Chapter 26 – Shopping Rhapsody (4)
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
A lot of shops targeting female customers were lined up side by side in the D building.
There were more than tens of stores that sold various clothes, cosmetics and accessories etc.
There was also a nail salon, a beauty salon, and even a sweet shop inside the stylish cafe.
One of them was a baby goods specialty store.
I imagined that store to have a bright interior oriented towards toddlers, decorated with POP typeface and have a sickly-sweet atmosphere.
However, expectation always easily surpasses reality.
The store was sparkling.
From luxury baby brands, to surprisingly, baby goods of brands that everyone knows.
Besides maternity goods, there was even underwear with “Even pregnant women want to shine” inscribed on it.
Hey, do you not feel ashamed with that type of underwear?
Let me say this, I’ll never come in by myself.
Even entering through the front was quite nerve-wracking.
If you ever get lost because of some mistake, you’ll incur the concentrated fire of all the customer’s beams.
You’ll be killed by an uncomfortable feeling!!
Men were a rare existence in this entire D building.
In other words, it was a woman’s barrier.
It instigated the shame of all men, rejecting to face sensitivity face on.
Of course, there seemed to be a lot of customers who were couples in the surrounding area.
Or rather, way too many.
Most of the duos were male and female pairs, and sometimes families with children could be seen.
There was only one thing in common.
Every male customer looked like they were enduring something.
“This, this is cute! It’ll definitely suit Nana and Jaja! Hey, hey Kunpei-san, please look!”
I picked up the tiny cloth small enough to mistake it for a handkerchief, and Aoi was in high spirits.
Of course, it was not a handkerchief but an overall for infants and young children. There was Body All written on it in POP typeface.
It had a cute rabbit print on it and a rabbit ear hood.
I wouldn’t get it if a rabbit tribe bought this.
“Yeah, it’s quite cheap, why not buy it?”
“No, there are definitely cuter things! Don’t compromise on this.”
Why did you ask if you were going to deny?
“Why don’t we buy a stroller first? Since we have stuff when going back, we can’t just keep carrying them.”
We’ve already been in this store for an hour.
Aoi’s tension has been continuously rising.
But the only things that we decided to buy were accessories. A pacifier to bite on and a feeding bottle. A sterilization machine is under consideration.
Nana and Jaja were already sleeping.
Jaja was in my arm, and Nana was in Aoi’s arm. They were both peacefully breathing during their sleep.
They are sleeping quite well in this bustling crowd.
“Ah, that’s right”
Aoi who returned to me surveyed the interior of the store.
There was a stroller corner in the back of the store in a large space next to the checkout register.
“It’s over there.”
Are you also interested in the surrounding products? Aoi moved towards the corner while restlessly shifting her line of sight.
Shouhei was sitting on the bench outside of the store and fiddling with his phone in a bad mood.
It was steadily becoming worse.
“Oh! Are they twins! How cute!”
A plump and gentle looking female employee of the fox tribe approached us.
“Eh? Ah, yes…”
Aoi’s body stiffened and she took a step towards me and hid behind me.
Come to think of it, I was told that she didn’t have much interaction with other tribes.
Does she have a fear of strangers?
“Oh, they’re sleeping, aren’t they? I’m sorry for raising my voice, are they your younger sisters?”
This auntie somehow instantly created a perfect feeling of distance between us. Was she a relative?
“Ah, no”
“They’re my daughters.”
For a moment, unlike me who was wondering how to answer, Aoi bluntly declared it.”
“Ara, ara ara ara ara.”
She looked at Jaja, Nana, and Aoi, then lastly fixed her gaze on me.
Ah, it’s that expression.
“This guy had the nerve to do that” face.
“What a young couple. Fufufufu. Recently kids that are half beastmen and human have been increasing, I’m glad.”
She smiled satisfactorily and averted her gaze from me.
I want to refute it.
I haven’t even done it, I really want to refute it!
“Ah, we’re looking for a stroller and want to use it soon.”
I put up with it and asked the female fox employee.
I can not refute it. It’s too complicated.
“Certainly, it’s over here but there are various different types.”
I was brought to the stroller corner.
Aoi walked with her eyes shining, bending her waist, searching high and low for items.
“Ah, there’s one for twins, how cute.”
“You can let your children sleep while you’re choosing.”
There was a movable crib in the place where the auntie pointed.
I will accept her offer.
Actually, because my right hand could not be used at all, it was inconvenient when my left arm was occupied.
“Thank you.”
“No, no, I’m an ally of all mothers, so it’s natural. But, you’re very put together even though you’re so young.”
Somehow it felt like she was going back and forth between an employee and a related auntie.
There was no discomfort because of that, as expected of a professional.
Aoi and I alternately put the kids in bed. I held onto the handle attached to the bed.
“So, have you thought about how you’re going to use the strollers? As for twins, it’ll be inconvenient on trains, but wider things will be more comfortable later on.”
“Is that so.”
Aoi placed her hand on her chin and was brooding.
“For example, this is the type that can completely shelter from the rain.”
“Heee”
She peered into the stroller with great interest.
“This was assembled with three bars and wheels, so it feels very light when using it.”
“Yes.”
“That guy over there is very popular, it is made of precious metals from dungeons, so it’s pretty strong, light and long lasting.”
“Ah, y-yes.”
“This uses a shape memory alloy and a three-point structure so it is a type that is very strong against shocks.”
“E-eh?”
“There are things that can be used from 1 years old up to about the age of five, and it is different whether it is a reclining seat or a flat seat. The type that can fit two people is more sturdy so they’re the best. Although they are also heavier, papa seems to be a strong man, so I’d like you to help by all means. It’s inconvenient if it’s just mama, but you can also use it for shopping because you can use it to hold your items as well. If you need to get up stairs and such, there is also a function to aid that. Collapsing it may become somewhat difficult, but I still think that it is better than lifting it up. Ah, Iwanaga-san, was this baby stroller here sold out earlier? Can you please help me confirm whether there’s any inventory left? Ah, please excuse me… please try using it. Although strollers can only be used for around 5 years, it’s dangerous if you don’t choose a good one. Stoppers are also very important. There are many incidents nationwide where the strollers have rolled away, so please be careful. It is better to match the model that can easily be stopped and the one that also matches the physique and height of mama. How about something like this? It has a brake on its handle and can decelerate in case of emergency. Since there are about 4 different colors, I have a color chart for that. Our shop is also doing orders, so it’s better to show you a pamphlet. Ah, Tosaki-san, perfect timing. Can you please bring me the pamphlet and the color file from the counter? The customers are waiting, so please hurry.”
“K-kunpei-san…”
Even if you ask me for help, I’m troubled.
