After that, my mother didn’t give me a clear answer and we soon ended our visit after Haruko and I spent a few more hours taking care of Minoru while my parents sorted out something.
On the bright side, my mother didn’t reject my request either. Most likely, the reason she couldn’t give a clear answer was because what I was asking from them was easier said than done. That’s why the thing I needed to do was to be a little patient and wait for the news.
In the meantime, she advised me not to be in a direct clash against Ichihara Jun this coming week. My mother nicknamed him as the golden child of the Ichihara. No matter what he does, he’s always going to get his way. Even if he’s wrong. And if he’s the one wronged, it would be like stomping on an anthill, angering the whole nest.
That’s what my mother told me to be cautious about. While they prepared for a countermeasure, I was asked to avoid him.
