LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 26: Who Is It?
Akasaka, Tokyo, 6:00 P.M.
Inside one of the apartment complexes in a high-class area, on the 12th floor of one such building, an idol that was well-liked by many in Japan lived.
Yes, this was where Hoshino Ai, the lead of the Idol Group B-Komachi has been living for the past year and a half.
Currently, she was inside the kitchen cooking. Well, this wasn't an abnormal occurrence for the people who lived in the house but today.
'Ai looks too enthusiastic,' Aqua thought, he was 5 years old now and is currently Ai's son.
"Mama is acting weirdly," And it seemed that his twin sister Ruby also thought the same.
'Well, it isn't Ai alone, even the President looks different,' Aqua glanced at Saitou Ichigo who was the president of the Agency Ai worked for, and he had this really serious look on his face while he was sitting in the living room.
He has not moved from there since he came to their house two hours ago, this was weird cause he would normally leave after about half an hour during the evening since he had a lot of meetings.
So, the sudden change was more eye-catching.
Both Aqua and Ruby looked at each other and an understanding was quickly formed as they made their way to the person who can give them proper information.
And no it wasn't Ai, nor was it Ichigo, the person they went to was…
"Hmm, well Ai is acting a bit differently from usual, like she has checked the clock at least 20 times in the last 5 minutes," Miyako who was Ichigo's wife said as the kids came to her.
"We already know that Miyako, we want to know what happened," Ruby didn't look very happy with Miyako's answer because they were already aware of the fact, they needed a reason.
"Be a little subtle about it Ruby," Aqua sighed while looking at his sister as he crossed his arms.
"You both should tone this down a little, I don't think any normal five-year-old uses the word 'subtle'," Miyako looked around to make sure that Ai and Ichigo didn't hear the kids.
'Well, we are trying, at least I am,' Aqua thought as he looked at Ruby…
"Of course, we aren't normal, we are the kids of the best Idol in existence Hoshino Ai," Ruby said with the widest grin her small face allowed her to make and even Aqua nodded despite him being the calm and collected one of the two.
He was proud of being Ai's son.
This was quite an abnormal situation because both of Ai's kids weren't normal at all.
"Sigh* how long am I going to stay stuck taking care of these two?" Miyako grabbed her own head as she cursed her luck, she was nearing her thirties and time was slipping away.
'When will I meet a rich Ikemen and live a life of luxury?' Miyako has been waiting for this chance for so long but it never came because she was busy taking care of these two kids.
"Leave that aside, Tell us what is happening," Ruby drove straight back into the topic and Aqua nodded as well.
This was the most important thing right now.
'Ai has been this way since we came from school,' Aqua thought as Ai hasn't come out of the kitchen since afternoon.
It wasn't a surprise seeing Ai cook, but it was a shock to see her cook this way.
'It is like Ai is trying to make every dish she knows,' Aqua even saw Ai slipping through the cookbooks for recipes.
"The President knows, so you should also know the reason," Aqua narrowed his eyes looking at Miyako.
"You kids should really act normally," Miyako sighed before she continued, "I think it is because someone Ai knows is visiting."
"What?" Aqua blinked in confusion because…
'Who is it? There aren't many people Ai knows well enough to let them visit our house,' Aqua's mind raced as Ruby…
"What? Who it is? A m-" Ruby nearly had an outburst but Miyako stopped her before she could shout any louder.
"Sigh, thankfully they are those two are too distracted," Miyako sighed heavily as there was no voices of inquiry coming from the hall.
"Mhmm, HMpH!" But Ruby was hitting Miyako's hands in order to get it off her mouth.
"I am sorry Ruby, but please calm down," Miyako said and Ruby nodded making the former take her hands away.
"Is it a man or a woman?" Ruby asked with a deep frown, she hadn't calmed down in the slightest.
"Well, looking at the atmosphere, I doubt it is a woman," Miyako's words reminded the two kids of the look on Ichigo's face.
"Is some bastard trying to take advantage of Mama's innocence? Let him come I'll throw him down the balcony," Ruby looked enraged while Aqua was deep in thought.
'A man and he was invited to this house by Ai herself, someone she knows from the past, the president doesn't know about him, and it is someone she never talked ...about,' The more Aqua thought the wider his eyes got, 'Don't tell me ...is it our…'
And as soon as Aqua's thought came to that, the house bell rang once, then…
"Coming~!" Ai's over-energetic voice resounded in the house as Miyako and the kids came into the living room to see Ichigo following Ai to the main door.
'Why do I feel like tonight is going to be a hectic one?' Aqua could already feel that as Ai opened the door, but when he saw the good-looking man with shiny white hair standing there, Aqua was even more certain of it.
It was Adam who had come to visit Ai as she asked.
"Good Evening Ai," Adam greeted Ai who smiled happily after letting Adam in, but before she could say anything.
"It is you, isn't it?" Ichigo looked like he lost his temper and grabbed Adam by his collar.
"What?" But rather than being offended, Adam looked puzzled.
'He isn't even budging, how strong is this fucker,' Ichigo sweated inside as no matter hard he tried to push Adam it was futile, but on the outside, he was still angry, because...
"You got her pregnant and then ran away, why are you here now?" Ichigo shouted and this confused Adam even more.
"Nice going President Saitou, punch him!" Ruby seemed to like the development but Miyako and Aqua could only look at her with a deadpan look.
"Wait, what?" Adam's puzzlement only grew deeper.
"Don't play dumb with me, I will take you to the police if you even dare to blackmail her," Ichigo wanted to continue but…
"President Saidou, Mister isn't what you think he is," Ai tried to get Ichigo's hands off Adam's collars.
"What do you mean?" Ichigo was so shocked that he didn't even catch that Ai had called his name incorrectly again.
"Dear, how about you calm down and hear out the two, You are being rude," It was Miyako who came out and actually pulled Ichigo off Adam.
'Yeah this is going to be a hectic night,' Aqua looked at his fuming sister and sighed.
So, after Adam got his shoes off, all of them including the kids went to the living room, and here...
"So, you aren't the father of these kids?" Miyako blinked in surprise, she totally thought that Adam was the father since there was no other way Ai would call another man to this house, she had never shown interest in any other man till now.
'No it is possible,' Miyako thought of the things Ai asked her to buy last time, but now wasn't the time to think about that.
"I am not, in fact, I was shocked to learn that she had kids already," Adam laughed a little.
'Anyone would be, but…' Aqua looked at Adam and at Ai who was also smiling looking at him.
"I am sorry I thought that you were that damn bastard, who came after all these years in order to blackmail our Ai," Ichigo was really sorry for his behavior.
"Well, no need to worry I would've done the same," Adam just smiled, the misunderstanding was resolved so that was all that mattered.
"So, how do you know Ai? I don't recall ever meeting you," Ichigo asked and the wariness on his face still hasn't gone.
'I guess, I thought that a bit too soon,' Adam thought as he was thinking of a reason that wouldn't raise suspicions because there he no way, ' …I can say how I actually met Ai.'
"Oh, Mister was in the same orphanage as me,"
....
We need 250 more powerstones for the bonus chapter.
I thought I would get more stones but it is quite unfortunate that I didn't.
Anyway, let's push higher on the rankings.
That is my wish, will it be granted or not I wonder.
Anyway thanks for reading...
