Always happy to see another chapter of this pop up, thanks for the translation.

I gotta imagine we won’t get any solid answers for at least 20 more chapters, so we’ll probably need to be patient for a while longer, but I’m enjoying it so far.

I'm 100% convinced that Rios smirk from this chapter and last is actually in relation to whenever the concept of cheating comes up and she relates it to her marriage. Not anybody else's. Last chapter she smirked when hearing about cheating from mahoros marriage, and this chapter she smirked when she's asked hows her own marriage is going. There is absolutely some baggage with her own marriage that she doesn't want to blurt out.

I definitely think Rio qas about to ask "What do you think I......Cheat?" But got cut off. I think she can definitely read Mahoro's intentions.

I do wonder if that comment Rio made about her wondering if she would've lacked something if she was cheated on was actually a subtle fuck you to Mahoro though. Like " I'm not shit at being a wife to make a man cheat on me like you are" type of deal.

But if that was a subtle barb at Mahoro, then kinda makes me think she is cheating. Unless she truly was just trying to examine it from her own perspective,, but dont think it was meant to be an airhead moment.

Om just debating between whether Rios own husband has cheated on her, which is why she smirks whenever the concept of cheating comes up, as like a self defense mechanism. Or if she smirks because she's about to have fun with the conversation. I was leaning to the former,, but if I interpret her 'if I was lacking' comment to Mahoro,, then seems more of an offensive gesture? Maybe she has been cheated on and she wanted to do it to in response.

But man oh man and I looking forward to the conversation with Rei next chapter!

I think the best way for Mahoro to get even more secure in her findings is finding out who uses the hair milk. Well Kyouko is already out, Rio and (her name escapes me but Haruto’s sis) could either both use it or just one of them. Now the question is of course how are you going to find out without being suspicious.

Also, Rio does seem to be hiding something and her smile can definitely be read as bitter. As in cheating being brought up can strike a nerve if she’s been through it, especially if she’s the kind of person who tries to look perfect to others even though they are miserable inside.

Of course she could also just be the mistress. But in that case, my biggest question would be why?

Why Rei? As in him as a person as he doesn’t seem like the best husband. But also why Rei as in, why your friends husband? Does she even see Mahoro as an actual friend? And why cheat? Did Rio’s husband cheat? Or does he neglect her and she considers that enough reason as to cheat? Remember that as explained in a previous chapter, getting divorced is actually quite hard in Japan, especially if your partner doesn’t want to divorce and they didn’t do anything ‘wrong’ in the marriage. I do think that Japans strict rules for divorce are a contributing factor to people cheating amongst many other things.

I kinda think Rio explains why when she's like "well maybe it's your fault". Some folks explicitly aim for the partners of folks they know as a way to prove that they're better (more desirable, a better partner, etc) than the person being cheated on. It's a way to 'win' at the pecking order.

Granted dunno if Rio is cheating with Rei or just bitter b/c her marriage is a mess.

There is also a huge pervasive mentality in Japan (and other countries to an extent of course), though especially among Japanese married men, that cheating is permissible. I was actually trying to gather some of this data to present in a future tl note if I have the time but yeah there's a lot of stuff here that's cultural.

Yeah it’s pretty shocking but just sex with a sex worker is surprisingly not seen as cheating by a pretty large group of people, both men and women. Would be really cool if you can add that. Loved that the difficulties regarding divorce was added because that adds a lot to the story imo.

And thank you for translating of course!

Ah I didn’t even think of that but that could absolutely be a reason for it. And yeah it was Momoka lol.

It’s time for a talk!!! I would’ve got more solid proof before talking to him but who knows? She could be recording and something tells me Rei ain’t got a poker face like Rio.
❌ Poker Face
⭕ Face when he pokes her

I'm curious if Rio's husband actually exists now.
