Many days passed after the school trip, and everyone had returned to Tokyo and continued with their lives from going to school, studying, trying to work hard for their dream, and flirting with him.
Before they noticed, winter also came.
Misaki was relatively lax since she had been accepted to the university, so she just needed to wait until her graduation. As for which university she had gone to, without a doubt, it was Suimei University.
If it was before, it might be okay for her to leave for Tokyo, but now, it is better for her to choose Suimei University.
For one thing, he owned this university, and when he became a university student, she would be in the third year, so her time was quite lax, which meant she could visit him, who would go to Kyoto anytime.
Yes, he had decided to choose Kyoto University.
It was the same with his other women.
Tokyo was good, but going to Kyoto was better for his future.
Still, it would take two years before he graduated, and it was better to enjoy high school time even more.
High school was a rare time for one to enjoy life.
"Shishio-sama, here is your orange. I have peeled it for you."
"Thanks."
Shishio took the orange, which was peeled by Roberta absentmindedly.
As of now, they were resting on their kotatsu in his apartment while eating an orange. He wasn't sure, but usually, the people in this country ate an orange during the winter.
As for the kotatsu, while his apartment had a warmer, everyone felt it was strange if they didn't lay on the kotatsu, which was a warming table usually used during the winter or cold days.
Shishio remembered when he came to Tokyo for the first time and entered Chihiro's room; he saw a kotatsu inside her room. When he thought about that memory, he felt weird when he thought that they were together now.
Yet, why?
Why couldn't he erase his thought of Chihiro's expression during the last day of his school trip?
A few months had passed since the school trip, and everything was great. His relationship with his women was good, even if sometimes, they had few conflicts, but a conflict was a good spice in their lives.
Having an easy and calm relationship might be everyone's wish, but sometimes, a small conflict is necessary.
It was like how one's muscles became painful when one worked out, which was a process for a muscle to become stronger. The relationship was like that. When they were tested on something, and they were able to pass that conflict, their relationship would be even stronger.
Naturally, such a conflict couldn't be too much, and it needed a certain limit, or else everything would fall apart, like how one's body would break when they were overworked.
However, while he could solve the problems of the others, he just wasn't sure what to do with Chihiro.
Sometimes, he hated how accurate his intuition was since he could tell when they were having sex that day; even if she was so obscene and kept asking him, he felt she was crying, yet she tried to hide all of that by numbing her mind with pleasure.
Yet, even if his intuition had always been mostly correct, he just couldn't tell what the problem was between them.
As of now, everything has been going on for the past few months, and while it never really changed between them except for her to keep asking him to have sex with her for many days until she was exhausted, he just couldn't pinpoint where the problem was.
There was no doubt that she loved him; she loved him so much that she kept asking him to pound her whenever they could, which made him feel confused.
However, he couldn't deny that it was fun.
It was fun, yet he couldn't erase the restless feeling in his heart.
"Shishio-sama?"
"Oh."
He looked at Roberta, who was looking at him with concern.
Unlike her usual maid uniform, Roberta wore a black turtle neck sweater and navy jeans pants. Even if she still kept her usual appearance by tying her hair in braids and wearing thick glasses, she was so sexy.
The silhouette of her figure and the shape of her hips were perfectly shown under those garments. The sweater was one thing, but those jeans pants perfectly showed the charm of her lower body.
More importantly, her bare feet had been rubbing his nether region.
He looked at his erection and let out a long sigh. He wondered why even if he was worried about Chihiro, his penis was still thinking about something dirty. It was amazing, but it was also detestable.
Yet, as a man, it was something normal.
Roberta was an attractive woman, and it would be weird if he didn't show a reaction.
He might be thinking about Chihiro, but even so, he couldn't forget about the others. After all, he had decided to make a harem. Naturally, he couldn't show favoritism, yet as he had said before, he was a normal human, and it was impossible for him to stay fair all the time.
Sometimes, his women would give her more than him.
Yet, that's what love is, right?
It is impossible for two people to be fair, and one has to give more than the other.
In his case, did he happen to give less or more? He wasn't sure, but except to go on a date, flirt, make them smile, and feel good about sex, he didn't do much.
As for his women, they would usually take the initiative to help him, even if it was just a small matter, such as cooking, cleaning, and some other matter, such as comforting him when he was exhausted.
With that said, it was similar to what Roberta did now.
He took a piece of orange, which was peeled by Roberta, took the white part, and took the seeds before he fed it to her. "Open your mouth."
"Shishio-sama..."
"Open your mouth."
She blushed but obediently opened her red, moist lips, letting him feed her.
"Is it good?"
"Un." She nodded. "It's sweet and sour." She took a piece of her orange and clumsily took out the white part and seeds, but it had become a mess, making her sigh since she knew she wasn't good at house chores. The best thing she could do was peel the orange peel, and it was impossible for her to do delicate work, such as peeling the white part of the orange.
"Feed me that."
"But..."
"Roberta."
She was helpless, but she fed him the orange, which she almost crushed to bit. Then, as she fed him, she blushed once again when his tongue licked her slender fingers, which were covered by orange juice.
"Is-Is it good...?"
His tongue caused her body to shiver from the thrill.
As she could feel his eyes on her, she heard his deep voice.
"Delicious."
"....."
She wanted to bring him to the room now, but he acted like nothing had happened, teasing her like she was a cat that was teased with a catnip. When the master was bored, he would stop, but the cat was begging by scratching his feet in a pampering manner with her paws.
He only glanced at her before he moved his foot like a snake as he opened her zipper skilfully.
"..." Roberta.
However, before she could even react, his thumb was moving in a manner that should be impossible to do by foot. It felt so good, but as a qualified maid, she couldn't show a shameful appearance during such a time, so in the end, she could endure it by muffling her mouth as she lowered her head.
"Shishio?"
"Did you just wake up?"
He lowered his head and looked at Shiina, who was sleeping beside him. She had slept on his thigh before, but he moved her to the pillow. Still, he could tell she hadn't fully awoken since she didn't open her eyes when she called him.
While he was teasing Roberta, he took an orange that he had peeled before he fed it to Shiina.
Feeling something in front of her lips, Shiina opened her cute mouth and licked the orange before she took a small bite and chewed it lightly. When she was done, she opened her mouth again, asking him to feed her.
The winter made everyone sluggish, and most of them were resting.
However, if they knew what he was thinking, they would roll their eyes since it was his fault since he had made them so drowsy during the day.
"Shishio."
"Hmm?"
"Chihiro hasn't gone back?"
"...yes."
"Where is she?"
"The school has said that she is on a business trip."
"Oh."
He didn't want to think weirdly, but he could tell that Chihiro was trying to part away from him, especially when they were quite intense last night before she left him for a business trip.
He had never thought too much about this, and he also wasn't someone who would doubt his woman, especially when he knew he had conquered her body and heart.
Instead of having insecurity, he spent his time with other women and trusted her.
The only problem was he wondered what Chihiro planned to do since he felt that she had been quite suspicious for a while. He wasn't stupid and could tell while the business trip was real, she was still hiding something from him.
'What is she planning to do?'
He didn't check what she was doing, and he also didn't ask what she was doing, even if he knew that she planned to do something. For one, he trusted her, and he wanted to solve all the problems in Chihiro's heart immediately, reaching a truly happy ending.
Many might say that their relationship was impossible, but for him, he didn't think that it was impossible.
It had been a week, so he thought to solve this problem, but suddenly he received a text from his father.
Father: "Go back to Kyoto. I have something to talk about with you."
Shishio furrowed his brows and wondered what his father wanted to do with him.
