"The Linguistics of the Dating Club 'Itamanai'" Part XNUMX

I was hoping for a miracle somewhere

When I arrived at the store, the president was not there, but the president's wife, the managing director, took care of me.
The managing director welcomes his triumphant wife and Joe with a big smile on his face.

My wife had called the store ahead of time.

"Joe-sama, you're finally granting your wife's wish. As expected."

The managing director's words can only be heard as sarcasm.

Joe usually fights back lightly, but of course he doesn't have the leeway to do so.
It's been a long time, but I wondered if I could say a little more kind words to him, even though I've been on a relationship with him twice.
The managing director and his wife also exchange words.


But Joe doesn't hear it at all.


Even more frighteningly, I was guided to a separate room that I had not been guided to when shopping up until now.

Coffee and fine chocolates are served first.
This is also an unprecedented response.And some rings put on a special tray appeared.
My wife picks it up and sometimes puts it on her finger while looking for a ring.

The managing director also sends a lot of backtracking and advice.

As for Joe, his train of thought had changed, but that's why
I was hoping for a miracle somewhere.That shouldn't be the case.in the first place
What is a miracle in the case of
 

eh?It can't be

The managing director and his wife had a long exchange, and finally

"Do this"

declared his wife.

The ring finger of the left hand is shown to Joe.One good thing and one bad thing for Joe.
The good news is that it looks like you only need to buy one ring.

(I didn't hear much of their conversation, but somehow the managing director said something along the way.
"If you're not sure, why don't you buy both?"
He said.I'll kill you, Yoko! )

The bad thing is that the diamond my wife chose is very large.

Joe didn't know anything about it, but the price of a diamond must be proportional to its basic size.

At this point, Joe felt more like the end of the world than unbearable.

Finally it came to the checkout stage.The ring is again on the tray, with a price tag next to it.Joe nervously checks the price tag.


"Eh? It can't be like that."
 

I thought, "This is the end of the purification ceremony."

That's right, it shouldn't be that way.

But at that time Joe had lost his ability to think calmly,
Wishful thinking, I was hoping for a miracle.

That's why I didn't question the fact that the number on the price tag starts with "XNUMX" and that there are six digits in total.

 

write again.

I was given a black card, led to another room, where coffee and high-end chocolate were served, making it impossible for me to reach XNUMX digits.

I would always look at the numbers again and again.

However, as mentioned above, Joe at that time was suffering from mental abnormalities, even temporarily.
I had no doubt that this ring was priced in six figures.

Conversely, like a corrupt politician

"This is the end of the misogi"

I thought.And I struggled to hold back the laughter that bubbled up in my heart.

As expected of my wife, she knows Joe's financial situation very well.

At this price, I don't need a black card, but my beloved (!) wife wants it, so let's use this card.

Joe slowly presents the black card.

My wife's purpose is a military assault.

The Managing Director receives it respectfully and heads to the cash register.After a while, the managing director reappeared with the card, receipt, and handset of the telephone.

"Mr. Joe, there is no problem with the payment amount, but the credit card company wants to verify your identity. Could you answer the phone?"
And the managing director who hands the handset to Joe.

hmm? Identity verification with XNUMX digits?What does it mean?Putting his ear to the handset, Joe checked the card on the tray and the receipt next to it.
 

A shudder runs through Joe who confirmed the number again.

The purification ceremony had not been completed.

the numbers there

It started with "7" and had "," next to it.

That was an order of magnitude difference.Well, I have to check myself.

“Mr. Joe, thank you for using our credit card. I am very sorry, but I will ask you some questions to verify your identity. Before that, how would you like to pay? receive."
 

I knew there would be a terrible interest rate, but of course I am more grateful for the revolving payment.

However, the wife's purpose is a military assault.When her wife listened and raised her ears, she could not say, "Revolving."

At the same time, I understood the executive director's motives.The reason why I brought the handset here is to prevent revolving payments.The managing director and his wife collude.
 

Because I love my wife, as a token of my daily gratitude

proton!you

"Joe's dick hits Yoko's most comfortable part!"

Didn't you say that!Are you going to return the favor?

