Yuuki walked toward Shouko"s home but he was being stopped by this mascot.

the mascot that has the form of a mouse with a green hat and a red ribbon. He has big light brown eyes.

"Can you save this amus.e.m.e.nt park, mofu?"

Yuuki looked at him and said, "Of course."

This mascot looked at him with a fierce gaze and said, "I don"t like you, mofu."

"Is that true? What a coincidence, I don"t like you too."

Both of them were gazing at each other and electricity came out from their eyes.

"Hmph, I will see whether you can do it or not."

Yuuki smirked at him, "You don"t need to do that since I will succeed."

Neither of them said anything and continued to walk.

---

Yuuki arrived at Shouko"s apartment and he knocked on the door.

"YES!!!"

Yuuki moved back and saw the door was being opened. He saw Yuzuru coming out from the door with a smile but became worse when she saw him.

"What are you doing here?"

Yuzuru looked at him with a wary expression.

"Hey, I bring you croquettes," Yuuki showed her croquettes and said, "Why don"t you let me enter? I want to see, Shouko."

Yuzuru looked at the croquettes and smelled it for a bit, "You can give the croquette but you can"t enter."

Yuuki twitched his lips until he heard an angel voice.

"Yuduru!!!"

Shouko suddenly came and reprimanded Yuzuru.

"N-nee-chan!"

"Yooki, plise enter," Shouko smiled.

Yuuki moved naturally and wanted to kiss her forehead but stopped when he saw Yaeko who was in there. He saw her expression wasn"t good and he didn"t force himself to kiss Shouko. He patted her head and gave the croquette to her, "Here, I bring you some good croquette."

Shouko had antic.i.p.ated his kiss but was quite confused when he stopped. She received his gift and startled when she heard her mom"s voice.

"Shouko, why don"t you let him enter."

Shouko nodded and told him to enter. She also missed him but she wasn"t brave enough to show their affection in front of her parents.

---

Yuuki entered her home and was being stared by Yuzuru.

"Why don"t you give up and acknowledge your brother-in-law?" Yuuki asked with a smile.

"NO WAY!!!" Yuzuru shouted.

"Yuzuru, don"t talk too loud!" Yaeko said.

"Yes mom," Yuzuru pouted but still looked at him with a p.i.s.sed expression.

Yuuki ignored her and walked toward Ito who was smiling at him, "Grandma."

"Yuuki," Ito said with a loving expression. She had thought of him as her real grandchildren.

"How is your condition? Are you fine?" Yuuki was worried about her. He knew Ito was around 70 years old and she was at a vulnerable age. It wouldn"t be strange if she suddenly died and he would be sad if that happened. He was also complicated whether he should do something or not. He didn"t know whether he could make someone alive or not but with the death of G.o.d in this world. It was possible to visit heaven or cheated death.


There were many ways to stop her from dying but at the same time, he felt wrong to do that. Yuuki was in deep thought until his head was being patted by Ito.

"Don"t think too much about it, I am fine," Ito said.

"Really? Maybe you can still see me and Shoko getting married then," Yuuki smiled.

"Hahaha, I can"t wait to see that," Ito laughed happily.

Shouko was blushing and hid her face with both of her hands.

Yuzuru clenched her hands very hard and jumped toward him, "b.a.s.t.a.r.d! I won"t acknowledge it!"

"But your grandmother has acknowledged it," Yuuki said.

"BUT I DON"T!!!" Yuzuru tried to fight him but the difference in height made it impossible for her to hit him.

Yaeko could only sigh and drank a beer on her hand. She should be happy right now seeing her mother and daughters were happy but she felt numb in her body. She tried to forget this feeling with drinking beer every day but seeing him like this with her daughter made her feel complicated. She could only try to look away and ignored their interaction since it was painful for her.

Yuuki looked at Yaeko who was drinking a beer by herself. He shook his head and decided not to think about it. He could still remember the day when both of them had their fun together but he was Shouko"s girlfriend and Yaeko was his mother-in-law. He didn"t know what would Shouko do when she knew he had a fling with her mother in the past. But he still remembered Eri"s words during the airplane incidents. He shook his head and walked sat beside Yaeko.

Yaeko looked at him and didn"t say anything. She continued to drink her beer.

"How are you?" Yuuki asked.

"I am fine, my daughter is happy now, as a mother there is nothing I can hope for," Yaeko said.

"Tell me if something happens, I am also part of your family now," Yuuki said.

Yaeko looked at him and said, "Family, huh? I guess you will be my son-in-law if you married Shouko."

"What do you think?"

Yuuki looked at her straight but this didn"t make Yaeko flinch or uncomfortable. She looked at him and said, "Please take care of my daughter."

Yuuki could only sigh and said, "Don"t worry, I will take care of her."

They continued to talk but he decided not to stay too long since it was quite late. He said goodbye to them and walked back to his apartment.

Yaeko walked back to her room and buried her head in the pillow, "If only I was younger." She started to sleep and dreamed about her life during high school. She dreamed she met him at her high school time and dated happily until both of them had children. Though it was only a dream, it was a beautiful dream for her.
