Chapter 250 - Sometimes I Dig My Own Grave
I was outside the dressing room.
"You know." Raea poked her head out- just the head. She signed with her head. "Come closer." I could see strings around her neck- yeah….
"Now what?"
I thought she'd ask me to make comments about which underwear I'd like and all that but she never really did that.
In fact, she and Aria had already bought the stuff they'd need. Now she was just trying out new ones and mostly to ask for my tastes- I could at least predict that much.
But I still went closer- it's not like she was going to drag me in there or any-
Oh!
"ARH!"
"SHHH!! SHSH!"
Raea dragged me into the dressing room and covered my mouth with her hand.
We were inside the dressing room.
She was wearing new underwear- and well purple polka dots on pink!

And stuff were very close.
She smelled like new clothes and sweat, and well, my heart was racing for various reasons.
"What are you doing?" I whispered, extra vigorously.
"Can you hear that?" She also whispered.
"Hear what?"
I paid close attention.
"AH!.. mgg! Ahh!"
It was faint but- I could hear certain moans and grunts coming… from the other side….
Oh…
"They're doing stuff," Raea said, her ears glued to the walls, a hand still clutching onto my shirt, so I wouldn't run away.
They were doing stuff alright! And they were being rather quiet too- cause these walls were thin, cardboard walls.
"Uh-huh." I didn't need to glue my ears there but, I could definitely tell people in the other room were having quite the fun.
And they were even bold enough to take this kind of risk too.
I guess the fear of getting caught only raised the stakes and made it more exciting. I could understand the concept but I couldn't really understand why.
Anyway, "I'll get out now."
"Wait." Raea pressed her chest against my back and hugged me from behind, not letting me go: soft! "I know you won't look at me otherwise but- at least say how I look?"
This was becoming a pain.
With the added moans and the sensation on my back, it was hard to maintain my cool.
"I said I'd give you an answer later, so let me make this clear." I took a deep breath and turned around. "I love Marg. I might have feelings for Enira. And I promised to marry Selene but she'd become a mistress. That's it. I don't think I can have more wives. Think about it, I'm just one guy. What the hell would I even do with one wife and three mistresses?"
"Have a threesome every day? Or maybe even a fivesome, sometimes?"
A shiver went down my spine. Gosh, this girl had a dirty mind. But- "I won't be able to satisfy you."
In fact, just satisfying Marg last night took a toll on me. I had to go in twice and I had a feeling she'd have liked it once more- meaning, yeah…. Technically I could go up to three times but that was my limit, and I'd feel the true epitome of post nut clarity and I didn't like that clarity.
And dividing my time to different girls on different days of the week didn't really sound all that great to me either. I'd be sleeping with the girls all the time- all week, but what about them? They weren't tools and they too had feelings, even if I ended up treating all of them equally (Which was totally not possible) it'd still not be fair. They deserved better.
She hugged me from the front this time. "I know." Soft stuff pressed against me. "But- as I said, I'm conte- no, I can't be content with that but- I'll try my best and even if it becomes a competition, I won't quarrel with the others and I won't fight by becoming jealous: I'll respect them and wait for my turn."
Those were very bold claims. And wait, her turn? Did she think I could go infinitely or something? "And you think you can keep that attitude?"
"I give you my word. And I'll never lie to you." She looked up; conviction clear in her eyes. "If there's love, all's okay!"
But I still didn't understand what that frigging word entitled, even now. And what if that love ran out?
I sighed. "I'll talk with Marg, now let me go." For the time being though, I had to run away from this scene or something else would have risen up.
"Ah!" And the people in the other room were kind of done too.
Marg would probably stop talking to me for a day. I guess I ought to at least prepare myself for getting a slap or two from her and mom and even Elsa at this point. I kind of just went out of my way to complicate things….
Then again, she was really understandi- who was I kidding. This was serious. This was our relationship I was talking about.
Sigh. There was a chance I could have really messed this up-so I had to act carefully.
Oh and – "And you look good in that." I hadn't actually answered her question, so I dodged everything else and tried to get away from her by answering.
Raea smiled slightly, let me go. I came outside and just stood waiting.
Some minutes later, the couple from the next room came out and walked away cradling each other. 'Why couldn't I just stick with one girl?'
I had no idea.
Raea came out fully clothed, and we went to the counter. Aria was already there and she'd already completed her shopping before we'd even gone to buy the new stuff. And there were no complaints from her.
They paid for their own stuff- or to be more precise, Raea paid and we made our way for home.
'First, there was the thing with Enira and now Raea…' Yeah, I had no idea where to even start the conversation with Marg.
***
We went back home.
It was kind of awkward between me and Raea but we pretended to not say anything regarding that.
I handed over the groceries to the bunny maid, my stuff to Marg, and went to living. No one was here so I turned on the news.
"And with the Battlesuins defeated, the Romswells are back on the top of the world. Though in the past they were just world villains, now they are the strongest family in the world and perhaps even a threat to world peace. What do you reckon, Mr. Japin?" The woman asked the man next to her. She was in rather daring clothes, dark circles beneath her eyes.
Apparently, instead of the news, the TV had something of a show going on. The topic of discussion- Is the world in trouble?
And they were casually dropping shit like world peace. As if the world was even remotely peaceful.
I chuckled and snorted subconsciously just from that fake concern.
"Now-" Japin began. He was a professor at Harvard and he also worked with the government in the Contrant virus case and the epic threat of the Mont Blac outbreak in the west. "They are villains, yes, but they too have class. And if you see the previous results, it is quite clear that they don't destroy countries on mere whims. And they have subjugated the Battlesuins but the Battlesuins are still here and Helio Romswell Jintel is said to be part Romswell, part Battlesuin- hence I think he can unite the two families. Only then will this be truly threatening."
Yeah, one thing was for certain. This Japin guy was bought- bought by us that was. Only uncle would be idiotic enough to make people say stuff like that on the TV. It was entirely possible that the guy was responsible for all this crap about me being the head of the Battlesuin now too. I guess he just wanted to avoid all the responsibilities and use me as a cover.
Sigh.
