The sound of the TV from the living room, the sound of cooking from the kitchen. When I opened my eyes to the familiar sounds, I found myself waking up in a house I hadn’t been in for a long time.
I saw the familiar ceiling and immediately knew where everything was in my room, realizing right away that this was a dream.
My body moved automatically without my will. Even though it was a familiar house, my body didn’t fit the scenery at all. Unlike the house I remembered from when I was young, everything looked lower from my current height.
When I finally saw my reflection in the mirror, I realized I was dreaming as an adult, not a child.
Drawn by the sounds coming from the living room, I opened the door and found my father sitting on the sofa watching TV and my mother cooking in the kitchen.
What time is it? Though I couldn’t see the outside clearly, the brightness suggested it was around lunchtime.
Silently sitting at the dining table, I noticed young Seira sitting next to me.
“Another weekend, and you’re still sleeping in?”
With furrowed brows, she spoke in the same tone she used when talking to me as a child.
“It’s okay to sleep in a bit on weekends.”
I responded as if it were natural for young Seira to be at home.
Since her parents worked, Seira often had meals with us on weekends.
“If you sleep too much, you won’t have time to play!”
“Then I can play tomorrow.”
“Are you going to wake up early tomorrow?”
“I don’t know.”
“Uncle! A says she’ll wake up late again tomorrow.”
Seira looked at me with a blank expression before turning to tell my father, who was watching TV silently. My mother, usually talkative, remained silent despite our noisy conversation.
“Dad.”
I called softly, and my eyes opened.
Though I couldn’t tell the exact time, I sensed the sun was high in the sky. As I tried to sit up, I felt the pressure holding me down.
Yura was hugging me from the right, and Milky Way was hugging me from the left. Both were wrapped in blankets after a hot night of passion, so I carefully laid them down and got up.
Yubin was lying on pillows on the floor. She also sat up after being properly placed.
“Move aside.”
SuA, who had intense sex with me last night, sat on the sofa and said in a dull voice while holding a game controller. She wore only a blanket over her naked body.
“When did you wake up?”
“Just now.”
I first put on the underwear on the floor and wrapped myself in the remaining blanket, then looked around the house.
The blanket on the living room floor remained untouched, indicating someone was still sleeping.
Traces of last night’s passion were still visible on the blanket. Feeling embarrassed, I smiled and followed the scent to the kitchen.
“Good morning. Did you sleep well?”
Hayang greeted me from the kitchen as I approached. I replied with a light “Yes” and went to her.
She was preparing breakfast, with pots and rice cookers boiling. After drying the dishes she used, I gently hugged her from behind.
“You woke up early.”
“Yes. I went out early to do some shopping.”
Unlike yesterday’s clothes, Hayang wore a large gray sweater today.
“Whose clothes are these?”
“Yellow’s. She said to wear them comfortably.”
I saw SuA playing games on the sofa, but she kept her gaze fixed on the TV, not even looking towards the kitchen.
“Bathed?”
“Yes, I bathed right after waking up. You should bathe too.”
“Okay.”
I gave her a light kiss before heading to the bathroom to wash up. First, I approached SuA, who was engrossed in her game.
“Did you win?”
“Of course.”
While continuing to play, she leaned back into me. SuA, who wasn’t big on physical contact despite having sex, showed no reaction. When I kissed her cheek, she turned her head towards me.
We kissed briefly, then separated.
“Do you have my underwear in your room?”
“Yeah, find it yourself.”
I put the blanket down on the living room floor and went to SuA’s bedroom, opening her drawer under the bed. Always prepared for a night of passion with girlfriends, I found a set of underwear and a comfortable tracksuit. I took them to the bathroom.
Hot water washed away the fatigue of the day spent with everyone. After washing my hair and rinsing off the shampoo foam, the bathroom door opened.
“Brother. Did you sleep well?”
“Yes. How about Yubin?”
“I slept well too.”
As Yubin entered the bathroom and we exchanged greetings, she came into the shower stall. Normally, we would have continued with more passion, but maybe because of how intense it was last night? Neither Yubin nor I felt the urge to have sex right away.
“How about Yura and Milky Way?”
“Green woke up. She’ll be here soon.”
Just as I spoke, the bathroom door opened again, and Milky Way smiled at me.
“Brother. Hello.”
She greeted me as she entered the bathroom. We kissed briefly, and despite the shower stall being small for three people, it wasn’t uncomfortable enough to stop us from cleaning ourselves.
“I said I’d go first.”
“But then Red would have to shower with Brother alone.”
Yubin complained, but seeing no intention to kick Milky Way out, she quietly got wet.
“We can take turns.”
As one person washed themselves outside the shower stall, another person washed their hair inside. The process took longer, but we cleaned thoroughly. While two people dried their hair, I went to wake up Yura, who was still asleep.
“Yura. Are you awake?”
“…Yeah.”
Her sleepy response made her come closer as I stroked her head. Slowly, she opened her eyes.
“It’s morning?”
“No, it’s afternoon.”
