Chapter 74: Similar Ways to Calm Down
When someone cries, it usually means something painful has happened. While there could also be other various reasons for it, it’s still only natural to assume that something happened when someone is shedding tears.
“Hayato-kun, can I come in?”
“
Ah, Aina.”
“
”
Aina entered Hayato’s room cheerfully but saw him shedding tears on the bed. His eyes were red and slightly swollen. Seeing her beloved, someone so important to her, crying
 It was undoubtedly something urgent.
“H-Hayato-kun!? What happened!? Did something happen to you!? Who did this!?”
“A-ah, Aina
”
With a swooshing sound, Aina rushed to Hayato’s side.
Whether something happened to him or if there was a painful spot somewhere in his body, all that occupied Aina’s mind was her concern for Hayato. If he’s crying, she’ll calm him down. Putting that into practice, she embraced Hayato’s head against her ample bosom.
“Mmmph!?”
“See, Hayato-kun. These are your favorite b*****s. Does it feel good? Does it bring you comfort?”
“
”
Aina herself was desperate to calm Hayato down. While it’s true that Hayato indeed loves b*****s, he felt embarrassed about being treated this way when he wasn’t really that down.(E/N: Down bad?)
“
Aina. I’m okay, so
”
“Then why are you crying? Something happened, right?”
Aina continued to question him forcefully, her tone strong and rapid-fire. It seemed that whenever she witnessed Hayato in a state where he shed tears, this was her response. Aina’s eyes reflected her determination to find out the cause and crush the seed of sadness within Hayato.
“Something happened, but
 yeah. Will you listen?”
“Of course. Tell me.”
Hayato chuckled and began talking about his dream, asking Aina to lower her fist.
It was about a dream where his young self and his still-living parents appeared. He saw the three of them living happily, and the voice he heard was his mother Kasumi’s. Hayato shared everything he dreamed about to Aina, including Kasumi’s wish to watch over him as he grew up and her declaration that she would love him forever, even if she were no longer there.
“I had that dream. I don’t know why, but I felt like I met my mom and dad again. Even if it was just a dream, it made me happy to hear them say they love me.”
“
!”
Tears had already stopped flowing, and Hayato was smiling as he recalled the dream. Nevertheless, this time it was Aina who embraced Hayato tightly, shedding tears.
“So that’s what happened
 Uu, just hearing about it makes me cry.”
“Hahaha, now it’s Aina who’s crying
”
“Because, you know
”
Aina’s kindness, which allowed her to shed tears for others, was also her charm. It was the same for Arisa and Sakuna. Well, they might initially panic a bit, like the first time with Aina, but they would definitely try to pamper Hayato to calm him down.
“I wonder if my dad appeared in my dreams too. I don’t remember every small details, but it’s still heartwarming when someone you can’t meet in reality appears in your dreams.”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Well, he would have liked to see them getting married
 If he was still alive, maybe Hayato could have introduced such wonderful girls to him.
“
Well, I’ve already introduced them to my mom.”
He had a dream once where he talked to his mother, Kasumi. He reported to her that he loved the three of them and that they would continue living together. He also remembered how she laughed and said it’s like a harem.
“
Oh, right. Did you have something to tell me?”
“Huh? Oh, yeah. Well, it’s nothing important. But once I saw your tears, I didn’t want to let go.”
They embraced each other on the bed.
There was nothing else they needed to do, just lying down and holding each other was enough to bring them happiness. For both Hayato and Aina, just looking into each other’s eyes like this was fulfilling.
“The tears have stopped, but your eyes are still so red.”
“Well, that’s unavoidable. It’s usually like this after someone finishes crying.”
“Yeah, you’re right.”
They laughed together while saying that.
Now, earlier, Aina said it’s okay even if she had something to tell him. That something turned out to be calling Hayato. Sakuna was not present due to work, but Arisa was in the house, just like Aina.
In other words, Arisa was wondering why Hayato didn’t come, and Aina, who went to call him, didn’t return either.
“Hey, Aina, you went to call him, right
?”
Arisa entered Hayato’s parents’ bedroom hesitantly. What she saw there was the sight of the two of them embracing on the bed. It wasn’t that she felt jealous at this point, but it wasn’t amusing to see them being affectionate when she had been waiting silently.
“Both of you, seriously?”
Aina laughed and apologized, while Hayato stood up. Arisa, seeing Hayato’s red eyes just like Aina, froze in place. In that moment, Hayato felt a strong sense of dĂ©jĂ  vu. And before he knew it, Arisa was embracing him tightly.
“What’s wrong!? What happened
 Aina couldn’t have done anything
 H-Hayato-kun. Are you hurt somewhere? Did something sad happen?”
Arisa’s demeanor was exactly the same as Aina’s earlier.
Thanks to Aina, Hayato’s mood had already calmed down, and Hayato and Aina explained the situation while laughing.
“So, that’s what happened. But I’m glad
 It was a good dream for you, Hayato-kun.”
“Yeah
 So, Arisa, you can let go now, right?”
“No way. Right now, I’m in the mood to pamper Hayato-kun. I won’t let go of you until I’m satisfied.”
She hugged Hayato even tighter.
It may seem like Aina is left out in this situation, but she didn’t look lonely. Instead, she smiled and watched the two of them. After a while, Aina couldn’t resist anymore, and joined them in the embrace.
“Yeah, this is the best.”
“That’s right. Aina and I will heal Hayato-kunâ™Ș”
“
This is too luxurious.”
The three of them returned to the living room and, as usual, Aina and Arisa sat on either side of Hayato. They hugged his arms tightly, as if they would never let go. While it was true that he couldn’t move, what he felt in return from them was a soft touch and a sweet fragrance that surpassed anything he could have imagined.
The sight of being accompanied by the famous beautiful sisters, who were the talk of the school, was like being surrounded by flowers in full bloom. If Sakuna were to join them, it would be an even more incredible scene. Without a doubt, any student attending the school would be envious to the point of shedding tears of blood.
“Feels like being a king, huh?”
“Yeah. I’m satisfied.”
Hayato purposely spoke in an elderly voice, causing both of them to chuckle. When it came to this point, he felt mischievous, but he had played a prank on Aina before when they slept together. Arisa had naturally found out, and she had asked why he didn’t play pranks on her.
(
Well, maybe it’s better not to play pranks.)
Just as Hayato was thinking that, a divine revelation struck him.
If it was not okay to play pranks on one of them, then why not play pranks on both? With that in mind, Hayato immediately released his arms and pulled both of them close. He used his hands to gently massage their curves
 It truly felt like being a king.
“Mou, Hayato-kun, you’re such a tease.”
“Fufuâ™Ș Both Nee-san and I are happy to be touched by Hayato-kun. Just this alone gets us ready.”(E/N: Wet?)
Well, for now, Hayato was in the mood to just relax and enjoy some intimate moments together.
As they chatted, Hayato delighted in exploring their bodies, while they allowed him to do as he pleased, gradually increasing the excitement to its limit.
“By the way
 What kind of students do you think will come next year as our freshmen?”
“Hmm, I hope they won’t be too unique or weird.”
“There will definitely be guys confessing to both of you though.”
“I don’t want that.”
“Me neither.”
While it couldn’t be said with absolute certainty, it was highly likely to happen.
However, judging by their reactions, it seemed that neither of them had any hopes for the incoming male freshmen.
