Chapter 170 – Aoba / Future Plans (2/2)

「Natsuno-kun…」

Her voice brought Taiyou back to reality. He looked over at her.

It had been fun, or maybe absent-mindedly playful the way she had thought about babies, but now for some reason she was staring right at Taiyou.

She still clung to his arm, but somehow she seemed to be sulking.

「That’s no good.」

「What?」

「Us having a child is no good. It’s different than Kohaku…no, different from Pochi too.」

「…different from Pochi, it’s no good to have a relationship with someone’s daughter.」

「…no, no, no, no.」

Because Aoba’s imagination was getting away from her, it took Taiyou quite a bit of time to understand what she was getting at.

Taiyou thought about having children with the other women.

Aoba understood what everything would entail, and so her imagination now went to what would happen the day after tomorrow.

She thought that Taiyou might try something with her own daughter.

「Of course I wouldn’t, that’s my own daughter.」

「Really?」

「No way.」

After Taiyou clearly denied that, he suddenly thought of something.

(If you set yourself to like daughters, I wonder if it’s possible?)

He thought of the guy that wasn’t here with them any more.

If you like mother/daughter combos, what would happen to a daughter of a mother anyway?

His thoughts developed and became perverse. In his mind, the most screwed up family tree possible developed.

「Ah, I’m thinking of weird crap again.」

Aoba was still staring at him, and pouted at him again.

「No, no, that’s wrong. Let me tell you what I meant.」

But Taiyou already started a counterattack.

「There’s something wrong about you looking at me like that, because if you think I’m thinking about that, you’ll make me angry! Making your face pout like that…」

「But I…」

Aoba’s eyes watered as if to say he had hit her in a place that hurt.

Taiyou’s argument was the correct one, because in the conversation about whether a daughter should fall into the clutches of his mother’s lover, Aoba’s reaction was way too mild.

Aoba was a bit lost after being called out, and she blushed and found it hard to talk.

「I know it’s wrong, but…if you insisted Natsuno-kun…」

「Don’t say that to me!」

「That girl too…I’d give everything to you, Taiyou.」

「I’m saying, don’t start talking like Kohaku!」

「No…because we’d be a real mother/daughter combos so…we’d be better.」

「What do you mean you’d be better? What does that mean?!」

「…in a woman’s battle?」

「You answered in a questioning voice? Since you started this conversation about mothers, now you’re wrapping yourself up with all the other mothers!」

That messed up family tree filled his mind again.

「That’s not true!」

Aoba answered immediately, excited and in a loud voice.

「Well, I mean not really…I mean, I don’t know why one’s wrong and another isn’t…」

She said, and arced her head a bit.

(This conversation is not going in the right direction.)

He thought he could hear a voice telling him not to pursue this any further.

Taiyou realized it was time to stop with this conversation, and grabbed Aoba and drew him to himself.

They held hands and he caressed her palm with his thumb.

No words were spoken, but their emotions mingled.

Even though she was wordless, she snuggled into him until it seemed ticklish.

They walked along like that for a while.

Taiyou was calm and smiling, Aoba had Taiyou’s arm buried in her chest, the two together, walking.

They were in their own world, quite different from the one outside them.

「What a bunch of show-off lovebirds!」

「They’re the reason for global warming!」

「I hope your dong falls off, you non-NEET!」

Suddenly, a group of three guys with smouldering anger in their eyes shouted at the couple.

Hackneyed SJW lines, and reactions.

That’s why Taiyou wasn’t angry at them.

Taiyou used to be a human like them, so he knew how they all felt.

「They told you to die, right?」

「Well, for my dong to drop and die, well, if my dong dropped off I would die pretty quick.」

「Dong drop off? What?」

「Oh, yeah, you don’t know that stuff.」

He thought about it and understood.

Aoba was the type not versed in Internet slang, and unlike the three sisters and Kohaku was still a virgin.

No relationships meant no experience. So she wouldn’t know what dong they were talking about.

After thinking about that, Taiyou suddenly became quite angry.

「Well, it means…」

He whispered into Aoba’s ear.

He informed her of exactly what it meant, and in the dirtiest way possible.

「!!」

He then enjoyed the reaction of the innocent, blushing girl at point-blank range.
