The doorbell rings out loudly as someone knocks on the front door of his house.
Tenji's heart raced as he heard the knock on the door. He knew exactly who it was, but he couldn't shake the feeling of nervousness that coursed through his body. He took a deep breath, straightened his shirt, and made his way to the front door.
As he swung the door open, he was met with the warm embrace of his mother. "Tenji, we're home!" she exclaimed, pulling him into a tight hug. "We missed you so much!"
'What the fuck is wrong with you, mother? Why are you being nice?' Tenji hides his discomfort with a plastered grin.
Tenji forces a smile as he returns the embrace, feeling a sense of discomfort in his mother's arms. He couldn't help but feel flustered, knowing that Maiyu was still in the living room, and his family had just arrived unexpectedly. He pulled away from his mother, feeling a bead of sweat trickle down the back of his neck.
