8:00 p.m.

Rintarou and his 6 year old daughter were watching some tv shows. Just the two of them, it was nice.

"Mimi, let's go to sleep okay?" Rintarou said picking up his daughter.

"Yes mama"

Mizuki Miya, the daughter of Osamu and Rintarou Miya. She was six this year, which means she's about to start going to preschool. She loved exploring and do things that piqued her interest.

Rintarou smiled and went upstairs to Mizuki's room. Carrying the 6 year old in his arms. He went in the room and tucked Mizuki in.

The room was flower themed, she just loved how flowers were so pretty and smelled nice. The room was decorated by her fathers, she loved them both very much.

"Do you want a bedtime story today?"

"Yeah, I want the princess and the frog" Mizuki said pointing at the book.

"Anything for you"

He started reading the book, he actually memorized some lines since Mizuki always would pick the same book. Rintarou unfortunately was very good at telling stories, not just by reading them but using different tones for characters or maybe acting while reading the book. Mizuki just loved how her farther was so passionate while reading her bedtime stories.

Minutes passed by, and the story ended. Mizuki was yawning, she was getting sleepy. Rintarou smiled and planted a kiss on Mizuki's forehead.

"Sweet dreams my little princess" Rintarou said as he walked away.

Suddenly he felt a hand grabbing his wrist.

"Um mama, can I ask you something?"

"Hm? Sure, if you promise to go to sleep right after"

"Promise"

"Okay then, what's the question Mimi?"

"Mm, when is daddy gonna tuck me in?" Rintarou widened his eyes.

"It's been a week since daddy last tucked me in. Does daddy hate me?" Mizuki said shredding a tear.

"Oh no sweetheart. Daddy loves you too much to even hate you" Rintarou said hoping to calm his daughter.

"B-but daddy doesn't have dinner with us anymore, he doesn't hug me when he comes back from work anymore" Mizuki started crying more.

"Mimi don't cry, mama's here" Rintarou said hugging his daughter tightly.

They calmed down after a few minutes. Mizuki stopped crying and just stayed quiet. Rintarou then let go of the hug and faced his daughter once again.

"Did you and daddy have a fight?"

"No, we didn't. We love eachother way too much to do that"
"Daddy's just busy, that's all" Rintarou forced a smile, making sure his daughter wouldn't cry more.

Rintarou then tucked her daughter once again and placed another kiss on her forehead.

"Goodnight Mimi, mama loves you. Daddy too" Rintarou hoped to cheer his daughter.

He then closed Mizuki's bedroom door and went to his own.

You must be wondering, did Osamu and Rintarou had a fight? No they didn't. Did they break up? Nope. We're they out of love? Not eve close. It's like Rintarou said, Osamu was 'busy'.

Rintarou walked in his bedroom door and closed it. He could see the office room was accompanied by someone. Osamu was yet still 'busy'. He sighed and just changed into his pyjamas. He layed on his bed, his blanket covering him up from his chin to his feet.

Later on he dozed of to sleep.

3:23 a.m.

Rintarou woke up due to a loud buzzing sound coming from the nightstand. He sat on bed and took the phone that was on the nightstand. It was Osamu's phone alarm.

Rintarou looked beside him to see the love of his life hugging his waist.

"'Samu, 'Samu!" Rintarou said trying to wake  his husband.

"Hm?" Osamu responded with a groan and a tired face.

"You have to finish the work sheets"

Osamu got up and slowly walked back to the office room that was connected with their bedroom. He continued doing his pile of work sheets.

Hours passed and Rintarou felt a hand shaking him back and forth. He woke up and saw Osamu in front of him.

"Yes, love?" Rintarou said tiredly.

"I'm sorry"

"Hm? Why are you sorry?" Rintarou was confused.

"I haven't been spending time with you nor Mimi. I'm a terrible father, I'm sorry" Osamu said burying his face into Rintarou's chest.

"Dont say that, you're not a terrible father. You're taking good care of Mimi and me" Rintarou caressed Osamu's cheek.

"I feel terrible, I didn't even gave Mimi a kiss today. She must've think I hate her"

"Hey hey, it's not you're fault okay? You're just doing what's best for us"
"Plus it's for the shop's future after all, I know Mimi would understand" Rintarou gave Osamu a forehead kiss.

"I love you, Rinny"

"I love you too"
"But remember, soon as Mimi wakes up. You have to apologize, okay? She cried earlier"

"Will do" Osamu said kissing Rintarou's hand.

It was the next morning, Osamu finally had the guts to face his daughter and apologized. Her daughter was relieved that he still loved her, and would always do. He explained on how he was busy for over a week, getting phone calls and being in the office room all day. Osamu was actually planning to open 'Onigiri Miya' in every state of Japan. If that's possible. He just wanted his family to live a nice life, which was both happy and comfortable.

That's not all, as Osamu was done with his one week of torture he decided they should finally go  to a family vacation. They don't know where to go yet, but there definitely heading somewhere. It's easy to say that they were a happy family indeed.
