08: The Question
"Daddy, where do babies come from?" asked Kei and Hikari's adorable five-year old son.
As expected, his parents were surprised, evident by their wide eyes. They were at the door of the Takishima estate to say farewell to Hikari because she and the other girls were going out for a girl's day. She was about to open the door when their son suddenly asked that innocent question.
"I… um… storks" Kei was surprised by his own lack of words. He looked at Hikari, asking help in his eyes but Hikari only giggled at her husband and kissed her boys' cheeks before leaving.
"Have fun boys" she giggled.
Kei sighed and turned his heel, only to feel a tug on his pants. He looked down to see his son with a pout on his face.
"Daddy, you haven't really answered me!" he huffed "Please tell me the truth, Uncle Sui told me they grow from cabbages, Auntie Akira said something about birds and bees or something like that and-"
"I really don't think that you should be asking things about that yet. I will tell you when you're older-"
"They grow inside a mommy's stomach, right? But how do they get there?"
The infamous Takishima Kei is really at a lost. He knew his son is as smart as him and his wife and it would have been different if his son's age would have at least reached the age of puberty but no. Heck, he's just a five-year old! Whoever brought this topic up to him will surely be beaten.
Kei rummaged around his brain for the best possible answer, similar- yet still completely innocent to hear.
"By magic"
"Magic?"
"Yes, when boys reach a certain age, we learn how to use this magic so that we could use it to make our wives have babies and become a mommy. You know that magicians must never tell their secrets, right? That's why they give you different reasons"
"Ohhhh I see! It makes sense now!" he chirped in glee "I understand now daddy!"
The little tyke hugged his father in thanks to which Kei sighed in relief. Who knew this question would be harder to answer than any exam he ever had?
"Thank you for explaining it to me. I was really confused because of so many definitions especially when Uncle Tadashi told me that it had something to do with sex-"
CRACK!
