The sound of a wooden spoon hitting against metal was normal for Toshinori to come home to, however the sobbing that was accompanying it wasn't.

"Nami!" Toshi called as he took of his shoes and put them by the blue flats that belonged to the other member of this household. The sobs became muffled and Toshinori could tell his beloved daughter was trying to not let him know she was hurting.

He walked into the kitchen to see Nami covering her mouth and clutching the towel so tightly her knuckles were white. What sent him into panic was that the blue towel was turning purple and Nami was slowly losing her colour.

"Nami?" He called again and the towel fell exposing the large gash coveringthe span of her palm. He sucked in a deep breath and parent mode was activated. Within seconds he had an ambulance on the way and was securing a new towel around the wound whilst applying pressure.
