Postponed tasks are like time bombs; you never know when they might explode.
Tasks left undone include homework, assignments, and household chores, among others. Even if you put things off due to laziness, these tasks eventually grow into massive snowballs rolling downhill, and it’s hard to imagine how big the headache will become.
I have never delayed dealing with problems involving my girlfriends. It’s just that sometimes I postponed addressing them because they required immediate attention and effort to solve.
However, they were never given lower priority.
But regardless of the reason, the fact remains that I did postpone them.
One of these is living at SuA’s house.
Living there may seem unproblematic, but I have five girlfriends.
And one of them lives in SuA’s house.
While other girlfriends visit her house as often as they go to their own, SuA’s house remains SuA’s house, and the others have their own homes.
Although the current situation seems stable, it’s actually only tolerated by everyone to avoid trouble.
“Green is moving to Yellow’s place?”
The matter that no one had brought up was suddenly raised by the Milky Way.
“Yes.”
“……”
Yubin stared blankly at the shy Milky Way, at a loss for words.
“Why all of a sudden?”
“I didn’t decide on it suddenly. I’ve been thinking about it for a while.”
I had never heard anything from Milky Way about moving. Naturally, I hadn’t considered the possibility of her moving into SuA’s house either.
Considering Milky Way moved not long ago, it makes sense. She moved shortly before the bomb incident, so it’s been around three months.
“There are financial issues, and I come to meetings at Yellow’s place frequently. And then there’s also Roy.”
Though she has pondered various issues, I think the most important reason is the last one.
Everyone knows my girlfriends’ physical strength, even without me saying a word.
But mentally, they aren’t as strong.
While my girlfriends’ mental resilience isn’t weak enough to say they’re fragile, they do tend to rely on me.
In the long run, this can’t be ideal, but I can’t tell them not to rely on me.
This is why I understand why my girlfriends who rely on me would want to move into the house where I live.
Moreover, since I am currently living with one of them, they must have hidden complaints.
But since no one decided to live with SuA just because they wanted to stay longer with her, no one saw it as an issue.
“Yellow approved it?”
“Yeah. Just got back from talking about it.”
SuA, who usually doesn’t care much about most issues, sounded quite serious when discussing this matter, indicating she had deeply thought about it.
“Anyway, living together is more economical than living alone.”
SuA gained independence after a legal battle with her parents, which resulted in her receiving a large sum of money. Though she currently doesn’t face economic difficulties, she understands that this won’t last forever.
She also knows that the financial conditions of the group members aren’t great.
It’s clear that the main reason Milky Way is moving is me, but that doesn’t mean there are no other reasons.
Currently, Milky Way’s economic activities are limited to her work with the Earth Defense Union’s hyper-humans. However, since she doesn’t earn enough to fully support herself, it’s hard to consider it a substantial economic activity.
“I see…”
Yubin looked troubled. She appeared much more serious and deep in thought compared to when we talked about hacking earlier.
Yubin and SuA are against my harem. After our discussion about the harem, they didn’t bring it up again, and since they haven’t said much else, it’s safe to assume their stance hasn’t changed.
But SuA agreed to Milky Way, who supports the harem, moving in.
While I know SuA allowed Milky Way to move in due to practical living issues, it’s ironic that SuA, who opposes the harem, let someone who supports it move in.
SuA agreeing to the harem is a stretch, but it’s fair to say her opposition has softened somewhat.
Yubin’s gaze turned towards me as she mulled over her thoughts.
Our eyes met, but Yubin didn’t say anything.
“When are you planning to move?”
While I was curious about what Yubin was thinking, I felt the pressing need to address Milky Way’s move first, so I asked about the schedule.
“As soon as possible. Christmas is next week, so it’s better to do it before things get busy.”
Christmas was just around the corner. The thought of what to do on Christmas came to mind, but I quickly dismissed it and focused on Milky Way’s story.
“So ideally, I’d like to do it this week.”
“Can I help?”
“It’s okay. I’ll handle the packing, and there isn’t too much stuff anyway.”
Milky Way had already packed up quite a bit of her belongings. The difference between her house before and now was noticeable.
But now, instead of moving into a new house, she’s moving into a room, which means she needs to pack even more.
“But I’ll help. It’s faster to do it together rather than alone…”
“Older Brother.”
Yubin softly called out to me as I offered to help Milky Way. It reminded me that I had forgotten about making hacking tools.
“Oh…”
I couldn’t afford to help Milky Way leisurely as I had urgent matters to attend to.
