Kyo was now nine years old. He had just woken up from his deep sleep with a long stretch following a loud yawn. Kyo then got up and quietly headed to the kitchen, today was fathers day and Kyo wanted to do something different this year. He went to the fridge and got out ingredients for PBJ and tuna sandwiches for the picnic Kyo had been planning for three weeks. Kyo making the lunch thought back in time in life when he was younger living with his Shishou. He remembered when he fell off his bike and hurt his hand- Kazuma had lifted him up and held him close and kissed his hand and took him inside to put a blue band aid on the small hand. Kyo smiled as be packed the picnic basket putting it in the extra big fridge/ freezer in the large welkin pantry. He made his Kazuma a fresh cup of coffee and went to his room. Kyo nocked on the door and slowly entered the dark room. Kazuma stirred smelling the fresh brood coffee getting closer to his noise.
"Kyo?..." Kazuma sat up with a long stretch and carefully took the hot cup of coffee.
"Happy Father's Day."
"Ummh? Oh – oh yes-" Kazuma shook his head trying to clear his head. "Thank you Kyo." Kazuma said blowing on his coffee and taking a sip. "This is very good. Thank you." He said again drinking more of his coffee. He sat back resting his back on the bed frame smiling at his nine year old son.
"Instead of breakfast I thought we could go for a picnic in the park. It's all ready to go when your ready to eat." Kyo said now sitting on the edge of the bed near Kazuma's ankles.
"That sounds wonderful Kyo; I will get ready and we can be on our way." Kyo seeing he wanted to get up, moved off the bed and watched his sushio stand up with an incredible looking rats nest of hair all tangled into one big mesh. Kyo simply smiled and walked in the kitchen to make a double check on everything. Kazuma got all ready and were in the car within 30 minutes.
Kyo grabbed the large basket and thick blanket and dashed out of the car as soon as it was parked and turned off. Kazuma knowing this was Kyo's nature, just took his normal time of getting out and making sure everything was hidden well in the car. Kazuma walked for many minutes wondering where Kyo had scampered off with the food; that Kazuma was more then ready to gulp down as his belly rumbled. Kazuma found Kyo comfy under a tree laying on his back waiting for his dad to come. Kazuma sat down and chuckled. Kyo never did anything normal. He always tried to be creative and farfetched with his idea's.
"Happy father's day Shishou." Kyo said with a content thankful smile.
"Thank you Kyo. I love PBJ sandwiches." He watched his son eat his tuna sandwich and continued to wonder how much longer Kyo would do the Father's day tradition. Perhaps he will continue to do this till I die- or when he truly grows up perhaps. Kazuma said in his mind enjoying the time at the park with his amazing son. Who was indeed his son, not by blood- but by caring for one another; and the everlasting love that continued in there everyday lives.
