"Speaking"
(Thinking)
*Sound Effects*
What's written on the letter
"Person on the other line"
What happened in Chapter 9:
"That was fun" Sesshomaru pointed out. "I just know that the two of them will have a fairytale like ending"
"Aww, how sweet of you" She joked. "By the way thanks for accompanying me tonight"
"No problem. It is my duty to make my girlfriend happy, isn't it?"
Kagura started turning beet red. "M-man, I still can't get used to that"
"Can't get used to what?"
"You calling me your girlfriend, it's like a new ring to my ear that I have to get used to"
Sesshomaru wrapped his arm around her and kissed her head. "Come closer to me, it's starting to get a little chilly"
Kagura leaned closer to Sesshomaru and rubbed against his white jacket.
"Hey…" She uttered.
"What is it?"
"Do you think we'll last as long as Sango and Miroku?" She asked.
"…I don't know…" He answered.
"Oh…I see"
"But it's worth a shot" He blurted.
Hearing this, Kagura knew that she had a chance with him now, and maybe even in the near future. Who knows? Maybe she'll be the next one wearing a ring on her finger.
Chapter 10: Daddy Dearest
"Papa, Papa, we have a letter from Kagura!" Kanna happily cheered.
"Kanna, how many times have I told you to call Kagura your big sister?" Suikotsu groaned.
"All the time" She smiled. "But it never suits her"
"It's a sign of respect dear. Don't treat her like your brothers do"
"I know, but. Kagura doesn't seem to mind" Kanna gave her father a kiss on his cheek and ran out of her father's study.
(It's been two years since Kagura left, and it's been ages since she's written to us. I wonder what stories she'll tell me this time…?)
Suikotsu opened the envelope and read through his daughter's letter.
"Ahh, I see that she has finally found a place near her work. That's good, and Miroku finally had the guts to propose to Sango, I have to remember to congratulate them…" He uttered to himself. "…Oh, and she's coming here for the holidays!" He happily
said. He then noticed that the last piece of paper had writings on the back, he then flipped it over. "Oh, I see that she'll be bringing someone over..." He then read further and suddenly turned blue. "Sh-she's going to bring…. her BOYFRIEND!" He
screamed.
The holidays are nearing, and as promised Chef Mando closed the Lé Petite Café two weeks before the holidays. During that time, Kagura spent a few days spending time with Sesshomaru. You might think that they spent those few days having a
romantic time together, but, no. On those days, Kagura had to share her family background to her beloved Sesshomaru.
"Okay Sesshomaru, this is the final test. I will show you pictures of my family members and you have to tell me their names and three things about them okay?"
"Alright…"
"Ready…? Okay first picture!"
"His name is Byakuya Brooks. He is your younger brother, loves to eat sushi, and he's gay"
"Correct, okay next picture"
"His name is Moryomaru Nakamura Brooks. He is your younger step brother, he is a few in words, but big in heart"
"Another point for you, okay what about her?"
"Her name is Kanna Nakamura Brooks, she is the youngest half sibling. She's in the third grade, and she dreams of becoming a journalist"
"Very good, you got it correct again. What about this little boy?"
"His name is Hakudoshi Nakamura Brooks, your youngest half brother. He is very blunt when it comes to you, and he's a very smart kid"
"Good, okay just one more, who's this guy?"
"That's pretty easy. He's your father Suikotsu Brooks, he doesn't have the greatest track record in relationships, but, he is a very hardworking man"
"Yay, you got them all right!" She cheered.
"Kagura, could you tell me once again why we are doing this?" He asked.
"Okay, my family loves to investigate strangers, especially the ones I bring home. So this little test will help you help them feel comfortable around you"
"Is that all?"
"Of course not, I'm sure they'll be expecting presents from us as well" She smiled.
"Presents for what exactly?"
"Are you sick in the head? It's Christmas! You've never received or given a Christmas present before?" She joked.
"…No" He uttered.
"Oh…I'm sorry I didn't know…"
"Nah, it's nothing. My family isn't used to these kinds of traditions. I can move on without any gifts –"
"That's where you're wrong" She interrupted. Kagura then scurried to her room and grabbed a small box wrapped in green wrapping paper. She then ran back to her living room and presented it to Sesshomaru. "Ta-da"
"W-what's this?"
