"Ba!" A little voice yelled, causing MEGUMI FUSHIGURO to turn around.
He stood at the counter, having been warming a small frozen pack of breastmilk from the freezer when that tiny voice interrupted him. voice that belonged to his sweet, 6 month old daughter.
She sat on the floor a few feet away, cooing with her sweet, gummy smile, arms lifted up to him.
A gentle smile pulled at his mouth. "Hi, sweetie..." he said softly as he took a step closer, bending down and lifting her into his arms, "you're milk's almost ready, 'kay?"
She squealed and smacked his chest with her tiny hand, then reached to his face, grabbing at his lip.
Megumi let her grab at him and ignorerd her yells, taking the small bag of milk out of a bowl of warm water and transferring it to one of her bottles.
His daughter caught a glimpse of the bottle, her attention immediately caught, to which she proceeded to try leaning towards the sink, swiping at the air in attempts of grabbing her next meal.
"Give me one second." Megumi said gently, ignoring her whines as he twisted the bottle cap on.
He lifted the bottle to her, to which she greedily grabbed it, latching on and letting out a small, satisfied grunt.
A small smirk of amusement formed on his lips as he worked to cradle her in his arm. "You're so impatient. Reminds me of your mother."
"Talking smack about me to my own daughter now, Megs?"
Megumi turned his head to the hallway, where you were walking out of, a playful smile on your face. "Hi love. Of course not."
You laughed softly and stepped over to him, leaning your head on his shoulder and watching your daughter feed, "Good. Now let me take her."
You moved right in front of Megumi, trying to scoop the baby from beneath, but she fussed kicking her little leg out and fisted Megumi's shirt with one of her hands, holding onto him desperately.
While you pouted and gave up, your husband chuckled.
"It's not fair y'know. I'm the one the did all the work of growing her and stuff. She should like me better." You turned, walking over to the living room as Megumi followed.
You both sat on the couch, shoulders brushing.
"...wish it felt like it." You mumbled, arms crossed and looking off to the side, the opposite direction of him.
"Don't talk like that." Megumi spoke softly, reach his free arm around you, pulling close and giving a light squeeze.
"But...sometimes it feels like I did something wrong. I thought babies were supposed to be clingy to their mother, but she's...not." You explained quietly, toying with the sleeve of your shirt.
"Just because sometimes she wants to stay with me, doesn't mean she doesn't love you. I don't think you see it, but she really does love being around you." Your husband explained gently, "And don't you like once she sees me you dont have to carry her anymore?"
A resigned breath fell from your lips, head tipping to the side and resting on his shoulder, eyes down on your daughter. "Yeah..." You mumbled, cracking a small smile, a familiar, soft warmth arising in you chest at his words of support.
The baby in Megumi's arms let out a small grunt, tiny fingers wrapped around the teat of the now empty bottle. Her arms lowered to the side, tossing it to the ground.
Her attention turned to you, her hands reaching. "Mamama."
Your smile spread slowly and you offered her one of you fingers, which she grabbed and pulled toward her mouth, distracting her from your arm scooping her up. "Hi sweetie." You whispered, holding her so her tiny feet stood on your thigh and her body leaned against your chest.
She babbled her hand grabbing at your nose.
Leaning forward, you kissed her round cheek, making squeal, hiding in the crook of you neck with her stubby arms wrapped 'around' you.
Your heart swelled at the action, your smile now warm and wide.
"See?" Megumi said suddenly, a faint smirk on his face.
"Shut up." You scoffed lightly, paying no mind to him as he kissed your temple.
Even if your husband was clearly your daughter's favorite parent, you were still going to enjoy her cuteness.
