134 Vol. 3 pt. 4 Patch 1.0: The Latest Addition (2/2)

Ryouta closes his blinds.

”Thank you for telling me I need to always keep my blinds closed. I never considered anybody looking in here from over there,” he explains.

”It's okay! I don't need to collect information on you from there anymore now that I'm here with you!” Aiko says.

While Ryouta may be the one with the browsing history full of hentai that Serra is still scrolling through, Aiko is the one being judged by Cassandra, Alice, and Ryouta.

Aiko, immune to their judging stares, changes the subject. ”By the way, what's that game you all play again? Fantasy Something Something?” she asks.

”Fantasy Tales Online, yeah. Why?” Ryouta asks back.

”Because I want to play! It's not fair that everybody else gets to play with you while I don't! But… if you're playing that game and in bed while playing it… I could play with your real body while you play around in the game.”

”I'll call the police on you,” Cassandra tells her.

”It's alright, the headsets come with the game and they're pretty cheap right now. There's a half-off sale, I think,” Ryouta explains.

”Oh! Is it that game that's been in the news lately? Some countries wanting to ban it or something?” Aiko asks.

”That's in the news again? I remember some countries getting pretty upset with it at first, but I thought they were done talking about. But yeah, this is probably the game they were talking about.”

Aiko pulls out her phone, taps away for about thirty seconds, and then shoves it back into her pocket. ”Alright! I ordered one of the headsets. It'll be delivered here in a couple of days!” she explains.

”Here? Why didn't you have it sent to your home?”

”You're so silly, Ry-ou-ta! This is my home now. I already broke my lease and used the rest of my money to hire a moving van to bring all my stuff over! It should be here in a couple of hours.”

”When – when did you do that?”

”A couple of hours ago!”

Serra, Cassandra, Alice, and now Aiko… are all going to be staying with him?

There is no way that this place is large enough for them all, plus there is the fact that he won't be able to afford those insane expenses. His bed is only big enough for three people at most, his couch is only big enough for one person to sleep on, and there is nowhere else to sleep. So, if his girlfriends share his bed and Aiko has the couch, that leaves him with either the floor or the bathtub.

”You can't just completely change your life and move in just like that!” Cassandra scolds Aiko.

”Why not? I saw you bring some of your own stuff, so aren't you doing the same?” Aiko asks.

”That's different! I still have my apartment and most of my stuff there! I'm just staying over for a while since Alice is.”

”And I'm just staying over forever because Ryouta is!”

”You—”

”Alright, alright. It's alright. Aiko can have the couch until we figure out something better for her,” Ryouta interjects.

”Yay! See? I knew Ryouta would want me staying here!” Aiko cheers and clings onto him.

Cassandra looks ready to shout again but turns around when she hears Serra giggling.

Everybody looks over at what's on the computer screen.

Oh.

Oh no.

The worst possible thing that could happen is currently happening.

There is truly no situation worse than this.

Serra found the folder of his old attempts at drawing hentai.
