"Mama! I want you to cook soup!" Anya begged as she tugged on Yor's shirt.
"Alright, Anya. Only if it's fine with Loid." Yor smiled and looked up at Loid.
"Ah.. it's completely fine. It'd be nice to have something other than what I make." Loid said.
"Your food is perfect, Loid!" Yor reassured him.
"Oh.. thanks." He blushed and rubbed the back of his head.
"Mama and Papa are flirting." Anya looked up at Yor and Loid.
"Uh.. anyway! I'll begin making dinner.." Yor became flustered and walked to the kitchen.
As Loid and Anya sat on the couch, Yor noticed Loid has been working late often.
'I wonder what he does at work to be home so late..' Yor said as she worried, but she continued chopping up vegetables and boiling water.
"You two! The soup is done!" Yor said only as loud as the two can hear.
"Coming!" Anya shouted.
"Now, Anya. We have neighbors." Loid rubbed her head and sat at the table.
Yor set down two bowls of soup for Loid and Anya.
"Aren't you gonna eat, Yor?" Loid asked.
"Ah.. I'm fine." Yor said.
'Hm.. something's up with Yor.. is she working too hard with Anya because I always come home late??" Loid worried as he thought to himself.
"Anya likes mama's soup." Anya said to change the stress between her two parents.
"Ah.. you didn't have to say that Anya!" Yor said.
"Me too, Anya." Loid also agreed and Yor appreciated the two's compliments.
"I'm gonna head to bed early. Goodnight you two!" Yor waved goodnight and went into her room.
"Goodnight!" The two on the table said at the same time.
"Mama's been acting weird." Anya said as Yor shut the door.
Yor heard what Anya said and listened behind her door. Yor has a good sense of hearing because of being an assassin.
"Don't worry, Anya. I'm sure she'll get over whatever she's worrying about." Loid said and rubbed Anya's head, not aware of Yor listening.
"What does he mean, 'get over'?" Yor whispered to herself.
She fell on to the bed thinking about what Loid said.
"Papa. Im tired." Anya rubbed her eyes as she finished her soup.
"Alright. Go get ready for bed. I'll read you a story once you're done." Loid reassured Anya as she went to the bathroom.
'Yor indeed has been acting weird ever since I started coming home later than usual..' Loid thought to himself.
'Mama and papa are fighting.' Anya also thought to herself.
As Anya was done brushing her teeth and washing her face, she brought Loid to her room to read her a story.
As Loid finished the story, he tucked Anya in and instead of walking to his room, he got ready to head outside.
Surprisingly, Yor was still awake and heard Loid doing something.
"What's he doing at this time?" Yor said.
She creaked the door open a bit to see Loid getting ready to head outside.
"Were the old ladies right about Loid cheating?" Yor said worryingly as she watched Loid go outside.
"I'll follow after him. Anya is a heavy sleeper anyway." Yor changed into dark clothing and followed Loid stealthily.
Little does Yor know, she's about to discover a family secret.
