589 I’ve met him… (1/2)
”What type of person is he?”
Karen was astonished to hear that her younger sister actually knew a Spiritual Ability user.
”He's a really cool and handsome person…” Kaho paused for a moment as her cheeks flushed red. ”He's the person that I based my story's male lead on.”
Karen widened her eyes upon hearing this.
Wasn't the male lead of her younger sister's story the person that she liked? So this person was actually a Spiritual Ability user!?
Karen's imagined version of this ”boy” now had an added layer of mystical elements to him. She suddenly felt that he was far more complex than in Kaho's story.
Kaho felt awkward about this. She didn't want to tell Karen about Seigo because she knew that Karen would instantly realize that Seigo was the male lead of her story she was writing.
”I'll contact him right now.”
But, since this was related to demons, she had to take immediate action for her older sister's safety.
Kaho took out her cell phone and dialed Seigo's number.
He picked up rather quickly.
”Good… good evening, Seigo.”
”Good evening. What's up, Kaho?” his familiar voice spoke up on the other end of the phone.
Just hearing his voice made Kaho feel reassured.
”It's like this, my older sister seems to have met a demon…” She explained the situation.
Seiji fell silent for a moment before he spoke up again, ”Are the two of you at home right now?”
”Yeah.”
”Is there a coffee café or some similar café near your home?”
”Yeah, there's a coffee café nearby.”
”Could I meet with the two of you there and take a look at your sister's condition?”
”Of course.”
”Text me the coffee café's name and address then. I'll be over as soon as I can.”
”Okay… Thank you, Seigo.”
”No need to be so polite.”
They ended the phone call there.
When Kaho put away her cell phone, she saw that Karen's eyes were sparkling while staring at her.
”What is it?”
”He's the boy that you like. There's no mistaking it.” Karen had a huge smile as she spoke, ”You had such a cute expression just now. You're completely a girl in love.”
Kaho's face reddened when she heard this.
”I, I, I didn't have any such strange expression at all! Stop making things up, Sister!!”
Karen's eyes sparkled even more and became gentler upon seeing her younger sister's expression.
Karen reached over to pat Kaho on the head.
”Why are you patting my head?”
”Because you're so cute, Kaho-chan~”
”Don't call me like that, and don't touch me!” Kaho resisted against this.
It was nice that her older sister was spirited again, but wasn't this recovery too quick? Where did the pitiful girl who was just saying she was so scared disappear to!?
This was an old-fashioned store that was plainly decorated. The classical music playing inside the store combined with the pitter-patter of rain falling outside to create a nice atmosphere.
The coffee that the sisters ordered soon arrived.
Kaho inhaled the thick coffee aroma and was about to add some sugar.
”I suddenly recalled that this is our first time ever drinking coffee together outside,” Karen mentioned.
Kaho paused in her movements for a second before she continued to add sugar.
”That's quite normal, isn't it? Normally you wouldn't go to the trouble of drinking coffee outside together with your family members. You'd be drinking coffee together at home.”
”You're right… but I feel like occasionally doing this is pretty nice as well.” Karen smiled.
”Why's that?”
”Because our home lacks this type of atmosphere.”
”The atmosphere is important when being together with family?”
