Inma no Hado chapter 258: Apology for humiliation
“d.a.m.n!! How did this happen!! d.a.m.n itt!!!”
s.h.i.+oya, who sits on a sofa in a high-cla.s.s cabaret club in Ginza, has been repeatedly spreading the words of anger from the beginning. Because he is already drunk, he releases his mind and his voice is louder and louder.
“Drink! Give me a drink! I'm an irresistible guy!!”
When the empty gla.s.s is presented wildly, the hostess from the side receives it while frowning out of fear and hatred. s.h.i.+oya has been hated from the beginning by the hostesses showing such an arrogant att.i.tude, but they have been enduring because this senior executive of a construction company still has good money payment. However, his att.i.tude today is not the usual ratio. Screaming from the side, he has been drinking alcohol for a while.
“d.a.m.n it! Keiko!! Why don't you want to meet me directly!!”
In the daytime, remembering what happened at the lawyers office, a black anger is rising from the bottom of his belly again. He takes a breath of Bourbon, leaving himself to his ferocious anger. His drunken eyes are b.l.o.o.d.y red and angry because of the alcohol and no one cares.
Today he met with his wife´s lawyer, a lawyer, but Keiko wasn't there. According to the young female lawyer, Keiko is shocked by s.h.i.+oya's violence and rape action, that she is physically and mentally injured and she is staying at her home. Keiko strongly wants to divorce and seems to say that she doesn't want to see his face again.
(Why doesn't she meet me! Does she know how much…I'm in trouble, no she doesn't know!!)
A few days ago, he was called by the president, Keiko's father and was informed that Keiko wants a divorce. The partner whom he is together since middle school age and got married to. Of course it was a shock for s.h.i.+oya till the end, but after he left the president's office, he gradually realized the seriousness of the matter. Rumors were spreading in no time and the company air was changing.
Originally, although there was some ability, it is because it was a premise to succeed the mark as the son-in-law of the owner-and-president that s.h.i.+oya climbed up to his current position of managing director. Otherwise, he cant be a senior in just 10 years. And if he gets divorced with Keiko, he won't be tempted immediately, but he will lose the future of being the president.
(Don't go there! I always do this …)
When it was time to drop flying birds, many employees came to him. However, when rumors of divorce with Keiko flowed, the tides disappeared and s.h.i.+oya was forced into an isolated situation within a short time. The change was frighteningly extreme and rapid, although it was only a matter of days. That's exactly what it is.
(Wh …why am I ignored!!)
Besides, he heard that the accounting department is under the command of the president and he investigates his expenses behind the scenes. As senior managing director, s.h.i.+oya is also in charge of external communication activities and is also in a position to use a lot of expenses for things such as entertainment. The good thing is that some of the receipts that cant be said to be entertaining have been put under the t.i.tle of the managing director, but it seems that the accounting has now been re-checked again. If all the details are investigated, it is possible that the price for bars and clubs used so far privately, as well as hot spring trips with mistresses and expensive shopping tours may come to light.
(Why…why did it become such a situation…? d.a.m.n it!!)
s.h.i.+oya has been asking this question many times since that day. However, of course he cant turn back on what he did. He was drunk and he didn't remember it well, but at that time he certainly beat his wife over and over again and forced her to have s.e.x with him. However, he doesnt think that it was rape and he thinks that it is also a part of being a couple to use a bit of violence. It is a ugliness that every couple experiences. Even though….
(Why…why am I divorced like this…)
s.h.i.+oya met with the female lawyer who said that she was a legal agent of Keiko and was told that the procedure for the future was administratively explained and as he tried to reverse it, somehow the meeting end. Keiko, who insists on a divorce, is demanding a large amount of compensation and property sharing and in some cases, it is also said that she will not refuse to fight legally, even in view of prosecution for rape crimes. After that, she went to the doctor immediately and received a diagnosis for five weeks, so that would be enough evidence for a lawyer to work with. It seems that they carefully took a record of the wounds that occurred in the genital region and the s.e.m.e.n residue left in the womb as a sample.
“Oh, s.h.i.+o-chan…. It's pretty rough today, isn't it…?”
As s.h.i.+oya scratched his hair, a woman's voice came from above his head. Looking up with muddy red eyes, he can see the bewitching laugh of a woman in a sparkling sequin dress. Her brown-dyed hair is long, with a white, thin face that looks good on her. The woman who has an outstanding style even from above the dress was the number one flower of this cabaret.
“…!!!”
