Living in a Class-Based World

Chapter 27: Sick Visit

I truly thank you from the bottom of my heart.

No, dont worry about it. As long as my sick visit can help with your recovery, Fumika-san, its all I could hope for.

Oh my, I didnt expect to be told something so lovely by a young gentleman during my remaining lifetime. Just today, you kindly called me by name many times over. Didnt he, Sumire-san?

Arent you glad to have met such a wonderful man, Mother? You need to get healthy so that you can have Yuuta-sama read out your name during his next stream again, dont you think?

Oh, how very true, my dear. It looks like I must do my best at living for a bit longer to have the chance to watch some more of Yuuta-samas dreamy streams.

As part of Moes mothers, Sumires, Service request, Yuuta had visited the hospital where Moes grandmother, Fumika, was being treated. By now almost an hour had already passed since Yuuta, Fumika, and Sumire had started to talk in Fumikas room. Especially Yuutas previous Game Stream served as a very exciting topic for the two women.

Yuuta never brought up a talk about him wanting Fumika to take the surgery, but he made sure to encourage the elderly lady by telling her that he was planning another fun stream in due time and that hed love for her to watch it again.

Earlier when Yuuta had arrived at the hospital, Moe, Sumire, and Aoi had greeted him. Because Aoi wore a cute one-piece dress, he ended up being spellbound by her charm, his eyes remaining pinned on her for a short while. But, he quickly remembered the objective of todays visit, and after exchanging a greeting with Sumire, he headed over to Fumikas hospital room.

As one hour had passed, it spelled the end of the Sick Visit Service, and thus Yuuta promised that hed definitely do another stream and then left together with Sumire after casting a gentle smile at Fumika.

Afterwards, the two of them headed towards the first floors waiting room where theyd left Aoi and Moe earlier.

Yuuta-sama, thank you so very, very much.

Its fine. All that matters is Fumika-san becoming healthy again.

Im sure it will be alright. Today she showed enough motivation to say that she would do her best to get back on her feet again.

Thats great news then.

I have already heard from Moe. Yuuta-sama, you have asked to receive a D rating for this.

Yes. Allowing Fumika-san to recover her health is of utmost importance, so Im completely fine with a D rating.

He didnt put it into words, but the necessary surgery for Fumika would naturally cost money. Also for the sake of not adding financial burden on Moes family, Yuuta renewed his wish for a D rating.

Then please allow me to take advantage of your kindness this time, Yuuta-sama.

Sure. Please watch my future streams in exchange.

Of course! We will wait eagerly for your next streams!

When the two arrived at the waiting room, Aoi and Moe were in the middle of a friendly chat. And seeing Aois smile as soon as she spotted him, Yuuta ended up embarrassed.

Welcome back.

Yuuta-sama! Thank you so much!

N-No, I was able to have a nice conversation with Fumika-san and she also promised me that shed watch my stream again.

Im sure Granny is going to strive hard in order to recover.

Yep!

Moe rejoiced after learning about the successful end of the Sick Visit Service and her grandmother now feeling like working hard at getting better. Seeing her friend like that made Aoi happy as well, and so the three continued to talk in the waiting room for a bit.

Yuuta-sama, thank you once again for your hard work today. Are you going backwith Aoi-sama?

When the conversation between the three students reached a good stopping point, Sumire brought up Yuutas return back home with Aoi. Aoi, the next matriarch of the Eternal Yoshiwaras, was wearing an adorable outfit while also having applied make-up. Neither Sumire nor Moe were dumb enough to not realize what sort of feelings Aoi was harboring towards Yuuta.

We are going back to our grandmothers sickroom again.

Yes! That would be for the best! Moe cheerfully announced with a grin on her lips.

Even though Aoi felt amused by Moes facial expression, she still felt grateful for her friends consideration.

Yuuta-sama, if you do have some time to sparehow about we go eat something sweet together?

Eh? Oh, sure! Gladly!

It was an invitation to a date. Right now Yuuta was wearing a simple shirt and jeans since hed come to the hospital for a sick visit. At first he thought itd have been better if hed dressed himself a bit more stylishly, if he was going to go on a date with Aoi, but then he reconsidered that itd be best for him to go with simple clothes since he didnt have any fashion sense to begin with.

