Watashi No Hanayome's
74
Morning, 10.21
Playground.
He still looks moody, and that bothers me enough. “Amane, what happened to you?”
“Eh. T-nothing..”
“Don't lie, I know that you have a problem. Just say.”
“Sorry.”
“Hmm?”
“Sorry, I'm sorry.”
“Huh? For what?”
“I shouldn't have known it, I'm sorry. hiks hiks.” Amane crying.
“Haa, so, yes.” I stroked her head and tried to make her stop crying. “Already, if you already know it, how else.” Most likely, he already knew that I was not from this world and the person who told him that was none other than Koujo Kotaro.
“Hiroaki's. Me, i... A-awww.”
“Stop crying, today I don't want to see someone's sadness. Today, I just want to see it all end happily. So, stop crying.”
“Hiks, fine.”
It took a while for Amane to stop crying, and after that he came back as usual.
Afternoon, 17.02
We enjoy almost all the rides that are here today, and without realizing it is afternoon.
Last ride before returning, windmill. Me and Amane are riding it. “H-Hiroaki.”
“Hmm? What's up?”
“There's something I want to tell you.”
“What?”
“Hiroaki's... I-i'm... Me..” For some reason, today I have no intention of stopping what he wants to say, even though I already know what he will say. “I, like you.”
“You better find someone else who deserves you, you also know that I am not from this world.”
“A-i know... But I still love you. I don't think there's anyone like you in this world.”
“You're overreacting. Of the more than 7 billion people here, there's no way you can't find someone who fits you.”
“But..”.
“Remember, the thing I cannot change is my departure from this world. I have been given 5 months to be in this world, even though 2 months I wasted. But the point is, my departure is absolute.”
“So, sorry to talk that is not-not.”
“Haa, stop. Come back.” The last game is over, and it's time to come back. My time in this world is only 2 days away, and it starts tomorrow. I don't know what I'm gonna do, I don't know, but I don't seem to want to do anything else.
Night time, 20.23
Shirayuki Residence.
Dinner's over, and I'm doing things as usual. “H-Hiroaki, here's the tea.”
“Thanks.” And this night passed like the nights before, very quiet.
Morning, 09.32
“A-Awww... Looks like, I overslept.” I just woke up from my sleep, and my head hurt. And somehow today my body feels so weak. 'It seems, I lack mana.' I lay staring at the ceiling.
“H-Hiroaki, you're up.”
“Amane, what's up?” Today, it looks different.
“T-nothing. I-I will prepare breakfast first.”
“Eh, y-ya.” Even so, at least he did not look as glum as yesterday.
After breakfast is finished.
“H-Hiroaki.”
“Hmm? What's up?”
“E... A-ano.a..."
“What's up?”
“B-Begini.”
“Haa, Amane, if you talk to your opponent in the eye. Don't turn your eyes in all directions.”
“M-Sorry.”
“Haa, so, what's up?”
“Not so, sorry.”
“Haa.” He looks nervous, maybe he's nervous because of yesterday's thing he told me. “Already.”
Today passed without anything happening, and so did the next day. Until at the end.
1 Day before returning.
“Tomorrow, yes.” Although I know that I'll be back tomorrow, but I don't know when exactly. And I'd better ask this to the god Sha.
“Jam 18.00 just when the sun sinks.”
“So. Thanks for the information, Sha.” I didn't think he'd answer it right away, but why just at sunset, what to look dramatic.
“H-Hiroaki, here's the tea.”
“Ahh, thanks.”
“Hiroaki, you'll be back tomorrow, right.”
“Ya.”
“So.”
“Oh yes. Tomorrow do you want to come with me?”
“Huh? Where?”
“Don't ask much, do you want to come along?”
“Good.”.
Tomorrow.
Morning, 09.21
On the way to the bus
“Hiroaki, where are we going?”
“Oh yes, before that. Because you didn't ask for anything for a parting gift. I'll give you this.”
“Card.”
“I no longer need it, you can use it to buy any item you want.”
“So. Thanks.”
After a long time.
We arrived at our destination.
“Pantai?”
“Yes, they seem to have been waiting.”
“They?”
“Ayo.” I rushed to the promised place.
A few minutes later.
“You... Hiroaki, what's going on?”
“As you can see, today is the last day of summer and it is fitting that we do something fun together.”
“But.”
“Quietly, they have joined your group.”
“So.” Even though I said so, the plan I had prepared these past few days was quite time consuming. I almost threatened them to join, because if it wasn't like that I'm sure they wouldn't have survived the next disaster.
“Koujo-kun, where is he?”
“Ahh. He did not join.” Yes, because he was different he decided to do what he could do himself. I wanted to try to force him to come, but the god Sha forbade.
“So.”
“Already, let's enjoy the last day of this summer.”
Today was so calm, the gusts of wind and the sound of these very calm waves relaxed me. “Hiroaki, later tonight there is a fireworks party.”.
“Ah, so.” I forgot about it, but since God Sha has already determined when I return, then I cannot refute it. “Sorry, but anyway it looks like I can't come. I'll be right back by sunset.”
“So.” Amane looks down again.
“Amane, you have to survive. You have to be stronger. This disaster is only the beginning, someday the real disaster will surely come. Disaster this time, you could say that your abilities are still not enough, therefore I came here to help you. But, for the next. You and the others should be able to keep this world, protect this world, therefore.be stronger.” I don't know what I said, but at least after hearing that Amane wasn't moody anymore.
Days passed.
Afternoon
17.51
They all finished changing their swimsuits. “You all satisfied?” Didn't answer, but I can tell 'cause they're all smiling. “If you want days like this to happen, be strong. Much stronger than the current one.”
“But, can we?”
“Of course, nothing is impossible. With hard work, you can protect this world of yours. And don't forget to look for another guardian, because if you're united. Enemy as strong as you can fall.” They looked excited after hearing what I said just now. “Alright. it's time I left. Guard this world with your abilities.”
“Hiroaki.”
“Huh?”
“Goodbye.”
“(smile) Goodbye.”