Next to that flower is a face that s.h.i.+oya knows well. At first glance, he sees a mediocre face that has no characteristics and once he has confirmed who it is, a huge black rage shakes his whole body
“Yo, Yooouuuu!!!!”
s.h.i.+oya who raises a angry cry tries to beat that person. However, when he tried to stand up, his body shook, lost its balance and s.h.i.+oya fell on the sofa. His body collides with the gla.s.s table at the time and the cups and bottles arranged on it make a jerky noise and scatter on the floor.
“Kyaaaaa!!”
“What are you doing!!”
The scream of the number one flower and the voice of an employee is heard. The customers standing around watch for a while and a man standing calmly looks down at his former cla.s.smate who exposes such a state.
“Ah, s.h.i.+oya…. You, why are you so drunk?”
“…You…Midou…”
s.h.i.+oya, who is so drunk that he cant stand properly, grabs Kenichi while falling half on the sofa. This person was bullied by s.h.i.+oya during middle school days. That timid and nerdy child is now looking at himself with a half laugh.
“You… you, put your hands on Keiko!!”
“What are you saying? I don't know…. You, just calm down…”
Kenichi sat in a small round chair placed in front of s.h.i.+oya across the table, signaling that it was okay.
“What are you doing! You…you've slept with Keiko!!”
s.h.i.+oya who vomits these words shouts and glares with wild beast-like eyes. He's too angry and it's difficult for him to breathe, so it's just a shout that makes the words spin.
“What are you talking about? …Ah, you´re not talking about that…”
Kenichi, on the other hand, was stunned, relaxed, and not loose. Even if the other person who was bullying him during middle school is furious, there is no sign of hesitation at all. Perhaps because of the calm att.i.tude, the surroundings gradually calm down and the afraid flower stays besides Kenichi.
“What you thought about is wrong, on that day… I haven't done anything!”
“…That's a lie!”
“A lie…? That day I eat normally with Ogawsa, and then we drank at a bar for a while…. I'm sorry that she got home late, but on that day the traffic was terrible as everything crowded together…”
“Stop bulls.h.i.+tting me! Such an excuse…”
“Excuse? Why do I have to excuse myself? Didn't we agreed on that I and Ogawa have dinner at night?”
“Then…Then, why…『Thanks for the meal』…”
“What…? Ah, what's that…. Ogawa asked me to go to the bar, so I hope to say thank you. Sending a thank-you email is so strange!”
Kenichi answers sloppily while drinking a gla.s.s of water brought by Kanon. The answer is natural without hesitation or misery, and he answers naturally. His self-confident att.i.tude to look straight into s.h.i.+oya´s eyes, let the momentum of s.h.i.+oya's good momentum gradually became an a.s.shole.
“If so…if so, why didn't she contact me that it will be so late!”
“Uh? I don't know that…but if you say so, before I meet her, I feel like she said she used her cell phone too much when she was shopping with her friends and that there was almost no battery…”
“Ba, battery!?”
“Ah…yes. In order to buy clothes for you, it seems that she went with her friends and a couple of men to the men's clothes section in a row…and when she was looking at the time, she saw that she didn't had much battery left… ”
“Th, That…is that so…?”
Kenichi said that and s.h.i.+oya remembers. That day, Keiko was carrying a large amount of paper bags, who s.h.i.+oya thought contain clothes that Keiko had bought for herself. He didn't knew the contents of the bag that was scattered when I was raping Keiko after he got drunk and regretted what he did now.
“Hey…why don't we go to the box seats over there?”
Kanon who has been listening to Kenichi's conversation with s.h.i.+oya and got bored asked this question. The number one popular girl of this cabaret has put on flashy makeup, but her original face is also a well-knitted and she is a good-looking beauty. The tone of the flower that usually is arrogant somewhere, is now trying to flirt with Kenichi who is next to her.
“Hey, Ken-chan. Because there are people here, let's go to that place…”
Kanon invites with a soothing voice while rubbing the chest of her dress with her arms. s.h.i.+oya finally notices that and looks like he saw something unbelievable. That's not too bad. It was because of Kanon that s.h.i.+oya used to go to this store for a long time and was aiming at her all the time. The impervious beauty acts like a beloved lover towards Kenichi.
“…You guys…what…. Since when…”
“What is it…? …Uhuhuhu…. Speaking of which, it was s.h.i.+o-chan who first introduced Ken-chan to this shop. Thank you for introducing such a wonderful person…”
While clinging to Kenichi's arm with both hands, Kanon gives her thanks to s.h.i.+oya. s.h.i.+oya is convinced from the air between these two that they already have a s.e.xual relations.h.i.+p. At the same time, astonishment, jealousy and hatred come from the bottom of his heart.
