Chapter 1:

Welcome party

Chi no kake-ra:Tokeru chi


My big brother Takuya and I went back to Hellhaim.

Oh great!My laptop needs service.I went to the house of mr Kentaro.He is a family friend and his specialty is programming.Unfortunately he wasn't at home.But I spotted someone familiar.

"Reiko...good morning."

"Oh Motoo...what are you doing?"

"I am working for mr Kentaro.What can I do for you?"

"Can you do a service to my laptop?"

"Sure.Do you know mr Moriyama?"

"Yes.He is a family friend.How much do I owe you?"

"I don't want money."

"Fine.Let's meet to the cafeteria,tommorow at five o' clock.Deal?"

"Yes."

So I did the service.The day was peaceful.I went on a patrol.Nothing unsual happened.The next day I had breakfast and went to work.

I finished earlier.I went to the cafeteria.Reiko was waiting for me.

"Am I late?" I asked

"No I just got here five minutes ago."

Reiko and I bought a milkshake.Reiko ordered a strawberry milkshake and I ordered a vanilla milkshake.It was delicious.After paying the bill we went for a walk.

"Motoo,did you move here with your parents?"

"No.I am moved here by myself.I lost my parents when I was young.I am a spirit seer as you can see.I remember that day,my uncle and aunt were looking after me.I told them about a spirit that I saw but they didn't believe me.

When my parents died,my grandmother Akari decided to look after me.She could undesrtand me since she was a spirit seer too."

"I am sorry...I didn't mean..."

"It's alright.Please don't apologize."

"Motoo about my parents...they were step siblings and their relatives were against it.Mr Kentaro wasn't against their relationship.So they run away and made a new life.When they passed away it was mr Kentaro who looked after me and my brother.I am sorry I talked too much..."

"No.Please feel free to talk."

"Thank you Motoo.So how is Hellhaim?"

"I was a bit hesitant but I think I will get used to it."

"It makes me happy to hear that.My brother and I were born in Okinawa."

"I never have been to Okinawa before.How is it?"

"Beautiful and peaceful.Come with me."

I grabbed his hand and we went to the organization's headquarters.I told Motoo to wait for a little.We were finally ready.Then we turned the lights on.

The day before mr Koshi said he wanted to throw a welcome party for Motoo.I told him I could guide Motoo to come at the headquarters.

The banner said "Welcome Motoo." Those were our words to Motoo too.

Motoo was ready to cry.Instead he smiled.

"Thank you everyone." he said 

Everyone enjoyed the party.
