Residence Permit
Step by step foot entered the large house which was located adjacent to the Fuyuki House.
[District Head's house] It is quite nice and has a shady yard.
But, what kind of family figure will Mawaru meet in there?
....
The door is open, from outside the room inside the house looks bright with an incandescent lamp with an energy of about 50 watts.
Now Fuyuki and Mawaru are standing at the door, they are waiting for someone to tell him to come in ...
Fuyuki tried to knock on the door.
"Isn't there a bell?" muttered Mawaru who saw Fuyuki knocking on the door louder and louder.
"Understandably, they are busy," Fuyuki replied briefly.
"Oh yes."
How busy is Pak District Head's family?
The room inside looks comfortable not much different from Fuyuki's, while the house Mawaru used to live in is just an ordinary house 3x smaller than theirs. Mawaru's memory is still faded remembering his story in the past after seeing the differences in the place where he lives today.
In the room, there were many voices of small children.
The sound of footsteps approached the two of them, a man wearing a shirt approached them.
That is District Head, Hisagi Nakamura.
....
While he invited the two of them to enter, his wife was making dishes for the guests. Then serve them both when they sat talking.
"Sir, here is Mawaru Yoshioka from Tokyo. He will stay here for a while. "
This time Fuyuki introduced Mawaru to the RT and his family as his family. Mawaru was not too nervous about the friendly atmosphere of the District Head's family.
"Yes." Replied the District who then checked the file list of family names that Fuyuki submitted.
His wife smiled gently at the two of them.
"Please eat first."
....
"Okay, tomorrow morning I will ask for a stamp of community harmony and a permit to stay here. Mawaru has to come to the office tomorrow at 7 in the morning. "
"Good, Sir."
It turns out that the licensing is that easy ...
"Please don't lose the files that have been stamped from me."
"Yes sir," Mawaru said readily.
Usually when the headman goes to the sub-district, but Mawaru is not a permanent resident who lives temporarily so, just go to office only.
"Let me help save it." Said Fuyuki who raised his hand under the residence permit file that Mawaru had brought.
Then Mawaru gave it to Fuyuki. "Alright," Mawaru smiled gently at him ... "Thank you, Fuyuki." Mawaru has learned not to be awkward anymore.
Fuyuki also smiled faintly.
Then they both went home and prepared to eat dinner.
****
Today's menu is Curry - Hiyori's Cooking Schedule but helped by Ashina.
"O-oh, curry huh?" said Mawaru who was surprised to see the cooked curry neatly served by Hiyori on the plate on the dining table.
"Yes please." Hiyori smiled broadly, and then Ashina took a special part for Fuyuki.
"Eh, that is curry too?" Mawaru asked in amazement, who was already sitting sweetly wanting to eat Hiyori's curry. Meanwhile, Hiyori took off the apron she used for protection while cooking earlier.
"Yes," Ashina said very optimistically.
In Mawaru's heart "Pale."
[Pale Curry - It's an Ana Bantingan style curry, let's call it a non-spicy curry]
"Yes, this is specifically Fuyuki." He added.
"I ... can't eat spicy food," said Fuyuki who suddenly stared blankly at Mawaru's face. "Gomen (Sorry)." Food as innocent as a child, he felt as if Fuyuki was the type who needed special care to live.
"Oh u ~ um, I should apologize for not knowing." Said Mawaru who bowed his head a little because he felt guilty for his attitude that asked this insolently (even though the question was normal - afraid to offend Fuyuki).
"Yosh, we eat." Hiyori started this dinner banquet.
They all ate the curries taken from their respective spoons and put it in their mouths...
"..." A silence was created.
Hiyori saw their flat expressions… "How?" he said ... ask Ashina, Mawaru and Fuyuki.
"It's delicious." Said Fuyuki in answer to his first question.
"Yes, delicious," Ashina said convincing Fuyuki.
"Really?"
"What about Mawaru?" Mawaru suddenly pondered for a while and then spooned out the curry again, "This is so cute ~ !!!"
