A/N: Thanks for all the reviews! Here's for you guys!
"Ice cream mommy!" Charles exclaimed. Takumi was driving the newest SUV he purchased. He was always for the fastest cars but this time, he chose the bullet safe, 100% child proof car all the way from Europe. Misaki was in the front seat. Charles insisted to sit at her place but Takumi very much argued that Charles must be place in the safest seat at the back.
"Okay. We'll get you ice cream" Misaki approved. For the first time, they were doing the groceries as a family. Which is very awkward but Takumi wanted to show that he could be a good father by buying groceries. That doesn't make sense to Misaki. Not at all.
"Hmmm… I like ice cream" Takumi said. He parked the car perfectly in the VIP slot. He never had ice cream since his wedding, 6 years ago. And ironically, he had this thing for ice cream.
Misaki stepped out of the car in casual jeans and a shirt. Not that any one would mind. Well, as the paparazzi's new toy, maybe the whole world would mind now. She sighed not wanting to think of all that now. She was with her son and husband, nothing could go wrong. Takumi leaned in the backseat to carry Charles out. Soon after, they were inside the grocery.
Groceries were meant to be for everyone, right? Well, exclude this one. Misaki was standing in shock. What kind of store is this? First, it required a membership. And obviously, Takumi was a member because as soon as they stepped in, personal employees were waiting for them. Second, the items were over priced… way over-priced. Here, a bottle of water cost 4 times the price of the ones you buy at the airports.
"Are you kidding me?" Misaki looked at Takumi who was being pulled by Charles towards the Ice cream section.
"Why? What's wrong?" He said as he was being dragged. All of a sudden, Charles stopped pulling.
"Whoa" The little boy stared in awe. The biggest refrigerator he ever saw was packed with his favorite food in different flavors. Haagen- Dazs – Vanilla, Chocolate, Strawberry, Name it!
The anger in Misaki froze. Her little boy never looked this amazed. She wanted to get her camera and take a snapshot of him. Takumi carried Charles up until the little boy could reach out for his guilty pleasure.
"What flavor should I get, daddy? There's just too many!" He wrapped his tiny arms around his daddy's neck and waited for an answer.
"Well, what to you want?" Takumi looked back at Charles who was obviously to busy reading all the flavors from the labels.
"Everything!" He screamed. Whenever he said he wanted everything, Misaki would always say… You can't have everything, Charles. And in life, that was a universal truth.
"One of everything then" Takumi ordered the staff. The poor staff doubted what she just heard. This man is kidding, right? You can't just get everything.
"You can't be serious" Misaki spoke with disbelief.
"Why not?" Takumi asked innocently.
"Yay! Thanks daddy!" Charles hugged Takumi very tightly. It was a hug from his heart. And Takumi knew that. Never in his life did Takumi feel such joy in a simple hug. It was a hug from his son. His son. And if it meant getting Charles all the ice cream and toys he wanted, then Takumi couldn't be happier to give it to him.
"Charles, pick a flavor or two. Honey, it's too expensive" Misaki reasoned out. Both of her boys looked at her as if she was crazy. There's no such thing as expensive for Takumi. And Charles, he was too innocent to understand what expensive meant.
"I owe this to him, Misaki. Please-"
"Pleaseeeeeeee" Charles pleaded his mom with those eyes.
Those. Eyes. Takumi had those eyes. Now, Charles has it too. Those pairs of irresistible puppy dog eyes that made Misaki defenseless.
"I hate you Takumi, you know that" Misaki looked at Takumi. But the more she did, the deeper she got hypnotized with his green orbs.
"Is that a yes?" Takumi verified with this wide grin. He looked like a little boy. Misaki's little boy to be specific.
"Yes. But only if you promise me you won't end up with stomach aches. I don't want my favorite boys sick, okay?"
"Favorite boys?" Takumi questioned.
"You heard me. You and Charles" Misaki answered as if it was the most simple thing.
Takumi was ready to buy the whole store any moment. Happy was an understatement. He was beyond any emotion. Misaki came close to him. She realized how much that meant to Takumi. Before he knew it, Misaki was kissing him. He was carrying his son in one arm and had his wife one his lips.
Maybe you could have everything at least once in your life.
