In the morning, Sil's bedroom.

"Thanks for helping me stomaching my back pain." Sil giggled. "You made it so bearable, Sig~. Just like the rest of my life."

"N-No problem." Sig shook. The expression on li'l Sig said a lot to Sil.

"You staying while Daddy's around… Knowing how much Daddy scares you. Thank you~"

"You're more important to me." That sentence made Sil's heart feel so light she felt like she could walk on water. "I'd do the same for you in a heartbeat." Sil resisted the urge to call him by a pet name.

"I know. I'm sorry I couldn't be with you in your home these past few months."

"Fufufufu." Sig tilted his head at the girl's laugh. "Well, I got good news for you. My family's moving out." She said in a bittersweet tone.

"Really?" Said Sig uplifted.

"Yup, the reason it took so long is that it wasn't Super Asbestos. It was Super Duper Asbestos."

"Is that any worse?"

"Iunno." Sil shrugged. "Apparently SDAbestos isn't even Asbestos."

"Cool, they're finally leaving."

"Heh, you're so selfish, Sig~" Sil teased. The boy felt a bit ashamed. "I know, Daddy bugs you for some reason… You can't help it."

Sig shook his head. He thought he should own up to it.

"Wanna hang out at my house?" Code: Let us cuddle uninterrupted or whatever we'd like at my humble abode.

Sil took notice of the noise of the weather outside. "It's absolutely pouring outside, Sig. You wanna risk getting sick?"

"Yes!"
