~~TIME SKIP 1 WEEK~~

1 week has passed since Aya and her father, Hiroshi visit Tetsuya's house. In prior to this Aya has spent much time with Tetsuya and his friends, this increases Aya's desire to go to school and also wants to stay with Tetsuya and his friends. But even with her desired increase, she still hasn't told her father about her desire on wanting to go to school and wanting to stay here.

Right now, Aya who just got home from Tetsuya's house look at her father who is staring intently at the TV. Right now her father, Hiroshi is watching the news about bombs raining downs in far-off places, thousand of miles away.

Aya who saw this knows that if she doesn't tell her father what she wants, she will regret it, but she also doesn't want to tell this since this is going to burden her father.

"Aya, there is something I want to ask you." Said Hiroshi while looking at Aya.

When Aya hear this, she thought that her father is about to tell her something about moving out, but instead, she didn't expect her father to want to ask her a question.

"What is it, father?" asked Aya as she slowly comes closer to her father with a confused expression.

"Tell me Aya, is there something that you been wanting to tell me this past week?" Asked Hiroshi while looking at Aya with a smile.

"How did you know?!" Asked Aya who shows a surprised expression when she heard her father asked this question.

"Well, of course, how can a father doesn't know what her daughter is thinking." Said Hiroshi while looking at Aya with a smile on his face.

Aya who heard this is more afraid to tell her father since she doesn't want her father to stop pursuing his ideal because of her.

"It's okay Aya, dad is not going to be angry at you." Said Hiroshi with a gentle smile on his face while looking at Aya.

Aya who heard this then look at her father with a lot of determination and also bring some courage that still resides in her to tell her father.

"Father." Said Aya while looking at her father with a serious expression.

"Yes, Aya." Said Hiroshi while looking at Aya with a smile on his face.

"I want to stay here, I want to go to school, I want to stay friends with Tetsuya, and the others... So please don't go!" Said Aya who finally has the courage to tell her real feelings... her real desire, as tears slowly flow in her cheeks, she knows that this is a selfish desire but what can she do, this is the first time she didn't want to part up with something.

Hiroshi who saw this then hug aya slowly as he shows a gentle smile on his face.

"It's okay Aya... you can stay here." Said Hiroshi who is still hugging Aya.

"Really!?" Said Aya with a surprised expression while showing a happy smile.

"Yeah, but you're going be staying at Tetsuya's house." Said Hiroshi with a smile on his face.

Aya who heard this is surprised by Hiroshi's remark.

"Why don't we live here?" Said Aya with a confused expression.

"... It's because the one who is staying in japan is you Aya, not me." Said Hiroshi with a sad smile while looking at Aya.

Aya who heard this is shocked when hearing her father's remarked.

"Why aren't you staying here father?!" Said Aya with an anxious expression while looking at Hiroshi.

"Aya, you see... There is something that dad needs to do and in order to achieve it, dad needs to travel around the world, since dad already make a promise to your mother that dad will continue your mother's dream." Said Hiroshi with a sad smile.

Aya who heard this feels that somewhere inside her, there is a feeling where she wants to go with her father since she didn't want her father to go away from her. In all of her life when she is living outside Japan, the only one that she feels close is her father, and because of that, she didn't want her father to go away. This causes her to hug her father tightly as a lot of tears start to come out of her eyes.

"Dad also promised your mother one thing which dad cannot fulfill the promise until now... Which is to make our daughter led a happy life... Aya, dad wants you to be happy so stay here so that Aya can lead a happy life, where Aya can make friends, go to school, and many more." Said Hiroshi with a gentle smile on his face.

"B-but-" Aya who is still crying suddenly gets stroked by her father's hand.

"It's okay to be selfish Aya... As long as you know that I and your mother will always love you even if we're far away from each other." Said Hiroshi with a gentle smile while stroking Aya's head.

Aya who heard this feel all the weight that shackle on her heart has gone as she starts to hug her dad once more while crying out loud.

"Is it okay for me to be selfish?" Asked Aya while crying out loud.

"*nod* It's okay." Said Hiroshi with a gentle smile while stroking her head.

Aya then continues to cry until she calms down. Both of them then spent time with each other as a family for the rest of the day. That night Hiroshi promises to make a call to Aya once a month so she doesn't get lonely when he has gone.

Tomorrow, both of them tidy up all their stuff inside their home, since Aya is going to live in Tetsuya's house today, and Hiroshi is getting ready for his travel. Both of them then go to Tetsuya's house first since Aya is going to live at Tetsuya's house.

After both of them reach Tetsuya's house, they are greeted by the whole household which they welcome Aya. The truth is that Tetsuya already knows that Aya is going to move here since his family has been preparing a room for one person in the house which he can guess that the person is probably Aya, and he also already considers there is a chance that Hiroshi, Aya father is going to entrust Aya to our house, so when Aya arrives at his house today, he is not surprised since he already expected it early on.

