"Oh, that's Mama's picture!"
"..."
That sentence is piercing trough his heart and deal critical damage to him, it was not something that can be negated by the Heavenly Body modification or anything
"I heard Mama have a boyfriend when she is in high school, although I didn't know what boyfriend is, it must be someone that very close to her, right?" Yui glances at the clock and then she speaks while his hand starts to picking up the scattered toy and tidying the room "But he eventually leaves her and makes Mama sad, he must be the bad uncle that you mentioned previously, right?"
".... maybe... you're right, he must be a very bad person" it was the first time Arthur think how nice it was if Yui just stop to talk
"He must be! That's why Yui pray in Yui's birthday, I hope the bad uncle that makes Mama sad will get lost in the forest forever!"
'Wait...' Arthur has a strange premonition
"But Mama stroke Yui's hair and said if Yui mustn't pray like that" Yui is pouting when she remembers how she is being reprimanded because of her pray "That's why Yui change the pray, Yui hope that bad uncle while getting lost in the forest for a year and being chase by dog wherever he goes"
'It was just a coincidence, right? It must be'
"But there is something that Yui didn't understand..." Yui put the last toys on its place and from her expression, it was clearly seen if she is thinking something that very hard for her
"Oh, what makes the adorable and smart Yui confuse?" Arthur try to put a smile on his face
"Several weeks ago Mama brings me to someplace and then Yui found out if in that place the bad uncle is being sealed inside the ground"
'Is he talking about the graveyard? I'm glad she didn't say I was being planted there'
"Yui sees if Mama is praying and Yui think Mama pray in that place to make the bad uncle can't coming out of the sealed place, but why is Mama look very sad after that?"
"She is...sad?"
"Yes, Mama is very sad at that time. In the end, Yui is right if the bad uncle always makes Mama sad although he is being sealed he still can make Mama sad"
"And what makes you confused?"
"Yui is confused because Yui didn't know if Mama is sad because she can't punish the bad uncle with her own hand or she sad because of other reasons that Yui didn't know?"
"Maybe... because she can't beat the bad uncle with her own hand" Arthur answer with a bitter smile on his face
When they're chatting Arthur heard the door is being open from the outside and Yui is already run to the front door
"Welcome home! Mama!"
Arthur heard the familiar voice from someone who is talking with Yui, but he is rooted in his place.
"There is someone else in the home?"
"Yes, it was... Althur... awthur... what it was again..."
"Arthur..?"
"Yes! That one! Why his name is so hard..."
There is some low conversation happening in the front door and then Arthur hears a footsteps sound is coming closer.
"Thank you for taking care of Yui for me" Misaki feel very worried because there is a stranger inside her house, if she knows Yui will bring a stranger to the house she will bring Yui to her shop instead of leaving her in the house
Arthur nod with a weak smile, honestly he wants to say something but there is no sound coming out of his mouth.
"Have we ever met before?" Misaki asks carefully and her face is full of uncertainty
"Maybe... no" Arthur replied with a hoarse voice
"I- I see... please wait for a moment, I will make a tea" Misaki leaving the room and head to the kitchen
"Go, follow your mom, she might need your help"
Yui nodded and then followed Misaki to the kitchen
"System, I know you will not letting me stay in this world for too long, so tell me how much time I currently have?" Arthur has a feeling if his time is not much and if he didn't ask the system he sure it wouldn't tell him
^The trial time for an Unknown card will end in two minutes^
"As I tough... system I want..."
....
When Misaki in the kitchen and boiling the water she heard a sound of the piano from the living room, and it was the tune that she have heard before. Her hand is shaking and the glass that she holds is slipping out of her hand and fall into the sink.
"Are you fine Mama?" Yui who is coming to the kitchen after Arthur tell her to follow her mother is asking worriedly
As if she didn't hear it Misaki walk to the living room and the sound of piano become clearer, although she sure she didn't have piano in the home she can know difference between the sound from the real piano or from recording but when she arrives at the living room the sound is stopped and there is nothing she can hear from there
Misaki looks all over the living room to search for Arthur and she even goes to the outside to see if he leave the house but she can't find him at all.
Feeling dejected and at lost she walks back to the living room and found out if Yui is holding two recorders, one of the recorder have a paper sticker on it with the text 'for Yui from the bad uncle' and another one is not have anything attach to it.
