Unaccepted - Chapter 6

"We'll see about that…" he said softly, sure enough that both of them heard.

"Tsukimori-kun? Tsukimori-kun, what do you mean about that?" he didn't responded, he just left with a smirk.

"Tsukimori! Please!"

Etou wrapped an arm around her shoulder. "Don't worry. I'm sure he wouldn't tell it."

She just looked at him, the worried look never leaving her face.

A week has passed already, and Etou wasn't there to guide them until this day.

"Mama! Mama!" Kaien shouted, entering his mother's room. She sat up, rubbing an eye with her hand.

"What are you shouting about…" she pause to yawn. "So early in the morning…?"

"Look what I got! It's a toy robot I found on our door step!" her eyes shot wide, the sleepiness automatically disappeared.

"Who gave you that?"

"There's a letter here says it's from papa!" he said, showing off the piece of carton with the recipient's name and the sender, but the sender's name is not actually written. It only says 'Papa'.

She took it from his hand, smiling as she read.

How thoughtful of him…

Noon came and Kahoko with her son were at the park.

Beneath the burning heat, a cheerful smile and a carefree laughter covered the tired look of the vivacious child. He was running around and around in the playground, chasing after his other two playmates, Ryoumi and Keiko.

Hiding inside his black velvet cat, he had been watching him ever since he came. This man who we considered this child's real father.

Another alluring person came to his sight, approaching his child to wipe the sweats off his face and neck.

"Mama, I can do this."

"Just be quiet and stay still." He complied about being quiet but that's because he saw someone, fixing eyes with this man.

Len stared back; hand is holding the knob of his car.

"Last five minutes and were going home—Kaien?" Kaien didn't pay attention to her instead, he started taking little steps towards Len's direction.

"Kaien, where are you going?"

"Papa!" he yelled, running again to the man he spotted.

D-did I hear it right? He just called me… Papa? Still dazed, he just watch as the child run.

Did Kahoko tell him the truth already? I'm not dreaming? With all the joy he felt, he opened to door slightly, stepping a foot out.

"Pappaaaa!" he shouted more, running faster. Kahoko, unable to do anything, just watched them from the distance.

Len haven't even fully got out of his car when—

"Papa, I missed you so much!" the same time as he hug him in the waist.

"I missed you too, Kaien. Where's your mama?"

"She's right there! Let's go, papa! She misses you, too!"

All the joy and excitement Len felt, turned into disappointment in a quick flash.
He withdraw his foot back in place, closed the door again.

He hid his sad face by glaring.

Fine. He can have them for now. But no secrets can be kept forever. He thought.

His brows twitched, narrowing his eyes to see further; the scene where Etou gave Kahoko an 'I'm-back' hug.

"Mama, where's the 'welcome-home' kiss?" Both adults pulled away immediately, turning around from each other, both blushing.

"T-that's… Kaien, we can't do that in public." Or they really can't? Kahoko just nodded in agreement. And as for Len, curiosity is killing him on what's happening.

"Come one, Papa…" Kaien uttered, pushing Etou closer to Kahoko.

He gave up with a smile. "Fine…"

"Yay!"

"Wha—" in two seconds, he gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. Kaien chuckled, but Len frowned, fists clenching.

Kahoko chuckled, as though she really feel that Etou is her husband. All went back to normal when the other two kids came and dragged Kaien back to the slide.

"So…" she started, turning to him.

"What is it?"

"Thanks for the toy you sent Kaien."

He raised an eye brow. "What toy? I don't remember sending one."

"Eh? Are you sure? But it says—" it struck her, as she thought of another person responsible for that.

"Could it be…" she wondered, then faced Etou as thought she's asking him to confront Len.

Etou got his phone and dialed some numbers.

"What?"

"Are you the one who gave that?"

"So you figured it out, huh." He smirked, enjoying the look on Etou's face.

"I'm begging you to please stop it. The three of us are already happy. Why do you have to ruin it now!" he said, calm at first, and then shouted at the end as the nerves inside his forehead were appearing.

"Etou… Calm down…"

Len heard her voice again, frowned and became serious once again. "I won't and I already sent a ton in front of their house."

"What! Are you planning to take him away from us! ?" Her worries worsened, leaning her ear closer to the phone to hear their conversation, but the same time as Len hung the phone up.

"Etou, what did he say?"

"We better go home, now or else he won't stop bothering." He said, getting Kaien's things and approached him, disturbing his fun.

"Huh? Why?" he ignored her again.

"Kaien, let's go home now." Ryoumi and Keiko stared at him with puppy eyes, pleading him to Kaien stay a little longer.

It's true that he cannot stand puppy eyes, but they have to.

"I'm sorry, kids. But we really have to go. Tomorrow again, okay?" He said to both of them, patting both heads,

As they reach home, they were unable to walk inside the house, as the doorstep and the surroundings were blocked with a bunch of huge and expensive toys.

"Yay! A lot of toys!" Kaien shouted and strode to where the toys are, examining all one by one.

"Damn that Tsukimori."