Please excuse us at this point then. Once more, thank you for coming today, Yuuta-sama.

Thank you, Yuuta-sama!

After bidding farewell from Moe and Sumire, Yuuta and Aoi started to walk towards the exit next to each other. Aoi was walking a half step behind Yuuta, but Yuuta also paid attention to match her speed, resulting in the fairly charming and heart-warming sight of a young couple walking while constantly being considerate of each other.

The hospital staff witnessed the twos antics, leading to a rumor that this whole act looked just like the replay of a particular scene in a very famous and adored romantic fiction novel.

Yuuta-sama.

Y-Yes?

Would you please inform your case worker that you are going to stay together with me for a while?

Oh, right. Ill get permission right away.

If the men of this world took actions outside their schedule, itd be immediately discovered and trigger the dispatch of police forces. For the sake of avoiding this, a man would usually contact their case worker first.

In this particular case it was about getting permission for Yuuta to spend time with Aoi. But if a man said he wanted to go shopping at some store, for example, bodyguards would be dispatched.

Ah, I got a call.

Ayaka had contacted Aoi after receiving Yuutas message. The number of the Male Supervision Department was displayed on Aois smartphone.

Hello, Aoi speaking. Yesyesthats right. The timeplease wait a moment.

After having talked about something with Ayaka, Aoi lowered the phone, and asked, Yuuta-sama, how much time do you have?

U-Umm

Yuuta didnt plan on limiting the time spent with Aoi in any way, but of course no other man in this world would consider things like that. In the first place, men would usually expect some sort of benefit for themselves to even take this sort of exchange into account, and women were also operating on the premise that they had to provide some sort of benefit for the man of their choice.

However, Yuuta, as someone from the Old World, still hadnt clearly grasped how love worked in this world.

Lets see How about we go with oneno, two hours for starters?

Okie

After hearing Yuutas response, Aoi happily returned to her call with Ayaka. And after informing Yuutas current case worker of the timeline and their destination, she hung up.

Thereupon, Yuutas smartphone rang next.

Oh, hello.

Yuuta-sama, Ayaka speaking. Just now I have heard from Aoi-sama that you would be heading to Sakura Sweets for around two hours together with her. Would that be correct?

Yes.

In that case, I shall permit the adjustment to your schedule. Yuuta-sama, please use your car as a means of transportation.

Very well.

If you have a nice mood going, it will also be fine to extend the timeline for your date.

UghI-Im hanging up.

Please enjoy your time

As expected, this is regarded as a date over here as well, huh? Yuuta became strongly aware of it.

U-Umm, she told me to use my car to move around.

Of course.

Considering the mans bodyguards, it was only natural for him to move around while using the car provided by the government. And for the woman it was a blissful occasion to be allowed to ride in the mans car.

Yuuta, who had entered the floating box of a car first, suddenly recalled that the man was supposed to escort the woman at such times. Thus he extended a helping hand towards Aoi who was just about to get in as well.

P-Please watch out.

Oh mythank you so much

Aoi joyfully accepted Yuutas hand and climbed into the car. Yuutas face turned bright red when faced with her broad smile from very close proximity. Given that the car had been built with one person alone riding it in mind, its design hadnt taken the comfort of another passenger into account. When it came to a place for Aoi to sit, her only choice was the auxiliary seat.

Ah, Aoi-san, please sit over here! Ill take the auxiliary seat.

That will not do. For me to allow you to sit on the auxiliary seat would be unthinkable.

B-But

Aoi treated it as very natural for her to occupy the auxiliary seat. Even for her as next matriarch of the Eternal Yoshiwaras, itd be preposterous to allow a man to sit on a cramped, auxiliary seat while sitting on a soft, nice leather seat herself.

However, Yuuta and Aoi kept yielding the comfortable seat to each other inside the car. Therefore, Aoi decided to take advantage of Yuutas kindness.

Ummifif you are okay with it, Yuuta-sama, t-thenThe sourc𝗲 of this content nov(𝒆l)bi((n))

Yes?

