“Papa! I want it to be like Ai's hairstyle! That's what Airi-san does!”Ruby smiled while standing in front of the mirror on the wall of the bedroom the three shared. Hikaru was standing behind her, brushing her hair,”Do you want me to do it when we go to the Dome concert too? It's less than a week away.”

“Yes!”Ruby exclaimed, shifting around on her spot, being excited for the day to come.

“Stop moving, or your side ponytail will look uneven.”

“Sorry Papa!”

Hikaru continued to brush Ruby's hair, making sure to get all the knots out, “What about you, Aqua? Now that the concert is less than a week away, are you excited?”

“Mhm.”Aqua hummed out, brushing his own hair while sitting on the bed, “I am indeed excited to watch Ai perform. B-Komachi will be the first group of idols to perform in the Tokyo Dome. It is a huge achievement for them to go that far and be able to perform on that massive stage. It is anyone's dream to be able to perform there.”He explained, focusing on his hair, “It will be nice to witness it first hand.”

“Yeah! And a way to show support for Ai! Ooo! Can we wear our merch to the concert, Papa?!”

“Of course.”

“Yay!”Ruby clapped her hands happily.

Hikaru hummed, doing Ai's Idol hairstyle on Ruby before fixing her hair and bangs a bit. He smiled, looking in the mirror,”There. How does that look?”

“Perfect! Thanks, Papa!”Ruby turned around and wrapped her arms around him, giving him a hug. Hikaru leaned down with a bright smile,”Anything for my little star!”He began to give Ruby's kisses on her face while Ruby laughed, “Papa! That tickles!”

Aqua placed the brush down and watched Ruby and his father. He smiled softly at the sight, seeing his father and sister as happy as ever.  So, this is how it feels to have a father. Would have things be like this if my father was in the picture, or would it have been a mistake? What if… No. That man was most likely a deadbeat and horrible excuse for a man. If that man stayed and raised me, who knows how I would have turned out.

“Papa!! It tickles!! Stoooppp!!” Ruby giggled out as Hikaru continued placing kisses on her face.

In this new life of mine, I am blessed with a father who is willing to give us the world if he could. That's something many people don't have the fortune to have. Now that I can experience having a father in my life, I'm going to enjoy every single second of it.

Hikaru picked up Ruby from the floor and sat her down next to Aqua, ”Alright you two,”He lowered himself to their level and smiled, “Seijuro-sama will be getting the tickets for Ai's Dome concert. When that day of Ai's Dome concert comes, I want you two to be by my side until we head home. I don't want to lose you two in the massive crowd of fans, got it?”

The twins nodded.

“Good. I don't want to lose you two.”

“Don't worry, Papa, We'll stay by your side during the concert!”

“We are smart enough– well, one of us–”Aqua smiled smugly.

“Hey!”Ruby glared.

“ –is smart enough to not get lost. I'll make sure Ruby doesn't leave.”

Ruby puffed out her cheeks, being annoyed by her twin brother. Hikaru chuckled softly before getting their attention again,”I have one more thing to say.”

Ruby and Aqua stared at Hikaru, waiting.

“I love you.”

Ruby jumped onto her father, wrapping her arms around him with the brightest smile hearing those words, ”I love you too, Papa! Much more!”She laughed out loud. Aqua stared at Hikaru for a moment. With a smile on his face, he hopped down from the bed and joined the hug, “I love you too, Father. Much more.”
