Chapter 70 : Date with Sig

Chapter 70 : Date with Sig

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

"As promised, the two of us are going on a date tomorrow!"

"Eh? Ye-Yes?"

A few days later after our first sleepover, I went to visit them in their rental house again. We had just finished lunch, which I had cooked myself. I was relaxing in the living room when Sig-san exclaimed, pressing me to answer to his words quickly. His tail was wagging back and forth excitedly.

That's right. Tomorrow is my date with Sig-san.

"The two of us are going to go finish our quest so make sure you guys don't stay out too late, okay?~"

"Yes."

"Okay then. Ren, I will go pick you up so can you please prepare a lunch box for two tomorrow?"

"Alright...?"

Right. Fer-san and Chris-san had to go to finish their quest while I went on a date with Sig-san. I hoped Fer-san and Chris-san wouldn't get hurt...

Though... Lunch box? I wonder where Sig-san planned on taking me?

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー
"Good morning, Sig-san. Where are we going today?"

As requested, I had been waiting with two lunch boxes in hand. Sig-san arrived at around 10 am with a big smile on his face. I greeted him and asked him where we were going today.

"Good morning. Ah... It's still a secret. Anyway, I have Oscar with me so let's walk to the city gate. Once we're outside the city, we'll take Oscar for a little run."

"Oh? We're going out of town?"

"Yeah. It's okay. We're not going that far."

The rental house the three of them rented came with a stable so Oscar and the others began to live together with us. We began to walk side by side with Oscar. But really, no matter how many times I saw him, Oscar still looked as cool as ever!

Sometimes Oscar would gnaw on my hair, he was still as mischievous as ever as well... Sig-san would scold Oscar everytime he began to pull my hair but Oscar didn't look upset at all. Oscar must've been doing it because he wanted to get our attention.

It didn't take long for us to reach the city gate. The two of us got on Oscar's back and the horse began to run after Sig-san gave him his cue.

"We're going to reach our destination soon so can you please close your eyes for a bit?"

"Huh?"

"Just do it, okay?"

"....? Okay."

We had been running for about 30 minutes when Sig-san told me to close my eyes. He didn't tell me the reason why but I decided to trust him anyway and closed my eyes. It was a little scary not being able to see anything when you were sitting on top of a running horse. I grabbed on Sig-san's arms which were outstretched on both of my sides to hold onto Oscar's reins.

"Come on, Ren. I'm going to put you down, alright? Keep your eyes closed, okay? .... Okay, you can open your eyes now."

"...Whoa!"

We were walking at a slow pace before Oscar stopped somewhere. I felt Sig-san gently grab my underarm and help me down from Oscar. I kept my eyes closed until Sig-san gave me the signal to open it.

When I opened my eyes, my vision was instantly greeted with a field of sunflowers. All I could see was these beautiful yellow flowers no matter where I looked.
