Chapter 139: I Want to Be with You Forever

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

“And then, on the first day of school… I still remember it clearly. When Maria came home, she was absolutely beaming, and she said: ‘I’m gonna be a gyaru~’ …So she said. There were two young ladies with her, dressed in the same school uniform, and they had a slightly flashy vibe to them…”

『I’m her classmate, Misaki Tsukishiro』

『And I’m Risa Amamiya』

“It was the first time Maria ever brought friends home, so I was honestly a bit flustered…”

『I became friends with her because I wanted to grope Maria’s big boobs! And not just the boobs—her house is huge too! Squish squish ♡』

『Are you seriously groping her boobs in front of her parents!? Even Muneshige-san and the maids are completely freaked out!』

『That tickles~』

“Seeing the three of them having such a good time together, I couldn’t help but tear up…”

『So anyway—nice to meet you, Munecchi!』

『Hey, Misaki! At least use his real name—wait, wha!? Oh no, Muneshige-san is crying!?』

『Whoaahhh!? Are you okay, Mune-muneee!?』

“—Yeah, Misaki totally panicked back then, didn’t she?”

“I was seriously freaked out… Well, chalk it up to youthful stupidity.”

No, you’re still basically the same one year later, though?

“Ahahahahahaha!”

After finishing the story, President Yotsuba let out a cheerful laugh.

“The fact that we can all laugh together like this now is entirely thanks to you, Misaki-chan and the others. Truly, thank you.”

“Aww~♡ You’re making me blush~♡”

“Heehee~ It’s kind of embarrassing~♡”

The cheerful duo smiled sheepishly, scratching the backs of their heads.

“And of course, Ayane-chan too.”

“I didn’t really do anything worth thanking me for. I just love Maria and want to be with her, so that’s why I stay by her side.”

“I love everyone too. I want us to always be together~”

“Fufu, that’s right.”

The President lovingly patted his granddaughter Maria on the head, then turned to face the four of us.

“As you all know, this girl can be a little… Well, free-spirited. She may trouble you from time to time, but please—continue to watch over Maria warmly in the future.”

He said this as he bowed deeply.

“O-of course! So please, lift your head!”

“You got it!”

This gyaru…! Her reaction is way too casual about this!

“You need to respond more properly!”

“Wait, really?”

I straightened my posture and gave him a formal bow.

“I’ll do my best to make Maria-san happy.”

“Hmm? And is it only my granddaughter you’ll be making happy?”

“Uh… Ah… I-I’ll make… All four of them happy…”

“Mm, very good.”

President Yotsuba nodded in satisfaction.

“Don’t worry about appearances. I’ll also make sure you’re financially secure. I’ll do everything I can to ensure you can all live comfortably. I’ve already arranged temporary housing until you have children.”

Housing…?

“In return, Nagumo-kun, you’ll be working at our company. I expect you to contribute fully to the growth of our group.”

The company…?

“Hm? What’s wrong? You look totally stunned. I’ve heard from Yowakida-san that you’re ready to switch jobs.”

“The Section Chief…?”

The next day… When I arrived at work, I was greeted by warm applause from my coworkers.

“Nagumo-kun! Thanks for everything!”

Then, Section Chief Yowakida handed me a small bouquet.

“…Huh?”

“Thanks to you, the big contract with Yotsuba Foods went through, and our company’s future is secure. I’m really grateful. It’s a shame we won’t get to see you in action anymore, but good luck at your new job! We’re all rooting for you!”

“Um… Well…”

“That said, since your next job is going to be presidential secretary at Yotsuba Foods, I’m sure we’ll still cross paths from time to time. I’m looking forward to it!”

“Wait, secretary!?”

That was the first I’d heard of it.

“And here’s this too.”

The paper handed to me by the Section Chief was titled Letter of Resignation.

“You’ll officially leave after using up your remaining paid vacation, so write the date two weeks from now in the ‘Desired Final Day’ field.”

“Huh…?”

Oh no. This is actually happening. I’m really quitting.

“Umm… Just wondering… When exactly did I say I wanted to change jobs…?”

“Hm? About a month ago, I think?”

“A month ago…?”

“Remember, I asked you to confirm the ‘recruitment offer’ from President Yotsuba? And you gave me a clear answer—‘I agree! Go ahead and move forward with that!’”

“Ahh…”

Yeah. I did say that. Totally didn’t mean it that way, though…

“Y-yeah… Haha…”

No way I could admit now that it was all a misunderstanding. Afterward, colleagues I’d shared both struggles and laughter with came to say their goodbyes one by one. It finally hit me.

I really am leaving this company.

Once I packed up my personal belongings into a cardboard box and cleared off my desk, I gave a final farewell to the Section Chief.

“Oh right! Be sure to give our regards to President Yotsuba and his grandson Seijuurou! Especially me! Don’t forget about me!”

I gave a polite, fake smile to my boss, who was still trying to score points, and left the company I had worked at for six and a half years.

“Ahh, I’m beat.”

Barely two hours after clocking in, I returned home, slipped off my suit, and collapsed into bed. So much had happened since yesterday. My brain was overloaded, and my body was completely drained. I had tons of things I wanted to check, but for now, I needed a break.

I figured I could ask Kaede-san later. She wasn’t just Maria-san’s older sister, but apparently President Yotsuba’s direct subordinate, so she probably knew the details of everything.

……Zzz… zzz……

And so, I fell asleep.

Ping! Ping!

“…Mmm…ngh…”

The next time I woke up, it was to the notification sound on my smartphone. The sun outside the window had already begun to set.

Misaki

【Come to the 22nd floor of the tower condominium in front of the station~♡】

【Ufu~n♡】

Along with the message, she had sent a sticker of a sexy, busty anime lady.

Tower…Condominium…?

Rubbing my groggy eyes, I double-checked the message, thinking I might have misread it. But no… it really did say “tower condominium.”

“Seriously…?”

It looked like I wouldn’t be getting any rest anytime soon.
