As I was impatient for the future, the memories continued to play on the giant screen in front of me. In short, they were memories of me from this world studying various disciplines at home; being cared for and cared for by the maids in the mansion; enjoying my moments alone with my stepfather ...

In other words, I was enjoying to the fullest the conditions that being the son of a billionaire afforded me. Of course, I was not allowed to leave the mansion much because of some kind of precaution, so I did not have many friends nor did I go to school. Of course, because I asked within my wishes to have the talent for anything, I had no problem studying at home. However, if this continues in the future, I will not be able to meet the characters that I am so looking forward to meeting and wanting to be in a relationship with.

When I say that my self in this world did not have many friends, it was mostly because he was almost never allowed to leave the mansion for a walk or go to the park to have fun playing with other children. The first time this happened was when my self in this world was 5 years old. Of course, since my stepfather wished it was not known who I was, they dressed me like a normal person. Additionally, one of the maids would disguise herself in the same way to pose as my caregiver or something similar. In this case, it was Alicia's turn, which made Risa sad for not being her, but then she calmed down as they agreed between them that they would take turns with the other maid that she can't recognize. On the other hand, to prevent anything unexpected from happening to me, my stepfather decided to have some of his trusted guards follow us at a reasonable distance.

Back then, my self from this world was still an outgoing person, so as soon as he got to the park and saw some children playing, he ran away without much thought. But, when I got to the recreation area, all of a sudden all the kids turned to look at me. Many of them blushed (mostly the girls), while others just watched me silently. According to the memory, the boys and girls did not dare to approach me. Maybe because he was very handsome and seemed to be somewhat unattainable, or because they didn't like him for some reason like jealousy or shyness. In the end, none of them plucked up the courage to interact or play with me, so they focused on their own groups and pushed me aside.

The children's parents were outside the recreation area, so they were able to observe this unfortunate event. Some gave me a pitying look, while others looked reproachfully at their children for being so cruel or cowardly. Despite this, to my surprise, my this world self decided to play by itself. Maybe it was because it was the first time he had gone out to have fun outside the mansion or because he did not want to sadden Risa and the others with this heavy environment.

While it was something to admire, the truth is that playing alone is not very pleasant. And because I had made a great impression on others before, they paid attention to me every moment they could. Above all, the girls. From what I could see, from the moment I arrived, practically all of them were bewitched by me, which I assumed was due to my desire to be irresistible to any woman. I could even see that many mothers were somewhat blushing when they noticed my presence in the park, and when they saw that I was forced to have fun despite being alone and excluded from the rest, they could not help but think that I was adorable, or at least that is what I thought when I saw their expressions on the screen.

After trying to have fun on my own for a while, I understood that my humor would disappear at this rate, so it was only left for me to try to make friends by introducing myself to them first. But, compared to talking to those children who were with their respective groups, it would be easier to talk to someone who was not in one.

Looking around me, I noticed that there were indeed children who were with their mothers or fathers and that they had not moved from their side outside the recreation area since I arrived at the park. Steeling herself, my self from this world decided to approach one particular girl who was not particularly pretty at that age, although I knew that she would become a true beauty in the future. This girl had been blushing since the moment my self from this world arrived at the recreation area; she too, like other girls who were with her parents, she would not stop looking at him while my self from this world tried to have fun on her own. When she realized I was looking at her, she couldn't help but blush again; and when she saw that she was directing me in her direction, she blushed even more and got behind her mother, who only laughed at how funny and interesting this situation was.

When I approached her, I spoke in a voice broken by the nerves that were invading me:

Rei: “Say-excuse me. Would you w-like to play co-with me? "

Hearing my words, she widened her eyes. Apparently, she couldn't believe someone as handsome as her would pick her out of all the boys who weren't playing at the playground. Apparently, this fact made her even more nervous because she hid her face behind her mother's body without giving any response.

Seeing this, her mother laughed quietly as she covered her mouth with her hand. It seemed that he found it very pleasant how the situation was unfolding. A moment later, she withdrew her daughter from her back, knelt down, and brought her mouth to her daughter's ear as if to tell her something about her. And as I supposed, it was because the girl in front of me blushed terribly. She made me think what the hell did she say to make her get like that. Once she finished what she had to say, she stood up again, got behind her daughter and pushed her forward. The girl ended up losing her balance due to her nerves, and as she was in my direction I rushed to grab her with outstretched arms.

Once I caught her, I sighed in relief and asked her:

Rei: "Are you okay?"

The girl was shocked by what had happened. When she recovered from it, she blushed furiously as she answered me in a tone that was getting lower and lower:

Girl: “I-I'm really sorry. Sorry to bother you "

Rei: “Not at all. In any case, it is my fault for bothering you with my request "

Girl: “N-nono. I-I mean ... if you're okay with me ... "

Hearing what the girl said, I couldn't help but smile with joy and nod continuously.

Rei: “Of course I'm fine with you. Come. Let's have fun"

After saying that, I took the girl's hand and ran with her in the direction of the games. Along the way, we received several looks. The girls looked at my new friend with suspicion and envy, which made her a little depressed. Noticing that, I said:

Rei: “My name is Rei. What's your name?"

