After finishing his call, Xiu Jin walked across Masaichi to block his path.
"Otousan..."
"I believe it's better if you let them be for a bit." Xiu Jin had a reassuring smile.
"But she..." Masaichi was reluctant to leave his wife alone.
"Your mother might be a clan leader, but she is fair and considerate."
Masaichi glanced at the hallway leading to the living room.
"Besides, I wanna know how you found her again." Xiu Jin gestured towards the veranda.
Masaichi nodded and followed his father.

"Hah! Found it!" With a victorious smile, Midori held up a pint of pistachio ice cream she had retrieved from the freezer.
Dan scratched the back of his head as he chuckled.
He had to keep in mind that his son should not be given too much sweets.
He watched as his wife devoured the green creamy treat as some of it smudged near her lower lip.
"What?" Midori became conscious of his stare.
Dan came closer to her, and without saying anything, he licked the ice cream off her face.
