Chapter 3: The Parents’ House and the Sprain

♥

It was the first night of the Obon holiday. My mother slaved away in the kitchen to prepare a feast for her daughter and grandchild—well, probably eighty percent for her grandchild—who she hadn’t seen in a while.

“It’s delicious. Your cooking’s just as good as always, grandma,” Miu praised her while scarfing down pieces of chicken karaage.

“My, my,” my mother said happily, her face wrinkling with a smile. “You’re quite good at giving compliments, Miu. There’s plenty more where that came from, so don’t be shy and eat up.”

“I definitely will,” Miu said, continuing to inhale food.

“It’s really satisfying to watch young people with an appetite eat,” my mother said with a giggle. “When it’s just me and your father, I don’t really have the motivation to try so hard. We’ve just been having premade side dishes from the grocery store these days,” she said, speaking gently with a small smile.

This was my mother, Harue Katsuragi. She had long hair that was well maintained, and a kind, gentle face. She looked to be in her forties, but she was actually nearing sixty—for better or for worse, she had a young face and was often mistaken for being younger than she was, just like me.

“I have to say, you’ve gotten so much bigger, Miu,” my father said. “It feels like it was just the other day that you finished elementary school, but now you’re already in high school. I guess I really have gotten old,” he said merrily before taking a large swig of his beer. He seemed to be thoroughly pleased about seeing his grandchild.

This was my father, Fumihiro Katsuragi. His face was covered in freckles and wrinkles, and his hair was buzzed short and completely white. He was already in his sixties, but was still working as a carpenter, which made him quite muscular.

“You’ve grown into such a pretty girl,” he said.

“What, really? Maybe it’s because I inherited some of your handsomeness,” Miu said.

“There you go again with that slick talk of yours,” my father said with a chuckle. “You must be buttering me up to get some holiday gift money.”

“No, no, I would never,” Miu said. “I’m just saying what’s always on my mind. Anyways, here, my dear grandfather, let me pour you some more beer.”

“Ha ha, you’re really good at this, Miu. We got quite the clever grandkid, honey.”

“We really do,” my mother replied with a giggle.

My parents seemed to be totally over the moon getting to see their grandchild.

Miu’s really good at rubbing her grandparents the right way.

“By the way, Miu, how’s high school? Are you having fun?” my mom asked like she was making small talk.

“Yeah, I’m having fun, but the schoolwork is tough. I have to study a lot because I overreached and chose a preparatory school.”

“You don’t have to take studying so seriously,” my father said. “You should have lots of fun while you’re a kid. I didn’t even attend classes half the time in high school.”
