He Was More Worried About Leaving Them Behind

The couple reached home just a few minutes before ten o'clock. After saying goodnight to each other, Hisaki walked inside her apartment and locked the door. She didn't hear the sound of Heisuke moving away from the outside until a few seconds later.

"...huh."

Hisaki kicked off her black pump shoes at the entryway, not bothering to put them properly like usual. Dragging her tired body to the living room, Hisaki carefully placed the box down on the low table.

'Should I open it now?'

Hisaki lay on her stomach. Her heavy-lidded eyes showed how exhausted she was right now. The long hours of work, the rides to the town and the burden on her mind were taking a toll on her body.

'Maybe... tomorrow.'

In the end, Hisaki slept with the lights still bright above her.

On Heisuke's side, he found that his mother had yet to go to sleep.
