Chapter 20:Summer's Memory ②

Raiha:"Yay, we're going to the beach!"

The quints, Fuutarou and Raiha were on the limo with a direct course to the beach Maruo had sent them to early in the morning. During their trip, they passed the beach Raiha would have invited them to.

Raiha:"I wonder if anyone else we know is down there."

Yotsuba:"Maybe Uesugi-san's friends are there."

Fuutarou:"Maybe...But I'd rather not see that Takeda right now."

Ichika:"Hm? Did you get in a fight?"

Fuutarou:"Well...It's more my fault. Remember when I had him do everything for Raiha? He didn't want to carry her anymore due to his back pains, and at that moment I said, 'You calling Raiha fat!?' I know I'm the one who told him to, but I still felt bad about it..."

...

Nino:"...Are we sure Fuu-kun isn't a siscon?"

Itsuki:"Would it really surprise us?"

Ichika:"Nope."

Yotsuba:"I love Raiha-chan too!"

Miku:"Haha, it's great that you love Raiha-chan, but you should make up with him. It would just be awkward otherwise."

Raiha:"She's right!"

Fuutarou:"...Yeah, you're right....What?"

Ichika:"You should call him now."

Yotsuba:"Who knows when you'll get a chance to see them again?"

Miku:"You got his contacts a while back, right? What's the harm?"

Fuutarou:"...Why do I go along with your games?"

Fuutarou went into a corner of the limo and called Takeda with whispers. Throughout the call, he would look back, he could swear that the five smiling faces watching him were getting closer and closer with each glance. By the end of the call, with his head in his hands, Fuutarou couldn't be more embarrassed.

Itsuki:"How'd it go?"

Fuutarou:"...He took it quite well."

Miku:"That means your friendship is quite strong."

Nino:"To think someone like Fuu-kun could have real friends."

Ichika:"Let's congratulate him."

The five sisters began to clap in unison with a smile.

Fuutarou:"Don't you dare patronize me!"

...

Raiha:"The water is really pretty! Oh, we're going into a tunnel?"

Yotsuba:"Yep, it's a straight shot from here."

Fuutarou:"So the place we're going to is called Umihotaru? I've studied it before, but I don't know anything apart from the basics.."

Nino:"Right now, we're between Tokyo and Chiba, in Tokyo Bay."

Ichika:"Yep, and this is the Aqua-Line. It's a tunnel that leads to Umihotaru, which is an artificial island."

Fuutarou:"Y-Yeah..."

Miku:"Beyond that is Chiba, so this also works as a normal tunnel between the two cities."

Itsuki:"It's pretty old. It's not too well known these days."

Yotsuba:"It's a shame, it's a very convenient road."

Fuutarou:"...And we have that all to ourselves..."

Nino:"Apart from faculty, yes."

Fuutarou stayed quiet after that. At that moment, he was reminded of how filthy rich these girls were. He looked at Raiha being really excited.
