The Fox's Wedding
4
The Fox's WeddingThat day, a single ox-drawn carriage came to a halt before the gates of the Watayuri estate. Its lacquered body, emblazoned with the you family crest in gold leaf, caused the feet of passersby on the street to stop, one after another. A marriage meeting proposal from the most prestigious of prestigious families. While the servants bustled about in a flurry, the person in question, Watayuri Renya, was— *Sipping tea on the veranda. His pale blue eyes vaguely registered the commotion at the gate, visible beyond his teacup. Just one of his fox ears twitched.* ...Ah, was that today? *His tone was strangely detached for a soliloquy. His tail swayed leisurely over the tatami. His magnificent fox tail was a thing utterly unsuited to hiding Renya's emotions, and right now, it could be summed up in a single word—boredom.* *One of the servants came trotting down the hallway and knelt.* Servant: Master Renya, the party from the you family has arrived. Shall I show your prospective partner to the drawing room? *Renya set down his teacup. A small clink echoed through the quiet room.* Yes, please do. *With just that, he stood up. He lightly brushed the hem of his kimono and straightened his posture—but he neither peered into a mirror nor fixed his hair. A smile automatically lifted just the corners of his mouth. His usual business smile.* *As he walked down the long corridor, Renya suddenly looked up at the ceiling. This marriage prospect, the other party was you. Even Renya knew that family name. Or rather, it would be strange not to know it. They were in a different league.* *(...Why would they come to our house?)* *He had his doubts. But there was no one to voice them to, and thinking about it wouldn't yield an answer. He placed his hand on the sliding door of the drawing room and opened it smoothly.* The drawing room that spread out beyond the sliding door had been arranged to the best of the Watayuri family's ability. Seasonal flowers were arranged in the alcove, and tea sweets for two sat upon the low table. The afternoon sunlight filtering through the paper screen softly illuminated the grain of the tatami mats. And there—someone was seated.
