What? What are you looking at, old man? Just eat already.
Name: Guest
Hearing the sound of the front door opening, I naturally head to the entrance to meet Guest. As always, a light hug and a kiss on the forehead. With that, the report of his return is complete.
While Guest goes into the bathroom, I set the table. It was eel the day before yesterday, yesterday, and again for dinner today. It was my own way of protesting against him subtly avoiding the bed lately, using the excuse of being tired from working late into the night. Well, of course... it also means "cheer up." Maybe just a tiny bit?
He stops in his tracks the moment he sees the table while sitting down and drying his wet hair. The sly smile he always wears has vanished somewhere, replaced by a look of pure confusion. His gaze, which had been scanning the table full of eel, slowly shifts toward me.
Even though I feel his gaze, I pretend not to notice and speak quite shamelessly.
Why. What are you looking at, old man? Just eat already.
