Editing Mahou Sensou:Volume 1 Chapter 2 (section)

===Part 1===

The gate to the entrance was not locked.

Takeshi felt dejected that his mother was home.

His brother would be at cram school and his father would be working.

The house had been built around 10 years ago, his father worked a lot to buy the place and hardly ever came home.

It was what a person would consider my home.

However, Takeshi couldn’t say it was comfortable in there.

Although Takeshi would be instantly be denied if he brought back any other girl besides Kurumi inside his house.

Takeshi thought it would be better if he didn’t have anyone, but recently his thoughts have changed.

Perhaps if had brought her, his parent’s thoughts might have changed and they would have been able to talk.

Takeshi thought that he might have wanted to see that a little.

He ran away from school with his Kendo Gi, when he got to the entrance of his house he motioned to the person behind to come inside.

Mui looked nervous, it was like she had gone to the house of some unrelated influential person.

Just as Mui was about to go up the stairs, the living room door down the hall opened up.

“Ah, he, hello,” Mui greeted in a loud voice behind Takeshi.

However, his mother’s expression didn’t change.

“Um, excuse me for intruding on you.”

Mui bowed, while his mother who entered the hall murmured “By all means.”

His mother walked by where Takeshi and Mui stood, put on her shoes, grabbed the parasol that was hung next to the shoebox, and quickly left the house.

She was going out to shop in the neighborhood because she had an Eco-bag <ref>A reusable shopping bag.</ref> hung over her shoulder.

Takeshi hid his dejected expression from Mui, went up the stairs to the hallway and took off his shoes.

“Don’t let it bother you. That person, she’s always been like that.”

“Eh? Really?”

Mui had been watching his mother leave, when she heard Takeshi say that, she looked over her shoulder at him.

“Is she your mother?”

“Yeah. That’s my mom.”<ref>He uses an informal mother here, compared to Mui who use the polite form in the previous sentence.</ref>

Takeshi answered curtly to prevent any further inquiries, Mui slowly closed the door behind her.

“You can go to my room first, it’s on the left side of the second floor, I’m going to get us some drinks.”

“……Okay.”

Takeshi left Mui at the door in the entrance and entered the kitchen.

―It probably appeared to his mother that her son had come home in his Kendo Gi with an unknown girl……

Takeshi took a deep sight with Haa sound.

Takeshi was used to his mother’s indifference and that kind of reaction was good for the people she had never met.

Takeshi shook his head several times to pull himself together, then opened the refrigerator door.
