Stealing Spree

Chapter 81: The Story Continues

"Loverboy, good morning."

Akane's face greeted me first thing in the morning.

Loverboy? This girl…

"What time is it, wife?"

"Muu. Don't just brush that off. I thought a lot to confuse you this early in the morning."

"It's true so I didn't react. I love you, silly girl."

Faced with my counterattack, she got flustered and hit me with her pillow.

Eh? Why are you turning violent?

"You're bullying me again."

"How is that bullying?"

"Shut up! I love you too, idiot husband!"

"Come give me a kiss."

Feeling wronged, she eventually gave up and kissed me like I asked.

It's not a dream or anything. Last night, I really remembered my forgotten feelings for her. Now I'm sure. This is real. Just listening to the beating of my heart.

I love Akane. I love that silly girl so much. It didn't just sprout from nowhere.

Since the first day I saw her.

We're still probably a toddler back then.

It's unbelievable, yes.

But it's like I was born to love her. And it's the same for her.

If that really continued, we'll eventually end up together and make our own family.

Miwa-nee ruined it. Ah. I shouldn't blame her. Besides, it's not proven that the reason was really that night.

Her confession made me remember. And I'm truly thankful for that.

Now that I remember that emotion, I know I will also start feeling it to those girls who are faithfully in love with me.

And then there are those things that I should realize. Maybe I already did but I want to see them first.

Akane told me that since I remembered that forgotten emotion, I will start realizing things on my own even without her help.

She's right and it might hurt her again, helping me to realize that I love girls other than her? She might be willing before. Maybe that is also her way of spoiling me.

Satsuki, she told me to be honest. I guess I'm not really honest with her. I can now say in all honesty that I don't want her to date Sakuma. She's mine. I don't want to see her with another guy, even if that is her wish. Ah.

I'll give her the final decision but I'll tell her honestly what I think. This is probably what she wanted to hear yesterday and I'm dumb enough to lie like I'm happy that her wish will finally be granted.

Akane pulled me up from our bed. Even if we did four rounds last night, Akane is still this energetic. Is this the power of love? Err…

She woke me up right after she finished making our breakfast. I guess we have to skip exercising for today. I'll make it up for it later at night.

Miwa-nee and Minoru were already at the table waiting for us.

Nothing happened between her and Akane, right?

I hope so.

Miwa-nee couldn't look at me straight but she still tried to act normally.

I stopped what we're doing last night because of Akane, I wonder what she thinks about that? I still want Miwa-nee. Like I said to her, I will make time for the two of us.

"Miwa-nee, thank you."

"Huh? What are you thanking me for?"

Miwa-nee was startled when I suddenly said that.

"I also want to thank you, Miwa-nee."

"You too, Akane? What happened?"

And then Akane followed through, which made her more confused.

"Thanks to you, I remembered."

"What? What did you remember? I'm confused. I thought Akane would hate me now."

Right. She's still thinking about that. She really felt guilty about the manifestation of my desire. How can I ease her mind about it?

"M-mama. Why will Aka-nee hate you? Did you fight?"

Minoru hearing our exchanges asked Miwa-nee innocently.

"No Minoru, they don't fight and Akane doesn't hate her."

I answered in place of Miwa-nee. She's still confused. I'll let her think for now.

"Is that so Ru-nii? Then good. I'm happy."

This boy. He really brightens this house. His cuteness cleared up the awkward air.

"To think that we will be defeated by a boy."

Miwa-nee who finally got out of her confusion said, she then wiped the chocolate syrup on Minoru's mouth.

"As I thought, I want a child like Minoru, husband."

Akane looked at Minoru smilingly like she's imagining what our child will look like.

"I told you, we will in the future. Miwa-nee, I remembered that I love Akane. I love her so much. That's what we're thanking you for."

I hushed Akane first before turning to Miwa-nee to tell her what we were thanking her for.

When she heard that, she somehow looked disappointed for a second but it soon changed to her smiling brightly.

That didn't escape my notice. She remembered her feelings for me as well and now it hangs on her head.

"Really? I'm happy for you two."

"Miwa-nee. You don't have to act like that. Please be honest."

Akane noticed it too and pointed it out to her.

"W-what are you talking about? Hurry up and finish eating. You two will be late."

In the end, she chose to dodge it.

Akane looked at me.

Well, she knows I still want Miwa-nee and only I can make this beautiful aunt of mine to be honest.

After eating breakfast, we immediately prepared for school. Well, I woke up later than usual, so if I stay longer, I will arrive late.

We only did another round in the bath and it's even at the same time as we wash away the soap.

No matter how many times, I won't get tired of Akane's body.

Err. Among all my girls, she's the one getting it more than anyone.

Well, I'm filling up all the years I neglected her.

We now mutually love each other. It made her bloom more beautifully. The fact that I remembered my love for her proved to be a positive influence.

We will have that date this Saturday, I already called a hotel where we will stay and made a reservation, we were minors so I called Dad for authorization.

I actually wants to talk to the two of them.

What Miwa-nee said about our future bugs me but I guess, they're still busy with their work.

I still can't decide on which restaurant to dine in though. Maybe somewhere near the Theater or the Hotel. I'll think about it before the date.

During the train ride, I opened my phone. Well, after all that happened, only now did I have the time to check it.

Otsuka-senpai's mail was sent yesterday and maybe she's patiently waiting for my reply. I still don't want to include her. Maybe after I'm done with my current targets? Ishida-senpai is different though. I at least want to help Kana. But not knowing the real situation is a bit…

Well, Otsuka-senpai will provide that information soon. I told her to ask me questions and I gave her a bonus so the contents of her mail will surely be at least two questions from her.

