When I Asked My Sensei Who Was in Her Thirties to Let Me Take Responsibility for My Actions, She Brought Me a Marriage Registration~

fast.

Well, in our house, Mii-kun usually does the household chores, so it was pretty much normal as usual.

Still, Mii-kun is really sly.

He’s a jack of all trades when it comes to household chores, and that’s worth a lot of points.
He has a well-proportioned appearance that’s not too handsome and a slender body.
And on top of that, he has good athletic ability.

He’s unexpectedly flexible and resourceful, and he’s also intelligent.
The only real flaw is that he’s indecisive.

In my case, the ‘like’ filter is turned on, so I don’t have the ability to highlight Mii-kun’s flaws.
I’m really no good.

Even though I should have given up already, I still have lingering feelings.

“Good morning, Kaede.”

Mii-kun, who had noticed me, called out to me while flipping the fried eggs.

“G-good morning … I thought I told you to continue reflecting like that.”

I opened my eyes thinly and glared at him.

Then, Mii-kun visibly agitated and began to sweat slightly.

“Well, it’s tough to keep sitting in the same position as you said.
My legs start to get numb right away… “

“Hmph.
Mii-kun has no backbone.”

“Ugh…”

Mii-kun has a face as if he crushed a bitter bug.
And this time, while looking at my face, he hesitantly brought it up.

“Ah, right.
That thing about me and Sakuramiya-sensei… could you possibly keep it a secret?”

“Eh, why should I? If I tell the education committee about this, it’ll probably become quite a big deal.”

“I-I’d like to ask you to refrain from doing that…”

“…I understand.
Mii-kun, who never had any luck with girls, finally got a girlfriend.
I’m not that bad to leak others’ secrets like that, you know?”

“Thank you, Kaede.
You’re a lifesaver.”

“Mmph, just give me head pats when we are alone, I really love them… W-wait! Forget what I said!”

“Wow, you are surprisingly being honest with your feelings now, huh.”

“…!”

I naturally blush and try to turn my face away so Mii-kun doesn’t see me in that embarrassing state.

Seriously, is he a natural at these types of things?

“Ah, right.
If you have time, can you taste the miso soup for me? I think it might be a little thin.”

“…”

“Kaede?”

“Ah, yeah.
Fine, I’ll look at it.
I’ll have to do it just because I don’t have a choice!”

“What was that for?”

I went to the kitchen as Mii-kun told me to, standing next to him with a wry smile and scooping up a little of the miso soup with a ladle.

Standing next to Mii-kun as he diligently makes eggs, I tasted the miso soup.

Mii-kun glances at me and asks for my opinion.

“How is it? Should I add a little more miso?”

“…It’s salty.”

“What? You’re joking.
It’s really salty?”

Mii-kun slightly opened his eyes and took the ladle from me.

He scooped up a little of the miso soup and put it in his mouth, swishing it around.

Even though it’s just an indirect kiss, Mii-kun doesn’t seem to care.

I’m the one who’s always flustered…

Mii-kun rolls the miso soup around on his tongue and makes a difficult face, tilting his head to the side.

“Well, maybe it’s a little thin.
At the very least, I don’t think it’s salty.”

“No, it’s salty.
Mii-kun, is your sense of taste off? But well, I think this amount is just right for today.”

“If you say so.
Ah, it’s about ready, so can you set the table?”

“Okay.”

I gave a halfhearted reply and took the plates out of the cupboard.
It’s the same ordinary morning scene as always.

I wish everyday could be like this… I quietly thought to myself.
