やさしいかなしい、かぞくのはなし

[rikoren]

【？？？】　ただいま～。　あァ、疲れた………
???: I'm home~ Aah, I'm pooped...



【灯吾】　………お帰り
Tougo: ...Welcome back.

【？？？】　あれ、灯吾くん、まだ起きてたんだ。　こんな遅くまで勉強かい？
???: Oh, Tougo-kun, you're still up. Still studying this late at night?



【灯吾】　別に、ちょっと考え事してたんだよ。　お疲れ、何か食うだろ？　作るよ
Tougo: No, I was just doing some thinking. You've had a long day, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you.

【？？？】　あれ、夕飯残ってないのかい？
???: Huh, there's no leftovers?

【灯吾】　全部食ったよ、俺と灯奈で
Tougo: Hina and I ate it all.

【？？？】　あ、僕が作ったの全部食べてくれたんだ。　わー、嬉しいなぁ
???: Ah, you finished my home-cooked meal! Wow, that makes me happy to hear.



【灯吾】　不味かったけど、勿体ないからな。　お前味付け薄いんだよ、いつも言ってるのに直んねえんだから
Tougo: It was terrible, but we didn't wanna waste it. I keep saying you're not putting enough seasoning, but you never fix it.

【？？？】　うーん、ゴメンね、遠慮がちな味しかつけられなくてね………　性分なのかな、僕の
???: Mmmm, sorry, I keep giving it a reserved flavor...It's just my nature.

【灯吾】　何がだよ、夜市。………ホラ、出来たよ
Tougo: What's that supposed to mean, Yaichi? ...Here, it's done.



【夜市】　ありがとう。　やっぱり、灯吾くんは手際がいいなあ。　僕の息子とは思えないね
Yaichi: Thanks. You're really good at this, Tougo-kun. It's hard to believe you're my son.

【灯吾】　………食いながらこぼすなよ。　たく、ホント世話のやける親父で困るよ
Tougo: ...Don't complain while you're eating. Jeez, it's a problem if my own dad's jealous of my housekeeping.

【夜市】　ああ、ゴメンゴメン。　片付けはちゃんとやっておくから、灯吾くんは寝ていいよ。　明日も学校だろう？
Yaichi: Aah, sorry sorry. I'll do the cleaning up, so you can go sleep. You've got school tomorrow, right?



Tougo: .......

【夜市】　大丈夫、もう皿は割らないって灯奈ちゃんとも約束したからね
Yaichi: Don't worry, I promised Hina-chan I wouldn't break any more dishes.



【灯吾】　…………………そんなの、信用しねえよ
Tougo: .......I'm not so confident about that.

【夜市】　…………………そうかい。　もしかして、何か話？
Yaichi: .......I see. Is there something you want to talk about?



Tougo: .......

【夜市】　いいよ、何だい？
Yaichi: You can tell me. What's up?

Tougo: .......

【夜市】　言いにくい話？
Yaichi: Is it something hard to talk about?

【灯吾】　……………………………………親父は、朱音の事もう覚えてない？
Tougo: ..............Dad, do you still remember Akane?



【夜市】　え？　朱音ちゃん？　忘れる訳ないじゃないか、僕の奥さんなんだから
Yaichi: Eh? Akane-chan? She's pretty hard to forget, being my wife an' all.



【灯吾】　…………………だよな………
Tougo: .......You got a point there...

【夜市】　………？　どうしたんだい、急に。　灯吾くんが朱音ちゃんの話をするなんて珍しいな
Yaichi: ...? Hey, what's the matter? It's pretty unusual for you to bring her up so suddenly.

【灯吾】　ちょっと、気になる事があったんだ。　けど、やっぱり………
Tougo: Something's been bothering me recently. But, she really...

【夜市】　ん？
Yaichi: Mm?

【灯吾】　やっぱり朱音、自分で勝手にいなくなったんだな
Tougo: She really did leave us on her own.

【夜市】　…………………灯吾くん………
Yaichi: .......Tougo-kun...

【灯吾】　俺達のこと、捨ててったんだな。　やっぱり
Tougo: She abandoned us. I knew it.



【夜市】　………朱音ちゃんは、空環の山で、「神隠し」に遭ったんだ、って言ったよね。　むかし
Yaichi: ...I said before that Akane-chan got "spirited away", up on Utsuwa Mountain. A long time ago.

Tougo: .......

【夜市】　少なくとも、僕は今もそう思ってるけど
Yaichi: At least, that's what I think now.



【灯吾】　…………………俺は………そう、思わない
Tougo: .......I...don't think the same.

Yaichi: .......

【灯吾】　………そんなんじゃ、納得できないんだよ………
Tougo: ...I just, can't accept that...

【夜市】　…………………だから、灯吾くんは、今も朱音ちゃんを探してくれているんだよね。　彼女が消えた、祭りの夜に
Yaichi: .......So that's why you're still looking for Akane-chan, even now. She disappeared, the night of the festival.

Tougo: .......

【夜市】　………確かに僕も、朱音ちゃんは、別の街で別の暮らしをしているんじゃないかって思う事はある。　でも………
Yaichi: ...I've wondered that too, of course--if maybe she's living another life, in another town. But...

【灯吾】　…………………でも………？
Tougo: .......But...?



【夜市】　…………………いや、やめよう。　こんな話、今更だ。　こんな事を言ったら、怒るかもしれないけど。　灯吾くんと灯奈ちゃんがこの家にいてくれるだけで、僕は十分なんだよ
Yaichi: .......No, forget it. It's too late for this. Talking about it might make me angry. As long as you and Hina-chan are in this house, I'm plenty satisfied.

Tougo: .......



【夜市】　ごちそうさま。　美味しかったよ、ありがとう
Yaichi: Thanks for the meal. It was delicious.



【灯吾】　………お前、人が良すぎ
Tougo: ...You're too nice.

【夜市】　………そんな事ないよ。
Yaichi: ...I wouldn't say that.

【夜市】　さて、灯奈ちゃんの寝顔でも、見てくるかな。　灯吾くんも、あんまり遅くまで起きてちゃ駄目だよ。………おやすみ
Yaichi: Well, I'm gonna go check up on Hina-chan. Don't stay up too late. ...Good night.



Tougo: .......



【灯吾】　…………………俺は………そんな風に、思えない
Tougo: .......I...can't think like that.

【灯吾】　アイツの事………許せない。　だって、アイツらは………
Tougo: I won't...forgive her. Because, they're...

【灯吾】　でも………もしかして、違う、理由があるのか………？
Tougo: But...could it be, there's another reason...?
