Being alone with his mother is refreshing.
Mainly because there's nothing that can go wrong, and the way she cares for Obanai is… normal. No fattening up for a snake demon, though she works a little too hard. There's no men in this world either. Or no, not in this world, in her life. And here it actually seems to be a problem.
He misses Mitsuri. She'd make it easier. Mother always looks tired. He always has to help her. It feels like they were abandoned. Again.
Only this time, it isn't his fault.
At least, he hopes it isn't.
He prays it isn't.
