176 176 "With me and my father" (1/2)

”Oh, oh, dear--!

”Oh?

”Oh, gosh!　Extraordinary!　I'm a transplant from Japan too!

Oh, I know. He's got dark hair and a Japanese look to him. Oh, I don't know, you're probably from around here too.

”Oh, haha. Maybe.

Look out!

I was about to call out with my dad.

But this wasn't a dream...it was the unmistakable reality.

Right in front of me is a boy clearly younger than me.

This person's name is Himuro Keiji.

That is none other than my father's name.

That means that this boy in front of me now is my father when I was a child.

I can't help but stare at the boy in front of me.

Oh, um, what's wrong?

”Oh, no, it's nothing. It's just that I came over here for the first time to meet a transferee. ......

This is not good.

It is suspicious to stare too long.

We should keep a moderate distance and deal with this situation calmly.

If this is the past, when my father first came to this other world, then it's best not to interfere too much with it.

It may affect the future I was in.

...... No, it's already influenced by the fact that you've met me?

Hmmm. I'm not sure.

Uh, hello.

And while I was worrying about this, Keji, who wasn't my dad ......, was talking to me.

Um, excuse me. I'd like to know your name, if that's okay with you.

”Huh, mine?

Yes. I hope you don't mind.

That being said, I can't tell you my real name: .......

After struggling for a while, I replied with one word.

”...... is Kyou.

Kyou-san, right. Okay, I see.

When I answered, Keiji nodded with a smile.

Well, well, my real name is Kyoji, so it's safe to say that this is ......?
