「Huh?」
「What, not Leticia?」
「We thought you totally meant Leticia.」
Triplet sisters made the same, but three different faces covered with the same look of surprise.
At their reaction, Taiyou was doubly surprised.
「No, Leticia…」
「Leticia comes to where you lives as well, Taiyou.」
「She’s already…」
「There’s four there.」
「There? …Oh.」
He was lost at what they were saying, but because the three had the same eye movement to check the numbers drifting by 「in the back of the eye」like Kohaku did, he knew that they had checked the corrected numbers of women in his 「idol worship」group.
That meant that Leticia was one of those numbers now.
Taiyou couldn’t say yes or no about it.
There were thoughts he had concerning Leticia, but he was currently putting them all aside.
However, even though he had put those thoughts aside, he had one more thing to ask.
「Even so, aren’t you three going to buy something for yourselves?」
「Us?」
「No…」
「We’re fine.」
All three turned their faces to him and responded it wasn’t necessary.
They weren’t being reserved or even holding back, but seemed that they really had nothing to buy.
When Taiyou was told something like that, he still felt like he should object.
Since he had decided to make all of his 「wives」happy, he thought that way.
So much so that he might force them to say something that they wanted, he thought.
—From now, a limited-time sale is beginning.
As he was about to open his mouth, the speaker over him announced the beginning of a limited sale.
「Suzu-chan, Kaza, chan.」
「Yes!」
「Taiyou, see you later!」
As they said that, they all rushed away from him.
All the sudden there was a wife-war over the sale. Suddenly overlooking everything for the limited sale, they had left him by himself.
「…what now?」
He was left alone with his cart, puzzled that all the girls had left him.
「Oh, is that you, Taiyou-kun?」
「Hm?」
He turned upon hearing the gentle voice, and there was Aoba’s mother, alone, Nazuna Yamagata.
She hadn’t changed much since the last time he saw her, wearing a soft dress with a cardigan around her shoulders, with that same fickle nature as always.
As Aoba’s mother, she was also his mother-in-law, so he turned his body towards her and bowed.
「It’s been a long time.」
「Are you okay, Taiyou? Has the summer been hard on you?」
「Not at all, and thank you for asking.」
「Well, that’s pleasant to hear.」
Because of this chance meeting with Nazuna, Taiyou thought of something.
Aoba’s other mother, one out of three, Miho Akita.
「That reminds me, how is Ms. Miho doing?」
「She’s in handcuffs.」
「What?!」
Taiyou doubted what he had heard. Taiyou had asked about her condition, but it seems the answer he got turned the conversation in a different direction.
Is this an apple? No, his name is Bob…almost like one of those weird unrelated conversations in his English textbook.
Unconsciously, you would think of her as a person that people gathered around…strange people, too.
「Miho was injured as well, last time she went to Juunishima.」
「Oh, yeah.」
The conversation was linked somehow, so Taiyou quickly nodded as a reply.
「She still hasn’t healed. She keeps saying that she wants to do chores and won’t listen, so she was shut in her room and handcuffed. I have the key so she can’t leave the room either, see?」
At that, she took out a small key to show Taiyou.
I see, Taiyou thought.
Saying that she wanted to do chores was just a line that Miho might use to get out.
She was the type that might do unreasonable things unless you tied her up.
「But having her like that, isn’t it hard when she has to do something, like use the bathroom and so on?」
「It’s taken care of.」
Nazuna put a hand on her cheek and smiled at him.
「I had her handcuffed to another person, so when the time comes, they can drink it from her.」
「So you’re into that type of weird stuff!」
He reacted to her loudly, so all the women around looked at him.
「What? Did you misunderstand something I said?」
「Whaa…」
「You’re saying that you don’t drink from Aoba?」
「No, no, no, no, no…」
