Angels in the Rain

Chapter 7's

Happiness does not last long, happiness will be lost with just one action, even a small mistake will have a bad impact in the future.

Only a fool tries to restore the memory of happiness.

The way or the effort you put in, you won't get it back.

A shadow will disappear if you are in the dark, no one cares about you in this world... There never was...

Nobody cares about me, even though I've tried to do anything, nobody cares.

I'm a fool, doing something to get people's attention.

Haha... It's really sad for me..

Old folks? Yeah, I wouldn't talk about them, even if I had a sister, I don't care.

As if everything had changed since my sister's presence, my parents' attitude had become completely different.

Our age is not much different, I have no reason to hate them.

Even with the change in attitude they made me realize, whether I was too stupid or my parents?

No one knows...

I have absolutely no memory of any of it, honestly, it was my reason for living alone without their help.

Even when I was in 2nd grade, they didn't visit me at all, as if my whereabouts didn't care at all.

Until someone sends me a message, and tells me to go back and bring Yumina.

Already I expected things, an inkling of not wearing appeared. Even after receiving the message it made me uneasy.

Not that I was worried about meeting them, but about Yumina.

They seem to realize someone is staying with me, or maybe they've been watching us for a long time.

Well, assuming it could happen, I would assume all this happened naturally.

For a while I could only make up my mind by not taking her with me, I would leave Yumina to Chitose and stay with her for a while.

I guess I can trust them to look after Yumina, only 2 days left before the new year.

I didn't tell Yumina about this, it might worry her.

I saw Yumina's face that seemed to be filled with excitement, that one made me want to protect her.

"You cooked something Yumina?"

"Yes... It's almost done."

From far away the aroma of cooking to my nose, if I can be honest I wonder what Yumina cooks?

From the smell it produced, I just concluded that it was a stir-fry and soup.

No. Not only that, another scent appeared together as he opened the cauldron cover.

But whatever Yumina cooks, it'll be delicious, my impatience waiting for her cooking to appear.

After 10 minutes...

Finally all the dishes were ready, so many menus today, but I did not expect that Yumina could make another country's cuisine.

Cassoulet is a dish that originated in Languedoc Paris, Parisians used to eat in winter. Made from beans, meat, and sausages make this food the way of citizens of Paris in winter.

When I found this food on the table, it made me a little amazed, this was the first time I tried this dish.

"Since when did you start cooking dishes like this, Yumina?"

"I—That's.. I don't dare tell you about this, because this is the first time I've made it."

"But it looks so beautiful."

"I beg you not to over-complicate because I'm not sure what it's like."

"Can I taste it?"

"Yes..."

"Good meal..."

I started putting one mouthful into my mouth, the hot steam still soaring in the air.

Huaamm...

A sensation I had never felt filled my mouth, it was filled with such a strong taste.

"It's delicious..."

"really?"

"Really, it's really delicious.."

I don't know how this cuisine tastes, but it's actually delicious. Even though he first cooked something like this, it tasted really good.

Indeed, I never doubted Yumina's great cooking, she'd amaze me every time with something like this.

"Open your mouth, Hari..."

"Huh?"

Spontaneously I was surprised, he stuck out a hand at me, I understood from the movements he made.

"Come on... Aaaaumm.."

"No... It's..."

"Day... Aaaamm.."

Gee whiz... It kept me from reacting for a moment.

Maybe it's normal to do it, but really I can't even though we've tied the wedding vows.

In doubt, I began to follow Yumina's wishes...

Huaamm...

I really could not feel the taste of her cooking, Yumina's joyous face radiated beautifully.

He's really very aggressive if he does this, to be honest I'm quite overwhelmed with him.

We spent the night with the dishes that Yumina made, a night with a pretty beautiful sky with stars decorating that night with sparkling light.

What do you think is the usual thing to do during the new year celebration? Generally people will come to the temple to pray for the coming year.

But like I can't spend the new year with Yumina.

Maybe this new year will be as sad as last year, no celebration or anything else.

I told Yumina that if this new year I am not with her, although it is hard to say it I still say it to her.

The response from Yumina was not averse, I was happy but on the other hand I could see the face of sadness even though she did not directly show me but I knew.

An hour before departure, Yumina helped me with the things, I will stay 2 days there.

To be honest I don't want to stay there for long, if my business is done I'll go straight back home.

"Thank you Yumina.."

"Together."

