While Theo and the others were cleaning the restaurant, Ayia and Shizuka drove their car toward their mansion in Elffire City.

"Did you pack your luggage?" Shizuka asked suddenly when they stopped at a stop sign.

"Oh, damn it, I forgot." Ayia exclaimed.

"You realize that I mean the luggage that we will bring on the trip tomorrow, right?" Shizuka asked.

"Of course, I'm not dumb." Ayia retorted.

"I guess I can pack a simple luggage to bring to Sakura City today, and there I can pack my luggage for tomorrow. I will only bring summer clothes anyways. What do you think?" Ayia asked as she drove the car through the streets of Elffire City.

"It's a viable option, but don't forget to bring some sweatshirts too. It can cold at night there, especially if we go to the beach." Shizuka replied.

"You're right." Ayia agreed.

"Did you tell mom and dad that we are leaving tomorrow morning?" Shizuka asked as she went through her phone.

"Duh, of course, I did it. How could we leave tomorrow without their permission if they didn't allow it? Especially because of the famous January 1st Lunch tradition that we will miss." Ayia rolled her eyes.

Their family had a tradition to eat the rest of the New Year's Banquet on January 1st for lunch, as they gave the day off to their house employees on this day, and because no one wanted to cook for their enormous family, they just ate the rest of the dinner's party.

"I can't believe they allowed us to leave tomorrow morning. How did you convince them?" Shizuka asked.

"Well, they were going to say no at first, but then I said I was going with Theo and our new friends. Then they suddenly became super open for us to go. I don't know why tho." Ayia commented with a pondering face.

Shizuka giggled when she heard that.

"What?" Ayia asked.

"They obviously trust Theo to take care of you and want you guys to end up together." Shizuka said in a teasing voice.

Ayia was shocked when she heard that, and exclaimed, "No way they did that! Do you remember that they disapproved of any guy that could remotely become romantic with me? Even though I didn't want to be with any of them?"

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ "Well, that's them and that's Theo we are talking about." Shizuka retorted.

"How so? I'm not following." Ayia replied in denial.

"Come on! Dad and grandpa were best friends with Theo even before they knew that we were working at his restaurant! Plus, you heard that Theo saved grandpa's life, which makes them like him even more. And I heard that Theo refused any gifts from them after the incident, which made them like him even more." Shizuka argued.

"Well, I admit that can make them view Theo in a good way, but for them to ship Theo and me together is a little much." Ayia still refused vehemently as she shook her head.

"That may be the case before, but when they saw you working in the restaurant was a game changer." Shizuka said.

"How so?" Ayia asked confused.

"Come on, on the day before the restaurant's opening dad and grandpa were in the Eagle Country! And when they came back instead of going directly toward Sakura City, they came here to Theo's restaurant opening. And dad even got MOM to come for the opening too. Do you realize that mom, the one who travels the world all the time during the year in her adventures, came to the restaurant opening? That means that dad wanted mom to meet Theo. When was the last time that you remember that mom, dad, and grandpa traveled to such great lengths to attend, in their free will, a restaurant opening of someone they barely know?" Shizuka asked.

"I don't remember." Ayia admitted.

"Exactly! Theo saving grandpa may be one of the reasons, but not the only otherwise they wouldn't do so much. The only other explanation is that they genuinely like Theo even before they saw us working there. I heard that grandpa even told Theo to call him grandpa Takeo. Even in the family, there are very few who can call him that." Shizuka commented.

"What? Did grandpa say that?" Ayia asked in shock.

"Yeah, I asked dad about the whole incident of Theo saving grandpa in detail, and he told me that at the end of it, grandpa asked Theo to call him that." Shizuka replied with a shake of her head.

After knowing Theo these past few months, she really believed now that he would be capable of jumping in front of a truck to save someone.

He was so good to everyone and he had the physical condition to make such efforts.

She almost could see Theo picking up her grandpa and jumping out of the truck's way.

"I didn't know that." Ayia commented in shock.

Now she started to understand Shizuka's point.

Her grandpa was known in many ways, but very few had the privilege to be so intimate with him.

"Now, do you remember the way they reacted when they saw us working in the restaurant that night?" Shizuka asked.

Ayia thought for a while before replying, "Hmm, they had a strange smile on their faces that night when I talked with them. As I had to go back to the kitchen, I didn't talk much with them."

"Now for context, we both finished our degrees in the middle of the year, and you made a big deal of getting free of their conditions. You even told everyone in the family that you were free and you would anything that you wanted." Shizuka giggled when she remembered Ayia's graduation where she basically told everyone that she was free.

In the Yamada Family, every child had to graduate in business management, even if they would not work in the family's company. Because Ayia and Shizuka's big sister would inherit the company, the two of them would be free to do what they wanted after they graduated.

And at Shizuka and Ayia's graduation ceremony, with all their family there, Ayia was the class valedictorian. And her speech was a tad controverse when she said in her speech that she was finally free and would finally be able to follow her dream to become a cook.

Imagine that you are in a business management graduation ceremony and the valedictorian says something like, it resulted in a scene that everyone would remember.

Their family didn't care much as they already knew what she thought, as she already voiced such thoughts before, but they never thought she would do such a thing as valedictorian so they still commented.

"Now imagine mom and dad's surprise to see us, especially you, working in an unknown restaurant in Elffire City after your big speech about being free. What do you think they thought?" Shizuka asked.

Ayia became thoughtful as she looked at the road in front of her.

What would they think?
