Reincarnated As A Tutor (Quintessential Quintuplets x Reader)

Old Friend [55]

Once we were done in the classroom, I walked Ichika off so she could get her taxi and leave.

Y/N: You have a shoot tomorrow? What a pain.

Ichika: Sorry for being in such a rush, but it's nice that the six of us got together for the first time in a while.

Y/N: Yeah, it was nice. We miss you.

Ichika: Oh? I got to hear you confess all of a sudden. To say you love all five of us. That's very promiscuous of you, Y/N.

Y/N: Wh-What? Was it that bad..?

Her taxi pulled up.

Ichika: I think it's fine. Actually... I may not be able to come back. Can I hear your answer now?

Y/N: My answer to what?

Ichika: You say you love all five of us, but-

Y/N: I do. I meant what I said.

Ichika: But would you really be happy with just anyone?

Y/N: I... hm...

Ichika: Don't know? See, that's where your problem lies, Y/N. I think you need to give it some more thought before saying something so bold again.

She started getting into her taxi.

Y/N: You're so wise, big sis, Ichika... You somehow always know just what to say. That's what I love about you.

Her face went red.

Ichika: Y-You make it sound like you're choosing me.

Y/N: I'm choosing no one. At least not right now... I need more time to think.

Ichika: You might not have as much time as you believe.

She closed the taxi door and it drove off.

**Damn it, Ichika's right... I'd love to spend forever with all five of them, but that's not fair to their feelings, and that's also unrealistic... I need to think about it. But for now-**

As promised, I returned to Nino, who was waiting for me and walked around with her for a bit. I was intent on finding their father.

Y/N: Where is this guy... Still haven't heard anything from your father?

She quickly turned away.

Nino: No!-

**Maybe I should've waited a little longer before confessing to them. Nino's all flustered, now...**

I took out my phone and went through my contacts.

Y/N: I'll just call him, then.

Nino ran back and grabbed the phone.

Nino: Don't! It's fine... that's enough. I wasn't expecting anything to begin with.

I stared at her and she looked saddened.

Y/N: After you worked up all that courage to send him an invitation? Yeah, no... I'm not okay with this!

???: Ooh, they're over here, Raiha!

I looked over and saw my dad and Raiha.

Y/N: Pops, Raiha, hey.

Raiha: Jeez, what have you been doing, Y/N? We finally found you, but the day's almost over.

Y/N: My bad... I thought you guys said you wouldn't make it on the first day.

Raiha: Dad suddenly said we're going.

Y/N: Cool.

Nino: Your papa sure looks handsome no matter how many times I see him.

Y/N: The hell..? Uh, thanks?
