Chapter 32: A completely messed-up date«Here I am, Ana... sorry for being late...!» Hakuto pants, out of breath.
He ran from his house to the Ashiya Rock Garden at full speed, without telling anyone.
Kagura’s treatment worked wonders—the pain is almost gone.
He could’ve asked for a ride, but the girls hate Ana.
So he lied.
«I’m out with Itsu. She wants to go to a maid café... you know, she has this maid fetish but is too shy to go alone...»
That’s what he told them before sneaking out.
Just like they agreed, Ana waits for him at the start of the trail.
She’s wearing a fancy red dress—short, tight, and low-cut—with tall white heels.
Not the best choice for a mountain hike.
Hakuto can’t help but stare.
«Late...? No, you’re actually five minutes early,» she says with a bright smile.
When Hakuto gets to her, Ana grabs his hand right away.
Their fingers intertwine, palm to palm.
He blushes — not because it’s too bold, but because it’s so casual.
After all, just a few nights ago, she had hinted he should lick her down there.
So holding hands shouldn’t shock him...
Yet it does.
If she had jumped on him, he’d be less surprised.
Still, he doesn’t pull away.
They walk into the rocky trail, hand in hand.
The path is steep and rough, full of jagged stones and uneven ground.
Clouds cover the sky, hiding the moon.
Only a few dim trail lights help them see.
«Ashiya has so many nice spots to hang out... why here, in the middle of the mountains?» Hakuto asks.
He doesn’t care about the answer.
He just wants to break the silence.
He expected Ana to be chatty like always, but she hasn’t said a word.
Her face is red, and her eyes are lowered.
It’s strange — that shy look doesn’t match her daring outfit.
«I saw it in the tourist guide before coming here... it said the place has a romantic vibe. If I’m not wrong...»
Ana glances around,
How long have they been there...?
No one noticed a thing.
Not even Ana — she looks genuinely shocked and scared.
One of the shadowy figures steps forward — towering over the others.
A two-and-a-half-meter wall of muscle, dressed in sharp black clothes.
«F-Frank Callhan... what are you doing here...?!» Ana stammers, her voice shaking.
«The boss was right to tell me to keep an eye on you,» Frank says, his voice deep and dumb-sounding, like a damn caveman.
«He knew you’d disobey and act like an idiot, going solo without asking me first...»
The giant’s eyes shift to Yuzu and Rika.
«...Still, I guess your impulsive move turned out to be useful.»
Then he looks at the others behind him — tall, lean figures in black suits.
«Kill Chantal Carreaux and the boy with her!»
