In order not to wake up his father-in-law who was still sleeping, Uesugi Sakura kept the sound of running hot water in the bathroom to a minimum.
He stared blankly at his own reflection in the water, reminiscing over what his mother-in-law had just said to him.
Perhaps, was he really not being proactive enough?
Should he be a bit more assertive... sometimes being more assertive might lead to better results?
Because Hanabi is inherently a gentle girl, if he's not proactive enough, she might end up feeling more troubled.
Uesugi Sakura washed his face with hot water and stayed quiet for a little while.
"This is for you."
Uesugi Sakura was startled by the sudden appearance of his mother-in-law.
"Were you scared?"
