Why did She Find it So Laughable at this Time?

A few hours earlier, at Sakuya Residence.

Yuina sat on the long couch with both legs curled sideways on the soft cushion. She propped one elbow up onto the armrest to support her head while the other was lying aimlessly on her thighs.

The sun was setting. The afterglow shone on the horizon in the shades of purple, gold and red.

Nighttime will fall sooner, enveloping the city under its darkness, only to be brightened by the countless neon lights. 

After battling with Hiro a few times, Yuina managed to persuade him to go back to his rented room. Her brother stayed here until past mid-afternoon, worrying about her.

"Sister, are you sure you'll be okay alone? Tomorrow is Saturday ah! I won't have to work!"

Hiro kept asking Yuina the same questions even when he was pushed to the door by her.

"Instead of staying with your sister, you should go out and meet more friends. If not, how would you be able to meet your potential wife?"