Bringing her attention back to me, the girl unconsciously replied:

Girl: "A-Ah? ... I'm Ayame"

Rei: “Ayame. It's a cute name. Would you like to be my friend, Ayame? "

The girl blushed again when she heard the first part of what I said. When she heard the second part, she couldn't help saying:

Ayame: "EH?"

Seeing the confusion on her face, I said with a smile:

Rei: “You see, Ayame. It is the first time that I go outside my house to play. Although this is my first time doing this, no one tried to talk to me or ask me to play together. The truth is, I don't know when I'll be able to do it again, so I want to have as much fun as I can and, if possible, make a friend. Do you know why that is so important to me? "

Hearing my words, Ayame didn't know what to say. Surely, she could not understand why a boy her age did not go out to have fun outside her house. Also, she did not understand what she meant when she said that she did not know when she would go out again. Her curiosity finally reached the limit when she heard Rei's question, so she shook her head. What Rei said left her speechless:

Rei: "... Because I don't have friends."

Ayame: "..."

After saying that, I had a sad expression. Meanwhile, Ayame was silent. After a few seconds, I saw how tears formed in her beautiful eyes as if she was about to cry from her sadness, so I approached her to wipe them while she said:

Rei: “Please don't cry. Simply, my circumstances are special, so I have not been able to interact with boys my age. That is why I want to take this opportunity however it is. What do you say? Would you like to be my first friend? "

After saying this, she Ayame took a breath, grabbed my hands and looked into her eyes as she said with a tender smile:

Ayame: "If you're okay with me, I'd like to be your first friend, Rei."

Hearing Ayame say those magical words, I couldn't help but get emotional. Suddenly, I hugged her with all my strength as she laughed in happiness and thanked her over and over again. She did not know how to respond to this unexpected reaction. The only thing she could do was hug me tightly, as well as nod in response to my excitement before covering her face with my chest in embarrassment.

Her mother, who was watching everything from afar, had a tender expression on her face. She could imagine what she might be thinking. After all, I too was touched by seeing this wonderful scene. After that, I watched him take Ayame by the hand to games and we had fun like never before until almost nightfall. When it was time to leave, we both looked at each other sadly, knowing that we would probably never see each other again. Ayame hugged me tightly as tears spilled from her eyes. On the other hand, I simply consoled her with a sad expression without saying a word.

Just when we were about to part, Alicia came up to me and said:

Alicia: “Young master. If you want to meet her new friend so badly in the future, you could ask her mother for her phone number for you. After all, I don't think she will refuse after seeing how much fun the two of them have had. "

Hearing such words, I felt my joy return. I continually nodded for him to do me that favor.

After being asked for her phone number to arrange a reunion in the future, Ayame's mother couldn't help but laugh tenderly as she said:

Ayame's mother: “Fufufu. I think it's a great idea. What do you say, Ayame? "

Upon hearing her mother's question, I saw how Ayame blushed furiously as she hid behind her mother. After a moment, Ayame looked at me and nodded.

Consequently, Ayame's mother smiled fondly and said as she looked at me:

Ayame's mother: “Fufufu. Good for you, Rei-chan "

Hearing these words, I couldn't help but blush just like Ayame. Only I lowered my gaze and didn't hide. After that, Alicia and Ayame's mother exchanged contacts, while Ayame and I hugged one more time as a farewell. Although this time we had happy expressions, since it was not a "goodbye" but a "see you later."

After that event, several things happened. While she didn't regularly leave the mansion, the times she did end up in sheer fun. Besides Ayame, I was able to make 4 more friends. (Although that will be history for another time)

The funny thing is that every time I met someone new, when I returned home I noticed how Risa was somewhat discouraged and looked at me somewhat resentful, but once she calmed down I was sad because of the change in her attitude towards me. Seeing these hilarious reactions from Risa only further confirmed that she had feelings for me, although I'm pretty sure my this world self didn't realize that. Another interesting thing is that, despite her jealousy, Risa didn't try to get close to me. Perhaps because of her sense of duty towards me or because she was still very innocent. Well, not that it is of interest. In the end, when she wakes up and begins my new life, I will return all the love that she has given me over all these years and even more.

In other words, my childhood wasn't so bad. So much so that she makes me regret not having woken up earlier. Oh well. It is what it is. Once my memories finished transferring into my brain, I said to Ai:

Rei: “Without a doubt, it was an interesting life that my self of this world lived. I can't help but get impatient to wake up at once and meet those wonderful people. Thanks for doing this, Ai. It was an excellent suggestion. "

Ai: “I'm glad you enjoyed it, Rei. So, are you ready to start living in the real world? "

Rei: “Of course, Ai. I'll leave the rest to you "

Ai: “Very good. Ending stay in the world of dreams. Making final adjustments to the host's mind. Sending the host to the real world in 3..2..1..0. Initiating transfer of consciousness "

At that moment, my consciousness faded. When I opened my eyes again, I was in what appeared to be my new room.

 

"Hi, everyone.

In case you have some problems when you come across expressions like "my old me" or "My this world self", I want you to understand that the protagonist of the story uses those terms to refer to the person who was born in this new world and lived in it for 8 years as Yukimura Yuki. That is why, whenever the protagonist refers to that person, he will speak in the third person. That would be all. I hope you enjoy how the story goes so far, as well as what's to come."
