Domyouji POV

Today is my beautiful wife, Makino's birthday, yes, i still call her Makino even though we have been married for ten years, i was thinking of what present to give her when i suddenly heard the door open, i look up and see Hiroto carrying some sort of papers, and Misaki holding art materials, Hiroto closed the door after entering, i looked at them confused.

"Oto-san, please help us make a letter for oka-san"Misaki said cutely, i stand up from my chair and guide them to the couch.

"What do you want to put in the letter?" i ask the both of them, they both look up, the trait that they both got from their mother if they are thinking about something.

"Well, me and Mi-chan decided to put real flowers at the letter, but Tama ba-chan said that real flowers will wither quickly, so we went here to ask for your help" Hiroto said, blushing,

i freeze, i'm not really the best when it comes to writing and doing arts and crafts, as Makino pointed out to me, that when it comes to writing, reading and pronouncing Japanese is really bad, like REALLY BAD, that's why i always let her double check my emails so that they will perfect with no misspellings. and arts and crafts, i almost burned down the house when i was little just to turn on the glue gun that nee-chan was using for her project. ever since then, i steer away.

"Why don't you ask the Maids to help both of you?" i ask them again, Misaki huffs.

"Because you know oka-san more than them, and we saw earlier that oka-san was really tired, since she was taking care of Tsuki-chan all night, so me and onii-chan want to make her feel better by writing a letter, since Sugisaki-sensei said that writing a letter to someone you love will help them feel better" Misaki rambled and i immediately feel guilty.

I was so busy last night with work, sending emails and conference calls that i have no time to help Makino to take care of our newborn daughter, Tsukiko, since she had fever yesterday, and all night she was just crying.

"Yosh, let's do this, Hiroto, you must help me since my Japanese is so bad okay, and Misaki, no more putting glitters in papers again, us three will be in serious trouble again, okay?" i ask and both of them and they nod, and we started to write.

halfway to our writing, we heard the door slam, all of us looked up startled and see Makino carrying Tsukiko who was crying so loud, i look at Makino and see that she was really tired, with bags forming under her eyes, and they look red, assuming that she also cried.

Hiroto and Misaki hid the half-written letter, away from their mother, i stand up and walk to her, and she immediately hands me Tsukiko, who cease her crying and turns to small whimpers to silent, i look down and she is already sleeping.

"Are you kidding me, almost all night she was crying non-stop and here she is in your arms and she stops completely. She really doesn't like me, she only likes you, what the heck?!?!?" She rambled while crying, i hug her, mindful of a sleeping baby in my chest, Makino was shaking and sobbing, i feel so bad, today's her birthday and this happened, i embrace her until she stops crying and pulls away, her eyes are so red and swollen, she sniffs while she wipes her face.

"I'm sorry for taking it out on you, i'm just so exhausted and tired, she was crying all night so i didn't get to sleep much" she said, i shake my head.

"It should be me that is sorry, i should have help you last night, but i was so busy with work that's why i couldn't help you, even if i wanted to" i said, ashamed, she playfully taps my head, smiling.

"Its okay, since you took time off for christmas and you have to juggle everything, and it doesn't help that my Husband is the Director of the biggest company in Japan" she said, teasing me.

"Why you...." I didn't get to finish what i was gonna say when Hiroto and Misaki walked up to us. They looked nervous, i shifted Tsukiko in my arms. They both looked at each other, Hiroto talked first.

"Happy Birthday Oka-san, me and Mi-chan have a present to you, it may not be a lot, but we want to help you feel better" Hiroto said then looks at Misaki.

"Yeah, we want to help you feel better since you have to take care of Tsuki-chan all night, so our present is a letter we wrote for you, well half of this is written by Oto-san, but while you were crying earlier, we secretly wrote the rest of the letter and added some designs in it to look pretty, hope you'll like" Misaki said shyly.

i smile at the both of them, Makino slowly took the letter, she carefully opened it and i watch her read what's inside.

I see the expressions in her face, it changed many times as she continued to read the letter, by the time she finished reading, she was crying again, Misaki immediately went to her and held her hand.

"Mama, are you okay?, why are you crying?" Misaki asked Makino who was still crying, she only calls Makino "Mama" when she is crying, i see Makino shaking her head, she crouched down to Misaki, she smiles.

"No sweetheart, it's just happy tears, I'm crying because I'm really happy, I love you both so much, it already made me feel better, Hiroto, come here and let me hug you both" Makino said as Hiroto went to ger and she hugs them both.

"Thank you for the letter, I will forever cherish it, I love you both, and Tsukiko so much" she said smiling as she hugs them more tighter, in which made Misaki giggle and Hiroto grunting as he want to go away from the hug, I smile seeing this, then she looks up at me.

"And I also want to thank your Father for writing the first half, even though there so many misspellings on it" she said, and my eyes widen, I look at Hiroto, he immediately puts his hands up. Makino looks at me and Hiroto, she laughs.

"But I still love you, without you, I will never have them writing a letter for me, Thank you Domyoji, I love you" she said to me and I crouch as well and hug her.

"I love you too" I said hugging her tighter and Hiroto hugged Makino from behind, laughing, and Misaki hugged me from behind, laughing as well, we both laugh, in which made Tsukiko wake up, but she didn't cry and just babbles, I smile even wider, and see Makino smile too, and all of us Laugh.

"Happy Birthday Makino, i love you so much, without you, i'm still beating up people out of nowhere" i said, and she laughs.

"I love you too my adorable octopus head brat, well not anymore" she giggles, in the past, those nicknames will tick me off, but now, I consider it as her endearments for me.

I laugh as well, the two kids is still hugging us, we both laugh, we were laughing so loud until we heard a camera click, I look up and see the Wit-, um, my Mother holding a camera, smiling. We smile at her as well.

"What a beautiful Family you got, Tsukasa" she said, and I nod at her, smiling.

"Yep, I love my Family, they are so beautiful" I said and look at Makino, she smiles at me and I just kissed in which made Hiroto and Misaki yelped out in Disgust and my mother laughing.
