"Congratulations Tezuka!" exclaimed everyone when Tezuka entered Kawamura's Sushi. It happened to be a surprise party for Tezuka. At first Tezuka was a bit surprise but now he was happy on the inside. Though the others couldn't read it because Tezuka didn't express his emotions. All of his closest friends, since middle school, were there.

"Thank you everyone." said the 21 year old Tezuka, with a small smile that appeared. It had been reported all over the media, that the Tezuka Kunimitsu had made it Pro at a very young age.

-SNAP- Fuji widen his smile. He caught the rarest smile on camera. "You let your guard down Tezuka."

Tezuka's smile immediately turned into a frown. "Give me that camera Fuji." Tezuka demanded. Everyone else backed off, because they didn't want to get involved.

Fuji handed over his camera. He knew if he didn't, there was going to be serious trouble. Even his sadist mind couldn't help him out now. Fuji didn't want to remember what Tezuka did to him in his senior year of high school. "Don't break it. That camera is expensive." Fuji said. His camera went into the hands of Tezuka's.

Tezuka opened the small slot on the side of the camera, and took out the memory chip. "I'll keep this." he said in his stoic tone. He put the chip inside his pocket. Tezuka didn't like when some people teased him like that. Tezuka doesn't like to be mean like that, but he had to do it to set some people straight.

Fuji frowned. 'My favorite landscape photos are on that.'

Everyone was quiet for along time. Kikumaru couldn't take the silence anymore. "Let's eat now!"

"Yeah…I'm hungry." Oishi said slowly, following along with Kikumaru. Soon everyone else slowly agreed.

After Tezuka gave back Fuji's camera, everything else went on normally. However Fuji still wanted his photos. Tezuka didn't give it back.

XD-Tezuka-DX

After Tezuka's celebration party, Tezuka went back to his place. For now, he stayed in a nice studio apartment.

"Good evening Tezuka-san." greeted the front desk lady.

"Good evening." Tezuka replied in his tone that didn't express any emotion.

"Tezuka-san, there is someone here to see you."

"Does he have an appointment? If not, could you please tell him I don't have time for an interview." Tezuka said.

"No. She doesn't have an appointment nor is she a reporter." said the front desk lady.

"Then I have no time for fans." Tezuka said.

"Oh, it's no fan…" before she could finish, Tezuka already excused himself and headed to the elevator. She sighed. 'I'm sorry Tezuka-san. She wouldn't listen to me, and she was so cute that it was hard to say no.' The front desk lady felt guilty.

XD-Tezuka-DX

Tezuka walked down the hall. When he got close to his place, he noticed a tiny little girl sitting on the ground against his apartment door.

The little girl noticed a guy walking up to her. "Hi." she smiled looking up at the tall guy.

"Hello." Tezuka greeted. "Excuse me. You're sitting in front of my place."

The little girl stood up and apologized. "I'm sorry Kunimitsu."

This caught Tezuka ears. "How do know me?" he said kind of in an orderly tone. 'What am I saying? I'm all over the media.'

"I've been waiting to meet you for a long time." she said with a small blush. "Well…for only four years since I'm only 5, but it seems like forever to me."

"I'm sorry but I don't know you." Tezuka said. "I'm also not in the mood for fans."

"I'm no fan." said the little girl as she hid her blushing face. 'This is the first time I'm meeting him live.'

"Then who are you?" Tezuka asked. He seemed to think that this little girl wasn't going to leave unless she got something from him. 'I'll just sign a tennis ball for her.'

"I'm Tezuka Aiko." Aiko smiled up at Tezuka.

XD-Tezuka-DX

Tezuka didn't know what to think anymore. All of a sudden he couldn't think straight. 'Tezuka? Tezuka Aiko? Wait. Do I know a Tezuka Aiko…no I don't.'

"Are you ok Tezuka?" asked Aiko, seeing that Tezuka hadn't blink for a while.

Tezuka finally broke out of thought. "You're Tezuka who?"

"Aiko." she said.

"I'm sorry, but I don't know you." Tezuka walked to his door. "Wait here. Let me go inside and get you that autograph."