"Eeeeh, thank goodness." Hiyori managed to cook perfectly.

....
The closer the night gets to the day will change...
In this fairly large house, someone is chattering in the room.
"Mawaru hasn't slept yet?" said Fuyuki who heard it outside the room.
Mawaru was on a phone with someone, then ended the call. Mawaru opened the bedroom door and looked at Fuyuki, "Yes, why?"
"It's okay, I just passed after drying the clothes." Fuyuki, who after washing clothes at night and drying them in the attic.
"Oh, I see."
"Tomorrow, try to get up early, don't be late."
"Good."
Fuyuki stepped away from Mawaru, but-
"The name of the District Head ..." Mawaru hesitated to say it.
"Yes, Hisagi Nakamura. Why?"
"Yesterday before I came here, I fought at the Higashiyodogawa. Then, being helped by someone who has the same surname… but, it seems like his family is quite gloomy different from the family I met here. "
"Then?" asked Fuyuki, who put on a slightly relaxed face ...
"Did those 'Nakamura' I met have something to do with next door?"
"..." Fuyuki was silent without an answer.
Mawaru again asked, "Was, yesterday Master secretly helped me?"
Fuyuki turned to Mawaru with a flat face without any sweetness, "I don't know."
"..." Mawaru gave Fuyuki a slightly gloomy look.
Fuyuki took a step forward and paused for a moment, "Isn't it that if you're not sure what other people say, you can read what is in his heart?"
Instantly Fuyuki's words made Mawaru stare and start reading Fuyuki's self.
"Yes." Mawaru felt relieved after that.
Fuyuki left Mawaru who now found the answer by himself.
In Mawaru's heart, "Fuyuki Master is not someone who helps me."
Mawaru went into the room, then made the bed and turned off the light.
He stretched out on the bed then stretched to the right, he was pensive as he brought his hand to his face ... "So, who yesterday helped me?"
The foreigners that Mawaru met before arriving at Fuyuki's house.
"Can I welcome tomorrow?"
Slowly Mawaru fell asleep in his sleep.
****
....
The morning sun began to glow gently with the warmth of the air over the spring.
'KNOCK KNOCK' the sound of someone knocking on the door.
Mawaru, who was still half-conscious from his sleep, yawned and got up from his bed.
Mawaru stared at the clock in the small wardrobe beside the bed.
[6:30 hours]
Then opened the door to the room that someone knocked on, "who?" he thought ...
"Oi, hurry up and wash your face and change your clothes." Someone cool and neatly dressed like a prince who is picking up Mawaru for a date (even though he only wears neat clothes).
"AAAAAAAA ~ !!" Mawaru was cackling softly with his face blushing as someone caught in the act.
That person, Fuyuki ... after waking up Mawaru immediately left him. "We have half an hour left." He went to the main room relaxing while drinking tea and reading the newspaper subscription like an adult.
"TRUE TODAY AT 7 I HAVE TO ... AKKKKH !!!!" This time Mawaru was completely oversized.
But, Mawaru is not short of wits ... "Nee, how about asking Hiyorin to help us move us to-"
"Unfortunately, Hiyori is out on a mission."
"WHAT !!?" Mawaru's face was shocked unnaturally.
"Hurry up." Fuyuki had to take Mawaru to the district office to ask for a valid stamp. That was a suggestion from District Head last night.
That night Fuyuki went to the District Head's house with a file, "I think because Mawaru is a woman, I can just be represented by the District Head." He thought. But, he also wanted to get acquainted with him.
Then long before he returned home, "after you introduce him to me, I will sign this file. Tomorrow takes him to my office. "
"Yes, okay," Fuyuki replied briefly.
....
But now, at last ...
Mawaru woke up late and made them late for about half an hour.
It's not usual for Fuyuki to have this habit of being late, it's all because of the slow Mawaru. Again Mawaru felt guilty as he walked with him to the District office.
"Is District Head willing to forgive this delay?"
