Ai To Shiawase's

Ch. 39: Rey and Mother's Meeting

...Making bad things about others is bad. Especially if it is distributed....

...\=•\=•\=...

After a long time we walked, Rey finally managed to drive me home. From a distance, I saw a little boy with a grown woman. I couldn't see clearly, just a vague look. However, I'm sure they are Miku and mom.

"Rey, put me down here ...," I said softly. Yeah, I don't want you to get mad 'cause I'm being carried around like this. Don't let him think that I'm enslaving others. Hiihh, I will definitely be punished severely if it really happens.

"Heei .. Your leg is hurt you know. So, please, don't try to be okay!" rey said in a firm voice. Judging from the look on his face, he looked very serious.

Even so, I should keep going down. Whatever the way, anyway, I don't want you to see Rey holding me. "Rey, hah .. I haven't healed yet. But, please, put me down right now! There's no need to ask me why, because I'm going to have trouble answering, okay?" respond to me with a voice that is no less firm anyway.

After hearing me, Rey suddenly fell silent. "Hahh .. fine if you insist. Be careful!" Rey lowered my body slowly.

Taps!

Both my legs came down and supported my weight so as not to fall. However, when both of my feet stepped on the ground, the pain re-emerged. My feet felt like they were being struck by lightning. But I have to calm down. I can't scream in pain here, or Rey will sympathize again. I covered my mouth with both hands, trying to endure this pain.

At the same time, Rey turned around and looked at me. "Why are you covering your mouth, Ai?" ask Rey.

"Emmm .. ti-no. I-I was just practicing the movie scenes I watched yesterday ahaha .. haha ...." I smiled broadly with a faint laugh. I had to do this to make my lie look perfect. Eeem, yes that is.

"Ooh, okay. But if you feel that your feet hurt, just say it. No need to be held or even detained. Or you'll be in pain later" he said.

"Yes ...," I said.

"Onee-san!" the little boy I saw shouted as he ran up to me and Rey. When he came closer, I found out who he was. Yeah, it turns out my view is right. He is Miku. "Eh, Rey's sister is here too? Woaah ...." Miku stood in front of Rey while looking up to see Rey's face.

"Hello, Miku! For a moment, Brother Ai must enter the house first, yes. Because Brother Ai just experienced a bad event. Her legs were injured," Rey explained as she stroked Miku's short black hair.

"eeh? Brother Ai .. Brother's leg hurts?" ask Miku plain.

"No-no, Miku. Brother is just a little hurt. Now it's healed, it doesn't hurt anymore" I replied with a big smile on my face.

"Ah really? Well then, tonight we can play again, right, brother?" ask Miku again.

"Th-that ...." Rey and I looked at each other. We were both confused as to what to answer.

Taps! Taps! Taps!

"Ai, what's wrong?" asked the mother with frowning brows. "Then, who is he?" Mother asked another question.

"Oo-oh .. i-itu–" I haven't finished explaining, but Rey cut me off, "Aa-ah, Auntie, introduce, I'm Tachibana Rey, Ai's classmate! Yeah ... maybe our relationship is more than a friend, anyway ... uh I mean, sa-I want to explain to Auntie about Ai. Bi, just now, Ai was run over by a foreign motorcyclist. Yeah, so, Ai's leg was hurt. Maybe sprained." Rey explained everything I had been through. Emm .. I felt like the words he said were wrong. Ah already.

"Ooh, so you're Ai's classmate? Well, I'm really grateful. Apparently, my daughter has friends at school. Yes, this is a child who tends not to want to go out of the house. Even worse, he did not want to be told to do homework. Always lazy. I hope, you can change his attitude that has deviated far from the life of this high school girl in general," said the mother.

The deg!

That word clearly made my emotions peak. What does it mean 'lazy'. I do my homework every day. In fact, I don't even have time to rest because of that. Then, why did he even say that in front of Rey. Grghhhc ....

I clenched one hand. I'm still trying to contain this emotion inside of me. If she wasn't my mother, I would've hit her earlier.

"Eeh, is Ai so at home? Aa-ah okay. Bi, I'm going home. I asked Aunt to take care of Ai until she recovers, huh?" said Rey.

Emm .. has she been affected by mother's speech. Does he believe what my mother said? Those are the words that come to my mind right now. I hope Rey doesn't believe what Mom said. I don't want our friendship to stretch. Hah .. but actually I still don't understand, why mom always wants to see me in trouble. Am I not a real child? Am I just a girl he picked up from the orphanage? Yeah, come to think of it that could have happened.

However, why would she have to use the status of 'birth mother' in a residence card. If indeed she is only a stepmother who adopts a child to be hurt, it is better not to use the status of 'mother'. Emm, it seems, he did it so that his crimes wouldn't seem too obvious. Hah .. I really don't understand the adult mindset.

"Alright, Son. Thank you for bringing Ai home. Sorry for the trouble, huh? Uh by the way, what's your name?" ask mother.

"A-ah, not at all, Bi. My name is Rey, Tachibana Rey. Aunty can call me with the call 'Rey' only okay," Rey said.

"alright. Auntie will remember your name, Rey. Once again, auntie thanks you, huh? What would Ai be if there were no you. Hah .. he was very lucky. If he's always depending on you, please forgive, huh? He did have a spoiled nature from long ago." Mom said that again. Even though his words had a point, but still. His words sound really upsetting to me.

"Ah, not at all. Ai is a good girl. He doesn't bother me at all. Yossh, then, I go home first, yes, Bi. It's getting late" said the man.

"Alright .. thanks, Rey." I thank Rey again.

Rey turned around and walked away from where we were. I waved my right hand in the air

...\=•\=•\=...

Rey: "Hey, don't forget to like, comment, and give gifts, huh? By the way, my waking up photo is good isn't it? I don't want to lose to Ai. Just to remind you, I'm more handsome than Ai and Rin."
