Aftermath (Saekano: How To Raise A Boring Girlfriend)

Bonus Episode - Episode 20 Alternate Ending

"There is no greater disability in society than the inability to see a person as more." – Robert M. Hensel

In the living room of the Blessing Software office, the rest of the members except Michiru and Ayako were there. Eriri donned a red dress, white stockings and red high heels. Utaha wore a off-the-shoulder black dress, black pantyhose and white high heels. Tomoya, George and Masaru wore suits and ties.

"May I know why Hyodo-san and Furushima-san are not coming?" Utaha asked.

"Michiru and Ayako are attending their friend's funeral." Tomoya answered, "She died in a car crash."

"Megumi is already late for fifteen minutes." Eriri grumbled, "Can we just go to your house and see if she's there?"

"I'm sure she's coming over soon." Tomoya said, "Just wait for a while."

Just then, Masaru's phone buzzed. He saw that a message is sent to the Blessing Software chat group...and it was sent by Eddy.

"Eddy sent something, guys." Masaru said. Everyone crowded around him as he unlocked his phone. They all gasped in horror when a picture of Megumi tied up and gagged is sent by Eddy.

"My friend has kidnapped them." Eddy sent a message, "He wants Eriri and Utaha to come and talk terms with him before he releases Megumi."

"What the..." Tomoya was shocked beyond belief.

"Cool down, Tomoya." Masaru comforted him, "I'm sure there's a way we could save Megumi. We could call the police."

"Maybe you're right." Tomoya huffed. Just then, another message was sent by Eddy.

"He told me to not call the police, or not he'll kill Megumi. By the way, a car will come to your office and pick the two girls out."

"For fuck's sake!" Tomoya screamed.

"Tomoya, relax. Utaha Kasumigaoka and I will go there and talk to the kidnapper." Eriri said, "I'm sure we can convince him to let Megumi go."

"Don't you think this could be a trap devised by Eddy?" Masaru asked, "Look at it. He told us not to call the police, and he sent us the photo of Megumi in distress. Plus, definitely you girls are going to report the kidnapper, so are you sure he won't run away?"

"Everything's going to be fine, Masaru-san." Utaha replied, "I'm sure Eddy's running away from us, so he won't be the one kidnapping us. Besides, we two girls can definitely outnumber the one kidnapper."

"Be safe there, Eriri." George kissed Eriri's cheeks, "I want you back safe and sound. You understand?"

"Alright." She kissed George's cheeks. Utaha and Eriri then left the office.

"I don't feel that they're safe." Masaru said, "You still had the tracking device in Utaha's phone, right?"

"Yeah." Tomoya replied.

"Okay," Masaru looked down from the window, where he saw Utaha and Eriri enter a limousine, "I'm calling Liam for backup."

"I thought Eddy said no police call must be made." George said.

"Like I trust that stupid asshole." Masaru fished his phone out and called Liam.
