Chapter 235 Hikigaya’s Newlywed Life.

In the afternoon, the two of them woke up again.

Ichinose made a simple lunch and placed the cut watermelon on the low table.

Looking at the watermelon cut into triangular slices in front of him and tasting the egg roll in his mouth, Hikigaya couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.

"How about it?" Ichinose sat on the ground like a duck, holding her cheeks in her hands and asked expectantly.

"Well, how can I say it, it's pretty good." Hikigaya said a little embarrassedly:

"Ichinose, are you good at cooking?"

This girl's cooking skills are simply amazing.

It only takes a little eggs, bean sprouts, and potatoes to make it so delicious. The cooking level is much higher than that of Komachi.

"Um." A smile appeared on Ichinose's lips:

"Because I am from a single-parent family with a younger sister, and I have always been the one cooking at home."

"Oh, I see..." Hikigaya felt that the question was in vain.

He had heard Ichinose say this before, and it should be a conclusion that can be easily deduced.

"Besides," Ichinose's face turned red as she said,

"It feels a little strange to call me Ichinose again. Can you call me, Honami?"

"Ah, oh," Hikigaya felt inexplicably ashamed.

But now that things were like this, it did feel a little wrong to address someone by their last name. He stammered,

"Honami..."

"Well! Let's eat quickly." Ichinose picked up the chopsticks, scooped up a small ball of rice, and put it into her mouth. She continued,

"After dinner, Hikki, you can rest on the balcony while I clean the room and wash the sheets."

Hikigaya glanced back. The sheets were stained with a large pool of blood, and the room smelled of a fierce fight between the two.

"This..." Hikigaya was a little embarrassed. "How can I let you do this? Besides, your body hasn't fully recovered yet. Let me handle it."

"No!" Ichinose puffed up her pretty face and said with some resentment,

"This is my obligation, so I can't leave it to you. You see, because of my single-parent family, I really want to manage the relationship between us. Housework is a woman's responsibility and must not be compromised."

"Obligation?" 

Hikigaya was a little confused.

"No, this is my dormitory. I should organize it no matter what."

"But..." Ichinose pursed her lips and begged,

"I want to marry You. Your dormitory is my dormitory too. I should clean it, right?"

"Get married?" Hikigaya suddenly stuttered. Although he also wanted to manage this relationship well, Ichinose might have taken it too far.

"Yes, get married!" Ichinose nodded vigorously. 

Although it might seem casual for her to sacrifice herself for the class, at least she wanted to be with Hikigaya forever.

"Okay... okay." Hikigaya lowered his head to eat, his face flushed, and Ichinose smiled.

Soon, Ichinose finished the meal—whether it was breakfast or lunch, he wasn't sure—and looked at Hikigaya with a smile on her chin, her little hand supporting her face.

Although boys usually have larger appetites, Hikigaya ate more slowly. But under Ichinose's watchful gaze, he felt embarrassed and couldn't help but speed up.

"No need to rush," Ichinose said, picking up a piece of watermelon and offering it to Hikigaya,

"Have some watermelon first."

"Ah." 

Hikigaya glanced at the girl in front of him from the corner of his eye and took a bite of the watermelon.

"I see," he thought.

"So this is what it feels like to be fed."

He then spoke up,

"Why is Ichinose smiling so happily? Is it necessary to be this happy?"

It's over. My wife is too good. It feels like if I continue being with Ichinose, I might end up being spoiled and turn into a useless person."

After dinner, 

Hikigaya walked out of the room and rested on the balcony. Inside the room, Ichinose was cleaning with a mop, her skirt occasionally lifting, and a trace of joy mixed with pain flashed across her pretty face. Seeing the scene in front of him, Hikigaya couldn't stand it anymore and walked into the bedroom in a panic.

"I'll do it, Ichino...Honami, you should rest first, or we can do it tomorrow," he said.

"No, don't you want to leave the housework to me?"

 

Ichinose Honami said with some resentment,

"Why did you just forget about it, Hikki?"

"No..." Hikigaya responded a little awkwardly,

"Because my dream is to be a househusband, so I should be the one to do this kind of thing."

"This…" Ichinose suddenly froze, scratched her long hair, and said without thinking,

"Then let's work together. In the future, I will work outside and you, Hikki, will take care of the family. If we have time, we can share the work together."

"No, no, no," Hikigaya quickly interjected,

"This is not fair. You have paid too much. You should go to work and make money, and I will be responsible for the rest. This is only fair."

Hikigaya felt something was wrong. Going to work is not a good thing. The work of a social worker is very hard. How can he push such hard work onto Ichinose? It still seems unfair.

"No, no, no," 

Hikigaya panicked and changed his words,

"As expected, I should go to work to make money, and you should be responsible for the family. Although I have no ability, fortunately, Japan's welfare is pretty good. At least three meals a day should be guaranteed."

Hikigaya couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Isn't it a bit useless to be able to only guarantee three meals a day? Ichinose may feel a little aggrieved by following him. 

It's a pity. That's all he can do. Hikigaya can't guarantee too much. That's just him. They always make excuses and have no information, but they are the most reliable at the critical moment.

Looking at Hikigaya who was a little embarrassed, Ichinose couldn't help but laugh.

"In that case, shouldn't I be responsible for the housework?"

"This…" Hikigaya couldn't help but was stunned, why did he come around again? He looked at the girl in front of him who was so good that it seemed unreal,

"You haven't recovered yet, so I'll do it today."

Ichinose pursed her lips and thought for a moment before nodding,

"Then just this once, from now on I will do all the housework!"

"We can't be so absolute, we'll have to wait and see what happens," Hikigaya frowned. At least during menstruation, it should be done by him.

"Pfft." Ichinose covered her mouth and couldn't help laughing. 

She always thinks about being lazy, but now she wants to share the burden with him. As expected, dating Hikigaya is really great.

"What's so funny..." 

 

Hikigaya was a little confused.

"Nothing, nothing," 

Ichinose waved her hands and said with a smile,

"Let's talk about it then. Anyway, she will never give up!"

 The two of them sat on the edge of the bed.

Ichinose rested her little head on Hikigaya's shoulder and couldn't help but collide with his fingers before saying,

"Actually, Hikki, you don't have to think that it's as complicated as it should be. I'll go to work together when the time comes. There should always be something we can do with the two of us."

"The job is terrible!" Hikigaya murmured. To be honest...

He wanted to back down, but he couldn't leave such a painful job to Ichinose alone.

"It doesn't matter," Ichinose said nonchalantly as she rubbed Hikigaya's shoulder.

"I'll think better of it, but it doesn't matter if I can't get something to eat."

She is also a single parent herself. The living conditions themselves are not very good, and there are not many requirements, as long as they can maintain the family well.

"In the future, we will be very happy if our children do not become single-parent families!" she exclaimed.

"I understand."

"That's no problem."

"I only need a few bread crumbs to live," 

Hikigaya said, nodding.

"Bread crumbs are still too bad, at least Ichinose needs to eat bread every day," he thought to himself. Ichinose rolled her eyes beautifully.

"This guy can only say this, but in the end, he will definitely work hard for his family," she thought. She knew Hikigaya so well now.

"Do it again?" she asked.

"Eh?" Haven't you recovered yet?" he responded.

"But I still have some thoughts...can't I?" she asked

"How could that be?" he replied. Looking at Ichinose's watery eyes, Hikigaya felt his heart pounding.

Honestly, why didn't he notice it before?

Ichinose is too cute. How could he endure this? .
