Side story 2 Minatsuki chapter 2
...
The family rode down to the outskirts of the city, near the forest where the nature trail was. Minatsuki was again showing her above average intellect and suggested they bring snacks, water and other supplies. They arrived at the entrance to the trail and took their things with them as they went walking. Minatsuki stopped every once in awhile, when she would see something she hadn't seen before, and wanted to take a picture of it. She stopped and looked one time, and there was a small snake in front of her, about 10 feet away. It was a Shimahebi (Japanese four-lined rattlesnake), and although they were known to not be venomous, Ryuko pulled Minatsuki back while Satsuki approached the snake with a stick she had picked up. The snake started rattling at her, indicating its aggravation with a potential predator. Satsuki used the stick to pick up the snake, then grabbed it behind the head so it couldn't strike. "What do you think, can she pet it?" Satsuki chuckled.
"As long as you keep it under control like that, I guess so." Ryuko said. "Minatsuki, you wanna pet the snake? Mama has it so it can't hurt you."
"What's that noise it's making?" Minatsuki asked.
"It's a kind of rattlesnake. It does that when you get close to it to try and scare you away." Satsuki answered. "As long as I keep hold of it like this, it can't bite anyone."
Ryuko walked Minatsuki over to Satsuki's side and let her look at the snake up close. She started petting it on the head and body, in wonder of the weird texture of its skin. "It feels funny."
"It has scales on its body instead of just skin." Satsuki responded.
With curiosity about the snake fulfilled, Satsuki gently tossed it away from the path.
...
They finally came to a large opening, then stopped and sat down for a snack. They brought some crackers and simple sandwiches, like ham and cheese, as well as a few oranges. Minatsuki had thought to bring some peanuts, which she got to use when a squirrel came down a tree near them. She threw some peanuts near it, and it ran over to start tasting the peanuts. It ate one of them, then put the rest in its cheeks and ran back up the tree. "You having fun today?" Ryuko asked her.
"Yes! I like being with you and mama. I could see some animals, got to pet a snake, and I can't do that just at home!"
Satsuki leaned over and kissed Ryuko. "Our little girl is such a blessing." Satsuki said.
"I know it. I just feel so happy when I see her happy like this."
"What are you two talking about?" Minatsuki inquired.
Ryuko sat her down on her lap. "We're talking about you, Minatsuki."
"Yep. We're happy you wanted to come out here with us." Satsuki said.
...
After their little hike, the family went back to the waiting Rolls-Royce, and the ladies buckled their daughter in. She soon nodded off, having tired herself out on their trip. They went back home, and Ryuko carried her in the house to her bedroom and laid her down, covered her up and kissed her forehead. She slowly closed the door and headed over to their bedroom to join her wife. Satsuki took her in to a warm hug and a kiss. "A few years ago, I bet you would have never seen yourself where you are now, huh?" Satsuki asked.
"Can't say I did, but I wouldn't have it any other way." Ryuko began. "When we first got together, I was mainly doing that so the Mankanshokus could live a little easier. Now, It's like I'm on top of the world."
"I'm certainly thankful you took me up on that offer as well." Satsuki said, sitting down on the edge of the bed. "Now, i take it that our daughter's asleep?"
Ryuko nodded a yes. "Why, you wanna catch up on some sleep too?"
"Or something else." She said as she winked.
