Chapter 383 Maki's Wife Feeling
After completing the formalities, Sawayama Haruno and the other two picked up a car that was already in the 4S store on the spot.
As a novice driver, Suguha Ezaki was inexplicably nervous when she drove out. Fortunately, Haruno Sawayama was sitting in the passenger seat to comfort her, which helped to stabilize her uneasy mood.
But even so, Ayano Yui, who was sitting in the back seat, still felt inevitably terrified. Looking at the scenery speeding past the window, she couldn't help but whispered, "Do you really have to drive so fast? Or should you go slower?"
"Is this fast?"
Hearing this, Sawayama Haruno was somewhat speechless.
"We're not near a residential area, and the speed limit here is 60. If you drive too slowly, other people will honk at you."
He turned his head to look at Ezaki Suguha beside him and reminded her, "Just keep driving at this speed. Don't be too nervous. Just watch out for anyone trying to overtake."
In fact, overtaking is relatively rare. After all, in a place like Tokyo, even on ordinary roads, there are few people who are impatient enough to overtake. After all, there are too many traffic lights at the intersection ahead, so overtaking or not doesn't really have much practical significance.
The traffic regulations of the island country are somewhat similar to those of Sawayama Haruno's previous life. For example, the speed limit in residential areas and other places is thirty, while the speed limit on ordinary roads is sixty.
Although the National Police Agency has been planning to lower the speed limits on ordinary roads in recent years, these plans have not been implemented due to Tokyo's special traffic conditions.
For experienced drivers, let alone driving 60, even if they drive faster, it will be fine as long as they are not caught by the camera at the intersection.
Sawayama Haruno is an experienced driver and is naturally bolder, but Esaki Suguha is unexpectedly cautious in this regard. After hearing Ayano Yui's complaints, she slowly slowed down the speed.
Fortunately, the noon rush hour had basically passed, and the cars behind her were not in a hurry to hurry her, which gave the novice driver a lot of comfort.
Seeing that the two women were gradually relaxing, Sawayama Haruno took the initiative to say, "We're leaving the day after tomorrow. Are your things ready?" in order to ease the boring atmosphere in the car.
"Hey, do you want to take a photo?"
Ayano Yui touched her seatbelt and said nonchalantly, "What else do we need to pack? We'll be rushing back to Osaka the day after tomorrow after the shoot, right?"
The plan of Sawayama Haruno and his friends to take wedding photos is more like traveling than taking photos.
They plan to spend half a day in Tokyo, then take the team back to Osaka. After finishing the shoot in Osaka, they will continue to Kyoto, visiting several famous cities along the way and completing the final wedding photo shoot plan in various landscapes.
Due to the large number of people and the sufficient budget, the filming schedule was naturally slightly extended. Sawayama Haruno estimated that they would have to spend at least a week on it to complete it all.
There was nothing that could be done about it. After all, everyone had their own style of shooting, and everyone's choice of locations was a little different, so Sawayama Haruno simply waved his hand and booked them all.
Anyway, according to the normal process, the wedding company will have to prepare for them for nearly two weeks, and they just have to pay a little more money to let the photography team follow.
For this plan, Sawayama Haruno can be said to have made full preparations. After all, the shooting period will coincide with the New Year's Eve. They expect to welcome the new year in Osaka, and then go to Kyoto, and use the Ginkaku-ji Temple where they stayed before to take wedding photos.
The reason for borrowing the Ginkakuji Temple this time was not because of Ezaki Suguha's identity, but because Sawayama Haruno used his little personal connection, that is, his relationship with the Ishizawa family.
As a famous family in Kyoto, the Ishizawa family was powerful enough to contract the Ginkaku-ji Temple. In exchange, Sawayama Haruno wrote the extended version overnight and sent it to the little princess. This kind of transaction felt a bit weird.
"Let's clean it up."
Suguha Ezaki, who had been keeping a close eye on everything around her, finally saw the red light at the intersection. While taking a break, she whispered, "After we return to Osaka, we will also be filming at Universal Studios. We will only be back to Sennan City for one day, right?"
