"Mugi, I deman an explanation!" Mugi's father barged into the room but soon being hit by Mugi's mother.
"Touro, how many times do I need to tell you not to barge into patient's room?"
"But Kaoruko, I just want to confirm something with Mugi."
"I don't care, apologize to the children now."
"But…"
"No but!"
"Yes, I'm sorry for barging in."
"It's alright,Kotobuki-san." Ritsu smiled.
"Father, mother, why are you doing here?" Mugi asked.
"Oh, Mugi, are you okay?"
"Yes, mother."
"Mugi, I have something important to ask you."
"What is it, father?" Mugi's father inhaled before asked. Mugi stared at his father behavior.
"Mugi, are you going out with a girl other than Ritsu?" Mugi slightly nodded her head.
"May we meet with that girl?" Mugi's mother asked politely.
"Erm, hi, Mr. and Mrs Kotobuki, I'm Hirasawa Ui." Ui bowed.
"Father, mother; she is the one that I am going out with." Mugi introduced Ui to her parents. Her parents walked around Ui and stared her from head to toes.
"Hmm, she is a good and cute girl." Mugi's mother nodded her head.
"Now I see why Kouchirou want me to approve this relationship." Mugi's father nodded. Both of them looked at each other and smiled.
"Mugi, your father and I had come to a conclusion about your relationship." Mugi and Ui held their hands together.
"We think that Ui-chan is a cute girl so we support this relationship. Of course if you two canget married, that also will be perfect." Mugi's father said.
"Touro, the last part is unnecessary." Mugi's mother sighed.
"Really, father? Can I really be with Ui?" Mugi asked, grabbing her father's shoulder tightly.
"Yes, my angel. You really can be with Ui. Besides, Ui is a sweet girl." Mugi's father looked at Mugi and hugged her tightly.
"Yo! That's the Touro that I knew!" Suddenly someone barged into the room once again and head locked Mugi's father.
"K-kouchirou, let g-go of me."
"Owh, come on. Don't act such a stranger to me. You, me, Keiichi, Yuuji and Haruka are buddies since primary school although Hiiragi join us later at secondary school."
"Y-yeah, b-but how do I a-act friendly if you keep headlocking me?"
"Oh, sorry about that." Kouchirou smiled sheepishly with one hand rubbing against his neck, just like what Ritsu used to do.
"That's why I told you to knock when you walk in, Kouchirou." Haruka walked in and sighed.
"Hehe, oh come on! We are best buddies! Both of you act so coldly against me. I want to seek help from Keiichi!" Suddenly, he felt someone is pulling his shirt.
"Oh, hi. How can I help you?"
"Erm, Tainaka-san.." Yui began to say when Kouchirou stop her.
"Please, call me Kouchirou. I don't like all this formality from my daughter's friends."
"Oh, then Kouchirou-san, the Keiichi that you mention just now, is it Hirasawa Keiichi?"
"Oh why yes! Hirasawa Keiichi, may I ask who is he to you?"
"He is my father. I'm Hirasawa Yui and she is my younger sister, Hirasawa Ui."
"Oh, so you are Keiichi's daughters. You two look so much like your mom, except your hair color and your eyes that look like Keiichi." Kouchirou rustled Yui's hair.
"Then about Yuuji that you mention just now, is it Nakano Yuuji?"
"Let me guess, you bare Nakano Azusa, Yuuji's daughter. You really are the younger version of your mom." Haruka laughed.
"Yeah, Yuuji is the only one among us that still playing music with his wife." Touro laughed. The girls all looked at them and confused about what they meant.
"Wait, dad! Don't tell me you, Mio's dad, Mugi's dad, Yui's dad and Azusa's dad were childhood friends?" Ritsu asked.
"Yeah, you are right. Your dad and the others are friend and they all are just like you all, they played in a band that they created themselves." Ritsu's mom sighed as she recalled those high school days.
"Yeah, they were quite popular back then but they soon gave up in music except Yuuji." Mugi's mom joined in the conversation.
"No way, that's why you let me buy the whole drum set although it is expensive." Ritsu said in amusement.
"Yeah, but you all will be like we all, leaving music one by one, and leaving the children to explore their own music." Yui's father walked in.
"Yeah, I still remember that Haruka always wrote some not understandable lyrics." Azusa's father followed and laughed.
"Dad, mom!" Yui and Azusa exclaimed while Ui slowly walked toward her mother.
"Oh, both of you made your dad and I so worried." Yui's mother hugged Yui and Ui.
"Sorry, mom. I have a great news need to tell you!" Yui said happily.
"What's it, Yui?" Yui's father turned around to see her daughter.
"Ano ne, Ui is going out with Mugi-chan. They are dating each other!" Yui exclaimed right before Ui managed to stop her.
"Really?" Their mother looked at Ui who just nodded their head timidly.
"Oh, great! Now we have one more daughter. We have 4 daughters!" Yui's father said happily.
"Huh?" Mugi and Ui looked confusingly at him.
