It's all one flower.
639. Temporary Farewell
Cruillo put the spoon down and chanted [fucked water] slower than usual.
"Gentle water, rely on my voice and rise up. Drifting power, flushing, discerning, purifying power, fiery enemies..."
In response to powerful words, a chilled soup rose from the plate. Speak the words of the knot as you capture the Father's eyes wide open at the edge of your sight.
"... get up, rely on my will, water, warmer than human skin, until it boils"
When I jerked off the temperature, the contents returned to the soup dish, in addition to the other hot air. Let him snort in my father's rounded eyes and reheat Amana's share.
"Well, that's not a bad idea, is it?
"Oh, oh... but, Cruello..."
"Dad is the one who doesn't have to go to the company car to give it back before it gets dark?
"No, but..."
"Take Tis with you."
Amana blocked her father and put her neck around the three brothers and sisters in the bakery. My father follows Amana's gaze breathlessly. Leno and the others seemed surprised, staring back at my father with an indescribable face.
"Dad, what's a company car like?
"Hmm? Oh, a sales car... five passengers in a regular passenger car"
"If Leno and I were together, we'd have luggage, and we wouldn't be able to get on it again."
My father, Amana, Reno, Pinatifida and Elantis, just five. The package won't be loaded in the trunk, so no matter how it's packed, the six of us can't ride it.
"Uncle, it's thick, but I will definitely return this favor. Pina and Tis, please."
"Leno, what are you gonna do?
My father is surprised at Leno, who has changed and raised his head.
"I still have my ledger and credentials too, so I'm staying with Cruello."
"I don't have a ledger yet either..."
When Pinatifida raised her hand small and said, tears spilled out of Elantis' eyes. My voice calling my brother and sister is speechless.
A seemingly pharmacist (dull) Awellana took a piece of paper out of his coat pocket and spread it on the table.
It's a bank deposit card.
Explain in a flip.
"With a power of attorney on the back, the manager of Leno can receive it instead."
Give Pinatifida the pen you kept for a note on the news. Pinatifida took the pen when Leno and Cruillo's father nodded at the same time.
"Thank you, uncle. But your brother..."
"I'm a grown man now, and I'm fine."
Leno reaches out and wipes Elantis tears with a handkerchief.
My father spat out his giving up with his sighs and squeezed out his voice.
"Okay. Call me as soon as you have your certificate. 'Cause I'm gonna pick you up for whatever it is."
Borrow a pen from the finished Pinatifida and run and write company and company home contacts on a note sheet.
Cruillo tapped his company name, department name and phone number into his head and fastened the button securely by placing the note in Tsunagi's chest pocket.
"Um, do you have a minute...?
One of the returning refugees, who saw the story over, asked his father which route he had come through.
Cruillo and Amana rush for soup.
When my father speaks of the situation in the capital as far as he sees it, the returning refugees worry every word of it.
"There's a company maintenance facility in the eastern city of Lyabina, and they're already full of employees fleeing the battle zone."
"Has anyone escaped safely since the battle began?
"Yep. Both the government and the Nemus Liberation Army were the first to let the surrounding residents escape."
Even just the fragmented audio I heard leaking from the radio that night, I could see the blood flowing on the broadcaster.
I guess what my father calls the "first day" refers to the "first full-fledged day of engagement" that dawned on the night when the Capitol, the broadcasters, etc., were occupied.
"But earlier, on the radio..."
The voice of the returning refugees sank and my father clouded his face as well.
"I was also on the national broadcast of Car Radio earlier..."
"What did you say?
"This was FM Cravel..."
"A large number of people were wounded and killed in the [Spear of Light] of the government forces..."
The field air strained all at once.
"Earlier, at FM Cravel, you said it was the Nemus Liberation Army, right?
"Which one of you is the real deal?
Confusion and agitation spread, filling the cafeteria of the Returning Refugee Center.
Cruillo finished his soaked soup as his throat was about to clog.
We all go back to our rooms and pack.
"Seven people in such a small place..."
"Oh, Dad, no. The guy at the center told me that there was a room for a decent number of people, and he told me that we were careful to stay away from each other."
When Cruello laughed at his father, who smiled at his face, everyone nodded.
My father looks around the room and everyone again to thank me.
"Thank you for supporting our children so far. How can I repay you..."
"Oh, no, I don't mind. We've helped Mr. Cruillo and Amana a lot, so it's each other."
"That's right. Without Mr. Cruillo, I don't know how many times he'd have died, and I made a lot of travel money thanks to Amana and her songs..."
What my father showed me looking back at Cruello and Amana was a subtle smile mixed with surprise and pride.
"It's gonna be so long when I talk to you, I'll see you later. Pack your bags, or the sun will go down."
While packing quickly, Cruillo took out the [Crystal of Magic] to compensate for the action he had just received on the [exorcism] ribbon and roak. Let the girls wrap a ribbon around their wrists and hold [the crystal of magic]. A light pearlescent light spread from the ribbon.
"Is that...?
"I got a part-time job at a magic tool store. Ribbon of [exorcism]. Just in case."
Cruillo walked out into the hallway with Amana's luggage in his hand, telling himself half the time. Pharmacist (dull) Awellana hangs [key] and urges everyone out.
My father opened the trunk of the passenger car with the company name and pushed in the four luggage, but the instructions, spare tires, etc. did not all get in the way. I had no choice but to load it in the back seat.
Let Amana in the passenger seat put on her seat belt and my father turns to the driver's seat.
"It's okay, it's okay. Definitely later, because I'm going that way with Cruello."
Leno gave the sisters in the back seat a laugh, but the two of them were still gripping [the crystal of magic] as their fingertips grew white with their crying faces.
"Well, I'll call you when I've got it all."
"Okay. I'll pick you up right away. Don't push it."
To say more, I felt like I was going to cry, and Cruello just nodded and waved.
The engine starts and the body swings.
Waving at each other, the company cars left the premises of the Returning Refugee Centre.
Waving until he can no longer see behind it, Cruillo once again looks around the city around the center.
Nowhere is broken.
There's no street in the city this afternoon, but the car was running there. The signal is working properly, too. This residential neighborhood, without radio news, seemed peaceful itself.
