Family Meeting

A few minutes later, after the incident, my mom closes down the restaurant for a family meeting about my new "friend," which I didn't stop them from interrogating Haruhime and me. Right now, Haruhime is not wearing the traditional red yukata but a new sweater and tight jeans, and using illusion magic system, she hid her fox tails and ears.

Mom: "who is this beautiful blond Asian friend of your my dear son?" she said with an angry look on her face and said, "are you keeping secrets with your mother? Oh, no, my son is now in his rebellious phase," She said with tears in her face because I didn't tell her that I had a 'friend.' before I could start introduced Haruhime. Haruhime introduced herself to the family.

Haruhime: "Hello, Mother in law, my name is Sanjouno Haruhime, I'm from Japan, I'm currently working for the military as an archaeologist, and historian. And I'm your son's future wife." she said with a confident smile on her face. Which I caught slowly on her last part of her introduction

While she forcefully introduces herself, I decided to let it go. But I was surprised that she presents her self as an archaeologist but not as a priestess. But thinking about it, she would not want my family weirded out of her beliefs in gods.

Jonah: "hahaha… my little brother finally has a girlfriend." Jonah said with a happy smile on his face. But as if brilliant idea struck his face, he headed upstairs for a few seconds and came back with a picture book " Hey, Haruhime would you like to see my brother when he was still a baby." he said with a wicked smile on his face. Before I could stop Jonah from giving the picture book to Haruhime, my Mia asked a question to Haruhime with an angry town in her voice.

Mia: "what do you like about my brother?" she said with a dissatisfied look on her face, "did you take pity of my big brother being kicked out from the military after they saw him as useless waste." Mia said, and started crying. Continued with her rant while screaming, "DID YOU THINK I'M LIKE MY MOTHER WHO WOULD GIVE HER BROKEN SON AWAY TO A STANGER!!!!" after saying her part she looked at Haruhime with tears and anger on her face.

Haruhime, with a smile on her face, looked at my family and me before saying her part.

Haruhime: "Sister in law, I did not take pity of your brother, no I liked him before he got his injuries. I wanted your brother because he is hardworking than everyone I know when we were in the same squad in the military. He even actively go after me wanting help on improving himself. I loved your brother and expressed my feeling to him. Still, before I could love him, he rejected me." she said before also started crying, "but when I heard what happened to him and how the military treated him like trash and threw him out, I was not there to comfort him and his suffering. Now I'm going to pursue your brother actively. This time I'm not taking no for an answer," she said with tears mixed with conviction on her face.

After that short moment of Mia's outburst, she ran toward her room and locked it from the other side. Jonah and I tried to talk to Mia, but she only said to go away and leave her alone. After that, my mom cleaned out an empty room for Haruhime to use while she's still here. Jonah being a big brother, tried to give blackmail material against me to Haruhime, which I beat up my brother with my one hand.

After a couple of days, Mia accepted Haruhime and started calling themself sisters. I'm happy and proud of my sister wanting to protect me even though I tried to protect them from the dangers of this world. On that same day, Haruhime started helping out in the restaurant. My mom was even proud of me finding a wife who could make top-grade Asian food. Which I didn't try to refute, Haruhime would actively try to make me go on dates with her whether we watched movies or go on a shopping spree with my sister she would insist that I come with her.

I also stop using medication to sleep as Haruhime would force her self into my bed. Of course, I wouldn't do anything to her, as I was still not ready to accept anyone yet.

(A/N: for the people who think the MC should accept Haruhime in bed. No, you should understand that to fix a person with PTSD is not to sleep with them but try to talk to them actively and their problems. If you sleep with someone with PTSD, you're making it worst for the person who has PTSD. They might stress out a way to much during your nightly sleep in the bed.)

I am surprised how relaxed I am when I'm asleep with her. When I sleep without the medicins help would have nightmares of that day, but now with Haruhime next to me I felt relaxed, I never felt this relaxed before site-14

Now in bed with Haruhime, she turned her body to face me to talk about something.

Haruhime: "What has been bothering you, Joseph? You know you could talk to me about that world." she said with a worried smile on her face.

After thinking about what Haruhime said, I sighed and considered her helping hand, considering that I am relaxed around her ill tell her on our next date.

Joseph: "What about this on our next date? I would talk to you about my feeling. Right now i don't want to turn my tragic life into pillow talks." I said with a half-asleep voice. Haruhime understood leet me sleep.

Haruhime: " what about the next day we go to the nearby fair and have some fun and talk there."

After some consideration, I just nodded my head and slowly drifted to sleep. While I am slowly drifting to sleep, I was considering telling my time on site-14 to Haruhime. Well, time will tell if I feel like reliving my nightmares.
