Chapter 14

Its been two months since Shihou confess his feelings to Mayumi. Mayumi can still feel butterflies in her stomach whenever she remembers the confession. Gladly no one has noticed their relationship yet!
Shihou said they shouldn't announce it until all the problems have been settled. Mayumi suddenly remembers something, even though their relationship was a secret to the others. Shihou introduces her to his family as his girlfriend, and his family promises to make it a secret.
***•••***•••***•••***
"Are you sure about this, Shihou? Aren't you the one who wanted this relationship to stay a secret for now?" she asks. They are currently standing outside the Isami house. Shihou held her hand nervously. He told her that he wanted to let his family know about her being his girlfriend. It causes Mayumi to get confused because he is the one who desires it to be a secret in the first place.
"I don't want to! But Sayuri found out about it and told everyone, don't worry, they promise to keep it a secret!"
"It's alright, and I trust everyone, so no biggie!" Mayumi said with a beautiful smile on her face causing his heart to stop beating. Shihou suddenly hugs her in a warm embrace causing her butterflies to go wild in her stomach. He kisses her forehead as he pulls away from her. The admiration and love are visible in his eyes.
"Don't get nervous, okay? After all, you've already met them before!" she nods, hugging him as she nuzzles her face within his shirt, whispering the words he loves to hear from her.
"I love you!" Shihou smiles and kisses the top of her head.
"I love you too!" they stay in there as they continue to share their love for one another, not noticing the two pairs of eyes watching them.
"They're really in love with each other!" Keisuke said with amusement in his eyes.
"I am happy they're already together now! Brother and Mayu are already in a relationship! I'm so happy I feel like I'm going to cry!" Sayuri said with a big smile on her face.
Keisuke looks at his younger sister seeing tears forming in her eyes. Keisuke is happy to see his little sister happy. After all, the little girl is already carrying a heavy burden in her hands with her frail body.
"And also, we already have something to tease him about!" Keisuke said, smirking.
"Let me introduce her again to all of you. She is Amagi Mayumi, my chosen bride..." Shihou said as he glanced at Mayumi with a smile on his face while squeezing her hands at the same time.
"T-thank you for the invitation!" Mayumi said shyly and bowed down. She's nervous! Isami Chousei stood in front with a stern face causing her to get more nervous. The girl startles when Chousei suddenly smiles, making the girl blink in confusion.
"Amagi Mayumi, we welcome you into our humble family!" Mayumi saw all of them smiling happily at her making her nervousness disappear. She startles when suddenly Sayuri grabs both of her hands.
"Mayu, I'm genuinely happy right now! I'm so glad that it was you and not anyone else, because I know you well and I don't have to worry! And also, can I call you sister-in-law now?" Sayuri said happily.
"Sayu!" Shihou exclaims as Mayumi chuckle awkwardly.
"Now, stop that already, and let's go eat!" Chousei said as they started to go to the dining room to bond.
***•••***•••***•••***
Thinking again about it makes her butterflies go wild in her stomach. She was on her way to the Isami house right now, finally in the mansion. The guards greet and guide her into the living room. When she reached the living room, she saw Sayuri watching tv.
"Sayu! Where's your brother?" Sayu turned around, and as she saw Mayumi. She quickly tackles her in a hug.
"Sister-in-law, I'm very please you're here! I need you to do something for me, can you?"
"Hmm? Okay, what is it?" she curiously asks what the little girl needs.
Shihou is busy doing his work that he doesn't have much time to eat. He knows that it's not good for his health. He also knows that if he gets ill because of a lack of time to rest. He will receive a big lecture from Mayumi, even though all he wants right now is to lie down already. But he can't because he needs to finish this as soon as possible. He's so focused on his work that he does not hear Mayumi entering the room.
"Shihou?" he startles, hearing her voice. He forgot that every Saturday, she always visits him to hang out. She suddenly arrives with him, currently busy, causing his head to spin because he doesn't know what to do. In the end, he let his instinct do the tasks.
"Sorry, Mayumi, but I'm so busy that I don't have time to entertain you!" Shihou said while rubbing his temples.
Mayumi can see that he is so stressed right now, and by the looks of it, he still hasn't taken his breakfast yet. Sayuri was right Shihou needed her help. He looks at her with sadness in his eyes, he wants to be with her right now, but he needs to finish his work.
"Shihou..." he looks up and startles when she suddenly kisses him on the forehead.
"Mayu... mi?" she cups his cheeks with her hands and smiles lovingly at him.
"Shihou, you need to rest. I don't want you to get sick! If you need to finish that, you should at least eat because you'll not have enough energy to finish that. Common eat already then after that I'll help you with that!" Mayumi said, the smile never leaving her face.
He is so happy he has her! He's so lucky to have a girl like her that he thinks of what he did do good to deserve someone like her. He never imagines that he will end up with his mentor's daughter. But still, he was so happy to have her on his side.
He stands up and hugs her with all his love for her, and she happily hugs him back. He was glad Mayumi was there to make all his stress go away. The two share a loving embrace of each other, not noticing the two pairs of eyes watching them.
"That's amazing! She manages to stop him from working so he can rest! I expect nothing less from Mayu-chan!" Keisuke said in amazement as they peeked to watch the two.
"I'm happy for my brother and sister-in-law!" Sayuri said happily and looked at her big brother.
"I hope they should announce their relationship soon..." Keisuke said as he still kept looking at the two.
"Yeah, you're right, big brother!" Sayuri said, smiling. Keisuke returns the smile.
Keisuke knew the real reason why Shihou did not want to announce it yet. Because Miya Tennou likes her to be his bride, if the Miya family gets a grasp of their relationship, the Isami family will be at risk. Shihou is making his happiness come true, and at the same time, he is protecting their family. The problem Shihou enter is so risky! And yet Keisuke and the others are happy seeing him do it.
"How about you, big brother?" the question brought him back to reality. He looked at his younger sister, confused, not understanding what she meant.
"Huh?"
"When will you have a lover? You only have seven years left!"
He chuckles before ruffling his sister's head. The question was left unanswered, causing his little sister to pout. He still has a lot of time to look for him to worry about his love life. For now, he will support his little brother first.
