It was Aiko who was taking care of Ren, it's been 3 days since haruchiyo became busier with his work.

By that time, Aiko was also busy doing all the paperwork for their upcoming business. So Ren spends most of his time with the coloring and painting materials given to him by Mikey.

Later that night, haruchiyo came home late, to the point that Ren and Aiko already had their dinner.

"I'm sorry, I got caught in traffic earlier," haruchiyo said and kissed Aiko on her cheeks.

"That's fine, rest first, you must be tired"

"Yeah, but suddenly, I feel alive seeing your angelic face" he pinched Aiko's cheeks.

They both giggled. A few more minutes, after Haruchiyo ate the dinner Aiko prepared for him, he suddenly remembered Ren.

"Where's Ren?"

"He's watching the tv, you should go and check on him," She said while doing the dishes.

Haruchiyo checked the living room if he was there, turns out Ren wasn't there. He walked upstairs thinking that Ren was watching the tv in his room, but he's still not around.

"Aiko, I can't seem to find Ren, do you think he's hiding somewhere?" haruchiyo asked Aiko who just finished doing the dishes.

"Huh? What do you mean?" she asked and checked the living room, turns out he wasn't really there.

They noticed the coloring materials scattered on the rug and a piece of paper.

Haruchiyo picked it up, he was shocked and smiling at the same time after seeing Ren's drawing.

The drawing shows a family who's hanging out wherever it is. Aiko covered her mouth and almost cried after interpreting the meaning behind his drawing.

"I'm sorry Ren, Mom's gotten busier these past few days."

They searched every corner of the house thinking that Ren might be hiding, sulking somewhere's corner. But he's not there.

"What if he Ran away from us? Because we didn't prioritize him over work?" Haruchiyo gulped in his own words.

Suddenly, they heard the door open so they rushed downstairs, hoping it'll be Ren.

"T-Takeomi?!" they looked at each other confused.

"You guys... Ren came to my house crying and complaining about you two being busy.." he facepalmed while saying those words.

Suddenly Ren appeared, hiding from Takeomi's back with his teary eyes.

"Ren... We're sorry" Haruchiyo approached him and patted Ren's head.

"Don't worry, we'll make it up to you next time, right, Aiko?" they all looked at her, she smiled and nodded.

"Of course, where do you want to hang out?"

"Amusement park" he replied.

"Since everything seems to be alright now, can I go home?" Takeomi butted in just to ask that.

"Only if you want, but you can sta-"

"No, you should head home brother" Haruchiyo cut off Aiko's words and smiled irritatingly at Takeomi.

"HAHA, someone's scared"

"Just kidding" omi added.

"But still, thank you for accompanying Ren here"

"And sorry for the trouble"

"No problem, just don't make him cry again" Takeomi left after saying those words.

Silence remained between the three of them, not until Aiko spoke.

"Ren, I'm sorry because Mom's been working a lot these past few days..and I didn't get to spend more time with you, But.."

"But?" haruchiyo raised one of his eyebrows.

"What is the meaning of this?" Aiko showed Ren's drawing on the back of the paper they saw earlier.

Haruchiyo smirked and then gulped after seeing what was on the drawing. Aiko, Haruchiyo, Ren, and seven more girls beside them.

"Dada said that he'll give me seven more sisters so I included them" Ren explained.

Haruchiyo remained silent and just looked away, avoiding Aiko's gaze.

Aiko sighed in relief. "I thought my son was starting to be a womanizer, turns out it was her sisters- Wait WHAT?!" Haruchiyo ran as soon as Aiko figured out Ren's words.

"Haruchiyo! How am I supposed to bear 7 more children huh!?" She also ran and chased him holding a Cauldron.

Ren was laughing hard watching his parents like this, for him, this is better.

Few more minutes of running, they both stopped, catching their breath.

Aiko carried Ren in her arms until Ren fell asleep. She laid him on his bed and caressed Ren's forehead and kissed it. "I'm sorry Ren, your dada and I love you so much.."

Haruchiyo entered the room, topless because he had just taken a bath.

"Now that Ren's asleep, Shall we work together for his younger sister?"
