[Chapter 7]
When Kazumi opened her eyes, she did not immediately recognize where she was and then a slight snoring next to her alerted her and she fell on Ohno-san. She smiled to herself as the memories of the previous night resurfaced.
The young woman watched the architect sleep and without thinking, the tips of her fingers ventured on his cheek and then in his hair manhandled by the night they had spent together. She came closer and kissed his forehead, which woke him up. Ohno-san stretched, his eyes fluttered a little, then he gave a little smile like hers when his eyes fell on her.
- What a sweet awakening. He said grabbing Kazumi's hand. Ohayo.
- Ohayo.
- You're hungry ?
The young woman's stomach answered in her place and both began to laugh briefly.
- You let me take a shower? In the meantime make yourself at home, I'll take out some clothes that you can put for breakfast, unless you run away as soon as I have my back turned. He said with a small smirk.
- I will not move from here, I'm not one of those cabaret girls who go back to their client's home for a supplement. She answered with a chuckle
- I know it.
Ohno-san kissed his forehead and left the bed without worrying about his nakedness to go to his closet from where he pulled out a pair of training pants and a t-shirt that he put on the bed.
- Here are the clothes, I go in the shower and I come back right after.
Kazumi just nodded and lingered for a moment on his partner's body as he turned to go to the bathroom next to the room. Once she heard the water flowing, she pulled out of the sheets, suddenly much more modest than the architect, and put on what he had prepared for him then to explore the rest of the luxury apartment.
The kitchen was open to a large living room very bright thanks to large windows overlooking the awakening of the city. The young woman went to admire the view for a few moments and then went back down the hallway to the owner's room and found what appeared to be an art studio, an office and the toilet. There was one last door that she opened like the others to fall on a second large room empty of any presence.
Kazumi returned to stay to find something to do and noticed the presence of a piano. She approached and sat down, lifted the lid and brushed the keys with her fingertips. The young woman then produced some notes and soon didn't stop anymore, being carried away by the melody and the magic of a moment that had not happened since ... She didn't remember any more. She had closed her eyes in the midst of the emotion that was going through her and did not open them again until the last note sounded in the room, followed by applause that made her jump. Ohno-san was there and smiled at him, but since when? She got up hurriedly and bowed to him.
- I'm sorry, I shouldn't have.
- There is no harm, this piano has never been used as anything but decoration. It was really beautiful. How long have you been playing?
- Since I was little, I think that my parents put me on piano lessons as soon as I could sit down and press keys. Kazumi said.
Satoshi chuckled and gently took her by the hand and kissed her. God that it had the power to evacuate all the pressure her mind contained, Kazumi would surely be addicted to it.
- You come to sit? I will make food.
- To hear you, it sounds like you're going to make me a kind of show.
- Possible.
She laughed and had her sit at the kitchen counter before picking up what he needed in the fridge.
*****
While he was preparing breakfast, Kazumi was looking at him without really seeing him, and she had not uttered a word since he had invited her to sit in front of the stove. In retrospect, things had gone fast between them yesterday. After their kisses in the metro station, they had taken a taxi to his house and had flown quickly into the room, carried by the euphoria and envy that crossed them at that moment. But now that it was done, hadn't they gone too fast? Okay, they were two responsible adults and all the trimmings ... but maybe she regretted having slept with him afterwards, especially since he had played the deep asshole with her Feelings only a few days earlier, and one day it must be told that he is promised to another. "What am I doing, I'm just causing her a little more trouble ..."
- Satoshi-san ... She finally said.
- Hai hai? He said with a smile.
- It burns ... She said pointing her pan.
The young man reacted immediately and returned the poor half burnt pancake, put it on a plate and put a dose of dough in the pan.
- Did we go too fast? She asked suddenly as if reading in his thoughts.
- I don't know. You regret ?
- No, it was ...
- ...amazing...
Their eyes met and as the young woman's cheeks flushed a little, Satoshi was sure that his were mirrored. They felt the same for each other and he was relieved. He forgot Airi instantly.
- I would like to apologize about ... what I did and made you unhappy. I was not very good about myself, I don't know what took me. He said, aware that he was not telling her everything.
- I can't guarantee that I will forget, or forgive you but I accept your apologies.
- In any case, be sure of one thing: I love you. And from now on, we will take our time.
- Well ... it's not like we've never seen each other before and I don't mind being in bed with you ... she said with a small, teasing smile.
He smirked and cut the fire under the pan to go around the island and embrace the young woman before kissing her as she slid her hands in his neck and his hair. His own hands already wandered under the t-shirt he had lent her when the kiss was broken and she whispered against his lips:
- And breakfast?
- We don't care ! The architect growled, lifting her just before kissing her lips with love and leading them back to the bedroom.
