Chapter 1731 - Place To Return...
Chapter 1731 – Place To Return…
Senka and Tsumugi looked at Haru and Maki at the inn entrance, helping them put their luggage in their car.
"Now that you mention it, how old are you this year? Can you get a driver's license with your age?" Senka asked with a frown. After all, she knew that only someone at 18 could get a driving license.
"I'm 17," Haru said with a smile.
"Huh? Then how the hell can you get the license?!" Senka was dumbfounded.
Haru chuckled and said, "I just have a connection."
"……." Senka and Tsugumi, for the first time, had to admit that his laughing face was really handsome, but more than that, they thought that Haru, who had been very with them for the past few days, was more mysterious than they had thought.
"Thank you for your help in the past few days, Senka-nee, Tsumugi-san," Haru said with a smile.
"It's alright. Still, the time moves very fast, huh?" Senka looked at the distance and said, "Even though you have been in this city for the past few days, it feels like only a day has passed or something."
"Really? So I guess you are happy with me coming here, right?" Haru said with a smile.
"…….." Senka blushed lightly and slapped Haru's back very hard. "What the hell are you talking about?!
"I was joking." Haru smiled and said, "Well, if we have time, we'll visit this city again."
Senka nodded and said, "Yes, you can come anytime in the future. Our inn has always welcomed you."
"Thank you, Senka-nee." Haru looked at Senka, who smiled at this moment and thought that it made him recall his time when he stayed in this city. "Well, we'll go back now. If we continue to talk, I'm afraid that we might feel reluctant to go back."
"Hehe, I guess you really like this place, huh?" Senka said with a happy smile.
"Um." Haru nodded and said, "Yeah, my parents have passed away, so I guess, having met a big sister who has taken care of me in the past somehow makes a bit emotional —" He hadn't finished his words since Senka directly hugged him.
"Uwaaa~~ Just come if you want to come! I'll welcome you anytime!" Senka cried directly, hugging him tightly.
Haru felt a bit helpless and patted Senka's back, smelling her smell, which somehow made him relaxed.
Maki and Tsumugi didn't say anything. They only looked at both of them, thinking that their relationship was very close, but unlike Tsumugi, who thought that both Haru and Senka were like a family, Maki thought it might be only a time before Senka might join his harem.
After parting, Haru said goodbye and left with Maki, leaving this city while wondering whether he should visit this place again.
Senka looked at the car that slowly left, and somehow she felt a bit empty and lonely when she saw him had left, wondering when he would return.
"Senka-san?" Tsumugi asked.
"Well, let's work hard today, Tsugumi!" Senka said with a smile.
"……." Tsumugi looked at Senka for a while and nodded. "Yes."
—
Along the path where they left, Haru noticed several girls that he knew from his childhood time.
"You're not going to say goodbye to them?" Maki asked.
"Will you be happy if I do so?" Haru asked.
"No," Maki said simply.
"Then I won't do it." Haru looked straight and said, "I have promised that I won't get any girls and focus on you during this trip, right?"
"But on the next trip, you might add another harem, right?" Maki asked while staring at Haru.
"……" Haru.
"Well, if it's Senka-san, then I don't really mind since it seems that your relationship is pretty much close." Maki looked at Haru and asked, "Now that you mention it, you don't talk much about your life here, right? We have a lot of time before we arrive in Tokyo. Can you tell me more about your story?"
"It's alright, but it isn't that interesting, though," Haru said.
"It's alright, just tell me…" Maki said while staring at Haru with a puppy-like expression.
Haru let out a sigh and said, "Well, I'll tell you…" He had to admit that his memory in this place wasn't all good, but a lot of them were good memories that he couldn't forget, and personally, when he could talk about his experience to his loved one, he felt that the burden on his chest was lifted.

Nao saw Haru's car that walked away from this city, and she wasn't sure how long he would return. She let out a long sigh and thought that she might be the only one who was trapped in the past. Looking at him with Maki, she felt sad, but at the same time, she was relieved when she saw him alright.
"Sigh…."
Nao looked at the distance and wondered whether there was a man who was more wonderful than Haru in this world…
—
Unlike Nao, Akira, the shrine maiden, who danced at the festival before, knew that Haru also had gone back to Tokyo, but she didn't come out from her shrine, only laid in her room absentmindedly.
Akira and Haru had talked for a while after she ended her dance. She remembered the time when she played together with Haru and Sora at that time and felt that it was really a good day, but she knew that everyone had grown up and everyone had changed. However, she felt lonely. After all, he was with someone else, and the time they spent together might not be able to return.
Akira then turned her body, staring at the ceiling, raised her hand as if trying to reach something.
"Haru…"
—
After Haru sent Maki back, he returned, and at the same time, he thought to visit that city again, but not so soon, after all, there were a lot of things that he needed to do at this moment, and there were a lot of girls that he needed to take care of.
Haru thought about Senka and Akira that he had met before, and there was a smile on his face, but then, he thought that he was really a greedy man.
It didn't take a long time before Haru arrived at his home, then after he parked his car, he saw someone had been waiting for him.
"Welcome back. How was your trip?" Sora asked, looking at Haru, who had just returned.
"It's great." Haru smiled and said, "Do you want to come with me next time?"
Sora looked at Haru for a while and grabbed his hand. "Well, you can tell me later. For now, let's forget about that city since I really miss you."
Haru looked at Sora, who had pulled him and knew what this girl wanted to do. He only smiled then carried her in his arms. "I also miss you." He missed her cheek and said, "Let's do it a lot of times today."
"Call Utaha and Megumi too. I might not be able to take you by myself," Sora said with a smile and was somehow glad that this guy was a pervert.
Haru didn't know what this girl was thinking, but he had a new home now.
