Chapter 3.13: January 6, 2018
"Erunai. Erunai, I must go."
"Hm? Oh, sorry for falling asleep on you like that."
"I do not mind. However, I do need to leave now."
"Wait, why? Tomorrow—or is it today?—is a Sunday."
"I often work through the weekend."
"No, no, no. It's 2018. It's a new year. You are going to relax on weekends."
"Erunai—"
"The company's stocks are not going to crash because you weren't signing reports on a Sunday."
"I am actually planning to—"
"Leonel Belmonte, you are going to spend the rest of this weekend away from work whether you like it or not."
"…"
"Agreed?"
"…I suppose that will be fine."
"You bet it will! We'll start with a sleepover."
"…Where will I sleep?"
"…You can sleep in Kenny's room, I guess…"
"You do not have to force yourself, Erunai. The couch will do just as well."
"…No, no, it's fine. I'll just grab you some clothes and things from his room. You can shower first."
"…Are you certain of your decision?"
"Yeah, yeah, I am. The healing process can hurt just as bad as the wound, right? It's fine."
"Then it is fine with me."
