Chapter 8

We arrived on the second floor and stood in front of the door with a number 22 at the top.

"This here is our room... I will call Shiina now, I hope that you get along well, Saeki-Kun." Yasuko said in a slightly anxious tone.

She opened the door "Shiina, I want you to meet-- Kyaaa!"

"Be careful!"

She almost slipped because of an empty jar on the ground at the entrance of their door. Thankfully I managed to catch her right away.

But what I'm worried about is...

"Hmmm~"

My hand felt something soft. It's my first time feeling it and I heard Yasuko moan because my hand cupped her breast.

A sigh escaped from my mouth as I placed my hands on her shoulders to help her stand in balance again. 

I can feel her body shivering as her face reddened while looking at me. I apologized. "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to--"

"It's okay Saeki-San, I could have hit my face on the floor." She made an awkward smile, then picked up the jar at the entrance of their door.

Also, a notification popped up but I decided to check it later.

"Shiina, can you pick up the things you have scattered?"

I thought she would be mad, but her voice was gentle when talking to her daughter. Yasuko's voice is also pleasing to one's ears.

"This is Shiina, my daughter."

Walking back to the door, Yasuko is dragging a girl by holding her hand.

She is very beautiful with a rather slim physique. She has pale skin accompanied by red eyes and long, pale blonde, hair that reaches her waist.

She looked at me and tilted her head "I'm...Shiina...Nice to... meet you." Shiina is almost completely devoid of emotion, typically wearing a blank expression and speaking in a dreary manner. 

'The very first girl that didn't show any change the moment she sees me.' I thought and observe her using my system. This seems interesting...

[Shiina Takasu] (AN: Shiina Mashiro Original)

Age 16

Personality: Because of Shiina's lack of common sense and emotionless character, she has been sheltered for the majority of her life. This has led to her having exactly zero experience in romance and love in general. "Hmm, maybe you should do something about that, my champion. Fufufu."

Affection Points: 0 - stranger

Okay, what the hell, now this 'Goddess' is messing with me in the status of the women I meet, what is her deal? *Sigh* Whatever, I suppose I will find out when I eventually meet her again.

Anyway, the lack of common sense and emotionless character surprised me. Both the mother and daughter have such different personalities...

She has a short height so I bend my body and smiled at her. "Hi Shiina, I'm Saeki Yuichi. We will be neighbors from now on. Please take care of me."

"Shiina...Shiina Takasu... I will be in your care... New neighbor..." Said Shiina in her sleepy voice while bowing her head.

"You can continue your painting now." Yasuko patted her daughter's head and watched as she walked away. She sat in front of an easel, that holds a canvas, as Yasuko looked at her with a loving motherly smile.

"So? What do you think about her? Cute right?" She faced me still with a smile on her lips.

"Yes, your daughter is very cute. It's obvious because the mother is beautiful." I made a charming smile that I will use all the time for special women.

[Yasuko Takasu]

Affection Points: 15 - Admiration.

"Well, thank you for that," she answered with a faint blush showing on her cheeks.

Yasuko told Shiina that she will be right back and left her in the room. Then, she gave me a tour of the first floor until we reached a living room with three sofas, a table, and a huge screen on the wall.

"Oh? Did he already meet Shiina?" Iori was sitting on a sofa while doing some paperwork.

"Yes, I think they will get along well," Yasuko answered and sat beside Iori. Then, she looked at the papers on the table.

"Is there something wrong Iori?" Yasuko suddenly asked and faced Iori. I also noticed something was wrong.

"Yes, but I think I can manage it. The restaurant has started to become, deserted..." Iori sighed with a dejected look.

She looked at me and smiled, gesturing to the chair in front of them to let me sit.

"Can I help with it? Iori-San?" Sitting, I decided to ask if I can do something.

"Really it's okay, I will manage to fix things!" She waved her hands with her voice raised.

"I can be a waiter if you want me too..." I offered. Yasuko and Iori faced each other when they heard my proposal, and a creepy smile formed on their lips. Seconds later, they faced me with a serious expression while their backs were straightened with a business-like aura.

"W-Will you? Is it fine for you? Saeki-Kun?" She said while gazing at me with expectations.

Smiling, I nodded my head and told them about my plan.

"I decided to hold back for a year and maybe look for a job... Being a waiter is not bad, plus I'm living in your dorm. So it's fine for me..."

Though, I have planned to also become a model. Taking advantage of my new looks and Im sure that many will sponsor me.

"You have already planned it out? Held back for a year?" Iori asked, feeling sorry.

"Yes, it's fine for me. I know my teachers won't have any problems accepting me again." I smiled again to assure them.

"Oh, yes. Yasuko, I forgot to tell you that the man in front of us is super smart!" Iori said in a cheery voice.

"Really? Well, if you wear glasses..." She asked in a surprised tone at first, then, Yasuko squinted her eyes while observing my face sharply.

 "Yes! You will make all the girls die, just to know your name!" Yasuko nods, making a huge smile and gazed at me with starry eyes.
