When I brought my childhood friend back home after a long time, she suddenly started undressing and said, "I want you to hold me..." - Chapter 7
Meanwhile Aoi, who was in the living room…
‘What am I doing? Why was I trying to embrace him while being dressed like this! I should hurry up and change my clothes, why am I still here in the first place?!”
In the meantime, I had time to think calmly.
I noticed that the conversation had become even more complicated.
‘Oh, that’s right… I invited him to clear yesterday’s misunderstanding.’
I’ve already crossed the line without thinking about it too much and now I have to sort all of it.
However, for her, who only knows how to study hard and who has not been in any kind of romantic relationship so far, was in a pinch on how to proceed things properly from here.
‘Seriously, what should I do? I can’t even think straight because of the embarrassment… I thought it would be a good idea to clear all the misunderstandings right at the start, but because of the awkward mood I didn’t have the time for it.’
Even if we sort everything out by saying a simple sorry, it is definitely not easy to do it and just decide to go out with each other.
It is true that I like him.
I fell in love at first sight after seeing him for a long time and decided to sleep with him because of the result of a fortune slip, but I was still conscious that I had done it because of my own overly irresponsible behavior.
Moreover, I am not sure what to say after we have crossed the line.
It was truly a dead end.
‘It’s no good… even though I have seen him naked, I am still nervous. Maybe I should have consulted the senior of my department or Mizuki.’
I kept thinking about it for more than ten minutes.
But I couldn’t think of any idea and the time was running late.
“Sorry for the delay… Hey, are you okay?”
Sho came out of the kitchen with a bowl of fried rice in his hands.
“Hya—”
“… Huh?”
“Sorry, it’s nothing. Never mind.”
A squeak came out of my mouth because of the embarrassment, but when I assured him that I was okay, he nodded and stopped pursuing it.
The most important thing is that you should not be afraid of the people who are in charge of your business.
‘Ah, it’s bad… No matter how much I try to clear it, it’s tough.’
“Well, let’s eat before it gets cold. We will talk afterwards.”
“… Un.”
“”Itadakimasu.””
We clasped our hands together and thanked for the food.
I could see the goodness of his upbringing.
Aoi followed his suit, murmuring in a whisper.
“Alright, I’ll take a bite then.”
Sho who took a spoonful of the served food, glanced at Aoi who was like a purring cat, hurriedly takes a spoon and eats as well.
“Mmm~”
She takes a bite and munches on it for a while. It was just two seconds long, but enough to evaluate the overall taste.
“Wow, what is this? it’s should delicious~”
Aoi herself was surprised, but the taste was genuine that her inner thoughts leaked unconsciously.
‘The more I chew the pork, the more its juices overflow, and the taste of egg and rice is perfectly intertwined. The balance of salt and pepper is so good and the texture is equally pleasant. The accented chili peppers add a spiciness to it. In other words… It is perfect.’
Flattering or not, it was as good as serverd in any ramen shop or Chinese restaurant.
It was so good that it made my cheeks loosen up and blisfill smile couldn’t help but show up on my face.
Once I started eating the fried rice, there was no going back and I munched all of it without saying a single word.
“Wow, Isn’t this too delicious?
“Hey, you are eating too fast, and I am glad that it’s delicious.”
“It’s far from the normal level, it’s just like a professional chef made it.”
“Well… my parents used to run a family restaurant, so that’s from where I learned to cook. And if you want to ask about it’s recipe, then I am sorry because it’s a secret.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Sho was stunned to see his childhood friend with a surprised reaction and her mouth wide open.
But she used to come to our house a lot in the past, wait… I wonder if she still remembered it.
However, seeing the strange surprise of the person, it was clear that she forgot about it.
“Did you forget…?”
“Ah—”
“No, wait… didn’t my family used to run a family restaurant long ago?”
“…..”
Aoi quickly closed her open mouth and turned her head to the side at full speed.
After a few seconds of silent contemplation, she came up with a reason.
“—-What are we even doing?”
The air in the place was stilled for a moment by the too simple answer.
Sho was taken aback by Aoi’s words.
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, we came here to talk about various things, right?”
“I mean… well, I guess you could say that.”
“Then why are you having fun and reminiscing our childhood over dinner.”
It was certain that both of them came here together to clear yesterday’s misunderstanding, but one thing led to others. From the awkward atmosphere because of Aoi’s dress, to Sho’s cooking to calm his mind and then after it was done, they both took the dinner together and it somehow got escalated to their past while contemplating his cooking
They both are just too clumsy.
“Well, that’s true.”
“Yeah, that is what I wanted to say all along from the start.”
“Alright then let’s eat quickly and talk things over.”
“Sure.”
The full-fleged fried rice discussion abruptly came to an end. Aoi and Sho quickly ate the dinner, cleaned the dining table and cleansed the dishes. After it was all over, they both sat down facing each other to finally come over a conclusion of the supposed ‘misunderstanding’ which led to them having s-x.
