Eternal Melody

'Since I became in charge, I have only met the police chief a few times. Those few visits always ended up in an argument and exchanging sarcastic remarks and cruel words. But, even before all of this, I overheard his conversation with Aki before. I know he thinks poorly of strong women.'

Just thinking of the old man's outdated views frustrated her. Because even though he has seen her strength with his own eyes, he still believes she should be staying at home taking care of the children. Still believes that women shouldn't be fighting.

It's strange that man isn't making it more difficult for her when he could be.

A thought flashes through her mind. Was it Aki? Would Aki be stupid enough to visit the police station in his condition?

'I'd like to say no, but I can see him do that. The head police chief always looked like a lost puppy following Aki around. If Aki threatened him, he would definitely back down.'
