Ai's POV
July 12, 2014
Ayanokouji Residence"Karuizawa-san, do you know where Ayanokouji-kun is?" I asked as I came to the living room and didn't find him anywhere. As a result, I came upon Karuizawa-san who was drinking coffee.
"Oh, Hoshino-san, you don't have any work today?" Karuizawa-san asked.
"Ah, well, Ichigo-san told me to skip some practice today so I can take care of my kids, but I know it's because of me." I sighed. "He really is so concerned for me. I'm doing just fine! Anyway, what about Ayanokouji-kun?"
"Both he and Matsuo went somewhere to meet two people." she answered.
"Two people?"
"I don't know. That dumbass can get really vague sometimes. No, scratch that, make that often." she said with an exhausted sigh. "He did say that he was going to try recruiting them to the Coalition."
"Really? There are more time travelers?" I asked.
"No. If they are time travelers, they would have approached us already or at least contacted us. Since Kiyotaka is the one having to actively recruit them, that actually limits who I think is going to be recruited..." she began to think about it as I sat down on the couch opposite to her, coffee cup in hand as well.
"Do you have people in mind, Karuizawa-san?"
"There's one person. Ishigami Kyou." she said as she drank her coffee. "I'm near certain that Kiyotaka is going to recruit that guy."
"Is he another genius?" I asked, and she chuckled.
"Yeah. The guy was a menace during our 3rd year and their 2nd year. I felt absolutely terrible to the other 2nd year classes back then. The only person who could even try to fight him was in his class, so everyone else was screwed. It was the widest gap of points I've ever seen between Class-A and Class-B. It was really sad. No wonder the guy resorted to competing with the likes of Kiyotaka, Sakayanagi-san, and Ryuuen." she said
"Wow, ANHS sounds really tough. Ugh, do I have to actually study before we actually get to the school?" I groaned at the thought of studying. "You guys are lucky, Karuizawa-san! You don't have to study since you all learned this already!"
"What do you mean, Hoshino-san? I was around 37 years old when I time traveled back to the past, you know? You really think I'm going to remember everything I've learned in high school?"
"But you still have a head start, unlike me!" I whined jokingly, then took a sip of my coffee as well. "Anyway, 37, huh? That was older than I thought..."
I then asked the question I wanted to ask her since we moved in here.
"Hey, Karuizawa-san, how did you manage to raise your twins?" I asked. She smiled gently, as if expecting me to ask that question for a while now.
"Haha, it took you long enough." she said. "Are you sure you should be asking me that question? I mean, our twins are wildly different in personality after all. Plus, your twins will be much easier to raise given their unique situation."
"I just... wanted to get some advice from you, based on your experience." I said. Before she can say anything, though, another person joined in on our conversation.
"What are you two discussing about?" we heard the sound of a wheelchair coming, and we turned to see Lelouch-san's sister, Nunnally, being towed towards us by their personal maid, Sayoko.
"Oh, hello, Nunnally-chan." Karuizawa-san greeted her.
"Hello, Karuizawa-san." she greeted back. "I'm curious as to what the two of you were talking about."
