Stealing Spree-Novel

Being inside the same house where Satsuki and I made love more than once would certainly bring back those memories. However, compared to the near-empty place in those memories where we could go wherever except their personal rooms, the house was now filled with liveliness.

When we passed by the living room, a place we had no choice but to pass by to get to the stairs leading to the second floor of their house, we were greeted by pairs of curious eyes.

As I cast a quick glance upon hearing the sounds coming from that room, I noticed at least four souls inside, not including Satsuki’s mother who went straight to the kitchen.

Her father, her little brother, her older sister and… the one that looked out of place, her sister’s friend.

They’re all gathered in the living room. Well, not really gathered as if they’re in some sort of meeting. They were just spending their time there while each of them was on their own page.

Satsuki’s little brother who I remembered to be named Satoshi was holding a handheld console, playing something. He looked to be around 6th grade so there’s a considerable distance between the three siblings’ age. He has the same darkish brown hair. As for his face, he resembled his sisters and mother. Looks like their father’s blood was kind of weak, huh?

Satsuki’s older sister, Setsuna, was on one side, chatting with her fashionable friend, Juri. She’s dressed in casual clothes that one normally wore in the house, a rather tight-fitting shirt and short shorts which made her thighs somewhat exposed.

Her friend was also dressed the same, save for what she wore down below; she’s wearing pants that stuck to her skin which still gave away her lean figure.

Satsuki’s father was busy watching the TV on a news channel while holding a newspaper in hand. He’s the typical middle-aged man one would often see on a corporate job. His face screams of being a strict one but there’s definitely gentleness to it upon seeing Satsuki showing up to greet him.

And because of that, we also had to stop and greet the members of the house.

Satsuki’s little brother couldn’t care less as he was too focused on playing.

Her father welcomed us, but just like what happened with her mother, his eyebrows raised upon seeing me.

Satsuki informed them that we’re going to do a group study here but they probably hadn’t thought that there’s another boy in the group. They’re still that guarded despite years having already passed since that incident.

Being subjected to those scrutinizing eyes, I kept my calm and acted politely all the time, complete with putting on what I deemed as a polite smile.

I made myself stand further at the back so that they wouldn’t suspect anything, in consideration of Satsuki.

We talked about this and decided to do it this way. Seeing their reactions to just seeing an unfamiliar boy confirmed Satsuki’s concern over actually introducing me to them as her boyfriend.

Well, there’s a lot of time to do that in the future so I decided to behave myself when in front of them. Our purpose here was to study for the upcoming quizzes, so I better hold back my urges to be intimate with Satsuki or Aya. Besides, Sakuma and Kanzaki would be in the same room. If ever we tried to do that, we had to be discreet and sneaky about it.

Moving on from her father, I somehow felt a rather drilling gaze at my side. And sure enough, it was from her sister whose smile was filled with a lot of meanings. She’s like a natural-born teaser who could tease someone even without saying anything.

Of course, she recognized me. Seeing me standing at the back most likely birthed a few ideas in her mind.

Her friend, however, forgot about me. Probably. She’s a guest in the house, so there’s not much of a reaction to her. Noᴠelꜰire

“Dad, we’ll be in my room. Setsu-nee, don’t disturb us please.”

“Sure thing, lil sis! Enjoy your group study!”

The girl was definitely thinking about other things. She used a playful tone that didn’t sound any bit sincere. However, she’d probably leave us alone for a few minutes just to get our studies done and after that… she’d come in and mess with things.

Well, that’s just my assumption upon observing her expression and current behavior.

“That doesn’t sound sincere at all.”

Satsuki thought the same as she put a hand on her forehead while shaking her head.

Although she admired her sister and even felt sorry for her before, the girl probably couldn’t stand her teasing after knowing that Satsuki has a boyfriend.

“Heh. You’re imagining things. Ryou is coming, right? Send him to me after you’re done.”

“… Tell him that yourself.” Satsuki lightly sighed before clicking her tongue.

Her sister only giggled at that, seemingly used to how Satsuki behaves. However, she instantly shifted her focus as her gaze landed on me. “Sure will. By the way, is that Onoda-kun I see? Why are you at the back? At least greet this onee-san as well. Are you originally this shy?”

As expected, she had that kind of personality who wouldn’t let go of things that amused her. That Sakuma would definitely find it hard to tame this girl.

However, if it’s just interacting with her, that wouldn’t pose any problem to me. I have more troublesome girls I interact with every day. Not including Satsuki and her tsundere antics, there’s Nami, Saki, Elizabeth, Ria and Aoi.

That’s why calling out to me like that didn’t even faze me. I turned to her, bowed and greeted her even more politely.

And that made the girl have a laughing fit that it needed her friend to pinch her sides just to make her stop.

However, being a witness to all that, their father’s interest was also piqued. “Hmm? You know him, Setsuna?”

“I do! I met him before. He’s Ryou’s friend.” Setsuna answered as she dried the side of her eyes with her finger. From laughing that much, tears naturally spilled from it.

According to Satsuki, since her sister kept on bugging her about me, she had no choice but to talk about me. And during all that, she mentioned how we’re part of one group. So being called Sakuma's friend wasn’t exactly wrong in that context.

“Hmm. I see.”

Upon hearing that answer, Satsuki’s father gave me a second look before nodding. I guess being introduced like that fairly reduced his prejudice about another boy that’s not Sakuma.

Following that, Satsuki hurriedly brought us away.

Perhaps it’s to escape further prying from her sister or she’s just too annoyed that she couldn’t talk back at her when their parents were there.

As she opened her room, Aya and Kanzaki entered first and became lost to how girly it was, contrary to how Satsuki normally was.

That’s normal, I had the same reaction during my first time in her room.

“Sorry for my sister’s behavior, Ruki. And my parents’…”

Before we entered, Satsuki sullenly whispered that. Looking at her vexed expression, I instantly understood that she’s bothered that she couldn’t even defend or introduce me in front of them.

“Hmm? It doesn’t warrant an apology from you. I understand the situation. Don’t think too much about it, alright? If you do… I’ll kiss you and show them our relationship.” I smirked as I stealthily clasped her hand on mine.

Since we’re still by the door, Kanzaki failed to see that as well as Satsuki’s blush-stricken face.
