Rhys was left blinking confusedly. The pink fiend was...Chibon?! He inwardly groaned. This really was going to be an interesting dinner. "Oh, don't worry." Rhys replied to Chibon's mother, plastering a grin on his face as he stepped inside.

The mother watched him a moment before smiling sadly "He's really not all that bad...I promise...hes just a handful sometimes" He closed the door "Dinners in a few, make yourself comfortable"

"Sure." Rhys agreed somewhat genially, despite what had happened only moments ago. Slowly, he sat on the edge of the sofa, a little wary now that Chibon was lurking about.

Lurking seemed a minor word, the boy was no where around. The Father was making something in the kitchen while Lu played on the floor with that stuffed cat, the Mother was setting the table. And yet the Pink Fiend was no where to be seen at all.

Which was a relief to Rhys, though he didn't know why. For some reason he couldn't stand the thought of the boy disliking him and it seemed Chibon already leaned that way. With a sigh, Rhys went to amuse himself with Lu, sitting down on the floor next to the boy and asking him about his cat.

Lu blinked at him a moment with wide honeygold eyes before smiling "Sicle-chan" and holding the cat out to Rhys. The mother smiled but said nothing, Lu telling Rhys a story about how Sicle-chan was once King of Fuzzy Things but lost his role when he lost his fuzz.

Rhys gave the appropriate expression during the story, feeling deeply for poor Sicle-chan. "You should help him find his fuzz again." Rhys replied, ruffling Lu's hair. "And find him a lovely mate cat to reign as his queen."

Lu giggled, smiling "Sicle-chan cant get his fuzz back it all fell out cause he got old" He hugged the cat, smiling still. Mother smiled "Dinners ready, cmon Lu"

Rhys smiled back at Lu, helping the boy up as they headed to the table together. He was trying not to look around, but he was strangely hoping to see Chibon.

The boy wasnt, at least not till last minute. When every one was seated he trudged in still wearing his clothes from earlier, taking a seat quietly.

Rhys gave him a long look. He still couldn't believe that hair was actually natural. It was so pink! "Chibon, I take it?" He asked.

He looked at him before looking back down to his plate silently. The mother sighed "Chibon be polite...."
"Id rather not...." He replied calmly, using a knife and fork on his steak. His mother had no meat on his plate at all, the father and Lu had both meat and veggies like Chibon, even Rhys's plate was both.

Rhys shrugged. "I makes no difference to me. I just thought I should get to know my new worker." Chibon had pissed him off. Why was the adorable male ignoring him?

"Indeed....Excuse me, im done" He pushed his plate away slightly before standing from his seat "I'll be back later...im going for a walk" That said he grabbed a black zipup hoodie, stepping into his boots before leaving. The Mother sighed, looking to Rhys "I apologize for his behavior...honestly hes usually not like this, he wont tell us whats bothering him..."

Rhys squinted after Chibon. "Not to be rude, but he seems to be more trouble than he's worth. Employee wise I mean. Does he honestly like working here?" He asked.
