7 Chapter 7: Hibernation

Aika returned in a matter of seconds after having tucked Natsuki in and whispering in her ear that "if you heard any strange noise, do not get up as I would play a fun game with Goku who would make noise".

"I'm sorry if Natsuki has bothered you ... she bore the death of our parents very badly three years ago" Aika spoke, looking down with regret.

His parents died in a plane crash three years ago when they were celebrating their wedding anniversary, from there everything changed for the family.

Aika closed in on herself, she spent that month without leaving her room and crying every day for the terrible tragedy, in the last year she was able to get out of the emotional pothole by returning to her usual character.

Natsuki became an expressionless girl, on rare occasions she smiled when before her smile was the most characteristic thing in her, Aika knew that that had marked her life and her character a lot.

The eldest and first-born sister Kaori had to work day and night to support her sisters while she was studying at university, thank God she obtained a scholarship and now she worked in a major American pharmaceutical company, sending them money every month.

"Don't worry, we are all marked in one way or another by the death of a loved one" Goku spoke remembering the death of his grandfather.

"Have you lost someone too?" asked Aika, saying that phrase could only be possible if you had lived a similar experience.

"I lost my grandfather a few years ago, I rented the land where we lived and got a scholarship to study it here in Kuoh" Goku summed up his life in recent years in a simplified way.

"Do you have any work?  Even if it is not a five-star hotel, living here has its costs, right?" Aika asked feeling some curiosity.

Aika and her sister spent the minimum to avoid a high bill at the end of the month, with the money that Kaori sent her from the United States she paid for electricity, running water and gas.

Sometimes days went by without electricity or water so in those aspects the bill was not so high, the landlord offered to lower the rental price for Aika in exchange for services that Aika flatly refused to offer because she was denigrating.

If he wanted internet, he would go to a park or shopping center with free internet since that way he avoided more expenses, anyway the internet there was slow, most men complained about fiber optics since they needed a faster internet to perform your everyday needs.

"I work as a part-time waiter in a local, the owner is very kind so she allows me to be absent on the days when I have an internship with the group" the black-haired man replied. "You have?"

Aika came out of her mind when she imagined Goku dressed as a waiter with a tuxedo that marked his muscles, his thick chest and square abs of a Greek god and his p ...

'This is not the time!' Aika said to herself about to faint from a massive epistaxis, cursed her hormones.

"I had!  I worked in a bakery but they fired me because according to them I was driving away customers, can you believe it ?!" Aika cried furiously, she was still angry.

Goku smiled while scratching the back of his neck, the opposite was happening with him. Juhee congratulated him for attracting more customers, especially from the female sector.

"My older sister sends us money every month but I want to contribute to the expenses in some way" Aika said. "At this point in the year I have already been fired from seven jobs.

Goku gulped, how could he have been fired from seven jobs if it was still spring?  It sure broke a record.

"I can only wish you luck, I'll be there for anything you need Aika..." the black-haired man spoke, showing her his thumb, smiling.

Aika blushed when she saw that innocent smile, she did not know why she began to feel heat she needed to ventilate, so she got up from the seat.

"I-I need a glass of water... Goku will be right back!" exclaimed Aika going to the kitchen at a hurried pace, leaving Goku with a drop of sweat, she saw the scene without understanding Aika.

Goku yawned again and stretched out on his seat again, he saw that it was already ten at night on the clock that showed his phone screen.

'Hmm ... should I go home? I really don't want to see Sona-sempai's apathetic face' the boy said to himself, remembering what happened this morning, he had to wake up earlier so as not to be late and that Sona-kaichou would not punish him .

To top it off he had to complete the daily quest that appeared tomorrow if he didn't want a penalty involving a dungeon and a mud golem.

[The system has detected a high level of accumulated fatigue in the player]

[The 'hibernation' mode will be activated to correct the level of fatigue]

'What ?! Accumulated fatigue ?! But if I feel fine, I'm not tired!' Goku shouted when the voice of the system sounded in his mind.

