A bit rusty, but he suddenly came back.

Ah, it's been quite a while since we've done this.

Did you feel that now would be a good time to catch up? After all it you've been reading quite a bit lately. When we revisit the past we stumble across things that remind us of how they used to be and we realize how much has changed as well.

I wonder though, do you think Kyou and the others would still be around? I believe you said you had seen a few lately but I believe that they'll be quite busy.

I'm just glad to have the opportunity to talk again.

I wouldn't be surprised if Kyou came running the moment he heard you speak.

[repentant_father]

I would be glad to see him again. But it does seem like something he would do.

But it is nice to see you again as well.

[sorta_cinderella]

Thank you, Kazuma-dono. It's always nice to see you as well. If you would like, I can wait by your side until he arrives.

[repentant_father]

Company would be nice. Thank you for the offer Saki, Kyou is lucky to have made such wonderful friends.

[sorta_cinderella]

I also consider myself very blessed.

[repentant_father]

That is good to hear. I hope that he hasn't been too much trouble.

Have you been well?

[protectingfreedom]

They are around. I have seen them.

[repentant_father]

Akito, this is a surprise. It is rare that we have a chance to speak it seems.

How have you been?

[protectingfreedom]

I'm sorry; I'm usually so busy and - [What can she even say?]

...well. What of yourself?

[repentant_father]

Being the head of the family has a number of responsibilities, it is bound to keep someone busy.

I am well, pleased to have the opportunity to see and speak to everyone again.

[protectingfreedom]

I have chosen to lead everyone. I like being busy and Shigure makes sure I never become too stressed. [By dragging her out for random outings.]

Kyo especially, I presume.

[repentant_father]

So I've heard. Everyone seems to have been adjusting rather well.

Of course, a father is always happy to see his son.
