Hoshino Ai

I have to collect all 6 six stones so that I can snap my fingers and make all anime girls real!

A/N: It's not like you can date them either way. 🤣🤣

It's actually happening, I'm meeting that woman named Hoshino Ai about her claim of having my children.

Normally I would have considered it as bullshit, but what 'if' she's telling the truth?

I mean, a few years ago when my hormones were at their peak. I went on a sexual adventure, and it was honestly crazy.

It was forever engraved inside my mind, there's no changing it, anyway with that adventure of mine, I may or may not have had sex with girls unprotected.

So there's a chance that she's one of those girls I had a relationship with back then, even though I can't really remember her.

Now, I arrived at the cafe where we are supposed to meet and wandered around the shop. It didn't take long enough to find her.

It was a young woman who is about the same age as me, she was wearing a black cap and a white mask, it was as if she's hiding from someone.

'Suspicious.' This is what I first thought when I saw her appearance, anyone with common sense would think that way.

I sat at the opposite side of her chair, surprising the young woman in my presence.

"Are you Hoshino Ai?" I asked.

Ai's pupils widened or at least I thought they did as she saw me, and answered. "Yes, that's me. I'm glad you showed up."

I could hear the relief in her voice, but I wasn't having that, so I decided to be straightforward. "So about what you said on the phone-"

However, before I could finish the entire sentence, she interrupted me and said, "Ah~ah! Let's order some refreshments first before we start talking about that shall we?"

I wanted to refuse, but my logical side agreed with her, with a sigh, and replied. "Alright, but we'll talk about it after."

Ai nodded and smiled, or at least what I imagined her face was making since she was still wearing that white mask.

"Order anything you like! It's my treat!" Ai said cheerfully to me.

I couldn't help but frown at that, and replied. "No, I'd like to pay for it myself."

Ai looks like she was about to say something, however, she decided not to and said. "Alright."

Thus we ordered some refreshments, although I didn't order any desserts because frankly, I wasn't a fan unless it came from my brother-in-law. After all, it would guarantee to be delicious.

After our orders arrived, finally it was time for me to ask. "So, why are you still wearing that mask?

It was really suspicious for her to hide her face from the public, she's either a criminal or…

Ai's eyes widened as she heard those words and quickly spoke. "Oh! That was so rude of me!"

Then immediately she took off her mask and cap in front of me and as soon as I saw her appearance, I couldn't help but think. 'An idol, there's no doubt her face and demeanor says it all.'

All of a sudden, seeing her face made me recall something from the past. There was that young girl who looked similar to her that I dated for a few days.

It was nothing more than a casual fling on my part, but I have no idea what it is to her.

"I don't know if you remember me, but…I remember you even though we only dated for a few days." Ai said with a fond smile on her face.

"No, I do remember you." I shook my head and replied, and thought. 'To think that girl I met years ago is now this mature.'

Ai's mood brightened after hearing that. "Really?! I thought I'm the only one that remembers our relationship."

"Well, it's not surprising if you thought that's the case since most people tend to forget about their past relationships especially when it's someone unimportant," I answered and thought. 'Although in my case, I just have a good memory.'

I tried not to feel guilty about it, but I couldn't, however, I let it be because it makes me more human that way.

"That's true." Ai nodded with a smile.

"So does that mean I'm special to you?" I said in a casual way because I wasn't trying to flirt with her.

Hearing that, Ai gave a pondering look and answered. "Technically."

"Hm? Technically? Why so?" I asked curiously.

"Well, first of all, you're my first boyfriend, even though we didn't work out in the end," Ai replied easily as if it didn't bother her that we didn't work out.

What did I expect anyway? To see her feel bothered? Definitely, not, either way, this is starting to get off-topic.

"Anyway, I think it's time for us to talk about what you mentioned on the phone," I asked with a serious face.

However, despite that intimidation, Ai remained calm and kept her smile. "Yes, about our children."

"Our? Are you sure that it's mine?" I denied that possibility, as there's no way I got her impregnated, if I recall we only did it once.

Not to mention she was a virgin at that time, what are the chances of her getting pregnant?

"Yes, I'm sure it's yours because…" Ai suddenly took out the phone from her pocket and showed her a picture of a twin.

My first thought of seeing them is. 'Damn, they're so adorable.'

I almost couldn't stop myself from cooing at the twins, however, I quickly snapped out of it and started analyzing the photo, and the more I looked, the more I saw the resemblance between me and the twins.

I should know, because the male twin looks exactly like me, back when I was a toddler, he's also a brunette like me!

Except for the eye color and slightly different facial structure, since it has some asian part of it, this child could have passed as me, back when I was younger.

'Damn, there's no doubt the similarities between us, are they really mine…?' I couldn't help but wonder, however despite the obvious fact, I still have to make it 100% sure.

"I admit, they look a lot like me, but I want to make sure that they are really mine, let's have a DNA test and after the result, I'll take responsibility." I look at her in the eyes seriously.

I wasn't the type to run from my responsibility, especially for something evolving children.

Ai definitely looked astonished by my response. "You're going to take responsibility..?"

I couldn't help but blink a couple of times at her reaction and said. "Of course? Isn't that why you search for me to take responsibility?"

"O-oh well…" Ai suddenly averted her eyes away from mine.

I stared at her in disbelief as I realized that she never thought of it. At first, I thought she was after my money, but seeing this I have to reassess my view of her.

"Seriously…? You didn't think that I'd take responsibility and pay for child support?" I said with disbelief and awe.

What was she expecting when she wanted to meet me here? To say that I have children with her and after that, we part ways and pretend that nothing happened?

I couldn't stop myself from putting my palm on my face and saying. "What were you thinking…? You know forget that I asked that question."

Ai nodded and let out a sigh. "Let's do that."

No one talked for a full minute after that, but I decided to break the silence. "So, what are their names?"

I couldn't help but be curious about my apparently 'children' names, and that did that trick as Ai's mood visibly brightened, and eagerly answered. "Aquamarine and Ruby!"

Hearing my kids' names, I couldn't help but wince, it wasn't like it was bad or terrible, however, there's definitely better names than those!

From their names alone, I could tell that she named them based on what she liked, Aquamarine is (Aquarium), and Ruby is (Gems).

If only I was there on the day they were born, their names would have been totally different, not obvious like their names right now!

"Aqua and Ruby huh.." I with a wry smile.

"That's right! Aren't their names adorable?! I named them myself!" Ai huffed proudly as she mentioned naming the kids.

Adorable isn't really the right word for it…

More like 'obvious' than anything.

I could only nod at her excitement, and our conversation continued for the next several minutes and it's all about 'our' children.

Looking at her, she might not realize it herself but every time she brought up her children, her eyes would brighten more than they usually do.

This meeting didn't exactly go as I expected, at first I thought this entire meeting was nothing more than a massive hoax, but instead, it was fun, which is why I didn't expect it to be.

After our meeting we parted ways, however before we did I gave her my personal contact number, because the number she called is for public use, meaning that number is what I give to less significant people in my life like my classmates.

But the personal number I gave her is different, as it's for the people I'm close with, like my family and real friends.

Tomorrow is going to be the day I'm going to meet the twins and find out if they're really my children or not, but looking at the photo of the twins that Ai sent me.

I couldn't help but say. "There's no way that they aren't mine…"

That's right, I wasn't denying it any longer. The resemblance is painfully obvious, the reason why I wanted DNA in the first place is to make it official, and a proof that they are indeed mine.

I wonder how my meeting with my children will go.

A/N: He ain't going to buy milk this time xD.