"A present for you silly"
(She gave me a present?) "But, I have nothing for you"
"Its okay you already gave me one, remember?" She then held the necklace that was dangling around her neck.
"Thank you…"
Sesshomaru was about to open his gift when Kagura suddenly swats his hand.
"What was that for?"
"Sesshomaru King, you're cheating"
"Cheating, how?"
"You're suppose to open it on December twenty five at twelve o' clock midnight"
"Why?"
"That's the rule. If you open it now, then surprising you is useless" She pouted.
"Okay, okay, I'll open it on that time"
Kagura was overjoyed when Sesshomaru promised to open his gift on Christmas Eve. She then gave him a hug happily saying. "Yes! Thank you Sesshomaru"
"Not a problem…Honey" He whispered.
"…Say that again…" She requested.
"Not a problem…HONEY"
He then gave her a kiss on her luscious red lips. She sat on his lap with her delicate body rubbing against his chest. She wrapped her hands around his neck, bringing him deeper. His hands slid down her back and into her pants, she didn't mind. They
wanted to keep going for hours, but their session was suddenly interrupted when…
*Ring* *Ring* *Ring*
The two stopped holding each other when they heard Kagura's telephone ringing.
"Aren't you going get that?" He asked.
"*Groans* FINE" (Damn it, why did you have to ring now? I was having fun…) She thought.
*Ring* *Ring* *Ri –*
"Hello this is Kagura Brooks may I know who is calling?" She asked.
"KAGURA!" Suikotsu cried.
"F-Father?" She questioned.
"KAGURA! HOW'S MY LITTLE GIRL?"
"I'm fine father, but I'm not little girl anymore" She answered.
"I DON'T CARE, YOU'RE STILL MY LITTLE GIRL" He cried.
"Alright father, you can still call me you're little girl" She uttered. "So, what made you call?" She asked.
"*Clears Throat* Kagura, what's this news about you having a boyfriend?" He asked.
"Ah, I see that you've read my letter –"
"Why didn't you tell me this earlier? You've only known this man for like what? Five months and you've been going out with him for less than a month. Explain yourself" He demanded.
"Wait a minute? I thought it was fine when you let me live alone? I thought that I can make my own decisions when I left the house –"
"Kagura, you're still too young to have a relationship" He cried.
"Father, I'm twenty six years old living in an apartment complex that is located in a city. I'm not a child anymore" She explained. "And why am I explaining to you? You're the one with the crappy relationship record" She scoffed.
"But Kagura, I can't lose you" He cried.
"Father, you still have Kanna" She sighed.
"But she doesn't understand me" He lied.
"Oh come on father, you know that Kanna gets you" She giggled.
"FINE" He groaned. "May I at least have his name?"
"Huh? Didn't you read it in my letter?" She asked.
"Nope, all it says here is that and I quote:…And I'll introduce you to someone very special to me. We've been going out for less than a month now, and he's very eager to meet you. He's a very discreet guy, but I'm sure you'll get to know the
good side I learned to love…And that's all that's written" He answered.
"Oops must've forgotten to put it because I was in a hurry to deliver the letter" She explained.
"Now tell me his name, that discreet part of him doesn't seem very nice"
"But –"
"No buts Kagura"
"But you might not believe me"
"Try me…" He dared.
"H-his name is…." Kagura titled the end of the phone closer to her mouth and whispered Sesshomaru's name.
"A-are you serious!"
"Uhuh…"
Suikotsu took a long pause and started laughing.
"F-Father!"
"Yeah right Kagura, you can't be serious. Even I your father can't believe that you scared me there. You, having a relationship with Sesshomaru King, HAH. You always know how to make me laugh"
"F-Father, I'm not –"
"Oops, Sorry Kagura, we have to stop. I think Hakudoshi stole some of your brother's make up for his experiments again. So anyway see you soon, and I can't wait to meet your 'boyfriend'"
"But Father I –…He hung up?" Kagura placed the phone back on its holder and sat next to Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru held Kagura's chin and caressed her lips. "What seems to be the problem honey?" He asked.
"It's my father. He doesn't believe that I'm dating you now" She bluntly said.
"What!"
"Yeah, he thinks that I'm living in a fantasy where I'm with you"
"Well then, the jokes on him because I'll be surprising all of them with presents" He said with a smile.
"You know what…? You're right; let him believe what he wants to believe. I'm sure he'll be surprised when he sees you in his house"
"That's the spirit"
"Thanks…Dear" She happily said.
