Dining Room

The girls sat with the brothers during dinner. Yui sat beside Ayato while Shira beside Shu. The older girl merely stared at her food while the little girl happily ate down her food as the brothers with the exception of Shu.

Finest foods were served at the table that made Shira drool over.

The brothers quietly ate and the atmosphere around them was awkward and tense but Shira didn't really care as she continued to eat.

Occasionally, Shu would wipe the little girl's grubby face with the napkin who happily obliged. Yui stared at the blonde with shock present in her eyes. She didn't think Shira would get close to Shu.

"You haven't eaten very much, Bitch-chan." A voice spoke beside her. She turned to see Laito standing there leaning close to her.

"You need to eat properly or you could become anemic. Would you like me to feed you?" Laito said with a grin until it curled downward once a voice called out to hm.

"Laito." Reiji voice called out to him. "It's bad manners to get to your feet during a meal."

"Yes, sir~" Laito answered before glancing back at Yui. "We'll continue this later, Bitch-chan." He then walked back to his seat.

Suddenly, Shu stood up catching everyone attention and turned to him. Shira tilted her head up to the blonde who's eyes are closed, before taking one slow bite sensing the aura in the dining room.

"Shu-san?" Yui spoke out.

"This is a pain." Shu said as he started to walk away and left the dining room.

"That deadbeat." Reiji muttered and Shira heard it. She could tell the two brothers are not in good terms with each other.

"Nothing good can come of anyone who grows up spoiled rotten." He finished as Shira stared at him for a while before eating again. She sneakily took some of Shu's untouched food and placed it one her plate.

"Teddy, what would you like to eat next?" Kanato asked his stuffed toy, Teddy. The little girl find it awkward to not stare at the purplehead while she eat her food.

"Let's have a banana snowball." He lifted the for and cut the cookie of some sort into half. He stayed still for a second before lifting the fork and began stabbing the poor plate.

"He won't even make the effort to attend our monthly dinner party." Reiji said to himself but then again Shira heard him.

"That will be all for today." Reiji announced and Yui looked at him confused. Subaru stood from his seat along with the triplets and started to walk away. Shira wiped her face with the napkin and stood along with Yui only to be cut off by Reiji.

"One moment." The two girls stopped and stared at him.

"Your manners are deplorable, especially you." Reiji pointed out as he stared at the little girl who just pouted.

"I was hungry you know!" Shira retort back but Reiji merely narrowed his eyes, raising a brow.

"One of these days, I will take you and your sister aside and discipline you thoroughly. Understood?" Shira pouted but nonetheless nodded along with Yui.
