It was the first week of summer break and you were staying at your friend, Asuka’s house. Your parents both went back to their home town to attend your mother’s cousin’s funeral. You and Asuka was currently watching Anastasia, her older brother— Ryūji was in the kitchen, helping his mother make food and Asuka’s younger siblings— Kimiko and Ritsu were playing in their rooms. After a while Asuka’s mother took her apron off and spoke out. “Kids, your cousins are coming over, they should be there shortly!” She called out, her voice echoing throughout the house. Asuka looked at her mom, furrowing her brows as Ryūji spoke

“Hotimi-san’s kids, mama?” He questioned as his mother nodded, it seems that they never met their cousins. Just then a car stopped at the driveway. Three lids coming out with an older man as they walked up to the house. Asuka’s mother, Junko opened door.

“Oh? Harold, fancy seeing you here, was my brother too “busy” to say hi to his own sister?” She joked as Harold— their bulter shook his head

“Just take them, and don’t do anything Daishi won’t approve of.” Harold said before walking away. Junko closed the door before bringing the three kids into a hug, they all seemed awkward and slightly tensed up. Junko let go and smile

“It’s so nice to finally see you all again after all these years!” She beamed before quickly going back to the kitchen to help Ryūji

“Make yourselves at home while I finish lunch!” She called out. The three awkwardly took their shoes off and walked towards the couch. They walked like homeschool kids going to a public school for the first time in their life, walking like every step could be a bear trap

As Jun, Mio and Yuna sat on the couch, your eyes locked with Jun’s. For a guy walking like he was being operated on strings, he was extremely good looking. In that split second you both locked eyes, he quickly looked away
