Yukinoshita was in the middle of her job, doing everything to supervise everyone until she heard a familiar voice.
"Senpai!"
"Shishio?"
Yukinoshita was in a daze for a moment since he wore a student uniform in the Taisho Era. She hadn't looked at him since she thought of visiting his cafe, yet she was busier than she had thought. However, she also felt it was a normal thing since it was the first day of the cultural festival.
Many were still awkward and hadn't gotten used to the business and crowd, which appeared at this festival, so she didn't have time to visit him, yet she didn't expect he would visit her.
More importantly, she was hugged!
"Wh-what's wrong?" She was shy and blushed, but she didn't push him away. If this wasn't public, she would hug him back, but there were many people around, which made her shy. Still, she enjoyed this moment until she heard a familiar voice again.
"Yukino."
"..."
Yukinoshita was stunned and turned before she saw her mother, Haruno, and also Shishio's mother.
"Mo-Mother! An-And, Shioriko-obaa-san."
"Geez, don't call me Obaa-san. It makes it feel like our relationship feels distant, right?" Shioriko smiled.
"Ye-Yes." Yukinoshita lowered her head shyly.
Still, when Shishio and Yukinoshita were so close, Shioriko and Takako nodded in satisfaction since this was what they wanted to see.
As a mother, Shioriko wanted to beat up her son for playing with many girls' hearts, yet there was nothing she could do. However, if he could be happy with Yukinoshita, it would be great since, compared to the others, she felt Yukinohita was more suitable to become his wife, especially when their education, background, and blood matched to each other.
If Shishio wanted to focus on his career, Shioriko could also imagine Yukinoshita would do her best to help him.
Still, the two noticed Yukinoshita's change.
Yukinoshita was beautiful, the two of them didn't doubt it, yet this time it was different. She had become radiant and seemed even more beautiful.
Shioriko and Takako looked at each other for a moment.
"Can we settle the marriage after they have graduated?"
"Let's talk with them beforehand."
"...if your son doesn't marry my daughter, can I cut his manhood?"
"Don't."
The two of them bickered on the side to determine Shishio's future, yet could they blame Takako? Especially when she realized her daughter was no longer a virgin.
Shioriko was helpless, but she gave thumbs up to Shishio since no one could take Yukinoshita away since, whether it was her heart or body, they were already his.
Haruno didn't hear their conversation, but she pouted and looked away.
However, Shishio, who listened to their conversation, which was impossible to ignore, felt that he should become even stronger since if he wasn't strong, he might be targeted by Takako. Somehow, he suddenly missed Ayaka since, unlike the iron woman, Takako, the two of them were the gentlest women he knew.
Yet he knew that the tougher the exterior was, the softer the interior was.
It was the case with Yukinoshita, and it should be similar to Takako.
As for how he could be so sure, it was because he had an experience with a mother and a daughter.
"By the way, are you still busy? Do you want to join us?"
"Well..." Yukinoshita thought for a moment, and the people around her started to urge her.
"You should go, Yukinoshita-leader."
"Yeah, leave the rest to us."
She looked at the group of girls behind, who supported her to leave, which made her feel a bit speechless and happy with their growth. "Okay, thank you." She held Shishio's hand, then looked at her parents. "Mother, m-mom... do you want to watch our movie?"
"Sure." 2x
Takako and Shioriko smiled happily at this moment.
While the four of them were walking toward the service club to watch the movie, Haruno sighed, but she didn't say anything since she should have expected this, right?
---
Before long, they arrived at the Service Club, and as expected, there were so many people. However, with their identity, it was easy to pass the line, or rather, everyone stared at Shishio dumbfoundedly since as long as they watched the movie, they would know that he was the actor.
While Yukinoshita let his mother, her mother, and Haruno watch the movie, he noticed someone.
"Mai?"
"Oh."
Mai Sakujirajima unexpectedly also came to the Service club to watch the movie again, and she quickly noticed Shishio's mother and Yukinoshita's family. She moved closer and asked, "Are you going to get married?"
"...don't joke around."
Mai pouted, but she knew even if the engagement between him and Yukinoshita stopped, it didn't mean the relationship between his family and her family stopped. Instead, they became closer.
This was the truth of the world.
It was like how her mother used her for money.
She didn't like this, but as of now, she knew she didn't have the power to stop it.
Yet, somehow, all of her worries disappeared when he held her hand. She looked at him in a daze and asked, "Are you not afraid that your in-laws and mother will notice it?"
"It's okay."
"..."
"...geez, don't blame me if they cut your penis then."
"....can you be optimistic and think they will forgive me?"
"Do you think they will forgive you?"
"....."
"Right?"
"No, my silence means they don't have a choice besides to forgive me."
"What do you mean?" Mai was confused.
"It's okay. Just watch the movie."