Aiko stared blankly at him. "I don't want an autograph. I only came to see you." Tezuka turned around.

"Then please hurry and take your picture." Tezuka ordered. He wanted this whole situation to be over with, because he didn't see the 'Tezuka' thing coming. Tezuka had let his guard down for the second time in the same day.

"Why?" Aiko tilt her head to the side in confusion. "I don't even have a camera."

'I should have just brought Fuji's camera and gave it to her.' Tezuka thought. "If you have no business, please leave. Your parents might get upset that you're up here alone."

"No they won't." Aiko respond. "Can I come in?"

'Wait, what? Did she ask to come in? Into a complete stranger's house?' Tezuka thought. "No. Let me go call the front desk." Letting his guard down the third time, Tezuka left the front door open as he went to grab the phone. Aiko walked in.

'He has a nice place. I think I'll have good nights rest.' Aiko thought as she made her comfortable on the couch.

Tezuka was so close to dial the last number when he saw her sitting on his couch. His eyes widen. He put the phone the down and walked up to her. "Excuse me…Tezuka-chan. You cannot walk into some stranger's house."

"You're not a stranger. I know you, but you don't know me." Aiko smiled.

"Explain." Tezuka demanded. Aiko smiled sweetly.

"You're my Daddy." Tezuka was speechless for the first time. He did not expect this at all; he let his guard down the fourth time.

XD-Tezuka-DX

"You have no proof." Tezuka defended himself. "I never loved someone."

Aiko opened her small bag and pulled out an envelope. "Of course I have proof. I have a brain you know. I knew you won't believe me, so I brought proof!" Aiko smiled as she raised the envelope in the air.

Tezuka didn't see that one coming. He quickly took the envelope from her and ripped it open. He had to know.

Aiko could see him scanning the papers over and over. She smiled. Tezuka looked up from the papers to her. 'She doesn't look anything like me.'

"Excuse me." Tezuka said casually. He walked over to the phone and started to dial a certain number. Tezuka didn't like to get help from anyone but he had to. He only knew one person that could tell if these papers were real or not. "Inui. I need you here at my place right away. Bye."

Tezuka walked back and sat down on the other couch that was across from Aiko. They both were quiet and staring at each other.

'This is impossible. I don't have a daughter.' Tezuka said in his thoughts.

'Yes you do. You're my daddy. My daddy, Tezuka Kunimitsu.' Aiko thought happily in her thoughts.

Less than 5 minutes, there was a knock at the front door. Tezuka quickly walked over and answered it. It was Inui.

'That was fast.' Aiko thought as she peeked from the behind the couch. What she didn't know is that Inui only lived a floor level down.

"What's the sudden call Tezuka? This is the first." Inui asked. Inui knew it wasn't like Tezuka to call him and ask for anything. Tezuka looked over towards the couch to only see Aiko's forehead and eyes staring back.

"Are these papers official?" Tezuka asked as he handed over the documents to Inui. Inui looked at them to see that it was a birth certificate and with some other important papers.

"Yes. They are official…" Inui's voice trailed off when he started to the read the papers more carefully. "Tezuka. Since when did you have a daughter?" Tezuka didn't respond.

Inui looked up and happened to notice two small eyes staring at him from over the couch. "Is that your daughter, Aiko?" Inui asked. He already remember her name from the papers and also because he's a data collector.

"Hi!" Aiko popped her head up when she heard the taller guy said her name.

"Ii Data." Inui smirk as he pulled out his note and begin writing. Slowly Inui walked to couch and continued to write.

Tezuka stood by the door, like a statue. His mind was in another world. 'Aiko is really my daughter? I have a daughter? I'm a father? Since when?'

"Who are you?" Aiko asked. She went and sat next to Inui on the other couch.

"My name is Inui Sadaharu." Inui responded. "And you are Tezuka Aiko?" he asked with a smile.

"Yeah!" smiled Aiko. Aiko motioned Inui to move down lower. Inui leaned down and Aiko whispered in his ear. "That's my daddy over there." Aiko whispered. She pointed to Tezuka. Tezuka was still standing there, his thoughts in another world. Inui couldn't help but chuckle.

