"A fifteen year old son, huh?" Reigen gestured at her with his chopsticks in disbelief. "I don't believe it. I took you for twenty-one at most!"

Dahlia laughed and held her cheek, clearly flattered. Mimey shot Reigen a look.

"It's been a long time since I've had kids in the house..." Dahlia affectionately patted Chid's head. "Chid here has been a wonderful guest."
