Chapter 2490 A New Week

Chapter 2490 A New Week

With three girls waiting for me in the bed, our night was extended until two or three in the morning.

I couldn't recall clearly anymore since I also ended up exhausted, falling asleep at the same time as the last girl to doze off from exhaustion.

When morning came, after dealing with the side effects of the miraculous tea, we went for a morning jog and stopped by the bakery to pick up freshly baked bread for our breakfast.

“Hooo! Good thing the rain didn’t continue throughout the night. But it’s too cold! Husband, carry me on your back!” Akane said as she twirled around while hugging her arms.

Looking at her obviously faking it, I flicked her forehead before checking on the other two only to find them about to ask for the same thing.

These girls...

“I'd love to carry the three of you but how would we move?” I wryly smile before giving Sena and Ayu a flick on their foreheads as well.

Because of that, the bakery owner looked at us weirdly. And perhaps recognizing from before, she also frowned because I was with a different girl this time.

I acted oblivious and paid for the bread before bringing the three women outside the store and jogging back to our house.

We had a lively breakfast after working out and had a quick shower before preparing for the day ahead.

Since there's another rainfall warning, Miwa-nee reminded us of our umbrella.

Ayu offered to drive us to school but because we're going to commute and meet up with Eimi, Fuyu and the others on the way there, we declined.

In the end, Ayu decided to extend her stay in the house, stating she's gonna spend her day off helping out Miwa-nee.

Well, that's not a bad idea. They can bond while taking care of Minoru. I wonder. Maybe Miwa-nee can teach her a thing or two when it comes to being a housewife. In return, Ayu will make a workout routine for Miwa-nee. With her limited time, her regular workout was mostly done when in bed with her.

Right. She tends to get on top of me to work out her sweat. And somehow, it's extremely effective.

“... I'll start with Eimi-chan then. And slowly get to know everyone.”

“Alright. But like I said, Nee-san, don't stress yourself out with it. Just know this, I love all of you. Equally. If there's someone that needs to be responsible for everything. It'll be me.”

“Ugh. If you put it that way, I'll just feel bad. Forget it. I'll take my time understanding everything. If I feel bad, I'll nag at you, okay?”

“Sure. I'll hear you out.”

Anzu-nee nodded at that before smiling beautifully. If she was in front of me, that would be enough to tempt me into kissing her.

After bidding us take care, we ended the video call and boarded the train.

On the next station, Fuyu joined us.

The girl looked like she rushed to catch the train so as soon as I saw her looking exhausted, I stood up and caught her before giving her my seat.

Sure enough, she admitted running from her house to the station just to catch up to us.

I scolded her with a flick on her forehead before squatting down in front of her, wiping her sweat as she began perspiring after such a rush.

On the next station, Eri and Futaba joined us. My self-proclaimed best friend laughingly latched herself on my back when she saw me still squatting in front of the girls.

Futaba, on the other hand, was still exuding the same awkwardness as last time. At the very least, she's trying her hardest not to show it on her face but it was impossible to miss when her eyes kept wandering towards me.

And as much as I wanted to say something to her, I knew it would just make the situation more awkward so I focused on playing along with Eri and continuing to tend to my girls.

With this, our Monday morning commute smoothly progressed.

And what followed was the same routine of meeting up with my girls before continuing to our school.

The day would definitely be long again. But I couldn't deny the underlying excitement waiting for me to uncover.

A new week that will be full of challenges, days that are going to be so busy I will probably forget some things because of how many are running in my head. Nonetheless, it's more important to understand that it's also a new week with my girls. Nothing is going to top that as my motivation to hustle and continue building our foundation.
