Late at night, I returned home after sending Zaimokuza and Totsuka home.

"Ok?"

After pushing the door open, I saw Yukinoshita drinking coffee at the table with the desk lamp on.

In order not to disturb little Yunai's rest, I walked slowly and quietly to the living room.

"Aren't you still going to bed so late?"

Yukino had already heard the sound of Hachiman opening the door, but she still sat calmly in the chair waiting for him to come over.

"Compared to me, you're the one who came back so late from playing. It looks like you had a lot of fun."

Well, this is really hard to refute.

I picked a seat nearby and sat down.

"It feels good, especially Totsuka."

—Ah, that boy.

Yukino put down her coffee cup and turned to look at Hachiman, like an elegant queen cat. Although she was wearing loose pajamas, her water-like temperament spread in the dark night.

"It's still the same, both you and Totsuka."

What? Is the relationship between me and Totsuka weird? And don't look at me with such a meaningful look.

Frightened by Xue Xidao's gaze, I unconsciously turned my face away a little.

"I'm really sorry for being so close to Totsuka."

This is the only thing I can do. This is the only thing I can do. I can't give it up!

So even though it was embarrassing, I still spoke my mind with my neck stiffened.

"Scared."

Yukino couldn't help laughing when she saw Hachiman like this.

Seeing this scene, how could I not know that this guy was pretending to make fun of me.

"Hey."

As little Yunai was resting, I could only express my resistance in a low voice.

But how could a herbivore shake the Ice Queen on the iceberg? So even after Hachiman symbolically resisted, Yukino did not stop.

"Whoo~"

After an unknown amount of time, Yukino finally managed to control her emotions.

Seeing that she stopped smiling, I could finally get down to business.

"In a few days, when everyone is free, do you want to go to the beach together?"

Although it was Totsuka who requested it, I was inviting Yukinoshita on my own behalf.

After hearing this, Yukino raised her eyebrows and smoothed the hair on her shoulders with her hand.

"Ala, it's really rare that you would take the initiative to invite people out, especially so many people."

Even after we started dating, he only often invited me out alone. It seemed that he had never invited a large group of people at once like he did now, except at wedding ceremonies and when little Yuna was born.

Especially since the current person is still the high school student Hachiman Hikigaya.

"Well, there are various reasons."

"Hey~"

Here it comes again. I just turned my head back and Yukinoshita's meaningful eyes floated over again.

"Humph, I don't care, but you, what are you going to do with the others?"

"As for the others, I will ask them one by one."

"Who would you invite if it were you other people?"

Yukinoshita’s question stunned me.

"They are the ones who are still in Chiba, Miura Ebina Yuigahama and the others, and Hiratsuka-sensei."

Yukino stared at the man in front of her with her black gemstone-like pupils, just like a cat staring at a mouse at night.

"It seems like you could forget about anyone, Hikigaya-kun."

"Ahhh, I know. I just didn't mention that person."

After being struck by Yukinoshita's teasing tone, I began to give up on myself.

"If my sister knew that you deliberately didn't invite her, it would be terrible. And if Hiratsuka-sensei is included, there's no way to avoid my sister."

What Yukinoshita said made a lot of sense, so I could only open my mouth like a dead fish but no sound came out.

"But that's all for later. Before that, there's one more thing you need to do."

"Huh? What else?"

It seems like there are more urgent things for me to do than the party.

Yukino gets a headache every time she thinks of this time of year.

"Actually, it's little Yuna's birthday soon."

Eh? Really, that little guy's birthday is coming soon?

"That's really important. What do you need me to do?"

I am still very concerned about little Yuna's affairs.

However, the way Yukino covered her face gave him a bad feeling.

"Actually... my sister's birthday is coming soon, so in previous years, my sister and little Yuna always celebrated this time together."

Sure enough! That look must mean something bad has happened.

"Your sister really knows how to pick a date."

What does it mean to be expressionless? Right now, Hachiman is expressionless.

"But it's not up to your sister to decide when the baby will be born. You have to ask mother about this. But if your sister hears what you said, she will probably go to mother and make things difficult for you."

Tsk, that woman.

"Speaking of your mom, does Yuna-chan need to meet them for her birthday?"

Compared to that woman, Yukinoshita's parents are obviously more dangerous.

My intuition tells me that the mother of these two sisters must be terrible.

Is someone who is more terrifying than Yukinoshita Haruno still a human being?

I couldn't help but shiver.

"That's not necessary. There's no need to bother the grandparents to come to the younger generation's birthday, and they're all very busy."

Yukino's words made Hachiman feel relieved.

Great, no need to face hell.

"So you chose to wait for me today when little Yuna was resting. Was it because of this?"

"Ah, what else?"

I thought it was some kind of 'wife waiting for her husband to come home' scene. But Yukinoshita didn't seem like someone who would do such a thing.

Throwing away the unrealistic fantasies in my mind, I continued to look at Yukinoshita.

"What are the specific arrangements? What do you need me to do?"

"It's nothing, just a simple birthday celebration for little Yunai, and then invite everyone in the family over."

What? Aren’t they the same noisy guys as usual?

"Got it. You will contact your sister, Hiratsuka-sensei, and I will contact Komachi. Ah, and Mitsuki as well."

Last time I got into trouble, Miyue didn’t come, simply because she was at school and couldn’t leave. Now it’s almost summer vacation and she has time, so I naturally can’t leave her out for something like this.

Yukino saw that Hachiman didn't want to communicate too much with Haruno, and smiled.

But there are some things you can't avoid just because you want to.

She didn't expose him either, because he would be the one who would be in trouble for her sister anyway.

"Once the personnel have been decided, we can choose the venue at our home. The place is big enough anyway, and we have always held it at our home in previous years."

Following the procedure, Yukino went over the things that needed to be prepared, but most of them were prepared by her, and Hachiman would just have to help at home when the time came.

"But should you tell Mitsuki about that matter?"

"We are a family after all, so I think it's okay to talk about it when we have a chance."

Although Yukino's expression is strange now, it is nothing to Hachiman himself.

After all, at the beginning, he was not familiar with everyone except Komachi, especially Yukinoshita Haruno, a woman he had never met before. He told her everything. Just because of the identity of "family", it would be no problem for Takamiya Mitsuki to be the same.

"Ha, it's your business anyway, just take care of it."

Yukino is at ease with her husband, even if he is smaller than her.

The previous matter of Sanriku was handled without any mistakes.

The time is set for two days later, when a small party will be held at home, and Hachiman will not have to worry about the rest.

Everything was almost arranged, and as the night grew deeper, the two washed up and went back to their room to sleep.

"Oh~"

Today, my waist, which had tried a little too hard, made a comfortable sound as it touched the bed.

It's true that I was a little tired. Although I felt a little relieved after lying down with Totsuka for a while, it was still more than six hours of driving. This kind of fatigue cannot be relieved in a short time.

"I should have drunk a can of Max coffee earlier."

My young body and mind need high-energy max coffee to replenish it, but unfortunately I have already washed up, so no matter how much I want to drink it, I have to wait until tomorrow morning.

"Totsuka~"

Holding the quilt, I fell asleep.
