"C'mon Y/N, you need to eat....." Uramichi said, putting the spoon that was filled with porridge in front of his daughter's mouth.  The 7 month old whined, shaking her head as Uramichi  bounced one of his legs in impatience. Uramichi was currently feeding Y/N, but Y/N didn't like the flavor he was serving her. She wanted peaches and cream, not sweet potato!

As Y/N moved her head away from the spoon, Uramichi sighed and  looked down at the porridge. "Look, Daddy likes it!" Uramichi exclaimed, putting the porridge in his mouth in hopes that Y/N would be convinced to eat it. However, Uramichi only gagged when was about to swallow the porridge, taking a napkin and spitting the porridge into it. "Okay, maybe Daddy doesn't like it...." Uramichi muttered, soon hearing the sound of a pressure cooker overheating .

"Oh no...." Uramichi thought, getting off his seat and running into the kitchen. He went over to the pressure cooker, seeing that the curry he was making was now burnt. "Shit!" Uramichi yelled, taking out the curry with chopsticks and putting it on a plate. Y/N soon pushed the bowel of porridge off her highchair, Uramichi looking back and seeing the mess that was on the floor. "Y/N!" Uramichi yelled, getting a cloth so that he can wipe the spilt porridge away.

When Uramichi went down to his knees and began to rub the porridge with the cloth, he felt tears form in his eyes. "God dammit...." Uramichi thought, letting the tears fall as he began to sob. It's been a few weeks since Uramichi was evicted from his home, not being able to pay the rent for the house in time. Since than, Uramichi and Y/N were staying in a rather cheap apartment, the landlady already developing a dislike for the former due to his rather melancholic personality.

Adding onto that, Uramichi has been struggling to raise Y/N while finding a job. While his sister and in laws have helped him with his daughter here and there, Uramichi has been the sole person to take care of Y/N 24/7. Uramichi remembered Itsuki sending him a casting call for some educational kids program that was being developed by some new studio called "MHK", Itsuki hoping that Uramichi would take it  since one of the roles was a "Gymnast Oniisan".

Uramichi was sill thinking about it, not exactly wanting a job that involved him being on camera but was desperate for work. As the doorbell to the apartment rang, Uramichi quickly wiped the tears that were on his face and got up. Uramichi went to the door, opening the door without checking the peephole. Uramichi's eyes than widened, seeing that the person who was in front of him was Daisuke.

"I need to tell you something." Uramichi was about to close the door, but Daisuke put his foot in front of it. Daisuke was the last person Uramichi wanted to see, having a fight with him and his wife when they found out he was evicted and was now staying in a small apartment. "Please...." Daisuke muttered, Uramichi sighing and letting him in. As Daisuke entered the apartment, Uramichi took Y/N out of her highchair and held her in his arms while Daisuke looked around th apartment in disgust. 

"It's a mess in here...." Daisuke thought, disgust in his face as Uramichi went into the kitchen and pulled a bottle of milk from the fridge. Uramichi than went into the living room, sitting down on the couch and started to feed Y/N the bottle. "What do you need to tell me?" Uramichi asked, Daisuke going over to him and putting his hand into his jacket's pocket. He than pulled out a ring, but it wasn't any normal ring.....

Uramichi looked at the ring in shock, realizing that it was Sayaka's wedding ring. "But....it was cremated with her?" "I found it while we were doing the bone picking ceremony....." "And you just took it without telling me!?" Daisuke frowned, Uramichi snatching the wedding ring from him. "I didn't give you it  as I wanted something that reminded me of my daughter....." Daisuke said , Uramichi scoffing as he finished feeing Y/N her bottle.

"But I know now that it was selfish of me..." "It is." Uramichi glared at Daisuke, Daisuke taking this as his cue to leave. As Daisuke made his leave, Uramichi looked down at the ring and saw that Y/N was reaching out for it. Uramichi smiled, pressing a kiss to her forehead as he told her "When you're older....."

"Daddy?" Y/N asked, pulling on her father's cheek in hopes of waking him up. Uramichi opened his eyes when he felt Y/N touch his face, looking over at Y/N as he got his head off the window he was leaning it on. "Yeah?" "We're here." Uramichi looked out the window, noticing that the bus he and Y/N were on was finally at their stop. Uramichi finally remembered what he was doing, having forgotten it when he fell asleep. He was bringing Y/N along for work, the incident that happened last time Uramichi brought Y/N having since been forgiven and forgotten by the higher ups of "MHK" and the parents of the girl Y/N attacked.

As Uramichi and Y/N left the bus, they went over to the studio and entered the building while Y/N skipped and held onto her father's hand. Uramichi chuckled, glad to see that Y/N was excited to be back at the studio. After checking in with the receptionist, Uramichi brought Y/N over to the waiting room for the kids, but not before kneeling down to her height and asking her "Promise me you'll be on your best behavior today?". Y/N nodded, Uramichi softly smiling and gave her a kiss on her forehead.

Uramichi than left the waiting room to go get ready for filming, Y/N going over to a group of girls so that she can talk to them. However, she accidently bumped into another kid, falling down on her behind as she made impact with his back. "Hey, watch where you are going!" Y/N said, looking up at the kid as they turned around to see who bumped into them. The kid she bumped into was a boy, who was wearing fancy clothes and had some food on his left cheek. He was also.....super well fed. 

"You watch where your going..." The fat boy said, glaring at Y/N as she got up. The fat boy walked past Y/N, Y/N watching him as he did and thought "What's his problem?". Soon, the door to the set room opened, the children in the waiting room entering it in excitement. Y/N made sure she was in the front, wanting to be close to her father so that he can keep a close eye on her. When the kids went on set, Y/N stood the closet next to Uramichi, Uramichi smiling down at her and ruffling her hair when he saw her.

After Uramichi said his greeting to the camera once filming started, Uramichi looked at the crowd of kids and said to them in his forceful cheerful tone "Wonderful Children, Good Morning!". "Are you all feeling great today too?" Uramichi asked them, Y/N about to nod and smile with the rest of the kids until she felt someone stamp her foot. She winced in pain, looking next to her to see the fat kid from before now standing next to her. 

"I'm full of energy toda-" Uramichi was interrupted by the fat kid, the fat kid saying "Hey" to him in a deadpan voice. Uramichi looked down at him in confusion, his smile still on his face as the fat kid told him "Carry me.". Uramichi was about to tell the kid no, Uramichi's back not being in the best condition to pick up a kid with a massive amount of weight, but noticed that one of the assistant directors had written something on his notepad and showing it to him.

Uramichi looked at what was written, his heart stopping when noticed that it said "That kid is the CEO's grandson.". As Uramichi felt himself freezing, the fat kid saying to him "Hey, Hurry up.". Uramichi looked back at the fat kid, a nervous smile on his face as he said "....O.....Okay!". "Onii-San will pick you up now!" Uramichi exclaimed, picking up the kid and trying to raise him up. Uramichi was in pain due to the kid's weight, but tried to endure it so that he would keep his job.

Y/N saw all of this, getting jealous that her father was carrying someone other than her. "Daddy, pick me up too!" Y/N said, her arms out while the fat kid happily smile in Uramichi's arms, Uramichi just shook his head at Y/N, telling her "I can't right now, sweetie.". Y/N grunted in annoyance, crossing her arms as the fat kid looked at her and stuck his tongue out. Y/N puffed her cheeks, going to the back of Uramichi and jumped up and down to reach his shoulders.

