(Yunyun's POV)

After Harukin left the village, I went straight back home alone.

Right now, I was staring at the cute white plushy in my hands while lying on my bed. This was the first gift that Harukin gave me in my sixth birthday.

Tears fell from my eyes.

I am feeling lonely.

Why do you have to leave the village and left me here alone... Can you just become a normal child like us and spend our time playing together.

I know I'm being selfish right now...

But what's this feeling...

Whenever you're not by my side... I felt something in my ċhėst that's longing to be with you.

I don't understand! I don't understand! I don't understand! I don't understand!

My heart beats faster everytime I'm with you.

I don't know what's happening to me, so please... hurry up and come back home...

Several tears fell from my eyes as I closed them.

Am I crazy? Talking to a plushy thinking this as him.

I just look like an idiot right now...

I sat up, taking my handkerchief from the pocket of my skirt to wipe my tears, a folded piece of paper fell from it when I pulled my handkerchief.

I picked it up, opened then read it.

Dear Yunyun,

I have favor to ask from you, I want you to help on our magic item shop because I have a bad feeling that a disaster or something bad is going to happen there that will made our shop in the red financially before I even return back.

I already gave them the instructions written in a paper so just follow what's written there.

Your the only one I can ask because you're my only friend here in our village, so please.

Thank you.

Your friend,

Harukin

P.S. Look forward for my new recipe that I'm going to cook after I finish gathering the ingredients here in Axel. I'll be back soon.

Harukin...

I calmed down after I read his letter.

*Sigh*

"It can't be helped then."

I said as I hid his letter on my drawer besides my bed.

---

I arrived in front of their magic item shop.

Since Harukin is away, I was very shy to enter inside. I even hesitated just to touch the door entrance.

Suddenly, in the distance, I saw Megumin walking towards here.

What I'm gonna do... She's coming here...

I looked around, I ran fast on the side of their shop and hid there.

I sighed in relief.

"That was close..."

"Yunyun..."

"Kyaaaah!" I was surprised when I heard a voice besides me.

I noticed it was Megumin and she was staring at me with tired expression.

"Megumin! What are you doing here?"

I asked.

"That should be what I'm asking to you. This is my family's magic item shop, so what are you doing here?"

Megumin asked me.

"Harukin asked me help with your magic item shop."

I answered shyly while fidgeting.

"Then, why are you hiding... come inside already."

---

When we entered inside their shop, I saw Megumin's father Hyoizaburoo reading something on a piece of paper while her mother Yuiyui taking care of Komekko.

Hyoizaburoo glanced to his daughter Megumin and said his plan professionally.

"Today's schedule should be Harukin shift in tending the shop but he's away right now so... Megumin together with me will tend the store for now."

Uncle... aren't Harukin tends the shop everyday while you work on the back.

Suddenly, someone slided the door and peeked inside the shop.

"Umm... Is Harukin there?"

It was a beautiful young woman with well-endowed brėȧst who was asking from outside. Just like them, she has dark brown hair and deep crimson eyes wearing a witch costume.

Megumin went towards her and immediately closed the door with mad expression.

"Megumin! That was a customer! Why did you closed her a door." Uncle Hyoizaburoo loudly said.

"Dad... what's this dark emotions that I'm feeling right now when I saw that woman with two humongous mountain looking for my twin brother." Megumin said with jealousy.

"Megumin..." I mumbled.

Uncle Hyoizaburoo went towards the entrance and opened the door.

"I'm sorry about my daughter's behavior. She's in delicate age right now." he apologized.

"No, it's okay... I just want to take the thing that I ordered from Harukin." the young woman replied.

"Then, please come inside."

Uncle Hyoizaburoo invited her to come inside,

While the young woman was walking inside to the counter, Megumin was glaring at woman huge brėȧst.

"Megumin... that's rude, you know." I said to her.

Uncle Hyoizaburoo spoke to the young woman,

"Then, what did you ordered from my son? He's went out to Axel for business trip right now... I apologized for that."

"Wow! For someone at his age to be doing things like that... He's really amazing." The young woman praised Harukin.

Uncle Hyoizaburoo just smiled at young woman response.

"Well... anyway, I ordered a birthday cake from him so I'm came back here to take it now." the young woman spoke her business.

Sweat appeared on Uncle Hyoizaburoo's temple and said,

"Uuum... Young Miss, this shop is magic item store, not a cake shop."

"He said to me that he will finished baking the cake today so If I'm going to claim it, I should show this order receipt to the one who's managing the shop right now."

The young woman explained while showing to them the receipt.

Aunt Yuiyui took the receipt and read what's written on it,

"She's right, this is Harukin's signature... It's written here that the cake she ordered are in consumable cabinet, box number 11."

I looked around to find the cabinet for consumables,

"Ah! I found it."

I went towards the big cabinet for consumables, I opened it and looked what's inside.

I saw huge box with number 11 tag placed on it.

I carried it as it has a very light weight then placed it on the counter, in front of the young woman.

The young woman opened the box and saw a beautiful and delicious looking cake inside,

"This cake looks good and beautiful."

She took a small part of the cake using her fingers and putted it on her mouth.

Her eyes widened then she mȯȧnėd with blissful expression,

"Hmmmm... So soft and delightfully sweet..." she reacted satisfyingly.

Suddenly her expression became serious then took out a large sack of coins from her bag, she placed in the counter,

"Here's my payment. Keep the change..."

She said as she placed back the cover of the cake box , she closed it and carried it whole.

"...Young Miss, I think you paid to much."

Uncle Hyoizaburoo got a little guilty,

The young woman looked back and glared at him,

"No! It's for Harukin. So shut up and take my money." she spoke with serious tone.

Uncle Hyoizaburoo just nodded at her.

She went outside the shop after she claimed and took what she ordered.

"What was that just now, Honey?"

Uncle Hyoizaburoo asked his wife.

"I don't know..."

Aunt Yuiyui answered.

I'm became more confused on what's Harukin selling on their shop.

Suddenly, another customers entered inside the shop.

This time the customers are a party group of adventures consisting of four beautiful and young women with fully grown figure,

"Is Harukin here? We came here to claim the weapons we ordered to him."

Said by the blond female knight.

Uncle Hyoizaburoo was trembling and spoke,

"I said, this is a magic item shop, not a weapon shop..."

Uncle got a headache right now.
