Later that night, Shujinkou and his grandmother, Hisa, were in the middle of a game of Go. After spending the last 20 minutes contemplating what move he needed to make next, the answer finally came to him.

"I have nothing," Shujinkou conceded.

Shujinkou and Hisa cleared the Go Board and started to return their respective stones back in their cups. It wasn't a close game, but Shujinkou was used to being crushed by his grandmother. As far he was concerned, he was just happy that she didn't mind playing an inferior player.

After sealing the stone cup with its top, an uncomfortable feeling came over Shujinkou as he watched an "interesting" smile form on Hisa's face.

"So... a literature club," Hisa said.

"Yeah..." Shujinkou knew that this exact moment was coming. He was just surprised that she didn't speak up earlier.

"I didn't expect you to be joining any clubs, let alone a literature club," Hisa giggled. "You wouldn't have joined it because the club has 4 beautiful women, did you?"

"Granny Hisa..." Shujinkou cheeks turned rosy read from that one comment.

This exact situation was the reason he has yet to tell his own mother that the rest of the club was of the opposite gender.

"Just messing with you, Shujinkou," Hisa chuckled. "But you have to acknowledge the fact that that's what it looks like from an outsider's perspective."

Shujinkou couldn't argue with his grandmother there. If anyone in the school actually cared what he was doing then the other members of the club would appear to be the prime reason he joined.

He then watched his grandmother crawl to his side of the board and was pulled into another loving embrace.

"But you know, as long as you're having fun, that's what important," Hisa said.

"I am," Shujinkou grinned.

"Good," Hisa smiled. "So what fun things happened since you joined?"

"Well..." Shujinkou started to explain to his grandmother what has happened since he joined the club. Going through a haunted house with Yuri, spending an afternoon drawing with Natsuki, enjoying a parfait with Monika, spending an evening reminiscing with Sayori; each tale causing her interest in the subject to grow more and more.

Though of course there were a few moments he couldn't elaborate on, but other than those, he was able to catch his grandmother up on everything he's done since his joining.

Once he was done, the elderly woman released him from her grip and jumped on her feet.

"Welp, I gotta go and take care of some business," Hisa said.

"What kind of business?" Shujinkou asked.

"Hisa-buisness," she smiled.

"Oh..." her grandson mumbled.

That was his grandmother's way of answering his questions without really answering them and just like every other time, it peaked his curious nature. Sometimes he wonders if she was purposely teasing him.

Meanwhile, in one of the outdoor spring baths, Sayori emerged from the water and stretched her relaxed arms in front of the other club members.

"I still can't believe it..." Natsuki mumbled.

"Can't believe what? That a relative of Shujinkou owns one of the most well-known spa resorts or that she's Shujinkou's grandmother?" Monika asked.

"Both!" Natsuki replied.

Monika couldn't blame Natsuki for still thinking about the revelations that occurred earlier that day. It was quite the surprise to figure out that such a youthful woman was Shujinkou' grandmother... and that she owned the spa resort.
