It was a most unusual request from the devoted worker, and while Shizu was more than inclined to grant the request, he did want to know if anything was wrong. Aijou was starting to have a special place in his heart, and he wanted to know more of him, especially if something were wrong. A slight look of concern reflected in dark pools.
"Is everything alright Aijou? Why do you need off early? Is it anything I can assist with, you do so much for me."
