Bloody Inheritance (Complete)

Can't stop thinking about toji biting that fish. Should I tell my therapist?

You walked into the school office with quick steps, eyes finding Tsumiki. She was sitting in a blue chair, looking into her lap, fiddling with a fidget spinner.

"Sumi!" You smiled softly at her. The little girl stopped spinning the red object to look up at you, cheeks red from possibly crying. Your heart ached from the sunken expression on the usually bubbly girl's face.

"Hey, bunny..." She hopped up and walked to you as you pulled her into a hug. Her arms barely hugged you back but you squeezed her tightly to show her you are here and care for her.

Pulling back you touched her cheeks, "Are you okay?" You knew she wasn't but she nodded anyway.

"Mhm..."

"Okay..." She wasn't going to talk to you now, probably later. "Let's get you out of here..." Moving to the counter you picked up the pen and began to write the date and time on the sign-out sheet.

The lady at the desk shook her head, dangly earrings moving back and forth as she looked up at you over her squared glasses, "Bunny, you are more a parent to her than that father of hers."

You gave her a lopsided smile, "Yeah...I know..."

Getting Tsumiki to the car you helped her into the backseat. After making sure she was secured and safe you closed her door and got into the passenger seat. "Drive the speed limit please." You whispered to Sukuna as he pulled out of the parking lot.

He seemed to pout a little but otherwise, he drove the speed limit. Tsumiki was quiet the entire time, spinning her fidget spinner with lazy flicks. You remember the first time something like this happened she was more optimistic...

'It's okay, he must have been busy!'

The second time...

'He must have gotten caught at work...'

The third time.....

'Why does he keep forgetting me...'

After that, she seemed to become numb to it.

You tried to talk to Mr. Fushiguro about it but he only shrugged, 'Sometimes I get held up... I try my best bunny you know that.'

He was such an awful father, and you tried to make every excuse for him in the book. He couldn't afford a nanny and he could barely afford you. Megumi is trying to help as much as he can but he worked so much to pay for his own school. There was no one able to truly take care of the little girl.

"So... what did you spend your money on?"

"I bought this..." She held up the small toy. "...and some other stuff..."

"Oh... what did you do today?"

"Nothing..."

You tried to talk to the girl but she was closed off. You went silent trying to think of ways to cheer her up.

Sukuna noticed how you kept looking in the rearview mirror, staring at the little girl in the backseat. He smelt the salty tears and knew the gremlin had been crying. He didn't see a huge problem with the situation. Truthfully he didn't understand why they wouldn't allow the child to walk home. If anyone asked about his two cents that's how he'd look at it. But the girl was soft and emotional just like you and her sadness made you sad.

He cleared his throat as he looked at the girl in the rearview mirror. "Do you want to go to the arcade?"

The girl lifted her head up a bit, that seemed to pique her interest, "Which one? I don't like the one for babies..."
