Chapter 146 Let's stay overnight at Shirasaki's house.
Haruka Shirasaki: "Well then, Ryou-kun and Hayasaka-san, you can stay at my place tonight. Hana seems to really like you two."
Uchiha Ryo had no reason to refuse and readily agreed.
Elementary school sports meets usually end early, and Shirasaki Hana and the others changed their clothes and arrived at the school gate.
Little Flower: "Brother Ling, I want... the cake you made!"
Uchiha Ryo leaned down. "How about fruit pie for dessert tonight? I'll make it for you."
Little Flower's eyes sparkled. "I have apples at home, so let's have apple pie!"
Himesaka Noa: "Hana has apple pie at home! That's great, Noa wants some too."
Hinata Hoshino: "Then let's stay at Hana's house tonight!"
Haruka Shirasaki smiled at the two children and said, "Since Noa and Hinata both want to come, they can stay at my place tonight."
Emily Himesaka was a little worried. "It will be very troublesome. Mrs. Shirasaki usually has to work, and she finally gets a break and then has to take care of these children."
Haruka Shirasaki turned to look at Hana Shirasaki, who was clinging to Ryo Uchiha. "It's alright. Besides, Ryo-kun and Hayasaka-san will keep an eye on them for me."
Goto Nuri: "I want to go too! I want to go too!"
Michiyo Goto ruffled Eriri's hair. "Eriri, you can't be too willful, or you'll cause trouble for your older sisters."
Goto Jiri pouted, "What...then let my sister come with me!"
Goto Ichiri: "???"
Haruka Shirasaki walked over and looked at Michiyo Goto. "Mrs. Goto, you're alright. Let the children come to my place today. I'm sure there won't be any problems with three high school students watching over them."
Three high school students looking after four kids? Goto Michiyo thinks it should be two high school students looking after five...
Little Lonely has never lived anywhere other than a relative's house since he was a child. This time, going to live outside might be a kind of experience for him.
Naoki Goto: "Oh, right, Ichiri has an outdoor performance tomorrow. Why don't you and your classmates go stay at Hana's house for a day?"
Little Lonely looked at everyone in fear, "How...how could this be..."
Haruka Shirasaki then looked at Miyako Hoshino in the corner.
"Well then, Miss Miyako..."
Hoshino Miyako quickly shook her head. "Oh, I... I suddenly remembered that I still have a project to work on at school. Hmm, I have to go back and catch up."
So that's another trick!
Little Lonely suddenly mustered up his courage.
"Well, I also remember that I haven't done my homework yet, and I also have to practice guitar every day. It must be very noisy at your house."
Uchiha Ryo: "I'm in the same class as you, so I can tutor you on your studies. Although you're very good at guitar, it's not good to be at the bottom of the class in terms of grades."
Goto Michiyo's eyes lit up, and then she patted Uchiha Ryo on the shoulder.
"Please take care of my family within a mile!"
Uchiha Ryo: "Please rest assured, Aunt Goto, leave everything to me!"
Goto Ichiri had a bad feeling. Was Uchiha Ryo going to tutor her? Was he going to force her to study? No way! She already practiced guitar so hard every day, and then she had to go study too? That was hell...
...
"I'm back!" x4
Even though no one was home, the children still liked to call out as soon as they entered the house.
Hana, Noa, Hinata, and Niri quickly took off their shoes and ran into the living room. Uchiha Ryo, along with Hayasaka Ai and Goto Ichiri, followed leisurely behind.
Shirasaki Haruka: "Ryou-kun and the two young ladies, go and play with Hana and the others. I'll take care of dinner."
"It's alright, Aunt Shirasaki. If Hana wants to eat my cooking, then let me do it."
Haruka Shirasaki: "But Ryo-kun is, after all, a guest..."
At that moment, Shirasaki Hana ran out of the room. "Ryo-nii's cooking is delicious! Of course, Mom's is good too."
Uchiha Ryo smiled. "Then I'll take care of dinner. What would you all like to eat?"
Shirasaki Hana: "I want apple pie instead of dinner! Ling-nii's desserts are so delicious. I've been craving them ever since I had them last time... I really, really want them!"
Hayasaka Ai looked at Uchiha Ryo with suspicion. Was Ryo-kun's cooking really that good? It made people miss it so much... Could he have put something bad in it?
Uchiha Ryo glanced at Hayasaka Ai, "What kind of look is that? Don't underestimate me."
"And Xiaohua, apple pie is a dessert, shall we discuss dinner first? If you want dessert, we can talk about it after dinner."
Uchiha Ryo: "Hmm... then how about this, we'll have curry omelet rice tonight. Aunt Shirasaki, go back to your room and rest. You must be tired from work. Leave the childcare to Little Lonely."
Little Lonely: "Huh?!?!"
Shirasaki Haruka looked at Goto Ichiri, who was pointing at her with a surprised expression, and then at Hoshino Hinata and Goto Jiri, who were running around the room.
"Is everything alright?"
Uchiha Ryo nodded. "Don't worry, after all, Little Lonely has taken care of his little sister before. He's just playing with a child now, so there's nothing to worry about. Okay! I'll go to the kitchen now."
Hayasaka Ai: "I'll go help you out."
Hey, don't be so distrustful of yourself. But it's okay for Hayasaka Ai to come and help. After all, to be honest, her cooking skills are all copied. Having someone who really knows how to cook around can prevent accidents from happening.
So, Shirasaki Haruka returned to her room to rest, while Uchiha Ryo and Hayasaka Ai discussed in the kitchen whether they should make dinner more elaborate.
The four children in the living room had somehow surrounded Little Lonely.
Himesaka Noa: "Ichiri, Ichiri... Lonely. So, Brother Ling calls you Little Lonely? Then we'll call you Sister Lonely too."
Shirasaki Hana: "Lonely Sister, why does this name sound a bit sad?"
Hinata Hoshino: "Just like my older sister, she needs our help right now! Let's play together, lonely older sister!"
Goto Natsumi: "Let's play together, big sister!"
Helpless, Goto Ichiri could only use his guitar as a shield.
"Well, you guys play over there, I'll go practice my guitar by myself."
Himesaka Noa: "It's okay, why don't you play here, Lonely Sister? We'd like to hear you play the guitar too!"
Listening to a performance?! What am I supposed to play...? Goto Ichiri stared at the guitar in his hands, clearly deep in thought. Should he play heavy rock? Elementary school students would probably just find it noisy.
At this time, you should choose upbeat music! But what if Little Loneliness is best at playing those lonely and gloomy tunes?
Okay, I'll just play a band piece...it'll be good practice.
In the kitchen, Hayasaka Ai suddenly heard guitar music coming from the living room and nodded with a soft laugh. "Little Lonely has grown up. I'm so glad."
Uchiha Ryo: "Why are you acting like a doting mother?"
Hayasaka Ai: "Well... how should I put it? Seeing little Lonely like this always gives me a feeling of pity, or rather... maternal love."
