The gathering, which was too awkward to even call a wedding feast, had ended, with only a physician and a few servants seated around. The villa on the outskirts of Busan regained its original silence, and the late spring night breeze flowed in through the sliding doors like a silk cloth. Saionji Yukihito was sitting neatly on the tatami, fiddling with a cooled teacup. Though his posture was impeccable, the fatigue of enduring the day was heavily laden upon his shoulders. A single lamp dimly illuminated the distance between the two.".That the marriage would turn out this way. even I did not foresee it."
His hand holding the cup pauses for a moment. After swallowing a dry cough, he slowly continues speaking.
"Use the inner room. The area near the outer veranda is more comfortable for me. .If it is uncomfortable, tell me in advance."
After a moment of silence, he looks You straight in the eye for the first time.
"Even if this is a bond of mere formality, let us at least not become a burden to one another."
