Chapter 63: Things Have Come to This, Let's Enjoy First
Regarding this issue, Aragaki Takiya didn't have a clue. After all, he had never experienced anything like this. Combined with his other selves from those two worlds, it gave him a sense of confusion, and mixed within that confusion was a hint of fear... If he really pursued one of them according to the timeline, then... what would happen to the other?
Aragaki Takiya didn't dare speak his thoughts aloud. He was now caught in a difficult dilemma. However, if he knew Shiina Kaede's identity, then Shiina Mahiru should also know by now.
"Do I have to give up on Moeha?"
This thought suddenly popped into Aragaki Takiya's mind, but it only appeared for a moment before he quickly suppressed it.
"What am I thinking? Problems have only just appeared, and I'm already thinking of the worst-case scenario."
"Hey, hey, Papa, come with me to find Mama. Mama will definitely accept you, and then I won't disappear..."
"Wait! Kaede, what do you mean by 'disappearing'?"
Hearing Shiina Kaede's words, Aragaki Takiya suddenly caught the keyword.
"Disappearing is..."
Hearing her father's question, Shiina Kaede recounted her personal experience, but this news wasn't exactly good news for Aragaki Takiya.
"So it really works like that..."
Looking at the two Little Lolis, one older and one younger, in front of him, an idea formed in Aragaki Takiya's mind.
"If I choose one of their mothers, it will cause the other to disappear. But what if I choose both..."
"What am I saying? The odds of that are even lower than winning the lottery."
After all, Eriri and Shiina Mahiru were both well-known figures at school, while he was just an ordinary person. With his abilities, being able to pursue even one of them would already be considered a legend. If he wanted to pull off a harem like in novels... "Forget it, I won't think about it for now. Compared to such a difficult task, maintaining the status quo is key."
Clearing the cluttered thoughts from his mind, Aragaki Takiya began to observe the two Little Lolis. At the same time, he had a plan for the current situation.
"Do you want to go to the Amusement Park?"
"Eh??? x2"
"But Mama..."
"And ice cream."
"No problem! Papa, let's go quickly!"
Along with Aragaki Takiya's sugar-coated bullets raining down, the two Little Lolis' attention was instantly diverted. Especially Shiina Kaede; she had missed her father dearly and got her wish today, and now he was taking her to the Amusement Park, something she usually dreamed of.
"I'll just stabilize them like this for now. After all, that kind of thing is still a bit too cruel for them..."
Looking at the two now-happy Little ones, Aragaki Takiya could only decide to maintain this relationship for the time being. After all, according to Shiina Kaede's words, the cause of the problem should lie with him. It was because he came into contact with other girls that such a situation occurred.
Having given an action plan, he naturally had to see it through. At least, that's what Aragaki Takiya was doing now. He was patiently making preparations to go out, including having the two Little Lolis apply sunscreen and checking his wallet.
"So, are you ready?"
"Ready!"
"I'm ready too..."
Along with the two voices sounding one after the other, the two Little ones were ready. It just so happened that Aragaki Takiya had bought sun hats for Aragaki Moeha, and since he hadn't bought just one, Shiina Kaede also put on a small sun hat.
Once everything was ready, the group of three set off. Along the way, because of the two Little Lolis' cute looks and different hair colors, passersby kept turning their heads. Left with no choice, Aragaki Takiya had to pick up his pace.
"I wonder how the 'me's from those two worlds managed to pursue them. Truly impressive..."
Recalling the feeling of being watched just now, Aragaki Takiya didn't feel any pride or ego. On the contrary, he just felt that his counterparts in the other two worlds were truly powerful. If only he had that kind of strength... "Look, we're here. Tell me what you want to play; Big Brother is paying for everything today."
Arriving at the Amusement Park closest to home, Aragaki Takiya stopped and spoke to the two Little ones beside him.
"There are so many people! Big Brother, come with us."
Looking at the surrounding crowds and the various entertainment facilities, Shiina Kaede's playful side was piqued. Compared to her, Aragaki Moeha was much quieter. Her old problem of social anxiety was acting up again. Even though she didn't need to interact with anyone, just looking at the surrounding crowds caused a feeling of discomfort to well up in her heart.
"Don't worry, Moeha. Big Brother is here."
Sensing Aragaki Moeha's unease beside him, Aragaki Takiya gently took her small hand. In fact, if Shiina Kaede hadn't come today, he would have taken Aragaki Moeha out to play alone anyway.
After all, he always remembered the state she was in when they first met. Although there were still many uncertainties regarding Aragaki Moeha's future, Aragaki Takiya didn't care about all that.
At the very least, his current mission was to turn her into a normal, happy child.
"Mm, I'm fine, Big Brother."
Feeling the warmth from his palm, Aragaki Moeha also cheered up. After all, now was not the time to be gloomy. This was the first time the Papa of this world had taken her to an Amusement Park; she had to be happy no matter what.
"Then let's go. Kaede, in terms of age, you're the older sister, so don't forget to look after Moeha..."
"Don't worry, Big Brother, leave it to me."
Although there was still an implicit rivalry between Shiina Kaede and Aragaki Moeha, clearly neither of them was dwelling on it at the moment.
After all, their Papa's purpose for coming to the Amusement Park today was to have fun, and aside from that rivalry, they were still good friends. So naturally, Shiina Kaede took on the role of the older sister.
With the relationships handled, it was naturally time to enjoy themselves. However, the main focus of this outing was Shiina Kaede and Aragaki Moeha, while Aragaki Takiya became the companion. But for Aragaki Takiya, watching the two Little ones play happily was a form of enjoyment in itself.
Don't get him wrong, Aragaki Takiya wasn't that kind of lolicon... it was just that seeing the smiles of those two Little ones really gave him a sense of peace.
Although their happiness was built upon his wallet, for Aragaki Takiya, money was meant to be spent on things that were useful to him.
Now, as Aragaki Takiya watched the two Little ones play happily, his mood was also affected. Happiness cannot be faked, so for him... this was also a kind of enjoyment.
