Chapter 4: Me?

As he pointed at me. I don't know who is his wife is though. As I was trying to remember who is he talking about...

"Seems like you forgot huh? I understand. Well she is Hayami, my wife."

BOOM! I suddenly remembered. Hayami-san is that sexy woman with brownish hair and violet eyes that seem to sparkle like gems. While I do remember sharing a bit of myself to her due to helping her some times, I do not remember that she cared that deeply enough about me. I only remember talking like acquaintances but did she deeply cared about me?

"Hahahaha! She is very beautiful right? Of course she is."

My boss laughed as well. But Oliver-san continued.

"Anyways, she told me about your dream of having your own house. I do agree with that. But let me ask you this. Why?"

Even without probing more to his words, I understood.

"I appreciate my boss kindess but I cannot depend on his place forever."

Both laughed at my answer.

"While that was a bit erm... Nevermind, anyways, what do you think a home is?"

"Home? A house where it is mine?"

Both laughed again.

"Hahahaha. Besides that, what else?" with a very serious look.

"I never really know what home is but I guess it is a place where I feel safe and a place I could go back into."

"Good answer but shallow. Anyways, you say that but what about the place you currently live in?"

"I-I..."

I was struck with an arrow with his words. I don't know but having a home is a must!

"Since you know about my past I could say this, I want a place where I could be myself, no, a place where I feel free to do whatever I want. A place where I could proudly say my safe haven where no one could go into unless with my permission. I know I am still an underage but with my past, I learned more about reality than what my fellow age knows."

Both listened to me quietly. Iori-san is quiet but looking at me with worry. Don't worry, I do not hate you or anything Iori-san. I am thankful to both you and your wife for taking care of me.

Oliver-san spoke "I understand, but then again, your answer is shallow. It must be hard for you to carry those burdens."

"Mister Miller, I am afraid that its getting late." [Mister Miller was said in english]

"I know. Sorry to bother both of you with this interrogation of mine. I am just making sure that my beloved home will be taken care of properly. After all, Iori-san and I already took care of the paper. You can say it is yours now but, it is still under Iori-san's properties until you are old enough."

Atleast I still got what I want in the end.
