Lone Harem Meister Chapter 17: Loner’s First Step to a Harem

That's not the problem here. If these two started working at the same school I attend, I'm the one who will end up with an even bigger headache. Especially because of the tricks up Hinata's sleeves.

"So, are you going to let us in? I'm starving and don't have much energy left."

"Okay, okay. Go ahead." I waved them in.

"Excuse me for the intrusion."

"Sorry for the disturbance." Utano and Hinata said.

The two were lead into the living room.

"Yuki… Hinata and Utano are here!"

"Okay. But Yuuki, shouldn't you be sleeping?"

"Ah, I just got up to go to the toilet is all."

"Can't be helped then. In that case, I have just finished making breakfast so try eating what you can."

Yuki placed grilled fish, miso soup, and a few other dishes on the table.

"I'm excited to try your cooking, Yuki." Utano said.

"This looks pretty good." I inwardly drooled.

Hinata smirked. "… Ohoho, this looks like it will be a great treat."

"Yes. Well then, please go ahead."

We started eating Yuki's cooked rice. It tasted great as usual, which made me feel relieved. I wonder how long it was since I last ate cooked rice in the morning. Probably since the days when my mother was still alive.

"So, why are the three of you in my place? I think I told you to not get concerned with me yesterday…"

It was a nice meal, nice atmosphere, but I wanted to get to the main topic. It's always best to settle troubles as soon as possible.

"Yuuki. I wanted to talk to you about that," Yuki said as she looked me right in the eyes. "Ever since I met you, I couldn't tell how bitter life had been for you, and so I was shocked after I heard about it. But when you tried to distance yourself from us for our sakes, I began thinking about it more and more, and I finally realized something."

Yuki looked at me with an unwavering gaze.

"Kiriyama Yuuki, I love you.

"And no matter what past you had, I will always be by your side."

"I…"

My mind went blank. I had no words. This was the first time that something like this had ever happened to me. It was sudden, and by of all people, Yuki. A beautiful, and heartfelt woman.

"Humu… I'm sorry to intrude in you little world but, I'm also interested in Yuuki. I think things could go smoothly if I was with him, no? So I'm not intending to lose out. To top it off, Despite knowing my personality, Yuuki has never complained. Makes me pretty happy, you know? That's why I want to be his girlfriend."

"Hinata…"

This sudden… Am I perhaps going to die? G.o.d is flipping the laws of the world just to appease my soul before it enters a forever torment? That is the only reason I can think of!!

"I love him too. That's why from now on I will stay close to him. I love you, Yuuki."

"Utano, you too?"

What am I supposed to do here? The progress of the situation depended solely on my answer. I knew that at least. But…how should I answer? I mean, I'm not experienced with this… and should I even be with a woman? My life, my history is not suited for….

"Yuuki," Yuki's voice was clear, drawing me from my thoughts. "We will love you despite what's happened. So don't let it detain you. Make a decision from what you want. Not what you think you should want. No matter who you chose, or what you chose to do, we will accept it."

So she has accepted me for who I am and what I have done and still wants to be with me? A woman like her… She deserves an answer.

"I… I lost everything because I killed someone. With me, you may not live an easy life anymore. But despite that, if you all still willing to bear through the storm to come then please… be mine as I will be yours."

I bowed down. These kind of times are scary since I've never experienced them. I couldn't help but feel nervous.

"There was no doubt in my mind, Yuuki."

"Of course."

"I'm yours."

And like that, I made my first step into making my harem.
