"Ah~ finally."
She blinked.
"What…?"
"We thought you're going to take too long, y'know!" Hitori burst.
"They are actually taking their time."

Miki-san sighed. "Still! Congratulations to my baby and son-in-law!" She felt herself getting squished by a hug from her mother that was gone too soon as she transferred her affections to Kageyama-kun.
"Yeah, congrats, Sawa. Congrats, Kageyama."
The lad stiffened beside her. She felt as his hand on hers tightened. "…Thanks."
"Congrats!"
"Com'n, who's up for barbeque? My treat."
"Ooh, really, Daichi-san?"
"Yeah!"

Sawako shared a look with Kageyama-kun, confused at their slight indifference at their new status.
"Hey, lovebirds! Stop dawdling!"
