Besides, Reiji's mother passed away when Reiji was still a child.
Or is it purely curiosity about a woman's body?
My thoughts drifted to strange questions.
Should I let Reiji touch my chest again?
But... would Reiji even want to?
After all, my body is no longer what it used to be.
I have given birth to two daughters, and perhaps my chest is no longer as attractive as it was in my youth.
Yet, for some reason, I felt a strange warmth in my chest when thinking about it.
Does Reiji really like my chest?
Finally, in a much softer tone, I opened my mouth again, "So, do you want to feel it again?"
Reiji seemed to freeze in place, blinking a few times as if trying to process what he had just heard.
Reiji's confusion was evident, making my smile widen even more.
"I asked, do you want to feel it again?" I asked, this time in a casual tone, accompanied by a subtle smile full of meaning.
"Eh?" Reiji finally spoke, sounding more like a gasp than clear words.
Reiji's face was now flushed, and his expression was a mix of surprise and embarrassment.
"Do you want to hold my chest again?" I added, this time with a slightly teasing tone, curious about how far Reiji's courage would go.
"Is... is that allowed?" Reiji's voice was barely audible, as if he himself couldn't believe he had asked that question.
Hearing that response, I let out a small laugh, trying to hide the nervousness that was starting to rise within me.
"Of course," I replied gently, my smile softening. "Go ahead."
Reiji stared at me for a moment, perhaps making sure he wasn't dreaming.
Slowly, Reiji stepped closer, his movements awkward yet careful.
For some reason, I felt my heart racing uncontrollably.
As Reiji's small hand reached out, I felt a gentle touch on my chest.
The touch made me pause for a moment, the world around us seemed to fade away, leaving just the two of us in that moment.
Reiji looked at me with a naive expression mixed with curiosity, while his hand slowly squeezed my chest carefully.
I unconsciously held my breath; Reiji's innocent gaze made my chest feel warm, a mix of tingling and... nostalgia?
A small smile formed on my face, but before the atmosphere could further blur the boundaries that should exist, I took a deep breath and quickly stopped Reiji.
I swiftly grasped Reiji's hand, lifting it away from my body.
"That's enough," I said firmly, though still trying to maintain softness in my voice.
Reiji looked confused, his eyes reflecting a clear sense of guilt.
Reiji lowered his head, perhaps afraid he had crossed a line.
I looked at Reiji, trying to regain my composure.
I'm sorry, Reiji, but I can't let myself get carried away any further.
There are boundaries I must maintain... for the sake of my love and loyalty to my husband.
I looked at Reiji, who stood there with confusion on his face; his expression made me smile a little, even though my heart was still filled with guilt.
I promised myself that I would always care for and show affection to Reiji like a mother.
However... I cannot allow myself to be swept away by feelings or desires that should not be.
"Uh... May I know why you let me do that, Aunt?" Reiji asked softly, his eyes avoiding mine.
Reiji's question made me pause for a moment.
I took a slow breath, then leaned my face closer to Reiji, just enough to clearly see the awkwardness in his eyes.
"You don't need to know," I replied in a low voice, my eyes staring sharply at Reiji, though there was a sense of anxiety that was hard to hide.
"However... does it make you feel happier?"
Reiji looked surprised by my question.
Reiji tried to smile, though his smile appeared awkward.
