Chapter 25: Chapter 25 - Help for Nanako and Possible S*x

(~alarm clock sound)

- (Me). "Huh?..."

The alarm clock rang, and Sohen finally woke up.

- (Me). "Is it almost evening already? Wow, I didn’t think I would sleep so long."

The accumulated physical and psychological fatigue made itself felt, and Sohen slept for almost eight hours after seeing... those hot bodies in the morning.

Today, for the first time in a very long time, he just rested, and the other women, seeing that Sohen was not very active today, decided not to disturb him.

It is now four forty p.m., and in twenty minutes he has to go to Nanako’s to help her with something.

- (Me). "Nostalgia... The last time I visited Nanako was when I was about twelve years old. It’s really ironic that we’ve become neighbors again."

For Sohen, Nanako will always be a special woman because she was his... first love.

He was very jealous of her husband because, for him, Nanako was always the epitome of a real woman, who was also very gentle and kind.

More than ten years have passed, and he has grown up, but his heart still beats fast when his first love is nearby.

Sohen read the news on his phone for a while and then went to visit Nanako and Maria.

He rang the doorbell and a few seconds later his neighbor answered.

- (Nanako). "Come in, Sohen, and make yourself at home."

His neighbor let him into the house, and Sohen noticed that she had a slight blush on her face, and he understood... she still hadn’t forgotten the morning incident, and the event that had happened a few days ago with the kiss on the cheek was probably still on her mind.

Sohen was embarrassed, but he showed with his whole demeanor that he didn’t understand why Nanako was acting this way.

Nanako’s problem was with the plumbing; the water pressure was low, the faucet was leaking, and it seemed that the sink was clogged.

He wasn’t a handyman, but he could solve some problems on his own, and this was no exception. freewёbnoνel.com

The plumbing in this house was outdated, and he knew that the previous neighbors, a retired couple, hadn’t done any repairs for a long time, so it was understandable that something like this could happen, although it was a little surprising that it happened so soon.

Nanako and Maria had only been living here for a few days and already had such problems.

The plumbing problem was visible to the naked eye, but Nanako probably didn’t notice it or perhaps didn’t understand it and ended up buying the house.

The house itself wasn’t bad, but it needed a good renovation.

We need to help them find the funds to renovate it to their liking.

We also need to consult with Runo and Karin about renovating Nanako’s house and recommend the same company that worked on ours.

Finding funds for Nanako was not a problem, but knowing her character, she would never take my money, and I don’t know how others would react to this news, so I need to come up with something to make everyone happy.

My lovely neighbor was around almost all the time, and we enjoyed talking about various topics.

Maria wasn’t with us, and I also noticed that since the day we became neighbors again, she had been quite cold and shy with me.

I don’t blame her, as ten years have passed and we have all changed, but I wanted to be her friend again.

Time passed, and there was still a lot of work to do, so I told Nanako that I would need to buy a few more things to make everything work properly.

During the repairs, I noticed that some parts were outdated and needed to be replaced, and that I would need at least one more day to finish all the work.

Nanako was happy that I would be able to finish everything so quickly, but when she heard that I needed to buy something else, she was a little upset.

- (Me). "Are you short on funds? Don’t worry, I can buy them with my own money. It won’t be expensive for my wallet."

- (Nanako). "It’s okay, Sohen. I’ll find the money, it’s just... the house itself was quite expensive for my budget, and I’m not officially working right now, so there are some problems with that. Thank you for offering to buy it yourself, but I’m already embarrassed that I can’t repay you enough for today."

- (Me). "Don’t be shy, Aunt Nanako. You always helped me when I was a little boy, so I have to do something like this for you."

- (Nanako). "Sohen... You’ve grown up so fast, I can’t believe it. Thank you, but please know that I helped you back then because I wanted to, and please don’t think that you owe me anything or anything like that."

- (Me). "Okay, Aunt Nanako, ha ha..."

