Chapter 28: Kana is staying over.
As the due date for the birth of the Tonobe family's first son approached, Hiroko-san was admitted to the hospital with plenty of time to spare. Momi-san, contrary to his dynamic personality, is said to be quite a worrier. He took Hiroko-san, who was having her second baby and had a relaxed attitude, to the hospital in case something went wrong.
Kana is now staying at the Kyobe family's house.
It is a strange feeling to have guests in our home all the time. It is as if our house is not our house anymore.
