Chapter 89: Kouta and Ryohei go for a walk.

--Saturday Early Morning--

“Get up, and come with me for a moment.” 

It’s dad.  He’s shaken me awake, and I can see his eyes are bloodshot.  Did mom not let him sleep last night?

I rise off of Shi-chan’s lap pillow.  She didn’t move a bit last night.  She’s really a special woman to put up with that, I truly believe.  Dad heads to the door, and expects me to follow.  So we put on our shoes, and head outside.  Dad and I just walk for a bit, as I imagine he is gathering his thoughts.

We reach a bench in the park nearby when he finally sits down.  I take a seat next to him.  Dad lights up and takes a few calming drags before he even says a word.

“Kouta.  I thought you should hear it from me first.  There is a good chance your mother will ask me for a divorce tomorrow.”

… Are you sure?  She sure didn’t seem to think that… quite the opposite really.

“Will you be okay if that happens?” Dad asks with a bit of concern for me.

“Why would mom ask for one when she’s pregnant?” I ask dad what should be obvious to him.

“So you know already?”

“I found out yesterday.  Has she told you anything?”

“So did I.  Another daughter… You know, she never once mentioned it while she was overseas.” Dad says sullenly.

“Maybe she had a reason not to?”

“I can’t think of one good reason for her not to have told me.”

“How about the incident with Shi-chan?” I suggest with a heavy heart that I am always going to be reminded of it.

“Kouta!  … no.  You might be right about that actually… Did you tell your mother it was Shi-chan?”

“No.  But they were being real friendly and chatty yesterday from what I understand.  It wouldn’t surprise me if it came up, and she said something to mom.”

…

“Son.  I also have to confess something.  Shiho and I… the other day… we…”

I look at dad with wide eyes.

“Really?”

“Yeah.  It’s not good son.  I mentioned the possibility to her that Reiko might divorce me when she was over at the house complaining about something.  Oh yeah, since we were reintroduced at your housewarming party, we’ve been in contact, I should have mentioned that to you.  Anyway, … one thing led to another, and that led to us…”

“I’m not letting you Oyakodon with Shi-chan.” I say pre-emptively.

“Fucking hell Kouta!  I didn’t know, you and her… I… didn’t do anything that day. I swear!  It was only that one time. When your girlfriend tried that day, I pushed her away as quickly as I could.  Nothing happened that should matter, Kouta.  Nothing!  Can’t you trust your old man on this?  Trust her?  You left her in my room, naked.  She was… You fucked up on that, you have no reason to ever be mad at her for that.  She was so...”

…

“It’s alright.  I know what happened.  Kanae set that up.”

“Kanae?”

“Yeah.  She thought I might enjoy watching it happen again.  She was dead wrong.  I haven’t talked to her in a week.”

…

“Why would she do something like that?”

…

“For the same reason I saw it the first time.  That’s my bad habit it seems.  I see shit I shouldn’t.”

…

“Yeah, that’s true.  You used to peep on Kanae a lot when you were younger.”

“Eh?”

“Don’t ‘Eh?’ me.  Kouta.  You would stand there and beat your meat without a care in the world.  Shit, both your mom and I are well aware of it.”

How the hell…?

“Look, we just chalked it up to you being that age.  You never did anything to her, right?”

“...”

“Alright.  I won’t press it.  I probably don’t want to know. Our family is fucked up in all kinds of ways, Kouta. ”  

“Tell me about it…”

“So.  What do you want to happen?”

“Happen? About what?”

“With me and your mother… about the divorce.”

“... why do you two need to divorce?  Do you hate mom?”

“No.  I love her.  Even with all her faults, I love Reiko, son.”

“Then don’t divorce if there is a way.”

“That leads to the second problem then…”

“Which is…?”

“There is a chance I may have gotten Shiho pregnant.”

I throw my hands up in frustration and yell at this shitty old man.

“What the fuck!  You get her mom pregnant, Shi-chan is trying to get me to impregnate her because mom said to, mom’s already carrying a watermelon thanks to you…”

…

Dad reaches in his pocket and pulls out his pack, shaking it, a cigarette pops up and he offers it to me.

I look at him incredulously.

“No thanks.”

