Hayne rang the doorbell as they stood on the porch, waiting for the resident to come open up for them. A second later, a man creaked open the door, meeting Hayne and Seiya.
The man, Hayne's uncle, his eyes spread wide in shock seeing the both of them outside—but without letting the man's shock linger or waiting for any proper invitation in, Hayne walked in, followed by Seiya.
The man remained frozen on his spot at the door, mouth agape with facial expression dark with mounting dread. After some moment, whatever feeling of mixture he felt gradually faded. He shut the door, walking into the house to meet his nephew.
As he made his way to Hayne, he was heavily cautious of Seiya who seated on the couch, avoiding any eye contact or even getting closer to him. The man grabbed Hayne by the back of his clothe, pulling him away into another room for privacy.
