Stealing Spree

Chapter 1106 Scared Fuyu

　　“Yeah, they’re not here anymore,” I muttered to myself when I returned inside the house and went straight to Miwa-nee’s room.

　　The bed where they were just sleeping earlier was already tidied up. There’s still Miwa-nee’s lingering scent though. Well, even as a pervert, I wouldn’t suddenly lean down and sniff all of it. I still have her taste in my mouth, after all.

　　I sat down at the side of the bed and scanned the whole room. There’s nothing much to see but it certainly was different now that this wouldn’t be occupied by the mother and son for a month at most.

　　Obviously, the closet was still filled with their clothes – or half-filled with them. They would return. My mother only took some of Minoru’s clothes and Miwa-nee just filled enough for her to change into in the following days.

　　In any case, knowing that when I leave for school and arrive home from it, I won’t be seeing Miwa-nee in the house anymore, I could admit that I felt some kind of emptiness in my chest that only her presence could fill in.

　　Even though I was aware that she’d return soon enough, separating from her after living together for close to two months made me remember that day five years ago.

　　When I slept that night, Miwa-nee was still in the house, I even played with her. However, when I woke up in the morning, she had already left along with all of her belongings, and something had already changed in me.

　　And as days passed, I gradually forgot about her, stopped wondering if she would return one day and only focused on my desire. The only thing that reminded me of her was the stars she always stared at during the night while relating it all to her.

　　Fortunately, a repeat of that day won’t happen anymore. There’s the internet and we have our phones. Contacting her was only at the tip of my fingers.

　　Just that, I really needed to adjust without Miwa-nee physically here.

　　A while later, I left the room and rejoined the three girls. They all looked at me with worry in their eyes but when I showed them my smile that was devoid of any negative emotion, they sighed in relief.

　　We prepared for school and left soon after.

　　“Husband, I think it’s coming tonight.”

　　“What is it?”

　　“My period!”

　　“Oh… No wonder you’re this clingy again.”

　　Ever since we left the house, the girl remained stuck close to me. I thought she was just trying to comfort me because of Miwa-nee’s departure. But I guess I failed to notice that she’s especially clingy today…

　　“I’m like this every day though?” Akane argued, tilting her head adorably.

　　I reached for her nose and gave it a pinch before shaking my head in disagreement. “No, there's a certain difference on you whenever your quirk was in effect.”

　　It’s not fully in effect yet so… this felt like the normal her. But as soon as it started, Akane would be the same as last month… Should I ask Fuyu to look after her? I planned to get close to that girl and befriend her when Akane’s period arrived… I should strike while the iron is hot.

　　“Don’t call it a quirk, husband.” Akane pouted yet she clung even closer. Perhaps if we were not walking to school, she’d be snuggling at my side, never wanting to leave.

　　I didn’t hate it, of course.

　　“But it is… Even Haruko has it.”

　　“Don’t pull me in your conversation, hubby.” Haruko instantly voiced out. She’s walking a little slower so that she’d be behind me, one of her hands pinching a part of my shirt.

　　“Why not? I’m just stating an example. Is my Haruko you embarrassed about her quirk?”

　　Well, her quirk was just her being more affectionate than normal. If that was active, she wouldn’t be walking behind me, she’d hook her arms on mine alongside the other two regardless of the place or whether there were onlookers or not.

　　Back during middle school, if not for me reminding her that there were other people in the Student Council Room, she’d be all over me whenever her period arrives. She would’ve flaunted that I had already stolen her even to her boyfriend.

　　“I’m not but—”

　　“Then it’s fine. Yours is coming too, right? A week from now, I think?”

　　“This guy… don’t accurately guess it.”

　　Cutting her words off, I made an estimate as to when her period would come. And admittedly, Haruko facepalmed and moved her fingers to pinch me instead of just holding onto my clothes. Her little act of getting back at me.

　　“It’s a monthly occurrence. I have a reference. As for Edel…” I smirked and pulled the girl closer before turning to the silver beauty at my side.

　　“It’s around the same time. Uhm, maybe in a few days after Haru.” Edel answered quickly and without hesitation.

　　“I see. I’ll take note of that and check your quirk.”

　　“I… don’t think I have it. But Ruki… I will be as clingy as always.”

　　I guess that’s also plausible. I mean, some of my girls didn’t really have one. Aya was still the adorable fur ball even during her period. Though there were some who would be in a bad mood like Mizuki or Miyako, that’s more tied to their personality. Nonetheless, I would stick out until they calm down.

　　“Yeah, you’re a certified koala, after all.”

　　“Your adorable silver koala, right?”

　　“Mhm… Wait, how do you know that?”

　　“It’s a secret.” Edel giggled in satisfaction before pulling Haruko as well. This way, we started walking in one line.

　　Continuing with this a little lively conversation and while changing topics after exhausting, we soon reached the train station.

　　Like last week, I sent Haruko and Edel to their platform first before returning to Akane.

　　Around ten minutes later, we’re now comfortably seated in the moving train. On my left, Akane was resting her head on my shoulder. While on my right, Fuyu was trying her hardest not to look at me. However, I already caught her sneakily taking a glance a few times. Because Akane took the corner seat and she wouldn’t move at all to let her friend squeeze to her other side, the girl had no choice but to sit next to me.

　　Given the suspicion she kept on throwing at me and how she became a little apologetic and apprehensive right after it, she looked a little uncomfortable in her seat.

　　I thought of talking to her right then but with how much she’s trying not to meet my gaze, any attempt would be a failure.

　　And so, throughout that train ride, silence reigned on us. The other two, Eri and Futaba didn’t show up at all. Most likely, they’re with their boyfriends. Because of that, an awkward air built up around us and it persisted even after we left the train station.

　　With Akane’s quirk starting to be in effect, Fuyu also found no chance to talk to the silly girl.

　　In the end, it became a matter of whether she’d be open to hearing me out or not…

　　When their school gate appeared from our sight, I decided to attempt once more. This time, even if she put a distance between us, I still called out to her.

　　“Yuuki-san. Do you have a minute?” As I decided to start it with that question, I somehow found myself a little speechless when Fuyu reacted in an unusual way.

　　The girl flinched and hurriedly hid behind Akane…

　　This… Is she scared of me?
