Chapter 1796 Impassioned Praises



“You looked so cool back there, Ruki. You’re so talented in a lot of things.”

In between our kisses, Juri cupped my cheeks and stared straight into my eyes as she praised me out of nowhere. With my head filled with thoughts of her, it took me a while before understanding what she was praising me for.

“Am I? Believe me, I just don’t want them to lose.”

“Is that so? That’s even impressive then. I thought you were there to cheer for Satsu-chan up close. When Eguchi-sensei called for the timeout and let you take over, I found myself engrossed even if I could not hear you from up there.”

With her eyes shining in enthusiasm, Juri narrated her point of view. Though I did see her earlier when I looked, I had no idea she was watching me that closely.

Ah. Well, everyone possibly did. But this girl... anything I do is guaranteed to earn her praise.

How do I look in her eyes?

“Come on, you’re going to make me blush,” I replied as I pressed my lips close to her again.

Her eyes focused on it and welcomed it wholeheartedly. After another satisfying exchange, she chuckled, “Un. You also look great whenever you blush. As expected of Onoda-kun, you’re so handsome.” You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin

This girl and her praises. Where’s the propriety freak now?

If not for the place and the constant shaking of the bus as it rolled along the road, I would’ve been unable to resist the temptation of pushing her down.

Is she praising me a lot to provoke a reaction from me? No... She’s always been like this ever since that day I first interacted with her in Setsuna-nee’s room.

Well then, I just have to also dish out my praises for her, right? That way... we’ll be even.

“Now you’re teasing me, Juri. Should I also start showering you with praises on how beautiful you are? Or how attractive your figure is? Wrapping my arms around you was more than enough to make me excited.”

Matching her movements, my lips slid down to her neck before I worked my way to her ear, nibbling the side of her neck and leaving a glistening trail through my kisses. And once I caught her earlobe, those words naturally flowed out of my mouth, tickling her senses.

Juri’s body squirmed as though she was being touched all over but then her hold on me tightened. She had me pressed against her further that it wouldn’t be wrong to say that we’re now occupying a single seat instead of two.

Satsuki inquired but before I could answer her, Setsuna-nee interjected. Judging by the tone of her voice, she may or may not have caught a glimpse of us in that corner. Whichever the case, her voice wasn’t too confrontational this time. It’s more like curiosity. And with Satsuki next to her, she’s holding herself back from acting up like before.

In any case, I pretended not to hear her and focused my attention on my girl.

“Ah. She’s talking to Yua. They’re possibly imagining what kind of clothes they want to see me in when I start modeling for them.”

Of course, that’s probably not just it but knowing the two, they’d be in some sort of competition on who could praise me more...

And being acquainted with each other before they became connected through me, their difference in age was already bridged. Maybe if I read their current conversation, I’d be flustered enough to cover my face from embarrassment.

Satsuki raised her eyebrows and then leered at me, her scrutinizing eyes admiring my face again. But as always, she ended up blushing after a while before saying, “Idiot Ruki, keep your smug face away or I won’t be able to resist jumping at you.”

As for my response, I kept my silence and did the opposite of what she asked of me, provoking her completely.

Thanks to that, the girl truly failed to hold herself back and the next couple of minutes we spent sitting on the bus was occupied by our burning passion for each other.

At one point, Juri who finished her exchange of messages with Yua looked like she wanted to jump in as well. However, with Setsuna-nee acting like a hawk while also staring me down as if she was annoyed at how brazen we were in front of her, the girl could only watch from the side.

Naturally, Satsuki and I held back a lot. It’s just kissing. Just that, we were so impassioned that we made Setsuna-nee uncomfortable from watching. Also, it gathered the attention of the other basketball club members who woke up from the sound we were making.

By the time we finished, the temperature inside the bus became warmer despite the air conditioning working at full capacity.

In any case, Satsuki seemed to have adopted my thick face. Ignoring all the attention at us, she giggled and took her place on my lap and inside the comfort of my chest.

And while she’s at it, Satsuki also expressed her concern about the paths that I was trying out. It’s getting piled up, after all.

Boxing Instructor. Keyboard lessons. Business studies. Modeling and a lot more to be decided like being their ‘assistant coach’.

“It’ll be fine, Satsuki. I believe this is all necessary for us in the future. The experience that I will be able to accumulate will be the foundation for whatever path I end up choosing And naturally, my priority will never change.”

To ease her worry, I told her my thoughts about it – I also let Juri hear it as she’d have the same concern soon. As for Setsuna-nee... well, she’s free to interpret what I meant by that. It’ll probably be tiring but I know that everything will be worth it.

A while later, the bus soon arrived near the neighborhood of some of the basketball club members. It was decided that they’d take the girls near or in front of their doorstep before bringing the bus back to school. They’re exhausted from the match, after all. They deserve a good rest.
