Around summer, Crewe temporarily returns home.

The news arrived the day after the employee Krew's Erkühr Gemstone School Admission Ceremony. Yuki, who heard and knew all the revelations from all concerned, came to teach me "kindly" and "hurry" with a disgusting Niyaniya smile.

There is a summer vacation at Erkühr Gemstone School.

Sputnik felt like taking the dean and catching him and protesting about what resentment we had and creating such a system in a system with a summer period as a prolonged holiday, but when we looked it up, it was more or less in the school than in the Elkür Jewellery School's own system.

Reasons for the existence of the system appear to include summer heat control, student homecoming for reporting on student life to parents, confirming the ageing of the facility and securing a rebuilding period. None of this was a reason to be unconvinced. Just to my satisfaction, it's another story to see if Sputnik's spirit stabilizes.

Summer is approaching, and Crewe himself received a letter of warning saying, "I'll be home once".

And today, finally on the day he was due home, Sputnik sat on the chair at the store counter as usual, holding his head.

"No, but you don't think there's a long vacation less than six months from enrollment. Normally..."

"You don't have a choice because you do. I mean, if you were in school, you'd know."

"I don't remember because I did whatever I wanted, whether I had class or not"

I was sighed.

It is the nuts who come to patrol the daily routine who forgive you for giving up. It's a fact that doesn't change how much she says out of sight, but the story sounds awful and other HR, which is why it's abominable.

"I'm glad I haven't seen Crewe in a long time," I tell him to guess, but this one wouldn't have said anything about not being happy or anything. It's just...

"That's why he doesn't have to come all the way back to Liafiat like this..."

"That would make you want to go home, as for Crewe"

More and more Sputnik felt depressed, properly guessing the meaning contained outside of that statement.

I left a bomb too big, employee crew, of making a loud confession of love while traveling.

The duration of her enrolled course is four years. He said he wanted me to be his daughter-in-law "when I got back from graduation," so even if I left the bomb behind, at least, four years from now, it would be a muscle to see him again as he grew up after graduation.

"More than that. Does anyone come back before graduation......!

I don't know how to deal with it, it's not awkward.

I had been worried about this since I heard about the summer vacation, but I couldn't give an answer, and I kept on celebrating the day.

In less than a few hours, Crewe will be back. Before we do that, if we don't decide to be ready to face each other - no?

"That's right!

"Oh, my God, all of a sudden shout out"

"Now I've got a huge idea"

"Say it."

"How about I was able to buy in a hurry and just left for Vealton today!?

"I think it's the worst place I can think of."

I was just cut off and a low noise leaked out of my throat.

I realize once again that there is no escape. I still seem to have to decide to be ready.

"But even you're actually looking forward to Crewe's return, aren't you?

"Why would you think that?"

"'Cause I've been looking out the window a couple of times since before."

…………

"Even when I walked into the store, I got up from my chair like I was surprised."

"... fucking baba"

I feel smudged. She says she's an angry woman.

"Ma, it's time for you to come home. I'm sure you'll be well received."

"An extra favor. Go away, baba."

I threw up, and, uh, turned that way, and the nuts really left as they were.

One person in the store, left behind.

Guests don't come. I don't have a job I'm working on. Not that the idle birds were ringing, but because they didn't want to think about anything extra and were immersed in their work, the case all left at hand three days ago, and they are now waiting for their reply.

It is common for people to think about this when they are out of hand. Well, the returning crew came into this store and what would they think first?

Imagine opening the entrance door and looking around the store for the first time in six months.

On the shelf, I could see the dust piling up.

…………

Nothing, not for Crewe. For Crewe's sake and so on, but never.

Stand in a chair, take a flicker, point it at the shelf, and shake gently. Long hair dyed grey, but it was troublesome to shed dust and went straight under the counter. I hope it's not in sight, dirt, etc.

Also, back to the chair. And also think.

Speaking of which, will Crewe remember the location of the Sputnik jewelry store properly?

Though I lived here until a while ago, I meant that daughter-in-law. In the meantime, I completely forgot about this city and so on, and it's not surprising that when I knock on the doors of neighboring houses from one end to the other, I sob and proclaim, "I don't know my home anymore," etc.