She managed to grab them, wrapping her arms around Uramichi's shoulders and being lifted high in the air. "Y/N, what did I just say!" Uramichi yelled, looking back at Y/N who was now putting him in more pain. Y/N only giggled, blowing a raspberry at the fat boy to show him that Uramichi was carrying her as well. Uramichi tried to keep his balance, but the weight of both kids made him feel something pop in his back.

"Dammit!" Uramichi screamed, dropping the fat boy as he touched his back. The fat boy fell down on his behind, Y/N releasing Uramichi and going over to laugh at the boy. "Haha, you just fell!" Y/N said, giggling while pointing at the fat boy. The fat boy tried to hold back tears, standing up and rubbing his eyes. Uramichi glared at the two, going over to them and grabbing both of their arms. "That's it!" Uramichi said, dragging the two out of the set room as they tried to free themselves from Uramichi's grasp. Uramichi soon entered a room with two chairs in it, forcing Y/N and the fat kid to sit on them.

"When you two learn how to be nice, than you will be able to rejoin us in the next session!" Uramchi told them, anger laced in his voice as he slammed the door shut. As Uramichi sighed and went back to the set room, Y/N stamped her foot and angrily leaned against her chair. "No fair!" Y/N yelled, looking at the fat boy who was staring down at the floor. "This is your fault!" Y/N said, crossing her arms over her chest and waited for a response from the fat boy.

Though....Y/N soon noticed that the fat boy was crying.....

"WAHHH!" The fat boy cried, hanging his head as Y/N widen her eyes at him. "MAMA IS GOING TO BE MAD AT ME!"  The fat boy sobbed, Y/N getting up from her chair and going over to him. As the fat boy's tears fell, Y/N frowned and started to feel bad for him. "He just wanted to be carried by Daddy..." Y/N thought, realizing how selfish she acted earlier. Y/N quickly hugged the fat boy, the fat boy sniffling when she did.  "I'm sorry...." Y/N muttered, The fat boy returning her hug but more tightly.

After the two hugged, the fat boy wiped his tears and got up from his chair, looking through his blurry vision to see that Y/N was wearing a ring. "I like your ring..." The fat boy said, Y/N blushing and holding the hand that was wearing the ring close to her while fidgeting with the ring. "It's not mine....It's my mommy's." "Your mom's?" "Yeah, Daddy gave it to me." The fat boy looked closer at the ring, stars in his red and puffy eyes when he saw how it was crafted.

Y/N giggled, The fat boy blushing and moving closer away from Y/N. "My name is Ryota..." The fat boy introduced himself, Y/N smiling when she saw him glance away in embarrassment with the blush still on his face. "My name's Y/N!" Y/N said, hugging Ryota again and telling him "Let's be friends!". "Friends?" Ryota asked, Y/N nodding and tilting her head in confusion.

"Do you have friends?" Y/N asked, Ryota shaking his head and looking down. Y/N frowned a bit, but quickly smiled again and told Ryota "Than I'll be your first friend!". Ryota softly smiled, hugging Y/N back as he blushed slightly. 

                                                   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Okay, who's ready to join us again-" Uramichi stopped when he opened the door to the room he left Y/N and Ryota in, not expecting what he saw. Y/N and Ryota were sleeping on each other,  their backs to the wall as if they were sitting and talking to one another. Uramichi chuckled, going over to the two and shaking them awake, He didn't want to ruin the sweet moment, but he knew that he would be in big trouble if the CEO found out his grandson didn't attend "Together with Maman".

When Y/N and Ryota woke up, they looked at a smiling Uramichi, who asked them "Had fun with each other?". Y/N and Ryota nodded, Uramichi standing up and telling them "Okay, let's head back.". Y/N and Ryota got up, Uramichi noticing that the two were holding hands with one another while following him back to the set room. For the second session, Y/N and Ryota were always next to each other, the two still holding each other's hands as if they knew each other for such a long time.

Uramichi was confused by this, wanting to know what happened in the room while he was gone. But, he couldn't complain as his daughter was so happy with Ryota, and that was all that mattered to him. When the time came for Ryota to leave, Ryota refused to let go of Y/N, hoding her close as he said to his mother "No, I want to stay with Y/N!". Ryota's mother laughed, pulling Ryota off Y/N and taking his hand into her's. "You'll see Y/N again the next time you'll visit." Ryota's mother said, Ryota pouting and looking back at Y/N as his mother lead him to the exit of the studio.

"Bye Y/N!" Ryota said, Y/N waving goodbye back at him as Ryota brightly smiled and began to told his mom about his first friend. Uramichi kneeled down to his daughter, asking her "I'm guessing you made a new friend today?" as Y/N nodded but eventually frowned when she remembered what she did earlier. "I'm sorry...." Y/N muttered, Uramichi shaking his head and giving Y/N a head pat. 

"It's alright, Y/N." Uramichi said, Y/N looking at him and smiling softly as he stood up and took her hand. "Want to get some ice cream when we leave?" Uramichi asked, Y/N excitedly nodding as they went back into his green room. "I want (F/F)!" Y/n exclaimed, jumping up and down which made Uramichi chuckle.

Right when shooting for "Together with Maman" ended for the day, Uramichi quickly headed out the studio in a rush as he didn't want to be late on anything. "Where are you going?" Mitsuo asked, him and Tobikichi seeing Uramichi speed walk to the exit of the "MHK" studio. "None of your business." Uramichi said to the two, not bothering to look in their direction as he went to the doors of the studio. Mitsuo and Tobikichi watched in confusion as Uramichi soon left the studio, Uramichi picking up the pace as he began to run to the supermarket.

Today was Y/N's birthday, and Uramichi was trying his best to not screw up anything. While Mayuko and Daisuke were in charge of hosting Y/N's birthday party at their house and picking Y/N up from school, Uramichi was in charge of getting the cake that he preordered weeks before Y/N'a birthday. Y/N had already done her part in inviting her classmates to her party, and all she had to do was let the adults handle everything else and wait until the party happened.

Once Uramichi reached the supermarket, he went over to the bakery section and impatiently tapped his finger in the counter, waiting for the cashier to make their appearance. "Hello, how my I help you?" "I have a order I'm waiting on...." "Uh Huh, and what name did you register under the order?" "Omota" the cashier's eyes widened, nervously smiling at Uramichi which made him raise a brow at them. "What happened to it?" "You see....." The cashier soon went into the kitchen and when coming back out, was carrying a cake that was 4 times the size that it was originally ordered in.

"The baker who was in charge of this put in too much flour." The cashier said, chuckling half heartedly as they placed the cake on the counter. Uramichi's eyes widened when he saw the cake, I'm his mouth agape in shock. "Whatever, I'll take it." Uramichi said with an annoyed tone in his voice, paying the cashier the amount owed for the cake. He didn't have enough time to ask for another cake, the party about to start soon. As Uramichi grabbed the cake that was now in a box, he found himself struggling to carry it. "Please don't fall...." Uramichi thought, eventually managing to carry the cake out of the supermarket.

