Chapter 159 159

"What are you saying, Kohana? Didn't we come here to enjoy the beautiful scenery? So why do Tenku and I have to take a photo together? If you want to capture this scene, I will do it with you." Setsuka replied and looked at Tenku to see his reaction. But he just kept silent, and it made her a little worried.

"Yes, you're right. I want to capture the beautiful scenery here to remember it forever. But if it's just you and me, isn't that pointless? I want to have a photo together with you two." Kohana put her hands on her waist and nodded.

"In that case, we can take a photo of the three of us with this beautiful flower garden in the background. What do you think?" Setsuka made a suggestion. It wasn't that she didn't want to take a photo with Tenku, but she was afraid that the other party would reject it.

Even though they are going out together now, Tenku and Setsuka don't have a special relationship. Tenku accompanies them because he made a promise to Kohana and not to her.

"Of course, we will do that. But you two should also have a photo together in this place. Don't you want to do it with big brother? Don't you want to make memories together with him?" Kohana looked at Setsuka and grinned.

Even though she was still a little girl, she knew that her older sister liked Tenku because she noticed Setsuka kept glancing at him from the Tokyo station, on the train, and until they arrived at Lake Motosu.

Kohana likes Tenku very much and wants to meet him often. Her wish will come true if her older sister and Tenku develop a romantic relationship. Because of that, she would fully support Setsuka and help her get closer to him.

"It's not that I didn't want to take a photo with him, but..." Setsuka glanced at Tenku to see his expression. She was worried that Tenku would be displeased by Kohana's words. Setsuka knew what her little sister meant but couldn't force Tenku to take a photo with her.

"Do you want to take a picture with my sister?" Kohana looked at Tenku and asked. She made a pitiful face so that boy couldn't refuse her.

"Yes, I don't mind, but if Setsuka is fine with it." Tenku smiled and nodded. He couldn't refuse Kohana's request after seeing her pitiful face. Tenku doesn't mind taking a photo with Setsuka as long as she feels the same way as him.

"I don't mind either!" Setsuka quickly replied, and her face turned red when she realized she was too excited after hearing Tenku's words.

"It was great! You heard it, didn't you? Big brother wants to take a photo with you!" Kohana turned her eyes to Setsuka and smiled broadly.

"Yes. Thank you, Kohana." Setsuka said softly and was happy because her little sister allowed her to get closer to Tenku. She didn't want to waste Kohana's efforts.

"In that case, give your smartphones to me. I'll take a photo for you." Kohana extended her hand to Tenku and Setsuka.

The two people looked at each other and passed their smartphones to Kohana. But her face darkened when Setsuka saw the crescent moon accessory hanging on Tenku's smartphone.

Last night Tenku took out his smartphone to check the video about the space collapse in Beijing, but Setsuka didn't pay attention to it because she lowered her head in embarrassment.

Even though they haven't known each other for long, Setsuka is sure that Tenku is not the type of boy who likes to use accessories, and that thing wasn't on his smartphone the last time she saw him. In other words, Tenku got it in Beijing.

"What's that?" Setsuka pointed at the crescent moon accessory on the Tenku Smartphone. She couldn't help but ask about it and had to know its origin.

"Ah, this is a gift from my master's granddaughter." Tenku answered honestly as he felt there was nothing to be secret about it.

"Is that so? Your master's granddaughter must be very close to you to give something like that." Setsuka said in annoyance. Tenku didn't know the value of the crescent moon accessory. But as a woman, Setsuka knew because it was made of silver and white gold.

"This is her parting gift to me. So there's no way I can refuse it. I can't say our relationship is very good, but it's not bad either." Tenku explained.

"I understand!" Setsuka nodded firmly. She knew what she had to do after hearing that.

"Hmm? What do you understand?" Tenku was confused by Setsuka's reply.

"Nothing. We'd better get to our position now. Kohana seems ready to take our picture." Setsuka shook her head and tried to divert their conversation. She removed her mask and stood before the flower garden.

Her mood returned to normal after remembering that Tenku and the two girls in Beijing were not romantically linked. She convinced herself that what they could do, she could do too.

"Alright." Tenku nodded and stood beside Setsuka.

"What are you doing, big sister!? You two must stand closer, so I can take the photo properly!?" Kohana shouts at them.

Tenku and Setsuka slowly closed their distance according to the little girl's instructions.

"No! You two are still not close enough! Please be closer to each other!" Kohana said impatiently.

"Hmm... she said that we're still not close enough." Setsuka said in a low voice and moved closer to Tenku until their distance was zero and their shoulders touched each other.

"Ah, okay." Tenku nodded and felt their atmosphere getting a bit awkward. Then both of them smiled at Kohana.

