บท 292: Returning Home (2)

***

The next day the group of students boarded the train back to Yokohama. When it came time for everyone to go their separate ways, there was a bit of reluctance.

After all, they'd just spent the past 2 weeks together and had accomplished something great. So even though they would see each other once school resumed in another week, the goodbyes made it seem as though that wasn't the case.

Ken and Ai returned home, going their separate ways at the intersection.

Despite their conversation last night, Ai had returned to normal. Being a man, he could not understand the intricacies of his female counterpart, so he decided to ignore it completely.

'She'll tell me if there's anything wrong.' He said inwardly.

Soon enough he arrived home to see his Mother and Father already waiting for him.
