Made before Haruki was born
Don't really know the order of Japan's seasons order

"thinking"
On with the story
Summer had come as Aki was playing around in the garden with her father
"magi beam!" Aki yelled out with a toy wand as she was pretending to be a magical girl from an anime show
"ahhh! I got hit!" Soma said dramatically before he fell down and pretended to be dead
"Magic Girl Aki wins!" Aki yelled out with a smile before Soma sat up and grabbed her
"Tickle tickle attack!" Soma exclaimed as he started tickling Aki and got her laughter
While the two played outside, Erina was doing some yoga exercise in the bedroom, to make sure that her body is always healthy before she gives birth
Autumn came as the orange brownish leaves were falling
"yahoo!" Soma and Aki yelled as they jumped down a big patch of leaves and sends them all flying everywhere
"again!" Aki cheered as Soma carried her up and they started jumping around many patches of raked leaves
"my my" Senzaemon said sitting around a small table with Joichiro and Dojima as they were visiting "the two are so alike"
"that's your son alright, Joichiro" Dojima said with a smile
"and my granddaughter" Joichiro said with a grin
"Ojiichan!" Aki yelled as she runs to her grandfather
"come here!" Joichiro exclaimed with a big smile as he carried her up and started spinning around "let's go to the pool with Ojiichan tomorrow!"
"yay! I love Ojichan!" Aki said with a big smile
"but what about Ojiji chan?" Senzaemon asked as he uses the nickname his great granddaughter had given to him
"I love too!" Aki said smiling and laughing so cheerfully
It was winter and snow had come and covered everything in white
"snow!" A 4 year-old Aki wearing winter clothes shouted as she jumps up before landing on the snow covered garden
"don't get into the snow too much, Aki" Soma told his daughter while he was at the living room, tending to Erina who was 6 months pregnant with their second child
"yes!" Aki said as she started playing in the snow, making a weird looking small snowman
Things had been quite peaceful in the mansion, as Erina was taking a leave of being Headmistress and lets her Cousin take her spot for the mean time
Erina caressed her pregnant stomach before she felt a kick from within
"the little guy rustling in there?" Soma asked with a smile as Erina nodded
Soma kneels down and caressed her stomach before feeling a kick from inside
"he's a fighter" Soma chuckled and so did Erina
Aki soon came running back in as the child was covered in snow before she sneezes
"what did I tell you?" Soma said standing up and going to Aki
He dusts off the snow off of her and closed the door before taking off her winter clothes
After that, he sets her down near the heater where Erina was, as the mother must keep herself warm and healthy for her second child
Aki looks at Erina's pregnant stomach while Soma went to the kitchen to make some hot coco for his daughter
"when Aki's little brother going to come?" Aki asked her mother who giggles with a smile
"soon" Erina said patting her head before caressing her stomach "do you want to hear him?"
Aki nodded before she rested her head on Erina's Pregnant stomach
She hears a lot of things but she can hear her little brother's heartbeat
"can you hear him?" Erina asked as Aki nodded
Aki continues hearing his little brother's heartbeat before she felt a kick
"he kicked!" Aki said with a smile as Erina smiled back
"your little brother is going to be a fighter" Soma said coming back with a small mug of warm coco which he gave to Aki, to warm her body temperature up
"me too! Aki is a fighter!" Aki said joyfully before tilting her head
"what's a fighter?" the child asked innocently while not knowing the definition of the word
"we'll tell your later" Soma said with a chuckle
Finally, Spring came as the sun was shining and a cool breeze passes by
The happy family was at their mansion's garden and they were having a small picnic party with Alice, Megumi, Hisako, Takumi, Ryo, and Hayama
"it's such a shame that Yuki-chan and the others couldn't come" Alice said with a bored look as she was the one who invited everyone to the picnic party
"there's no helping it, their company and restaurant are rising very fast" Erina said while sitting beside Soma who had Aki sitting on his lap
"but it's too boring with just us!" Alice whined like a child even though she is going to have a child in 6 months or so
"Ojou, don't get stressed, it's bad for you" Ryo said bored and lazy
"make it more meaningful, would you?" Hayama and Takumi said as Ryo's voice sounds like he didn't care on having a child
"so, Erina-san, have you two decided on a name yet?" Megumi asked changing the topic so that everyone can turn their attention to the future coming child
"well…we've been thinking some names…" Soma said rubbing his chin before patting Aki's head "Aki got her name because she was born in Autumn and is such a bright girl. But we're kinda stuck on picking a boy's name"
"what names have you thought of?" Hisako asked
"well…there's Fuyuki, Natsu, Eiji, Eiichi, Yamato, Akio,…" Erina said before raising up her fingers and pulled them down as she counts "but we can't stick with one"
"just how much names did you two even think off?" Hayama said with a sweatdrop "just pick of the one that rings the best with you two"
"easy for you to say" Soma said as they started discussing with everyone on the names that sounds good
After 30 minutes, the list lasted to three names; Eiji, Akio, and Fuyuki
"since Erina is going to be due either in November or December, and it's going to be winter. I think Fuyuki is the best so that it would match Aki" Alice said "right Ryo?"
"yes" Ryo replied lazily
"but there's a chance of a premature birth, we can't just think that everything goes naturally" Hayama said before he got a glare by Soma who didn't want the idea of his son being born to early and have a possible chance of death "s-sorry"
"I think Eiji is the best" Takumi said trying to change the subject "since it's your second child"
"but Akio sounds better," Hisako interrupted "it means bright man, it would be a very best name for a child bearing such a name"
"hmm, Akio does sound good and Eiji too" Soma said rubbing his chin as he tried to decide on which name is good "what do you think, Erina?"
"I think Akio sounds good, it will give a bright meaning for our son" Erina said caressing her pregnant stomach with a smile
"then it's decided" Soma said
"Papa, there's so many Wood in spring (Haruki)" Aki said as she pointed at a pile of fallen branches
"yes" Soma said before hearing Erina yelped a bit "what's wrong?"
"the baby just.." Erina said holding her stomach as the child within her just gave out a strong kick
Soma blinked before he got near and place his ear on her stomach to try and get to feel his child's kick
"Akio.." Soma said as there was no kick "Haruki"
In an instant, the child gave out a kick that Soma felt
"wow!" Soma said "that was some kick!"
"it feels a bit painful when he does it" Erina said caressing the side of her stomach
"wait!" Alice said as she stands up and pointed at Erina's pregnant stomach "Akio!"
She said but nothing was happening "Haruki!"
Erina yelped in an instant as her child within her, gave a kick
"he wants that name!" Megumi said with a smile
Soma and Erina looks to each other before to her pregnant stomach as they placed their hand together
"Haruki" they said and they got a kick but not a powerful one
They soon smiled as they looked to each other
"then it's decided" Soma said "our son's name is going to be Haruki"
"yes" Erina said with a smile
"not Akio?" Aki asked before getting a pat on the head by Soma
"doesn't look like it" Soma said with a chuckle
That's a wrap!
Bye bye
