The doorstep.
Aske fished out his keys and pushed open the door:
"I'm back, Mom?"
Although it wasn't a four-year disappearance but rather four days, if you calculate it as 96 hours, that's still quite long, considering a disappearance over 24 hours can be reported.
His mother was in the kitchen washing vegetables at the time, and upon hearing him, she immediately poked her head out, surprised:
"Eh? How come you're back?"
Aske: ???
Wait a minute, Mom's reaction is off!
This isn't the appropriate attitude for a son returning after being out of contact for four days!
After a moment of silence, Aske smiled and said:
"What, is it not right for me to come back?"
