"Let's talk."
Rie wants to say that there's nothing to talk, but the words refuse to leave her mouth. His piercing gaze freezes her on the spot. She hasn't moved since she stepped inside the house.
It's been 5 years.
She doesn't know why she feels anxious. She didn't do anything wrong. If it was old her, she would have slapped him and kicked him out of the house. But her son is here. She doesn't want him to see that side of him. Her son already likes Kiyohira.
Kiyohira sees her lips quiver nervously. She is rubbing her gloved hands anxiously. He walks to her and grabs her wrist. He drags her to the couch and makes her sit.
Sitting opposite her, he asks the first question. "Why did you say that I chose Chisa?"
He did hear her earlier words. She even thought that he would hurt his son. He knows that she doesn't think much of him, but he didn't expect that she dislikes him that much.
