Kazuha walked with Heizou to the living room. Daisuke followed his dad as he spottet Lyney and Lynette on the other couch. Lynette waved at him calmly as the boy rushed towards them excited. Lyney sat upside down on the couch, looking grumpy at the ceiling as the boy poked him under Lynette's close watch.

"Ouch!" He rubbed his temple as he turned to notice an excited looking Daisuke holding a deck of playing cards. "Daisuke!" Lyney set herself nornal in the couch as the boy and Lynette cat next to him.

"Hi! What's wrong, you look sad" Lyney crossed his arms.

"Ajax and Yoimiya changed schools and can't see them!" Lynette flickered her tail and she started patting it again. The girl with the red string of hair sighed. "Maybe i need to grow up the silly friendship..." Daisuke looked sadden at his cards.

"Can i try make you happy?" Lynette gave him a not while Lyney dodged the question. Daisuke took his cards and shuffled them before shoving them in Lyney's face. "Pick a card!" The girl reluctantly took a card and looked at it.

"Do i have to say what card i got or-"

"No, you have to keep it secret!" He said as he signaled her to place it back in the deck.

As the kids played their little magic tricks, Scara walked by with his cup of green tea. He noticed the look on Lyney's face and immediately could tell she was still feeling down. He sat next to the kids as Lyney forced a smile at Daisuke's magic trick.

"That was... adorable, thanks..." he gave the card back to him, resting on her mother's arm.

"Still upset?" Scara glupped his tea, letting the cup to the side and stroking Lyney's hair. The girl nodded.

"I just wish they told me they leave!..." Scara took her in his lap and Lynette watched Daisuke's trick.

"Well, if my and your dad decided to move and tell you last minute, you won't be able to tell them, wouldn't, you?" His daughter shook her head, sighing. "Maybe they didn't know... but i believe they wish they told you and Lynette about this..." Lyney looked at his mom.

"Maybe you're right... but i still miss them..." Scara shook his head.

"Of course you do, but now is nothing we can do,... go play with Daisuke, i believe you may want to show him some of your magic tricks too, no?" Lyney nodded exactly as he took the casquet of thomes her mother handed her.

Seeing his kids more at ease, the dark haired man puffed and walked towards his husband and their friends on the other cough. Kuki smiled as he came along.

"Changes at school?" Scara nodded.

"She seems stubborn to keep stuff the same..."

Scara closed the book as Kazuha started snoring. The freckled man was asleep between his daughters, holding them close. Scara couldn't help but smile at this view. He sat up and slowly walked out the door, not realizing a certain cat was secretly watching him.

The man walked in his and Kazuha's room, where he left the book on his desk. Scara sigh to himself as he looked at his spouse's night stand. He couldn't help but feel uneasy about something, not even he couldn't tell what. He remembered Kazuha had cought quite a bit in the recent days, but he put all the flue... but he also blinked a lot, snacked more often-

"No! I shouldn't think, he sat a lot on the phone lately, i shall send him to an eye control rather than assume stuff-" He stopped as he heard the door open and a pair of ears peeking trough it. He sigh. "Come on, Lynette" the girl came in, closing the door behind her. Scara smiled as he signaled her to come in his lap.

"Dad is snoring again..." she said as she flopped hear ears.

"Yeah, he does this sometimes, do you want my ear plugs?" Lynette looked powdy.

"No..." she looked at the book on the desk and took it in for a look. "He also smells weird..., can i stay with you?" Scara chuckled.

"Sure, since you don't have school tomorrow, i will let it slide that you stay up so late." She wagged slowly her tail and she got down from Scara's lap and sat on the bed.

"May i read a story for you?" The dark haired man smiled at the sweet offer.

"You may, my dear"