"Oh, it's just that your dad and I support your relationship. There's no need to worry about us. Keiichi,Yui, how many times I need to tell both of you be quiet in a hospital?" Yui and her father just smiled sheepishly at Yui's mother.
"Sorry." Both of them apologized.
"Sweet! Our parents knew each other for a long time and most of all, they were in a band just like us." Ritsu said happily.
"Ricchan, will we all be like our parents? Giving up music and disband HTT?" Yui asked and looking at Ritsu's with those serious looking eyes that contained tears inside them.
"Of course not! Yui, don't worry about it. As the leader of HTT, I will make sure HTT will last forever!" Ritsu pumped her fists into the air but soon received a huge pain from the injured shoulder.
"Really?" Yui asked once again.
"Yes, Yui. We will always be together." Azusa held Yui's hand and gave them a squeeze.
"Yes, HTT will always, always be HTT!"
"Huh?" everyone in the room staring at Yui, looking confused with the remark that she had just made.
"Yui, what do you mean?" Mio asked, sighing and shooking her head.
"Wait, don't you all feel a bit déjà-vu about what she said just now?" Mugi asked.
"Yes, Mugi-chan is right. I do feel like I said something before. When do I say it?"
"Why do you ask me? You are the one that keep saying those weird words." Ritsu said when Yui looked at her for an answer.
"All of you just try to recall what happen during your senior years, then you all will know what with this déjà vu thing." All of them turned back to see Nodoka was standing at there, smiling.
"Nodoka-chan." Yui ran over and hugged Nodoka.
"Hi, Yui. It's seems like everyone is feeling fine now." Nodoka gently patted Yui's hair.
"Ah, I remember now!" Ritsu soon yelped in pain again.
"Baka, how many times do I need to tell you don't move so energetically? You are a patient now." Mio sighed and tried to make Ritsu less excited.
"I remembered when Yui said those weird things. That day is our performance at the school festival during our senior year. After we sang a few songs then when Yui introduced us."
"And she exclaimed such weird things which made the whole crowd went silent for a few minutes." Mugi continued for Ritsu.
"Yeah, I remember now. It's very funny." Mio laughed, followed by Azusa and Nodoka. The rests were laughing, except Yui, who was still confused about it.
"Eh? Eh? What are you all laughing about?"
"Yui, sometimes it's better not to know." Nodoka smiled.
"Mou, Nodoka-chan, you bully." Yui pouted.
"Haha, your daughter is just like you, Keiichi, always said weird things."
"Your daughter are just like you also, Kouchirou, always being so reckless and careless about own self."
"Oh, come on, Haruka, don't say like your daughter don't act like you. Your daughter is just the female version of you, always shy, polite and always make sure Kouchirou doesn't cause trouble."
"Oh, Yuuji, you daughter also act like you, always so serious about everything but always so lonely." Kouchirou headlock Yuuji to tease him.
"Oh my, I think we better find a time to sit down and have a tea while we telling our children about our past."
"Touro, you always prepare tea for us." Haruka sighed.
"But I agree to him, we need to let Ritsu rest now, so let's go guys. We will just leave the girls here." Keiichi rustled Yui and Ui's hair and walked out from the room with his wife.
"Yeah, Keiichi is right. We need to go." Kouchirou and his wife followed Keiichi.
"All of you take care of yourself. We will be back if you need us. Remember if there anything happen, call us."
"Haruka, you are such a worrywart. I mean, come on, they are already 25 not 5." Touro smiled gently and walked out from the room.
"No, Touro. I agree with Haruka. We should tell the girls about what to do when something happen, or when they are hungry, or when they want to go home."
"Not you too, Yuuji. Both of you stop being so serious and get your ass out of that room if you don't want to see your wife's angry face."
"Oh, Minaru, I'm coming, don't get angry at me." Haruka rushed out to find his wife.
"Me too, Wait for me, Sakura. Don't get angry at me!" Yuuji rushed out from the room but didn't forget to close the door.
"Our parents are definitely the funniest person that I ever met." Ritsu said happily.
"Yeah, I never knew that our parents knew each other from the start." Azusa said happily with Yui snuggling against her.
"But I'm glad that Ricchan wake up." Yui said happily.
"Yeah, who knew that Ricchan will wake up with just that? Yui, how do you know it will work?" Mugi asked.
"I don't know. I just said it." Yui said, smiling.
"Huh? What happen just before I wake up?" Ritsu asked, looking at Mio. Mio blushed and look other place.
"Ricchan, Mio-chan kissed you right before you wake up, just like a prince kiss a princess!" Yui exclaimed one more time just before Mio could stop her.
"Hoho, so my precious Mio-chuan kissed me to just wake me up. I'm grateful!" Ritsu snuggles against Mio and gave Mio her trademark grin.
"S-shut u-up! I-it's not l-like I did it for you!" Mio turned around, trying not to look at Ritsu with her face red due to embarrassment.
"Hoho, Mio-chuan."
