I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

After saying that, Yuhaka rushed towards Lappland and Texas, who looked terrified.

............... ..

After a chaotic scene, Texas and Lappland, covered in dust and wearing somewhat tattered clothes, sat obediently on their knees in front of the sulking Yhwach, bowing their heads and apologizing to him like schoolchildren admitting their mistake:

"I'm sorry, we were wrong. ×2"

After hearing Texas and Lappland admit their mistakes, Yhwach nodded and then said to the two of them:

"Now, the two of them hug each other and make up."

"Uh……"

Texas turned to look at Lappland with a pained expression, while Lappland raised her eyebrows and opened her arms as if to say, "Come here and give me a hug, Texas~". Seeing Lappland's smug look made Texas's eyes twitch.

Texas took a deep breath and pretended she'd been hugged by a silly dog. Then, Texas and Lappland hugged each other, looking like old friends reunited. With a comical smile on her face, Lappland whispered in Texas's ear:

"I've always wanted to see that expression on your face, that look of disgust mixed with resignation, hahaha~"

"Shut up, you stupid dog!"

Texas looked at Lappland with a disgusted expression and said this. Yuhaka, naturally noticing the situation, slapped the ground with his large tail, making a loud thud, and said somewhat angrily to the two of them:

"Arguing is not allowed!"

Texas: "No, we didn't argue!"

Lappland: "Love!"

………….

After being forcibly reconciled by Yuhaka, the two held hands and headed home with Yuhaka.

On the way, Texas and Lappland walked down the street like two older sisters taking their younger sister out to play, each holding one of Yuhaka's hands. As they walked, Lappland looked at Texas with a playful smile and said:

"I never expected this, Texas, that you'd have a child after all this time."

Hearing Lappland's words, Texas looked at her speechlessly and said:

"Did Youyou damage your brain? How old am I? How could I possibly have a child this big?"

Hearing Texas's words, Lappland was also taken aback for a moment, but seeing Yhaka beside her, who looked very similar to Texas except for the big tail, she said:

"Hmm? If that's the case, then how do you explain the fact that this little guy looks a lot like you?"

This question about Lappland has been puzzling Texas for a long time. Why does Yhaka look so much like her? Texas even suspects that Yhaka might be her father's or mother's illegitimate child. Maybe she should go to the hospital for a paternity test sometime.

However, Texas turned to look at Lappland and said:

"So, what about you? Are you still homeless?"

Lappland looked at Texas with a smile and said:

"Hmm? Me? I work at a pharmaceutical company now. The people there are great, all of them are talented."

Hearing Lappland's words, Texas snorted coldly and said:

"Hmph, a pharmaceutical company that hires assassins, doesn't seem like a reputable company..."

Before Texas could finish speaking, she suddenly remembered meeting the Rhodes Island pharmaceutical company last time. A speechless expression crossed her face; it seemed that Rhodes Island didn't exactly look like a legitimate pharmaceutical company…

Seeing Texas's change in expression, Lappland smiled with pleasure. Without even guessing, Lappland could roughly tell what Texas was thinking.

And so, the two of them returned to the apartment where Exusiai and the others lived, with Ehaka in tow. Lappland introduced herself to Exusiai and the others, who were her Texas colleagues, and said:

"My name is Lappland. I am Texas's husband and the little one's father. Nice to meet you, Texas's friends."

With a mocking smile, Lappland said this to Exusiai and the others.

Chapter 130 [Texas in Tears]

"........."

Upon hearing Lappland's words, the Penguin Logistics members present fell silent. Exusiai looked like she was in a daze, Croissant had a blank expression, and Sora, who had just returned, had lost the light in her eyes and looked as if she had died.

Ehka, on the other hand, had an "OwO?" look on her face because she didn't know about the relationship between Lappland and Texas. However, when she heard Lappland claim to be Texas's husband, Ehka still had an "OwO?" expression.

Texas, who was standing to the side with a headache, rubbed her forehead and said:

"Have you forgotten that we picked Youyou up from outside? And how could two girls possibly have a child..."

Upon hearing Texas's words, Exusiai and the others present also came to their senses.

Right, how could girls possibly have children together?

Meanwhile, Sora secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself, but then she suddenly remembered that Texas didn't seem to have denied the relationship between the two of them, did she?

"Then...then...the relationship between Texas-senpai and Miss Lappland—"

Before he could finish speaking, Texas put a Pocky stick in her mouth, lowered her head, and said:

"It's just a tragic fate, nothing more..."

Hearing Texas's words, Sora breathed a sigh of relief again. However, before Sora could fully relax, Lappland, who was standing to the side, looked at Texas with a pleased expression and said:

"That's really harsh, Texas, but even so, I still love you very much~"

Sora, blushing, covered her mouth and said nervously:

"Deep love, love, love—!?"

Ignoring Texas's darkening expression, Lappland continued:

"Oh, right, we were hugging each other not long ago."

“Hug, hug, hug—!!”

