Upside Down 59 Chapter 57: Ryu

It begins to rain as we return home from court, so once we get home, Chinatsu and I basically hole up in my room. Even though I know Akiyama's been dealt with and should no longer be a threat to me, I'm still on edge and extremely tense. Of course, she knows this and she's striving to help me relax.

G.o.d knows I love this girl. Most others would pat my back and tell me something like, 'It's over, let it go,' or to 'buck up.' Her? She kisses me, undresses me, and tells me to lay down, then begins to give me a ma.s.sage to relax me.

Wow! 76%, really, it's 76.15%, but why quibble. It's almost unbelievable. I don't truly draw a salary as CEO. How much I make depends on how well the corporation does that year. Yes, I'm paid once a year, but I receive a monthly stipend of ¥500,000 plus sundry other perks I won't be using, like a car and driver, housing allowance, and other similar things. Records show that Akiyama received ¥609,852,000 last year in addition to the stipend and it was bad year for the corporation. Of course, that's not counting what he made illegally.

Rolling over, I pull her down to me to hug her tightly. "Thank you, Chinatsu. I feel a lot better better now."

"I'm glad. You were really tense. Do you want to tell me why?"

"Several reasons. Akiyama's been dealt with and that's great. It makes me extremely happy they're going to hang him, but I have no idea yet who all was working with him at TGR. I have no idea who else he's told about my nanites and me. I'm not safe until I deal with the people that worked with him. Actually, I may never be safe. Who knows who they've told. The good thing is that he didn't know everything about my nanites. He knows they changed me, I'm fertile because of them, and that the virus will never affect me. Although, if anyone knows how long I'll live, that I'll never get sick, and that I'll pa.s.s these onto my children; it'll be a war zone around me. They'll probably never stop coming after me if they know all that. The simple fact that they stop me from getting sick and enable me to live a very long time is enough that people will do anything to get them."

"That's true, but it won't help men or infertile women."

I shrug slightly. "That alone won't stop them. They'll probably think it would be easy to adapt them. The programming for them is so complex and interdependent that I barely understand it. I doubt a level one AI would be able to change the code to help men without disabling the nanites. All of it works together. I've got a lot of studying ahead of me to figure all of this out so I can help Dad."

She raises up to look at me. "Sora. I'd love it if you could help Dad, but honestly, I think you're doing what you always have by taking on a far too large of a burden all by yourself. You never think to ask for help. I love you and I'd offer to help if I could, but I'm not smart enough to do that. What I can do is support you and give you advice. My advice is simple. Find the most brilliant people in this field, no matter where they're from, and bring them here to help you. If you try to do this on your own, you'll burn yourself out. It took both of your parents to create and program them. Ask for help and stop trying to do everything by yourself. You're no longer alone and you have a lot of people that love and need you."

She smiles at me. "Although, for right now, I'm going to make love to you and give you so many o.r.g.a.s.ms you won't be able to think about anything, other than how good you feel."

[Friday, June 5th]

She wasn't kidding last night. Kissing me, ma.s.saging my b.o.o.bs and playing with my nipples, never once touching my special place for over an hour, until I was sopping wet and begging her. The naughty grin she gave me as she slowly slides her hand along me to gently begin rubbing my jewel made it even harder for me to endure. She never let me touch her as she brought me to o.r.g.a.s.m repeatedly until I was completely exhausted. She was right though, everything, other than us and how she made me feel, totally disappeared.

Another busy day today. Airi at 10:00 and PT at 11:30. Gently waking Chinatsu at 6:00, we rise from bed, so we can bathe and cook for everyone. Also we drop by to collect Honoka as we make our way to the bath. When we are bathing this morning Honoka mentions Chinatsu's b.o.o.bs and how much larger they are, which makes Chinatsu happy of course. I told you, she has a complex about the size of her b.o.o.bs. Hopefully, this will cure it. We shall see.

After bathing and dressing, we make breakfast for everyone and I also make Dad a lunch to take with him. After I heard what he's been eating for lunch when we don't make his lunch, I'll be doing this everyday for him. I don't want him having a heart attack before I can hopefully adapt my nanites to help him. On second thought, it might be easier to just design some that will do the same things mine do for me. I don't know to be honest. I still have a lot to learn about biotechnology and programming them.

Airi does her usual and keeps after me the whole session when I don't want to talk about things and how they made me feel. Today we're talking about the men I killed and how I feel about it. Something I don't want to talk about and definitely don't want to even think about. Depressed, upset, angry, and anxious make up just a small part of what I'm feeling in this session. Running away from this won't help though and will probably just make things worse if I try. It's bad enough that Chinatsu has me move between her legs and is hugging me tightly. It's horrible when when intellectually you know you didn't have a choice in the matter, but emotionally you're conflicted as h.e.l.l. I've told you, I hate violence and it's killing me that I know I'd do the same thing again. Try imagining the stress that creates for me. Even so, I still plan to learn self-defense from my sister when I get strong enough. I'd be stupid not to do so. I have good reasons for learning it, and I have a feeling that I'll be needing to use that knowledge.