He shrugs, and puts the pack back in his pocket.

Taking another drag he becomes serious.

“Son.  I really believe everything would be over when you moved out with Kanae and the girl…  I can’t see Reiko and I still… being together.”

“What are you going to do?”

“I have no idea.  If Reiko doesn’t ask for a divorce… I was wondering if I should.  You see, Shiho wanted me to marry her if that happened.  But, I do still love your mother after all… I’m at a bit of a loss as to what to do.  I don’t have it easy like you.”

On second thought, I should have taken dad up on it.

“Then why not have mom capitulate a bit…?” I suggest, using my own experience as a platform to suggest something interesting.

“What do you mean?”

“Dad.  You know I’ve got another love alongside Shi-chan right?”

“Aa.  That cute girl.. Rurushi or something.”

“Yoragata Ruru.  Shi-chan calls her Ruru-chi.”

He nods.

“It’s… why not try it?  Be with mom and Shiho?”

“What in the world makes you think that is a good idea?” he blurts out.

“I never said it was a good idea.  Just that… Ruru comes from a family like that.  Her father has a wife and a mistress each with his children.  That’s why she was okay being together with Shi-chan and I.”

“It would never work, son.  Shiho wouldn’t ever accept being a mistress.”

“Then I don’t know what to say, dad.”

“I didn’t expect you to have any answers for me, Kouta.  I was just asking your feelings about the possibility of a divorce.”

“In the end, isn’t that something only you and mom can really discuss?  I don’t hate mom.  I hate what mom did to Kanae, and that she was gone so much from our lives… but I don’t hate mom.”

Dad nods, and stubs his cigarette out on the sidewalk in front of the bench.

“Let’s go back, Kouta.” he says as he gets up from the bench.  The morning air is crisp, and if I were a morning runner it would be perfect.

“Are you really alright dad?” I ask one last time.

“Reiko… she is definitely one of those succu-things you talk about.”

“A Succubus?” I now have the image of mom as a sex-demon.  It wouldn’t be the first time.  Is pregnant sex good at all I can’t help but wonder.

“Aa.”

“It’s the best though, isn’t it?” I imagine a swollen Shi-chan attacking me with abandon, waking up looking like I’m one step from a skeleton.

“Yeah.  Can’t say it’s anything but.”

Dad and I shared a bonding moment, which honestly I didn’t want to.  Dad is somehow dad again.  The anger I felt at him… went with me forgiving Shi-chan for Kanae’s misdeed.

We get home, and Mom is in the kitchen and… cooking?  Oh, Shi-chan is assisting her.  I was wondering… I can’t recall mom cooking, as it was always Kanae who did it.

“Welcome back my lovely men of the house.” Mom says with a beaming smile.  Shi-chan has one on too.

“We’ve got a lovely display for your no doubt hungry bellies.”

On the table is a full course breakfast.  It’s a bit western.  It’s pancakes with syrup and honey, milk, tea, eggs, sliced pork, and some kind of thin fried potatoes.

“Oh, this is like that restaurant we went to in Hawaii.”  Dad says with a bit of nostalgia.

“Yes dear, the Renny’s.”

“That takes me back.”

“Shi-chan is an absolute angel in the kitchen!  I just told her what to make from all the times I’ve eaten at these restaurants, and she was able to recreate them perfectly.”

“Thanks Mama!” Shi-chan says happily to my mother.

My mother responds by hugging my precious blossom, and I can’t help but wonder what world I’ve been Isekai’d into.

But I… don’t want to leave it.

It’s a stupid family breakfast with my no good mother, my shitty father, and the woman I love most in the whole world.  It’s not so bad, right?  When was even the last time I sat down with both mom and dad to a breakfast…?

“ “ Itadakimasu “ “

We all dig into the food.  It really is delicious.  Angel Nakada is actually quite adept at cooking food, especially if it’s for me.  Really, the only thing missing right now, barring Ruru, is Kanae.

She should be here… she should be in this surreal happiness too, but she isn’t.

“Ryohei, Kouta, Shi-chan.  Would you like to do something as a family today?” Mom asks us out of the blue as we eat.

“That would be nice, but I have work…” Dad trails off.

