[Jirota's Point of View]

“Oh man, I never expected this, bro.”

The men who serve the Kaida family, Niikawa Saburo and his brother Jirota, return to the Kaida household.

“I never thought something like this would happen.”

“…Saburo.”

Before returning to the mansion, Jirota puts a warning in Saburo.

“What is it, bro?”

“You’d think I’d know, but about Ueda-sama and Matsumoto-sama, Kogen-sama…”

“You know, but keep it a secret, right?”

…Does he know?

His younger brother is a bit of a loose-lipped mess. Even though they were raised in the same environment, he’s become a bit of a loser.

“Don’t worry, don’t worry, I’m a tight-lipped guy.”

“I hope so.”

Jirota sighs, but knowing his younger brother…

“Jirota!”

That evening.

Jirota was making dinner for Kogen-sama and his granddaughter, Ryuko…

“I heard it, Jirota!”

…Kogen’s face was shining.

Oh dear…Jirota had half expected this to happen, so he could only sigh.

“Why did you keep quiet about Shinji and Rika? Seriously! Grandpa is looking forward to it!”

…Here we go…. Sigh…

“Kogen-sama. It’s not a good idea to interfere too much with those two.”

“Hmm? Why? Isn’t it a good thing?”

It seems that the old man genuinely thinks it’s a good thing.

Well, it is. It must be a good thing.

“Those two are still minors. How do you feel about this being revealed in such a bad situation?”

“Hmm…”

“There is something called the public’s opinion. Those two are still students, so it’s inevitable that people around will look at them strangely.”

“But…here we go! Grandpa wants to celebrate!”

…Here we go.

Is this guy a child?

“Besides, we haven’t decided yet what you two are going to do.”

“What?! Are you trying to ruin this happy event?! I won’t forgive you!”

“There’s no room for forgiveness or not. The decision is up to the people involved.”

“Grrr… but…”

Jirota sighs.

Jirota knows that this old man has gone too far.

If he’s left alone, he’ll get out of control, so he puts a stop to it.

“Until Ueda and the others decide what to do, I think it’s best to watch over them in silence.”

“Mmmm… I get it. I’ll respect your opinion.”

That’s good… Jirota sighs in relief.

For now, he’s bought some time.

Now it’s up to Shinji and the others to decide what to do.

…before that.

“Saburooooooooooooooooo!”

“Aaaaah! I’m so sorry! Kogen-sama said he’d buy me a PS5!”

“How old are you!”