It is now December twenty fourth, one day before Christmas. The snow is moderate, the sun is shining, children happily made snow angels and snowmen outside their homes, and as we speak, our couple is heading out to where Kagura was born, her
home in the suburbs.
Jaken stopped the car in front of a simple white house. The house looked like all the other houses surrounding it. It was white, it had a blue roof, a simple brick chimney, its window panes were colored red but the frames were white. It was simple, cozy,
but what made it different from the others. Was that it stored a lot of Kagura's childhood memories
"Mr. King, we are here" Jaken announced.
Sesshomaru looked at Kagura's house, then at Kagura. "So, this is the house?"
"Yup, this is it. Man, the last time I was here was around…Two years ago"
"Two years?"
"Well, I've been looking for a suitable job" She answered.
"That's reasonable"
"Mr. King, shall I take your luggage out of the trunk?" Jaken asked.
"No Jaken, I can handle it"
"Yes Mr. King"
"Kagura I'll open you're door –"
"No, I'm fine. I want it to be a surprise" She insisted. "Well…Here it goes" Kagura said to herself.
Kagura got off the car and walked straight to the pavement. As she stepped out, Kanna readily ran outside to greet her sister.
"KAGURA" She happily greeted. She then leapt towards her sister and received a hug.
"Kanna, how's my little sister doing?"
"I'm not little anymore. I grew one inch from the last time you saw me" She pointed out.
"My, you did grow tall" Kagura exaggeratedly said. "So, where are your brothers –?"
"KAGURA, how's my big sister doing?" Byakuya greeted.
"Byakuya you're looking mighty dashing for the holidays?"
"Well, I could've been prettier if SOMEONE didn't touch my make up!" He growled.
"I HEARD THAT" Hakudoshi answered from the house.
"Well it's the truth you little runt" Byakuya answered back with his tongue sticking out. "So sis, dad told us the funniest story ever"
"Oh really now?"
"Yeah, Papa said that you have a boyfriend, but in your mind" Kanna shared.
"Come on Kagura, why are you hurting yourself? You do know that Sesshomaru King doesn't even know you, why he won't even touch you" Byakuya joked.
"I don't think so" Sesshomaru suddenly interrupted.
When Byakuya heard Sesshomaru's manly voice, he quickly directed his attention to him. "N-no way"
"Jaken, I have the luggage, you may go now"
"Mr. King, what time shall I pick you up?"
"Don't worry Jaken, we'll just call you when we're ready. Now you go have a very merry Christmas yourself alright?"
"Yes, and thank you Mr. King" (Finally, I have time for myself)
Jaken got back into the car and drove off leaving Kagura and Sesshomaru.
"You must be Byakuya, it's very nice to meet you"
Sesshomaru reached his hand out to give him a handshake. He was expecting Byakuya to shake his hand, but, instead he had another way of saying hello.
"*Screams like a flock of fan girls* OH MY GOD, IT REALLY IS HIM! OH, I have to tell dad about this! Oh dad…DADDY" Byakuya rushed back into the house with the seemingly good news.
"Kagura was telling the truth?" Kanna said to herself.
"Of course Kanna, why would I lie to you?"
Kanna looked at Sesshomaru and smiled. "Hi, my name Kanna"
"Nice to meet you Kanna, I'm Sesshomaru" Sesshomaru smiled back.
"Hah, Kagura, I like him" She said.
"Really…! I like him too" Kagura answered as she rubbed her nose against Kanna's. "Okay Kanna I'll let you down"
Kagura placed her little sister down and let her scurry in the house.
"Well, that was something" Sesshomaru uttered.
"Heh, just you wait, because here comes the rest of my family" Kagura warned.
All of a sudden, Moryomaru, Byakuya, Hakudoshi and Kanna stormed out of the house to greet Kagura's boyfriend.
"Wow Kagura, I've underestimated you. There is a somebody who can learn to live with a hot head like you" Hakudoshi mocked.
"Not now Hakudoshi" Kagura grumbled.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Hakudoshi Kagura's SMARTEST sibling" Hakudoshi bragged.
"Hello Hakudoshi I'm –"
"Sesshomaru King, eldest son of the most successful business man Inutaisho King. You are an honored pianist and you are currently dating my sister –"
"Hakudoshi stop it, you're making him feel uncomfortable" Byakuya lectured. "Hi, sorry about me screaming a little earlier, I'm Byakuya" He grabbed Sesshomaru's hand and vigorously shook his hand.