T-T-T-Together

Huh?

H-How about we s-sittogether?

Their eyes were pinned on the soft single chair which Yuuta always used when driving in this floating box. Certainly, it was big enough of a seat for both of them to fit if they stayed close together.

As someone who had experienced traveling inside a packed taxi in his previous world, Yuuta wasnt against sitting on it together. Rather, in this case, itd be more of a reward.

E-Err, if you dont mind it, Aoi-san.

Absolutely not! Sitting together with youw-would m-m-make mev-very happy.

Looking bashful and yet unable to hide her delight, Aoi gently took Yuutas arm and sat down on the seat together with him. Yuuta also entrusted the lead to her, sitting down while glued to Aois body.

She smells nice.

A refreshing, soap aroma wafted over from Aoi. Her cute dress was sleeveless, and her arm and hand with their pretty, white skin exposed were clinging to Yuutas arm as if Aois life depended on it. Their thighs and waists fit so well together that one could consider them to be one person.

Aois chest as a 15-years old third-year at junior high was still small compared to the adult women Yuuta had seen in this world, but its E-Cup size was more than plenty to arouse Yuuta.

I-Isnt it too cramped? Are you okay?

Thank you for worrying about me. I am fine. How about you, Yuuta-sama? Ummw-w-we can move t-together even c-c-closer

O-Okay.

The thumping of his heart was so loud that Yuuta worried Aoi might actually hear it. But, accepting her offer, Yuuta brought his body even closer to hers.

Ahn, gasped Aoi quietly.

Not a single trace of rejection was contained within her voice. Rather, it was brimming with joy over being allowed to approach Yuuta even further.

Once Yuuta looked at her face, she responded with a sweet smile.

How cute. So very cute.

Yuuta thanked God, despite not knowing whether one actually existed, for being able to ride a car while glued to such an adorable girl.

Ah.

P-Please do not mind.

When Yuuta tried to change his sitting posture a bit, an awfully soft sensation pressed against his arm. However, this hadnt been intentional.

I-I mean, Aoi-san turned this way and glued herself to me!

Because Aoi was sitting with her body stuck to his while facing him, you could call the act of her chest pressing against his arm an inevitability. Even at this very moment, Aois chest was firmly pushing against his arm.

Even if he was told to not mind it, Yuuta didnt know how to react under these circumstances. Meanwhile, the sensation of Aois soft breast was passed on across his whole arm.

This car was a floating box, so it didnt suffer from the vibrations of the cars in Yuutas former world. It didnt stop all of a sudden either. Hence, the chance of some lewd event to occur was close to zero.

But, Yuuta didnt need any of that since his current situation was plenty lewd by any standard.

Aoi didnt move away while having her chest stuck to Yuutas arm, and Yuuta didnt know what to do while his heart was racing.

Yuuta secretly turned his face in her direction.

S-Shes way too cute.

Then Aoi moved her face, directly staring at him with moist eyes. Their eyes met. In a space occupied by them alone.

Unbeknown of who had started hit, both felt like the distance between their faces had shortened somewhat. The throbbing in either chest showed no signs of stopping.

Arrival at the set destination

Their own little world was shattered by a mechanical announcement.

Oh, how delicious.

I am glad to hear that The syrup-covered anko here is my personal favorite.

After the two arrived at Sakura Sweets, they happily entered the cafe together while still being slightly embarrassed. With them informing Ayaka of Yuutas new plans with Aoi, Ayaka took care of everything else along the route, including contacting Sakura Sweets in advance.

As such, the owner came out to greet and guide them to a private room deeper inside the store. The staff and female guests, who saw the couple enter and pass by, watched Yuuta and Aoi enter the private room with their breaths taken away, before a furious whispering flooded the cafe as soon as the door closed behind the two students.

Sakura Sweets was a cafe located in the Yoshiwara District. Not a single woman in this area didnt know who Aoi was.

Yuuta spent a wonderful time eating anko and fruits together with Aoi. At first Yuuta was worried about what he should talk about, but Aoi skillfully brought up all sorts of topics, dominating their conversation. As he listened to her speak, asked her about things interesting him, and talked about himself, time flew by very quickly.