No way, no, but in an impossible story. Based on the reality that he hasn't come back yet, any bad imagination won't stop if it starts. Couldn't stand the thought of falling around, Sputnik, again, stood in the chair.

I thought I'd welcome you home outside the store, not that I can't wait for Crewe to return. That's never the case. Just because a lost employee shouldn't bother your neighbors. So.

Sputnik took his chair off and left the counter.

Cross the store. Hang your hand on the entrance door. Open the door.

Crewe had no idea there was such a thing as a 'summer vacation' in school.

Joy and awkwardness circle around as if they were wheels in a carriage running for the city of Riafiat. Each time his face gets hot or cold, Crewe's cheeks are very busy.

"What's up, drunk? There's a bag."

"I'm not drunk!

Crewe shouted to bite as he turned to his peer Lau sitting across the street.

The anti-drunken candy works well. I want to kick his ass thinking about him saying things without delicacy and removing a mess of paper bags from his baggage, but it's dangerous to get up in a swinging car.

Big frustration. Crewe turned it into a sigh and spit it out, and...

I looked out the window.

The view flows from front to back without waiting for anyone.

A world approaching the city of Riafiat one by one. What Krew thinks while looking at it is about Sputnik, the shopkeeper, guardian and Krew thinker.

What will he be doing now? I also sent a letter when I left, so I'm sure it's at the store, waiting for Krew to come home. There's no way he's gone out.... and I want to believe it.

- Please make it a good one.

When I think of what I said that day, Crewe's face gets as hot as it got on fire.

What does he think of Crewe's statement?

From the city of Vealton to home, the letter was sent many times. There was an entrance ceremony, the class was the same as Lee's, the class is fun, I don't leave the dorm rice properly...

Less than the number of times Krew sent it, but Sputnik also sent me a reply every now and then. If school life was fun, it was more than anything else, or the temperature had risen but not to fall asleep in belly, it was all pale and his kind of sentence.

Sometimes it said, "Don't bother the teacher," "Take the class seriously," and so on, "Which mouth would you like to say," but that's another problem.

Involving the example statement, he didn't write it for me at once.

... maybe.

When an unpleasant imagination swells, it is born into Crewe's heart. Maybe Sputnik has completely forgotten about Crewe's confession already. Though I was surprised shortly after they told me, I'm sure that was kid's bullshit, and jokingly, I would have concluded on my own.

Possible. Whatever. That's Sputnik. As long as you have time, you're like putting a pretty lady in it.

It doesn't seem to me that he is the bearer of a heart that shakes a child's confession just once. Crewe's confession may have been to the extent of one of the affections directed to Sputnik by a lot of women. No, maybe it's less than that, just...

The back of my nose hurts. Though I don't think I should, I don't stop changing, my vision swells, blurts and shakes, and -

"You're going to throw up!?

"I won't throw up!

The tears gently pulled into the misplaced words. How can this person always be like this!

But at the same time, sadness blew away.

For once, you failed to confess. If he forgot Crewe's confession, you can scream as many times as you want to remind him. If you're laughing at children's bullshit, you just have to grow up not to be insulted with them. Because in the first place, it's student life for that!

When the candy jar is removed from the bag, it is turned upside down and the contents are removed.

And to the economy, I cheeked two candies at once. The cheeks swell plenty, rubbing and making noises every time I move my mouth, but that also sounds like cheering inspiring Crewe again.

It's okay, Crewe grows every hour of every day, every second of every day. When I was little, I could eat two extra candy balls. So one day, it may still be difficult right now, but one day, even Sputnik can turn around and be a nice adult. - That's why Crewe's leaving Liafiat City right now, because he's working hard.

Soon the carriage ran through the familiar city of Crewe. Oh, and when Crewe thinks, the carriage is starting to slow down.

Eventually the stopped carriage, no doubt, was in front of the intended store.

"Got it......!

Couldn't wait, Crewe opened the carriage door and popped out momentum.

And by then, I didn't care if Sputnik remembered his confession anymore.

I want to see you!

"Mr. Sputnik!

Landing securely from the carriage, calling out his name.

kicked the ground, ran, and jumped at the entrance door. Just then,

"... Wow!?

As if the store itself was waiting for Crewe.

The door opens from the inside.

"I'm home!

"... Welcome Back"

Congratulations, congratulations.