"I originally planned to take the photos at the wedding hall next to my old school," Ayano Yui couldn't help but mutter a few words, "Forget it, it seems a bit troublesome to go back, I will clean it up later."
The last sentence was said while looking at Sawayama Haruno, who was staring out the window at the moment, not knowing what he was thinking about.
The four girls had chosen the locations where they wanted to take photos. Suguha Esaki was naturally the one who suggested taking photos in Tokyo, and the plan for Osaka was not proposed by Ayano Yui, but by Mana Miyazawa. It seemed that she had wanted to take wedding photos there for a long time.
Kyoto was proposed by Miyazawa Maki. She wanted to take the opportunity to make up for the regret of not being able to go on a business trip with Sawayama Haruno. The last scene was chosen in Sapporo, which was Ayano Yui's idea.
Maybe she thought that taking photos in such weather would be more romantic. The snow in Hokkaido and the romantic atmosphere are indeed more popular with girls. But what they don’t know is that there is really nothing else in Hokkaido except snow.
Sawayama Haruno hasn't figured out how to choose the location for the photo shoot after arriving in Sapporo. Forget it, just leave it to the wedding company and let them worry about it. Isn't the reason you spend money so that they can provide meticulous service?
Thinking of this, Zeshan Haruno suddenly stretched and said with a smile: "Turn right ahead, there is an underground parking lot. I'll park after we drive in."
They had arrived at the mall, and the three of them were going to eat at the restaurant inside the mall. However, for Suguha Ezaki, a novice driver, parking the car in the parking lot was a bit difficult for her, so Sawayama Haruno had to do it temporarily.
After parking the car, the group took the elevator upstairs to eat.
Sawayama Haruno made a reservation at a Thai restaurant because Ayano Yui had eaten not-so-authentic Thai curry two days ago and she wanted to eat authentic Thai curry early this morning. Sawayama Haruno had no choice but to make a reservation at this restaurant online.
After entering the restaurant, Ayano Yui was still muttering about the next plan, but Ezaki Suguha was inexplicably absent-minded after sitting down.
Sawayama Haruno noticed her expression when he came back from the bathroom, so he subconsciously asked with concern: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just thought about college." Ezaki Suguha lifted the hair by her ear and said softly, "I have to report once the New Year holiday is over. During the spring break, I have to prepare for things after school, which may be a bit troublesome."
“Are there any other things to deal with after school?”
Ayano Yui looked over in surprise. "It's not that much trouble, isn't it? Just report it, right?"
She will not officially start college until next year, but she obviously forgot how Ezaki Suguha was able to pass the school exam.
As a student specializing in kendo, Suguha Esaki has to join the university's kendo department after entering the school. Not only that, she also has to participate in kendo competitions among active college students. Although she is a girl, it does not mean that the trouble will be reduced.
The island nation still attaches great importance to sports competitions. Even in college, related sports events will not be reduced in the slightest. Ace players like Suguha Ezaki will have to participate in competitions from their freshman year until they graduate from their senior year, so she said that there will be some troubles after entering the school.
"I haven't even started school yet, but the teacher in charge of the kendo club is already considering whether to let me participate in the spring kendo competition."
Naoha Ezaki smiled helplessly and whispered, "I personally don't want to play so soon, but as a special student I was admitted as an exception, I feel like I have to go." According to Haruno's plan, next year should be an opportunity for the whole family to go out for a trip. If there are too many competitions, they may not be able to spare time during holidays, which makes Naoha Ezaki feel a little regretful.
We can only hope that there won't be too many players in next year's competitions, so that the school can send more players to compete and reduce the pressure on Suguha Ezaki.
Facing the tall girl's depression, Sawayama Haruno didn't seem to care.
"Then go ahead." He propped up his chin and said with a smile, "Family members should be allowed to watch the game. I will also take time to go to the scene to cheer for you."
"Ah."
After hearing what Sawayama Haruno said, Ezaki Suguha gradually felt relieved and a smile appeared on her face.
However, at the same time, in the new home in the port area, the other two were also preparing to set off.
"Maki, are the things ready?"
Mana Miyazawa bit a small rubber band with her mouth, and while she tied up her slightly curly medium-length hair with her hands, she couldn't help but look towards the bedroom.
