The Wind Under Her Feet
On the morning of her parents and brother's departure back to their hometown, Hisaki felt a sense of discomfort and loneliness. It was something she had never really experienced before.
At a quarter to eight o'clock, Mr. and Mrs. Chisaka as well as Takuya boarded the train. Hisaki was still waiting outside, standing on the platform. Because the three of them had window seats, she could see them from where she stood.
Yesterday evening, Hisaki brought her parents to see where she lived. Both of them appeared to be so relieved once they saw how good the apartment was despite only having one bedroom for each unit.
"You've got a good bargain! This apartment's better than what your mom and dad had been thinking," Mrs. Chisaka was all smiles as she looked around her daughter's place of living.
"The rent's cheap too and closer to where you work," agreed Mr. Chisaka, "It's really better than most places."
