Father's Day
Jouji Hanajima adored his children more than anything in the world, period.
Perhaps to other people, Saki and Megumi seemed… 'eccentric'? 'Offbeat'? 'Frickin' weird'? But to their dad, they were perfect.
"Father?"
"Yes, Saki? Megumi?"
"It is the third Sunday in June. Felicitations on Father's Day."
"Err… thank you."
"And as per our tradition…" Saki looked over to her brother. "Ready?"
They both glomped him. "WE LOVE YOU, DADDY! SQUEE!"
At the bottom of a Hanajima pile, Jouji smiled. "Did you two actually say 'squee'?"
Megumi nodded. "Too overdone?"
They were only ever odd when they tried to be 'normal.'
Author's note: This was written and published on Father's Day 2011. I really wanted to write a Father's Day drabble for Furuba, but it's hard, because most father-child dynamics in the series are fraught with drama, if not outright hostility. And I watned to write a completely WAFFy one.
That pretty much left me with Saki and Megumi's dad, probably the kindest biological dad in the series who isn't dead. So Jouji (my name for him, as Takaya didn't give him one) it was.
Happy Father's Day!
