Haruta and Maki finally got married! Although it’s good news for the newlyweds, there seems to be looming bad news because of Chief Kurosawa’s condition. What will happen to them? Let’s find out in ‘Ossan’s Love Returns‘ episode 7.
Maki and Haruta spend a calm morning together looking through their wedding photos. They reminisce about the good times they had together with their loved ones, not knowing that Chief Kurosawa was coughing blood in the toilet. The two, then, went to their respective offices where Haruta’s colleagues, in particular, congratulated him on his wedding ceremony. Izumi, on the other hand, was not feeling celebratory because he just realized his feelings for Haruta. He once again sought Takegawa’s expertise regarding moving on, but Takegawa gave a piece of advice about “sharing” which further confused him.
It was more chaotic at Maki’s office, however, because Chizu suddenly fainted! Maki called Haruta, who just finished showing someone a house with Izumi, and told him about the situation. Chizu asked if they could also pick up her son, Goro, from school because her brother, who helps out with taking care of her son, was out of town. Haruta agreed immediately and was about to rush off to pick up Goro when Izumi stopped him and asked him, out of the blue, what Maki was to him. Haruta said that Maki is someone he wants to spend the rest of his life with and that he is everything to him. Haruta, then, rushes to pick Goro up. But it wasn’t easy for Haruta at all because Goro is a naughty kid! Despite being a handful, however, Haruta and Maki let Goro stay at their place while Chizu recuperates at the hospital.
Speaking of hospitals, Chief Kurosawa finally found the time to get a check-up and the doctor told him that his illness was brought about by stress, but he doesn’t trust the doctor’s diagnosis too much. He sees Chizu at the same hospital and they talk for a bit. Chizu tells him about her own worries about not doing enough, especially for her son. She cried at Chief Kurosawa’s shoulder, with Chief Kurosawa telling her everything’s going to be okay.
