Haruchiyo's POV
Delicious food is served on a circular rotating table that we are all seated around. The peaceful music of the restaurant filled the seemingly awkward silence between us.
Grandma cleared her throat, disturbing the silence and asking how was our father's work going.
"Same thing as ever." He replied as he continued to eat. Senju then started to talk to him excitedly and Takeomi would also add something here and there to the conversation.
I was just boredly looking at the food while they chatted, my mind was blank and it felt like I have no energy to eat.
I should've insisted on staying at the student council meeting rather than being here. I'd rather listen to every complicated thing that Michi says than be here with someone like our father.
He rarely was ever home and was so emotionless every time I see him. He started to bury himself at work after our mother died and he rarely ever had time for us so he just left us to grandma. Then one time after the incident where I got injured by my mouth, he suddenly started to act like he cared, at least that's how I see it.
"Haruchiyo, do you not like your food?" Father asked, snapping me out from my thoughts.
"No" I replied and sat properly as I took a bite of the food on my plate.
"I see" He replied and continued eating.
I just don't get why he was acting like he even cared for us in the first place. But since Senju looks happier, I always just avoid conflict and ignore him most of the time unless I want to.
It's not entirely because he suddenly had a change of heart, it's because it bothers me how he thinks about Michi.
He's obviously hostile in some way to her and I don't like that one bit.
The drive home was silent since Grandma and Senju were asleep at the back and Takeomi said he had a place to go but I think he just wants to escape. He's probably at Shinichiro's shop.
"Haruchiyo, are you feeling unwell? You've been quiet the whole time." He said while I watch the streets we passed.
"I'm always silent." I replied, not even giving him a glance.
"You being avoidant has been frequent lately. Do you hate me, Haruchiyo?" He asked as I mentally scoffed.
