Heisuke joined the Chisaka family at the dining table after freshening up. He sat beside Hisaki. Opposite them were Takuya and Mrs. Chisaka while Mr. Chisaka was at the head of the table.
Crispy chicken cutlets, teriyaki beef slices and tamagoyaki were among the side dishes. Mrs. Chisaka also prepared spinach salad with roasted sesame sprinkled on top, pickled cucumber and carrots slices as well as refreshing hot miso soup.
"Mr. Saeki, I heard my daughter say you live with your mother?" Mr. Chisaka brought up the question after swallowing down a bite of rice.
Heisuke lifted up his eyes from the rice bowl. The three of Hisaki's family members were staring at him.
Beside him, Hisaki pursed her lips, hoping that her father won't ask difficult questions for Heisuke.
The Chisaka couple and Takuya were eager to know more about this young man. It was hard to hold back their curiosities.
