As she opened her eyes, she immediately jumped into the air and attacked Kenji with a swift punch.
"Ah!" Kenji exclaimed, as he realized that he had just been hit right in the nose!
"Children, get behind me!" the lady said, looking at Kenji menacingly. But when she realized that the kids were just staring at her, as if she had said the strangest words, she understood something was off.
"I said get behind me and let me deal with this man!" she said once more, this time with a stricter expression.
"Why would they get behind you when you just hit their father?!" Kenji said, bearing through the pain in his nose.
"Wha—" The lady suddenly had a strange expression on her face as she heard Kenji's words. "Their father? You mean that they're your children?" she asked, her gaze inquisitive.
"Yes, their father! I mean, I had just helped you, and you repay me with a punch?!" Kenji said, a vein bulging at the side of his head.
