Note: About the father-son relationship between Ryoma and Nanjiro. Ryoma's Point of View.
Summary: The Echizens have a strange relationship as a family. A boy and his father, how do they compare? Ryoma takes some time to reflect about himself and his always perverted, scruffy, and immature father. Originally titled "How."
I walked out to the back of the house, only to see him in his typical attire, a dusty brown colored monk robe. I don't know why he wears it when he isn't even a monk.
He is by the large bell (why do we have that again?). His foot is intertwined in the long rope chord. He is lying on his side, Roman style. His arm is propping up his head, with dark matted hair. Unkept and unshaven, as always. He is snoring loudly, a magazine in front of him. No doubt it's has something to do with girls and bathing suits.
How do we relate at all again?
His hair is a dark chocolate brown
My hair is a dark black with a green tinge.
His eyes correspond to the color of his hair.
My eyes are a golden yellow.
His skin is tan.
Mine is peach.
He always sports a monk robe, matching his hair and eye color.
I always sport a white polo, shorts, and my white cap.
He's open about things.
I'm always closed.
He always reads magazines.
I always drink Ponta.
He is unafraid to become close to others.
I try to be as reserved as possible.
He is goofy.
I am serious.
He chases girls.
I avoid them.
He is sociable.
I don't do small talk.
And yet,
We both love challenges.
We both confront those who are bothersome.
We both are confident.
We both are strong.
We both never lose.
And most importantly,
We both love tennis.
Tch. Maybe this old man isn't all that bad.

"Heh, heh. Boy! If you wanted to read one of my magazines, all you have to do is ask. Don't be shy!"
I pick up my racket and a ball.
The ball elevates into the air,
I swing my racket and
--SMACK--
"Oww! Hey, ungrateful brat! Come back here!"
Scratch that. Oyaji is that bad. Darn perverted father of mine.
A/N: Yay! I know, its really short. But I just felt like writing it. ^^