"This is very good data indeed." Inui said.

"Data? What's data?" Aiko questioned.

"Data is a gather of facts from which a conclusion or conclusions may be drawn." Inui explained. Aiko stared at him blankly.

"Can you say that again?"

This was the first time Inui was letting someone look inside his notebook. "For example. This is Tezuka's file. The records I keep about him. Tennis to his personal lifestyle." Inui said. He showed Aiko his data on Tezuka.

"Oh! You mean D-A-T-A?" Aiko asked. Inui nodded. Now she understood. "Gotcha!"

'Cool.' Aiko thought as she looked at the information inside the notebook. "By the way Inui-sempai. You spelled 'personal' wrong."

Inui looked at Aiko. "What do you mean?" Inui didn't like where this was going. He was being corrected by a five year old.

"You used the wrong 'personal'. You used 'personnel', which relates to businesses. But, 'personal' is the one your using…you need to know how to spell right Inui-sempai."

Inui stared at her. "Are you this smart?" Inui asked straight forward. Inui thought for a bit. 'Well, she is Tezuka's daughter after all.'

"No. I only like spelling." Aiko smiled. "I like spelling out W-O-R-D-S, its fun. When I learn to spell the W-O-R-D, I also understand a little bit of the meaning."

Inui then understood why she had spelled 'data' before. Inui smiled. "I-I D-A-T-A." he spelled out. Aiko giggled.

Inui opened to a new page and began writing some new data. Aiko sat next to him and watched him write. Tezuka was still at the door thinking in deep thoughts.

'…I have a daughter.'

XD-Tezuka-DX

Tezuka was sitting at the table drinking his favorite of tea. He didn't know what to do now. Tezuka looked over at Inui. Inui was working on his notebook and his daughter was sleeping on his lap.

"Inui. Is she really my daughter?" Tezuka asked. Tezuka knew Aiko was his daughter, but he still couldn't believe it. Inui looked over at him.

"The documents say you're 99.99% the father." Inui stated.

"I'm the father, but why now? Where's her mother? Why 5 years later?" Tezuka continued to question. Inui gave Tezuka a weird look.

"You really don't remember who could be the mother?"

Tezuka stared at his tea. "No, I don't. I don't remember ever being in love or fallen in love." Inui looked down at his lap to see Aiko sleeping peacefully.

"She doesn't look like you, except for the serious dark brown eyes and skin tone. Her hair is a shade darker than yours." Inui describe her description. Inui smirked. "What makes her part from you is that she expresses her emotion. She's not as stoic like you."

Tezuka glared at Inui. However Tezuka couldn't continue, since he had so much on his mind. "Inui. Its time for me to go to bed. I really need some rest." Inui nodded.

"I'll be going then." Inui said as carefully lift Aiko off his lap, trying not to wake her. It didn't work. One small move woke Aiko up.

"Inui-sempai? Where you going?" Aiko asked still sleepy. Before Inui could respond, Aiko buried her head and fell back asleep. Inui smiled.

"I think you'll be ok." Inui said to Tezuka. Tezuka nodded. "Tezuka. I may not be a father myself, but I think you'll get the hang of it. You'll run into some problems like for example, your career...you're a father now."

"What are you trying to say Inui?" Tezuka asked. Inui looked at Tezuka.

"You can't think about yourself anymore. You now have to include Aiko in your life. You have to watch her. Care for her. Love her. I don't know how to put it, but be a father."

Tezuka didn't respond. He only watched his daughter sleeping. Inui walked over and patted his shoulder. "The others and I aren't fathers either, but you have our help and support."

"Thank you." Tezuka nodded. Inui said his good night and left the new family.

After Inui left, Tezuka went into his bedroom and returned with a blanket. He placed the blanket over Aiko. Tezuka sighed heavily. 'How could I let my guard down?'

Tezuka went to his room and fell on his bed. He was going to interrogate the small girl tomorrow…after his tennis training.
