Summary
Aiko gave a weak smile; a further attempt to gather broken pieces.
"How long will mom be out with her co-worker this time?"
Of course, there was a mocking way in which the word “co-worker” came out.
Eiji shook his head, "Aiko, don’t say it like that."
"Did she not mention him this time?"
Although Aiko was still his kid sister, she wasn’t the same little girl that was blissfully unaware of the state of their parent’s relationship, not anymore.
He bit the inside of his lip, the inability to protect his sister still stung.
"Long enough to miss dinner."
He reached for the porcelain plate he had put out for his mother, Aiko placed her hand on his arm, stopping him."Wait…"
Eiji gave her a sorrowful look, with shared experiences came understanding.
His sister retracted her hand, returning it to her lap, "ahh, nevermind."
