Life After Hope's Peak

Chapter 33 - Hina Moving Out

*Makoto's pov*

All of us stared at Hina not knowing what to say.

"I'm sorry it had to come out this way but I am moving out" she reiterated.

"Where to?" Asked Kyoko.

"I'm going to move in with my boyfriend, Emir" She said as she looked down.

"When were you going to tell us about him?" Byakuya asked her.

"Soon I guess, but I was still hesitatint about going, however now I see that you all need the space that has made my mind up for me" she explained.

"Could we meet him before you leave us?" I asked her.

"Yeah probably, why?" She asked.

"So we can see if he is a genuine guy, and I would feel happier knowing who you are going to be with" I told her.

"You sound like a paranoid parent" Byakuya told me.

"Yeah..." I sighed.

She just smiled and nodded.

"I-Is this my fault?" Toko asked.

"Why would it be?" Kyoko asked.

"No Toko this has nothing to do with you" Asahina reassured her, "I've decided to do this to help with space, none of you personally provoked me to leave"

We all fell back into that akward silence until Kyoko said "Promise us if anything happens or he hurts you in anyway you will come back, there will always be room for you here"

She smiled at her and nodded as tears formed in her eyes, slowly she got up and went over Kyoko and hugged her.

"Thank you" she said to her.

Roma was still asleep and completely unaware.

Hina then came around all of us and gave us a hug, she went to Toko last. Toko shrank back from her but she still grabbed her and hugged her tightly.

"W-what are you doing?" Toko asked her, she sounded scared.

"Look I'm completely passed what happened between me and you/ Sho previously and I just want you to know that" Asahina explained as she finished hugging her.

Toko seemed to hate physical contact with most people, well actually it was mainly me and Asahina who she didn't like to touch her. She adored Byakuya and the kids, somehow she and Kyoko seemed to form a strong bond and trust that they shared. Still I liked Toko, and I only wished she trusted me more so we could help her come out of this mental wreck.

Nothing much happened throughout the rest of the day, we just went to work and that was about it. Toko and Kyoko stayed home with the kids, doing work and other household chores.

A few days passed until the weekend finally came and Asahina had invited Emir round so we could all meet him. I was kind of nervous about meeting him but normally Hina had a good choice of character when it came to people so he should be okay.

Kyoko and Toko cooked us  dinner as now Kyoko had decided to teach Toko how to cook. We had Cottage Pie with carrots, Toko apparently made it mostly by herself which was impressive.

Emir was a nice guy he had bright dark green eyes with dark brown hair, simular to Asahina's but slightly darker. He also seemed very simular in personally to Hina, and the kids also seemed to take a liking to him. Well Lydia did, Roma didn't have an opinion and Avery hid with Byakuya and Toko. Avery was now getting to become more and more like Toko with just how he acted. Emir was actually really good with all the kids even Avery which wasn't easy.