Of course I can't because I don't know what will happen if I actually say this and the J-Alert goes off.
But it's frustrating.
I want to do something to counterattack, remember, Yoko, someday I'll make you scream!

"I would like a lump sum payment, please."
Joe finally speaks.He may be bleeding from his throat.

“Thank you.

I had a few questions.What made me laugh was the question, "What was the name of your first dog?"

Is that a keyword when you say it?I feel like I registered

"Thank you very much. Identity verification has been completed. Lastly, if you don't mind, could you tell us your reason for purchasing this item?"

There is a lot of support.But her wife is listening on her side.I can't say much.

"I love my wife, so as a sign of my daily gratitude."

I deliberately spoke loudly so that my wife could hear me, but it had the complete opposite effect.

The Managing Director leaks a wry smile and his wife laughs.

It was Joe who just signed the receipt with the feeling that he couldn't stand it.
 

Beginning of the impeachment trial

However, until now, "I can't stand it" was just the beginning.
It was after I got home that a full-scale storm of the Isewan Typhoon class (sorry for the old analogy, Joe wasn't even born) blew up.

Joe is seated at the dining table.This is the beginning of the impeachment trial.

On the desk were more than 500 postcards and letters that Joe wrote to his wife in the past (mainly when they were dating).

That's right, despite his rugged appearance, and despite his self-proclaimed laziness, Joe is very diligent.

However, only if they were in love, and the letters were placed on the desk, Joe was convinced that the divorce would not be handed down.

This act is a message to encourage reflection from the wife.

To be honest, the content of the letter found was something that could not be excused even if a divorce was declared, but it was Joe who stroked his chest first.

Joe has never been divorced, but he's heard from people who have.

In the first place, Joe is an important gold crane for his wife.He may have thought that it would be better for him not to get divorced but to squeeze.

At the same time, Joe never doubted his wife's love for him.

Because Joe also likes his wife "so-so".

In addition, according to the daughter, who is a double spy between the couple, there was also a report that "Mom really loves Daddy."

However, I have to be careful with my daughter's report.There is a close relationship between reports that make Joe feel good and requests for pocket money.
 

It was stained with bright red blood for a while.

Even so, what kind of judgment will be given by the wife in the end?It was Joe who waited with fear and trembling.

His wife's judgment was harsh to Joe.In front of her wife, she called her lover (Reiko) and told him to break up.

Of course Joe has no choice.Joe picks up his phone with trembling hands.
Reiko came out with her usual cheerful voice.She had no idea where to begin.She communicated her requirements as briefly as possible.

"I found a letter from you to my wife. Since my wife found out about my relationship with you (I don't usually say 'you'), I can't go out with you anymore.sorry. "

A moment of silence.But Reiko answered immediately.

"Okay, but you'd still be surprised if it happened all of a sudden. Joe threw the letter over there anyway, didn't he? I told you to put it away in the study as soon as you got home."

"sorry"

"I can't help what happened. Your wife is there, right? Can you take over?"

It was the request that Joe feared the most.But Reiko's voice had a ring that didn't need any questions.

I gave my wife my cell phone.She seemed a little surprised, but her wife resolutely took her phone.

After that, the conversation between the girls continued for about 20 minutes.She didn't know Reiko's tone, but she could guess from her wife's tone that she was soft-spoken.

But at least his wife's words contained anger despite their calm tone.

One of Reiko's charms is her strength of mind.

Reiko probably didn't back down even one step.And during this time, Joe becomes keenly aware of the true meaning of the word "unbeatable."

I couldn't think of anything else and wanted to just disappear.

For Joe, there was no better occasion to use the word 'I can't stand it'.

It is said that there is no rain that does not stop.And for Joe, this event, which was a dreadnought storm, strangely comes a calm day.

Of course it's not free.
Both my wife and Reiko needed seven digits.Joe's personal account was red with blood for some time.

By the way, there is more to this story.As she may have guessed, her relationship with Reiko continued for the next two years, albeit on a small scale.

We finally broke up in March of this year.

This farewell was a big motivation for Joe to join the dating club.Is the parting really Joe-like poor?There is an episode.

I want to write when I'm in trouble with a story, but for a while there are other stories, so I want to give priority to that.
