"….Ah, so… we have to do it somehow? I…I mean, the last bit of the menu."

Ene was sure the wall that supports her are still there, but she still fell down into the floor hearing Konoha said those.

It doesn't even take more than two days for Konoha to read that notebook himself while Ene wasn't paying attention. Ene regretted that she got her guard down for that moment. She should have hid the notebook deeper on the cupboard yesterday, is what she thought.

"-T—that's…. He's probably just joking around with us… " Ene muttered the only possible explanation as she attempted to stand, with the help of Konoha. Besides, that idiotic teacher of theirs had written even more embarrassing stuffs such as 'well, maybe your power of love can do something.' on the explanation, so it should have been it.

"…But it's worth a try…. Besides, I do want to have it with Ene. Sex, I mean." His face is blushing as a little boy with a crush could said despite that he said something that could be counted as sexual harassment if it wasn't for their relationship now.

"Don't say it straightly! It's embarrassing!" Ene yelled with a bright red face.

"…I was just being honest. D—don't tell me-" Ene could tell what Konoha was going to say just by the look of disappointment in his eyes, that she yelled at him again before he could continue. Konoha's mind should still a huge mess and he still can't properly express himself for the exception of some, and it made Ene feel more annoyed than the usual, even more than during their times as Haruka and Takane.

"I was just- I wasn't ready for that kind of stuffs, alright! Actually I…I don't mind- H—hey, what's with that look?!"

Konoha's eyes twinkles, however the context of that look somehow that embarrassed Ene to the point that her face was bright red.

"…Nothing. I'm just- really glad… Hehe… I'll be looking forward for the day you're ready."

"…Stop saying embarrassing things that so straightly, idiot…. I'll just go take a nap."

Too embarrassed with those words to the point she was ignoring Konoha's "Why not?" question, Ene continued her way to their bedroom. Not long after she finally got into the bed and lies down to take some rest; she could hear some knocks on the front door.

Slightly tired, but curious, Ene decided to pretend she was asleep despite that she was listening to Konoha answering the door. She didn't know anyone besides their teacher who knew of this address. It could have been a neighbor who thought they were actually just a married couple who have just moved in, and was here to greet them.

And apparently, it was true- it sounds like a neighbor greeting them. However, Ene felt like the voice was too familiar. Searching through her own memory, she finally realized-

"-I'm just joking about being your neighbor, Haruka- no, Konoha-san. I do remember about you both. You and Takane-san. And everything."

That voice, those words, that tiny giggle. Ene ends up leaking her expression of surprise.

"Wait, Ayano-chan?!"

….

...

..

As Konoha went to the kitchen to get something for Ayano to drink, the two ladies sat on the sofa. Seeing such familiar face after all this times really eased Ene, especially the fact that Ayano still remembered her.

"It's been a while….How's master- I mean, Shintarou doing? He's not with you?"

"He has a work appointment today. I wanted him to come, though he still didn't remember much about the Mekakushi-dan…. Ah, thanks, Haruka-san."

Konoha have brought them some drink, and Ene wasted no time to get one for her too after Ayano got hers. She was actually quite thirsty from this small talk- having back a body that can get tired is sure tiring for her, despite that she was thankful for it.

"Wait, he finally got work? Ah- I mean, I was used to him being a NEET that I…"

As far as Ene remembered, Kisaragi Shintarou was unemployed and spent most of his time in his room. However, those days might have changed him even by just a little, inside. She drank her drink while nodding at Ayano's story, until-

"Yes, he did now! It's okay! Anyway… I heard you both are now married?"

And that's when Ene busted out her drink to her lap and the floor.

"Well, yeah. Ayano, you heard that from your dad, right?" Konoha calmly explained as he tried to move quickly to clean Ene's mess, while Ene couldn't even make any legit words coming out from her mouth. She even wondered how Konoha could be so calm at times like this.

"Yeah…. Congratulations on your marriage, then!" Seeing how calming and pure Ayano's smile is, Ene couldn't even go straight on correcting her, despite that she was going to throw words like 'You've got that wrong! That damned human trash we called teacher was just forcing this on us!'

"It's nothing….Actually; I wished I could hold a grand wedding party, so I could see Ene in a wedding dress." And Konoha, as innocent as always, said those with a small shade of red on his cheek. Ene was going to correct him for real this time, but Ayano replied faster.

"Don't worry, you can get into that later after the whole Mekakushi-dan remembered! Have any plans for kids?"

Not this question! Ene just wished Konoha wouldn't reply those with something embarrassing-

"I want to make kids as many as a soccer team."

-and he did, Ene couldn't even held back a punch to Konoha's cheeks.

"Are you kidding me?! B—besides, teacher said this 'new body' of mine is not that complete, I might not be able to have biological kids even that-"

Konoha looked down, and said "Oh, right…", and the three of them fell into silence shortly after by the fact that 'they wasn't what they used to be', and not even Ayano could bring back the atmosphere from before. Ene felt bad for saying those, but before she could even mutter the words of 'Sorry', Konoha raised his head.

"Then we could adopt."

He smiled, and somehow, Ene got remembered how she loved his smile and optimism. However, she still tried to avoid it.

"That's not the problem! H—having kids is a bit tough, isn't it? Be—besides…"

"Ah, I know! Takane-san want some alone time with you for a while!"

"Y—yes, that is it! H—huh?"

Ayano's guess was a jackpot that turned Ene's expression to an embarrassed one and Konoha's passive expression to a smile of bliss.

"I see…. So Ene thought it like that… I'm happy…" Konoha's smile was something that Ene couldn't resist, yet she still got the desire to punch him. Especially that he's approaching her for a big hug.

"Don't say that so straightly…. Idiot…."

Instead of another punch, she pushed him away from approaching her, and Ayano giggled at the sight of the two. However, Ayano looked at the wall clock, blinked as she realized what time was it.

"….Ah, I have to go soon…"

"Why? You can stay longer, you know." Still pushing Konoha from her way, Ene smiled at her first female friend who seemed to be in such a hurry.

"….I wanted to check the others before Shintarou got back... So…. Besides, shouldn't you rest, Takane-san… no, Ene-san?"

Ayano stands up, still smiling. It's a bit too fast for them, but Ene doesn't want to get into her way.

So she just smiled back at her.

"See you later, then! You can visit any time!"

.x.x.x.

"…You know, Ene... I'm really happy that today, you said you wanted to stay the two of us for a while."

Konoha's hands caressed Ene's hair as Ene was lying on his lap. Despite that they slept on different beds until Ene was mentally ready, he was allowed to do so for this once, as it would calm Ene to her sleep.

"H…Huh? Well… We're separated for a long time, so I…I….I—is it wrong?"

She couldn't even deny that her face is getting red as she rose up from lying, looking at him eye to eye.

"Of course it's not wrong, but…Can I sleep with you tonight? We don't really have to do anything…I just wanted to be with you."

And there was silence as Ene rethought of things. She looked at Konoha's gentle gaze, realizing how much she missed him and how he would be missing her, how she missed to be with him just like this. At the end, she finally gathered enough courage to grab his hands, and said;

"….Actually, it's…. it's okay if you wanted to do it with me tonight… That 'last bit of the menu' that guy is giving us… Will you?"

Konoha was confused for a while, until he nodded.

It was the start of a long, long night.