*****
Satoshi laid her on the bed with infinite softness, then joined her and hastily removed his t-shirt as she imitated him, intoxicated with excitement and envy again. His arms trapped her and his lips rested on each accessible patch of her body, causing in her like a myriad of electric shocks.
He was going to take off the remaining fabric that was still covering her when a ringing phone rang out in the room. Satoshi froze for a moment and then she signaled him to continue but the ringing sound lasted and they had to make up their minds to put their lovemaking on hold. Kazumi took her phone out of his bag and sighed a little at the sight of the calling number.
- It's my brother. She said sitting on the edge of the bed to pick up. Hai Mas'?
Satoshi straightened and placed himself behind her to kiss her shoulder and the base of her neck tenderly.
- What? No, I'm not at home. I'm at ... Ohno-san's home ... It's a long story, ok! Why Sho-kun doesn't open to you? He left? Mas' you're really a pain in the ass to lock you out of the apartment! I arrive !
The young woman hung up and turned to kiss the architect.
- I have to go, sorry, my brother has spent the night outside, he has quarreled with his boyfriend... In short, he has locked himself out of the apartment.
- Don't worry.
The young woman quickly changed to her own clothes, grabbed her bag and kissed Satoshi again before leaving.
- By the way, I love you too. She whispered.
*****
Masaki had been sitting on the door for almost three quarters of an hour when he saw Kazumi come out of the elevator, visibly annoyed.
- How did you do? She asked, turning him from the doorway to insert his key into the lock of the front door and finally get him in after her.
- I lost my key, I spent the night outside and obviously Sho and you too.
- Where were you?
- I went to a bar with colleagues, I spent the night at one of them. I was too drunk to drive apparently.
- Hm hm. Kazumi mumbled, putting down her bag and taking off her shoes before settling down with his brother in the living room. And Sho-kun? Where is he ?
- I don't know, probably at his desk. I don't want to know.
- Mas' stop, I know you're worried.
- Why would I? He's not worth it, my boyfriend doesn't find me well enough and is too ashamed to confess to his parents that we are together.
- Are you going to stop being so stupid, yes? Sho-kun loves you and you know it, he's just terrified because he's caught between two fires and he wants to lose neither his family nor you! Mom passes you almost everything and she accepted the fact that you're gay so for you it's easy to say that but I remind you that Sho-kun's parents are very traditional, you could try to understand at least! Damn it !
The young woman had raised her tone and somehow, her threatening look made him swallow his words and finally realize how stupid he had been. Deep down, he knew all that, and he too was afraid to meet his boyfriend's parents. He sighed.
- You are both right. I am ridiculous.
- Don't say that, you're freaking out, that's all. Nobody would want to separate from a man like Sho-kun. She said, putting her arm around his shoulders.
- I'll call him to find out where he is and apologize.
- Good.
Masaki smiled. He could not resist her, she was his little sister after all, and she was almost always right. He grabbed his phone from his jeans pocket and dialed his boyfriend's number.
- Moshi moshi? He made his voice on the other end of the line.
- Sh ... sho-chan ...
- Masaki, is it you?
- You ... didn't you see the number?
- Of course yes ... Gomen gomen, I have my head elsewhere.
- Where are you ?
- In the office, I slept there after working on an article but when I wanted to call you, you didn't answer.
- Yokatta ...
- You worried about me?
- Of course, yes ... I ... I'm sorry I got carried away the other day. Kazu made me understand what you had to feel and that I was stupid.
- I guess I must have some responsibility too. Don't think about it anymore.
- Sho-chan? You still love me ?
- Hey? Of course! It's not a little argument like this that will separate us!
Masaki smiled.
- I love you too. See you tonight at home?
- Hum. Tonight, I love you.
He hung up and smiled stupidly on his phone for a moment when his sister moved next to him. She had placed both her hands under her head and was smiling at the ceiling.
- I like to settle the couple quarrels in the morning.
- Look who has taken for a couple counselor! Laughed Masaki. By the way, what were you doing at Ohno-san's?
He saw her suddenly turn red and she looked away.
- Did you had sex? How was it ?
- Oi! I still haven't said anything!
- Don't tell me you just slept there. Come on ... Tell your beloved brother ... he begged. I told you everything about Sho-chan ...
- How to forget it ...
- Tell me! Tell me! The young man was hopping in his seat.
Kazumi sighed, rolling her eyes.
- We met in the subway, I almost fell in the stairs, like when we met except that this time he caught me before I fell. He told me that he loved me, we kissed... kissed a lot, and I told him what I felt too, then we went home and the rest is forbidden to people under 18 and to the nosy big brothers!
- But I don't understand, after what he did ...
- He apologized for that, he said he was not well and I noticed it when he was in my boss's office yesterday afternoon.
- Aren't you suspicious?