Hearing Lappland's words, Kong's face turned bright red and he trembled all over. Texas, who was standing next to him, picked up a few Pocky sticks and stuffed them into Lappland's mouth, saying:

"Shut up, you stupid dog."

Lappland then obediently shut her mouth, chewing on the few Pocky sticks in her mouth. Texas sighed, a bit annoyed, and said:

"It's just that she made up with that child, Youyou..."

Upon hearing Texas's words, Exusiai and the others present also showed expressions of understanding. Some time ago, Exusiai and Croissant were mistaken by Yhaka for arguing because they were playing around, so Yhaka "physically made up" with them.

Therefore, with Ehaka around, Exusiai and the others no longer dared to go too far in front of Ehaka.

…………

After dropping Texas and Yuhaka off at their apartment, Lappland said goodbye to them, explaining that she had other things to do before leaving.

"Hmm, isn't that friend named Lappland coming for lunch?"

Exusiai, sitting on the sofa nearby, watched TV and said this to Texas, who had just seen Lappland off. Texas, who had just closed the door, looked at Exusiai, shook her head, and said:

She said she had other things to do and wouldn't stay for dinner.

Upon hearing Texas's words, Exusiai nodded in understanding and continued watching her TV, while Texas went to the kitchen to watch Yhaka cooking.

Then Texas saw Yohaka making pasta. Watching Yohaka skillfully stir-fry the drained pasta in a pan, Texas was a little puzzled and said:

"Youyou, who taught you how to make this pasta?"

In response to Texas's question, Yuhaka used his big tail to pull out a book from the dimensional hole. Texas realized that the book was the cookbook she had bought for Yuhaka last time. Texas remembered that Yuhaka hadn't cooked it before.

"You'll be able to do it after watching it once?"

Yuhaka nodded in agreement, then added:

"Understand, do, try, make."

Upon hearing Yuhaka's words, Texas nodded with a confused look, after all, she wasn't very good at cooking either.

Soon, Yuhaka made the same special tomato and bacon spaghetti that he had given to Lappland for Texas and the others. When Texas and the others saw Yuhaka's special tomato and bacon spaghetti, their first impression was the same as Lappland's: "So red!"

Croissant picked up some pasta made by Yohaka with her chopsticks, smelled it, and then said with a surprised expression:

"Oh! At first I thought the pasta was so red because of the chili sauce, but I didn't expect it to be tomato sauce?"

Exusiai, who had overheard Croissant's words, was also taken aback. Looking at the spaghetti on her plate with a surprised expression, she said:

"Hmm? Is this pasta red because of the tomato sauce?"

Croissant scratched his head and said:

"Well... I think so, it's probably because of the ketchup that Youyou made herself."

Texas, standing nearby, picked up an Italian pasta with her chopsticks and said to them:

"Isn't the taste more important than the flavor itself?"

As she spoke, Texas put the spaghetti into her mouth. Exusiai and Croissant exchanged a glance and agreed. Then, just like Sora, the two of them used chopsticks to pick up spaghetti and put it into their mouths.

The four of them immediately brightened up, and Croissant exclaimed:

"Oh, it really is the special tomato sauce that Youyou used to make the omelet last time. It maintains the perfect golden ratio of sour and sweet as always, and it doesn't affect the taste of the pasta because it's too sweet or too sour."

Exusiai, standing to the side, picked up a piece of herb-eating dragon bacon from the special tomato and bacon spaghetti and said:

"Yeah, and the bacon here has a unique aroma, completely different from the smoky bacon I've had before. The taste and texture are much better than other bacon, aren't you right, Texas?!"

Exusiai, who was looking towards Texas, was startled when she suddenly saw Texas eating Yuhaka's special tomato and bacon spaghetti while shedding tears. As Texas's longtime partner, Exusiai knew very well that Texas had never shed tears for anything, not even because of injury or other reasons. She had never seen Texas cry before.

But today, Texas was so shocked that she cried while eating Yuhaka's pasta that Exusiai was completely stunned. Could it be that Yuhaka's cooking was so delicious that it made Texas cry?!

Chapter 131 [Recalling the Past in Texas]

In a manor, Texas looked at the familiar place with a puzzled expression and whispered:

"here it is….."

Looking at the familiar place, Texas couldn't help but remember where this place was.

"This is... my old home?!"

As soon as Texas finished speaking, she saw a familiar figure pass by. Texas opened her eyes wide and looked at the familiar voice, saying:

"That's... Youyou?!"

Texas felt a strong sense of familiarity as the little girl who resembled Yuuka ran past her. Looking at the fluffy tail behind her, Texas knew the child wasn't Yuuka, but rather…

"That's...me when I was a child?"

Watching the little girl who looked remarkably like Yu-Yu pick up a ball from the ground and run towards Texas, Texas began to recall a scene from some time ago.

Seeing the little girl who looked just like her running towards her, Texas turned slightly to let her pass. Soon, Texas saw a familiar figure, causing her eyes to widen slightly as she exclaimed:
