Kyouko wiped her hands on a towel, finishing up the last of the lunch preparations.
She glanced at the clock hanging above the kitchen door.
Haruki's probably still at his office... or maybe already on his way back.
She smiled faintly at the thought.
But then she paused.
Come to think of it... I still don't have his phone number.
She tapped a finger against her lip, thinking.
Well... I'll ask for it later.
Ding dong~
The doorbell rang, cutting into the quiet afternoon.
"Coming!" Kyouko called out, slipping off her apron and heading to the front hallway.
Checking the intercom screen, she saw a postman standing outside the gate, holding a large box in his arms.
"Delivery!" the voice came through the speaker.
"Okay, I'll open the gate!"
Kyouko quickly grabbed a facemask from the entry shelf and slipped it on before stepping outside.
She pressed the gate button, and the metal gate buzzed open.
The postman approached, shifting the box in his hands.