"I think you're the one making him uncomfortable Byakuya" Hakudoshi mocked.
"Why you little –" Byakuya grabbed Hakudoshi's cheeks and pinched them.
" Byakuya stop"
"No way, first my make up, and now you are destroying my moment with Sesshomaru"
"Guys, stop it, Kagura's getting mad" Kanna pointed out.
Kanna pushed her two fighting brothers back in the house.
"Are they always at each other's throats?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Yes" Moryomaru silently answered. "I'm Moryomaru…"
"Nice to meet you Moryomaru" (Besides Kagura, I think he's the normal one here) He thought.
"Uhhh, come on Sesshomaru let's get inside. They might come back out and start a scene" Kagura insisted.
Kagura's home gave Sesshomaru's senses a different feel. Growing up, he may have lived in huge house, but it was always cold and empty. This is the first time he has ever felt a house this warm and inviting.
"Sesshomaru, what is in that bag you're holding?" Kanna asked.
"Ah, this thing…? It's a secret"
"Oh c'mon, tell Kanna what you got in there" Kanna insisted.
"I'll show them to you later" He answered.
"Promise?"
"I promise"
"Okay then" Kanna then resumed playing with her brothers
"Isn't she a cutie?" Kagura interrupted. "She's the curious one in the bunch so don't be surprised if she keeps asking you questions" She shared.
"You lived here since you were a child?"
"Yup, until of course I wanted to be independent"
"Your house feels so different from mine" He shared.
"But didn't you live in a big fancy mansion or something?"
"Yes, but it was never filled with this much laughter"
(I almost forgot that his parents weren't always around, and it was only him and Inuyasha. It must have been so lonely…) She thought.
"KAGURA" Suikotsu greeted happily. He hugged his eldest so tight that Kagura couldn't even get out of his grasps.
"F-father, you're squishing me"
"Oh, sorry, I'm sorry" Suikotsu lets go of Kagura. "I'm sorry; it's just that I don't see very often"
"I know father, I know" She then wrapped her arm around Sesshomaru's. "By the way, father this is Sesshomaru King he's my –"
"Boyfriend…" Suikotsu grumbled.
"Y-yeah…" (Oh no…)
"It's finally nice to meet you Mr. Brooks. Kagura gas told me so many things about you" Sesshomaru said.
"Oh really now?" He then looked at Kagura with a grin "Well she's never told me about you. Why won't we talk for a little while to get to know each other?" Suikotsu suggested.
"Sure why not?" Sesshomaru lets go of Kagura and followed her father in the kitchen.
(He's now in my trap) Suikotsu thought. (I can't let him have my Kagura yet…She's still too young)
"Take care of him for me okay?"
"Okay" Suikotsu answered.
"Hmm, it seems like dad is very interested in him" Byakuya hummed.
"I know; I just hope he doesn't kill him in there" Kagura prayed.
"Humph knowing father, I know Sesshomaru's going to have a hard time" Hakudoshi scoffed.
"Don't say that Hakudoshi, Mr. Sesshomaru's going to be fine. I just know it" Kanna bravely said.
"Good luck to him then" Moryomaru uttered.
"Come on guys, let's leave them alone. Let's just pretend that we're playing" Byakuya suggested.
Back in the kitchen Suikotsu's gruelling interrogation commenced.
"Sesshomaru…Sit down"
Sesshomaru listened to Suikotsu and sat himself down on the kitchen table.
"So, how are you doing these past few months?" Suikotsu asked.
"I'm doing great…"
Suikotsu then examined Sesshomaru a little further.
(Why is Mr. Brooks looking at me that way? Is this how Kagura felt when I started giving her the 'look'?)
"Sesshomaru, as you know Kagura is my first born and as her father I constantly have to know who she's with"
"I understand…Sir"
"Well then, since you understand I have some questions I want you to answer"
(I hope all of Kagura's training will come in handy)
"H-how did you meet my daughter?"
"…It was July twenty third, I had an errand to run, and as I walked out of the elevator I accidentally bumped into her. It was obvious that she was new in the building because of all the moving boxes..."
"Did you help her up?"
