Stealing Spree

Chapter 278: Satsuki and Cakes

When the train stopped at the station before the station for the school, Satsuki's sister and her friend went out of the train car as soon as the door opened.

On the other hand, I waited for at least before it closed to stand up and leave.

After I messaged Satsuki about her sister, I ended up telling her to get down and meet her for a bit. She would be here at the station, welcoming her sister and her friend who will stay at their house for this weekend.

Now I wonder why her sister brought that huge bag if they will only stay until tomorrow. Compared to her, her friend was only carrying a small designer handbag, slung on her shoulder.

As I walked out of the station, the two were walking slowly a distance away in front of me. However, even from afar, I already saw the tall and lovely girl Satsuki. She's wearing her favorite hoodie and skinny pants which emphasized those plump thighs of hers. And even though she's wearing a cap on her head, I would never mistake her for someone else.

A certain distance behind her, there's Sakuma, dressed too elegantly for this situation.

For him to appear here, Satsuki's sister probably informed him. And despite that, he hid behind to prevent himself from interacting with Satsuki.

Is he feeling guilty that he's now running after her sister?

Well, it's not like Satsuki still felt bad for him. After that talk between the two of them, Satsuki already decided to let go of any feelings she might have towards that guy. I already stole all of the affection that should've been his from the start.

"Your sister is truly taller than you, I thought you're joking."

Because they stopped their steps when Satsuki welcomed them, the distance between us shortened and the voice from that friend was clearly heard by me.

"Heh. To see is to believe, right? I'm aware you didn't believe me when I told you." Satsuki's sister answered smugly before pulling on her sister's arm. "Satsuki, let me introduce you two, this is Juri. Juri, this is Satsuki."

Since Satsuki's sister is taller than the girl, it's natural that she could only crane her neck to properly see Satsuki eye to eye. Embarrassed, Satsuki bent her knee for a bit before bowing to the girl.

"You're already a college student but you're still this mischievous, Setsuna. It's great that you have this polite sister." The college girl Juri sighed softly as her voice carried a reprimanding tone.

However, Satsuki's sister smirked as her gaze went back to Satsuki.

"What polite? She's here to see someone else, you know. This girl never welcomed me like this."

"You mean?" Confused, Juri's gaze also went back to the tall girl that's already about to turn red because of her sister's words.

"Setsuna-nee!" Satsuki protested but her sister only laughed at her.

Since our gazes already met, Satsuki's eyes naturally turned to me and likewise, her sister and the friend followed her gaze.

At this point, I already stopped my tracks and didn't proceed to approach them. Sakuma that was from afar was already biting his fingers. I don't know what's on his mind and I don't really care, I'm here for the tsundere girl after all.

Still maintaining that smirk, her sister's lips turned to a playful grin as she observed me with a delightful interest. Her friend also did the same, albeit only with slight interest. She's a tag-along and most likely confused about the two sisters' interaction.

"Alright. Go on and see him, stop turning red there. Besides, Ryou might stay hidden if you walked with us, he'll escort us home. That's why I called him here."

After saying that, she tapped or rather pushed on Satsuki's back before pulling her friend towards Sakuma's location.

"See you at home, introduce your guy to me, understand?"

Leaving behind those words, Satsuki's sister slipped her hand around Sakuma's arm and pulled the stiff guy out of the station.

Just from that, it's clear that there's really something between them. However, I'm just not sure if she only sees him as a toy to tease or she is still interested in him.

When they disappeared from both of our sights, Satsuki timidly approached me.

"Ruki…"

To cheer her up, I reached for her hand and naturally locked it. "Your sister got you good there. Wanna stop by somewhere?"

"Un." Satsuki nodded as she stepped closer to me.

If she's red from embarrassment earlier, the red on her face at this moment is because of me.

As if this is my own neighborhood, I pulled her along with me as we strolled out of the station and to a certain destination in my mind.

Around 10 minutes later, we arrived at the same cake shop where we bought the lemon cake during my first visit to her house. They could also allow us to dine in so I had her sit on a corner table, the most private spot of the shop before going to the counter.

"Owner, two slices of this and this. Also lemonades for our drinks." I pointed to the lemon cake and a cheesecake before pulling my wallet to pay for it.

"I remember you. It seems that you're still together, that's good. Young ones these days are too fickle when it comes to relationships." The elderly owner of the shop stared at me as if trying to remember me by face. She then smiled kindly as she hummed a cheerful tune while putting our orders on plates.