Hiroshi then talks to Yukio and tells him to take care of his daughter, to which Yukio responds by nodding at Hiroshi.

Hiroshi who is about to go suddenly felt like his wrist is grab by a small hand. The person who grabbed him is Aya herself.

"Is there something wrong Aya?" Asked Hiroshi with a smile while crouching so he can match his height with Aya.

Aya then for the last time before Hiroshi left hug Hiroshi which Hiroshi then responds by hugging Aya. The hug lasts for 5 minutes before Aya then releases her hug from Hiroshi.

"Want me to send you there with my teleportation magic?" Said Yukio who offered Hiroshi help by asking him if he wants to get to his destination instantly.

"Nah... Even though that would be convenient, but I still rather travel there by transportation since it is more fun that way." Said Hiroshi while smile at Yukio.

"That's just like you, I guess." Said Yukio while sighing as he looks at Hiroshi with a smile.

"Then Aya be a good girl while staying here okay?" Asked Hiroshi while looking at Aya.

Aya then responds to Hiroshi by nodding her head at him which makes Hiroshi smile at her.

Hiroshi then left Tetsuya's house while calling a Taxi from there. Though Anna offers him a private driver from the Muramasa household to take him to the airport which quickly rejects by Hiroshi with a wry smile while showing a nervous expression on his face.

Though before Hiroshi left he then once more stroke Aya's head before leaving with a smile.

Aya then looks at the taxi until the taxi disappears, in her expression there is some loneliness due to split up with her father, and also nervousness since she is going to live here.

Anna saw this and come closer to Aya as she then crouches to match her height with Aya.

"Aya-chan, even though we're not your real family, but you can consider us as your family from now on, so no need to be afraid to ask anything if there is something trouble you." Said Anna while smiling at Aya.

Aya who heard this thinks that she should cheer up since she didn't want anyone to worry about her.

"Okay." Said Aya with a smile on her face while looking at Anna.

"Good, then since Aya-chan is going to live here starting from now on then we're going to have a party tonight to welcome Aya-chan." Said Anna with a happy expression.

Everyone who heard this is happy as they then enter the house with Aya.

~~ANOTHER TIME SKIP 1 WEEK~~

~~ POV Tetsuya: ~~

It's been 1 week since Aya has been living here. Well at first she still a bit nervous and feel a bit lonely since her father left her, but after a week she starts to feel more cheerful than the first time she comes here and also gets along with all the member in this household.

Right now, I'm playing a board game in the living room with Akeno, Illya, and Aya, after eating breakfast with the whole family. Shirou also wants to join but he is getting forced by mom to train 'Muramasa Sword Art Technique' which I can only smile wryly at him getting drag by mom.

The board game that we play right now is a board game from my past life that is called 'Snake & ladders', but somehow they change the name into 'Dragon & Stairs', yeah weird right? Well since I interested in finding out the difference between two board game, I decide to play the board game with the others

Besides the four of us in the living room, there is also dad who is sitting on a couch while watching TV right now. Suddenly a flip phone that belongs to dad is ringing which dad then picks the flip phone.

Well, this is the year 2006 which the technology development in this world also follows the same flow of time with my past life world, that is why dad is still using a flip phone.

Since dad didn't want to bother us that is still in the living room he then goes out from the living room so that he can have a phone call.

"Alright!! I won." Aya that beside me just declare that she is the winner of the board game which I can only look at her with a wry smile.

"To be exact, you ended up in 2nd place." I said this while looking at her with wry smile.

Well someone probably wonder who got the 1st place? well of course the one who got the 1st place is me. Well it's due to my luck status for helping me winning the game since I increase my luck status, well thankfully the cost of the system points that I need to spent to increase my luck status is the same as the other status cost which is 1.000 system point per 1 status point... Well if you ask why I increase my luck status point? well let just say, this is investment to increase my luck on gacha.

"Well It's fine as long as Akeno and Illya doesn't win." Said Aya with a smug face while looking at both Illya and Akeno.

Illya who heard this is pouting and somehow I can heard Akeno clicking her tongue with an irritated expression.

"I... I won't lose!" Shout Illya while pouting as she then look at Akeno.

"I'm going to win!" Shout Akeno who also doesn't want to lose.

Both of them then continue playing the game until one of them become third place. I wonder why the three of them is so competitive today, oh well lets just continue on watching them... but somehow I got a weird feeling about this.

Suddenly dad come again to the living room as he then ask me a question.

"Tetsuya there is still 3 weeks before your summer vacation end right?" Asked my dad while looking at me.

When I heard this, I wonder why he ask this question, is this relate to the phone call that my dad receive? Well let's just answer him first.

"Yep... Why do you ask dad?" I then look at my dad with a confused expression.

"I see, then get all of your things ready since you're going to have your first test today." Said my dad which make me a little bit of surprise.

"Wait a minute, Where do exactly my test will take place anyway?" I asked my dad with a curious expression.

"The place of your test is going to take place on the town call Kuoh." Said my dad while answering my question.

"Eh..."
