Chapter 29.1

Name:Virtual Alpha and I Author:コオリ
Warm Tears (1)

Yuugo’s parents told me their names.

The blonde alpha is Mr. Sven, and the black-haired omega is Mr. Yuin. After a brief self-introduction of themselves, the call ended as they had to go to work.

I wonder if this much was enough for my first meeting with his parents. In the end, I was still dressed at the state I was when I woke up.

Yuugo was clinging to my back the whole time, and he still nestled his face on my shoulder. Our height differences were pretty large, so it must be an uncomfortable position for him… I wonder if he didn’t feel sore.

He didn’t raise his head even once when he ended the call, I wonder what’s wrong with him.

“Yuugo.”

“…What?”

“I want to see your face.”

He responded in a small voice when I spoke to him. But, he still wouldn’t raise his face.

I wanted to see his face soon.

I could feel his warmth on my back, and I could smell the scent of his pheromones… but it made me feel a bit uneasy that I couldn’t see his face.

“…Mm.”

Yuugo responded, but he didn’t move right away.

Instead, he rubbed his face on my shoulder. His soft hair that brushed against my neck tickled me a little.

“Isn’t this position uncomfortable for you?”

“…Mm.”

What did he mean with that response, yes or no?

Am I asking it the wrong way? Anyway, this position is starting to make me feel sore too.

I patted Yuugo’s head gently, just like what I had done to him earlier. When I did that again and again to urge him, Yuugo finally moved.

“…Were you crying, by any chance?”

When he looked up, there was a trace of tears left on Yuugo’s eyes. He didn’t seem to be crying now, but his reddened eyes were definitely a sign that he had been crying.

His nose was also a little red.

I’m sure it wasn’t caused by him pressing it against my shoulder.

“I just… never thought you’d say something like that about me.”

He didn’t deny it.

Was it my fault? Something like that, he said… which was it?

It seemed like something that I said had struck a chord on Yuugo, and he cried because of that. He probably… cried because he felt so happy, right?

I stood up in front of him and looked up at Yuugo’s face. I reached out my hands and put my fingertips around his eyes.

Even though it wasn’t caused by something negative, the fact that he cried because of me still bothered me. When I checked if there were any wet spots or not all over his face, Yuugo’s hand landed on top of mine.

He held my hand like it was something so precious. Then he closed his eyes and lifted the edges of his lips happily.

I’m telling you, that kind of face of a handsome man is illegal.

I couldn’t look directly at his beautiful face that was smiling so happily.

“Thanks, Sou. I was so happy.”

“…Mm.”

Yuugo bent down his body.

His lips touched mine gently. I stretched out my tongue too as he slid his tongue in me. The tips of our tongues rubbed each other playfully.

Our gazes and tongues entwined together, as if to confirm our mutual feelings.

He pulled my waist closer. As our bodies came closer together, Yuugo’s scent became stronger.

When I closed my eyes at the ecstasy that melted my head to the core, Yuugo’s kiss became even deeper.

After the kiss that took away all of my saliva and breath, Yuugo brought our foreheads together. Still breathing heavily, he peered into my face with a gentle expression.

“—Next, I’ll have to greet your parents too.”

I couldn’t nod my head at Yuugo’s words.

My relationship with my family isn’t that bad.

If anything, I think we get along quite well.

But, something has changed since that day.

—From the day I found out that I was an omega.

I’ve always thought the result would definitely show I was a beta, so I couldn’t believe the result of the examination no matter what.

Along with being unable to face the reality, I felt a terrible sense of guilt. It wasn’t something wrong to be an omega… but I was helplessly afraid to talk about the truth to my family.

My sister has planned her marriage with Dr. Kazuki a little while ago.

My parents didn’t say anything about it when my sister was dating him. But maybe because it was a different story when it came to marriage, one night I overheard my parents say the words “a mere omega” about it.

Maybe because I found out about that, I was even more afraid about it. I was afraid that maybe they would throw those scornful words at me too.

…I felt so scared just imagining it.
