A Raid?!

A light breeze blew against Hajime's face as he and Megumi walked down the street. They'd already gotten the groceries and they were heading home, side by side as usual. This is not an unusual setting for Hajime since Megumi would sometimes accompany him home. She'd always have Franz with her though, which is nice since it would just make the atmosphere more awkward if he wasn't there.

An awkward silence befell Hajime and Megumi as they walked, but it didn't make them feel uncomfortable at all. Megumi twiddled her thumbs as she tried to come up with a topic. She wanted to ask Hajime about his parents, about the incident, about his sister... pretty much about anything.

But she wasn't sure whether she should ask something that's so private. That's why the only thing she did was bite her lips and walk alongside Hajime as they made their way home.
