Capítulo 49: Affection Improvement

Half of the workday had passed. I sat at my desk, doing my daily work and chatting with Aya and Tomokazu to come up with new ideas, when Aki knocked on the glass door of the office.

"Come in," I said.

She entered the room.

"It's not common for someone to come here," I continued. "Did something happen?"

"Can't I just come to see my Galactical Prince?"

"Bleh," Aya uttered in disgust.

I sighed. "I'd prefer if you called me by my name while we're at work."

"That's not what you say when we…. Nevermind. Alright, Boss. I'm here to ask you if you're available tonight."

The question caught me off guard. "I am, after my lecture. Why?"

"My parents want to have dinner with us."

I opened my mouth to reply, but the words vanished from my mind. The three of them stared at me with a smirk, while Aya chuckled.

"What's so funny?" I frowned.

"Your reaction," she smiled. "Don't worry, I've been in your shoes before. If you need them, your big sister can give you some tips."