"I see. Then Onoda-kun, why is Kana-senpai cheating with you on Goto-senpai? Do you love Kana-senpai? I'm curious. I know her, she's shy most of the time but to think she will easily cheat. Did something happen between you two?"

Oi. That's three Otsuka-senpai. Haa. I guess I'll answer it. I'll just ask her the same amount of questions.

"Well, Kana is mine now, not Goto-senpai's. I don't know if I love her, for now but I guess I like her already. And for your last question, she met me and I made her mine. That's what happened. If you're satisfied with these answers, it will be my turn to ask you next."

I answered honestly but will she believe it? I don't know. Well, let's see. It's getting tedious talking to her here. She will just get delayed. I need to talk to her in person, that's when I will ask my questions.

Opening Messenger next, there's a ton of message requests. Ah. These are from all those girls from the group. I told Haruko to tell them that I will respond in messenger. I guess I'll go through them all. I need to assure them, these girls are all waiting patiently.

When I opened the list, Fujii's name was the first one listed. Right, we will set up our meeting through here.

Next were from Sena and Otoha. Those two… they will come with Haruko.

Then others are names I recognized. Yes, they're all girls from my middle school who I stole before. Currently, there are 6. I don't know if it will increase.

I first responded to those 6. It's a short message for now. Telling them not to worry and that I didn't forget about them.

Then Sena and Otoha. These two… will they have time? Sena is an amateur boxer, she probably joined the boxing club again. While Otoha, despite her having trouble talking to other people, she's an outgoing person, she practices Kendo. And most possibly like Sena, she joined their school's Kendo Club.

They're a bit harder to steal before but I still succeeded. To think that they still want to be mine. Haa. I'll deal with them soon.

I sent them a greeting which both immediately replied happily. It's like they're waiting for my reply all this time.

I then replied to Fujii, telling her she got the right account. She asked if it's me. Doubting if this is my real messenger or not. Well, for proof I told her that I still want to steal her.

After I closed the message request, I saw that Nikaido also sent me a message, well she's just doing idle talks which I keep responding to. She doesn't want to fade away from my memory. This girl. Their house is located in the same neighborhood, maybe I'll see her again soon.

Then Yae, Aoi and Ria are keeping me updated through their messages. I responded to them to make them happy, they all replied fast.

What are these girls doing this early in the morning? Are they always waiting for my reply?

Ah. I want to see them soon.

Then next, there's Harada. She's greeting me again and there seem to be messages from her yesterday, after the PE class. How to deal with this girl, I wonder?

Until now I can't keep up with her thought process.

"Yo Onoda. Morning! Ya didn't reply yesterday. You busy?"

"Morning Chii. You're this energetic again. I didn't have time to check my phone yesterday."

Like yesterday, she replied almost immediately. She's probably on the train like me as well.

"Ah. Right. You were with that glasses-chan from Class 4. Did you make her yours?"

"What are you talking about?"

This girl. Is she like Nami, an observer? No. She's just blurting out what comes in her mind.

"It's a joke! This guy, have a sense of humor, will ya?"

"So what is it this time?"

I guess I'm right. Haa. This girl just wanted to bug me, right?

"Nah. I'm still super interested in you, especially yesterday. You were kind of cool. And you seem to have an atmosphere with those two."

"What atmosphere?"

Eh? Now I'm doubting again. She noticed that. Our interactions weren't that obvious, right? Or this girl is just this sharp?

"Come on. Onoda. We're totally friends, right? Who do you like from them? Maemura or Andou?"

"They're both mine."

If I said it like this, she won't believe it. Like how Sakuma couldn't believe when I talked about the chat group vaguely.

"What the hell Onoda?! That cracked me up. So you have a sense of humor. Right. You're bold, wanting two golden swans. What about me?"

"What about you? Do you want to pit me against Fukuda?"

Of course, I want her to be mine as well. Err. Here I am again, just after remembering my love for Akane, I'm back at entertaining my targets. Haa. This desire.

"Nah. Don't talk about that guy. I don't have that intention. You just totally caught my interest. Hey, can we meet alone?"

"What? Why? Do you perhaps, like me?"

She kept saying she's interested. What part of me did she take interest in?

"No. I just want to talk to you."

"I don't follow. We're not close at all, so why me?"

"I told you, I'm interested in you."

"I don't know. It's too troublesome to deal with your group."

This is a chance to get a hold on her. But there's still the risk of me being baited to a trap. Will she do that to me? Does she have a grudge? Or is she being compelled by someone?

No. That's unlikely. The first time she noticed me was on that train on the way home. I guess I just need to prepare for any scenario that might happen. I doubt Harada wants to do me harm.

"Let's meet somewhere they won't know."

"Okay. Make it next week."

I want to relax for a few days. There's still that thing with Nami, if Ogawa suddenly confessed, our plan will start so this thing with Harada or Chii will have to wait until next week.

"Alright. Thanks, Onoda."

"That's new. You can say thanks? And the way you talk changed."

Right. It somehow became gentle? Not like her gyaru personality who's always energetic.

"Shut up. I'll tell you next week. See ya Onoda."

There. It's back to that. Ah. Well, there's no use guessing for now.

I turned off my phone after that. The train will soon arrive at my destination.

I don't want to comment about the day again. I might jinx it like yesterday.

I miss my Akane already. That silly girl.

The story continues. Even if I remembered my love for Akane. This desire doesn't show any signs of stopping.
