"Eh? Leizi, why don't you go in and sit down?"

Sakurai Naoko asked with some confusion.

"I, I don't want to sit across from him. Humph!"

Sakurai Ruiko said, giving up her position to her mother.

Sakurai Naoko smiled at Izumi Toru.

"I'm sorry, Izumi-san, Ruiko, she's not very good at talking sometimes."

Izumi Toru waved his hand.

"It doesn't matter, I'm used to it."

Sakurai Ruiko immediately raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "Huh? Don't make it sound like we are very familiar!"

"Is my comic book good?" Izumi Toru asked.

Sakurai Ruiko's heart skipped a beat.

"Suo, Suo, Suo Manfa Su!" (What comic book)

Because she was so nervous, the girl even bit her tongue when speaking.

Seeing that she was so anxious that her face turned red, Izumi Toru stopped teasing her.

Soon, the coffee arrived.

Izumi Toru sat opposite Sakurai Naoko and listened to her tell about Sakurai Ruiko's childhood.

When I was a kid, I beat other people's children and made them covered in mud because they were grabbing candies. I was so moved by watching animations that I secretly hid in my room and cried...

Because of this, Izumi Toru learned about another side of Sakurai Ruiko that was completely different from when he was in school.

Sakurai Ruiko didn't expect her mother to remember her dark history so clearly.

Moreover, I had to tell this guy these things!

Mom is real!

She lay on the table, covering her ears, not wanting to hear Izumi Tetsu's laughter that made her blush.

Damn it! Bastard!

what's so funny!

Seeing the girl's deceiving attitude, Sakurai Naoko and Izumi Toru looked at each other, covering their mouths and laughing.

However, looking at the handsome smiling face of the young man in front of her, she didn't know what she thought of, so she suddenly lowered her head and started drinking coffee.

I didn’t plan to continue telling him anything.

Izumi Toru noticed that her ears on the opposite side were a little red.

Looking at the girl next to him, he suddenly thought of the plot of a new novel.

then……

He stretched out his foot and lightly stepped on her instep.

She looked startled, as if she understood something.

…

Something soft and silky touched the instep of his feet.

Izumi Toru raised his head, the woman's soft face was slightly red, and the girl in the corner was still lying on the table without knowing anything.

He reached out his hand under the table.

"Well!"

She let out a soft cry and hurriedly covered her mouth.

"Huh? What's wrong with you?"

"Because I thought of another interesting thing about Ruizi, and I couldn't help but laugh."

Naoko Sakurai said this, winking at her daughter and showing a naughty smile.

Sakurai Ruiko wanted to cover her mother's mouth.

Why do you always tease me about these things?

But in front of Izumi Toru, she was unwilling to do such a rude thing.

"I-I need to go to the bathroom!"

With that said, the girl stood up and ran to the bathroom as if she was running away.

She really didn't want to hear her mother talk about her dark history.

After the girl left, the two of them looked at each other and said nothing in tacit agreement.

She grabbed the edge of the table with both hands, lowered her head, and breathed softly.

Sakurai Ruiko hid in the bathroom and waited for a long time before slowly walking out.

I should have finished telling my dark history...

Um!

Absolutely gone!

Although, the girl really has no confidence in her naughty self in the past.

But when she came back, she found that Izumi Toru was missing.

"Mom, where is that guy?"

"Izumi-san, I'm home."

"Huh? Why are you leaving now?"

Sakurai Ruiko's voice was filled with a hint of disappointment.

"I said I should hurry up and go back to writing novels to prevent the inspiration I just got from disappearing."

After hearing this explanation, although the girl was still disappointed that he left without saying goodbye, she felt it was understandable.

only……

What kind of novel is this guy writing?

curious!

While thinking about it, she picked up her coffee and took a sip.

The coffee has gone cold.

Turning to look at her mother, the girl suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Mom, why did your lipstick fall off?"

"When it's stained with coffee, some will fall off." Naoko Sakurai explained.

"oh……"

It always feels weird.

But maybe I think too much.

After drinking coffee, Sakurai and her daughter walked out of the cafe and prepared to go home.

However, Sakurai Ruiko always felt that her mother's walking posture was not normal.

"Mom? What's wrong with you? Did you twist your foot?"

The girl said, squatting down with concern and preparing to lift her mother's feet.

Sakurai Naoko was shocked.

She hurriedly picked up her daughter.

"Leizi, I'm just tired from walking too much. Come home quickly."

"oh……"

The woman's heart was up and down, and the strings in her mind were always tense.

It wasn't until she returned to the bedroom and closed the door that she breathed a sigh of relief.

She took off the black stockings that wrapped her legs and threw them in the trash can with a red face.

Shoes, too...

If my daughter had taken off her shoes just now and saw her, then everything would be unexplainable.

In another bedroom of Sakurai's house, Sakurai Ruiko was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Just now, when she squatted down to check Sakurai Naoko's ankles, she seemed to see something strange on her stockings.

what is that?
