The Case of Being Loved by a Heartbroken Older Woman Next Door After Saving Her

Chapter 31 – I Want to Love You More

“The coffee here is good.”

“Yes, it is. It’s very tasty.”

Now, I am facing a difficult situation.

I’m in a coffee shop, and in front of me is a man with a massive body. He is taller than me and his face is a little stern… But his voice is soft and his atmosphere is gentle, which is too exquisite a gap.

“I’m glad to see you like this, Chinatsu-kun.”

“It’s my pleasure… Um, Kenji-san.”

Saiki Kenji-san, that’s this man’s name.

As you can tell from the surname… This man is Madoka-san’s father. We met by chance and he was waiting in front of my flat.

“Nice to meet you, sorry for the abruptness.”

When this man in a suit came to talk to me, I was so surprised. I thought I might have unwittingly meddled in something dangerous… I think I was scared to death.

However, it was soon revealed that he was Madoka-san’s father, and I was immediately reassured, but…

“……?”

My phone shook, so I looked at the screen and saw a message from Madoka-san asking when I was coming home. Normally I would have returned home by this time, and I could tell from the message that she was feeling lonely.

“Is it Madoka?”

“Yes. She was wondering when I’m coming back.”

“Haha, you really are loved by my daughter.”

“…I’m sorry.”

I was a bit embarrassed and looked down.

Now, why did he come at this time? …Probably, it’s about me and Madoka-san’s cohabitation. My father gave me permission on the condition that I don’t neglect my studies, but I haven’t heard Kenji-san’s opinion on the matter yet.

“Well, it’s not up to me. Please be there for Madoka, and if that’s what she wants, then my wife and I will respect that.”

“…Thank you very much!”

“However…”

Kenji-san then held up a finger.

“Don’t neglect your own schoolwork, it’s no good not being able to focus on your studies while spending time with Madoka.”

“I understand.”

I’m chewing on the happiness of being able to live with Madoka, but I’m not going to neglect the things I have to do.

“Well, that girl, too, for that matter, but I don’t think I’m particularly worried about that. Mafuyu was the same way, but she probably won’t compromise to get what she really wants.”

“I see… Hmm?”

I know what that phrase means, but what does it mean that Mafuyu did the same? At that moment I remembered what Madoka had said.

“Dad’s a bit of a sucker for mom, too.”

…So this is what she meant?

Kenji-san has a bigger and more splendid body than me, but when I imagine him being pressed by Mafuyu-san, who has that small body but exudes more s*x appeal than an ordinary woman… Yeah, it’s kinda funny.

“Well… Perhaps, from Mafuyu-san, Kenji-san, too, receives… Um…”

“A lovey-dovey attack?”

“Yes…?”

Funny, it’s as if a katakana that is not quite right from Kenji-san just now jumped out at me…

Kenji-san drank his coffee and talked to me, despite my bewilderment or not.

“I think I was surprised too, to be honest. I met Mafuyu when I was in a university club… We had a drinking session and I cared for her at that time.”

“Heh…”

“That’s all. That’s all it took for her to like me and start talking to me a lot. No, I think that was more flirting than talking with me.”

“…Oh.”

“The excessive body touching increased with each passing day, and she would smile at my shyness every time she saw me. When you’re a university student, you’re like an adult. What do you think Mafuyu said to me in the middle of all this?”

“What did she say…?”

Oh man, I love hearing stories like this.

I asked as I leaned forward and Kenji-san nodded. He gave me a troubled smile and told me,

“‘I’m going to spoil you,’ she said. With that crackling, seductive smile.”

“…Ah~”

I see, Madoka-san is Mafuyu-san’s daughter after all.

I was given a rough idea of how they got together, but Kenji-san didn’t tell me anything more than that. I wasn’t sure if I should ask him about this or not… But I decided to take the plunge and ask.

“Kenji-san… Do you get spoiled by Mafuyu-san?”

“…Well sometimes. I’m a husband and it’s not strange that I need my wife to take care of me after a hard day’s work.”

“I see. Well… I was made to play baby and–”

“Goho! Goho!”

“…I’m sorry.”

“No, apparently you’re a friend of mine.”

We took each other’s hands in a firm handshake. I can’t help but feel that a strange friendship has developed here and now, and I’m really glad I got to know Kenji-san. After that, we talked a lot about each other’s partners.

“…Seems like I’ve forgotten about something.”

“You mean Madoka?”

“Ah…”

Ah, right, I haven’t even replied to Madoka-san!

I immediately took out my phone and tried to send a message, but… I had received a huge amount of messages from Madoka-san.

“Excuse me, I’ll make a call for a bit.”

“Yeah.”

When I called, Madoka-san immediately answered.

[Chinatsu-kun, where are you now?]

“……”

Her voice was quite dark and trembling so much that I thought Madoka-san might be crying. I explained to her exactly what I was doing, and she immediately cheered up.

[I see, then everything is Dad’s fault… I understand. That’s where Dad is now, isn’t he?]

“Yes, he’s here.”

[Can you put me on speaker?]

As it was a coffee shop, the sound was adjusted so that only Kenji-san could hear.

“…Madoka?”

[I hate you.]

“……!?”

Ah, his strong face is distorted with sadness…

Madoka-san’s dislike of me now is quite serious pressure. It might definitely come to my mind to the extent that I would want to die if I were told that myself.

[…I’m sorry, Dad, I’m only joking. It’s not that I wanted to see you, It’s not just that you wanted to see Chinatsu-kun, but you’re very worried about me too, aren’t you?]

“M-Madoka!”

[Ah, seriously, don’t cry! Go home quickly and let Mom comfort you.]

“…I will.”

“……”

I don’t know where to begin.

We promised to talk again, including Madoka-san, and then Kenji-san and I parted ways. I went to the apartment right away, and the moment I entered the room, I was attacked in the face by her b***s.

“Wop!”

“Chi~nat~su~kun♪”

Because of the delay and the time I had to wait, Madoka-san hugged me even more strongly than usual. Moreover, it seems that she has recently learned the best way to hug me so that I don’t suffer when she does this… It wasn’t painful at all.

“I didn’t think you’d met Dad. But I see, Dad approved.”

“…Yes. It’s a ton of progress and a bit scary.”

“Really? On the contrary, it proves that there is no one who can prevent us from loving each other.”

“That’s one way of thinking about this.”

“Mm-hmm♪”

…Well, now that we’ve done all the preparations.

I must make a new resolution. To walk with this precious person forever… No, I had already made this decision.

“Madoka-san.”

“What?”

“I want to be by your side for a long time to come. Please take care of me.”

“…Yes♪”

She kissed me on the lips and hugged me again.

Many things have happened in a short period of time since I met Madoka-san, but I think they have all moved in the right direction for me. I hope I can be by her side more and more in the future… I also want to love her as much as she loves me.
