Shouko got discharged at noon. With Kyoya by her side, both of them planned to directly return to the villa. Mrs. Shimizu was called back to help prepared their food for lunch.
Visitors came and went through the doors of the lobby of the hospital. Shouko quietly sat at one corner, waiting for Kyoya who went to see the doctor for the last time. A man dressed in a black suit stood behind her, his eyes were sharp behind his glasses.
This treatment... Shouko still couldn't get used to it. Especially when she saw curious eyes were directed at her and the bodyguard behind her seat.
"Err... Mr. Bodyguard?" Shouko looked at the man behind her. She didn't know his name. With a guilty face, she added, "Could you stand quite far from me? I don't want to attract unnecessary attention."
The bodyguard pondered for a moment. His eyes scanned the lobby. This was not a place of danger. It was possible for him to retreat.