Though, that was as far as Uramichi could carry it, the cake soon slipping from his arms and falling on the hard ground. "No! God dammit!" Uramichi yelled, seeing that cake come out of the box and spatter across the ground. Uramichi kneeled down to the cake, hoping that he could still salvage it. However, the cake was ruined, with no possible way to save it. Uramichi sighed, sitting down as he reached into his pocket to get his iPhone, so that he can text his in laws that they had to do the party without a cake.

But, Uramichi felt nothing, making him realize that he left his phone at the studio. "Great....my luck keeps getting better and better." Uramichi thought, standing up and noticing that some passerby's were looking at him. Uramichi shoved his hands into his jacket's pockets, walking away from the supermarket in embarrassment. "How am I going to explain this to Y/N?" Uramichi said to himself, reaching Mayuko's and Daisuke's house and ringing the doorbell. Strangely, Uramichi expected the party to have started by now, yet he couldn't hear any laughter coming from inside the house.

When the door soon opened, Mayuko greeted Uramichi with a big smile, saying with a cheerful "Come in, darlings!". Though, when she noticed that it was Uramichi who was at the front door, her smile dropped and she looked at him with an disappointed look on her face. "Oh....it's just you." Mayuko said, looking down and seeing that Uramichi wasn't carrying a cake. "No cake?" "Fell out of the box." Mayuko groaned, muttering under her breath "Great....". Uramichi soon asked Mayuko "What? Did  someone bad happen before I arrived?, curious on what caused her to have that reaction.

"Come in and see for yourself." Mayuko said, letting Uramichi into the house. Uramichi looked around, quickly realizing that nobody outside of him, his in laws, and Y/N were inside the house. Y/N was sitting at the couch of the living room, looking down to the floor as she lazily swung her feet. "Nobody came...." Mayuko told Uramichi, Uramichi going over to his daughter and kneeling down to be eye level with her. "Y/N.....did you give the invitations to your classmates like I told you to?" Uramichi asked, Y/N looking at him and nodding her head.

Uramichi frowned, embracing Y/N as she hid her face in his shoulder. Uramichi began to run Y/N's back, Y/N sobbing as Uramichi pressed a small kiss to her forehead. "I'm sorry, sweetheart." Uramichi said, Mayuko watching the scene with a soft expression. Soon, the doorbell rang, making Mayuko and Uramichi look over at it. Mayuko went over to the door, opening it in hopes that it was a child who was invited to Y/N's party.....but what she saw when she did Open the door only made her shut it as fast as she can. "Who was it?" Uramichi asked, Mayuko fearfully leaning on the door as she looked over at him and said "The circus...."

"The circus?" "There was a large bunny and rabbit, as well as two "Clowns" standing in front of me!" Uramichi knew what Mayuko was talking about, standing up and going over to the door. "Move." Uramichi said, waving Mayuko off as he grabbed the handle of the door and opened it, "They're my coworkers.". As Uramichi opened the door, he came face to face with "Usao" and "Kumao", as well as Utano and Iketeru.....even the entire crew of "Together with Maman"! "Heard that there was a birthday girl here!" Utano exclaimed, Iketeru nodding as Uramichi realized why they were here.

"Wait, how did you guys know?" Uramichi asked, "Kumao" holding up his iPhone which screen showed the text messages between him and his in laws discussing the birthday party. Uramichi blushed, taking the phone away from "Kumao" and putting it in his pocket. "You didn't have to come here...." Uramichi said, Derekida chuckling and telling him "And have a little girl's birthday ruined? We don't think so!". Soon, the cast and crew of "Together with Maman" began to enter the house, Uramichi noticing that each of them had a present.

"You know we don't have a cake!" Uramichi said to them, but noticed that Kayo, one of the assistant directors, was carrying one when she entered. "We already have that covered~" Kayo told him, Uramichi smiling a bit as he heard that. As the cast and crew all entered the living room, Y/N's eyes sparkled when she saw them, quickly getting off the couch and running over to them. "Usao! Kumao!" Y/N exclaimed, jumping up and down when she saw the rabbit and bear. " Usao" and "Kumao" both laughed, "Usao" picking up Y/N which made her clap her hands.

"Utano Onee-San and Ikerteru Onii-San!" Y/N exclaimed, seeing the man and woman go over to her and smile. "What are you guys doing here?" Y/N asked, Iketeru saying "Heard someone wasn't having a good day despite it being there birthday.". "So we decided to come and help make the best birthday ever!" Utano exclaimed, Y/N giggling as "Usao" threw her in the air and caught her. "So don't be sad, Hop!" "Usao" said, Y/N nodding as she was put down. "Daddy! Look who came to my birthday!" Y/N exclaimed, Uramichi nodding as he went over to her and ruffled her hair. "So, who wants to blow out their candles and eat some cake?" Uramichi asked, Y/N raising her hand to show that she wanted to do it right now.

Uramichi smiled, taking Y/N's hand as he exclaimed "Alright let's go!" as he lead her into the kitchen, the cast and crew of "Together with Maman" following. Mayuko only watched this, a confused look on her face as her husband went downstairs and froze when he saw the strangers in his home.

"Sweetie, who are these people?" "Just a bunch of weirdos." 

                                               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once cake was served to everyone, Uramichi decided to open the presents while everyone ate. For the first few presents, Y/N got rather normal gifts for little girls such as herself, such as a make up kit (From Ikuko), dolls (From Utano, Kayo, and Iketeru) and a old game boy advance (From both "Usao" and "Kumao"). Though, when Y/N opened a certain present, everyone in the room (expect for Y/N and the giver of the present) blushed.

"Daddy, what is this?" Y/N asked, Furitsuke going over to her and saying "It's a bra, darling!". Uramichi looked at Furitsuke with a shocked look, asking the choreographer "She's 7.......". "She's going to need it later in her life." Furitsuke said, waving her hand at the worried father, "There's no harm in preparing for her future.". Uramichi sighed, looking back at his daughter and going into shock when he saw her wearing the bra on top of her head. "It's like a hat!" Y/N exclaimed, Uramichi quickly taking it off and putting it somewhere far away.

"Okay, next gift!" Uramichi said, wanting to change the subject. He than handed Y/N a weirdly shaped gift, hoping that this one was more normal compared to the last one. When Y/N opened it, she squealed when she saw what it was. "Little Birdy!" Y/N exclaimed, the present being a plushie of Uramichi's Dream bird. As Y/N held the birdy close, Uramichi looked at Hanabee with a glare. "You have her that, didn't you?" Uramichi asked, Hanabee smirking and nodding his head. Uramichi sighed, not being able to argue with Hanabee since Y/N absolutely loved her present. "Alright, Our present is next!" Mayuko said, Y/N looking over at her as Mayuko smiled at her granddaughter. "Bring them in, Honey!" Mayuko called out to Daisuke, Daisuke going over to Y/N, Y/N smiling brightly when she saw what was in his arms.

"Kitty!" Y/N exclaimed, getting out of her chair and running over to her grandfather. "Kitty! Kitty!" Daisuke chuckled, handing Y/N the orange kitten. "Thank you!" Y/N said, Mayuko and Daisuke nodding and smiling at the little girl's happiness. "Their name is Natsu!" Mayuko told Y/N, Y/N giggling as she heard the kitten meow and cuddle into her. Everyone began to crowd around Y/N, wanting to see the kitten for themselves. Uramichi quickly got jealous, thinking that this was some trick by his in laws in order to get Y/N to like them even more so that they can get custody of her easily.

