594 Ren’s Response Letter

After reading Gabriel's letter several times, Ren was very sure that Gabriel never wrote anything about missing him in the letter.

Therefore, Raphiel must have written it wrong and joked around.

Fortunately, he had been teased enough by others so he was very experienced and could easily tell that there was something wrong with Raphiel's letter.

He wasn't easily fooled like before.

However, despite that, Ren was still very happy that Raphiel was willing to write a letter to him.

After all, he had never received a letter before.

"The important thing now is to reply first."

As for eating and practicing making meat buns, they could be put aside for now, no need to worry too much.

Using his superpowers to transform the envelope and letter paper, Ren took the black pen he usually used to write in his diary on his desk and began formulating his response.

The first thing was Gabriel's name.

[Gabriel White Tenma who lives next to me:]

After writing this line, Ren stared at the title for a long time, crossed it out, then took out another sheet of letter paper.

[Gabriel:]

Finally, he chose this title.

He felt a little awkward with that strange name.

After determining the title, the next most important thing was.

Honestly, this was the first time he had written a letter, and he didn't know how to write one.

Fortunately, he could just use Gabriel's letter to him as a reference.

[Just like you, the pleasantries are omitted.]

[I don't feel dissatisfied with the name you call me, I find it rather odd and I'm not comfortable with it. But I don't mind if you call me that.]

[This is the first time I'm writing a letter. I don't really know how to write one, so I'm just using your letter as a reference to write a reply to you. I hope you don't mind.]

This was very important and needed to be specifically emphasized.

[To answer your question first, let me briefly explain my summer vacation life.]

[During the summer vacation, I didn't wander around all the time. On the contrary, I was much busier than usual.]

[In the morning, I give lessons to Kominami-senpai. In return, she helps me cook three times a day. So you don't need to worry about me being malnourished.]

Gabriel should feel relieved now.

[I usually hang out in the afternoon, thinking about what gifts to prepare for them.]

(Explain why gifts need to be prepared for them)

Because Ren hadn't told Gabriel about this issue before Gabriel left, it was important to explain it clearly to her now so she wouldn't be confused.

Regarding what gifts he had prepared for them, Ren didn't write it down.

Except for Yotsuba, he had already chosen gifts for other people, so he didn't need Gabriel's help.

[In the evening, it's game time for Miku and me. We'll play games together and chat all the way.]

[I won't forget to do my summer homework. When you come back, you can take it directly.]

After writing this, Ren suddenly felt that what he had written was too unusual.

It was completely uninteresting, much worse than the letter Gabriel had written.

Indeed, he couldn't write letters at all.

After thinking seriously for a few moments, Ren continued writing.

[I'm sorry, I can't write letters. Even though I used your letter as a reference, I don't know how to write a perfect letter.]

[I'm not good with words, and I also don't know how to express my feelings and moods in words.]

[But I'm glad to hear your opinion.]

There were a few empty lines in the middle.

[Hope you have an enjoyable summer vacation.]

[Signature: Kamikawa Ren]

"Haaa..."

After finishing writing, Ren put down pen and checked the letter he had written again.

Still very boring.

Fortunately, he realized this problem just in time and abandoned his intention to continue writing.

Gabriel probably didn't want to read a boring letter like that.

Besides, Gabriel's favorite thing was playing games, not reading.

The empty lines in the middle were what he had originally planned to write about what happened during his summer vacation, like meeting Mafuyu's little sister, Miharu, learning to make meat buns, designing board games, etc.

But after careful consideration, he decided not to write about things that would be boring to Gabriel.

He wasn't confident in his narrative abilities, and he would only turn boring things into even more boring things.

After double-checking, Ren put the letter paper into the envelope, sealed it, and wrote Gabriel's address on it.

After affixing the stamp, his letter to Gabriel was ready.

Now it was time to reply to Raphiel.

[Raphiel Ainsworth Shiraha:]

[I won't easily believe your joke. But thank you for being willing to write a letter to me.]

[Signature: Kamikawa Ren]

No need to double-check this line anymore, seal and write Raphiel's address on the envelope.

His letter was also finished.

Now he just needed to wait until tomorrow to send these two letters.

"It's time to eat."

After putting away the letter he wrote and the one sent to him by Gabriel and the others, Ren was ready for dinner.

As he stood up, a ringtone from Miku came from his phone.

Looking at the time, Ren realized that it had inadvertently become time to play with Miku while he was writing the letter.

Therefore, he postponed his mealtime and answered Miku's call.

"Good day, Ren."

As soon as the call connected, Miku's gentle voice came out of the phone.

"Good day, Miku."

Ren sat back in front of the table and turned on his computer.

"Tomorrow... No, we can finish this game tonight."

Miku seemed to want to make sure of something, but she changed her words right as she spoke.

"In that case, do we need to change the game?"

After the laptop turned on, Ren opened the game.

"Right, I've chosen what game we'll play next!" Miku's tone was very fast, "You'll definitely like the game."

"I'll look forward to it."

······

The next day, Sunday morning.

"Are you going to make breakfast for me today too?"

Ren asked curiously, looking at Asumi who naturally came to his house.

The time he allocated for her lessons was from Monday to Saturday morning, so he didn't need to teach her today.

"Of course, I said back then that I would be responsible for your three meals a day from now on." Asumi emphasized her words.
