"You don't need to tell me about the school transfer, your affairs are already up to you."

"It's like what your mother would say." Narumi walked down the corridor outside the ward, and although he had slowed down as much as possible, there was someone next to him, and he kicked his steps loudly.

"Mother is interested in someone who has already arrived, do you want to meet?" He heard Imadegawa Chisaka in the hospital room ask.

"Of course I want to meet, I heard that he is still a handsome guy, I don't know if he is worthy of my daughter in other aspects."

"It's up to me whether you're worthy of it or not."

"Hey, I know." Narumi had already placed his hand on the doorknob, not to enter, but to prevent others from opening the door for him.

Hearing Imadegawa Jin's answer, I wondered if I could add points if I cleaned up before I came. Then he tapped the back of his hand and knocked on the door.

"Please come in." It was the voice of Imadegawa Jin, and Narumi Yu didn't move. After a few seconds, it was changed to Imadegawa Chisaka to speak.

"Come in." He breathed a sigh of relief and pushed the door open.

"Excuse me, Chisaka-san......" Narumi Yu first looked at the girl on the hospital bed, then moved his eyes to the woman sitting next to the hospital bed, and hesitated to speak,

"And, Chisaka-san's sister?" In his dream, he had seen Imadegawa Chisaka's mother, but at this moment in reality, he shouldn't have seen each other before.

"I'm very good at talking." With a slight smile on his face, Imadegawa Jin looked Narumi up and down.

“…… This is my mother, just call me Auntie. Imadegawa Chisaka was staring at him the same way, looking at him like a fool and opening his mouth to introduce.

"Auntie is a little old, but it's really inappropriate to call me sister......" Imadegawa Jin thought about it, and finally came to a conclusion,

"Why don't you call my mother?"

"Ahh This ......" Narumi Yu showed full surprise and panic, waving his hand again and again,

"I'm still ...... Let's ask Chisaka-san first...... I'm sorry. "Alas...... Although there was no sound, he could hear Imadegawa Chisaka already sighing in his heart for such an incorrigible act.

"Is that so?" Izukawa Jin's beautiful eyes flowed, looking at his expressionless daughter. Imadegawa Chisaka couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Narumi San, be normal." ”

“…… Be. Narumi walked closer, leaned to the other side of Imadegawa Chisaka's hospital bed, and bowed to Imadegawa Jin,

"Good morning, Auntie, Chisaka-san is my life-saving benefactor, I just want to do my best to do something to make up for the guilt in my heart, I hope Auntie doesn't blame."

"Looks like Narumi doesn't seem to listen to you very much." The mother still passed the ball to Chisaka Imadegawa and watched her reaction with a leisurely expression.

"I've only known each other for a short time, so it's normal not to listen to me." Even so, Narumi Yu felt that Imadegawa Chisaka's eyes were a little more dangerous.

What's going on? Before returning to reality, it was completely impossible to see that Imadegawa Chisaka had such a strong possessiveness for something.

Is it because I've been lying in bed to recuperate, and I've been traumatized psychologically?

"That's ......" Imadegawa Jin looked at Narumi and asked,

"That's interesting...... Doesn't Narumi-san like girls? ”

"I love Chisaka-san." Narumi Yu suddenly spoke solemnly. The breeze blew the curtains and white veils, and when his voice fell, only the breathing of the three could be heard quietly in the room.

"Ahem...... It's a little hot. He just felt hot on his body, especially on his face. I couldn't help but pull my collar and turn my eyes to the window.

"You're blushing, Narumi-san." For some reason, he felt that Imadegawa Chisaka's voice was a little small, and he wanted to pretend that he didn't hear it, but he felt bad.

"Yes...... Is it? ”

"Well, both of you are red-faced." Imadegawa Jin's voice sounded relaxed and happy.

“…… Mother? ”

"Ah, I'm sorry...... It's just Narumi who blushes. Mother smiled brightly. Both of them were a little quieter, but they couldn't reach his ears more clearly.

No matter how loud the noise is, whether it's the sound of the wind whirring through the window, whether it's so nervous that you start to breathe in and out through your mouth, or why you can't stop your heartbeat...... There was no way to stop him from listening to every word Imadegawa-san said.

"It's just a blush......," said the girl.

"I was just suddenly frightened by Narumi-san's voice." The girl said.

"Suddenly being confessed in front of my mother, no matter who it is, will have some reaction, and I am also human after all." The girl said again.

"......" In the end, she gave up on herself, stopped arguing, and looked at the ceiling to calm down. The nurse brought rice porridge and brought it to Narumi Yu.

Narumi Yu wanted to give it to Imadegawa Chisaka's mother, but he didn't give it away after going around in a circle. Finally, at the girl's own request, it was passed back to the nurse.

Poor little nurse, holding rice porridge and not knowing what to do. In the end, it was the mother who took the rice porridge and carefully fed it to her daughter one by one.

One o'clock in the afternoon is the time for Imadegawa Chisaka to rest. Narumi Yu was called out of the ward by Imadegawa Jin, and was half-forced to get into the car and go to a restaurant near the hospital to eat.

"These days, Chisaka has been taken care of by Narumi San."

The seat of the "Where ......" sedan was very comfortable, but he always felt uncomfortable, and even had the idea of jumping out of the car while waiting for a red light.

The sedan turned a few corners and stopped in front of a simply decorated kiosk. If you book a private room in advance, you can see the flower pond in the courtyard of the pavilion.

The ingredients are fresh and the cooking techniques are smart. It's just that the portion size is a little small, and you can't be in a hurry if you want to be full.

"I heard that Narumi is renting a house now? We still have some spare houses, do I want to take you to see them? ”

"Thank you, Auntie, for your kindness, but I'm still just a friend of Imadegawa-san after all......"

"Call me mother like Chisaka." Imadegawa Jin looked at him and said in a gentle voice. With the power of the Imadegawa family, it is not difficult to know the situation of his family.

"No, no...... Let's talk about this kind of thing later. ”

"You kid......" Imadegawa Jin couldn't help but laugh, shook his head, and stopped the topic. Stretch out the bamboo and bring the tempura shrimp wrapped in a thin layer to your mouth and take a bite.

"Well...... After a long time alone, you will get used to it. Narumi hesitated for a few seconds, but then spoke.

After all, it is to be called later

A person who is "a mother".

"Sure enough, it's the same as Chisaka said, it's a smart child."

"It's not as good as Chisaka-san."

"That's not necessarily ......," Imadegawa said meaningfully,

"If you are a member of the Imadegawa family, you must be more suitable than Kochisaka to support the Imadegawa family."

"How could it be ......" he subconsciously denied,

"Chisaka-san is ...... than me," but when he was halfway through, he suddenly stopped. He remembered the dream of Imadegawa Chisaka, a girl who never wanted to live

In the "cage", live in the rules and regulations. The person sitting in front of him was the mother of Chisaka Imadegawa anyway, how could he not understand his daughter?

"What a person is suitable for is never determined by virtue alone. There are so many talented people in the world, and there are always people who like to have a peaceful life. Imadegawa Jin looked at the stunned Narumi Yu and said with a smile,

"I can't give it to her, I can only hope that the person who will be with her the longest in the future can give it to her." After a long time, Narumi Yu took a deep breath.

"That's ......"

"That's right."

"I'll do my best." …………