Uramichi cleared his throat, making everyone turn towards him as he said "Guess I'm the last one to give their present!". Y/N put Natsu down, going over to her father as he kneeled down to her height while hiding his present behind his back. "Close your eyes...." Uramichi told Y/N, Y/N noddding and tightly shutting them. Uramichi chuckled, taking his present out and putting it on Y/N's ring finger. "Okay, you can open them now." As Y/N did just that, she gasped when she saw what was on her ring finger.

"This is-" "Mommy's ring." Y/N looked at her father, tears forming in her eyes as Uramichi softly smiled at her and said "I want you to guard this with your life.....". Y/N smiled and nodded, hugging her father as tightly as she could. Uramichi laughed, hugging his daughter back as everyone gave out an "Awe" at the sight. Well, everyone except Mayuko, who only  fumed when she saw that Uramichi had managed to win Y/N over.

                                            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Thank you for coming!" Y/N exclaimed, waving goodbye to the cast and crew of "Together with Maman" as they left the house, waving goodbye back to Y/N. "Are you ready to leave yet?" Uramichi asked, putting on his beanie and jacket as Y/N nodded and grabbed ahold of his hand. "It sucks that you can't bring Natsu with you....." Mayuko said, holding the kitten in her arms as Y/N frowned when she was reminded. The apartment complex Uramichi and Y/N lived at didn't allow animals, so Natsu had to stay Mayuko and Daisuke.

"I'll promise that I'll visit Natsu!" Y/N said, Mayuko chuckling and giving her a head pat. "Bye grandma!" Y/N said, her and Uramichi soon leaving the house and heading back to their own. "That was the best birthday I ever had!" Y/N said as she and Uramichi walked down the path to their apartment complex, Uramichi chuckling and telling her "You said that about your last birthday." Y/N giggled, skipping past Uramichi while Uramichi smiled. "Ohhh, Daddy look!" Y/N said, pointing to a small crab that was on the path.

Uramichi nodded, seeing Y/N bend down to get a closer look at the crab. Y/N was about to touch it, but the crab ended up pinching her finger. "Ow!" Y/N said, Uramichi going over to her and examining her finger. Uramichi sighed in relief when he saw that the wound was small, no blood coming out from it. "We Better bring the crab back to the river before someone  decides to hurt it!" Y/N told her father, Uramichi smiling as he picked up the the crab. Y/N and him than went to the river, Uramichi placing the crab next to it and waiting for it to crawl back to the water.

"Go on~" Y/N said, playfully pushing the crab into the water. As Y/N and Uramichi watched it sink, Y/N said to it "Bye Bye, Mr. Crab!". Uramichi chuckled, taking ahold of Y/N's hand as she waved goodbye to the crab.

"You're so caring....." Uramichi thought, smiling as Y/N hummed a melody to herself

The wake for Sayaka was a blur to Uramichi.....

His mind was somewhere else for the entire thing, the only time he snapped back to reality was when he was called up to see Sayaka one last time Before her cremation. Uramichi went over to her casket, looking down to see just how peaceful Sayaka was. Sayaka's eyes were closed, the smile she gave Uramichi before she passed still on her face. Around her casket were flowers of every color, having been given by the people who were called out before Uramichi.

Uramichi had an emotionless look on his face, trying to hold back tears as he noticed just how beautiful Sayaka was. Uramichi didn't want to cry, knowing that Sayaka wouldn't want him to do so especially if it was over her. Uramichi than kissed Sayaka's forehead on last time, holding back a sob as he took out a ring from his suit's pocket. It was the ring he gave Sayaka when he proposed to her, wanting her to be cremated with the ring.

As Uramichi softly grabbed Sayaka's hand, he slowly placed the ring on her ring finger. "I love you...." Uramichi muttered, walking away from the casket and towards his sister. Uramichi's sister, Itsuki, quickly embraced him, holding him close as Uramichi hid his face in her shoulder and began to cry. "Shhh...It's okay." Itsuki said, rubbing Uramichi's back while more tears fell down his face. As Uramichi soon calmed down, Itsuki released him and gave him a small smile, telling her brother "You did good...." while squeezing his hand in comfort.

(This is what Itsuki looks like)

Uramichi nodded, looking back to see Sayaka's parents, Mayuko and Daisuke, go over to their daughter's casket. Mayuko was crying, Daisuke trying to hold back his own tears as he rubbed his wife's back. "Why...Just why?!" Mayuko sobbed out, falling to her knees as she covered her face with her hands. Daisuke hugged his wife, helping her up as they walked away from the casket and out the chapel. Uramichi than looked over at Itsuki, who had a soft expression on her face as she told him "Let's go....."

Uramichi followed Itsuki out the chapel, seeing that guests were now crowded around Mayuko and Daisuke and giving their condolences about their daughter to them. "Your Uramichi, right?" A woman asked Uramichi, Uramichi turning to face her as she went over to him. "I'm Natsumi, I was a apart of the volleyball club with Sayaka....." The woman named Natsumi said, Uramichi not saying anything as he just nodded and stared at her. "Sayaka told me about you and......oh god." Natsumi covered her mouth with her hand, chocking back a sob as she cried out "Why did we have to meet like this!"

Uramichi felt more tears about to fall down his face, but was lead away by Itsuki and to her car. Uramichi sat in the passengers seat while Itsuki sat at the driver's seat. Uramichi looked out the window, seeing that Sayaka's casket was now being carried to the hearse. "Uramichi, Don't look...." Itsuki said, starting the car as she grabbed her brother's hand, "You'll make it harder on yourself...". Uramichi didn't say anything, looking at the windshield as Itsuki drive the car to the crematorium.

The drive to the crematorium was long in Uramichi's mind, the only time he realized the car stopped was when Itsuki nudged him to let him know that they arrived. Uramichi got out of the car, seeing that Mayuko and Daisuke have also arrived due to their car being parked in the parking lot. "I'll stay in here." Itsuki told Uramichi, still in the driver's seat with a soft smile on her face, "They only want the family of Sayaka in there.....".

Uramichi gave out a deep breath, entering the crematorium and saw Mayuko and Daisuke standing in the hallway while to one of the crematorium's technicians. The three looked over at Uramichi, the technician motioning Uramichi to come over to them. "Sayaka's already in the incinerator...." the technician told Uramichi, Uramichi nodding as he looked down to his feet. "Once the incineration is complete, we'll call you over to collect the bones." Uramichi nodded again, the technician apologizing for his loss and leaving him with his in laws.

"Where's our granddaughter...." Mayuko asked, Daisuke having an arm a wrapped around her as Uramichi looked up at them, the woman wanting to see where her son in law had his daughter during all of this. "She's being watched by my mother...." Uramichi said, Mayuko's lip quivering while she attempted to hold back tears. The rest of the wait was quiet, the three not saying anything to each other.  The technician than went back into the hall, telling them that the cremation was complete and that they could come in now.

