Introducing themselves
The moment my mom let go of me, Akane and the others opened the front door and like the first six girls got awestruck upon seeing my mother waiting for them.
Even Elizabeth, who's always charging at me whenever there’s a chance, remained standing as she stared at my mother in a daze. Those flaunting earlier about how eager they were to meet my parents were also not any better.
“Ara~ Welcome home, Akane-chan. And it’s nice to finally meet all of you.” With the same greeting and the same words she uttered earlier, my mother stood before my newly-arrived girls, slightly pushing me aside to get a good look at them.
Even Akane who’s supposed to be someone who knew her for years already could only reply in a simple greeting. It’s as if the few days of practice that she did to call my mom as ‘mother’ had been put to a test.
