章 1539: A glimpse of her family's circumstances

Because of Haruko’s tight-lipped attitude concerning her circumstance in their house, I have yet to get the chance to know her family or, at least, find out what’s causing the strained situation that she mentioned to me.

True. It’s still the same for some of my girls. However, they were, at least, not as evasive as Haruko when talking about them. Take Shio for example, every chance she could get whenever we found an idle time while together, she’d talk about her parents.

For Haruko, it’s like a taboo topic that she never really elaborated on. At the very least, she assured me that her situation wasn’t really a big deal. I trust her so I never thought of forcing her to open that up to me. Besides, if the situation truly turned into something serious, I doubt she’s going to keep it from me. Because at the end of the day, I would be able to notice it through her behavior.
