I (30), Who Works for a Black Company and Died While Regretting My Gloomy Life, Started Over From High School!

Chapter 7: Haruka Shijoin, fluttering in bed

(Its natural, but Shijoin-sans house is big )

I dropped Shijoin-san off at her house in the outskirts of the city, and in front of her mansion with a manga-like garden, I got a taste of the social disparity.

Wow a fountain in the middle, statue, and a garden with flowers in full bloom all of them seem to be very expensive to maintain .

Nihama-kun. Thank you very much for today. Its my first time having so much fun on the way back

Oh, no, I didnt do much. I just sent you home because it was too dangerous to walk alone at night.

The only thing I really did was intimidate away a jealous girl who was trying to hurt her, and take her home.

No, I really appreciate it. That um, so.

Hmm?

Thank you very much No, its nothing.

Really?.. Well then, I guess my parents will be worried by now, so Ill be leaving.

Yes, be careful and

So Shijoin-san straightened up her messy collar, cleared her throat, and looked at me

Thatsee you tomorow

Oh, see you tomorow

So the school event was over, and I went home.

(Shes a really nice girl after all. The more I talk to her, the more I like her.)

On my way back to my house, I was thinking only about Shijoin-san as I walked.

(But I wonder what it really is about. I wonder how much Shijoin-san sees me as a man.)

Shijoin-san is a real natural. Shes not aware of how attractive she is, from the opposite sex point of view

She speaks to everyone in a very friendly manner, which has led to many boys misunderstand that she has a crush on them. But the sad truth is that she is just talking to them with a pure heart like a child.

(Well, Im sure I was just someone who is in the library committee together, but after talking about this and that today, I think Ive ranked up a bit and become a good person.)

It would take a lot of effort and time to make the young lady recognize me as a man, and even more to make her fall in love with me.

(But lets not be impatient yet. Confession is a one shot arrow, Ill aim carefully, and make sure to hit her)

After all, she is an impregnable innocent young lady that no one has ever been able to take down.

Today, I felt like she had blushed and shown some hesitation when we parted, but that was a sign of her pure gratitude and should not be misunderstood.

(Its only been a day since I went back in time. Im not going to be so likable, am I? But Ill try harder and harder to get her to accept my confession someday. !)

With my sights set on the objective, I made up my mind for tomorrow.

I, Haruka Shijoin, was at the mercy of feelings I had never experienced before.

(What is this? What is this feeling?)

I spent the next 30 minutes lying face down on the bed in my room and writhing around.

The fuzziness in my chest just keeps getting bigger and it doesnt seem to go away..

(Nihama-kun )

I had always liked the fact that he was kind and cherished books.

But when he talked to me, his voice was so quiet that I thought he was a reserved person.

But today he was as intense as if he were a different person and yet he still felt like Nihama-kun.

(Ive got helped a few times today.)

When Hanayama and the others cornered me, I trembled as the fear that had struck me so many times in the past had begun to strike again.

The girls who have been involved with me for a long time look at me in a horrible, repulsive way.

I was always afraid because I didnt know the reason for it.

(So I was happy when Nihama-kun came.)

On days when I was entangled with people like that, I would always wonder what I had done to them and head home with a dark expression and heavy heart.

(Today its the complete opposite. The entire way home was fun. )

Not only did Nihamas speech become more cheerful, but he also seemed to have become a better speaker, and I enjoyed talking with him all the time, which blew away all my negative feelings.

Then he told me why I was hated by people like Hanayama-san. More surprising than the cause, was the fact that Nihama-kun had told me I was beautiful.

(Ive had people tell me Im beautiful plenty of times. Why did I get so nervous when it was Nihama-kun who said it?)

Ever since I was little, I was often called cute and beautiful.

But it was the same as when I was praised for my clothes or accessories, which made me happy, but it didnt make me feel any better.

(Its kind of nice to be praised by Nihama-kun)

Thats when I loosen my checks and touch my own face. I cant help but feel hot and stuffy, and I start squirming around on the bed again.

It had been going on like this since earlier.

(Ah really..! What wrong with me !?)

I pressed my red face against the bed, at the mercy of these unknown emotions.

My name is Shijouin Tokimune.

52 year old, a winner of the people in life.

I have a beautiful wife who looks as young as she is in her twenties, and a daughter who is an angel herself, and I also run a large company that is well known in japan

If I may say so myself, Im sure Im leading a very enviable life.

I was relaxing in my beloved home after work today, when I heard a strange rattling noise coming from my daughters room and tilted my head.

Hey, Akiko. Theres a strange sound coming from Harukas room.

dont worry about it, Tokimune.There are times when girls want to make their faces bright red and flutter

My wife, Akiko Shijoin, who is drinking tea after dinner with me, said happily.

Red face? fluttering? Hahaha, dont be silly, Akiko. Its not like Haruka is worried about her love life. What?

Hey, wait, Akiko. Why are you smiling and keeping quiet?

This is the part where youre supposed to laugh it off!

Hmmm, shes been a kid for so long I was wondering when she was going to Mom is so happy!

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait! What are you talking about so happily! Haruka is in love! Thats impossible! Theres no way its possible! Its too early for a high school student to fall in love. !

Im not sure if youre serious, but I think youre really creepy, Tokimune.

My smiling wife curses me and breaks my heart, but I still cant admit it.

Haruka is my angel.!Shes a miracle, the embodiment of pure innocence! I will even give up my company and everything for my daughter!

Oh, God, you cant be saying something like that at the shareholders meeting, okay?

Of course not! The only thing I said was, Ill send you overseas if you take a fancy to my daughter! Thats all I said!

But Why so suddenly?

Yesterday, that natural smile was still there!

It seems that a boy dropped Haruka off in front of our house today. Its probably that boy. It was easy to understand and her face was bright red.

He sent her to the front of our house,! Ugh, I want to kill that brat!

Theyre already close enough to leave school together!

Dangerous! The fiend had already approached my angel!

Well, calm down, Tokimune. If you dote on your daughter too much, she will hate you and then stab you with the cliche line, I hate you, Dad!.'

Mu Guu ! No, but seriously, Im worried.That child is a little too innocent.I hope that she wouldnt be fooled by a bad guy.

Well, when you persuaded me, you said you were the president of a weak venture company, right? My father also treated you like an insect.

No, thats just because Im in love with you!

Come on, Tokimune. You should have said that when you were in a better mood.

Uh, yes.

My wife, blushing and angry, is adorable.

Well, maybe someday shell bring him home, and when the time comes, why dont you take the time to see what hes like?

Hmph! If that guy tries to come to my house to say hello, Ill give him a pressure interview at the level of a ten billion dollar business deal! That kid with no guts will never come near Haruka again!

Oh my, the boy she chose might be more durable than you think?

Ha-ha-ha! Not at all! Even the most seasoned sales professionals lose their minds under pressure! As If he could endure it..Thats right.. Is it like an elite slave soldier who has been deprived of human dignity and has been swearing every day, overcoming all unreasonableness and having his heart broken?

Of course, theres no high school student who could do such a thing.

But honestly, only someone with that kind of mental strength would be good enough to take care of my daughter.

Hmph, if a man can endure my 100% serious pressure interview, Ill not only allow him to date Haruka, Ill even allow him to marry her! Its as impossible as that!

I was laughing as I imagined how I was going to blow away the soul of that bad insect. Seeing me like that, my wife smiled meaningfully, saying Hmmm

And from my daughter Harukas room, I could still hear her thrashing around on the bed, as if she was writhing in agony.
