"What about mango flavor?" Ritsuka asked. He unbuttoned a few of his school coat with a tired breath from the warm Spring.
Ritsuko shook her head standing beside outside the bakery shop's cake display. "Mom hates mango, remember? But, at this point..."
Ritsuka sighed as he shook his head. "Either mango or mocha chocolate that's left."
The orange-haired girl stomped on her foot and grumbled. "Man, why are these two the only flavor left?! How badly is a Mother's Day cake needed for it left behind only these two?!"
"Either people that truly wish to celebrate for their mom," Ritsuka raised his hand and pointed at a couple of girls beside him. "Or, those with just huge appetites for sweets."
Breathed out a heavy sigh, Ritsuko muttered. "And, this is the last place after searching the entire town..."
He patted her shoulder and reassured, "I'm sure she would understand the effort we put in."
"Easy for you to say since you already prepared a present for her!" Ritsuko pouted.
When she spun back to study at the cakes to choose, her eyes squinted and turned back to Ritsuka. "Come to think of it, you didn't celebrate with your Mom before, did you? Not my mom, but your mom. You were terrified as hell when you showed her your first present after they got married."
"My mom, huh?" Ritsuka showed a dumbfounded expression.
Seeing her nod, he turned upwards in trying to recall. "Hmm... As much as I remember, it's true we didn't. Dad is often overtime in his office, so we didn't have the chance to get anything for her."
"Then, your mom?"
"She–!" His mouth stopped moving and shortly a thin line formed on his lips. Just as it earned a concerned look, he chuckled and assured. "Relax, will you? She's just busy like Dad was. So we never actually got to do it. The irony, that's one of the reasons Dad divorced her."
"I see..." Ritsuko nodded with hesitation at his answer.
Ritsuka soon stretched his arms tiredly. "Hey, hurry and choose one! I had homework to finish you know."
"Homework?" Ritsuko scoffed at his declaration. "You finished them before the school's over! You wanted to watch that peppy idol's recent video update with them, don't you?"
"Don't call her that, mind you!" Ritsuka glared with his arms folded. "It's rude to call your brother's idol 'that peppy idol' when she's a famous and beautiful idol. And, my one and only love!"
"Whatever," Ritsuko rolled her eyes. "I want to go home too since I got a PVP match tonight, so come on, help me choose one!"
"Fine, fine!" Ritsuka retorted as he bent his body with his sister to check out the two cakes before deciding.
I was in the mood and itching to write a side story for the Fujimaru Siblings
