The result of keeping my childhood friend company since we were little ~ Spoiling my childhood friend who has become dere dere - Chapter 40 - Travelling with my Cute Temporary Wife 2

Yuka-san’s words ruminated in my head for two hours.

About halfway to our destination, we decided to take a lunch break at a service area. Well, the problem that arose there was…

“Lots of people…”

“Yeah.”

“Y-You can’t leave, okay?”

“I’m not leaving.”

As I expected, or rather, from the moment we got out of the car, Yuki was stuck to me. It was as if she was already aiming to eliminate the gap completely.

Thanks to this, I am delighted by the soft feeling in my arms. But there is a disadvantage: it is hard to move. But such things are trivial.

“It’s… touching to see you out and about, Yuki.”

“I went out when I got in the car, didn’t I?”

“That’s not what I meant. It’s refreshing to see you away from home.”

“That’s true…”

Whenever I called out, “I’m going shopping” or “I’m going to the convenience store,” Yuki would always say, “I’m going with you,” and follow me.

I had always thought that Yuki would try her best to follow me because it was close to her house.

Until now.

“That’s because Yuu is here…”

“Eh…?”

“It’s because I decided to stay by Yuu’s side…”

I remember, I was seen practicing a rash lie about moving overseas, but Yuki told me she would follow me then.

Even though she was leaving the safety of the place where she had lived all her life, Yuki chose me…

“I’ll be by Yuki’s side too… all the way.”

“Yuu…”

Wanting to share our love with our beloved lover right now, Yuki and I bring our faces close together, but this was not their home. Naturally, there are those who see the scene and are cheering us on.

“Hyuuu Hyuuu~” (Whistling)

“!?”

My habit when I was at home of almost kissing her when I was happy backfired.

“So you spend your days at home kissing like that~ You were so cute with a woman’s face~ Yuki-chan~”

“I envy you~”

“!?”

Jealous words pierced me and Yuki. But it soon changed direction and hit both fathers.

They said, “Our children are flirting with each other, so what if we don’t flirt with them?”

And so, the two mothers who wanted to flirt reminded themselves of their school days.

“Tooru-kun… would you like to hold hands with me?”

“!?”

Tooru had a vision.

She had once shyly reached out her hand to him.

From a first meeting to an acquaintance.

From acquaintance to friend.

From friend to best friend.

From best friend to lover.

From lovers to married couples.

Tooru remembered the nostalgic days when the relationship progressed step by step in this way.

“You haven’t changed…Yuka.”

“There is only one thing that never changes. …It is my love for Tooru-kun. I will always love you. Please let me continue to be by your side.”

“That’s what I want to say. I want you to be by my side forever.”

They kissed lightly on the spot, then walked into the restaurant arm in arm. They created a private world for themselves, not caring about the eyes of others.

Yuki, who had been watching this series of exchanges, had an envious look on her face and looked in the direction they had left.

“Okaa-san was awesome… I wish I could still have that kind of relationship with Yuu after decades…”

“We can be. We met at a different time, but we love each other as much as we love each other. So, if Yuki and I want to, we can be together.”

“I agree with you… Yuu. Even after decades, me and Yuu will still be …”

“Gaaaahh!?”

“”!?””

“See, why don’t you try running away? You love to turn the tables after being cornered, don’t you?”

There was a weak man, Otou-san, with her arm around his neck and a look of anguish on his face, and there was a strong woman, Okaa-san, with a look of joy on her face and her arm around his neck.

“Try to fight back. Let me have some fun! If you don’t, I’ll take it all…”

“”…””

Me and Yuki left the place briskly, feeling as if we were strangers to a terrible scene.

After Yuu and Yuki walked away

“Let’s not be that couple…”

“Yes, we shouldn’t. They live in a different world…”

“Then I guess our target would be my parents’ couple.” (Yuki)

“I’d like that. But more than that, I’d like to be a couple that flirts with Yuki…”

“Yuu…”

Then Yuki and I went around to the back of the store, where it was less crowded, and quietly sought each other out, trying not to make a sound, including the kiss that we had just stopped after being seen.