She went to get a new haircut yesterday, and while it's not as short as Mana's original haircut, it's still a big change compared to the look Mana had always maintained.
The long hair that originally reached almost the waist was cut to around the shoulders. Such a huge change made people feel a little surprised. Haruno Sawayama, who had just returned home, was even shocked when he saw it for the first time.
In the past, the best way to determine the identities of the twins was by their hairstyle. Although Mana cut her hair, Maki has been growing her hair long since the middle of this year, so it's as if their identities have been swapped.
The younger sister who was supposed to have short hair suddenly grew long hair, and the older sister who originally had long hair suddenly cut her hair short.
"Okay, okay, hurry up, hurry up"
A reluctant voice came from the bedroom, and Miyazawa Maki pushed open the bedroom door.
Her hair has also grown down to her shoulders. Although it is not very obvious yet, she can be distinguished from the current Mana.
But when facing Miyazawa Mana who had her hair cut, Maki still didn't look very happy.
"Salmon Ball, come here and give me a hug."
She just squatted on the ground and called softly to the little cat lying lazily on the sofa.
The kitten, who had just moved into the new home but had already gotten used to it, ignored her and just turned over, pretending he didn't hear her. This made Miyazawa Maki so angry that her face turned black.
"It must have mistaken me for you." Miyazawa Maki couldn't help but mutter.
"Really? When I tried to hug it, it still resisted."
Mana Miyazawa couldn't help but look at Salmon Maru a few more times. She had a deep impression of this kitten because Mana Miyazawa was the first one to come into contact with it.
When they were in the park, Mana wanted to feed it, but the salmon ball dodged it because it was very timid at that time.
However, the twin sisters had completely different choices in dealing with the cat. Mana did not do anything after seeing Salmon Maru running away, but Miyazawa Maki instantly became excited and forcibly caught the kitten and took it back to Haruno's house.
This behavior naturally reflects the different personalities of the twins. For example, facing the current situation, Maki did not hesitate to step forward and pick up the salmon ball from the sofa.
"You just lie on the sofa after eating all day, and you're almost heavier than me." She looked at the salmon balls with some disdain, chattering, "You were so cute before, but now you've turned into a green tea cat, huh."
After saying this, she did not forget to glare at the innocent salmon ball.
It was obvious that he was somewhat disgusted with Salmon Maru's behavior. After all, this guy only stuck to Sawayama Haruno at home, and was rather indifferent to the presence of other girls.
Miyazawa Maki felt that she needed to let the ignorant Salmon Maru know who is the master of this house!
"Hurry up and put on your shoes and get ready to go."
Miyazawa Mana looked at her sister speechlessly. She was so grown-up and yet she was still angry with a cat.
It's hard to imagine whether Maki will be jealous of Haruno because of their relationship after the twin babies are born. No, there's no need to imagine, she definitely will.
"Hehe, I'll deal with you when I get back."
After hearing what Mana said, Miyazawa Maki put the salmon ball down although she was a little reluctant.
After all, she will be going back to her "mother's house" soon, so Maki plans to show the feeling of being a wife. Yes, that feeling of being a wife!
She can no longer be as willful as before. After all, she is now married to Sawayama Haruno. Strictly speaking, her name should be Sawayama Maki now.
In addition to the wife-feeling issue, I also had plans to travel and take wedding photos when I went back this time, because from the looks of my parents, it seemed that I wanted to go with them, how could I do that!
Miyazawa Maki was already a little concerned about the fact that the other four girls had joined. If her parents also came along, wouldn't it be even more troublesome? This was clearly her and Haruno's wedding travel plan, so no, she had to stop them from going along.
With this thought in mind, Maki Miyazawa put on her shoes as quickly as possible.
By this time, Miyazawa Mana had already checked the doors and windows of the house. After making sure that they were all closed, she slowly followed Miyazawa Maki out the door.
The world outside the door was faintly chilly. Miyazawa Mana squinted her eyes and realized that it seemed to be sleeting, but the rainfall was so sparse that it was difficult to notice even if it fell on people.
Thinking back to the weather forecast I saw last night, this will probably be the last light snow this year.
