“Auntie, can I ask about what happened after I left yesterday? Even though it turned out to be a misunderstanding, I also couldn’t help but get worried when I heard it from Mina earlier.”
To get a clearer view of what actually happened, I raised that to Auntie Yayoi moments after the call with Mina ended.
Feeling guilty over such a thought was kind of hilarious in a way but outside of my complex perspective wherein my girls accepted each other, it’s probably something to be guilty about. It’s definitely fine to fantasize like that. For sure, the other girls were also thinking the same thing at times. The difference is… Auntie Yayoi wore it on her face. Hence, Mina misunderstood.
It took a good while to hear her response. She’s confused by Mina’s last sentence, after all. But that’s fine, we both had the time.
In the meantime, I used the moment to reorganize my thoughts. I started considering telling her about my whole past and the complex relationship she had gotten in.
