Chapter 197: 197
Arriving at Rei-san and Fisan’s home, even though things have become a bit flurried, it seems that dinner is ready, so we moved towards the dining room .
There, I see Fisan laying out lots of food, and looking somewhat happy, Rei-san spoke .
[Oya? It seems like we’re having a feast today . ]
[Yeah, Sieg-chan’s voice came back and Miyamkun came to visit . I have to show him my skills . ]
[……They look delicious . ]
[Mother is the one who taught me how to cook, so she’s pretty good at it . ]
The food lined up on the dining table, had a homely atmosphere, looked very tasty, and I could tell that Fisan was a good cook just by looking at it .
Then, Rei-san and Sieg-san took their seats, while Fisan smiles towards me and pointed to an empty chair .
[Come now, Miyamkun, sit down . ]

The moment I heard those words, a nostalgic scene flashed in my mind .
——–Look, Kaito . Sit down, Mom worked really hard today!]
——–D- D- Doesn’t this look a little extravagant?
——–I mean, it’s Kaito’s birthday! I even baked a cake!
It’s a really nostalgic memory, a childhood memory filled with happiness and love that I had taken for granted .
——–Mom, isn’t this cake crushed flat?
——–Ugghhh… T- That was because it couldn’t carry my love……
——–It would be great if it’s just something like this……
——–You- said- some- thing, Dear?

——–Sorry .

Thinking about it now, that cake was quite a terribly-made one…… It was messed up with cream here and there, the sponge was a bit burnt…… but, it tasted great .
(T/N: Sponge was apparently what the… spongy part of the cake is called . )
[……Miyamkun?]
[Ah, I’m sorry!? Excuse me . ]
In a way, this is the first time I’ve seen the scene of a family sitting together in harmony since I came to this world, and it seemed to remind me of the past, making me freeze .
After Rei-san called out to me, I sat down and a little flustered, I clasped my hands together .
[ [ [ [ Thank you for the food . ] ] ] ]
[……Whoa, Fia, you really stepped up your game today huh?]
[Hmmm…… Delicious . As expected, I still can’t compete with Mother . ]
[Thanks, I’m Sieg-chan’s Mother after all . You won’t surpass my cooking skills that easily . ]

As I listened to their joy-filled voices, I brought the food into my mouth .
I see, Fisan’s cooking certainly is very good…… Its taste is homely yet simple, but it’s so warm and inviting…… How should I say this… It’s like the taste of a mother’s home cooking .
The flavor isn’t so thick, but it’s so delicious that it slowly seeps into my body . It was just the way I like it .
[Miyamkun, what do you think?]
[Yes . It tastes really great . ]
[That’s good—– Miyamkun!?]
[Eh? Arehh?]
I responded to Fisan’s question with a gentle smile on my face, but for some reason, Fisan looked at me with a startled expression on her face .

I also noticed from her reaction, that before I knew it, tears were running down my cheeks .
[I- I’m sorry!? Did it not taste good?]

[Kaito-san, are you okay? Could it be that you aren’t feeling well……]
[Ah, no, that’s not it . This is, errr……]
Somehow, my tear glands seemed to have loosened up when I remembered Mom and Dad .
Hurriedly wiping my tears with my hand, I shook my head at Fisan and Sieg-san who are concernedly asking me, while Rei-san looked at me with equally concerned eyes .
[……It’s just that I slightly remembered my parents……]

[……No, it’s not surprising . It can’t be helped if you remembered your parents back in your world . ]
[……No, my parents…… they passed away back when I was a young child . ]
[……I see, I’m sorry . ]
[No, it was a really long time ago, and I’ve already sorted out my feelings . ]
……I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel lonely without my parents . I still remember Mom and Dad well .

