Chapter 2 | I'm Worried | Remake our Life!
Part 6
I helped
Saikawa to stand for the time being, and waited for Hikawa to come back.
"My
bad, he got away. Sorry."
It seems
that he escaped to the alley when the distance increased a little, and he gave
up the pursuit.
"Oh,
no, thank you. I'm sorry for the inconvenience..."
Saikawa
kept bowing her head.
"For
now, I think we should go to the store to explain the situation. Saikawa
also... still wearing that uniform."
When I
said that, Saikawa's face turned bright red,
"T-That's
right! I was dressed like this in front of the seniors!"
Perhaps
realizing it now, she rushed back to the store.
"Then,
we'll explain it to the store staff, Hikawa."
"Ou,
before it gets too big"
When
Hikawa and I met with the store owner, we talked about what had just happened.
He immediately understood the situation and asked Saikawa to leave immediately.
It seems that the store has the rule to deal with customers who cause trouble,
because it is often seen as a kind of store.
And as for
the suspicious person, one oddly matching piece of information was brought to
my attention.
"A
second-year student in the Department of Visual Arts?"
"Yes,
that's right. I don't know his name, though..."
Although
he was a regular customer of the store, she said she could not identify his
name because he did not have a member's card. However, based on his
conversation and the witnesses of other store workers, there was no doubt about
his school, department, and grade.
"What
can I say? That's what it was about."
"Yes,
I'm really sorry for doubting you..."
Saikawa
had bowed her head many times.
I had
thought that Saikawa had been very wary of me when we first met and when I
joined the club, but I hadn't realized that there was a story behind it.
"It's
unusual for Hashiba to be under such suspicion."
As Hikawa
said, it could be called a valuable experience. But it's something I'd like to
avoid as much as possible.
"So,
if you don't feel safe going home, would you like to take refuge at my
place?"
"Y-Yes...
I think it's a shared house, right, with Aki-san and Nanako-san."
If you've
heard about it, it's easy to talk about. If you go to a man's house, it will be
difficult to evacuate because of what happened.
"All
right, let's get a move on."