“I’ll help Green.”
Yubin, who alone knows about my plans, volunteered to help Milky Way move.
“It’s really fine.”
“It’s settled. I have free time on weekends anyway.”
Yubin had unexpectedly finished her semester and started her break, making it easy for her to decide to help with Milky Way’s move.
“Thanks.”
“It’s nothing.”
Seeing Milky Way smile, I felt a bit embarrassed and blushed, averting my eyes.
Now that Milky Way is moving into SuA’s house, SuA, as the homeowner, naturally knows about it. Yubin, who was present today, also knows.
I think Yura and Hayang, who weren’t here, don’t know about the current situation. It might be best if I inform them directly.
I’m not sure what decision Hayang will make, but Yura will undoubtedly insist on coming in too.
“The next day. When Yura and Hayang came to SuA’s house, I brought up Milky Way’s move. As expected, Yura immediately said she wanted to move in.”
“Then Red is helping Green move right now?”
“Yeah. This morning, she went to Milky Way’s house.”
Yesterday, Yubin said she would help with the move, and today she promptly went to Milky Way’s house early.
I had been working diligently with a laptop I brought from headquarters when I heard Yura and Hayang had arrived. I took a brief break from my work.
“No.”
SuA firmly rejected Yura’s loud declaration to move into her house.
Though I didn’t expect her to fully agree, her immediate rejection made us all look at her.
“Why? Why can’t I move in?”
“If you move in, you’ll stick to me for sex every day.”
Even though this hasn’t happened yet, hearing SuA’s words, I was certain it would happen.
When I visit Yura’s house, she always stays close to me. Of course, I hug her, which is natural since I’m at her house.
“That’s true.”
But if Yura moves in, the situation will change in many ways. Although I can’t predict exactly how, I know it will be different.
SuA knows this too, but since she is filled with thoughts of staying close to me, she didn’t deny it.
“What about Yellow? You stay close to A every day.”
One of the biggest concerns for my girlfriends is that whenever I spend time alone with one of them, we don’t stop being close. Everyone knows this, including when I’m with other members.
Since I live at SuA’s house, everyone expects that I will be close to her more often, and this expectation is accurate.
“Are you going to have sex every day?”
My girlfriends visit often, but some days they leave early or don’t come at all. On those days, it’s just SuA and me, and we either play games or have sex.
Being the one who knows best what happens when it’s just the two of us, Yura couldn’t refute her statement.
“I want to move in too! I’ll have sex every day!”
Yura raised her voice and pressed SuA, shocked by being denied entry.
“Why are you throwing a tantrum?!”
“If you don’t allow it, I won’t let A touch your big butt!”
“Don’t touch my butt!”
Watching Yura throw a tantrum like a child demanding a toy from SuA, I noticed Hayang watching the two of us.
“How about you?”
“Mmm…”
Given that Yura also said she wanted to move in, Hayang might have changed her mind. Maybe Yubin’s perspective could change too.
“I’m not sure yet?”
“What do you mean, not sure?”
I tilted my head at Hayang’s complex expression.
“I want to live with you too, but I chose this house with you in mind.”
Only then did I understand Hayang’s thoughts. Having moved many times, I don’t have a habit of getting attached to a single place. For me, a home is simply a place where I can relax.
But Hayang’s case is different. She finally became independent after taking care of children for a long time and looked for a house and furniture with me. Thus, this house holds significant meaning for her.
“Do what you want. You don’t have to live at SuA’s house, and I can visit your place often.”
I never intended to force anyone to move into SuA’s house. I’m not the owner, and ultimately, the decision lies with the person who has to move.
Living under the same roof with my girlfriends is good, but I can’t force myself to move just because I want to.
“Okay.”
Hayang seemed to have never seriously considered moving into SuA’s house, so she might need some time to think about it.
Of course, I respect whatever decision she makes.
“Got it! Got it!”
SuA’s voice grew louder, and I looked back at the two people rolling around.
“Really? Can I move in?”
SuA’s clothes were half off, and Yura had climbed onto her on the sofa.
“You can move in and have sex every day, or not. It’s up to you!”
“Awesome!”
It seems Yura’s move-in is approved, but whether it counts as approval is debatable.
Thinking too much about it might give me a headache, so I should probably continue working.
“Where are you going?”
As I stood up to go to the room, Yura lifted her head and stared at me intently.
Her eyes glowed pink, and instinctively, I could foresee what would happen next.
