’s body to correct his bad habits, and she doesn’t blame him for it. Her gaze doesn’t convey any ulterior motives with it either.

Yuuto listens to Erina’s explanations seriously and, after correcting his habits, starts swimming.

“Hey, don’t you think swimming 1 kilometer is insane?”

“Rina-chan, normally we start with 2 kilometers. This time, it’s just 1 kilometer because it’s his first time.”

“Wait, his first time?”

“Training won’t end with just 1km, you know. This is not an ordinary pool. It has various functions. Next, he’ll most likely be swimming against the current.”

“Ribbon, prepare a plastic bag. Just in case she vomits.”

“Yes, ma’am!”

Watching the training, the girls couldn’t help but think:

(Seriously, is there really training where puking is a given!?)

But no one tried to stop it.

These were women who valued their own well-being.
