"And that was the story of my life before I met Lacuna. Stories start from childhood, then about Tasha, the woman I love."
The Emir and Inanna, who only wore panties and pajama tops, did not respond. They both fell silent, covered their mouths with both hands, moist cheeks, and swollen reddened eyes.
We sat on the couch. While I sat alone, they sat next to each other.
"Ma, I'm sorry, Gin. I. I don't know your life is..."
Inanna tried to respond. However, he was unable to respond properly, his voice as unwilling as possible.
I poured water and helped her drink. While my left hand was holding the glass, my right hand rubbed Inanna's back.
"You don't have to apologize. You're not wrong."
"No, I'm sorry. Moreover, I've been repeatedly, trying to follow you."
"I told you you weren't wrong. You didn't know anything at the time either."
If Inanna's guilt alone is this big, I can't imagine Emir's guilt. I mean, she's the princess of this Kingdom. Plus, the Cleinhad family operates with permission from his father, Fahren.
"Gi-Gin, I. I.. I..."
"Shh.. sshh...."
I immediately grabbed the Emir before he could even try to speak further. Now, I grabbed my two future wives in my arms, trying to calm them down.
"You are not wrong. You guys are not wrong. Breathe in, calm down...."
"Ohhhh....."
"Well....."
The effect that happens is just the opposite. They both cried in my arms.
My two future wives are no longer helped.
I kept hugging and rubbing their backs. This is my business with the kingdom of Bana'an. They don't need to feel guilty. But I understand it anyway. People as good as them would feel sorry for me.
After a while, the two of them finally stopped crying. We returned to our original position, I sat alone across from the two of them.
"So let me repeat. That was the story of my life before I met Lacuna."
The Emir responded first, "now I understand why you seem to disrespect your father."
"The matter of respect. how is it..." I was confused to respond. "It seems that it's not. I always used dad as a scapegoat for something like costume trouble at the inauguration party. But anyway, he's my father. I don't know, I don't really care about my relationship with my dad. As long as he doesn't interfere, I'll let him."
"Gin," Inanna in. "Your mother and father knew about this, but what about Ninlil? You promised to introduce her to Tasha, right?"
"I've never told Ninlil this. Honestly, I'm worried. I mean, if you're just feeling this guilty, I can't imagine how Ninlil would respond. A second, I'm worried."
Ninlil was submissive, quiet, and he was also very kind. If Ninlil heard all this, I don't know how big his guilt will be. He would definitely blame himself for feeling insensitive and not knowing the suffering I was going through.
In fact, if it wasn't for Ninlil, I would have run away from home a long time ago. And, if I run away from home, maybe I'll die before I turn five. If that happens, I will never meet Tasha.
If someday comes the moment where I have to tell Ninlil this, I just want to say a big thank you. Thanks to him, I was able to survive until I finally met Tasha.
"So, has my story satisfied you, O members of the Agade?"
[Hahaha, sorry Gin, we eavesdropped.]
[It's a Mulisu idea! Blame him!]
[HEY!]
A static voice sounded from under the sofa.
Inanna and Emir both turned their eyes.
[Hahaha, it seems that it is useless to try to steal from Lugalgin, even if it is just a listening steal.]
[Once again, we're sorry, Gin.]
"Yes, yes, I understand. Now, turn it off. I want to talk to my two future wives. Family business."
[Good!]
All Agade members answered simultaneously.
Afterwards, the Emir took a cylindrical object the size of a ballpoint pen and pressed a button on its end.
"Now, what do you want to do?"
"Huh?"
The Emir and Inanna tilted their heads, showing their confusion.
"I mean, I haven't been able to move on from Tasha. I'm not even sure my love for you is as big as my love for Tasha. Here, it is I who feel guilty towards you."
Emir and Inanna looked at each other. Not long after, they laughed.
Actually, I already know both my future wives well. So, actually, I already knew the response they were going to give. But I need confirmation. I want to hear it right out of their mouths.
"We don't mind" Emir and Inanna replied simultaneously.
The first Emir spoke, "You haven't moved on from Tasha yet? Come onl. We're not gonna dispute that. We know that you have tried to love us with all your heart. We will not take Tasha's place in your heart because we are not her successor. We just want you to leave us a place."
"And again," Inanna added, "if our paths of thought were that low, we would never agree with polygamy, which is that you marry both of us, right? Don't underestimate the princess. From birth, we've been trained to accept it all."
Well, I never underestimated you guys. I just need confirmation. On the other hand, I'm a bit concerned about the training you guys are receiving.
"Gin, we'll always love you."
***
I removed the headset from my ear. Without the light, I listened to all the stories. And now, I'm not sure if my decision to eavesdrop was correct. Turns out, all this time, there was a very heartbreaking story I didn't know.
I can't contain all my sadness. Without being able to control it, tears began to drip.
"Sister, forgive Ninlil, Brother."
Seriate

Hello everybody.
Back, the author wants to thank the likes, comments, and support of the readers. All of this support means a lot to Author. For those who want to see the illustration, can check in ig @renigad.sp.author.
With this chapter, arc 5 was finally completed. Arc 6 is also actually finished as well, but do not know whether to want crazy updates or not. Well, let the author think first.
And, as always, the author will endorse the artist whose image is on the cover. Currently, the illustrator whose image is used as a cover is a pixiv, ⁇ or QYS3 illustrator. So, before, the author just took a walk in pixiv, looking for original content, trus pm artistnya. Because it is not the result of a commission, but public content, the author also does not spend money.
So, the promotion at the end is something that the author does voluntarily because the artist has allowed the author to use the image even though it has actually become public content. So, readers can open the pixiv page and like gallery in https://www.pixiv.net/member.php?id=7210261 or follow his twitter in https://twitter.com/QYSThree. Both can also.
In addition to QYS3, the author has also obtained an eye souvenir from pokarii that can be posted at the end of the story.