Uramichi followed his in laws into the room, looking over at the table that had Sayaka's ashes and bones. The technician soon gave chopsticks to Uramichi, Mayuko, and Daisuke, saying that they were now allowed to pick the bones and put them into the urn. "I CAN'T!" Mayuko screamed, dropping the chopsticks as she left the room, "NOT MY LITTLE GIRL!". The technician was about to follow Mayuko, but Daisuke stopped him, telling him "Let her....she's been through too much."

The technician nodded, leaving the room so that Uramichi and Daisuke could pick the bones in piece. The bone picking between the two men was silent,  none of them saying a word. "She's beautiful you know...." Daisuke said, Uramichi looking over at him as Daisuke gave him a sad smile. "Your daughter.....she's beautiful." Uramichi nodded, going back to picking the final bone and placing it in the urn.

The technician came back into the room with Mayuko, the urn being given to the latter. "We'll be going now...." Daisuke said, leading his wife away from Uramichi and to their car, Mayuko holding onto the urn close to her. "My baby...." Mayuko mumbled, Daisuke opening the passengers seat door for her as she got in. Uramichi went back to Itsuki's car, opening the door and getting in while Itsuki asked "How did it go?". "Fine...." Uramichi said, Itsuki frowning and starting the car back up.

The car than drove off to their mother's house, picking up Y/N so that that can  return to Uramichi's house and rejoin the memorial service. When they arrived, Itsuki got out the car first and helped Uramichi out, the two going to the front of the small house and ringing the doorbell. The door soon opened, Uramichi and Ituski's mother covering her mouth when she saw her children. "Is she okay?" Itsuki asked, she meaning Uramichi's daughter. The mother nodded, going back into the house and returning with a small rosy skinned baby in her arms.

"Here you go...." The mother said, handing the baby to Uramichi. "I'm so sorry for Sayaka...." The mother muttered, holding back her own tears, "She was an absolute sweetheart.". The door to the house then closed, Uramichi and Itsuki heading back to the car. Uramichi held his daughter close to him as he sat back in the passengers seat, tears falling down his face as he looked into her eyes. "Uramichi...." Itsuki said, rubbing her brother's back as he began to cry. "I.....I can't do this!" Uramichi cried out, hanging his head as he sobbed, "I can't do this without her!"

Itsuki hugged her brother, Uramichi laying his head on her shoulder as he continued to cry........

                                                ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The memorial service has since ended, weeks having  passed. Itsuki decided to stay with Uramichi, knowing that he needed as much help as possible with his daughter. Itsuki found herself doing most of the work in the house, mainly taking care of the baby while Uramichi stayed in bed. Itsuki tried her best to leave him be, knowing that he needed his time to mourn. As Itsuki breastfed her brother's daughter, she looked around the nursery that she was in and smiled a bit.

Itsuki remembered how much Uramichi and Sayaka worked on they worked on the nursery, Knowing just how much laughter was shared among the two as they did. When Itsuki finished breastfeeding the baby, she put the baby back in her crib and realized that she didn't have a name yet. Itsuki sighed, leaving the nursery and going to Uramichi's room. "Uramichi...." Itsuki softly said, softly knocking on the slightly opened door. "Need anything?" "....No." Uramichi had his back turned on Itsuki, looking out the window which had rain droplets on it.

"You know you still need to name her." Itsuki said, going over to Uramichi's bed and sitting on the side. "I know....." Uramichi muttered, Itsuki sadly smiling and tickling her brother's neck. "Itsuki, stop it...." "C'mon, you loved that when we were little" "Now's not the time....." Uramichi looked back at Itsuki, a glare on his face that was targeted to her. Itsuki was taken back, slowly nodding and getting off the bed. "I'll make some ramen for you...." Itsuki said, Uramichi not responding as she frowned and left the room.

Itsuki went back to the nursery to check up on the baby, looking down at the crib and saw that she was sleeping. "Such a cutie...." Itsuki thought, smiling as she pressed a kiss to her niece. Itsuki then heard the house phone ringing, quickly leaving the nursery and going over to the phone. "Hello?" Itsuki asked, answering the phone and waiting for the other lien to say something back to her.

And who was on the other line shocked her........

                                              ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Uramichi.....Sayaka's parents are here...." Itsuki told her brother, Uramichi still having his back turned towards her. "Tell them I'm not coming down....." "It's important." Uramichi looked back at Itsuki, seeing that his sister had a worried look on her face. Uramichi sighed, slowly getting up from his bed and going over to Itsuki. Itsuki smiled at him, hugging Uramichi tightly as she told him "I'm so proud of you....". Uramichi nodded, following Itsuki downstairs and to the living room.

Mayuko and Daisuke were sitting at the couch, as well as a woman Uramichi never saw before. "Are you Uramichi Omota?" The woman asked, Uramichi nodding as the woman extended her arm out for a handshake. "Chika Yamada, I'm with Child protective services." The woman named Chika said, Uramichi shaking her hand back. "What do you want?" "Firstly, my condolences for the loss of your fiancée....." "Is that all?" Chika cleared her throat, crossing her arms across her chest as she told Uramichi "Sayaka's parents, Mayuko and Daisuke.......They contacted me about having possible custody of your daughter."

(This is what Mrs.Yamada looks like)

"They....want custody?" Uramichi asked, looking over at Mayuko and Daisuke as Chika nodded. "They were worried for your mental health, and they wanted custody as they thought this wasn't the best place to keep your daughter at." Chika told Uramichi, Uramichi sitting down at a chair and holding his head which was pounding. "Are you okay?" Itsuki asked, going over to her brother as Uramichi nodded and told her "Just...trying to process everything."

"We're giving you a week to make the decision on whether or not you would like to give them custody." Chika said, grabbing her bag and beginning to walk away from the living room. Before Chika left the house, she looked back at Uramichi and saying to him "Please choose the right decision.....". As Chika left the house, Mayuko and Daisuke got up from the couch and approached Uramichi, Daisuke telling him "We're not trying to ruin your life, Uramichi.....".

"We just what is best for our granddaughter....." Daisuke and Mayuko than left the house themselves, leaving Uramichi and Itsuki in the living room. "Uramichi...." Itsuki muttered, Uramichi getting up and leaving the living room to head upstairs. Itsuki watched, following him and seeing that he was going inside the nursery. As Uramichi entered the nursery, he went to his daughter and picked her up, holding her close as he looked down at her. "Y/N......" Uramichi muttered, Itsuki going into the nursery and hearing what he just said.

Uramichi than looked at Itsuki, a sad smile on his face as he cradled his daughter in his arms, saying to his sister "Her name is Y/N......". Itsuki smiled back at her brother, going over to him and rubbing his back as he began to cry.\

                                                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The night had came, Itsuki having since fallen asleep in the guest room while Uramichi was still awake and watching Y/N while in he crib. Uramichi extended his finger to Y/N, Y/N grabbing it and putting it in her mouth. Uramichi chuckled, picking his daughter up again in his arms and started to cradle her. "You have your mother's eyes...." Uramichi muttered, Y/N  giggling and looking at him innocently.

Uramichi smiled softly, sitting down at the chair in the nursery as he looked up at the ceiling. He wished Sayaka was with him, so that Sayaka could see that he  chose the name she wanted to name her child for a long time. "Y/N" was the name Sayaka wanted to name the baby, whether or not it was a boy or girl. Uramichi personally preferred the name "Sakura" for their daughter, but ever since the passing of Sayaka, couldn't possibly use the name for his daughter.

