Stealing Spree
463 The Girl who likes me
Much like how I ignored everything Akane was doing for me before, I also did the same to those not related to my desire. Although I could possibly recognize most of my former classmates’ faces, I wouldn’t be able to remember any single thing about them. And that’s the same for Eimi.
With my book that I never really thought of getting back from her and the photo that I didn’t ever recall being taken appearing here in her room… Eimi developed feelings for me even if I didn’t do anything for her.
Technically, I did something for her, but that’s not enough for someone to like a guy, right?
When I first met her again at the Supermarket, she instantly recognized me and perhaps she intentionally let me hear about the guy she ‘liked’ to try and build her image in me.
Aoi and Ria showing up back then gave her the opportunity to prolong her interaction with me.
This girl bravely did that to perhaps know more about the guy she couldn’t forget from middle school.
Although a lot had already happened starting from that, finding these in her room still came off as a surprise.
With the girl in my arms, she slowly tightened her embrace on me while retelling why she kept the two things I found in her room.
For the book, she did try giving it back to me after that class. However, according to her, I disappeared right after that class which led her to have no choice but to take the book with her.
Her locker was filled with some other things and she didn’t want to leave it there inside our classroom for the simple reason of it being mine.
As for the picture, it was around that time where I played as a ghost waiter in our class’ Haunted Café for the Cultural Festival. My face was too white because of the makeup and I was expressionless. Eimi played as a ghost waitress. Due to that, we had matching costumes.
I just couldn’t remember when that picture was taken. It didn’t look stolen since both of us were posing like a ghost couple with a dark menu pamphlet in our hands.
She kept it because that was the only picture where I was captured. And coincidentally she’s also there.
Well, I wasn’t really interacting with them back then. It’s already a miracle that I joined them.
Following that, we moved to her bed to continue our conversation. She pulled me with her to lay down in it and to snuggle inside my embrace.
From her mouth, I learned more things about her that she’s probably holding back on telling me.
Like how she was disappointed in hearing I was living with Akane and how her hope was reignited upon knowing that there’s not only Akane in my life. She thought that if the other girls can also be in a relationship with me, why can’t she?
Right. That’s how much she initially liked me that she hid at that first instance and showed me the next time we met.
I managed to open her eyes so she had to rethink her decision but in the end, she still decided to push through by offering to court me.
She also admitted that I was the first guy she truly liked. She did try entertaining some of those who showed interest in her or confessed to her but… she would eventually lose that interest and turn them down.
In the end, she continued being drawn to that mysteriousness that led her to be interested in me.
When I asked her if something changed now that the mystery of me was unveiled in front of her, she just shook her head and pushed my head down to her chest. To let me hear her quickened heartbeat that wouldn’t calm down because I was next to her.
“If something changed, it’s the fact that my attraction to you evolved to truly loving you, Ruki. I really feel special whenever we’re together. And that was even when you told me that you’re only fond of me but not to the point of liking me.”
She pulled me up to her and stared intently at my face while keeping her hold on my head.
Her dark brown eyes were too bright at the moment and I could see how happy she was at the moment. As her lips slowly curved into a smile, she pulled my head closer and put her lips over mine.
Instead of talking more, the girl thought of conveying her feelings to me through that kiss.
All the confusion had already been cleared up and what’s left was her genuine affection for me. Being my girlfriend was probably her long-sought wish. And with it becoming a reality, the girl felt complete.
“I love you, Ruki. I truly am. I know you have a lot of girls aside from me but… that’s irrelevant now. Maybe this is why they’re accepting your multiple relationships. Even if they’re not the only ones, they can clearly feel how special they are whenever you’re together. Experiencing it first-hand made me realize what they truly felt for you.” Eimi then pulled me in for another kiss.
This time, I responded with her and we ended up becoming more intimate by the second.
I didn’t need to say anything else since I was already conveying it through my actions and Eimi was receiving it well.
After around ten minutes, we stood up and left her room.
It’s time for me to go.
When we passed by the living room, we saw her cousin sleeping on the sofa where we left her, snoring loudly. Although that little girl was somewhat mischievous, she respected the privacy she granted us. Or she had just become too sleepy because of how she cried earlier that she didn’t have the time to be mischievous and peep on us.
Eimi accompanied me to their front door, sending me off with a bright and lovely smile on her face.
Because of that, I couldn’t help myself but pull her into another kiss.
“Eimi, although I don’t know when this will be realized… I promise you that in the future, I will be spending more time with you. Not just these brief few hours but even going on a date with you for a whole day or if it’s possible spending the night with you.”
With that last phrase of mine, Eimi blushed profusely, perhaps imagining that night where we could be together.
It took her a few seconds before she recovered and while embracing me tightly, she answered.
“Don’t think too much about it, Ruki. I know that I will treasure every chance we can get for ourselves. Besides, I can still see you every day through Messenger and we have this weekend tryst. For now, while we’re still studying, this is enough for me.”
“Have I told you how lucky I feel right now?”
“More than five times already. You kept on repeating that earlier, dummy.”
“Really? Then I’ll repeat it again. I’m a lucky guy to have you, Eimi.”
“This guy… Go now. You already told me your whole schedule. Don’t be late for it because you took your time here. I really want to go to the Gym and see you being hard at work. But if I do, Anzu-nee will surely come with me. She’ll find out about… the other girls.”
Well, since she’s already one of my girls, I also updated her about my day. And as I expected. She was somewhat overwhelmed upon hearing about the full extent of it. She even jokingly commented that I might need a personal secretary soon who will manage my packed schedule.
“If I did well with that part-time job then perhaps next week. Besides, I know those girls will somehow restrain themselves or it will be somewhat chaotic… Well then, see you soon, Eimi.”
“I see. Then I’ll message you if we will go there. I will be asking for direction…. See you soon, Ruki.”
After saying our goodbyes to each other. I kissed her one more time before finally leaving their house. When I reached their gate, I looked back and saw her seeing me off with her eyes from inside their room. She still had her bright smile plastered on her lips.
Although I was always reprimanding myself for being too greedy, it was always being washed away after seeing the girls’ genuine smiles… I will not pride myself on making these girls happy. It’s the least I can do for them after all.