Most of the topics were inoffensive topics suited for a date between a man and woman, such as Aois usual student life, her hobbies, her favorite food, and so on. Yuuta also talked about many things, except for the things he ought to keep secret.

Just like that, the scheduled two hours passed in a flash.

Its about time

Ah, so much time has already passed?

The two still hadnt had their fill of talking. Yuuta wanted to stay with Aoi much longer. Remembering that Ayaka had told him that itd be fine to extend the time, he was about to contact her.

Aoi wanted to be together with Yuuta, too. For her Yuuta was different from all the other men so far. She didnt clearly understand why she felt like that, but she enjoyed spending her time with Yuuta.

He isnt scary.

Aois heart whispered to her.

U-Umm, if youre alright with it, Id like to stay with you for a bit longer.

Y-Yes! I want to spend some more time with you as well, Yuuta-sama.

Please wait a moment.

A person butted into the twos time of happiness. The one who had entered the private room was none other than Manami.

Manami-san!?

Please forgive me for entering the room without permission. I am terribly sorry, Yuuta-sama.

Ah, no, no need. Im fine with it.

Thank you kindly. I did not intend to interrupt your private time. But, Aoi-sama

Y-Yes?

Lady Nanase is calling for you. Forgive me, but please go back home.

Eh? Mother is calling for me?

Yes. I think she wishes to talk with you about your next concert

Ah! Aoi covered her mouth with her hands.

Yuuta couldnt tell from her expression what was going on, but he understood that Aoi had just realized something.

Yuuta-sama, please forgive me. I must return home.

No problem. Please dont mind me. U-Ummsee you later again.

Yes!

Aoi had been slightly depressed, but hearing Yuuta tell her that theyd see each other again in the future, her face immediately bloomed into a smile.

I would be very grateful if you would allow me to accompany you on the next occasion as well, Yuuta-sama, said Manami with a slightly teasing tone.

However, the one answering Manami was Aoi.

By all means! If you are fine with it, Yuuta-sama, I would love to come here again next time, but then with Manami-san accompanying us as well

S-Sure. I dont mind But I see, Aoi-san, Manami-san, youre truly close as childhood friends.

I mean, Manami-san has been at my side ever since I was born

Since you were born?

Yes. It is a great privilege that I can rightfully claim to be Aoi-samas half-sister.

Eh?

Manami-sans father is also my father.

I-I see..

W-Well, it should be rather normal in this world. Im sure theres plenty of half-sisters around.

Yuuta guessed that the number of half-sisters would be tremendous in this world where excellent men were desired for their sperm.

And its not like Aoi-san hates spending time with me alone either, Im sure. I suppose this is only natural, too. Its bad for me to judge everything by the value system of my former world. The women of this world consider it as commonplace to share a man. Instead, women who monopolize a man are regarded as unreasonable.

Of course, that didnt mean that a woman would be fine to share her man with just about anyone. No woman would be happy about her beloved one getting married to another woman who she hated. And although it was also important for a woman whether her man showed her affection and interest, the values of the women over here put a lot more emphasis on a man contributing to society, or in other words, a man interacting with other women, which meant that monopolizing a man was naturally shunned.

Aoi-san would probably be happy about me and Manami-san getting along well No, Im pretty sure, shed be overjoyed. After all, its that sort of world.

I am very reluctant to part, but

Dont worry. Im looking forward to our next meeting during the upcoming School Day.

Okay! I will definitely attend your classroom, Yuuta-sama!

I also look forward to visiting your classroom together with Aoi-sama.

Once they left Sakura Sweets, Yuuta got onto the floating box by himself, and returned back to his apartment.

And then, after Yuuta was gone

SheeshAoi-sama, be a bit more careful, will you?

Sooorry! I simply enjoyed my time with Yuuta-sama too much!

Yeah, yeah. That is great to hear. It is truly auspicious that Yuuta-sama does not scare you.

Ehehe, you see, Yuuta-sama is incredibly gentle

I will listen to your bragging about your newfound love later on. For now we must hurry so that you wont be late for your piano lessons.

Okaaay