- Yes ... but at the same time ... I found him, the real him, the one who rescued me when I hurt myself in the middle of a crowd, the one with whom I talked for hours at phone. I love him, he loves me and his performances have nothing to envy anyone, between you and me.
- Haha! It shows that you've never done it with Sho-chan!
- You're right I'll try with him and compare, how are you?
- No way ! Offended the young man.
- You were the one who started the subject.
- Okay, kidding aside, if you think you can trust him this time, I wish you happiness but if he ever plays with you again, Sho-chan and I will pay him his account! Nobody hurts my dear little sister!
The young woman smiled and hugged her brother before snapping a quick kiss on his cheek.
- I love you Mas'.
- Me too Kazu-chan.
- Well, I'll take a shower, I haven't had time to take it since someone lost his keys! I knew I should have joined Ohno-san in his. She said with a small smirk as she got up and left the room.
- I recognize you there. He replied.
*****
Jun was slowly emerging from her sleep, lying in bed, enjoying the outside noises that came from the open window and the distant smell of coffee her husband had to prepare in the kitchen. "A good Sunday in perspective," she said to herself, turning on her back, waking her baby, who started her morning gymnastics, and then snuggled against her hand she had just put on her belly.
- Let me sleep a little more, chibi-chan. She mumbled in her hoarse morning voice.
It was then that she heard her husband open the door of the room. She didn't open her eyes right away, but she continued to listen. The young woman could hear him approaching the bed, laughing silently close to her then go put something on the desk, come back to her to sit on the edge of the bed and kiss her with infinite delicacy. This is when Jun chooses to wake up for good. Opening her eyes, she fell on those of her beloved and raised her hands to grab his face and kiss him back.
- Ohayo. She says.
- Ohayo, Jun-chan.
He then slid lower and kissed her belly as he did every morning since Jun was pregnant, triggering a gentle movement of his daughter in response.
- Ohayo Mini Jun-chan. He said.
- Maybe we should get her a REAL name, you will not call her Mini Jun-chan all her life.
- I know but it suits her well.
- If it does, she will look much more like me.
- I doubt it.
Jun rolled her eyes as her husband kissed her on the forehead and went to get what he had put on the desk. The young woman could see that it was a breakfast tray. She sat up against the headboard.
- I made you a good breakfast. He said putting the tray on her lap.
- It's not my birthday yet.
- I know but I wanted to let you rest.
- Toma, don't worry, everything is fine, I haven't had contractions for three days and it was not even painful.
- Let me make you happy and make sure of your well-being, you want?
The publisher smiles. It's true that her husband only wanted their happiness after all, she wasn't going to blame him for that.
- You are the most adorable man on this planet, you know?
- Now yes.
They laughed together and kissed again before the young woman started her meal.
- I'll make you run a bath with lots of foam in it! Said Toma.
- Will you join me?
The smile at the corner of his wife's mouth didn't escape him.
- Hum, if you want.
- Well, good. Go, little slave.
- Hai, mistress.
And as he left the room with a bow, Jun could not help laughing and munched in a toast while admiring the flower he had placed in a vase on the tray. At this very moment, nothing was lacking in her happiness.
And this feeling strengthened when she slipped some time later into the tub full of hot water and scented bubble bath against the chest of her husband. She sighed comfortably and Toma kissed the top of her head.
- Let's take advantage of this moment, when the baby will be there, we will have less time to spend together.
- But there will be also thousands of wonderful moments when we'll be three. Smiled Jun.
- And then maybe four or five, who knows?
- Hmm ... mumbled the young woman in the wave.
- What's the matter ? Don't you want more children later?
- I haven't yet given birth, we will talk about it when she will be born.
- And?
Jun sighed. Her husband knew her by heart.
- And if it was our only opportunity to be parents? It has been so hard for me to get pregnant this time and this pregnancy is not easy every day. Maybe it would be better if we stopped after this baby, it would avoid us false hopes and miss her life.
Toma kissed her temple and his wife could feel his smile against her skin.
- Don't worry, we'll discuss it again in proper time. I know it was hard, how to forget it? I only want your happiness Jun-chan.
- And with you, I could not dream better. She smiled, sliding her hand to Toma's hair.
She closed her eyes and relaxed completely, lulled by the slight movement of her husband who hugged her tight against him.
- When we lost the baby two years ago, I thought I would lose you too.
Jun opened her eyes following her husband's declaration and broke their embrace to be able to change position in the bathtub and sit in front of him.
- No way. We are married for the better and for the worse, remember?
- I know but every day that passed after that, I was afraid to find the bed empty next to me by waking up in the morning. You ... you didn't say a word for weeks and I saw you wither away. It made me even more painful ...
Jun had to hold back her tears as she thought back to that time in her life that she would rather forget forever. The young woman grabbed Toma's face and silenced him with a kiss.