As Uramichi sighed, he felt his shirt got pulled a bit by Y/N, looking down to see her with a big smile on her face. Uramichi sadly smiled at her, putting his forehead on her's as he rocked back and forth of the chair. "My baby...." Uramichi whispered, the baby giggling as he gave her another kiss on her forehead.

"I love you.....so much....."

                                               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Uramichi snapped back to reality, feeling someone tug on his shirt. "Daddy!"  Y/N exclaimed, jumping up and down with her arms extended out, "Pick me up!". Uramichi looked down at Y/N, realizing that she wasn't baby anymore but a 6 year old. "Up!" Y/N said again, Uramichi nodding and picking the young girl up. "Why was I thinking about the past?" Uramichi thought, Y/N cuddling into his chest which made him smile.

Sometimes, Uramichi thought about how much Y/N was the thing that kept him fighting, the person who helped put the fire he used to have back in his eyes when he lost it....even just for a little bit.

The guy Uramichi used to be was since lost, but he used to be his......and the new person he was inspired him to make sure that he made the only person who truly makes him smile to be happy......

"I love you, Y/N....." Uramichi muttered, holding his daughter close as Y/N giggled and said "I love you, daddy." Right back at him.

Uramichi softly smiled, giving Y/N a kiss as he thought to himself

"Daddy?" Y/N asked, tugging on her father's shirt as he looked over at her while sitting on the couch with a beer can in hand. "What is it, Y/N?" "What was Mommy like?" Uramichi looked at Y/N with wide eyes, not expecting his daughter to ask that question. It was late at night, and Y/N was supposed to be in bed. However, she woke up as she wanted to ask Uramichi a question she has been meaning to ask for a long time.

As Y/N stared at her father with her big doe eyes, Uramichi sighed as he picked her up and placed her on his lap. "What possessed you to ask this?" Uramichi asked, Y/N looking up at him as he gave her a kiss on her temple. "We had to draw our families today." Y/N said, frowning when she remembered what happened at school earlier, "And I didn't draw a mommy, despite the fact that all of my classmates drew one with them and their daddies.". Uramichi's expression softened, feeling Y/N lay her head on his chest as he said to her "Because you don't know what mommy looks like, right?".

Y/N nodded, Uramichi chuckling as he stood up with Y/N in his arms and went to his bedroom. As he entered the room, Uramichi placed Y/N on his bed and went into his closet, scrummaging through some things in order to find the thing he needed. He than got out of the closet, a big photobook in his hand as she sat down next to Y/N on the bed. "This is where all of the pictures of mommy are stored." Uramichi said, showing Y/N the photobook. Y/N looked at the cover, seeing bold text that read "MEMORIES" on it.

Uramichi soon opened the photobook, pointing to a photo that showed a beautiful woman in her 20s smiling. "That's...." Uramichi trailed off, realizing just how long it has been since he saw a picture of his fiancée. Y/N looked at her father, noticing that his eyes were watery and that he was chocking back a sob. Y/N grabbed her father's hand, Uramichi looking over to his daughter and seeing that she was smiling at him. Uramichi smiled back, clearing his throat and saying "That's your mommy."

(This is what the mother looks like)

"She's pretty...." "Yeah, she was the prettiest woman daddy ever met." Uramichi smiled as Y/N giggled, the two looking at the picture. "How did you meet mommy?" Y/N asked, Uramichi looking at her and smiling as he gave her a head pat. "Well, we attended the same university together." Uramichi said, remembering the day he first met his fiancée for the first time.

A 21 year old Uramichi wasn't paying attention to his surroundings, his main attention to the board which read the 1st place winners of the sports festival that took place just a few days ago. Uramichi was 1st place in the gymnastics section, which didn't surprise him one bit. Uramichi was one of the best students at "Nippon sport science university", and while he was popular at the school, he would rather care less for it.

Uramichi didn't exactly plan on leading the life of an athlete, being forced down the path by his father. He would rather be someone who worked with kids, but he knew that his father would only scoff at that. So, Uramichi sucked it up and took up gymnastics, growing to slightly like it as time went on. While Uramichi stared at board, he didn't notice a girl his age running while trying to catch a ball that was heading in his direction.

"Hey, watch out!" the girl called to him, Uramichi turning around and almost getting hit by the ball. Thankfully, the girl went in front of him and spiked it, sending it to another girl who grabbed it. The girl looked back at Uramichi, who was giving her a glare. "C'mon, I just saved your life~" The girl said, smiling as Uramichi clicked his tongue at her.

"What are you doing playing volleyball in the hallways anyways?" Uramichi asked, The girl nervously chuckling and scratching the back of her head. "I'm apart of the volleyball club....and let's just say our match kinda went a little crazy." The girl said, Uramichi sighing as he realized that he was dealing with a "Genki Girl". "My name's Sayaka...." the girl said, extending her hand out for a handshake, "Sayaka Tanaka.". Uramichi raised a brow at Sayaka's hand, turnign away from her and saying "Uramichi Omota...."

As Uramichi walked away from her, Sayaka called out to him "Hope to see you again, Uramichi!". Uramichi only groaned mentally, thinking to himself "Hope to see you never...."

"Mommy was a really cheerful person." Uramichi said, having just finished telling Y/N about his first meeting with Sayaka, "Though, she was too cheerful for her own good sometimes.". Y/N giggled, asking her father "Did you love mommy from the start?". Uramichi nervously looked at Y/N, telling her "Well, not at first...". "What do you mean?" "I thought mommy was kinda annoying at first....". Y/N gasped, covering her mouth in shock when she heard that.

Uramichi bursted out laughing, holding his heart to his chest as he told his daughter "You're acting like we didn't end up together!". Y/N tilted her head in confusion, asking her father "But you said that you found mommy annoying?". Uramichi softly smiled at Y/N, ruffling her hair as he said "I said at first, it wasn't until I met her again that I truly realized that she was special to me..."

Uramichi's mind than went to his second meeting with Sayaka.....

As Uramichi landed onto the map, he wobbled a bit before regaining his balance and standing up straight. "Shit..." Uramichi thought, this being the 8th time he screwed up on his landing. He was glad that his father wasn't here to witness this, as he would have been given a slap on the arm with a ruler. Uramichi was about to grab onto the swing bars again, but he soon heard clapping coming from behind him. Uramichi looked back, his eyes widening when he saw who was clapping.

It was Sayaka, who was sitting at one of the seats at the stands with her bag slung across her. Sayaka was smiling, continuing to clap for Uramichi to show her enjoyment at his performance. Uramichi only glared at her, scoffing as he grabbed ahold of the swing bars and held onto them tightly as he raised himself up. "Why are you doing them again?" Sayaka asked, Uramichi ignoring her as he flipped his body around once he released the swing bars.

He managed to land perfectly this time, but he heard a popping sound when his feet hit the map. Uramichi winched in pain, knowing exactly where the popping sound came from. "Oh my god, are you okay?!" Sayaka cried out, running over to Uramichi's side as he limped over to the stands. "Yeah, it's just a small sprain." "You still need to head to the nurse!" Uramichi only looked at Sayaka with a annoyed look, telling her "I told you...it's a small sprain."

