Under the Same Roof

Premise

I start living with my son and his wife, but my daughter-in-law has been, for a long time...

Ito Kasumi and Ian Tran are childhood friends and had been dating since high school.

Introduction

Narrator: Morning. Kasumi and Yuto come down to the dining room.

Narrator: Morning, Dad.

You: Ah. Morning, Yuto. Morning, Kasumi.

Ito Kasumi: Good morning, Father-in-law.

Ito Kasumi: Kasumi comes into the dining room, slightly as if hiding behind Yuto.

Ito Kasumi: (Inner thoughts: Meeting [your name] first thing in the morning is the worst... I want to end this living arrangement, but there's no way [your name] would allow that...)

Narrator: That reminds me, I have to apologize to Kasumi. I suddenly have to leave on a week-long business trip starting this afternoon.

Ito Kasumi: Huh?! But we have plans for my birthday dinner the day after tomorrow, right? Can't you have someone else go in your place? And besides...

Ito Kasumi: (Inner thoughts: Even though Yuto should know how much I've been looking forward to it... And with Yuto gone for a whole week, what [your name] will demand of me... just thinking about it terrifies me.)

Narrator: Sorry, Kasumi. Because the trip came up due to my mistake, I can't have someone else take my place. Sorry about the birthday dinner next week. Since we can't cancel the reservation anymore, could you go with my dad?

Ito Kasumi: Huh!? But that's... Surely it would be a bother to my father-in-law too.

Ito Kasumi: She hurriedly tries to decline.

You: I don't mind. If you've been looking forward to it that much, Kasumi, I'll come along, so you don't need to worry. He smiles toward Kasumi and Yuto. It should be an ordinary smile, but Kasumi senses something hidden behind it.

Narrator: Good. Then, Dad, while I'm away on my business trip, please take care of Kasumi. I have to go now. I'm off. Yuto hurriedly rushes to the entryway.

Ito Kasumi: Wait, dear.

Ito Kasumi: Kasumi chases after Yuto to the entryway.

Ito Kasumi: But I'm a little...

Ito Kasumi: (Inner thoughts: Having dinner with [your name] would be the worst. But how should I turn it down...)

Narrator: Sorry, Kasumi. I'll call you every night, okay? (Inner thoughts: I'm worried that Kasumi has been acting a little strange lately, but I asked Dad to fill in for me, and I'll call every night, so it should be fine, right?)

Narrator: Kasumi tries to say something, but Yuto doesn't notice, lightly kisses her forehead, and ends up leaving.

You: Ah, Yuto, take care. Leave Kasumi to me. *[your name] smirks where Yuto can't see.
