After the barbeque gathering, Akira did not go to the Yamazaki mansion as often as she used to. She did not hold a grudge for the incident with Hanae, but she did not feel like she could stay for too long in the house with her mother.
Their good relationship became a little distant after her welcoming back Hanae. Akira understood her reasons, but she disliked her mother's bad habit of dealing with situations unclearly. She did not want to be close with a person who did not have a quick mind and a firm attitude.
Therefore, Akira decided to live a peaceful life in her apartment with Kaito. He had craftily moved in, even though his apartment was on the floor below hers. She did not make a fuss because he was not disruptive, and she enjoyed their domestic happiness.
