Part of her should have expected him to make the offer. Not because of Lee's tendency to give over the top displays of chilvaric deeds, but simply for the level of kindness that he possessed. He was, truly and honestly, a pure and selfless individual. But there was no helping the moment of shock that flitted across her features, all the same, even as her steps faltered and gave a single moment of pause before they resumed their pace.

"Well. I definitely won't say no to that." Because didn't he have his own family to spend the holiday with? "But what about your mom and dad? Don't you wanna spend the rest of the afternoon with them?"

Lee kept up with her pace, knowing the way back to her apartment by heart now. It made it all the easier to focus on Tenten rather than the familiar streets around them.

"My mother and father like to use holidays to catch up on big orders," Lee reassured her with a shrug. "They will be busy until evening, but I believe we will all be going out for dinner later."

His parents deserved a break from their work. They weren't shinobi, but that was no issue living in a shinobi village. There was never any lack of work for tailors when part of the ninja way of life revolved around close contact with blades and darts.

Understanding their work and knowing the demands that came from it, she gave a nod. It was no easy business trying to making a living on your own. But at least for tailors, they were never left wanting for customers. "That's good. Your parents are too nice to have to work as hard as they do."

But then, she knew that Lee made a point to help them out as often as he could, in between his training and his missions. So it was fortunate that he would be be able to spend some time with them without the pressures of work. "Give them my regards, will you?"

Granted, Tenten had only met them a number of times. But they had always been kind and welcoming to her, much like their own son had always done with most people he met. At the thought of them, the kunoichi made a mental note to come by for a visit sometime soon. Perhaps bring them some of her own business and bring in some of her own training shirts to mend...
