And as expected, by the time Seijirou and Haruka emerged from the bathroom, along with the time it took to wear their uniforms, the perfectly cooked food Yuko had prepared was already turning cold.
Yuko, had to quickly microwave everything before they could sit down for a belated, quiet breakfast.
She had heard of their 'business' in the bathroom, well, even if she didn't hear them, she would know what had happened.
But she didn't say anything, finding it unnecessary.
Now, they stood at the front entrance of the house, about to leave.
Yuko, still in her apron, performed a low, formal bow. "Please be careful on your way to school, Seijirou-sama, and Haruka."
"Hmm, we'll be going now."
"We're off, mother."
Seijirou and Haruka bid their farewells to Yuko.
Seijirou opened the heavy front door, and they stepped out onto the polished marble porch.
And right there, her hand raised and about to open the door, was Suzune.
