A:N/ This is the last chapter that I promised months ago. I hope that I made a positive impact with my story in this community. I absolutely enjoyed making the story about a year ago. This is farewell for now, and thank you again for being a part of this story's beginning up until it's end.


Finally A Home Again


Sōma woke up to the smell of fresh mocha in the morning. A year had passed since him and Atra started dating. It was only a few months ago when they started living together as a family.

"Hey sleepy head, it's time to get up." Atra's voice cooed from the doorway of their room. Sōma muffled something in his pillow before rolling around in bed, still stubbornly sleeping.

"Sōma, it's time to wake up…" Atra whispered hotly on Sōma's ear. The red-haired chef felt flushed and used his free arm to wrap around Atra's waist. He pulled her close in bend and threw the sheets back over them.

"Just five more minutes…" he mumbled on Atra's shoulder, where his head rests. Atra sighs in content.

"What am I going to do with you…"

"Mama, is Papa awake yet? The mochi's almost done!" Etsuko peeked through the door and saw her two parents sleeping. The little girl pouted and ran towards the two sleeping adults to join them.

"Etsuko…?" Sōma groaned while still half-asleep. Etsuko cupped his face and pouted at him.

"The mocha is done, Papa! We need to eat them before someone does!" she squeaked cutely, throwing a fit at the two of them. Atra giggled at Etsuko and hugged the girl.

"Why are you being so cute again, Etsuko-chan?" Atra nuzzled Etsuko, eliciting fits of giggles from the young girl.

The small family of three got up after a good minute. Sōma stretched out his sore limbs before exiting the cozy room. Atra and Etsuko both waited for Sōma at the doorway, offering both of their hands for Sōma to hold after he was done stretching.

"Let's go?" Atra asked playfully at Sōma, wiping a wad of drool that had still been stuck on Sōma's face.

"Your turn to cook today, huh?" Sōma chuckled enjoying the presence of his wife and daughter with him. The three went downstairs for breakfast with happiness as their greatest blessing. Sōma couldn't be thankful enough. He felt whole. Finally at peace, the small family became a home.