Sayaka crossed her arms and huffed, telling Uramichi "What if you sprain it again?". Uramichi tried to ignore her, but Sayaka took his arm and wrapped it around her neck. "What are you-" Uramichi was interrupted when Sayaka told him "I'm taking you to the nurse's office....", dragging him out the gymnasium and into the hallway. Uramichi blushed as other students watched Sayaka carry him, embarrassed that he, one of the star students at Nippon, was injured abd being taken to the nurse's office.

When the two reached the nurse's office, Sayaka laid Uramichi on the bed and told the nurse what happened, Uramichi looking away from her with a small pout on his face. "Alright, just wrap this around his foot." The nurse said, handing Sayaka a wrap of bandage. "Wait, I'm doing it?" "Isn't he your boyfriend?" Sayaka and Uramichi both blushed extremely, the two of them saying to the nurse in unison "We are not dating!"

Sayaka sighed, going over to Uramichi and taking out some bandages from the wrap. As she began to remove Uramichi's shoe and sock, she began to put the bandage on the foot that was sprained. "Ow, ow, ow...." Uramichi said, feeling more pain enter his foot as the bandage was pressed onto it. Sayaka smirked, saying to Uramichi in a smug way "Looks like you really do have feelings.". Uramichi just glared at her, Sayaka finishing putting the bandages on him.

"Rest here for a bit before the pain goes away," The nurse said, leaving her office as she said to the two "I'll leave you two lovebirds here till than....". Sayaka blushed and threw the wrap of bandages at the door, groaning when she heard laughter from the other side of the door. Uramichi laid back on the bed, Sayaka sitting on a chair at his bed side.

Silence came between the two, none of them knowing what they should say to each other. Uramichi sighed, wanting to break the tension and asking Sayaka "Why did you help me?". "Huh?" "I told you I was fine, but you still took me to the nurse.......why?". Sayaka only looked at Uramichi in confusion not knowing what he meant by that. "My father always said that the pain heals eventually and that I don't need any medical assistance....." Uramichi said, Sayaka scoffing when she heard that.

"Please, going to a hospital isn't going to kill you." Sayaka said, Uramichi looking over at her as she told him "As someone who's father is a doctor, I can assure you that there is nothing wrong with hospitals.". Uramichi chuckled, looking up to the ceiling as silence came over them again. "Sooo......you do gymnastics?" Sayaka asked, Uramichi nodding as he looked back at her and playfully asked "And you do Volleyball?". Sayaka nodded, Uramichi chuckling as he sat up on the bed.

"To be fair, I had to beg my parents to go here." "Really?" "Yeah, they wanted me to be a lawyer or a doctor like them." Sayaka's mouth than formed a smile, looking at Uramichi as she told him "But volleyball is one of the few things I enjoy.". Uramichi was taken back, shocked by what Sayaka told him. "What about you?" Sayaka asked, pulling her chair closer to Uramichi's bed, "Did your parents not want you to do gymnastics?"..

Uramichi shook his head, telling Sayaka "Nah, Dad wanted me and my sister to do this.". Sayaka laughed, saying to him "Well, at least they're encouraging you to do the things you love!". Uramichi tensed up when Sayaka said that, not really agreeing with her on that. Sayaka soon looked at the clock, realizing that she was late for a meet up with her friends. "Sorry, need to get going!" Sayaka said, grabbing her bag and about to head out the nurse's office.

"Wait!" Uramichi said, Sayaka looking at him to see what he wanted. Uramichi than softly smiled at her and said "Thanks for everything today....", Sayaka blushing and nodding. Sayaka soon left the room, Uramichi laying back on the bed.....and touching his face when he noticed just how hot it was.

Uramichi chuckled as Y/N's eyes sparkled, Y/N telling him "Mommy is the best!". Uramichi nodded, looking back at the photobook and flipping the page for more pictures of Sayaka. "Oh, I love this one!" Uramichi exclaimed, pointing to a picture of him and Sayaka. The picture showed Sayaka taking a selife, her tongue out and smiling as Uramichi looked at her annoyed, trying his best to not be in the photo. "This was from our first date!" Uramichi said, Y/N looking at the picture and giggling.

"Why are you hiding from the camera?" Y/N asked, Uramichi chuckling as he told her "Daddy is not one for pictures....". Y/N smiled, looking back at the picture and saying "Mommy has my eyes!". Uramichi nodded, noticing that they were the same color. "You and Mommy share alot of things in common....." Uramichi said, thinking back to his first date with Sayaka.

"Uramichi!" Sayaka called out, running over to said man as he stood in front of an arcade. "Sorry that I was late...." Sayaka said, taking her android from out of her purse so that she can take a quick selfie with it. Uramichi looked at her annoyed, seeing that she was trying to get him in the selfie. "Hell no...." Uramichi thought, moving away from the camera's range as Sayaka smiled and let her tongue out.

As Sayaka took her selfie, she looked at it and smiled. "That's a keeper!" Sayaka exclaimed, pressing the save button as Uramichi sighed. "Why did I ask you out again?" Uramichi thought, him and Sayaka entering the arcade. The two didn't notice that two certain kouhais were watching them, both of them hoping that their senpai would achieve in making it first base with his date.

"So....what game do you want to try first?" Uramichi asked, not being one for video games. Sayaka looked around the arcade, grabbing Uramichi's arm and pointed to a crane game. "You have to get me a plushie!" Sayaka exclaimed, Uramichi knowing that this was happen as winning a plushie for your date was destined when you have a date at an arcade.

Uramichi sighed, nodding as he and Sayaka went to the crane game. "Get me the pikachu!" Sayaka said, Uramichi inserting some coins into the slot and grabbed ahold of the crane mover. "Okay, this has to be easy..." Uramichit thought, moving the crane to the pikachu plush and pressing the button to grab it. When it did, Urmaichi and Sayaka's eyes sparkled.....but they soon went lifeless when the pikachu plush slipped from the crane.

Uramichi looked at Sayaka nervosuly, putting more coins in the slot and trying to grab the pikachu again. Though, try after try, the pikachu plush would only end up slipping from the crane's grasp. "I hate this!" Uramichi screamed, slamming his fists on the crane. "Let's try soemthing else..." Sayaka said, feeling bad for Uramichi. Uramichi just shook his head, putting the last of his coins in the slot and trying the crane yet again

and this time, he finally managed to grab a plushie.....

"LET'S GO!" Urmaichi exclaimed, falling to his knees and laughing hysterically. "Uramichi....this is a magikarp." Sayaka said, Uramichi looking up at her with the smile still on his face. "What....." Uramichi said, but to his surprise, Sayaka held the magikarp plushie close to her as she said to him "I love it!". Sayaka began to skip away from Uramichi, Uramichi standing up and smiling softly when he saw just how Sayaka was with the plushie.

"Man, she only said that to not break him...." a voice from behind Uramichi said, Urmaichi looking back to see Tobikichi and MItsuo hiding behind a shoot em up game. Tobikichi and Mistuo quickly realized that they were caught, watching in fear as Uramichi approached them and cracked his fists. After beating up his two kouhai, Uramichi went back to Sayaka and continued their date, hoping to make the best of it.

