Awakening

When Lei Yin, Naoko, and Amy came out of Haneda Airport, it was already three in the afternoon.

After Naoko opened the door to her apartment, she saw, in addition to Aiko, two other girls in the living room. One was Asami, and the other one, though she did not recognize, must be one of Aiko's college classmate.

"Sister you're back." Seeing Naoko came into the room, Aiko was very pleased and got up from the couch and walked toward her.

After putting down her small luggage to the floor, Naoko smiled and said: "We just arrived from the airport. Hello." She said the last word toward the two college students. From several close friends in high school, only Asami who gained admission at the same University as Aiko. While Ryoko and Ai each was admitted to different Universities. Although they have been separated, these few girls often played together every now and then.

Followed closely behind Naoko was Lei Yin, who carried a big backpack on his bag and pulled Amy's hand with his right hand. Inside this big backpack, in addition to the majority of their luggage, there were also various souvenirs from Takeda and Yoshikawa that they bought when they strolled the local attractions while Lei Yin and others were there.

Seeing him also come with her, Aiko unconsciously revealed a complex look.

After putting that big backpack down, Lei Yin said to her: "Aiko, long time no see, how have you been?"

Afraid to look at him in the eyes, Aiko bowed her head and said: "I am fine, how about you?"

"Not bad." With that, he said hello to Asami and the other girl who he did not recognize.

Looking at his face, which both seemed familiar and somewhat unfamiliar, a burst of ripple suddenly appeared in Aiko's heart.

Looking back, apart from seeing him once at the Hospital where her sister temporary stayed, she had not seen him for nearly six months. But she heard that he was studying at Teikyo University.

After not seeing him for half a year, the lines on his face seemed more mature. If he put on a suit, no one would know he was still a first-year college student.

At this time, she heard her good friend asked him: "Gennai Masashi, is this little girl your sister?"

"No, her guardian is busy with work so she called me to temporarily take care of her. Amy, come, say hello to aunt Asami."

"Hey, that is not funny." Asami glared and rolled her eyes at him.

"Rest assured, she only knows English."

"What, she is not Japanese?" Asami was somewhat surprised to see the little girl with a very obvious Asian descent.

"This matter is somewhat complicated. In simple terms, although her nationality is Swiss, her grandmother is a Korean, so her father is a mixed blood. Then her father took a Singaporean woman who gave birth to her. Therefore, she looked relatively closer to Asian people."

The more they saw her, the more Asami and the other girl felt that the little girl was cute, and could not help but want to touch her face.

Amy immediately hid behind Lei Yin.

"She seems to afraid of us," Asami commented.

"She used to have autism; although it is much better now, she still has some resistance to strangers. But, as long as she gets to know you, it will be all right."

"A pity." Hearing that she has autism, the other girl cannot help but show motherly concern.

Naoko said to Lei Yin: "After a long fly journey on the plane, Amy must be tired. I am going to tidy up her room, wait here for me, okay?"

"I know, go on."

After Naoko left, Aiko could not help but ask: "Is this little girl going to stay here?"

Lei Yin nodded his head, "I need to go on a trip today, so I want Amy to stay here for a couple of days. When I come back, I will bring her back to my home."

"Didn't you just get off a plane?"

"Yes, there is something I need to take care of."

With that, he knelt down to the little girl and said: "Kid, be obedient and listen to Naoko's words, okay? I will soon be back to pick you up."

"Lei…." The little girl's eyes slowly teared up.

"Don't cry, I'll be back soon. Remember to listen to Naoko, understand?"

Amy nodded her head and tightly hugged his neck.

After a while, Naoko stepped down from the second floor, "Masashi, Amy's room is ready, you can take her up to rest."

"Okay." Lei Yin picked the little girl up and followed Naoko upstairs.

After they walked away, Aiko's classmate asked: "Aiko, who is that guy? His English is very good."

Aiko looked at the big backpack that he placed on the ground and said: "He is my sister's fiance."

Led by a man in a black suit, Lei Yin arrived in front of a small manned aircraft.

That man said: "Mr. Gennai, this is the airplane as per your request; we have filled its fuel. Moreover, director Sakurai wanted me to tell you that, if you want bigger aircraft please feel free to say so, she will definitely meet your request."

"No need, this plane size is fine. Please give my thanks to Miss Sakurai.

"I will deliver your message."

After sitting on the pilot seat, Lei Yin carefully looked at the various instruments. Fortunately, this was an old type plane, otherwise, he wouldn't know how to operate it because the last time he piloted an aircraft was twenty years ago.

Although it took him a bit long to start it, but after he took it to the runway to take off, the plane finally ascended the sky.

Looking from below, the man breathed a sigh of relieve.

If something happened to that man, he would die a tragic death.
