"It's time to get up, Tsuna." Shouko sat on the bed, looking at his sleeping face, and spoke softly.
After waiting for a while and seeing no response from him, she began to rub his face. His whole face was white and clean, and it felt good to rub it.
And because Uncle and Aunt Miyamura were both good-looking, Tsuna was not much worse. The point is that he was not as sloppy as other boys of his age. He was quiet and clean, except when he helped her teach those kids who bullied her. But even if he was like that, she liked him very much.
"If you rub it any more, the skin will break."
A lazy and somewhat speechless voice interrupted her thoughts. Shouko reacted and quickly let go of her hand, smiling awkwardly and explaining: "Sorry, Tsuna, I was lost in thought."
"What are you thinking about? You're so lost in thought, I see you've been thinking about it for a while." Tsuna gently rubbed his slightly red cheeks and asked curiously.
"Think...think..." Shouko looked at his curious eyes and kept stuttering at the beginning. Suddenly, an idea flashed and she said hurriedly: "Thinking about the kite you will fold for me tomorrow!"
"Yes, yes, that's it!" She was afraid that he would not believe her, so she spoke first to promise. After she finished speaking, she felt a little guilty. As for telling him the truth that she was thinking about him, it was impossible to tell the truth.
"There is still a whole day, don't worry." Tsuna knew from her look that she was not telling the truth, but he didn't want to ask.
"The two upstairs, are you still going to have breakfast?" Shizuka's voice came from downstairs, interrupting the two who wanted to continue chatting.
"I'll go down first, Tsuna, hurry up!" Shouko felt a little guilty and hurried downstairs, completely ignoring the worried voice behind her asking her to "walk slower.
"Dad, why are you still here?" After Tsuna packed up and walked downstairs, he saw a familiar figure in the kitchen and asked in confusion.
There was a parent-teacher meeting today. The students would go to school much later than before, and they also got up later than before. He should have gone to the office at this time.
Daisuke kept his eyes on the newspaper and laughed without turning his head: "Haha..., today is your first parent-teacher meeting, I will go too." The words were accompanied by the sound of turning pages of the newspaper.

"Get out of the car." It took Daisuke about 5 minutes to park the car in the parking space outside Minato Elementary School, and he said to the three people indifferently through the rearview mirror inside the car.
"Let's go." Shizuka took the hands of the two cute kids as soon as she got out of the car, without any intention of waiting for Daisuke.
"Are they twins?" As soon as the three of them walked into the school gate, they heard a woman's curious question.
Tsuna turned his head and found that it was a young woman with dyed yellow hair. He always felt that he had some impression of this woman. Shouko was also looking at her curiously.
Shizuka shook her head and chuckled, explaining, "Hehe... No, they are my two children."
Tsuna watched silently for a moment, then finally recalled who the woman was. She was the mother of that spiky-haired boy, the one who always caused trouble at school and got called in every few months. He remembered her clearly because he'd seen that boy in the teacher's office once, back when he'd bullied Shouko.
"Are they a brother and a sister?" The woman observed the two cute kids and felt that her guess was almost right. The boy looked at her boldly, while the girl lowered her head timidly when she looked at her, not daring to look at her.
Shizuka said something shocking: "They are a son and a daughter-in-law." Because she spoke too fast, Shouko didn't hear the second half clearly, and only heard the word "son", so she didn't react to her words at all.
The woman looked at the other person in surprise, a little bit unbelievable, but she felt that there was no point in the other person lying to her.
Tsuna calmly changed the subject: "Auntie, where is Shoya?" He had long been immune to these words and was not surprised. Considering Shouko, it was better to change the subject.
"Huh?" The woman was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the other party actually knew Shoya and knew that she was her mother. She immediately regained her expression and said a little worriedly: "I don't know why he came back yesterday. His whole body was wet. He had a slight fever when he got up this morning."
After the woman finished speaking, she was afraid that Tsuna would worry, so she continued to explain in a gentle voice: "But don't worry, kid. Shoya has taken medicine and will be fine after a good sleep."
"No, no, no, I don't care about him at all," Tsuna complained silently in his heart, but he still looked like a good child on the surface.
"What's your name, kid? How do you know that Auntie is Shoya's family?" The woman couldn't help her curiosity and asked while half squatting.
Tsuna first introduced himself to her and then explained the reason for knowing her: "I saw you and him together in the teacher's office last time."
"You're Miyamura Tsunayoshi, aren't you?" The woman looked slightly surprised. Seeing Tsuna's puzzled expression, she let out a small chuckle and added, "I've heard about you from my Shoya and his teacher."
Daisuke walked up from behind and asked curiously, "Why are you all standing here? Aren't you going to the classroom?" He saw them standing here chatting at the school gate just now.
"I'll leave first." The woman nodded and greeted everyone, then walked up the stairs on the other side. After
Shizuka made sure that the other party was far away. She chuckled and complained to Daisuke, "I was just about to start listening to your son's glorious deeds, but you interrupted me."
"What glorious deeds can he have?" Daisuke didn't believe it.
"Yes! Tsuna's grades are always the first every year." Shouko spoke first, with a little pride in her words, as if the results were hers.
For some people who come out to work, they don't think it's a big deal whether they rank first in the exam or not. But for the students, getting first place in the exams every year is really amazing. The point is that for the students in the same class as Tsuna, he is always listless in class, but he always gets first place.
Daisuke chuckled and patted Tsuna's head, and said to Shouko, "Haha, that's really amazing, keep it up."
"Let's go." Shizuka let go of their hands and let them walk by themselves; otherwise, they might fall when holding hands up the stairs, and it would not be good to block the people behind them.
"Um... parents, please sign behind here first."
There was a table next to the door of Class A, Grade 3, on the third floor. A girl with a round face, wearing round-frame glasses and a few freckles on her face, sat at the table. She timidly called out to the family of four.
"Yeah."
Shizuka chuckled and nodded at her, pulling Daisuke to the table, picking up the pen on the table and wrote her name after Shouko's name, then handed it to him and pointed to the name behind Tsuna.
"Can't you sign for me, too?" Although Daisuke complained, he still took the pen she handed over and signed his name.