"Of course, as a gentleman I couldn't leave a woman in need"
"*Clears throat* Why yes of course" (This Sesshomaru guy isn't half bad) "So, what do you do for a living?"
"I'm a pianist"
"Ah, a pianist" (His work seems a bit boring) "Are you having fun? I mean, with your work?"
"…Recently yes"
"Recently?" Suikotsu questioned. "How so?"
" I have been with my greatest inspiration…" He answered.
(I-inspiration? Is he talking about my Kagura…? Isn't that sweet – wait Suikotsu, focus. We're not here to relieve Kagura with this man right in front of us, so FOCUS!)
"Uhm…Mr. Brooks, are you okay?"
"Just peachy, thanks for asking" (Come on Suikotsu, think, think, think…! A-ha) "Sesshomaru?"
"Yes Mr. Brooks?"
"Did you know that Kagura is very ill tempered? She can be very loud sometimes and she hates it when you touch her hair?" He lied.
When Sesshomaru heard Suikotsu, he just looked at him dumbfounded.
( Heh, I've got you now) Suikotsu thought.
"I don't mean to be rude Mr. Brooks, but I don't think Kagura isn't anything what you said"
"W-what!" (Shoot he got me)
"I know Kagura well enough that she isn't loud. She's actually very humble, and generous. Yes, she might have an ill temper, but I got used to that, and I've touched her hair more than once" Sesshomaru answered.
"R-really…Huh?"
(Oh no…I answered back to him. I'm not supposed to do that. Kagura said that her father hated smart asses…) Sesshomaru thought.
"SESSHOMARU" Suikotsu said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Mr. Brooks?"
"Why my daughter? What made you attracted to her? There are a lot of women out there for you, why did you have to pick her? She's still too young"
"Isn't it obvious?"
"What do you mean obvious?"
"Her beautiful red eyes, her lustrous ebony locks, the bright smile on her face, just always seem to make my day. She is strong willed, and she knows what she wants to do in life. She's not like any women out there in the world. She's one of a kind.
You're daughter, Mr. Brooks is a very unique young lady" Sesshomaru answered.
"…I give up, I can't break you" Suikotsu confessed.
"Break me?"
"Sesshomaru the truth is that the whole time we were here I was trying to let you leave my daughter…"
"I had a feeling" Sesshomaru uttered.
"Sesshomaru, do you know why I don't want Kagura to have a relationship?" He asked. "The reason is…I don't want her to end up like me…" He confessed.
"End up like you?"
"I've had two failed marriages, first her mother then Moryomaru's. She was still young when her mother left us, she felt so sad because she thought that she and Byakuya were the reason why she left. Then the same thing happened to Moryomaru's. I
can never let her feel the pain of losing someone they love…"
"You have nothing to fear Mr. Brooks. I'll never leave your daughter"
"You sure?"
"Yes, I'm sure"
"Well then…" Suikotsu straightened up and patted Sesshomaru's shoulders. "You can now call me Suikotsu, because you've earned it!"
"Thank Mr….I mean Suikotsu I –"
"Just one question though before we leave"
"And that would be…"
"Did you ever sleep with my daughter?" He asked.
"N-no" Sesshomaru lied.
"….Okay, you're cleared"
In the living room, everyone pretended to play. Most of them seemed anxious to know if Sesshomaru passed Suikotsu's test, most especially Kagura.
"Oh, they're done" Kanna pointed out.
Suikotsu and Sesshomaru walked out of the kitchen. They walked towards the living room to gather with the family.
"So?" Byakuya asked with a tune.
"Did he fail?" Hakudoshi asked.
"Nah, he passed" Suikotsu comfortably answered.
"Hah, I knew Sesshomaru could do it" Kanna cheered.
"Kagura, you picked a very promising one" Suikotsu pointed out.
Kagura stood up and reunited with Sesshomaru. "So, how did it feel?" Kagura asked.
"It was something else…But fun" Sesshomaru answered.
"Did he give you a hard time?"
"Not really…"
"Okay guys, let's say we go out and have some fun?" Suikotsu suggested.
The whole family went out to that yard and played with the snow. They created endless snow angels and snowmen. They even had intense rounds of snowball fights. Hours fly when you're having fun. And before you knew it, it was already Christmas Eve.
"Ten minutes till twelve people, let's start giving our presents" Byakuya screamed.
