“Would… would such an incredible coincidence be possible!?”

I knew how she felt. I caressed her head as she held me in her embrace.

“So… so, I’m probably the girl who applied to live with you, Shuu!? It’s like that!?”
“Probably. Mom and Pops were plannin’ to accept the application either today or tomorrow. Once I’m back, I’ll explain things to ’em.”

After crying some more, Rir let go off me and wiped off her tears. When I scooped up a few drops off her cheek that she had missed, she smiled at me.
So cute.

“We owe our thanks to fate… No, perhaps it was set up by that god who sent the message.”
“You might be right there.”
“Heh-heh. I can live together with you, Shuu…! They let us choose if we have a preferred family for the homestay in advance. I’ll absolutely go there. Your family name is ‘Hino’, right?”

That’s the one.

Thinkin’ of it, from her story, we already met several times over there. I can remember helpin’ foreign girls in Japan… but only twice or so, and Rir wasn’t among ’em, so this is probably just for consistence.

“Also… Shuu. I’ve made up my mind now.”
“Huh, about what?”
“I’ll tell you about my past life here once I’ve met you and your parents over there.”
“…I see.”

It sounded like she had decided that after much worrying. Her expression seemed tense.
She hadn’t told me about it so far.

“So, erm, I told you before that I’m hideous… Yeah, even looking at it from an outside perspective, it’s terrible… if you hate me then… w-well, you might not longer want me around over there…”
“C’mon. I’d never do that, don’t worry ’bout it. I-I care for you… l-love you, even. I’m sure I told you before!”

I didn’t care about fumbling my words. To be honest, I wanted to say a cool line like those typical boyfriends in mangas, but it didn’t work out.

The moment I said it, Rir pulled me into another strong embrace.

“Woof~… thank you. As long as you have me, I will spend my life with you! My love for you has doubled, Shuu, with half from here, and half from those memories.”
“R-Right.”

On the other hand, I wonder if Rir might ever turn her back to me. W-Well, seeing she loves me so much, probably not. She says her affection for me has doubled, so that was probably why she cried and hugged me. She was just so happy.

“Woof, at any rate, it will take at least two weeks until we can meet on Earth, won’t it, Shuu.”
“Probably.”
“Woof~, I’m sure I’ll miss you. Though we can come back and meet here anytime we want. Besides, I want to enjoy Japanese culture. For me, everything is just memories. Like being shown pictures or a movie. I want to eat ramen noodles.”
“S-Sure.”

I never thought I’d hear the words “picture” and “movie” from her. So, she did get that kinda knowledge, too. This will make talkin’ bout stuff easier. Before, we had few common interests, and often got stuck in conversation. Just bein’ lovers ain’t enough, right?

“That isn’t all; through those memories, I learned various things about the differences in development between this world and Earth. It’s curious, thinking about the variations in convenience between both worlds.”
“Th-That’s true.”

Perhaps she really is smart. I mean, that’s good. She did manage to apply for that homestay program, which requires you to have a good head on your shoulders.

“Also, Shuu. I understood various other things. For example, how Earth is leagues ahead in psychology and physiology.”
“I guess.”
“Indeed, for a while… I’ve been worrying about something.”

Before I had a chance to ask her to clarify, she put her hands on her chest and cast her head down.
Wh-What’s goin’ on now!?

“Whether my chest fulfills the requirements for those ‘huge honkers’, which you, according to Mika, like.”
“U-Uh!?”
“It seems like they do, and I am to your liking, Shuu… Eh-heh-heh, I’m so glad. So…” After alternating gazes between my face and her own chest, she, just like she had done back then, brought her hands to her clothes and tore them off at once…! “Also… uhm, there is the fact… erm, that you keep looking there. Your eyes are always drawn to my chest, you know…? Uhm, I’m sorry for worrying needlessly. *Yawn*…”

Rir’s face was turning redder than usual as she presented (?) her breasts to me.
…So, she noticed where I was looking.

I sat down on the floor and prostrated myself.

“I’m so sorry~~!”
“W-Woof!? Wh-What are you doing? I-I am completely offering my body to you, Shuu! There’s no need to worry! Uhm, what I’m trying to say is that, if you desire me, then I’d like you to act on these feelings, but… e-erm, my sense of shame1 also changed because of those memories, so I’d prefer you to reply soon, since this is getting embarrassing…”
“Understood. Right now, my head ain’t workin’ properly, so could we get back to this another time?”
“S-Sure.”

I managed a calm response on instinct.

Even after acquirin’ morals and ethics from Earth, her attitude towards me ain’t changed… guess she really cares for me that much. Kinda weird way to reaffirm her feelings for me.

“Woof, I, on the other hand… *yawn*.”
“Hey Rir, I’ve been thinkin’ that for a while, but ain’t you tired?” I asked, when she let out a yawn as she put on her clothes again and was about to declare something.
“Woof, is it that obvious? I think it’s because of all those memories flowing into me earlier…”
“Then go to sleep. I’ll use the time to tell Alim and the others what happened to you.”
“Could you do that for me?” She replied, after, once again, looking back and forth between my face and her chest. “See you later, then.”
“Right, rest well.”

After confirming that she laid down on the bed, I fled the room and returned to the others.



 

Footnotes:

  1. The original is morals/ethics, which I replaced with this, since I’m not sure if “morals” includes this aspect in English.
