The celebration ended well at half-past nine.
Shuichi and Taichi sent Akemi, Aunt Mayu and the two siblings back to the villa while Nanako and Ryota left together. At the same time, Madam Tokioka went home with her chauffeur.
"Are you tired, sweetheart?" asked Kazuya right after they entered the car.
As planned yesterday, both of them would spend their first night as a married couple at Kazuya's apartment rather than the hotel suite.
"Just a bit," answered Himari, stifling a yawn, "I wanna take a nap."
"En, I'll wake you up once we arrived," Kazuya smiled.
His lady indeed looked exhausted.
Kazuya played soothing melodies in a low volume. The car ride was a smooth one as he maneuvered his dark gray car in the city.
The bright neon lights bounced on the car windows as they passed the skyscrapers, their lights illuminated the inside of the dimly lit car.
