Ryota's POV.

Ryota: Alright. My luggage is ready and good to go!

After going home from school, I immediately prepared my luggage for the one week trip to my grandparents' hometown.

Then I put my other things back in place, until I saw a pendant or a locket of some sorts.

(A/N: I'll be using Raku's locket as the inspiration.)

Ryota: What's this? A locket? It also has a keyhole.

Ryota: Since when did I have this?

Ryota: Hmmmmmmm................

Ryota: The key must be in here........somewhere..........

I took the chance to inspect every nook and cranny in my room but I didn't find anything.

Ryota: Huh.......

Ryota: Strange...........

Ryota: There is no key in here.

Ryota: Also, the locket is too big.

Ryota: My guess is this locket hides something from me.

Ryota: I just don't know what it is.

Then I put it on my study table and then I borrowed some hair clips from Saya to try and pick the lock.

But to no avail.

Ryota: *sigh*

Ryota: The keyhole is just probably a design.

Ryota: But still............

Ryota: Is this locket really mine? Or did mom or dad owned this?

Ryota: I'd better ask them.

I immediately fixed my room again and then I went out as I asked my mom and dad about the locket.

Koharu: A locket?

Tatsuya: I don't have that kind of locket.

Then he pulls out a different locket with a different shape.

He opened it to reveal a picture of him and mom, then the other picture is our family photo, Mom, Dad, Saya and me.