"Look, if you still going to tease me when I can't punch you like usual, I am not going to let you touch me for 3 whole months." Mio looked at Ritsu with the strict face of hers.
"Oh, sorry, Mio-sama!" Ritsu quickly apologized.
"That's better." Mio smiled and gently hugged Ritsu.
"Well, I'm glad that Ricchan is back with us. This mean for a celebration! When I say celebration, I mean cake and tea!"
"Yes, I agree with Yui-chan." Mugi smiled happily.
"Then I guess I better recover fast so that I can enjoy those cakes!" Ritsu laughed.
"Then you better don't do stupid things and follow the doctor's orders." Mio said with a sighed.
"I'm glad that all of us can be together once again, after so many years." Azusa said it with a small and happy smile on her face.
"Yeah, after what had happen between these 7 years, I'm really glad the HTT is back once again." Mugi sat down.
"Ya, about that, I'm sorry for leaving you guys without telling. But I'm back now! So let's play music once again."
"Yes, so make sure you better recover fast, Ritsu-senpai." Azusa shook her head.
"Aww, the serious Azunyan is back again." Yui snuggled against Azusa. Everyone laughed and soon they left to let Ritsu can rest.
Time pass fast, it's already been a few months after Ritsu recovered. One day, all of them were gathered at a café that Mugi's owned.
"Oh yeah, this tea is great as usual, as expected from our Mugi."
"Oh, Ricchan, you flatter me too much."
"Ritsu-senpai is right, Mugi-senpai. It's been a long time for all of us sit together and enjoy such wonderful tea."
"Yui, why are you keep looking at your watch?" Ritsu stared at Yui for a long time since Yui didn't join the conversation or eating the cake in front of her which was rather rare for her.
"E-eh? Nothing at all."
"Yui, Ritsu is right. You are acting all weird." Mio said after swallowing and feeding Ritsu.
"It's nothing at all. I just zoning off." Yui smiled sheepishly and quickly ate her cake.
"Ne, Mio."
"Yes, Ritsu."
"Are you free tomorrow night?" Mio nodded her head.
"Then, get ready in your best dress tomorrow night and I'm going to pick you up at 7pm."
"Woah, what happen?"
"I'm been invited to a dinner and I want to bring you there."
"Okay." Mio looked at Ritsu questionably, not knowing what's in her mind.
"Hey, guys. I need to go somewhere, so please help me bring Azunyan back to her apartment. Thanks a lot!" Yui dashed off before anyone could say a thing.
"Yui-chan is weird today." Mugi said and drank her tea.
"Ah, Mugi. What's on your finger?" Mio asked after noticing there's a ring on Mugi's ring finger.
"Oh, you mean this? I already proposed to Ui last week and she accepted."
"Maybe that's why Yui is acting weird today." Ritsu said.
"But I told one-chan about this and she seems fine with it. She even congrats us." Ui said after pouring tea into the cup.
"Then I can't think of anything. What do you think, Azusa?" Mio asked and looked at Azusa when she didn't get any response from the cat-like kouhai.
"Azusa, are you alright?"
"Mio-senpai." Azusa looked up from the cup of tea and her face was covered with tears.
"Eh, Azusa-chan." Uui quickly gave her some tissues.
"Azusa, why are you crying?" Ritsu seem panic.
"Azusa, tell us what bothering you?" Mio seem calm after gave Ritsu a slight punch.
"I-it's Y-yui. S-she seems like she doesn't want to spend time with me."
"Why do you say so?" Mugi asked while Ui gently patted Azusa's back.
"I-it's b-because s-she a-always f-find excuses whenever I want to hang out with her or go out on a date with her, S-she also keep being busy and she didn't tell me why. She j-just k-keep a-avoiding me and she d-dint pick up my calls for many times." Azusa began to cry one more time as she recalled how cold was Yui to her.
"I know Yui-chan love you very much so there's must be a reason for her to act so coldly."
"Ya, this is Yui that we are talking about. She just maybe up to something weird."
"Ritsu is right. So don't think too much, Azusa." Mio said with a sad smiled since she felt kind of pity of this kouhai of her.
"I really wonder what Yui up to." Mio thought and sighed. She hoped that Yui was up to something good. After a round of comforting Azusa who was still very scared that Yui was up to something bad, all of them went their home separately. Mio was currently staying with Ritsu at Ritsu's apartment which is located beside Yui's room, and Mugi was living at the same apartment too since she just bought the room so that Ui will be able to live with her after graduate from University.
"Mio, don't forget about tomorrow, okay?" Ritsu winked before she walked into her study room to finish some of her works.
"Actually what are you up to, Ritsu?" Mio asked confusingly.
"Let's just make this a surprise, okay? I will make sure you will be please about this, my princess." Ritsu quickly walked toward Mio and kissed Mio before walking back to her study room.
"O-okay." Mio sat down on the sofa.
"Just what is Ritsu up to? And what's wrong with Yui?" Mio thought before she fell asleep.
