The surname Kato seems identical to the common name.
Mrs. Kato is an ordinary housewife who takes care of the daily life of her husband and daughter. Her daily life is simple and fulfilling, and she occasionally chats with other housewives.
Mr. Kato is an ordinary office worker with an average salary, neither high nor low, which allows his family to live a good life.
And Megumi... The passing heroine is full of 'ordinary' charm!
...
At the dining table at Kato's house, Mrs. Kato and Mr. Kato are so friendly that even Ryuji feels embarrassed.
"By the way, it's been almost 12 years since we left Chiba." Mr. Kato sighed with unclear intent.
"Yeah, I remember when we moved in, Megumi was crying and didn't want to leave Ryuji-kun," said Mrs. Kato.
If it was another girl, she probably blushed at what her mother said.
However, the main character is Megumi, who responds dryly to her mother's teasing: "Uh, I don't remember."
No, even if she did, Megumi wouldn't admit it.
After all, she was just expressionless and extremely bland, and it wasn't that she lacked emotions like embarrassment.
Communication between the families was simple and warm, Mrs. Kato talked about the gossip she heard from Mrs. Kobayashi next door today, like whose cat fell in love with whose dog.
"Can a cat like a dog? No matter how I think about it, that's impossible!" Ryuji complained.
Cats and dogs exist like eternal enemies
Mrs. Kato said seriously: "Ryuji-kun, you think about love too simply. If it matches your eyes, even same-sex will explode into brilliant sparks!"
Ryuji fell silent.
"By the way, are Megumi and Ryuji-kun dating?" Mrs. Kato suddenly asked gossip.
Ryuji choked on the sudden topic, and almost became the first Master to choke to death by his own saliva.
Megumi handed over a glass of water carefully, and said to her mother with some reproach: "Mom, can you stop asking questions like that all of a sudden?"
"Sorry, Ryuji-kun are you okay?" Mrs. Kato asked with a regretful expression.
Ryuji waved his hand: "It's okay."
The taciturn Mr. Kato suddenly said: "Seeing Ryuji's reaction, you two really are on a date, right?"
Ryuji and Megumi paused, looked at each other and nodded.
This wasn't something to hide, and Ryuji's visit this time was also meant to express his opinion to the Kato family.
"Ah, you two really are dating!"
Turns out, not all parents are against high school romance.
Parents in Japan have always been more open-minded, for example Ryuji's mother asked when he would let her hold her grandson a year ago.
He was still in junior high school at the time, and he didn't even have a girlfriend!
Mr. Kato nodded without saying anything, because he agreed with the matter.
Come to think of it, Ryuji still didn't dare say that he had another girlfriend.
Even the most enlightened parent would persuade their daughter to pick up a kitchen knife after hearing about Ryuji's deed.
"Are Ryuji-kun's parents okay?" asked Mrs. Kato.
At first it was just a casual question, but ever since Ryuji and Megumi's relationship was exposed, it felt like a meeting of in-laws.
"These two should be lying on a beach at a recreational resort in the tropics by now."
And that is money that their son has worked so hard to earn back!
"Are they going on holiday too? I also want to go," said Mrs. Kato with emotion.
At the right time, Ryuji took out the gift he had prepared, which was a global travel ticket for half a year.
"This is the travel ticket I got. Unfortunately, since I'm still a student, I really don't have time to go."
Such words are of course a lie. If there was such a lottery, it would have been pumped long ago!
"If you two are interested, why don't you give it a try?"
As long as the two of them were chased away, he could live with Megumi again without any fuss or anger!
Of course, this was tacitly agreed to by Megumi!
"This... isn't that great?" Mr. Kato hesitated.
As an elder, what would he think about receiving precious gifts from the younger generation!
"And the company can't be left behind."
If he really left his job of half a year and went on vacation, what was waiting for him after returning home would only be a cardboard box full of his belongings!
Ryuji smiled mysteriously.
The next second, a call came through Mr. Kato's cell phone.
"Hello."
A majestic voice came from the phone, but there was flattery in his tone?