It was already past noon. Except for Hayang and SuA, who woke up earlier, everyone else had slept in after staying up until dawn.
“Everyone has finished showering. Only Yura needs to shower now.”
“I’m too lazy to shower. Shower me.”
“No.”
“Ugh… That’s mean.”
As Yura groaned and sat up, the blanket covering her fell off. Despite the indoor temperature, it was difficult to walk around naked.
Even with the heating on, SuA’s house was so large that warmth didn’t spread throughout. I covered Yura with a blanket again and helped her stand up. As soon as she stood up, she clung to me.
Feeling her press against me, I also noticed SuA’s gaze from the sofa.
“Let’s shower together. One more time.”
I gently kissed her forehead, and she smiled, sticking out her lips. I stopped her with my finger.
“If you hurry, I’ll give you a proper kiss.”
“Okay!”
With renewed energy, Yura removed the blanket and picked up her underwear she had left behind. She headed towards the bathroom where Milky Way and Yubin were still drying their hair.
I thought about the many blankets on the floor and began collecting them to take to the laundry room. It took several trips, and just as I was about to finish, I heard a loud yell from the bathroom.
I assumed Yura had played a prank on Yubin and continued collecting the blankets.
Despite spending the whole day in passionate activities, nothing was stuck to the floor. Confirming there was nothing to clean, I glanced at SuA, who was still playing games, before heading to the kitchen.
Hayang had finished cooking and was transferring dishes from the pot to the dining table. Without a word, I helped her.
“You don’t need to help.”
“Working together makes it faster.”
We met in the middle, and Hayang gave me a quick kiss before finishing the task with a smile.
“SuA, let’s eat.”
“Yellow.”
I called out to SuA, who was still engrossed in her game. Hayang joined me, and both of us called out to SuA, who paused her game, put down the controller, and went to change clothes in her room.
“Already done?”
Galaxy, who had just showered, looked at the table in amazement. I and Hayang were already seated, waiting for her.
Yubin, who had longer hair than Galaxy, came next.
“Pink sprayed water to dry her hair.”
As expected, Yura, who had delayed showering, had indeed played a trick. Seeing Yubin, who had sat down with a slight frown, smile at her, Yubin blushed and cleared her throat, realizing she had been unnecessarily upset.
“Kimchi stew?”
“Yeah.”
Drawn by the smell, Yubin also showed interest in the closed pot. Since Yura hadn’t arrived yet, Hayang opened the lid.
Freshly cooked rice, kimchi stew, and a few side dishes made for a satisfying meal for six people.
“Pink probably just rushed through her shower. She’ll be here soon.”
As we each served ourselves rice and prepared to eat, Yura quickly returned in her underwear and sat next to me.
“A, I’ve showered, so now you can kiss me.”
She wrapped her long pink hair in a towel and didn’t bother drying it properly, leaving droplets on her hair.
“Okay.”
I kissed Yura lightly, as I had with others, and she smiled brightly. She asked SuA, who had just come out of the room, “Do you have any clothes?”
SuA sighed and grumpily took Yura to the wardrobe. After a moment, Yura and SuA, both wearing large T-shirts, joined us at the table for our first group meal.
During dinner, we didn’t engage in special conversations. Although we had talked about the previous night’s sex and past experiences, the atmosphere felt more like casual chitchat rather than deep discussions.
It seemed normal to discuss sex during meals, but since we had already shared many intimate moments, it didn’t feel out of place.
The conversation eventually shifted to normal topics like what we watched on TV and recent issues. However, it was surprising to see how much the girlfriends conversed naturally, which made me realize that the ratio of conversation to eating was significantly higher than I expected.
“They’re all quite chatty.”
Seeing the girlfriends chatting naturally wasn’t unusual, but the familiarity of their conversations reminded me of common female interactions.
Considering we had all had passionate nights together, I wondered if the mood would be consistently positive. There were still mixed opinions about my harem, and even among supporters, there hadn’t been many opportunities for open discussions.
However, my worries were unfounded. Despite the complex relationships, no significant issues arose due to our connections.
Problems could still arise in the future, but the aftermath of our passionate nights meant the harem issue wasn’t a frequent topic of discussion.
Watching the peaceful meal, I thought that such a routine might not be bad. Of course, achieving this balance required much effort, but it was a comforting idea.
After the meal, we all helped with cleanup and gathered back at the dining table. Each of us placed a drink in front of us, and the silence continued without further conversation.
They were waiting for me to speak, so I cleared my throat and started.
“I want to talk about the future.”
We had discussed our relationship extensively with each girlfriend individually and collectively. But even on this first gathering, during individual meetings, and yesterday, we focused on our relationship and avoided discussing Spacystro and HunterKiller.
Although we briefly touched on past events, we didn’t delve into the future.
It wasn’t intentional; thinking about the complexities of our relationships was overwhelming.
The girlfriends, sensing my intent, listened calmly and nodded.
Complex discussions would be inevitable, but unraveling the tangled threads gradually would surely lead to solutions. Most importantly, I now had five girlfriends instead of just one.
