Chapter 66
Outside the window, the dark sky gradually lightened, turning into a dusky deep blue. The moon grew dim, indicating the approaching sunrise.
Minami Yuuki lay on his side in bed, his hand gently stroking his wife’s hair as she slept. He gazed at the face of the woman, who could now be called a mature woman.
That face, made more charming by time and affection, was defenselessly closed before him. He couldn’t resist and kissed those moist lips again.
Her eyelids twitched as if she was about to wake up, but her tired body prevented her from doing so. She turned over, her face pressing against Minami Yuuki’s side.
Minami Yuuki glanced at the digital clock by the bed. It was already past four, with about eight hours left until the free simulation would end.
He carefully moved his body, sliding out from under the blanket, his feet touching the floor.
The tiredness from his body was bound by his spirit and set aside. There was no time for sleep now.
He went to the study, turned on the computer, and logged onto the web.
The sun finally peeked over the horizon, slowly rising into the sky. By noon, Minami Airi returned with Miu and Rikka. Minami Yuuki woke up Minami Nao, and the family enjoyed sukiyaki together.
