Thanks to Devilish Dream for the cover! I really love and appreciate it. :D
Thank you for reading! If you managed to tolerate my writing until this chapter, that is.

· Spring ·
Spring is their favorite season.
The fact that spring is the season of growth is partly the reason. Spring is the epitome of new life, and allergies don't matter because the world is beautiful in spring. The pros balance the cons, and there's no arguing with that.
But the main reason why Natsume and Mikan like spring is cherry blossoms. Like other common citizens, they like watching cherry blossoms during hanami.
Plus, Miaki inherited their love for cherry blossoms. In her two years, she always had the brightest smile on her face during hanami, which took on the most glorious glow once she saw the pink-tinted petals. She always chased after falling leaves and petals with utmost joy.
Miaki has fun watching cherry blossoms, and Mikan and Natsume have fun watching her.
Spring is the season they spend the most time together as a family, and who didn't like that?
