Reiko

I silently ate my breakfast while thinking about yesterday evening. I got to play soccer with Haruto. He was very gentle, but not holding down enough to make me feel useless. He made me feel challenged yet happy. Though we didn't talk much, I had a really good time...until Tajima arrived, ugh! He kept looking at me funny on the way, so I had to shout at him.

"Reiko, stop day-dreaming and eat your breakfast quickly!" Kaa-san scolded me.

I didn't know I was lost in thoughts. Baa-san was reading a newspaper in front of me. She raised her eyebrows and looked at me. I gulped and quickly finished my breakfast like a caveman. I didn't want her to start her training yet.  Meanwhile, Nee-san had already finished hers and was wiping her mouth with a tissue elegantly.

"Ladies? We're gonna be late for school." Tajima came into the kitchen and reminded us, then left. Nee-san swiftly picked up her bag and got out of her seat. I almost choked.

"W-wait! Nee-san!"

"No, I won't~"

"Ugeeh!"

I swallowed the remaining food and drank water quickly. Then, I hurriedly grabbed my bag and dashed outside.

"Hora, Reiko! That kid..."

I heard Kaa-san scolding me from behind. I couldn't care less. I was already late. On my way out, I almost crashed into Tou-san, as he was coming downstairs to go to work.

"Take it easy, Reiko!"

"S-sorry, Tou-san!"

I didn't stop my track and hurriedly jumped into the car before Tajima drove off. It was a close call. Nee-san, on the other hand, presses her stomach from laughing hysterically.

"Uuu..."

Noriko gently tied her husband's tie before he went to work. Kashiba smiled and stood still for his wife.

"Okay, it's ready," Noriko exhaled and rubbed her husband's shoulder with satisfaction.

"Noriko..."

"Hmm?"

"We made that decision."

"Huh?"

Kishiba gently stacked her strands of hair behind her ear.

"Don't dwell on your thoughts about how you might've been manipulated in resurrecting Reiko..."

"Dear..." Tears swelled in Noriko's eyes. Kishiba gently held her face with both of his hands.

"I mean it. We did this because we want to do this. You, me, Katasuki, and Yuudachi. We all discussed as a family, remember?"

Noriko started to cry and held her husband's hands.

"But what would you do if I'd told you about the risks it takes?"

"It wouldn't change a thing, dear."

"Why?"

"Because I trust you with all my heart...I know how talented and smart my beautiful witch is."