[Hibernate mode: the player will fall into a deep sleep as soon as the countdown is over]

[Estimated time: 8 hours]

'Damn! I can't fall asleep right now, not at Aika's house!' The black-haired man exclaimed in his mind, cursing the system again.

Goku quickly got up from his seat and packed the materials into his backpack as quickly as he could, ready to return to his house by the time he started the countdown.

'Why doesn't the backpack close ?!' Goku mentally yelled since he didn't understand why his backpack was playing tricks on him.

[3 ... 2 ... 1 ... Hibernation started]

"Can not be!!" Goku shouted about to cross the door... just when he was half a step away his eyes became dark and he fell to the ground "hibernating" thanks to the fantasy system.

Aika quickly left the kitchen when she heard a sudden noise that came from the living room, she opened her eyes when she arrived and was surprised after seeing Goku on the floor with a little ghost coming out of his mouth.

"Ufufufu these kinds of situations only happen in the best eroges..." Aika spoke with a perverted smile and her glasses shone mystically.

She did not know how the black-haired man had ended up like this, she had the hypothesis that Goku wanted to leave but she denied that option knowing what he was like.

Natsuki heard the noise but she decided not to get out of bed following the advice of her sister, she hoped that strange-senpai would not harm Aika in that strange game that she made so much noise.

With an expressionless face Natsuki fell asleep again, she missed her mother tucking her in but according to Aika she had gone to a happy place with hiss father and she would never return.

Next day.

Goku wrinkled his forehead in annoyance as he received the sun's rays directly on his face, he was sure he had closed the curtains yesterday.

He yawned when his mind clicked making him remember what happened at night, he abruptly raised his head noticing that it was not his bed, nor his room, much less his house.

'Where am I?' Goku wondered after remembering that the countdown ended when he was about to cross the door of Aika's house.

That's it, Aika!

He now he remembered it better... he turned his head a little noticing the decoration of the room and when he lowered his head he saw that ...

"Ufufu you were very rude last night"

"Aika!  What are you doing here?! For what point are you naked? Why don't I have a shirt?" Goku asked quickly realizing what had happened, but he didn't remember any of that...

Aika was in her underwear with a black bra and panties of the same color revealing her adolescent body quite well formed of hers.

'Seeing her face is priceless! But I must tell you the truth, if I want this to work' Aika said to herself, ready to preserve the friendship that was forming, she did not want that to be ruined.

"You collapsed on the floor and as there are no more rooms I brought you to my room, you were sweating and I had no choice but to have to take off your shirt and since the fan didn't turn on I had to do the same..." the girl although it sounded like an anime excuse.

"Oh... that..."mumbled Goku looking for a convincing explanation for his collapse. "Because I had a dizziness and when I realized that I had forgotten my pills at home I tried to go get them quickly but I fainted".

Aika nodded with a smile seeing Goku's nervous smile, saying that excuse was more convincing than uttering "I was in hibernation for eight hours because of a system that I obtained when I was killed by a fallen angel named Reynare", that would sound crazy to Aika.

Aika blushed when she saw Goku's exposed torso, all her perversion and impudence turned into shyness that forced her to shyly cover herself with her sheet because she was in her underwear.

'My first time sharing a bed with a boy has been with Goku-kun ...' Aika thought, achieving an even bigger blush, she was satisfied with her achievement.

[Hibernation completed]

Goku sighed, it is true that now he felt full of energy but at least the system would have done him the favor of giving him hours in advance, he wanted the instruction manual.

[Cumulative fatigue: 0]

[The player has obtained 'Healing potpotion']

[Healing potion rank D: magic potion that reduces the player's fatigue levels by 25%]

Goku saw a screen in front of him where there was a bottle of water, wasn't he supposed to be unable to purchase items until the system store was unlocked?

Ring ~

The system sent a notification, that meant that he had received a new message that would surely not be good for him.

"Aika, if you'll excuse me, I must go to the restroom for a moment, I'll be right back" Goku spoke as he got up from Aika's bed.

"Sure-sure" Aika stammered, not knowing what to say, why would she come back if they would have to go to class in no time?

Goku was certainly intriguing.
