[ Nishikiyama observes how many are moving to the doors and chattering about the izakayas or hostess clubs they'll be hitting up later this evening. Similarly, he observes that Mine is moving away from the glob of Nishikiyama Family members who pool together and in aims of waiting in the courtyard. He finds that charming for some reason.
Mine only seems to watch him, most of the time. Maybe because they're the same age, or because they've seen some of the truth of one another. Whatever the reason is, Nishikiyama's found himself sort of fond of it, and after the exit wave of patriarchs allows him, he drifts a little closer. Looks from Shimano and other family heads pass over Mine as he bows, wondering why he'd fallen behind and strayed from his pack. They don't mind enough to stop or say anything, though, seeing as how Nishikiyama himself doesn't mind it; after all, he's half learned to expect it from Mine by now.
It's not a terrible thing to have someone glued to his hip again. He'd missed the companionship he'd taken for granted in the past. ]
Who're you?
[ Nishikiyama's words are playful and sarcastic when he is eventually close enough to be heard. There's too much familiarity in them to suggest to anyone he doesn't recognize the person before him. ]
