After Shika Kagura calmed down, Seiji discussed things with her.
Shika had some personal belongings at her temporary residence, so she had to go pick them up and check out. After that, she would return to her permanent residence to pack up her belongings and move in.
Seiji wanted to help her move, but she refused.
"My belongings... I actually don't have many things to keep. I can carry them by myself."
Her words made Seiji's heart ache.
But since she said so, he couldn't insist.
Shika Kagura needed to say goodbye to her past life. It wasn't impossible for him to be by her side at that time, but judging from her attitude, she wanted to do it by herself.
Saying goodbye to loneliness and moving towards the future. This was her ritual.
"Alright then. I'll send you off, and then I'll ask the landlord to rent... rent a large room and wait for you to return, "Seiji told her.
Shika Kagura smiled from the bottom of her heart. It was sweet and beautiful.
"Okay!"
After they made their decision, they said goodbye to Mai and left.
When Shika Kagura was captured and brought here, she only had a Spirit-branded Retainer's combat uniform.
Now that she was leaving, she wanted to take away the sketchbook and the book with her story ideas.
Seiji, on the other hand, packed his own clothes and luggage.
After they were ready to leave, the two of them found the maid.
"Houjou-san, thank you so much for taking care of me." Shika Kagura bowed in thanks.
"I'm going to leave now. These two books... I'd like to take them with me. Is that alright? As for the clothes... I'll return them after I wash them. "
"No need to be so polite, Kagura-san." Mai smiled gently. "Of course you can take them with you. You don't need to return the clothes either; they're yours."
"Thank you..."
"No need to be so polite. Can I ask, what are your plans after this? "Mai asked as she looked at the girl in front of her.
Seiji had an ominous feeling about this.
"I... intend to live together with Brother Seiji."
Shika Kagura answered in a soft voice. Her face was slightly red as she looked at the boy beside her.
Mai was rendered speechless.
Seiji suddenly felt a terrifying aura emanating from the maid!
He knew this would happen. He smiled bitterly.
"Junior Brother …"
Mai's smile didn't change, but her entire aura changed. She slowly averted her gaze.
"Can you explain it, please?"
What would happen if he refused at this time?
Facing the Smiling Executioner, Seiji definitely did not want to court death.
Thus, he explained the situation sincerely.
Mai retracted her aura.
"Two people living together is bound to have all sorts of problems … If there's anything I can help with, just contact me."
As she spoke, she took out her phone.
"No, it's too troublesome, Senior Sister …" Seiji wanted to decline.
"Tell me the address. I'll pay you a visit when I'm free in the future." The former student council president exuded a faint sense of authority. "Is that okay, Junior?"
"Of course …" Seiji sighed.
Mai nodded in satisfaction. She exchanged phone numbers with him and learned his apartment's specific address.
"Kagura-san, after you move over, please live a good and healthy life. Take care of yourself, and pay attention to this idiot … whoops, this junior's behavior. You must correct his bad behavior, and forbid him from bringing any random girls home."
Mai turned to Shika Kagura and spoke in a serious tone.
Seiji was rendered speechless.
Correct what? What did she mean by 'random girls'!? '
"I know … I'll do my best." Shika Kagura nodded and responded seriously.
Shika-chan actually agreed!? What did she understand? Just what was going on!? Seiji's cheeks twitched slightly.
'My adopted younger sister is having a mysterious conversation with the mysterious maid.'
"Write down my phone number in your notebook, and after you get your phone, contact me if you need anything."
"Okay …"
It was something to be happy about that someone cared about Little Shi, but why did it feel so complicated?
Seiji watched Shika Kagura carefully write down Mai Houjou's phone number and decided not to think too much about it.
'As long as Little Shi feels happy, it's fine.'
"Houjou-senpai, I'm also extremely grateful for your care. I've caused you so much trouble recently."
"Indeed, you've caused me quite a bit of trouble, Haruta -san."
The maid smiled.
"But I'm really happy ~"
Her smile became even more radiant.
"Please take care of yourselves, both of you. As a maid, I welcome you two to come here again at any time. "
Seiji and Shika Kagura exchanged glances before smiling at Mai in unison.
"Thank you, goodbye!"
After leaving the president's residence, the two of them walked to Shika Kagura's temporary residence.
There weren't many people on the street yet, and the boy and girl walked side by side in a moment of silence.
After arriving at the residence, Shika Kagura took his things, and the two of them went to a nearby restaurant to eat breakfast before heading to the train station.
In front of the train station.
"Brother … you can drop me off here."
"You really don't need me to accompany you?"
Shika Kagura smiled and shook his head.
"Today's the school festival, Brother Seiji … you must have an appointment."
"Er …" Seiji scratched his face awkwardly.
Indeed, he had an appointment, and he also needed to help with the class project.
He had taken several days off from school and skipped all the preparation work, so it would be inexcusable if he didn't help out at the store.
"Brother, go ahead and keep your appointment … I'll go pack my things and come back tonight."
"Okay … I'll tell the landlord about it."
A moment of silence fell between them.
"I'm … going now." Shika Kagura slowly turned around.
Seiji watched her leave.
After walking for a while, she slowed down and stopped.
She suddenly turned around.
She saw that the handsome boy was still standing there, smiling at her.
It wasn't a hallucination.
It wasn't a dream.
It wasn't her own delusion.
He was really standing there!
Seiji gave Shika Kagura a gentle smile as she turned around.
She definitely felt uneasy, but she chose to overcome it, and she would definitely be able to overcome it.
All he needed to do was believe and wait.
Just like how she once believed and waited for him.
The two of them exchanged glances.
Shika Kagura retracted his gaze and started walking again.
Her figure no longer felt uneasy.
That was because he was waiting for her.
…
After Mika left her apartment, she heard someone walking down the stairs and turned around to look.
It was Feng Wu Juumonji.
She sighed in disappointment.
The blonde beauty smiled faintly at the twin pigtailed girl's obvious disappointment.
While Harano and Seigo weren't around, they went to school together.
Although they didn't talk much, they weren't as distant as before.
"It's such a pity that he still hasn't returned, even though today's the school festival."
"Yeah …"
"I heard that Yuen Hwa Secondary's school festival has a tradition of confessing … Uehara-san, do you intend to confess to Harano-kun?"
"N-no way."
'What does that have to do with you!' Mika averted her gaze as she thought to herself.
"You don't have such an intention … I don't know what Uehara-san is thinking, but I think that Harano-kun will be confessed to by many girls during the school festival, and perhaps one of them will be a girl that he likes …"
Mika's uneasiness was fanned.
"If you think about it this way, Harano-kun not returning … no, not going to school is actually a good thing … but that's too narrow-minded."
Feng Wu smiled.
"I still hope that Harano-kun can return, go to school, and enjoy the school festival … is that what you think, Uehara-san?"
"Hmph …" Mika didn't respond.
Just what was she thinking? She wasn't sure either.
However, the only thing that was clear was her desire to see him.
Seiji …
Suddenly, she heard footsteps.
Mika woke up two seconds later and hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound, only to see...
"Hey, good morning!"
