°Enji's pov°
It was a late November night when enji was lying awake in bed. All he could do was think. Think about Shoto, Fuyumi, Natsuo, Rei and most importantly Touya. What he had done to his children was unforgivable.

He hated lying in bed without being able to sleep. So he got out of bed and went into the kitchen and boiled the kettle. While doing so he remembered the screams from his youngest son. The screams, oh god the screams. They still haunt him to this day.

°flashback°
"MOM PLEASE!" Shoto screamed at his mother. That was enough to snap Rei out of her state of mind. "OH MY GOD SHOTO IM SO SORRY!" Rei yelled. Next thing he remembered was his little girl running into his bedroom shaking him awake. "Daddy, DADDY, DADDY!" Fuyumi's screams got louder. "what is is Fuyumi?" "MOMA, MOMA HUT SHO MOMA HURT SHOTO DADDY HIS FACE IS RED!" That was enough to make Enji jump out of bed litteraly. He ran down the hall thoughts rushing through his head and then he heard it. "MOMA PLEASE STOP IT HURTS PLEASE!" Shoto pleaded. Enji ran into the kitchen to see water on the floor, the kettle on tge ground and his son with a burn scar on his face. Nothing like he had seen woth Touya. EVER.

°End of flashback°
Tears started to roll down Enji's face but he quickly wiped them away when he heard soft footsteps heading towards the kitchen.
"Hey dad." Fuyumi said quietly. "Want a cup of tea Fuyumi?" Enji asked his daughter. Fuyumi was quite shocked at the gesture from her father but replied with a nod.

°Fuyumi's pov°
Fuyumi looked at the clock realising what time it was. Luckily she wasnt at work tomorrow so she wouldn't be tired. Her father was sat across from her looking down at his cup of tea. Why was he awake he had patroll first thing in the morning. Right? She took a slight glimpse at her father and noticed something something she hadn't noticed before. There were tea marks on his face. Had he been crying? "Hey dad?" Fuyumi asked "yes Fuyumi?" Enji replied silently. "Have you been crying?"