- I felt guilty all that time for what happened. Something in me broke on that day and will never repair but we overcame that. Look at me, I am very well and this event of our life has only strengthened our couple. Otherwise I wouldn't have wanted to try again to get pregnant.
The young woman grabbed her husband's hand and put it on her belly.
- And I'm convinced that this baby will be born in good health and that we will see her grow up and become the most beautiful woman ever.
Toma giggled with Jun and kissed him tenderly.
- I love you, Jun-chan.
- And me even more, you idiot.
- Was it necessary to call me an idiot?
- My little idiot of mine. She said kissing him on the nose.
- You'll never change. Smiles the young man.
- That's why you married me.
- Jun-chan: 1, Toma: 0.
- Ne...
- Hum?
- Could we go to the cemetery this afternoon? Jun asked more seriously.
Her husband stared at her for a moment and then nodded with a small smile.
- Hum, of course.

- Ohayo. She says.
- Ohayo, Jun-chan.
He then slid lower and kissed her belly as he did every morning since Jun was pregnant, triggering a gentle movement of his daughter in response.
- Ohayo Mini Jun-chan. He said.
- Maybe we should get her a REAL name, you will not call her Mini Jun-chan all her life.
- I know but it suits her well.
- If it does, she will look much more like me.
- I doubt it.
Jun rolled her eyes as her husband kissed her on the forehead and went to get what he had put on the desk. The young woman could see that it was a breakfast tray. She sat up against the headboard.
- I made you a good breakfast. He said putting the tray on her lap.
- It's not my birthday yet.
- I know but I wanted to let you rest.
- Toma, don't worry, everything is fine, I haven't had contractions for three days and it was not even painful.
- Let me make you happy and make sure of your well-being, you want?
The publisher smiles. It's true that her husband only wanted their happiness after all, she wasn't going to blame him for that.
- You are the most adorable man on this planet, you know?
- Now yes.
They laughed together and kissed again before the young woman started her meal.
- I'll make you run a bath with lots of foam in it! Said Toma.
- Will you join me?
The smile at the corner of his wife's mouth didn't escape him.
- Hum, if you want.
- Well, good. Go, little slave.
- Hai, mistress.
And as he left the room with a bow, Jun could not help laughing and munched in a toast while admiring the flower he had placed in a vase on the tray. At this very moment, nothing was lacking in her happiness.
And this feeling strengthened when she slipped some time later into the tub full of hot water and scented bubble bath against the chest of her husband. She sighed comfortably and Toma kissed the top of her head.
- Let's take advantage of this moment, when the baby will be there, we will have less time to spend together.
- But there will be also thousands of wonderful moments when we'll be three. Smiled Jun.
- And then maybe four or five, who knows?
- Hmm ... mumbled the young woman in the wave.
- What's the matter ? Don't you want more children later?
- I haven't yet given birth, we will talk about it when she will be born.
- And?
Jun sighed. Her husband knew her by heart.
- And if it was our only opportunity to be parents? It has been so hard for me to get pregnant this time and this pregnancy is not easy every day. Maybe it would be better if we stopped after this baby, it would avoid us false hopes and miss her life.
Toma kissed her temple and his wife could feel his smile against her skin.
- Don't worry, we'll discuss it again in proper time. I know it was hard, how to forget it? I only want your happiness Jun-chan.
- And with you, I could not dream better. She smiled, sliding her hand to Toma's hair.
She closed her eyes and relaxed completely, lulled by the slight movement of her husband who hugged her tight against him.
- When we lost the baby two years ago, I thought I would lose you too.
Jun opened her eyes following her husband's declaration and broke their embrace to be able to change position in the bathtub and sit in front of him.
- No way. We are married for the better and for the worse, remember?
- I know but every day that passed after that, I was afraid to find the bed empty next to me by waking up in the morning. You ... you didn't say a word for weeks and I saw you wither away. It made me even more painful ...
Jun had to hold back her tears as she thought back to that time in her life that she would rather forget forever. The young woman grabbed Toma's face and silenced him with a kiss.
- I felt guilty all that time for what happened. Something in me broke on that day and will never repair but we overcame that. Look at me, I am very well and this event of our life has only strengthened our couple. Otherwise I wouldn't have wanted to try again to get pregnant.
The young woman grabbed her husband's hand and put it on her belly.
- And I'm convinced that this baby will be born in good health and that we will see her grow up and become the most beautiful woman ever.
Toma giggled with Jun and kissed him tenderly.
- I love you, Jun-chan.
- And me even more, you idiot.
- Was it necessary to call me an idiot?
- My little idiot of mine. She said kissing him on the nose.
- You'll never change. Smiles the young man.
- That's why you married me.
- Jun-chan: 1, Toma: 0.
- Ne...
- Hum?
- Could we go to the cemetery this afternoon? Jun asked more seriously.
Her husband stared at her for a moment and then nodded with a small smile.
- Hum, of course.
