1: Hot Spring Trip
「This is ......」
As soon as I got off the bus, Sophia was next to Naoto and muttered in surprise.
What a fantastic cityscape, set apart from modern Japan.
On the left and right of the river, beautiful buildings with tiled roofs lined up, reminding me of the Meiji and Taisho era.
Most of the buildings are shops or inns, with signs like ●●ya and ●●an. The street lamps lining the roads are also old-fashioned gas lamps, and while they are not turned on during the day, they will brighten up the town beautifully at night.
Green mountains in the background. In the fall, the fall foliage would make the scenery even more beautiful.
Naoto was also lost for words at the nostalgic scene in front of him.
I had done some preliminary searching on the internet, but when I saw it, it was even more gorgeous than what I had searched for on the internet.
Aju couldn't believe a place like this still existed in Japan.
「Naoto」
Sophia grabbed Naoto's right hand.
His heart was beating very fast, but Naoto waited for Sophia's next words without changing his expression.
Sophia pointed at the cityscape and said in a nervous voice.
「This is the image I had of Japan before I came to Japan.」
「Hey...isn't that too old!? According to the official website of the hot spring town, it looks the same as it did 100 years ago!」
「When I was a kid, I used to watch Japanese TV dramas set in the cityscape of an orphanage. If I remember correctly, there was a three-letter hiragana title」
「Oh, that」
It was a TV drama series that was produced around the end of the Showa era and became very popular in Japan. Of course, I've heard that it was well-received overseas and aired in various countries.
「I thought those buildings lined up in some big cities, and the scenery of these kinds of cities spread in other cities. I learned that there are very few cities like this left.」
「Japan is a country with many natural disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons, so it's only natural that there are old buildings are destroyed.」
「A little disappointing. However, I feel like I've met the Japan I imagined.」
Sophia put her strength into her hand that grasped Naoto's.
「Naoto, thank you. Thanks to Naoto, I was able to see the beautiful scenery of Japan.」
「......The journey has just begun, so it's too early to say thank you. Let's check in early and take a walk around the hot spring town. It looks like there are many delicious specialty products.」
「It's very exciting!」
「The food seems to be quite luxurious, so please look forward to that as well. The hot spring is also good」
「Japanese hot spring for the first time! It's my first time trying food at a ryokan! It's very exciting!」
Holding hands, the two of them started walking down the street of the hot spring town.
From the outside, they would only look like a harmonious couple.
A little pain in my chest... Sophia and I are indeed a couple, but this trip is the last trip to make memories for me and Sophia before parting ways.
Naoto remembered what happened a week ago, which was the reason for his current vacation together with Sophia.