"That's good! Keep it that way! I'll take your photos." Kohana smiled broadly and started taking photos of them from various positions. She didn't realize that the photos she had taken on their smartphones numbered in the hundreds. The little girl was too engrossed in seeing her older sister's shy expression.

"Okay, now it's my turn! I want to take a photo with big brother!" Kohana asks Setsuka to switch places with her.

Setsuka smiled and nodded. She took over the task of her little sister to take photos. Compared to her, Kohana looks more expressive and isn't shy about clinging to Tenku. This made Setsuka envious of her little sister.

After that, Tenku switches places with Setsuka and takes a photo of the siblings. But not long after, Kohana wants the three of them to take photos with the help of other visitors in the place. Setsuka blushed when that person thought they were a family and Kohana was their daughter. Ten minutes later, their photo session finished.

"Are you satisfied?" Setsuka looked at her little sister and asked.

"Of course, I'm satisfied! I'm so happy today because I met the big brother and spent the whole day with him!" Kohana said excitedly and smiled broadly.

"It's good that you feel that way." Setsuka felt happy seeing Kohana's smile.

"Is big sister also happy?" Kohana asked in return.

"I also feel so happy. Thank you for helping me to get closer to him." Setsuka stroked the little girl's head.

"I will support you with him because I want him to be my brother! Anyway, you'd better pass him the tea you brought from our house now. She should be tired after the photo session." Kohana whispered to Setsuka and grinned.

"You… How did you know about that!? Don't tell me you saw what I did this morning?" Setsuka said frantically, and her face turned red.

After getting a message from Tenku last night, Setsuka had planned to go to Lake Motosu for a picnic. Today she was up early and had made plenty of drinks and food. She puts all her cooking skills and heart into everything she makes.

"Ehehe… I saw when you were cooking while humming." Kohana stuck her tongue out at Setsuka and laughed.

"You..." Setsuka's face turned even redder. But before she could continue her words, Kohana interrupted her.

"You better give him the tea before he buys it elsewhere, big sister. You don't want your efforts to go to waste, do you? Kohana teased Setsuka.

"Alright. I will make calculations with you about this matter later." Setsuka pinched Kohana's cheek and left with a bottle to Tenku.

"Thank you for accompanying Kohana and me to this place. Thank you for listening to my little sister's strange request. Please accept this as my thanks to you." Setsuka stood next to Tenku and handed the bottle to him.

"You don't need to thank me because I'm happy to accompany her. Kohana reminds me of my little sister. But I will accept this gift of yours because I am thirsty now. Huh?" Tenku looked at Setsuka and accepted the bottle. But then he was startled because it felt cold. He was sure that there were no cold drink vendors around that place.

"I cooled it down a bit with my abilities. Because it will be more refreshing when you drink it cold." Setsuka explained to him why Tenku reacted the way he did.

"Ah, yes. Thank You." Tenku opened the bottle and drank it.

Setsuka looked at Tenku nervously. She was afraid that the tea would not suit his taste.

"It's so delicious and refreshing! What's this drink? Where did you buy it?" Tenku said in shock. This was his first time drinking such a delicious and refreshing tea.

"No. I didn't buy it anywhere because I made it myself. It's a tea that I mix with honey and lemon. I'm glad you like it." Setsuka felt relieved and smiled broadly after seeing that Tenku liked the tea she made.

"Yes, I like it so much. I can drink this every day without getting bored." Tenku said seriously and showed the empty bottle to Setsuka.

"I can make it for you daily if you want it." Setsuka lowered her head and said in a barely audible voice.

"What are you saying?" Tenku didn't hear Setsuka's words because he was distracted by the tea.

"Ah, nothing. By the way, what are you looking at?" Setsuka shook her head and changed the topic of their conversation.

"I'm looking at Mount Fuji." Tenku replied. If Setsuka didn't want to answer it, then Tenku wouldn't ask any further.

"See Mount Fuji?" Setsuka tilted her head in confusion. She didn't know why Tenku was seriously watching the mountain before them because he had been standing there for quite a while.

"Do you think we can see all the buildings in Tokyo from the top of Mount Fuji?" Tenku asked.

"Hmm... You can see all the high-rise buildings in Tokyo and some houses near this area. But I can't say for sure. Even though I once climbed to the top of Mt. Fuji, I never considered whether I could see the buildings in Tokyo. Why are you asking such a question?" Setsuka didn't understand what Tenku meant by asking that.

"It's nothing. I want to get rid of the pests that have been hanging around me since last night. I want to eradicate the mother at once." Tenku said indifferently and silently looked in a certain direction at Lake Motosu.