'I'm sorry I can't say goodbye to you properly, Yui'
Arthur's voice is heard when Yui plays the recorder "Why?"
'I must say it was a very fun day, thank you for accompanying me today, but sorry because I lied to you. I was the bad uncle that you referred to, of course, I hope you will stop calling me uncle because I'm not that old'
"You're bad... uncle" Yui clench the recorder with both of her little hands
'If you didn't like to play with the other kids then how about playing the piano that I leave in your living room? You must be heard how beautiful the melody that I played, right?'
"That's very horrible... sound"
'I was goos pianist when I'm in high school but maybe I play too much game on my computer and I can't play the piano properly, that's why you mustn't spend too much time on the computer'
"As Yui said previously... Yui will play in a ŀȧptop, Yui didn't have a computer, Yui will play until it breaks"
'Don't invite any stranger to home because I was worried you will invite very bad people'
"You're the worst person in the world..."
'Yui is a very adorable little girl and because of that, I forget if I can't be here forever... I hope we can meet again, and at that time I want to see Yui become smarter and more adorable than the current Yui. See you again, Yui'
The recorder is stopped and Arthur's voice is not heard again, but Yui still holds the recorder.
"Mama... the bad uncle is coming out of the sealed, right?" Yui asking her mother but her eyes still look at the recorder
"Perhaps..." Misaki understand what is Yui talking about but she didn't know how to answer it
"Then... we didn't need to pray to the sealed place again, right? We just need to wait for him to come back right?"
"Yes... he will come back" if it was really the person that she knows then although she didn't understand how it can happen she is sure he will explain it to her in the other recorder "Are you want to meet him again?"
"Yes... At that time Yui will seal him again so he will not be running away like today" Yui nods her head and walk away to her room leaving Misaki alone in the living room
Misaki look at Yui with a complicated look, this is the first time for her to see Yui so close with someone that she just know less than one day, usually, she didn't like to communicate with other people and make someone who didn't know her think she is a muted person but the truth is she just didn't like strangers.
Misaki play the recorder that Yui left because it didn't have anything on it
'I'm sorry... Misaki'
When she heard Arthur's sound and when she heard how he called out her name Misaki nearly make the recorder slipped out of her hand, it was a sound from a person who is very familiar to her.
'I know just saying sorry isn't enough but what I can do except saying that?'
"You can say anything else, silly" the corner of her eyes is moistened by the clear water that coming out of her eyes
'I didn't know how to explain it but I just want you to know if... I miss you'
A drop of water sliding down on her cheek into the floor
'That's something that I always wanted to say to you from the last time we meet, in the end, I can say it now, at least even though I didn't say it in front of you, but I know you still heard it properly'
'Under the piano, there is two briefcase, I remember it clearly that your dream is to open a bookstore when you grow up later, now you're a mȧturė lady so in the black briefcase there is some money with a certificate for land near the police station, you can make your dream come true now'
'And for the white briefcase it was for Yui, there are some money and a piece of dress for her. I hope she can graduate from the university, take it as the form of self-satisfaction from someone who can't attend the college'
'Because my time is not much I can't prepare good things for both of you, so treat the piano as my memento for you, it's not like I can take it with me. Stay healthy, always smile, and I hope you wouldn't forget about me. Goodbye... Misaki'
"Stupid... dummy... silly... coward..."
No matter what she says... that figure never appears again since then
....
Arthur opens his eyes and found out he is back to the gazebo where he has his breakfast before active the unknown card. looking at the moon his mind in turmoil, this is his world now, he can't forget about his past relationship although he lives in this world now it's because he didn't want to.
It didn't mean he wants to go back to that world desperately but because he wants to make it as memories for himself, to make him never forget about his origin, his parents especially.
"At least I keep my promise to make a bookstore for her... this trip is not waste at all"
With the contract from the system he is sure if the owner of the restaurant will give the briefcase to his parents, it's not because he thinks it was enough to pay for everything that his parents given to him but it was because he wants them to live leisurely for the rest of their lives.
For the land that he gives to Misaki, it was bought through the system and use quite a lot of system point if he has so much time to spend on that world, of course, he will choose to buy it with money instead of using a system point.
Arthur let out a sigh after he sorts out his emotions, but when he wants to get back to his room he feels there is something that didn't right
"Where is everyone?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
"Oh, that's Mama's picture!"
