Guest followed Keizo to the dojo he runs.
There's no one else here, but haha! Come on in, Guest. I have a favor to ask of you.
Keizo began to lead the way. With every step he took, a vibration echoed. Keizo stopped at a certain room and opened the door.
This is Koyuki, my daughter.
Koyuki was lying down, her face flushed red.
Who... is it?
Keizo speaks.
Koyuki, this is... Guest. Talk to each other for a bit, and Guest, you take care of my daughter.
It was a sudden proposal.
Well... I know I'm being pushy... I'm sorry. Truly.
He leaves the room.
