As i woke up i heard a truck nearby in my house. I looked outside it was an old lady, He was with Aoki. Wait WHAT? Does she like old people? No calm down stupid, I ate breakfast then went out to meet the grandma. I went out prepared my courage and head to her, She was sitting in a bench
"Hello Grandma, have you recently moved houses?, I have never seen you in this neighborhood" i said, Of course she's new what do you think the truck is for
"Ah, You're right i just moved" the grandma said
"Do you need help carrying stuff? Im pretty strong for a girl" i showed my arms
"There's no need i already have the right boy to help me with"
"Who? Is he somebody you knew?" i said while sitting down with her
"My grandchild, Aoki Haruta"
"Of course" For some reason i thought she was his lover good thing
"Do you know him?"
"What are you doing here" This sound its familiar it must be Aoki, As i turned around it was Aoki
"Talking to grandma and you?"
"Moving some stuff that my grandma wanted"
I talked to Grandma and Aoki for a bit, They asked me to join in for breakfast, I gladly accepted. Today is Sunday but i wonder where are his parents. I wanted to meet them for a long time and i just realized this is my first time ever going to his house, I sat down in the dinner table
"Hey Aoki where's your parents, Its been so long that i havent meet them. Plus i owe your mom an ice cream"
He was about to say something but he stopped
"They're busy"
"With what? Let me help after all when we were a child we helped your parents by cutting apples and do laundry"
"Its none of your business" he said while looking away
"Huh? What does that mean? Fine then" i looked away
After the food was done We ate together, I sometimes looked at Aoki he ate with a smile in his face, I guess he really loved her cooking. When i already was full i wanted to go to the toilet
"Hey Aoki, Where's the bathroom?"
"Go upstairs and it's beside my room"
I procceded to go upstairs. There's 2 room though hmm i guess I'll go with the left one. When i opened the door. Ah is that why you didn't want to talk about your parents, I really am sorry, I saw a shrine of his parents. I closed the door and went to the bathroom. Then i went back to the kitchen
"What took you so long? Cmon lets play a game"
"Sorry" i said embarassedly while looking down
"Oi, are you okay?"
I nooded and tears began to flow over my eyes
"Ah, So you openned the wrong door. That's okay, Its my fault that i didnt tell you which door it was. Sorry" he said
"Its my fault for mentioning your parents, You must've been lonely right?"
"Yeah but everything change because of you, Because of you i enjoyed going to school, Having new friends. You're really amazing you know? You really are. Without you I'd probably get lost and be lonely at school. So what im trying to say is thank you so much" he said with a smile
"No you're amazing on your own"
After that talk i went to the shrine again and payed my respects. After that we went to his room and played games all day. When it was 7PM i was just about to go but Aoki held my hand
"Can you wait for a bit longer" he said
"O-okay"
He stood up and went to the drawer to pull out a big book? I wonder what it is
"Hey come here" he said
i went to him to see that the book was called "Memories" from that book i saw a photo of his grandpa and grandma i think? from that on to his parents and then finally us. So this is a book of photos
"Is this you? Were we really that close?" he said while pointing his finger to my face
"Yeah that's when you were romantic you know? you said 'Wait, My Queen please do not walk. I Roberto must create my own transportation' i really miss that side of you" i said while laughing
"I said that?!!" he shouted
"Yeah"
"No, no dont lie to me there's no way i call you a Queen"
"Well those are facts all i can say is i like the past you"
"Ah, is that so?"
"Yeah, You're really back then" i said while smiling
"How about now?"
"I dont know. I dont have an answer yet atleast"
We proceeded on the next page. He was still cute when he was in Junior High School.
"Looks like you were lively in Junior High School too" i said
"I guess so, I think this guy was called Kai he was a good guy who likes to play Soccer and this guy is Hinata despite his size he can jump higher than me and he loves to play volleyball"
Wait i think ive heard of that guy somewhere hmm, Oh well
"How about this girl?" i said while pointing to this girl
"Her name was Chika he was bright good girl and an airhead. Among all the girls she was the closest to me"
"Ah its almost 7.30 i gotta go lets talk again tommorow" i said while getting ready to leave
"Oh wow time flies fast i'll escort you outside my lady" he said
I blushed who is this Roberto or aoki? "F-fine" i said. I went downstairs to say goodbye to her
"Bye Grandma i'll come again tommorow" i waved at her
"Bye" grandma said
Aoki openned the door and we said our goodbyes
"Looks like you found yourself a good girl Aoki, You dont have to worry anymore Ebina, Makoto. Your son found meaning in living again" Grandma said