"Okay kids come here, I'll give you my presents first" Suikotsu announced. "Okay, one for you Byakuya, one for Kanna, one for Hakudoshi, one for Moryomaru, and one for Kagura. Sorry Sesshomaru, I have nothing for you"
"It's alright. Me being welcomed here is the greatest present I got"
"Aww, that's so sweet" Kanna sweetly said.
"When can we open it?" Moryomaru asked.
"Twelve o' clock sharp" Suikotsu answered.
"Aww, why can't we open them now?" Hakudoshi complained.
"Because the surprise will be ruined" Kagura answered. "Sesshomaru, don't we have something for them too?"
"Oh yeah" Sesshomaru grabbed the luggage they had and opened it. "Open these presents at twelve o'clock as well okay?"
"Okay"
"There's one for Kanna, Moryomaru, Byakuya, Hakudoshi, and Suikotsu"
"For me? Wow, you came prepared" Suikotsu complimented.
"Hey everybody it's almost Christmas" Hakudoshi pointed out.
"Let's start a countdown then" Kanna suggested.
"Byakuya, how long is it till Christmas?"
"Okay we have twelve…"
"Eleven, Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One…Merry Christmas!" They cheered.
"Now, can we open our presents?" Kanna asked.
"Yes, now you can open them" Suikotsu answered.
Byakuya opened his gifts and squealed. "Eeeee, I got that jacket I wanted from Stella McCartney; and a new make up kit from L'Oreal, thank you so much guys"
"Nice, a new chemistry set, and the newest encyclopaedia, thank you" Hakudoshi blurted.
"Oohh, I got a voice recorder and a set of notebooks and pens, thanks" Kanna cheered. "What did you get Moryomaru?"
"I got a new school bag, and Count of Monte Cristo"
"What's that?"
"It's a novel by Alexandre Dumas, pére" He answered. "What did you get Kagura?"
"I got a pair of new earrings from dad"
"Tsk tks tks didn't Sesshomaru give you anything?" Byakuya asked.
"He already got me something" Kagura showed then the plastic necklace she got from the fair.
"I tried very hard to get that for her" Sesshomaru mentioned. "Suikotsu open yours"
When Suikotsu opened his gift his face lit up. "Sake!"
"Yeah, Kagura told me that you are half Japanese and that you loved that part of you"
"Thank you Sesshomaru, let's have a sip later okay?" Suikotsu invited.
"Hey, Sesshomaru?"
"Yes Kanna?"
"Did you get a gift from Kagura?"
"Yes, I did. I haven't even opened it"
Sesshomaru grabbed his gift from his pocket and slowly opened it. When he successfully unwrapped his and opened the box he was surprised to see a mistletoe in the box. He grabbed it and placed it above his head.
"What's this?" He asked.
"You don't know what that is?" Kanna giggled.
"Nope I don't think –"
Kagura suddenly kissed Sesshomaru on his lips. "Merry Christmas" She smiled.
"My turn, my turn" Kanna insisted. She stood up and kissed Sesshomaru on the cheek. "Merry Christmas"
Sesshomaru didn't know what was going on and froze.
"What you got there Sesshomaru, is a mistletoe. It is said that whoever is under the mistletoe will receive a kiss from the closest person" Hakudoshi lectured.
"BOORING" Byakuya blurted. "Come on it's my turn to kiss him"
Kagura grabbed the mistletoe from Sesshomaru and hid it from Byakuya. "Not on my watch"
"Aww fine…"
"Honestly Byakuya, you can't do that to him –"
Sesshomaru suddenly grabbed her and kissed her cherry lips. "Merry Christmas" He smiled.
Kagura looked up and noticed that she held the mistletoe above her head. "Now, you know what this is for huh?" She smirked.
"Quit getting cozy the two of you, we have to get a shot of the yearly Christmas family photo" Suikotsu reminded.
"Yeah, since Kagura is here it's now going to be complete" Moryomaru mentioned.
"Come on guys, go huddle up somewhere, I'll take your picture" Sesshomaru voluntarily said.
"No, no, no, you're in the photo as well. We'll just set the camera in timer and place it on top of the fire place"
Suikotsu grabbed his camera, sets it in timer mode, and placed it on the fireplace.
"Okay everybody, one two three…"
"CHEESE!"
*Flash* And the yearly family photo was taken, but. This photo was like no other, they had a new addition to their family. It was someone whom Suikotsu can call his son-in-law.
To Be Continued….
