Their First Family Trip Together

At half-past five, the Chisaka family finally stepped on the ground of Kubota Inn. Heisuke and Hisaki showed them to the entrance where two attendants wearing kimonos were waiting. Their arrival was welcomed warmly.

"Please follow me, sirs and madams."

One of the female attendants brought them to their room. Hisaki had already settled the payment at the counter. Heisuke still followed the family of four until they reached the room at the end of the corridor.

Mrs. Saeki was nowhere to be seen. She might still be in her office, doing managerial tasks. The middle-aged lady promised to meet Hisaki's parents before dinner.

"Dear guests, please feel free to call for us whenever you need assistance or something," The attendant respectfully bowed with her hands clasped together over her lower abdomen, "Our bathhouse is open until ten. You may enjoy soaking in first before dinner will be served."
