Chapter 07 - Cookies 🍪

"Nanami, where is Satoru?" You asked when you met a tall blond man in the corridor.

"Gojo-san, probably in his office or in the connecting room."

You remember this place. Just an open room with couches where you can relax. At least he helped you find it. Satoru might as well be in class right now, which is why you didn't want to call him to disturb. You prefer to find him and meet him peacefully.

Besides, he'll ignore his work responsibilities when he finds out you're here with the kids.

You don't want him to get scolded again for this... Because it's sad that even though your husband is a grown up and strong man, his former teacher is able to beat him if he does something.

Besides, it sounds weird when Nanami talks to you the same way he talks to Satoru...

"Nanami, please call me by my name. You don't have to use your last name. Besides, I'm not Satoru. You can call me by my name."

He nodded slightly.

"Oh, and..." You reached into the shelf under the baby stroller and gave him a paper bag. "Satoru said you couldn't find good bread anymore... While I was making cookies to bring it, I thought I might try baking bread. I hope you enjoy mine at least a little."

He looked into the bag to see a fresh loaf of bread.

"It may not be big, but I wanted it to be handy enough. And to see if you like it. If you want more, I can bake it." You gave him a smile.

"You didn't have to. Shall I pay you?" He asked suddenly.

"Oh no! I don't want anything. You know... I don't work and sometimes I get bored. When Satoru is not at home and the children are sleeping or playing, I cook or bake. At least I have something to do, and when Satoru comes back, he'll eat it all."

The blond sighed.

"Gojo-san always had a big appetite..."

"You knew him at school, right?"

"He hasn't changed. He's still annoying."

You nervously smiled. Sure, some people hate your husband. But at least Nanami is his friend...

"Without exaggeration. He's not that annoying. He just has a lot of energy."

"He's always been selfish."

"He's not selfish." you said with a small smile. "He is a good father and takes care of everyone."

You reached out to the pram to stroke the children's cheeks.

"...You're right."

His eyes looked into the pram to see two white-haired children lying there.

He stopped beside them and reached slowly to them, adjusting your daughter's blanket.

Her blue eyes looked up at him as she stretched her little hands forward. You grabbed her little hand with your fingers.

Nanami had a hard time imagining Gojo as a father. But now in front of him is a woman with a wedding ring on her finger. And in the stroller are two small children who look identical to Gojo.

That's why it woke up his thoughts. Gojo was able to take care of him and others around him.

He cared especially for his family.