However, I’ve already got my answers about my parents’ deaths in my own way . My parents probably wouldn’t feel relieved if I just stood still and grieved…… Thanks to Kuro, I’m able to think that way .
[……It’s just that, errr, how should I say this…… I slightly remembered when we were all together for dinner as a family . ]
[Kaito-san’s parents must have been very kind people . ]
[Yes…… Ahhh, they were slightly like Rei-san and Fisan, my parents were cheerful people . ]
Unnn, Rei-san and Fisan really are a lot like Mom and Dad .
Dad was usually very cheerful, and he would sometimes say a few unnecessary words that made Mom mad at him, but he was a great father who was very kind and dependable .
Mom was always cheerful and smiling, and even though she was very clumsy and not very good at housework, she was always positive and cheerful .

[……Miyamkun, another helping?]
[Eh? Ah, yes . That would be great . ]
[Unnn, then, I’ll get you some more . ]

[Thank you . ]
As if to brush away the mood that had become a bit gloomy, Fisan cheerfully said that and gave me another helping .
[Miyamkun, just like Fia said on the way here, you can always think of our place as your home . ]
[Ah, yes . Thank you . ]
[Of course, you can consider me as family . If you and Sieg get married, you will actually be one anyway…… So, you can just directly call me father-in-law—–Bfuheee!?]
[……Geez…… You’re really incorrigible……]
[Ahahaha . ]

Feeling their gentle concern, I naturally smiled .
I guess you could say that it was unfortunate that I lost my parents early…… However, I feel really fortunate for the bonds I have today .
I have people who care about me . I have people who comfort me when I’m down…… I feel so happy that it’s almost like a miracle .

Dear Mom, Dad—— I would be lying if I said I completely got over your deaths . However, you don’t have to worry about me . I’m fine here, and I’m feeling happy from the bottom of my heart . I may need a long time before I can become a full-fledged adult, but even today—— I’m still smiling .
After dinner, we continued chatting for a while, and after taking a bath, I was thinking that the only thing left to do was to go to bed when…… Sieg-san suddenly called out to me .
[……Kaito-san, do you mind if we go take a stroll around?]
[A stroll……?]
[Yes, I felt like getting some night breeze, so if it’s fine with you, would you mind coming along?]
[Alright . Let’s go . ]

I had no reason to refuse, so I accepted her invitation and walked out of the house with Sieg-san .
The city of Rigforeshia at night is very quiet, the stars shining in the sky are beautiful, and the comfortable night breeze somehow makes me feel peaceful .
Sieg-san and I began to walk together, not having any particular destination in mind .
We rarely exchanged words, and although our stroll was silent, by no means does it feel uncomfortable at all…… Strangely enough, I felt peace of mind .

Then, we continued on for a while, but when we arrived in the plaza…… I was suddenly gently hugged from behind .
[……Eh?]

[E- Errr, S- Sieg-san!?]
A soft, warm embrace, and the good scent faintly wafting after a bath…… I felt my heart loudly beating as I flusteredly called Sieg-san’s name, and after a moment of silence, still hugging me from behind, Sieg-san spoke .
[……Kaito-san is a very strong person . Always straightforwardly doing your best…… I really respect you . ]
[N- No, it’s not like I’m that great of a person……]
[Even if you think so, you are a man I can truly respect…… I always get courage and energy from the hardworking Kaito-san . So, I sometimes want to return what I felt to you too . ]
[……Errr . I appreciate that but, w- what’s with our situation?]

[……Strong and admirable…… And yet, by no means are you an invincible person…… I want to hug such a Kaito-san right now but…… Is that no good?]

[N- No!?]
[… . . That’s great…… Well then, let’s just stay like this for a bit longer……]
What is this? This feeling…… I was supposed to be very nervous, but I felt truly reassured instead .
Sieg-san is a mature woman who is always kind, calm and dependable…… Just like a dependable older sister .
I was an only child, but if I had an older sister…… would she be like this? Do I think of Sieg-san as an older sister?

……No, but what about the pounding I’m feeling in my chest right now? I don’t think I’m going to have any answers right away…… but it isn’t making me feel uncomfortable .
I don’t know why, but the tears which should have already stopped…… started flowing again .

So this is the power of an adult woman…… who can make others feel comfortable and peaceful……
