Himegi-san a Bride from the Future Begs Me to Confess My Love to Her Again - Volume 1 Chapter 1.2

Future Bride 2

“Ha-kun, have you calmed down a little?”

“….”

“Heyy Ha-kun, can you hear me?”

I managed to sit down on an empty chair under my own power after regaining my composure.

I appreciated her concern, but unfortunately, there was no way I could calm down.

I tried my best to sort out the situation, but I ended up even more confused.

Sitting next to me, Touka Himegi peered at me with a worried expression on her face.

“I understand that you’re confused, but I think you’ll be somewhat convinced if you listen to what I have to say.”

“…Convinced?”

There are a mountain of things I’m curious about. Will she explain all of them from now on?

I repeatedly confirmed her appearance from head to toe. Just as I thought, it’s a wedding dress, right?

To me, it unmistakably looks like a wedding dress.

Since her shoulders and back are exposed, I can clearly see her beautiful collarbone and graceful neck.

Also, her chest is very large, as I thought. Even when she was wearing a school uniform, she couldn’t hide it.

Seeing her ample cleavage, I reconfirmed that she belongs to the category of girls known as busty.

By the way, I’m not looking at her with any improper intentions.

There’s a reason I can’t help but focus on her chest.

There’s a number on it. The number 『60』 is engraved on her right breast.

Is that some kind of tattoo? Even if it were, what could that number mean?

Is it perhaps her breast size? Does 『60』 indicate her bust measurement?

No matter how I look at it, I think Himegi-san’s bust size is well over 90 centimeters.

Maybe it’s not centimeters but inches?

I forced my gaze away from her chest, really struggled to look away, and then raised my gaze upward, focusing on her finely sculpted face.

“Hmm? Is there something on my face?”

Touka Himegi directed a carefree smile towards me.

Ahh…it’s my favorite expression.

Although she’s usually have a cold expression, this pure smile she occasionally shows is what captivated my heart.

Yes, I wanted to monopolize this smile all to myself.

However, as I looked at her face, I felt a slight sense of discomfort.

Could it be my imagination…?

She’s oddly sensual, or perhaps a bit seductive… Is it because she’s in a wedding dress? Or is it due to a different makeup or hairstyle than usual?

I thought her aura seemed more mature than ever before.

Though she already looks more mature than her peers, now she seems like a mature woman.

“Just to confirm one thing.”

“What is it?”

“…This isn’t some kind of prank or surprise, is it?”

I considered various possibilities, but this question seemed to be the most appropriate.

My parents, who were enjoying their sushi, Kanako, along with that fortune-telling Old woman and Himegi-san, all conspired together to surprise me with an elaborate prank.

If that’s the purpose, then they’ve certainly achieved it. But why?

I’m getting impatient for them to reveal the joke.

“Well, I’m sure you’re surprised, but it’s not a prank or anything like that.”

“Then why are you in my house? Why the wedding dress? Also you two, don’t just calmly eat sushi like nothing’s happening! This is an emergency, okay? There’s a woman in a wedding dress sitting in our house, sipping green tea with a serene face! Aren’t you supposed to react like an adult? Also, that salmon roe, sea urchin, and fatty tuna are mine!”

How can my parents eat sushi so leisurely? Unbelievable.

“Calm down, Ha-kun. I’ll explain everything step by step.”

“Step by step?”

“First of all, I am——a time traveler.”

“——Yes?”

“You see, I am not the Touka Himegi you know, but rather, I am Touka Himegi from six years in the future. I’m a future person.”

What is this person saying? Touka Himegi from six years in the future?

I don’t understand…I can’t grasp anything at all.

I hope I misheard.

“I admit, you do appear more mature than the Himegi-san I know, but to call yourself a future person… It’s just too absurd.”

However, there’s one thing I am certain of. She is undoubtedly Touka Himegi herself.

I can’t explain it well, but I’ve been watching Himegi-san for a long time, so I can tell.

The woman in front of me isn’t a look-alike or anything like that; she is the genuine Touka Himegi.

“Hmph, I knew you wouldn’t believe me! …well, it’s to be expected. Everything is as it should be.”

She tries to take something out of her designer bag.

“Surely you’re not going to tell me that bag is evidence from the future, right?”

“Rest assured. I’m going to show you something more convincing right now.”

And with that, Himegi-san proudly takes out a red smartphone from her bag.

“If you look at this, I think you’ll be convinced that I came from the future. In fact, this smartphone is evidence that I’m from the future. After all, this device is a new model of smartphone that doesn’t exist in the present time.”

She handed me the red smartphone, and I accepted it.

This is a smartphone from the future? It’s just a regular smartphone…

“I see…so this is a smartphone being sold in the future…”

“Ah! That expression clearly shows you still don’t believe it. Then I’ll show you the video inside. If you see that, even someone as stubborn as you should believe me!”

She takes the smartphone from my hand and starts doing something with it.

“See, you should be convinced after watching this.”

Then she holds the smartphone up to my face.

I focus on the screen, and the video seems to be taken in a luxury hotel somewhere.

“Hmm? Mom and Dad and Himegi-san?”

The smartphone screen displayed my parents, a boy and a girl who appeared to be around five years old, and Himegi-san in a wedding dress of the same design as the current one, all in what looked like a luxurious hotel.

I glance at my father and mother, who are eating sushi and nikujaga for a moment.

“Mom and Dad are oddly dressed up in fashionable tailcoats and black kimonos…”

The two in the screen appeared a little older.

Yeah, Mom had gained a little weight, and Dad’s forehead had gotten wider.

“Wait, who are the children waving while saying ‘Big brother, do your best!’? Did we have such young cousins or something?”

“—Those children are your twin sister and brother.”

“What? My twin sister and brother?”

What is this person talking about? I’ve been an only child since I was born.

There’s no such thing as a younger sister or brother in this world.

Unable to grasp the situation, I gaze at my silent parents and ask for an explanation.

Then, my father places his chopsticks down and speaks for the first time.

“Well, you see… Hakuba, you’re going to be a big brother soon.”

“Huh?”

“Ha-chan, Mommy’s tummy has two babies inside.”

My mother lovingly touches her belly with a gentle expression.

I’ve only noticed it now, but my mother’s belly has grown larger.

So, that’s what it is. Then, I’ll become a big brother soon…

“I see… Well, um, congratulations to both of you.”

” “Thank you!” “

And with that, I stand up.

” ” “——Ahahaha! ! !” ” “

Everyone bursts into a good laugh. Oh man, this is such a joyous occasion.

I never thought I’d become a big brother at sixteen.

Well, it’s probably a lie though. I bet they just put something in her belly…

“Sigh… If my future looks like that video, I’m sure I’ll be really happy.”

I plop down on the seat and gaze at the smartphone screen with a complicated expression.

From what I gather from the video, it seems that we were invited to Himegi’s wedding.

Even in the setting of a video, it’s genuinely heartwarming to know that I’ll still be connected with her six years from now.

Honestly, I had given up today after she rejected me.

After graduation, we’d each walk different paths and never cross each other’s paths again.

It’s sad, but that’s what I had imagined.

Yet my family and I were invited to Himegi-san’s wedding in the video. Even if it’s a fabricated video, it makes me happy.

If I’m in a position to celebrate Himegi-san becoming a bride, it’s genuinely an honor.

If such a future exists, I hope it comes true.