After all, Kenichi and s.h.i.+oya, in addition to Kanon and the hostess called Momoko, they moved to the box seats. The small but private rooms are soundproofed with equipment that allows karaoke.
“Ah, I wanted to see you…Ken-chan…”
Two people sit each on one side of the box seats. As soon as Kenichi get to his seat, the number one hostess Kanon hugs Kenichi. Ignoring the presence of s.h.i.+oya in front of them like air, they kiss deeply as it is.
“Aaamuuuu…muhuuuu…”
“Amazing…Kanon-san…”
s.h.i.+oya is stunned and Momoko is licking her lips as if she is charmed by this act. Kanon is a beautiful woman who usually has pride and has the att.i.tude of a queen, but now she is flirting with a mediocre man in front of two other people. Kenichi tightly embraces the slender waist of Kanon, entangles his tongue with her tongue, drinks sweet saliva and advances his hand to the inside of the skirt without hesitation.
“Muhuuuuu!!”
It's just that, Kanon is shaking her body while kissing. It's obvious to anyone that she has reached a s.e.xual acme and she is so crazy even while not having s.e.x at all.
“Yaah…Ken-chan…. Me too…Me too…”
Somehow feeling it unbearable to endure it besides s.h.i.+oya Momoko stood up and hugged Kenichi from the other side. As she bite and kiss his neck, she presses her well-grown body against Kenichi. Kenichi responds to such Momoko with deep kisses and opens his arm and now holds two beautiful women. Both are boldly hooked as if they cant let go off Kenichi.
(It is a lie…why…such a person…)
A dark nerd who has been hated by all female cla.s.smates in the past. To the unbelievable sight that a beautiful woman gathers around this man, s.h.i.+oya who does not know about the Inma inside Kenichi is surprised.
“Huuhh…then, you cant meet Ogawsan?”
“…Yes. Even if I want to talk, I can only get in touch with her lawyer…”
s.h.i.+oya, who talked about the past and the current situation in a private box in that high-cla.s.s club, drinks his gla.s.s at once so as to swallow all bitter things. He isn't particularly close to Kenichi in front of him. However, in addition to being intoxicated, his head was being squeezed, he was pushed by the atmosphere emitted by his former cla.s.smate and he explained the past behavior as he was questioned. s.h.i.+oya is silent to say that he forced Keiko to have s.e.x by raping her.
“d.a.m.n! …Speaking of the original, that day because you invite Keiko, it became such a situation!”
“Hey, calm down. That's something you've done yourself. What did you really do during that day?”
“What!! Youu!!! …Uh…”
s.h.i.+oya tried to grab Kenichi´s chest in an instant by anger, but when he lift up his waist, he is stared at by three pairs of cold, stabbing eyes. One man and two beautiful girls who cuddle from the left and right. 6 horribly cruel eyes stare at s.h.i.+oya with hate.
“What's up with your wife, for doing such a crazy thing. Listen to what you said, you're not all that bad!”
“If you put your hand on Ken-chan, you will pay for it. …Because it's really serious”
Kanon and Momoko glare with cold eyes at s.h.i.+oya as if they see a wild beast. Originally from the Ikebukuro area, they are two people who were famous for fighting. Being pushed by that force, s.h.i.+oya sits down again. Even though he has bullied Kenichi in middle school, now this guy is his only source and s.h.i.+oya is addicted to those who he cant get.
“Well well…. If you lower your head, I can contact Ogawa and see if she will meet you”
“What! Why…should I…”
“Is there any other way? Well, you don't need to do it if you don't like it. …I'm fine either way”
“Guuu … d.a.m.n you!!”
s.h.i.+oya bites his teeth and holds his fist. His drunken face is becoming increasingly redder and the blood vessels on his forehead are bloating. While watching s.h.i.+oya, Kenichi smiles while Kanon and Momoko have heavy crystal ashtrays in their hands, to hit s.h.i.+oya anytime if he becomes violate.
“You have bullied me during middle school and I haven't forgotten about that…. You apologize for it right now. Taking off my pants, pouring water over me, hitting me all the time and I have been forced to have thumbtacks in my shoes…. If you apologize for everything, I will contact Ogawa for you”
The eyes of Kenichi who is grinning are as cold as ice. The three years of h.e.l.lish bullying reside deep inside Kenichi´s heart and it will never disappear for years to come.
“Guu…da, d.a.m.n…!!!”
Humiliation and rage. Chewing his lips and desperately resist the soaring pa.s.sion. A black hot emotion erupts inside s.h.i.+oya´s heart. But for s.h.i.+oya now, there is nothing else to do.
