SCHOOL IN THE CITY IS DEAD
SCHOOL IN TOWN DEAD 17

The next day at school, Rin really feels very tired due to the effects of lack of rest and fighting with yokai. As the lesson began, he tried hard to stay focused, but after a few minutes he felt his eyes and head start to weigh. Keyaru feels that Rin looks very cute and cute while sleeping. Then, when the teacher calls Rin to answer her question, Rin awakens from her sleep in shock and a bit of embarrassment. Her face flushed red as she realized that she was asleep during the lesson.

"Sorry, sensei," he said in a slightly stammering voice.

The teacher simply nodded and continued the lesson without commenting on the incident. Keyaru smiled at Rin and gave her a slight touch on her shoulder to calm herself down.

After the lesson is over, Keyaru and Rin go to the cafeteria with Aika. They had lunch as usual while chatting adding to the fierce fight last night.

"Rin, from now on my father and I Inaba have become part of YHA. I did not expect that your father, Nakamura - that cool san accepted us" Aika said with a banga

"Yes Mr. Nakamura is good" said Keyaru

"Oh yes did you know last night we also met a cool yokai named Amata" said Aika

Rin, who was eating right away, heard the name Amata. "Uhuk-uhuk-uhuk" Rin gulped down his drinking water "A-Mata?!" rin asked, he wondered why the yokai had come again. He thought that Amata came with a certain intent.

"Yes, I thought he was going to do something bad to us but it turned out he didn't do anything. Amata and your father seem to be very familiar too" Aika ate her lunch

After hearing Aika's words, Rin was curious and wanted to know more about Amata. Then Keyaru asked Rin with a curious face, "How did your father get along with Amata? Have they been friends since?"

Rin smiled and replied, "No, I don't know about that Keyaru. I don't know more about who Amata really is, all I know is that he's just a powerful yokai. Maybe he approached my father out of fascination with the power he possessed."

Aika shook her head and said, "No, no. I'm sure there's another reason. Maybe Amata likes your father for his unbearable antics and charm."

Keyaru and Rin laughed at Aika's words. "That's impossible. They're both men, or maybe you like my dad, Aika?" rin asked with a laugh.

Aika smiled shyly and replied, "Of course. Who doesn't love a handsome guy like your dad?"

Keyaru and Rin laughed even louder, feeling funny with Aika's statement. They feel happy to be able to chat casually and funny after getting involved in a fierce fight with yokai. After lunch was over, they parted ways and went to their respective classes with a smile on their faces.

After the lesson was over, Keyaru met Rin who was then stopping by the library. He sees Rin reading a book with a serious, focused face. Keyaru felt his heart pounding as he looked at Rin with a loving gaze.

"Rin, I have something for you" he said, giving her a flower he was holding.

Rin was surprised and smiled widely. "This flower is very beautiful Keyaru"

Keyaru took Rin's hand and said gently, "I often take care of the plants in the school garden. And this is the flower I picked up from there just now. Naoki and Ryo said you like flowers, they said a few days ago you intended to pick them but didn't because you were afraid to get angry. And now that I've plucked it for you, I hope you'll be happy to take it."

Rin was amazed by Keyaru's words. He felt pleased and blushed in embarrassment as Keyaru watched him with a gentle look. However, Rin is still unaware of Keyaru's feelings towards her.

"Ah yes I am very happy with this flower, Keyaru. Thank you very much!" he said with a smile.

Keyaru smiled and embraced Rin tightly. She hoped Rin could feel how great her feelings towards him were. However, Rin is still unaware of the meaning of Keyaru's embrace. After that, the two of them went home together.

And that night, Rin keeps thinking about Keyaru and the flowers he gave her. He felt there was something different with Keyaru today, but he didn't know exactly what it was. Rin was confused and could not understand her own feelings.

"Hwa" Rin is shocked to see Amata barging into Rin's room through her window, her room forgetting to close "What are you doing in my room?!" Rin is further upset to see the sassy Amata laying herself on Rin's bed casually as if in her own room.

He was silent for a moment, Rin was astonished to feel that Amata's gaze was a little strange. It seems that he was not aware that Amata was looking at Rin with a longing gaze after a long time of observing Rin's life. Without hesitation, Amata approached Rin but Rin thought that Amata had bad intentions so he immediately stepped back and pulled his sword pointed at Amata.

"You're so stiff" said Amata who still smiled at him and climbed his window "Rest Rin, you worked hard yesterday" Amata immediately jumped out, he flapped his wings and flew away from Rin's sight.

Rin, still did not understand what had just happened. "Today everyone was so weird, Keyaru and Amata confused me" Rin laid her body on the bed.

That night Nakamura himself also went home and immediately took a shower, after which he returned busy dealing with the documents of his investigation. In the midst of her busy life, Rina comes to her room to deliver her dinner. Lina, put her food on a different table from the one where she works.

As Rin was about to get out of his room Nakamura stopped him. "Rina, wait"

Rina instantly stopped her footsteps and looked towards Nakamura "Yes?"

"Come" Nakamura looked at Rina with a certain intent

Rina, walked up to her husband curiously "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Nakamura grabbed Rina's hand and pulled her a little hard towards him, the other hand held onto Lina's waist gently and sat her on her lap. This time Nakamura and Rina's positions faced each other, and Nakamura looked into Rina's eyes with an affectionate look.

"I'm sorry, Rina," Nakamura said softly. "I know I'm always busy with my work as a supernatural detective and rarely have time for you. But today, I want to give you a special time."

Rina was surprised by Nakamura's actions, but she was moved by her husband's attention. He felt the vibrations of Nakamura's feelings through his loving eyes. "Nakamura-san." said Rina softly, while looking at her husband's face lovingly.

Nakamura swept her fingers gently across Lina's face, feeling the softness of her skin and the gentle smile on her lips. He kissed Rina softly on the forehead and said, "I love you, Rina. From now on I will always try to give you the time and attention you need."

Lina smiled and held her hand around Nakamura's neck, she felt moved and happy for having a husband who loved her so much. They looked at each other with affectionate gazes, enjoying a special romantic moment together.

Suddenly Rin entered his father's room without permission. He who knew that his father and mother were making out also closed the door again. However, after Rin closed the door, she felt surprised and awkward because she accidentally saw her parents making out. Rin felt bad and didn't know what to do. He tried to get out of the room as quickly as possible, but unfortunately, his steps were stopped by Nakamura's voice calling out his name.

"Rin, come in" Nakamura said gently.

Rin felt nervous and awkward as she walked into her father's room. She was embarrassed and did not know what to say. However, Nakamura understood his son's feelings and tried to lessen his awkwardness.

"What can I do for you, Rin?" asked Nakamura with a smile.

"I'm sorry, Mom and Dad. I didn't mean to bother you. I just want to ask permission to go to Shibuya tomorrow for a vacation" Rin replied in a soft voice.

Nakamura and Rina smiled and felt moved by their daughter's polite and considerate attitude. They embrace Rin and say that it's okay.

"Mom and Dad were just joking. No need to feel embarrassed or awkward. You can take a vacation to Shibuya tomorrow" said Rina softly.

Rin was relieved and felt calmer after hearing the words from her Father and Mother. He smiled and came back happy because his family always supported and loved him. "Thank you, Mom, Dad"

"Come here Rin" said Rina extending her hand to invite Rin to join her. Then Rin grabs her mother's hand and sits between Rina and Nakamura, after which the three of them embrace.
