Alighting from the car, I can see Mrs Shimizu standing outside, waiting to greet us. And beside her is…Saeko.
It’s a bit weird, because I didn’t expect to see her again. I mean, I thought it was all over. Takahashi has been arrested, it only makes sense for her to move on with her life. That’s what I would have done.
For an omega, once the trauma is over, you make yourself scarce. It’s an entire thing, I swear.
“She wanted to see you, so I invited her”. Miyamura says, as if he can hear my unspoken question. Then he turns to look at me, “Did you actually believe Miss Akashi would not want to see you once you were discharged from the hospital?”. He looks at me weirdly.
I don’t reply, because we are already at the doorstep. We are close enough for Mrs Shimizu to start fussing over me,