"I will never split with her, owner. We'll come back here often to eat your cakes." I answered confidently which earned me an approving nod from her.

Well, if she knew that I am in multiple relationships, I wouldn't receive this warm reception from her. In any case, there's no point divulging my private life with her.

Elated from a promised regular customer, the elderly owner put in a slice of a chocolate cake in a good mood. "Thank you, young man. I'll put this in as a house service."

I thanked the owner and carried the tray containing what I ordered and went back to Satsuki who's been watching me from her seat since earlier.

Upon looking at the contents of the tray, she pouted upon the sight of lemon cake and lemonade.

"… Are you going to tease me again?"

I arranged the plates and glasses on our table before answering.

"Not really, I just want to cheer my Satsuki up. Do you not like it?"

"Idiot. Of course, I do. Don't sit there. I want you next to me." Without lifting the pout on her lips, she wriggled towards the corner to free up the space next to her.

The chairs and tables here are almost the same as what one would see in family restaurants after all, it's for four persons and the backrest of the chair was tall enough to exercise privacy.

I could only shake my head as I rearranged the plates to be side by side before sitting next to her.

As soon as I did that, Satsuki fixed her seating position and stuck close to me where our shoulders touched.

"Alright, how can I erase that pout on your lips?"

"Kiss me." She took off her cap revealing her ponytailed hair, a part of it left freely dangling at the side of her face.

I already saw her once in this but upon seeing it again, even without her telling me, my head moved by itself. Taking her lips into a kiss, Satsuki soon relaxed as she reached for my hand.

After two minutes, our lips and tongue separated, leaving her in a dreamy state.

To get her out of it, I took the fork and fed her a bit of the lemon cake resulting in her blushing once more.

Of course, being Satsuki, she couldn't let herself lose like this. After gulping down the cake, she took her fork and also fed me a slice.

"I didn't think I would be recognized by your sister," I said while we're drinking the lemonade to push the cake down. Although there were two glasses, I was alternately sipping on my straw. If we finish this, we'll drink hers next.

No matter how she always expressed her dislike on how I tease her, Satsuki is this sweet of a person.

"Ah. I showed our picture together to her." Satsuki answered after taking a sip.

"Not the ones where we're naked I presume."

"Of course not, pervert." And my answer earned me a pinch from her.

"I'm just making sure. She really looked a bit like you but you're now taller than her. Also, your personality is somewhat contrasting."

"That's how she always is. My sister is amazing." Looking at her eyes, it's really filled with admiration and maybe a bit of guilt. The thing she did before is still on her mind.

"Well, if you ask me, my Satsuki is more amazing."

"Don't flatter me, idiot. I liked it better when you're showing it in actions."

"There's nothing wrong with this, right? By the way, did you miss me?"

"And there, you don't need to ask me the obvious. I always do… You're going home after this, right?"

After a small pause, Satsuki carefully asked.

"Un. But if you want, I can go and introduce myself to your sister and your family." I answered.

Upon hearing that, Satsuki's eyes appeared troubled despite it having the hint of desire to make what I answered a reality. "I want to but…"

"Alright. There's still a next time." She's still probably worried about what her parents' reactions will be.

"Don't misunderstand… It's not that I don't want to—"

"I understand. You have your reason"

"I will definitely introduce you soon. That way, I don't need to sneak you in anymore…"

I put a finger on her lips to stop her from explaining. This will never end if I let her after all.

"Alright, you don't need to explain. This girl, where's that headstrong Satsuki?"

"… You already tamed her, idiot." She turned her head away before her sweet voice carried the answer to my ears.

"If you keep acting cutely like this, I will fall further for you." Well, there's no falling further, I'm already deeply in love with this girl…

However, I could also say the same to my other girls… Well, let's focus on her for now.

"That's my intention." With her beautiful smile, Satsuki replied. And soon after that, she pulled my head into a kiss once more, resulting in a fluffier aura in this corner.

Soon after that, we enjoyed the cakes until we cleared all of them and left the shop both satisfied.

Although I only stopped here for a while on her request, spending time with her like this is satisfying. I walked her just right before their street before separating from her to continue my way back home.

When I sat inside the train again, I opened my phone and saw Satsuki's message.

"Thank you for your time, Ruki. I love you."
