Chapter 1: Act 6: Scene 1


 * After that, Kokutan-douji lived at the tailor shop for a while.
 * The two didn't decide they were really parent and child based solely on the mermaid's revelation. But for the time being, maybe they'd realize it if they spent time together...... something like that.
 * It was what both Kayo and Kokutan-douji wanted. Sharing the same intentions, no one was going to stop the two of them from doing it.
 * Oyuka: "That's kind of strange, y'know......"
 * Oyuka, having come by the tailor shop, sighed in front of Kokutan-douji, also there.
 * Kayo was gone at the time, out to receive payment for the kimono she finished from the liquor store.
 * Kokutan: "Long time no see, Oyuka-san."
 * Kokutan-douji greeted Oyuka.
 * Oyuka: "Has it? Since the time I got married and left Momogengou...... it's been ten years now?It's too late now, but I'm sorry, I treated you coldly. I'd never seen someone with blond hair at the village...... since I came here, I learned that sort of thing isn't completely abnormal."
 * Kokutan: "It seems a lot of people descend from foreigners here in Enbizaka."
 * Oyuka: "Yes. You definitely look like you descend from foreigners too, don't you?..... Well, I wouldn't know, since you were born from an ebony tree."
 * Kokutan: "......"
 * Oyuka took off her shoes and sat down with Kokutan-douji.
 * Oyuka: "There was one thing I wanted to say, about the story of you possibly being Kayo-san's sonI think that's impossible."
 * Kokutan: "How come?"
 * Oyuka: "Kayo-san's son died in a fire four years ago and the child was still a baby at the time. You had been born and grew up long ago, not four years ago."
 * Kokutan: "That's true...... Four years ago...... I believe I was ten?"
 * Oyuka: "That's why you can't be a reincarnation of Ren. I think the "mermaid revelation" itself is fake to begin with. You sure you didn't see a hallucination at sea?"
 * Kokutan: "......"
 * Oyuka: "Haaa......"
 * Oyuka made another huge sigh.
 * Oyuka: "Still, I'm not going to oppose you doing this and living with Kayo-san in itself."
 * Kokutan: "?"
 * Oyuka: "Kayo-san...... forgive me, seems to have forgotten her husband and son had died in the fire. She doesn't want to admit it somewhere in her mind or something like that......"
 * Kokutan: "Really...... I thought she didn't really fit coherently with respect to those around her."
 * Oyuka: "It's true it's a lie, but if you would take the role of Kayo-san's son, I'd be grateful...... if it'll put Kayo-san's mind at east just a little, okay?"
 * Saying that, Oyuka made a kind smile.
 * Kokutan: "Oyuka-san......"
 * Oyuka: "However! One piece of advice! You two may think you're parent and child to one another but the fact of the matter is that you're a man and woman at that age living under the same roofdon't pull anything perverted without her consent!!"
 * Kokutan: "What!? I wasn't going to......"
 * Oyuka: "...... Well, all right since you look so serious about it. But just in case, I'll definitely be coming by often to see how things are going!" (I think)
 * Oyuka said that and left the tailor shop.