“Nonsense.  I already called your job and talked to your section head.  I let him know your beautiful wife had returned from overseas and was starving for attention, but that I would return you on Monday eager to work.  Naturally, he understood you needed the day off.”

Dad raised an eyebrow at that.

“Did you have something in mind already?” Dad asks with trepidation.

“Yes.  I want to do something fun with the family.  Maybe think of it like a double date too?”

Shi-chan perks up at the mention of that.  Are you really that excited?  No.  It’s Shi-chan.  She’s crazy for me, of course she’s excited.  There’s no doubt dad has any issues with her, and mom has taken to her quite easily.  It seems in fact mom already is considering her as a daughter.  

sigh

Mom details her plan for the day, and it actually seems like it could be a lot of fun.  There… is a questionable part in it, but… fuck it.  I’ve already been through some weird shit already.  I agree to it before either dad or shi-chan.

I want to know.  I want to know what mom thinks our family should be like with her here now.  Even this late in the game.

Mom and dad retire from breakfast and she says she’s going to doll herself and Shi-chan up.  Surprisingly, they have similar body types, so I can imagine mom’s wardrobe fitting her.  That leaves me on cleanup detail with dad.

“...son.  This is strange right?”

“Yeah, it’s really strange, but, it’s not bad, right?”

“Hmm.  Maybe it’s one last hurrah?”

No, dad.  I don’t think it is.

…

The conversation ends as quickly as it started.  Dad’s a hustler with dishes, so they are done in short order.  He goes to the living room and puts on a news show on the television.  I grab a cherry cola from the fridge, surprised there was any to be found in there.  I expected only beer or tea.  I’m almost always thirsty as of late.

Was it mom or Shiori who bought some for me?

I sit there absently watching the news.  I have no idea where my phone is.  I should ask Shi-chan about that.  Maybe it’s back at the apartment? Now that I think about it, Shi-chan had said I had broken Ruru’s phone?  I wonder why I would have done something like that?

I try and recall, but I can’t seem to recall much of Thursday at all.

It’s all a haze to me right now.

After what seems like a long time, Mom and Shiori exit the bedroom.  Who is this goddess?

Shiori is wearing something unlike her usual gyaru clothing.  This is casual wear, sure but it’s very… adult-like.  Not in the erotic way, but, it makes Shi-chan seem like an adult.  She’s wearing a long grey skirt that only leaves a small area above her ankles exposed.  She’s got a whit v-neck that goes down to the skirt, leaving no skin exposed except her shoulders which have no sleeves. Those shoulders are covered by a black shawl which covers her shoulders down to just above her elbows, and reaches down to her breasts in the front.  I can see no part of her that doesn’t look proper.  She has makeup on, and her usual pink lips are a vibrant red.  Those kinds of lips made to make a man desire to kiss them.  Her hair isn’t up in a ponytail.  Her red ribbon is gone.  Her hair is down, completely, and has been combed.  It looks so soft, I want to trace my fingers through it.

Mom also is dressed similarly.  Her clothing is blue and tan, and her hair which I’ve always seen up in a bun, is also down.  Mom shows no sign of that business-professional woman.  She looks like a housewife out on a long overdue casual date.  Both of them are wearing sandals, and mom… I’m saying this without it being anything weird… but mom is hot.

Dad… was this the mom you fell in love with?

“Our first stop should be somewhere fun.”  Mom says with enthusiasm

“Leave it to me.” Shi-chan says. “Shibuya has so many fun things.”

Mom gives Shi-chan a squeeze, and I had a horribly dirty thought just then.

NO.

No. No. No.  Get out of my head.  Shoo, fly away!

“Shall we take the car?” Mom asks, keys jingling in hand.

“No, let’s go by train, it’s only two stops away.”

“Alright.  Are you ready my lovely men?”

…

Dad and I look at each other.

We share the same thought.

‘It can’t be helped.’

(Secret 70:  Kouta despite finding Akiba his favorite outing location, enjoys seeing how normal people have fun in social places such as Shibuya.  He’s secretly enjoying the idea of going on a date there with her, and being a lovey-dovey couple, even if Mom and Dad are also accompanying him and Shiori.)
