A week had passed since Touka returned to her original position and during this week, she was still in her original position, wearing the same uniform and getting shabby. What should I do to him, make me dizzy, a very unpleasant sight to look at. Hikari approached me,
“She's still there...” Hikari.
“Ga know ah, a lot of work, why take care of that person.” Reply to me while reading some files in front of me.
Hikari approached the window and she looked down, Hikari said it seemed like she was on the phone, her face looked panicked and she finally went in a hurry. Hikari told people to follow her, I already reminded Hikari, it's best not to take care of Touka, let her want what it's none of our business. But I myself do not understand Hikari's intentions, he seemed to ignore my words,
“Please, later you will also understand Ma kun...” Reply to her while sitting next to me.
“As far as you are Hichan.” Reply me.
What else I have to understand, I don't understand. Hikari asked me to remember how I met Touka in her previous life. I didn't understand Hikari's intentions, but as soon as she told me to automatically recall her thoughts, indeed, I met Touka in the park, I came home from college and there was no train, no train, no, I was forced to go to the park and plan to sleep there because I did not have a penny. All I have is an onigiri that I bought at lunch on campus and haven't had time to eat. When I wanted to sit in a chair, it turned out that there was already someone sleeping in that chair, I passed it, but then I heard a woman's moans and stomachs that rang, I passed it,
“Mama...lapar, I'm hungry...I want to go home....” A woman's voice whimpering.
Hearing that, obviously I couldn't bear to, I went back and put my onigiri by his side, then I left. The rain began to fall, inevitably I ran, I saw a pendopo and I immediately sat there, my stomach hungry, cold, my body wet, really an unfortunate day for me. I leaned in to listen to the sound of rain with my stomach constantly ringing, arriving, and,
“Anoo....mau half onii chan ?” Ask a woman who is standing in front of me.
I turned my head and saw Touka bediri in front of me holding the onigiri I gave her on the chair, I saw a very shabby Touka, a body wrapped in a newspaper, he said, even his body smelled a little unpleasant. But he offered the onigiri with a smile and was a little pushy. After he gave it to me, he sat down across from me and saw me eating half the onigiri.
“Thank you yes..now I am full onii chan.” Say it while smiling.
After that, every time I passed the park, I always saw Touka there, looking for trash cans, sometimes he was bullied by a striped man and ran away. Day after day I kept seeing in the park it continued, until one day, the conditions were raining big and causing strong winds, I saw the pendopo where the usual Touka shelter was destroyed, finally he just stood upright under the big tree while clutching his cold self. Because I couldn't bear it, I approached her and took her back to my house. Once at home, I just realized that Touka had been wearing her school uniform all this time. Because I was always in the newspaper, I never noticed. And I started my life with Touka until we got married the following year when Touka was 18.

Yes, that's what happened back in my life, but what does Hikari mean is to awaken this memory of mine. I looked towards the window, Touka was not in the corner where she was normally there. Suddenly Hikari received a phone call, apparently from the men who asked please follow Touka.
“Come Ma kun..we were in the hospital yesterday.” Hikari said while standing up.
“Hah.mau what ?” Ask me.
“Already come...” Reply Hikari.
Long story short, I went with Hikari to the hospital where her mother Touka was treated. As soon as I got out of the car, Hikari immediately pulled my hand inside and slightly ran to the room where Mama Touka was in. When I got to the front of the room, I was a little surprised, because many nurses were pulling tools that sustain the life of Mama Touka and I saw Touka could only cry while hugging her mama's hand. Hikari looked at me, like she wanted me to do something. To be honest, Touka's current condition, was the same when her mama died and before her attitude turned strange to me. Hikari patted my waist, I turned to her. Hikari just smiled and nodded, I really don't understand Hikari's attitude, but one thing is certain, I want to help Touka. I stepped foot into the room and I stood beside Touka while looking at her living mother. Touka turned her head and was shocked to see me standing next to her. He immediately prostrated himself at my feet.
“Onii chan..please mama...you can do anything to me, but please save mama...”.
When I saw Touka like this, I remembered, right, before her mother died at that time, she had come home in a panic and I was sick at that time, he begged me to give him some money otherwise his mother's support device would be unplugged, I didn't care about it and instead yelled at him because I myself was also dizzy. Touka cried and ran out of the house, she only returned two days later and a few days after her mama died. Since then his attitude towards me changed completely, he only loved children. Although the time of occurrence changed, but this is the same thing, the tool was removed because no one paid for it.
“Wait here, don't go where...” My word.
I asked Hikari to accompany Touka, while I went to the hospital. After I met the head of the hospital, everything was clear, it turned out that the one who had been paying for the care of his mother Touka was Isami a few weeks ago died. Because there was no guarantor, the hospital called Touka, now I understand why she continues to be on the side of my office building and why she insists on asking for a job from me, everything is for this. Again I barely saw what was really going on around me, I also came to understand Hikari's intention of telling me to act.
“Okay, then how much should be paid so that the tool is installed ?” Ask the hospital chief.
After he mentioned the amount, I took my checkbook and wrote down the amount he requested. After giving him a check, I asked him to quickly reassemble the device. The head of the hospital immediately came out of his room, leaving me inside. My tears are dripping, my head is down, I'm sorry Touka, if only I had understood and not turned away from what happened, maybe we would have been happy until the end, but I took revenge on you without knowing what. I was sorry I did nothing, but now another, now I can act, let the past end, let my revenge be lost. Now I'm free and I have to thank Hikari, because she reminded me. I laughed to myself, maybe without Hikari beside me, I would return to being a useless human like I used to be, pitifully indeed, from now on I have to change. Do not look at the coin from one side but from two sides, jisan once taught me and now I just understand the meaning. Don't just look at myself, look at the person who bullied you and who now comes to my mind is Ayame.