In a way, having PT after this is helpful. It allows me to burn off some of the stress from my session with Airi. Emi announced today we're doing a 'light general workout.' I've no idea why she says we, since all she does is show or tell me what she wants me to do and then watches while providing 'encouragement.'

By the end of the session, I'm exhausted, shaky, and don't even have the strength to even thank Honoka as she picks me up to carry me into the locker room where she and Chinatsu clean me up and help me dress. I truly hope this doesn't last much longer. It'll be nice when I don't have to be carried like a baby out of here after days like this. When we get out to the car, I lay my head in Chinatsu's lap and fall asleep before the driver can even pull off.

Honoka wakes us up at 5:00 because our friends are supposed to come over this evening. Keiko to bring her cla.s.s notes for the week and the others so we can hang out. I love Mayu's sense of humor. Aio and Ami are quick to smile and are very likable, and Keiko, well, as long as she helps me help Chinatsu, we're good. I'm sure I'll warm up to her soon. We should probably figure out something we can all do together to have fun, so I can get to know them better.

In the kitchen, I find Mama is really pale, so I make her go sit down and relax while I make dinner for tonight. I make Chinatsu's favorite. Hamburger steak and mushrooms with a ketchup and worcestershire sauce glaze. Fried potatoes with diced yellow onions and garlic. Along with sauteed broccoli, carrots, and asparagus. I make a lot, but there are barely any leftovers, so I suppose everyone liked it.

Our friends come over at 7:00 and I help everyone with their homework when they hit something hard. To me this is basic stuff and far too easy, but I know I'm nowhere near normal. Thankfully, I'm able to explain what they don't understand and somehow this is turned into me being chosen to help everyone every week. Aoi and Ami say my explanations are easier to understand than the teachers. Keiko is one of the top students, so she requires very little help from me. Mayu, well, that's a completely different story. She would do much better if she could sit still for longer than five seconds. Calling her hyper is far too mild. It's almost 9:00 when we finish, so we ask our driver to take them home.

Oh, right, I totally forgot to mention. I never got around to looking at the files Hestia uploaded to the laptop. I received a text from her telling me she added another sixteen files to look over as well. I also need to remember to look into why he shut down the Nanotech division. It makes very little sense to me considering how much profit that division made. The only thing I can think of for why he did it is to hide something.

[Sat.u.r.day, June 6th]

Not much different than normal today. Wake up, bathe, cook breakfast, then Mama, Chinatsu, Honoka, and I go to NTI for our usual poking, prodding, and stabbing session with Dr. Sato. I mention to him about Chinatsu's b.o.o.bs and hips which nets her an MRI. Unsurprisingly, we're all healthy and no problems are found.

Back home, we eat and take a nap. Then Honoka, Chinatsu and I go shopping for new underwear for Chinatsu. First we get her measured. B 74, W 53, and H 82. She's now a B cup as well. She has a huge smile going after the clerk tells her. So, 5cm in her b.o.o.bs and 8cm for her hips. As I told you it would, it also turns into new underwear for me. We buy Honoka new underwear as well, because you never know when she might need it.

Everytime we stop for more than a minute, we are approached by boys. Although it doesn't really bother me per se, it's annoying when you're constantly interrupted. More so when a couple of the groups get very aggressive. It makes me wonder what the h.e.l.l they're thinking. Girls' politely tell you 'No thank you,' and that somehow means try harder?

Anyway, we're home for all of ten minutes when my phone rings. When I look at the screen to see who it is, my fatigue instantly disappears and a huge smile appears in its place.

Accepting the call, I say, "Hi Ryu."

"Hi Sora, are you busy?"

"Nope, we just got home a few minutes ago."

"Sorry I haven't called sooner, but this has been a busy week for me."

I chuckle. "It's alright, I've been rather busy myself."

"Are you free tomorrow?

"Well, I don't have anything planned."

"How would you feel about going to Playland Amus.e.m.e.nt Park tomorrow?"

"It sounds like fun, but I can't go alone. My sisters would have to come along."

"That's fine since my brother is coming too."

Ryu has an older brother. His name is Ryota and he's a third year. He's fourteen and big-time into sports, especially baseball and basketball.

"Okay, I have to ask my parents and sisters, but I'd love to go."

"Sora, I have to say this, Ryo's a nice guy, but he's a little impulsive. He tends to say or do things without thinking."

"Ooookay, well, thanks for the warning. Give me about fifteen minutes and call me. I'll have an answer for you by then."

After asking Mama and Dad about it, we're given permission to go. Chinatsu and Honoka both say it sounds like fun.

So, when Ryu calls me to get my answer, I tell him I can go. We talk for another twenty minutes before he says he has to go because his Dad wants him.

Now, I have to find something super cute to wear.
