Chapter 257: A Suite

In the afternoon, Natsui Makoto went out the door and walked into a neighborhood convenience store, buying a weekly Women’s SEVEN magazine to hold in her hand and read.

Suddenly, her cell phone rang. She pulled out her phone and looked at the caller ID, it turned out to be a friend who used to work with her at Miki Bookstore.

“Makoto, do you have time tonight? Let’s get together.” Uehara Tomomi said bluntly.

“Yeah!” Natsui Makoto very readily agreed to it in a heartbeat saying.

“Then we’ll meet inside that izakaya we used to frequent and we won’t see each other. The time is set for seven o’clock in the evening.” Uehara Tomomi told them where they would meet, and said.

It was then that Natsui Makoto remembered that she was pregnant and not able to drink. She agreed although she hesitated a little.

Natsui Makoto thought that even if she couldn’t drink alcohol, she could still drink oolong tea. She also currently wanted to find someone agreeable to talk to.

By the end of the night, she showed up early at the place where she had met with Uehara Tomomi and found a seat, ordering something that had both her favorite food and Uehara Tomomi’s favorite food.

Natsui Makoto was playing with her cell phone and didn’t feel the difficulty of waiting for someone. When Uehara Tomomi appeared in front of her, she hadn’t yet shifted the attention of both eyes from the top of her cell phone screen.

“You’re so free to ask me to come to an izakaya for a drink in the middle of the day?” Uehara Tomomi was surprised that she asked her to drink at this point in the day.

“You drink, I’ll drink oolong tea.” Natsui Makoto put her cell phone down and gestured to the cup of oolong tea in front of her.

“What’s the point of you coming to an izakaya and not drinking, instead you make me drink alone?” Tomomi Uehara said as she sat down across from her.

“I’m pregnant, I really can’t drink.” Natsui Makoto said as she told the truth.

Uehara Jimei understood and thought along bad lines, “Can’t it be that that one boyfriend of yours doesn’t intend to want the child inside your belly?

Aren’t all men like that? When they want you, they are great. When they don’t want you, they treat you like you’re nothing, and they’re the most ruthless and heartless when they’re determined.”

“No, he wanted me to give birth to the child.” Natsui Makoto explained.

“Then what’s bothering you? Is it hard to believe that you don’t want the child inside your belly? Makoto, I’m going to have to talk to you.

Don’t make a fool of yourself. The fact that you have this one child inside your belly also means that you’re holding the one in your family. He’s no ordinary man.” Tomomi Uehara pushed her luck.

“Why do you all always like to associate everything with money?” Natsui Makoto drooped her head, rather puzzled.

“How old are you, dear? Junior high school girl, no, even elementary school students don’t have naive ideas like yours nowadays. Without money, it’s hard to move an inch.

Even our next-door neighboring country China’s economy is up nowadays, their elementary school students have become so practical and full of class.

Children who have cars at home play with children who have cars at home, naturally excluding children who do not have cars at home. It was able to be divided once more whether it was a domestic car or an imported one.

On top of that, there is a difference between those who have a private home and those who live in a rented house. This is also completely different between those who live in the center of the city and those who live in the non-center of the city.” Tomomi Uehara told what she had heard from a TV program.

“Initially, when I was with him, I didn’t even think about him at all, it was just because of his person. Now that he’s rich, is he able to treat me like that?” Natsui Makoto said a little sadly.

“And how did he treat you badly?” Tomomi Uehara recoiled, confused by her.

“I just wanted to marry him, but he wouldn’t do it. He just told me to have the baby. To put my insecurities and worries to rest, he’ll also transfer the house I’m currently living in Ueno into my name.” Natsui Makoto said glumly.

Tomomi Uehara froze. She recovered after a while, mistaking that she had misheard, “It’s still broad daylight, and you’re drunk without drinking?”

“Really, I’m not lying to you. He said it to me himself. I just couldn’t think of anything else, that’s why I called you out.” Natsui Makoto said in a serious manner.

Uehara Jimei’s entire body began to become bad, her right index finger was erected and said, “The men I’ve met are all assholes.

How did you meet such a nice man? Honey, a suite, or a high-class elevator apartment mansion in Ueno, Taito District.”

“A suite is nowhere near as good as him marrying me.” Natsui Makoto blurted out.

“You really are a silly girl. What can you do even if you guys get married? If he cheats on you behind your back and goes to another woman, there won’t be any guarantees just because you’re married.

Since he has taken the initiative to give it to you, then you should take it first. As long as you guys are in a good relationship, even if you don’t get married, it’s okay.

Oh …… Could it be, could it be, that you have long term plans, that one suite is too little, but that you intend to marry him so that you can share his fortune equally?” Uehara Tomomi straightened up and said.

“What have you been saying with all that! I never thought about it the way you said.” Natsui Makoto said with a raised eyebrow.

“Honey, take my advice. Accept that one offer he made. Hey, if I could, I’d really like to switch with you.” Uehara Tomomi did not fail to show her envy and said.

“My heart just doesn’t feel comfortable!” Natsui Makoto harmonized her current thoughts and mindset and said.

“If you want to show greatness and saintly motherhood, then just don’t take the house he gave you. Right now, he’s still able to love you as a person. What about after a long time? Don’t say that Sis didn’t kindly remind you in the moment, don’t regret it in the future.

As for the child inside your belly, the future will not be the same as you, it is not possible to say. If the child inside your belly knows one day that you made such a stupid decision, will it hate you?

It is you, the one who is the real mom, who changed its fate with your own hands. Your child could have been born into a rich middle-class Tokyo family, but you had to let him or her be born into a poor family with nothing.

You and I are both daughters of poor families, so naturally we know what kind of ostracism and bullying a child with no money suffers at school.

Even when we grow up and become adults, it will continue. Society doesn’t look at whether you’re kind or not, it only looks at whether you’re rich or not.” Uehara Tomomi said truthfully.

Natsui Makoto instantly fell into deep thought, after all, the other party was speaking the truth. She was a person from the past, and could not have a personal experience?

“With money you can save your child from having to go down the same old path you’ve been down in the past. You can give him a good education, you can let him go to a good school, have money to participate in all kinds of training courses, interest classes.

In the future, he will also be able to go to a good university and proceed to a big company, and will not have to scrounge for a living by working around like us at all.” Uehara Tomomi said with feeling.