I got out of the hospital headroom and went back to my room. Some nurses were putting the tool back on, I saw Touka crying roaring while hugging Hikari. I stepped walking out of the room to go downstairs, I typed a message to Hikari that I was waiting downstairs. Blessed Touka, I wish you all the best, we will never meet again, I smiled as I continued walking towards the elevator to get down. After I got to the bottom, I got out and got in my car, I lit a cigarette and opened the roof. My heart is now completely relieved, like my revenge has been avenged, even better. I looked up at the roof of my car which was open, the sunlight came in, I closed my eyes enjoying the warm sunlight hitting my face with a smile. Suddenly Hikari asked me to leave first, later he would ride the other car and he had called him, because he wanted to go straight home. I told him to be careful. Then I asked the driver of my car to walk back to the office.
Long story short, as soon as the office, I had to go back to the ginza with Manabu san, the cause of which was because the mall work was stopped temporarily, because the workers who were digging to make the basement found something underground and asked us to look at it. After arriving, I went straight inside with Manabu san, when I got to the place where the workers meant, they immediately took me and Manabu san down, we both got down.
What I saw before my eyes gave me goosebumps, a lot of human skeletons buried there, hundreds of people, no, maybe a thousand people. The workers, who are people around the area, said that this area was used from the core house of the Amagaoka clan, so maybe the age of these bones could be old.
“Manabu san, wasn't this location used to be a park and parking lot before we bought ?” Ask Manabu.
“Iya right bocchan, but as good as we verify said the worker also.” Manabu.
“Tomorrow please go to the land office and ask again the history of this land, say also we find many bones here, for a while we postpone the construction before all these bones evacuation.” Reply me.
“Good bocchan, I am there now, take a taxi only.” Manabu.
Then without delay, Manabu immediately went to the land office. I spoke to some workers and found out the story behind this bone, those who are old tell me that in the old days, the old, this place is indeed a temple and usually performed rituals at the time of the full moon, they do not know what the sect and what the ritual is for, because they also only heard the story from their grandfather who also heard it from his grandfather. Obviously something like this cannot be believed, because it is just a word of mouth story, grandfather to grandson. I guess an hour or so, I was with the workers, until my phone rang and Manabu called me. According to the land office, it used to be Amagaoka family-owned land, but since they disappeared, the government took over the land until we bought it through the back lane. Manabu San also said that the government will evacuate the bone and investigate it. After the phone closed, I began to be intrigued to investigate the Amagaoka clan, maybe I could find out who Ayame and Shizuka really were. When Manabu san returns, he,
“Manabu san, can not ask for the help of private detectives or who can investigate the Amagaoka clan, it seems we have to investigate the whole thing.” My word.
“Hmm..try asking our people, who knows if anyone can investigate her.” Manabu san.
“Alright, please yes... I can't just keep quiet looking at this.” Reply me.
“Good bocchan, but may be a little bit long yes.” Manabu.
“Yes I understand, it does not matter with how long his investigation..” Reply me.

Since it was late afternoon, I drove Manabu san to the office and I returned home. As soon as I got home, I saw Hikari's shoes on the doorstep and there was another, definitely female, shoe.
“I'm home..” My scream.
Suddenly I heard a man running and fell down, then ran again. Haaah turned out to be the one who greeted me was Touka who was wearing a maid uniform that was definitely the result of Hikari's prank,
“Welcome master...” Say it with a cheerful face.
What else is this, do not know what cape people, I've seen the bones under the construction of mall woi. Just make dizzy, really make dizzy. Why is Touka here. What else happened, I thought. I just asked him, right away,
“What are you doing here ?” Ask me.
“From now on I work here master..” Said Touka cheerfully.
“Don't call me master..” My scream.
Hikari came out of the living room and she laughed out loud,
"Can you explain what's going on here, Hichan ?" Ask me confused.
According to Hikari, Touka had no place to live because she had been evicted from the Kirishima family home for a long time, while since her mother was sick, she was also evicted from her apartment for not paying rent. That's why he never came home and didn't go to school again.
“Now he can go to school again and come back here. But here he works, it's okay ?” Ask Hikari.
“Yare yare." I shook my head.
Whether happy or sad, I live in a house with my wife who betrayed me in my previous life, even though now I do not have a grudge against her, also being with my wife in the official present life and always beside me. I don't know where my life is going and I hate being called a master, that's why in my last life I never went to the maid cafe. Did my harem story begin ? no kidding.
