Stealing Spree

Chapter 2259: Morning Antics



When morning arrived, I woke up to the sound of Rumi's soft snores and the gentle warmth of her body pressed against mine. The room was bathed in a soft glow from the early sunlight peeking through the curtains. Carefully, I disentangled myself from her embrace to get ready for the day. The tea we drank last night had indeed done its job; I felt fully rejuvenated despite the late night but as always, the side effect once again kicked in.

Down below, my morning wood was standing in its full glory, pitching a tent that stretched the shorts that I put on... Yeah. It slipped out of my boxers. It couldn't contain it.

Part of my promise was for her to experience waking up to this as well; just like what Akane and the other girls had experienced whenever they were sleeping in the same bed as me.

I couldn't bear to wake her up while she was still peacefully sleeping. Besides, it's still a little early. I simply picked up my phone without moving too much and checked my messages.

The girls who were already awake sent their morning greetings, some even had photos showing their just-woke-up look. Of course, only those who weren't shy could do that like Aoi or Elizabeth. And somehow, they still looked gorgeous.

I couldn't help but smile as I scrolled through their messages. It was a period of peace that made me appreciate their affection for me, reminding me again and again of how lucky I am to be surrounded by such amazing women.

Anyway, after replying to their messages, I also checked some of those with other content like an update or something.

One message that caught my eye was from Machida. I don't remember giving her my number but maybe I did hand it on the few instances that we've met. In any case, her message was quite interesting.

"Good Morning Onoda. This is Machida. I thought I should apologize for acting like that yesterday. And also, thank you... I heard from Akane. You're also worried about the conflict that happened before between me and her best friends. I'm going to make up for it."

I blinked a few times and some of my drowsiness also cleared up as I was surprised by her message.

Machida saying she's going to make up for it? Did she wake up on the other side of the bed? I thought she was not taking full responsibility for it?

Their karaoke session worked?

Yeah. It was a little unbelievable considering how she was acting before. This change of heart was something I never expected would happen right away. It's a good thing though,

definitely. Less drama and more peace.

Maybe Akane also had to do with it. Looks like she's really befriending her...

Wait, It wasn't for me, right? She's not prepping Machida to be stolen by me.

I thought for a moment before typing in a reply.

"Good morning. I'm glad to hear that. Hope you get along."

Although I wanted to ask her about her group. I figured it wasn't worth it. That one guy who was still nursing his crush on her was like Sakuma. He probably would never confess unless threatened. As for the other members... I could care less about the guy but the other girl... Well, she was more troublesome than how I perceived Machida before. She's the type of girl who only knows how to have fun at the expense of others. Because she was protected, she seldom suffered consequences. And when she did, those idiots would lynch the one who retaliated.

They were a troublesome bunch for a wannabe riajuus.

I forwarded Machida's message to Akane and my silly wife's reply was an emoji sticking its tongue out before she initiated a video call.

As the screen loaded, I was graced by the view of her room. Her room in their house that I had yet to set foot in.

A second later, the camera focused on her face as she was still lying in the bed, her bed hair apparent. I instinctively tried to reach for it and fix it like a force of habit.

Seeing that attempt, Akane sweetly giggled.

"Hehe, husband. I know that you miss me. Come home soon."

"Mhm. I'll be home later," I answered. "So, is this call about Machida?"

Akane nodded before her rosy lips stretched into an impish smile, "Yes. But first I'm sorry, I gave her your number. She asked me for it last night, saying she wanted to apologize and thank you."

... I knew it. I never gave that girl my number.

Without waiting for me to respond, Akane continued, "Actually, I have a plan for Machida."

"What plan?" That immediately intrigued me... This is Akane we're talking about... Her plans are everything but ordinary.

"I'll keep it a secret for now. But it'll surprise you... Oh, and before you assume what exactly it is... I guarantee it won't be me preparing her for you. I learned my lesson! I won't do that anymore. I know husband is trying your best to restrain your desire. Ehehe."

That 'Ehehe... Am I supposed to believe that? Ah... Well, when did I doubt her?

"I see. Well then, just be careful and make sure it's not something that can get you in trouble.

If there's a problem, tell me right away. You know I won't be able to stand it if something

happens to you."

"It's not going to be dangerous. I promise. It'll be totally harmless to me and to everyone." Akane assured with her face turning serious.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

If she's already acting like that, I just had to wait for it, right?

"By the way, husband."

"Hmm? What is it?"

I thought she was about to say something more serious than the topic we just discussed but Akane just sat up from her bed, her face turning crimson as she glanced down.

"I think my... period has arrived. I'm gonna go to the bathroom! Say hi to Sister Rumi for me. Also... come back home soon! I won't give you to Miwa-nee tonight."

And with that, the girl hurried up to the door of her room without disconnecting the call.

I heard her calling out to Aunt Akemi, asking her where she put the pads. Really, what a silly

wife.

At this point, because of the sudden noises from Akane's rush downstairs, Rumi has woken

up.

"M-morning Ruki... What's that? Is Akane being chased by a bug or something?" Rumi rubbed her eyes as she watched the scene playing on the screen on my phone.

"No. It's just the silly girl crying out for her pad. She left her supply in our house next door so... she's not scrambling for it." I explained to Rumi who immediately started giggling before she called out to Akane, telling her where to look as if she and Aunt Akemi had a similar idea about where to store those things in their house.

After a few more minutes where Akane scrambled around their house, waking up her parents from her antics, Rumi and I laughed silently as we watched the show unfold.

When Akane noticed that the call was still connected, she pouted and then stuck her tongue out to me before saying, "Sister Rumi, please give husband a smack on the head then kiss him

for me."

Without waiting for a reply, the call ended as she stepped into their bathroom.

Slowly, Rumi's head turned in my direction. "Should I smack you or kiss you first?"

"You decide. But before that... good morning, Rumi." I pulled her up and gave her a morning kiss that instantly evolved into a passionate one that left us out of breath.

Rumi gently smacked my head before caressing my nape and cheek, "... Bad Ruki... Good

morning."