"Sorry to leave you at a time like this..."

"It's okay, you get your business done."

"Once I'm sorry."

"Suuutt. I'll wait for you to come home, Hari.."

"Yumina... Thanks..."

After saying goodbye to Yumina, I then walked out of the house. I knew Yumina was holding back her grief from me but I pretended not to see it.

I then took a taxi that led to the station, at least 2 hours away by train.

Even when I was on the train, I did not stop thinking about Yumina, even though Chitose was with her but my little heart was worried.

After a while, I finally arrived at my parents' house. It is located in a village that is spread by a large rice field.

However, this place has changed a lot. I don't know, maybe I haven't been here in a long time.

A black car had just arrived, someone in black suit got off the vehicle and started to open the door.

What the hell does this mean? Who her?

"Please enter Mr.." said the man. Mister? No, do I have to go in? I don't know this guy at all.

I was close to their house, but they didn't have to pick me up with this.

I was silent for a moment... Looking at the car reminded me of that person.

It's impossible for that to happen!!

"I'm sorry but who sent you to me?" I said to the man, I'm not going to get in the car before I know who sent this thing.

"I'm..."

Suddenly someone had just walked out the car door, a middle-aged man with a white beard, this man seemed to have a good taste of clothing.

His face was familiar to my eyes.

"You who?"

"Oh... Sorry to introduce myself late. My name is Sakamoto Aki and you must be Kazami Hari, right?"

"Yes, how do you know my name?"

"For that explanation later, now come with me, here it's very uncomfortable to see others."

I was then taken to a place to eat. Eee~.. I feel like this place is so expensive, who is this guy really?

This guy cooked some food, I saw that. Making myself dumbfounded, the meal he ordered looked very expensive. And just like this place was already in the message by him for personal gain.

"Alright, please enjoy the food, do not hesitate.."

It would be rude if it wasn't eaten. Well, besides, eating this is good. Anyone would be lucky to enjoy this expensive meal. Yumina cuisine is much better for me.

Putting aside about that, this fellow was so relaxed as he spoke. He puts himself on a level footing with others.

"Yahh... Did you enjoy it?"

"Yes, thanks for the meal."

Then a servant came and gave me a paper.

This... I then opened the paper given by the waiter, I was silent for a moment.

What's this!! A yumina? Is this not a picture of Yumina?

I looked towards Sakamoto-san, in my mind could it be this person...

"Anu.. don't tell me you...."

"True, I'm Yumina's father.it's good to see you.." smiling.

I expected!!! This guy!! It turns out that Yumina's father, could it be that he held me accountable for marrying his son?!!

At that time I began to panic, how not...

"Fhuuh.you don't need to be too tense at the moment..."

"Well, I didn't expect to see you at all.."

"really? I think it's a good time to meet you."

"So, what business are you having with me?"

"Call me, that sounds more comfortable to hear.."

"... Alright."

"Good... First, I want to thank you for taking care of Yumina.." bowing her head.

"Dad don't bow your head!! Raise your head!!"

He put me in a bad situation, so easily he lowered his head to me. I was surprised when he did that.

"I'm sorry, because this makes little hearts feel worried."

"But why was Yumina there when it rained?"

"He's been looking for you after all this time."

"seeking me? Why?"

"You don't seem to remember that time, do you?"

"Before I didn't understand what you really meant."

"It's okay. Yumina wanted to live alone and when she heard that it made me very worried. Not that I disagree with Yumina's decision, but she is a beautiful child, a lot of people have been after her for a long time and that makes security unsafe. But after I heard Yumina stay with you I can take a breath of relief, especially you and Yumina have been married."

"Sorry about that, I don't intend to marry Yumina quickly. I thought he was lost and I took him to my house and surprisingly we became a couple."

"That's why I sent you a message."

"Maybe? Is this the message you sent?"

"Really... I deliberately didn't tell Yumina about this, I wanted to meet you personally."

"You don't have to bother doing that..."

I was relieved for a moment that the message was not from them. Moreover, I know the reason why Yumina was in the rain that day.

Sakamoto then took me to his residence, but it made me very shocked when I saw his house..

What's this!!! This house is like a palace!!! I really didn't dwell when I found out that my wife Yumina was a wealthy family.

I can only swallow my saliva with a cold dry accompanying it. I'm really gonna die for this.

I am not at all comparable to Yumina if noticed, I must admit I was lucky enough.
