"Mm." Mashiro nodded. "Ayano asked to see me, and Rita is coming with me."
"That's right, Young Master Luo. We'll trouble you with watching the house today. You don't need to save us any lunch either—we won't be back until tonight."
Standing behind Mashiro, the blonde girl looked at Luo Yu with a cheerful smile.
"Got it. You two be careful."
Luo Yu did not care about the slight provocation in Rita's words. So what if she got to have Mashiro all to herself for a day? Considering she had not seen Mashiro in so long, what was wrong with letting her spend a day playing with Mashiro? Besides, once summer vacation was over, Mashiro would still be with him.
Tch. Seeing that Luo Yu had no reaction, Rita clicked her tongue inwardly. Then she took Mashiro by the hand and headed out.
After Rita and Mashiro left, Luo Yu grew bored of scrolling through videos and took out his phone to see how everyone else had been doing lately.
He found that everyone was busy with their own things. The girls from the Light Music Club were all spending time with their families, while the three from the Service Club were somewhat unexpected.
Judging from the messages Dumpling had sent, they seemed to have gone volunteering. She had even said they ran into a particularly difficult child.
Luo Yu thought about it. He remembered that little girl's name seemed to be Rumi Tsurumi or something? Forget it, it was not important. It had nothing to do with him anyway.
Still, from what everyone had posted, each of them seemed to have been living quite fulfilling lives lately.
An inexplicable sense of loneliness welled up in Luo Yu's chest.
Sigh... Busy, all busy. Being busy was good.
