Chapter 185 : Adult Life

From then on, the days were all the same. Watching their daughter grow up every day was a true joy... . For Komi, Ishi was her perfect coach as well as her daughter's father. Now, she herself had matured and even become a beautiful woman. All men would want her. But she was only there for Ishi and Tadano too.

" Happy 5th Birthday, Hana ! "

Their little girl was now 5 years old. Komi beamed with pride as she watched Hana blow out the candles on her birthday cake.

" Happy birthday, my little star ! "

She exclaimed, hugging Hana tightly.

" Five years already... time flies when you're having fun. "

She turned to Ishi, her eyes shining with love and gratitude.

" Thank you, Ishi... for being such a wonderful uncle to our daughter. I couldn't have dreamed of a better partner, neither in parenting nor in life. "

Komi leans in and steals a quick kiss on the cheek.

" Now, let's sing « Happy Birthday » and enjoy the party with the little princess. "

Even though the truth about who the father was was hidden, by a funny coincidence, Hana got along perfectly with him and less so with Tadano. Not that she didn't love her dad, but she adored her uncle Ishi.

" Yes, let's sing together for her. "

Beautiful moments like that continued for years. And what happened, happened. Komi became pregnant with a second child and a third. The second, a boy, was Tadano's, but her third, a girl, was Ishi's.

" Time really flies. Now we have three children, two of them mine... we've worked hard, haven't we, Mom, Komi ? "

She smiles warmly, pride in her eyes.

" It's true, my dear uncle... . "

" Thanks to Tadano and you, Uncle Ishi, our family is complete. "

" But I have to admit... having three children has been a real adventure ! "

Komi laughs, her gaze drifting towards the window where she sees Tadano playing with the children in the garden.

" He's been so patient and understanding throughout. "

She sighs contentedly as she leans back on the sofa.

" And your Uncle Ishi... he's been our rock, our guide. "

Komi's expression turns thoughtful.

" Sometimes I worry that our unusual arrangement will cause problems later on... but for now, I choose to believe that love will eventually find a solution. "

Hana was 8 years old, her second child, Sora, 3, and her youngest, Yuki, 1. Of course, their secret was still well-kept. Komi was 29, a mother of three, but still as gorgeous as ever. Ishi had loved every moment since the first day he cheated on her. Now he had nothing to do. The lies were reality.

" Don't worry. Not knowing anything is best, and if it works out that way, just stay that way. "

She laughs softly, shaking her head.

" You're right, Ishi. Some secrets are better kept secret. "

She admits.

" As long as we have this... this bond between us... nothing else matters. "

Together, they'd done every possible thing imaginable. Threesomes with Agari, even Shûko fell for their scheme again, getting caught every year on her birthday... like a poisoned chalice.

" Let's just enjoy life, right ? Let's do what we do best, live !"

" Live ? That sounds good ! "

" Let's live like we've been living since college. "

She quickly pressed herself against him, sniffing his scent. For her, everything was perfect... there was nothing else that mattered. Komi and Ishi wanted to mark all these years properly. So they returned to the base. Under the pretext of a few days off with their wives, Komi managed to sneak off with Ishi to see... the sea ! The two arrived... at the seaside. The salty sea spray, the sun, and some time for themselves... just the two of them.

" We're finally here... The kids are with « daddy », so let's have some fun... . "

Komi smiles excitedly, bouncing on tiptoe as she admires the beautiful beach scenery.

" Yes, finally some special time together ! "

She exclaims happily, looping her arm through his.

" Just the two of us... no interruptions, no distractions. Perfect for... intimate activities. "

She gives him a playful wink, her eyes sparkling with mischief.

" Let's find a secluded spot, a place where we can be alone. "

Komi suggests, already scanning the shoreline for possibilities.

" I want to make the most of our time here… create unforgettable memories. "

She gently squeezes his arm, her voice dropping to a husky whisper. Komi leads him down the beach, her hips swaying seductively with every step. The sand isn't too hot. Just warm enough to bask in the sun. The men stared at Komi, but she only had eyes for him. Even at almost 30, Komi was a woman with a beauty that could turn a country upside down.

" Ishi come ! Let's go in the water !! "
