Owe a Wife

Episode 6

...Chapters 6...

...Family Fool...

I, not only will I be living with Hitotsuba-san, but next year will also be getting married! Become the daughter-in-law of her family! Did my parents approve of that!? Oh right, they already agreed to it with a promise signed by them!

…I can imagine my jerk dad signing it with a smile on his face, and my mom smiling cheerfully and saying things without burden like: “Now Yu-kun will be happy.”

“Do not worry. I myself, of course I will support Yuya-kun, but I'm sure you already have a great desire that won't let me down. After you become my husband, you will work with my father and eventually become the leader of the Hitotsuba Group. This has been decided.”

What happened to this father and daughter? My family is not important, but the Hitotsuba-san family is the Hitotsuba Group! They allowed me, a high school student they had never met, to marry their only precious daughter, and now they have decided to make me the next leader!

“Your parents and my parents, they both blessed us with their permission. And unfortunately, for Yuya-kun, you have no right to refuse. If you refuse..you know what will happen, right?”

Yes. I understand what you mean. I'm sure I'll be forced to work like a slave in the Hitotsuba Group. Or maybe I'll be forced to work underground like in the manga world. Only hell will wait for me, where I cannot see the sun until I die.

“Fufufu... As expected of Yuya-kun, you are very perspective. If you refuse, I keep you by my side for the rest of your life as my personal servant. Just a waitress, so you won't be able to kiss me, let alone do naughty things. You will experience a hell where you will not be able to touch me even if I expose my helpless body.”

It also sounded like hell, but it was obviously a different kind of hell. I didn't expect that I would meet the day when I heard Hitotsuba-san talking about kisses and indecent acts, but the fact that her face was flushed red showed that she was overextending herself. But, forbidden love while serving that woman as her personal servant, huh? That doesn't sound bad.

But just as I was thinking that, Hitotsuba-san immediately retracted her words.

“Oh, no, no! I don't want to fall into a forbidden love! It's not a bad thing, but. anyway I still prefer pure love..... I want a love that can make me with you in public.”.

What the fuck with this girl, she's so cute. Though fitting in at school, Hitotsuba-san always looks dignified, virtuous and cool, but now, she looks so cute and innocent. She looked like a girl who would love shoujo manga aimed at teenage girls. His appearance and behavior contrasted, which created a large moe gap. And men are simple creatures that are prone to it.

“B-Good. I'll accept the offer. It wasn't something I could refuse from the start, and it was a magical offer to me. It would be a miracle for me to live with someone like Hitotsuba-san and marry her. Isn't that a dream come true? Isn't that the best?”

I try my best to be cheerful. I quickly sipped the entire tea from my teacup to moisten my dry throat. It brought a calm feeling to my heart that was beating so fast.

But. this is good. I was able to live together with a very beautiful woman like Hitotsuba-san, marry her, and eventually become the leader. So yeah, it's good. I will not be lonely at all.

“Yuya-kun! You why? Are you sick or something?”

“...... Eh? What is it, Hitotsuba-san? I don't feel pain anywhere.”.

“Then Yuya-kun, why are you crying..?”.

I touched my cheek. My fingers feel wet and cold. Strange, why am I crying? I was released from my stupid parents, but why did it feel so painful that my chest felt like it was about to be torn apart? Why would…

“It's okay, don't worry Yuya-kun. I'll be by your side. I will always be by your side.”

Before I knew it, I found myself being hugged by Hitotsuba-san. She gently rubbed my back as if she was taking care of a little child and called out to me. His voice is full of compassion. Inevitably I embrace her waist and embrace her, aah it feels so comfortable I want to sleep.

“Surely things are difficult for you. So from now on, let's be happy together, Yuya-kun.”

The goddess's embrace felt so comfortable. I want to stay like this forever.

“If you have calmed down, please pack your things. We're gonna tear this house down.”

I was in a happy mood until her words brought me back to reality. Wait, this house is going to be demolished? Seriously?

“We will clean the land and rebuild the house for rent. Rental income will also go into our pockets. Oh, but our love nest will be fine. I prepared it. Fortunately, tomorrow is Saturday and our school is off, so let's go shopping!”

I sobbed and nodded. Hitotsuba-san smiled and patted my head. I don't understand what's going on anymore.

It seems that my father's blood has really flowed all over my body, and I may have made a very important decision that will affect my life.