Mai looked at him for a moment and looked at his in-laws, who were focused on the movie, before she leaned on his arm.
Still, what Mai didn't know, Haruno had been staring in their direction with a frown before she looked at Yukinohita, who sat between Shioriko and Takako calmly while answering their question.
Did Yukinoshita not realize this?
Did Yukinoshita realize this, but she let him do whatever he wanted?
Haruno didn't know, but she realized her brother-in-law was a scumbag.
---
When the movie ended, they walked out of the Service Club, but Mai stayed since she still wanted to learn more about the movie while also telling him that she wanted him to make a full version of this movie and act with her.
He didn't make a promise, but he would do his best. Still, he wasn't that excited about the prospect of the full "Love Letter" movie since there were two male characters in the full movie version.
One was the actor, who died, and also the first love of the main heroine.
As for the other, it was the man who dated the heroine afterward.
If he played this movie, who would he become?
Still, if he was asked, he would say he would become the man who dated the heroine afterward. After all, what was the use of becoming a dying man?
He shouldn't die.
Also, instead of first love, he wanted to become the man who got the heroine's heart and body at the end.
After all, no matter how many times the competition was, the last one who was laughing was the victor.
However, this was something that would happen in the distant future.
As of now, it should be better for him to focus on his outing with his family.
The five walked around the school and visited many places, including the literature club. Then, they bought the anthology and looked around the horror-like cafe, which was also one of the most popular places in the cultural festival.
Especially with the horror theme-like foods, which made everyone enjoy the cafe even more.
However, while Yukinoshita, Haruno, Shioriko, and Takako enjoyed the cafe, Shishio talked with Momo Kawashibara.
"Did you see someone weird?"
"Someone weird?" Momo thought for a moment and shook her head. "No, I don't see anyone as weird."
"Is that so? Please tell me if you see someone."
"Okay~!" Momo nodded, then asked, "It is a girl, right?"
"Yeah, it should be a girl."
He knew that the person who had messed up Kiriya should be a female instead of a male.
"By the way, how do you tell if someone is weird or not?" Momo asked.
"No one from outside of the school knows that the advisor of our club is Kiriya-sensei. Kiriya-sensei's family won't come to this event, and none of his acquaintances should have come, so when someone asks about Kiriya-sensei, then this person should be the culprit."
Kiriya had told him that none of his acquaintances or his family would come to visit the cultural festival, so when someone asked about Kiriya, then the culprit was obvious, right?
"Okay, leave it to me." Momo patted her chest, causing her breasts to tremble. "By the way, do you want to meet my parents too?" She leaned forward and whispered those words.
"......."
Shishio was silent, wondering whether Momo wanted to introduce him to her mother.
When they finished their conversation, Shishio excused himself and went to see the drama in Yui's class with Yukinoshita, Haruno, his mother, and Takako.
He was quite curious about Totsuka's drama, so he came to visit. He also remembered that Hayama's father should be the lawyer of Yukinoshita's family business, so he couldn't help but ask, "Hayama's father is the lawyer of your family business, right?"
"Yes." Takako nodded and asked, "What's wrong? Did he cause you trouble?"
"If he causes me trouble, what will you do?"
"I will just fire his father and destroy his family," Takako said with a smile.
"........"
While he was speechless, he asked, "Is that okay? As your family's lawyer, he should know many secrets about your family, right?"
"Shishio-kun, you shouldn't underestimate our family. A little lawyer is nothing." Takako had never changed her expression, only smiled gently at him.
"Is that so?" He didn't feel surprised since this was the reality. When one reaches a certain level in life, it is possible to do anything, even if that person wants to erase someone's life.
Especially in this country, where the hierarchy and bloodline are something important.
"So, did he cause you trouble?" Takako asked again.
"No, he doesn't, but even if he does, I can handle everything on my own. I shouldn't rely on you, Takako-obaasan, but thank you for your kindness, and as you have said before, a little lawyer is nothing."
He only smiled and didn't show much upside-down on his emotion.
"That's good." Takako smiled even more brightly.
"...." Yukinoshita and Haruno.
Still, as they watched the drama in Yui's class, they had to say it was kind of weird since the two guys were acting like they were in love.
Was this really a "Little Prince"?
Shishio wondered whether he had read the wrong book.
However, Hayama Hayato was so nervous at this moment since the one who was watching his show was Takako.
Was this a punishment?
He wasn't sure, but he couldn't fail and needed to show his best since he didn't want to make trouble.
After they visited Yui's class, they didn't walk around again since Takako and Shioriko had decided to go home. It might be only a few hours that they visited the cultural festival, but it was already impressive that they could spare their time to come.
Yet when they were about to leave, someone suddenly approached Momo and bought the anthology.
"Thank you very much," Momo said cheerfully.
"Um... the teacher advisor of this club... who is it?"
Momo looked up and didn't expect to meet the culprit so easily.
