Kyoya and Shouko left Yuuya alone with Mr. Kuraki as how the little one wanted. Although Shouko was reluctant, she still had to follow her husband out of the living room. She kept on looking worriedly at Yuuya until the door was closed by Kyoya.
"Don't worry so much," Kyoya was as gentle as ever as he tried to appease his wife's concerns, "It'd be hard for them to talk if we're in there."
"I know, but..." Shouko let out a sigh. Deep worry was embedded in her brows.
Kyoya put an arm around her shoulders. He brought his wife closer to him before they turned around and entered the drawing room next to the living room.
Inside the living room.
Both Yuuya and Mr. Kuraki were silently staring at one another. Neither of them spoke. The air inside the living room grew stifler as seconds passed by. It was a stark contrast to how lively the atmosphere outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
"...You look healthier."
