After finishing our talk with the sisters, Erika and the three girls went with them to the church.
I was in my room packing my magic bag.
A knock came from the low position of the door, so I paused what I was doing and answered.
Who entered was Fia, dressed in a black gothic lolita outfit, smiling.
Right behind her came Leah, in a similarly frill-light gothic lolita outfit, waving with one hand while laughing as she entered.
"You heard from Erika-chan? You're leaving already?"
"Yeah, I judged it's better to hurry."
"That's good, but it's a little lonely…"
Leah said that and jumped at me, catching me with both hands.
I moved both hands to her bottom to lift her, and Leah wrapped both arms around my neck, burying her face in my neck while purring as she sniffed.
A sunny scent came from Leah's wavy hair.
Fia tilted her head slightly and watched Leah's reaction with a smile.
Still holding Leah, I sat on the bed and said to Fia,
"Sorry for the suddenness."
