Last chapter I'll be uploading for a while. Who knows though… I could update earlier than expected if I'm free or get overwhelming feedback from everyone.

If you love angst and one-shots, then check out the KHR one-shots that I uploaded recently to my account. Has to do with my Rifiutare Famiglia series though, so check that out if you want. :) You don't need to read the Rifiutare one though to understand the general story of each one-shot though.

Hope you enjoy this chapter!

If my MC acts like a Mary Sue in any way or if there are any mistakes (grammar, story plot holes, etc.), TELL ME IMMEDIATELY!

Oh and no flames please! Thank you~!

Caught Off Guard (TYL Yamamoto's POV)

"Nn…" Yamamoto groggily opened his eyes, smelling the scent of warm food. He heard the sound of a knife chopping from the kitchen. Feeling as though he was in a dream, he dashed out of his room, not caring about his disheveled appearance.

Oyaji!?

The moment he saw Yukue, he felt a twinge of disappointment. But when he noticed how she glared at the fish in front of her, muttering unintelligible words to herself, his eyes flashed with amusement. "Ohayou, Yukue."

"Ohayou gozaimasu, Yamamoto-san." Her sudden smile caught him off guard.

He couldn't help but smile back at her.

Tadaima...

Word Count: 100

TRANSLATIONS:

Oyaji – one's father; old man

Ohayou – Morning (informal)

Ohayou gozaimasu – Good morning (formal)

Tadaima – I'm home; I'm back home.

Thank you to everyone who story alerted, favorited, and reviewed my story: ACasualPotato, natt7, and sylph0fspace.

ACasualPotato: Thanks for the review again~! I will for sure try my best not to overwork. :) And you made me laugh so hard with the whole "you step in my room and you are gonna get stabbed by a plastic spoon." Somehow, I would love to see that happen with a plastic spoon. Would be totally amusing. What you said really reminds me of me though. XD (Are we secretly twins? Jkjk) Even if I have certain traits that might belong to other flames, I'm probably primarily cloud. After all, none of the other ones really fit me (aka the core of who I am), except for cloud. (This is based on this one tumblr link though.) The core trait for cloud, according to that post, is independence, which has always been the case for me since I was small. And I always tried and still try to find ways to be free from society and from any relationship (except for the ones I choose). I also have a strong desire to choose what I want to do, instead of accepting the choices that are thrown towards me. That also seems to be the main theme for most of my fanfics too or whatever I write – wanting to be free or something to do with choice. Ended up commenting back too long. Haha Looking forward to hearing back from you again~ :D

Anyways, as always, I love hearing from everyone and would love to see your support for this fanfic in the form of reviews, so please keep those reviews coming! :D
