Chapter 173: Asanagi Riku and Shimizu Shizuku
The young woman’s name was Shimizu Shizuku-san.
She worked at the Shimizu Inn, where we were going to stay for the trip. Her parents ran the inn and she was their only daughter.
As one could see from the way they called each other ‘Rikkun’ and ‘Shi-chan’, they had known each other since they were young. In other words, they were childhood friends.
“Jeez, I didn’t expect Rikkun to come home~ Why didn’t you tell me, Granny? If I knew that Rikkun is coming, I would have put on a little more makeup~”
“Grandma, you didn’t tell me that Shi-cha– Shizuku is here?”
“Shizuku? What’s wrong, Rikkun? Why won’t you call me Shi-chan again?”
“Uh, let’s talk about that later… Anyway, why didn’t you tell me anything, Grandma?”
“Yeah, yeah, why didn’t you tell me anything, Granny?”
“The two of you are as noisy as always, jeez. I just forgot to tell you. I’m not so young anymore, you know?”
