Yagi Seiryo was tired.
As a classic workaholic, he was always tired. He did not sleep enough, and his meals were not regular enough. His primary source of strength came from coffee and the knowledge that a lot of people depended on him, especially his niece.
Therefore, even though he was always tired, he could always power through the darkest nights.
However, the tiredness this morning was a little overwhelming.
He felt like he had lived ten years in less than a day. Since the time Emi came to his house to teach Misaki to bake and beat up his bodyguard, he felt like he was no longer in control of his life. It was like everything was spiralling.
He was more than tired. He was at the end of his rope. The declaration from Shi that he was quitting was the straw that broke the camel's back. He sat motionless in his chair after Shi spoke, and he did not respond.
