The time when I forcibly slept with my friend's sister!

*Knock* *Knock*

After walking around the room for about ten minutes, Yui heard two knocks on the door before she got up on her feet immediately.

She ran away from the living area after expressing her anger because of the torment her father and brother were bestowing on her. However, in her haste and embarrassment, she didn’t explain anything to her Senpai, even though he did nothing wrong.

She felt guilty and wanted to explain everything to him, which ushered her to hurriedly open the door for her Senpai…

…only to find her brightened expression dimming a bit upon seeing a different person standing there.

“Dad…”

“You break my heart, daughter. Why such a cold greeting?”

Yui didn’t reply but rather invited him inside. She peeked around a bit but didn’t find anyone along with her father.

“If you are concerned about your Senpai, then he is on the ground floor with Ichi. Don’t worry, I won’t take long.”

Yui sighed before she nodded and turned to look at her father, who had already made himself comfortable on the chair, placed across the bed.

Yui gingerly walked to the bed before acquiring the edge and facing her Dad.

Truth be told, after what her brother told her about their mother’s decision toward Yui’s resolution to stay by her Senpai’s side, the teenager just wanted to never meet her parents again.

Their relationship was already hanging by a very thin thread and her mother just shredded it even more.

However, Yui was unsure of her father’s take on this. Mostly, he always follows his wife’s words as a necessary major and does whatever she suggests like he is bound by a contract or something.

Yui believed, that if her father had done things according to his conscience then things might have been different for the better.

Alas, he was just another helpless man following the lead of a woman.

“You seem quite disappointed in me, Yui.” Her father’s tone was weak and almost self-deprecating as he smiled at his daughter while asking something he noticed by the way she was looking at him.

And truth be told, Raeji couldn’t blame her. It wasn’t the first time he had felt that things might have turned worse because of his inability to go against his wife.

It wasn’t that he was scared of her….but Kaori(wife) was a person he relied on a lot and had never given enough happiness that a wife deserves. So arguing with her seemed like he would be torturing her after promising a lifetime’s worth of happiness.

However, if he expresses such thoughts to his children or anyone, he would be regarded as a coward man, running away from reality, nothing more.

“I am not disappointed Dad…I am just sad that you never take our side. It had always been like this that now, I don’t raise my hopes anymore.”

Yui was blunt and she may have sounded rude as well, however, she didn’t know any roundabout method of relaying her genuine thoughts.

Any time she quarrels with her mother, Yui knows that her father is not going to take any stand at all. He may nod or provide one-liners in between, but it would be always in support of his wife.

“You knew a lot of times Mom was in the wrong or various times, her decision just doesn’t make any sense…yet you never took any bold step against it. And that…makes me immensely sad, Dad.”

Was Yui venting? Maybe, she was. After all, she had never gotten a chance to have a one-on-one conversation with her father ever before and every time she wanted to direct her accusation or demand at her Dad, her mother would interrupt.

Yui didn’t expect any change, however, she was now a little bit satisfied by the fact that she relayed her true thoughts to him.

However, her satisfaction didn’t mean she would forgive her parents. More so, when her mother was reluctant to let Yui be her Senpai’s side.

That simply was intolerable.

“Ah…” Yui was broken out of her daze when she suddenly found warmth over her head.

Tilting her head, she found her father had walked to her and currently had his palm attached to her head. The gesture was familiar…yet she didn’t have a clear vision of it. But it felt warn so Yui didn’t think about it for long.

“I know you are distressed and rightfully so. However, this time I won’t let you and your brother down.”

Yui’s upturned gaze asked her father to continue, and the man didn’t let his adorable daughter wait for long,

“This weekend, bring Riku with you. Let’s have a family chat, alright?”

Yui’s eyes lit up at that. Even if this meeting didn’t go as she anticipated, she felt joyous at the thought that her father had accepted her relationship with her Senpai.

[Back on the ground floor]

“Do you think, Dad would have gotten entry into the room?” Ichinose couldn’t help asking as he rested lazily on the couch while munching over some roasted peanuts.

Riku raised his brows before responding, “Yui-chan is short-tempered at times but she won’t insult her Dad in such a way.”

…even though his friend said that, Ichinose doubted. After all, it was Yui in question. If she really could be unnaturally tolerant and forgiving toward anyone in this world, then it would be the person sitting beside Ichinose.

“I just hope everything goes fine…” Ichinose sighed as he slumped even lower on the comfortable couch while putting the snack bowl aside.

A brief silence ensued between them before Riku voiced a certain query, he had holding back for a while now,

“Hey, Ichi…what were you saying about Yui’s behavior toward me? I mean, you know…”

Riku felt awkward asking such a thing from the brother of his girlfriend, but then again, was there someone else to help satiate his curiosity? Of course, he wouldn’t dare raise such a question to Raeji.

Ichi blankly looked at his friend before asking in a solemn voice, “Why are you trying to get a silver metal pass through my chest ‘accidentally ‘ by my sister?”

(A/N: Silver metal = Knife)

Riku bewilderedly turned toward his friend with his brows raised but before he could ask anything, a pair of footsteps approached them.

Riku stood up immediately upon seeing the familiar figure of an older man, looking at no one but him, as he stood just right in front of Riku with a serious expression.

He got so nervous by being directed with the look, that Riku didn’t notice when Yui walked in and stood at a side.

“Hikari Riku.” Riku instinctively replied with a ‘Hai!’ before the older one voiced something completely out of nowhere.

“I can’t give you my daughter.”

“Ha?!”
