The description matches

The stranger stared at Kimiko for a moment before his sense returned to him.

How terrible would I be to just take a young child from her home and everything she's known up until now with no remorse?

He pushed back his intrusive thoughts as he reached for the tray across her lap

"I'll just take this from you" he whispers to her sleeping state grabbing the tray he stood up straight turning to leave but paused because he felt bad about the position she fell asleep in. Sighing out he faces towards her again returning to her bedside.

He reached underneath her body and laid her down properly on the bed, adjusting the blanket around her body as a caring person would...

He couldn't explain it, but he instinctively secured the blanket around her small body tighter when suddenly she grabbed his sleeve and he paused for a moment, frozen in place he was surprised; he was sure that sedative worked. There's no way her body should be able to move let alone react quick enough to grab on to him, she's whispering something but it's unclear to him

"Huh" he turns his head towards her leaning closer to her face when she doesn't stop clutching him

"Don't... make me... sleep alone... again...pa.....pa" she spoke softly muttering out her last words before light snores came from her lips. He partially ignored her statement thinking she might be a bit delirious from the fever and possibly the medicine, but her grip on him was real and it would not soften.

The stranger who was actually very tired himself decided a nap wouldn't be bad and laid onto the floor directly next to Kimiko's bedside and drifted to sleep soon after her while she held on to him tightly.

Once the sedative wore off Kimiko woke up still clinging to the strangers sleeve, only when she noticed the colored pattern wasn't the familiar checkered one her father is notoriously known for, did she finally let him go.

She could identify color and shapes again but everything else was still unclear. The fabric she was clutching on to is a deep red shaded kimono and she was severely confused now.

She leaned up in bed and stared at the man sleeping next to her his features are hard to read from the distance but the closer she leaned in, she noticed right away he only had a single set of human eyes.

Who is this man?

He looks just like father... identical really

She leaned closer into the strangers personal space and reached her hand out to tap his nose. His eyes shot open and he was instantly alarmed when he noticed how close the child was to his face.
