Chapter 3: The Vacation and the Trip

♠

It was the end of July, and the time of year when many students entered summer break. Every year around this time, it had become tradition for the Aterazawa and Katsuragi families to visit Spa Resort Hawaiian Z, a resort facility in the south of the prefecture.

It was a two-day and one-night family trip. Due to some unavoidable circumstances, my parents wouldn’t be coming, so it’d turned into a three person trip comprising the Katsuragi mother-daughter duo and myself.

On the day of the trip, we met up early at the Katsuragis’ carport and all got into the car. We took Miss Ayako’s car, but after some discussion, it was decided that I would drive. We used the highway and headed south, and after roughly two hours, we reached our destination.

“We’re finally here!” Miu exclaimed after getting out of the back seat. She stood in the parking lot of Hawaiian Z as she stretched, letting out a loud groan. “Man, I’m exhausted.”

“All you did was sit in the car, Miu,” Miss Ayako said between sighs as she exited the passenger seat.

“Just sitting is also tiring,” Miu complained. She then exhaled and said, “This area is really nice though. There’s a breeze since the beach is close, and even though it’s hot, it’s not humid at all. I like it.”

“Jeez...” Miss Ayako said before turning to me. “I’m sorry you ended up driving the whole way, Takkun.”

“It’s totally all right. This distance was no sweat,” I replied as I got out of the driver’s seat and adjusted my bag’s strap. As for the rest of our luggage, we’d dropped off the larger items with hotel staff when we drove up to the hotel entrance.

I looked up and saw a clear, blue sky above me. It was brilliantly sunny. The sun was shining bright, but like Miu said, it didn’t feel too hot. There were palm trees all around the parking lot and hotel that gave the place a tropical impression, and they swayed softly with the ocean breeze.

Spa Resort Hawaiian Z was a conglomeration of basically every vacation attraction you could think of—it had pools, hot springs, a hotel, a golf range, and so on and so forth. It had a Hawaiian theme and was the largest waterpark in the Tohoku region. There were creative details implemented all across the facilities to make things feel tropical, like the palm trees spread throughout the grounds and the Hawaiian shirts the staff wore. They also boasted extensive heated indoor pools, so many people visited the resort not only in the summer but the winter as well. It was truly the Hawaii of the Tohoku region.

Commercials for the resort aired frequently within the prefecture, and it was such a popular destination that almost anyone from our prefecture could sing the theme song. As someone who was born and raised in Tohoku, I’d been to the resort many times since I was a child, and I’d been coming once a year for the past few years for our family trip, so you might think I’d tired of it.
