Beyond The Bad End - Chapter 24 ~END
Chapter 24
Nana Kataoka’s POV
It’s been three years since the last time I returned to Japan. I’m now taking a detour before going to my parent’s house.
Manpukuken.
This is my favourite Chinese restaurant, I often went here during my high school years, college years, and until I started working abroad.
The third-generation owner of this restaurant is my close friend. Thanks to this friend, I was able to pursue my dream job as an interpreter.
Actually, I’m keeping my return to Japan a secret this time.
Haru-chi is always a calm and stoic person.
So came up with this mischievous plan because I really want to see his surprised face.
Standing in front of the restaurant, the delicious smell that tempts my appetite can be smelled.
The restaurant has not changed at all.
The red curtain is very nostalgic, it brings back memories.
As I slide open the wooden door with a rattling sound, the lively noise inside the restaurant can be heard.
When I enter the restaurant,
“Welcome!”
I am greeted by the owner’s wife cheerful voice.
“Ah! Nana-chan!”
“Chiisu! Long time no see, Maki-chan!”
“Long time no see! You look great!”
“Maki-chan! Your belly! A second child!?”
“Ufufufu. That’s right!”
“And this little girl over here, could it be, Aki-chan? She has grown up! Isn’t she four years old now? She exactly looks like you, Maki-chan!”
“Yeah, she has grown up, hasn’t she? She is in kindergarten already.”
“Uwaa~ You were really small the last time I saw you.”
“Ara ara! I thought I heard a commotion, but isn’t it you, Nana-chan”
“Natsumi-san! You look young as ever!”
“What are you talking about! I’m a grandmother now.”
While me, Maki-chan and Natsumi-san are noisily enjoying ourselves. A stoic man comes out from the kitchen.
“Hey Kataoka. Welcome back.”
“I’m back! Wait a minute, you don’t seem surprised at all, Haru-chi.”
“No, I’m really surprised. Your nails got shorter Kataoka. Have you stopped going hunting?”
“I never went hunting! I never use my nails to hunt!”
“So, what can I get you?”
“It’s been three years since the last time we met each other you know? You should be more excited! Oh well, I’ll get the Gyoza, Karaage and fried rice!”
“Sure thing. Ordering Karaage means you’ve stopped worrying about your weight, haven’t you?”
“Hey! You’re still as rude as ever!”
~THE END~






































Ok so they ended up together but why the timeskip? why no talk between the main couple? what is this lol
just timeskip and pretend its all good
though I honestly don’t mind the fact that they ended up together because due to the situation I could see people work it out. I think that ending was straight up sh!t. Like the pacing was honestly pretty good up to when everything caught up with the first chapter and even than it was somewhat decent but than it was bad once it got to Sudo leaving and than this time skip with legit no knowledge of anything that happened in between Maki moving in and her being pregnant with Haru’s second child. Plus the chapter was way to short and shouldn’t of been from the kind gals pov. She was a good person but it shouldn’t of been from her it should of been Maki’s
WTF was this? He takes her back even after she CHOSE to fuck the other dude instead of just paying him money or letting him be mad at her. What a fucking cuck simp and shit story.
Well she was essentially raped. I understand him taking her back because of that. But I hate how it jumped way to far ahead without showing anything like it didn’t show them talk it out work on things or anything so this ending isn’t even happy it’s bad there either should of been a few more chapters between just Maki and Haruno or a long chapter in between her moving in and this chapter because legit goes from her being mentally unstable and barely talking to Haru to being pregnant with his second child
