Chapter 168: Hiding from Everyone
Days passed after our shopping trip, and the day of the trip finally arrived.
Since there were no holidays in June, the days passed by at a snail’s pace. Though the fact that I was anticipating the trip probably had an effect on my perception of time.
Today was Saturday. We planned to leave early in the morning so we wouldn’t arrive too late at our destination.
It was currently 6 am. After making breakfast and leaving a note for my mom, who was still asleep because she got back really late last night, I went to Umi’s house.
I would be having my breakfast at Umi’s place. After that, we would be leaving at 7:30 am in Sora-san’s car. Our destination would be Daichi-san’s mother, Asanagi Mizore’s house. Of course, Sora-san had notified her that I would be coming too.
The drive would take about three hours by highway. We planned to stop by a rest area along the way, so we should arrive at noon.
Suppressing my excitement, I quickened my footsteps.
When I arrived at Umi’s doorstep, I saw a huge bag by the side. It seemed like everyone was ready to go.
“Good morning, Maki. Did you sleep well last night? You didn’t stay up late, right?”
