While dining together, Kiyoka engages in small talk with Miyo, asking about her days.
When done with household chores, she sews a bit and reads magazines Yurie lends her.
Miyo has trouble thinking of something, and goes to her standby of apologizing.
He confirms that he has abandoned Miyo and doesnt care if she lives or dies.
She can also tell Koujis smiles are fake…butwhat does she expect?
He takes her out for sweets, the first time shes had anything sweet since Kouji brought her some.
This frightens Miyo, who believes Kiyoka doesnt know shes ungifted.
Both seem strangely drawn together in a way neither of them can explain, but recognize the importance.
When a man gives a woman such a comb, it typically symbolizes a proposal.
Kiyoka insists its not like that, but that could be histsundereside talking.
When Miyo opens the gift, she runs to him and says she cant accept it.
He quite rightly believes that prodigious families shouldnt act in such a manner.
Not that hes not willing to give it his all.
My money is on Koujis dad.
If Kiyoka wants Miyo to remain with him, he may have to fight to protect her.
But he seems to be supremely capable when it comes to fighting, so Im not too worried.
