We are on our way home and Erii is with us in the car while Ryo took the train, Aunt Lisa is uttering her expression that she's surprised to see so many customers came. Knowing that I have so many people helping me run the restaurant is making her so proud of me. Uncle Hiro is so weirdly so quiet and I'm not the only one who realized that, both Erii and Aunt Lisa are noticing that as well but none of them ask him what happened since they both think that he's just tired and a bit drunk.
We are back home, Erii immediately gets into her house after thanking us for giving her a ride. The four of us enter the house and Aunt Lisa immediately goes to her room to put Himawari-chan on her bed. The moment Aunt Lisa closes the door behind her, Uncle Hiro looks at me while grabbing a pack of cigarettes from his shirt pocket.
"Can we have a talk on the backyard, Aze?"
I look at him and nod.
"Yeah, sure."