An atmosphere of nostalgia and mutual respect filled the air, and we both smiled and laughed.

Nanako took a few steps away from me and started making dinner, while I continued with the repairs.

We continued to talk periodically until I remembered something...

- (Me). "By the way, Aunt Nanako... where is your husband and why isn’t he helping you?"

Nanako paused for a moment and lowered her head, but after a few seconds she continued cooking.

- (Nanako). "My husband, he..."

Her voice became sadder and she exhaled heavily several times.

I immediately realized that something was wrong and decided to end the conversation about him.

- (Me). "I’m sorry, Aunt Nanako, if this is something personal, I won’t talk about it anymore..."

- (Nanako). "It’s okay, Sohen. It’s not a secret or anything. It’s just that sometimes it hurts when I think about him."

- (Me). "???"

She gathered her strength and spoke.

- (Nanako). "We’ve been divorced for nine years, and all these years I’ve been a single mother."

Nanako told me more about her past life and why they divorced.

Her husband was away on business trips almost the entire time they were together and was not present in the lives of his daughter and wife.

He earned enough money to support the family on his own, so Nanako became a housewife.

She was at home all the time, while he traveled almost all over the country, and at some point he met a female colleague whom he liked very much.

At first, it was just a friendship between them, and they were both married, but about nine years ago, the female colleague’s husband told Nanako that her husband and his wife were lovers who were hiding their relationship.

He presented her with a lot of evidence online that Nanako’s husband was cheating on his wife and that he had a similar secret.

This news caused Nanako great physical and mental harm, which continues to this day.

She filed for divorce, and after some time, the trial began.

Nanako won the case outright, as she had sufficient evidence of her husband’s infidelity, and the court ordered her now ex-husband to pay alimony until Maria turned 18.

Her ex-husband was not happy with Nanako’s actions, but he was not opposed to becoming unmarried.

He promised to pay alimony on time, but only a month after their last conversation and a few days before he was supposed to pay the first alimony payment, he left the city where they lived with his mistress, and then even the country, and since then nothing has been heard from him.

- (Me). "I’m sorry, Aunt Nanako...

- (Nanako). "It’s okay, my dear. That’s life, and it’s always unpredictable. You have to keep living, and... I’m not alone. Maria will always be with me, and I’m happy that she’s my daughter. Life is hard, of course, but when you have the support of loved ones, you can overcome anything. I think you understand the meaning of these words well."

- (Me). "Yes, better than anyone..."

Our conversation turned from pleasant to gloomy, but after a few minutes we changed the subject and we both felt a little better.

After a while, I finished what I could do today and wanted to go home, but Nanako stopped me and suggested we have dinner together to at least thank me.

The three of us had dinner. Maria came after her mother called her.

Everything was delicious, but the mood was off.

Nanako tried to say something, but I could see that she was not in a good mood, and Maria was silent the whole time and tried not to interact with me.

Nanako thanked me, and I returned home.

When I arrived, my grandmother, mother, and sister were still having dinner.

I told them in detail everything I had done at Nanako’s house.

The atmosphere was less sexual than it had been in the morning, but I still paid attention to their appearance and ended up lowering my head a little because I still felt some intense emotions when I looked at them.

I ate almost nothing of what Runo, who was in charge of dinner today, had prepared, but I decided to drink some of my grandmother’s new tea, which she kindly offered me.

Today it tasted a little better, as if his grandmother had added more sugar, but the aftertaste was still a little strange.

After drinking the tea and thanking her, Sohen went to his room.

After a little exhausting work at Nanako’s house, he immediately took a shower and returned to his room.

After looking at the website for a while longer, he fell asleep without even noticing.

His laptop, which had slipped to the left side, almost fell to the floor, but the hands of a person he knew well picked up the device and quietly placed it on the table.

This person had been watching Sohen sleep peacefully in bed for several minutes.

A gentle hand began to move toward Sohen’s face, and in a moment, he would have an incredibly new experience in his life.
