For Some Reason, the School Goddess Likes to Hang Out at My House - CH 51

The Goddess has been kicked out?
Is that even reasonable?
And no, I don’t think that’s only true for the goddess.
And no matter what the justification, kicking her out is something that should not be done.
It’s nothing but abandonment and neglect…
My mouth twisted as anger welled up in my head.
“…Um, Towa-kun, your face is a little scary, isn’t it?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I was just thinking about something.”
“Oh, I see…”
“So, what happened?”
I took a deep breath and calmed down from what was bothering me.
Then I looked straight into Rin’s face.
“In the morning, when I got home…”
“Morning? Did you go home already?”
“Yes. I wanted to take a bath while Towa-kun was sleeping…I didn’t want you to think I smelled like sweat.”
“I don’t care about that.”
“I’ll worry about it!!”
“Oh.”
I flinched involuntarily at the goddess’ forcefulness.
But I understood.
That’s why she was wearing a jersey and had a towel on …
“Didn’t you take a bath at home?”
“Because I was kicked out before that. I felt bad, but I borrowed one from Towa-kun’s house. So I got a change of clothes…”
The end of the sentence suddenly became quiet, and she began to fidget and cast her eyes down.
I had a bad feeling about this, but my eyes couldn’t help but stare at the goddess’ figure.
“C-could it be that you’re not wearing any…underwear?”
“I’m wearing it! I don’t have the guts to do that yet! I brought the bare necessities with me when I left! But for some reason, my underwear is black…” (TL Note: After looking this up, black underwear (according to pop culture, don’t take this literally!) can be a sign that a girl is looking to have sex.)
“Black?”
“It’s nothing! I’ll keep my mouth shut about this!”
“Oh, I see. ……”
I’ve been under a lot of pressure from the goddess since a while ago…
However, the current goddess does not seem to be calm as usual, and I feel that she is somewhat upset.
Well, it’s natural if you’re suddenly kicked out…
“I’ll leave the clothes out of this for now. Can you tell me why that happened?”
“That’s right… I’m sorry I got derailed.”
“No, don’t worry about it.”
I fluttered my hand to encourage her to continue.
If we talk about clothes any longer, I’m going to hear things I shouldn’t…
“Actually, I only talked to my mom about the sleepover. My dad found out about it later…”
“I see, that’s why he was so furious.”
It is true that some parents do not allow their children to stay out overnight.
Especially when it’s a girl.
But.
“This is why parents should think about their children a little more and listen to them —”
“No, my dad’s not mad, you know.”
“Yeah?”
“It’s my mother who’s angry.”
I tilt my head.
I can’t quite grasp the whole story.
The mother who gave permission is angry?
The father is not angry?
“Well, I have no idea what you mean at all…Maybe you were involved in a marital dispute or something like that?”
“No, Towa-kun. It’s not that my parents don’t get along or that they don’t think about me. In fact, I’d say we have a good relationship with each other.”
“Hmm? Is that so?”
“Yes. So, I don’t have to reprimand him unreasonably, and my father loves me so much that anyone can see it.”
“But your father told you to get out, didn’t he? Doesn’t that mean that you made him very angry?”
“Let’s see…”
Rin awkwardly diverts her gaze.
And I started talking quietly.
“In short ‘Dad angered mom trying to dig up information and hear about her daughter.’”
“…So, why did you get kicked out?”
“It’s very hard to say, but she didn’t want me to see her angry and pathetic self, so she kicked me out. I’ve been there before…”
“Eh… what’s going on?”
My mouth opens wide like an idiot and I go blank.
I’m so dumbfounded I can’t even speak.
“Maybe it’s about the time when my mom is beat him black and blue.”
“Mother… I’m scared”
“She’s usually kind, though?”
“But don’t you think it would be pitiful to kick you out? There’s a lot of things you need to address and prepare and spend time on.”
“That’s not a problem.”
Rin showed me a bag that she didn’t have with her when she came yesterday.
It’s a rather compact travel bag.
“What’s this?”
“This is the ‘kicked out’ set.”
“Oi, that’s an unpleasant set name.”
“In it you’ll find a change of clothes, a box of sweets, and a few other things you’ll need. The rest is letters…This is for Towa-kun.”
“Folding sweets…Hmm…It’s no longer an annual event.”
I sighed and took the envelope containing the letter from Rin.
Then I tore open the carefully sealed envelope and took out the letter inside.
◇◇◇
Dear Tokiwagi
Thank you for always taking care of my daughter.
I’m sorry for the inconvenience this time.
My foolish husband’s “education” was urgently needed.
This is how it turned out.
If there was a lumberjack fountain, I would have thrown him in. (TL Note: Doraemon reference)
I can’t find one, so I’ll deal with it here.
So please take care of Rin until his education is complete.
I’m really sorry for being so selfish.
I look forward to talking to you as well.
From Rin’s mother
◇◇◇
So this is what’s inside…
It’s very well written…
Huh, I guess I’ll lose if I worry about this “education” part.
“Sometimes this happens, so I usually stay at Kotone’s house until things cool down…”
“What about today?”
“Well, she said she was going to spend some time alone with Kato-san, so I thought I shouldn’t disturb her…”
“So by process of elimination, you ended up at my place.”
“Yes…although it’s very unbearable to be taken care of two days in a row.”
I remembered the message from Kenichi.
That’s what you meant by “Well, good luck.”
“Well, I don’t mind, but…How many days?
“Well, usually a day at most. She’ll let me know once things settle down.”
“I see…Just stay here until things settle down.”
“Thank you very much.”
“Don’t thank me. I’m the one who’s always doing the thanking.”
“I know I’m not very good at this, but please look after me.”
I had no choice but to smile at Rin who bowed her head politely.
Well, it would be nice if it was about a day …
While thinking about that, I looked up at the sky and took a deep breath.
TL Note: After seeing Lepxy comment on chapter 49, I realized that leaving chapters on cliffhangers probably wasn’t the best Idea. So, in that scenario I’ll just do a double update to save everyone some trouble. As for the update schedule, I won’t commit to anything this time, but do except more frequent updates.