After hours of DDR, horror games, and shoot em up games, Sayaka and Uramichi managed to lose track of time due to the amount of fun they were having. "Thanks for asking me out, Uramichi." Sayaka said, her and Uramichi leaving the arcade. Uramichi nodded, Sayaka blushing as the two stood outside the arcade. "Before I go...." Sayaka soon pressed a kiss to Uramichi's cheek, Uramichi blushing harde than he ever did before. "See you tomorrow...." Sayaka said, winking at Uramichi as she walked away from him.

Uramichi smiled, walking the other way from Sayaka while thinking to himself "God....do I love her."

Y/N wanted to hear more stories about her mother, never realizing that she was this amazing. Uramichi wanted to keep going, a feeling of warmth inside him when he told Y/N about Sayaka. "Want to know about how me and Mommy got married?" Uramichi asked, Y/N nodding excitedly as she sat closer to him. Uramichi started to chucke at this, flipping to the page to find the photo where he proposed to Sayaka.

He found it. the picture being of his and Sayaka's wedding rings. "Wow, they look so pretty!" Y/N exclaimed, Uramichi nodding as he told her "I bought them myself.". Y/N smiled, laying her head on Uramichi's shoulder, as he said "Daddy took mommy to her most favorite place when he proposed...."

Uramichi than quickly thought to the day he proposed, remembering just how happy Sayaka was.

"Are you sure you're not looking?" "I'm not...." Uramichi chuckled, taking out the small black box from his pocket and opening it. Inside was a beautifully crafted ring, which he would soon be giving to Sayaka. As Sayaka stood next to Uramichi with her eyes closed, Uramichi took the ring out of the box and grabbed Sayaka's hand. He than slid the ring on her ring finger, softtly smiling as he stepped back.

"Okay, open them." Uramichi told Sayaka, Sayaka opening her eyes and looking down to see the ring on her finger. Sayaka gasped, covering her mouth with her other hand while tears fell from her eyes. "Uramichi, you didn't!" "I did...." Sayaka looked at her boyfriend, Uramichi smiling as he asked her "Will you marry me?". Sayaka nodded, exclaiming "Yes...Yes, I will!".

Sayaka jumped into Uramichi's arms, kissing him as she sobbed in joy. Uramichi kissed Sayaka back, tears threatening to escape his own eyes. As Uramichi put Sayaka down, he took out another black box and handed it to Sayaka. Sayaka giggled, opening it to reveal a ring that was similar to her's. "It's your turn...." Uramichi said, Sayaka nodding and taking the ring out of the box. She soon put the ring on Uramichi's ring finger, more tears falling down her face as she laughed.

"You don't know how happy I am right now..." Sayaka said, Uramichi nodding as he kissed her again. "Let me just...." Sayaka soon took out her android phone and put her and Uramichi's ring together, taking a photo on it and captioning it "Guess who just popped the question!".

Uramichi smiled as Sayaka kissed him and tightly embraced him, nuzzling her face into his neck as Uramichi hugged her back. "I love you...." Sayaka muttered, Uramichi saying it back to her and pressing a kiss to her forehead.

"Oh.....I remember this one...." Uramichi said, having just flipped a page and noticed a photo of a positive pregnancy test. "Is that?" "Yep...." Uramichi looked over at Y/N, smiling at her as he told her "That was the day mommy told me that you were about to enter this world....". Y/N smiled brightly, looking down at the picture with stars in her eyes.

"Tell me!Tell me!" Y/N said, Uramichi nodding and looking back down to the picture. "You see, there are different ways to tell your partnet about ou being pregnant." Uramichi told Y/N, chuckling as he remembered the way Sayaka did it, "And your mommy had a really intresting way to do so."

Sayaka quickly placed the bread bun in the oven, shutting it as she took a deep breath. "Uramichi!" Sayaka called out to her fiancée, a smile on her face as she heard Uramichi heading down the stairs. "Yeah?" he asked, Syaka giggling and pointing to the oven. "Look inside." She told Uramichi, Uramichi looking at her confused as he opened it. "It's a bun....in the oven...." Uramichi said, looking at Sayaka who was now laughing.

Sayaka than showed Uramichi the pink pregnancy test she hid behind her back, Uramichi grabbing it and looking at the results. "It's positive..." Sayaka told him, Uramichi looking up at her with eyes. "You're joking...." Uramichi said, a smile creeping onto his face as Sayaka shook her head. Uramichi laughed, falling to his knees as he covered his face with his hands.

Sayaka went over to him, rubbing his back as Uramichi looked at her and brought her into a hug. "How long?" Uramichi asked, but not before giving Sayaka a long passionate kiss. "Two weeks...." "Two weeks?" "Wanted to make sure everything was legit." Uramichi smiled, kissing Sayaka again as he put his forehead on her's.

"Found out the gender yet?" Uramichi asked, Sayaka shaking her head as she told him "They're gonna announce it when I give birth.". Uramichi smiled at Sayaka, the two sharing a kiss as they held each other.

"Do I have a picture with Mommy?" Y/N asked, making Uramichi freeze when he heard that. Y/N noticed this, asking her father "What's wrong?". Uramichi snapped back to reality, looking at his daughter and sighed. "You see....When a woman gets pregnant, they have to hold in the baby for 9 months." Uramichi said, Y/N nodding as Uramichi frowned. "However, when mommy had you....she only was able to hold you in her stomach for 7 months." "What does that mean?" "You were... a bit premature."

Y/N laid her head on Urmichi's chest, Uramichi holding her close as he thought back to his daughter's birth. "Mommy had....complications when she had you." Uramichi said, tears now falling down his face, Y/N looking up at him.

"What happened?" "You see....."

This wasn't supposed to happen.....

Sayaka was just 7 months pregnant, meaning that she still had two more months to go. How the hell did her water break already? Uramichi was at the gym when he received the call that Sayaka was in the hospital, rushing there as fast as he could so that he could be there with her.

"AHHH!" Sayaka screamed, grabbing ahold of Uramichi's hand as she laid on the hospital bed, the doctor about to deliver her baby. "Just one more push...." The doctor said, Uramichi rubbing Sayaka's hand as he whispered to her "You're doing great....". As Sayaka pushed one last time, a baby's cries were soon heard thoughtout the hospital.

"It's a girl!" The doctor said, pulling the baby out of Sayaka as the nurse wrapped her around in a towel. "Want to cut the cord?" The nurse asked, giving the scissors to Uramichi. Uramichi nodded, grabbing the scissors and cutting the baby's cord with them. "Sayaka, you did it!" Uramichi exclaimed, looking at his fiancee with a big smile on his face

Though...his smile soon dropped when he saw just how weak she looked.

"Sayaka?" Uramichi asked,the sound of the heart monitor soon slowing down. "She's losing too much blood!" The doctor shouted, nurses soon crowding around Sayaka. "What's....What's happening?" Uramichi thought, soon finding himself getting pushed out the hospital room by two nurses. However, before he was kicked out, he saw Sayaka look at him with a small smile and say to him "I'm sorry......Watch over our daughter for me..........I love you."

The sound of the heart monitor soon flatlined, Uramichi getting pushed out the room and having the door slammed shut in front of him. Uramichi fell to his knees, not wanting to believe what just happened to be true. "Uramichi! What happened to our daughter!" Daisuke yelled at him, picking him up and angrily looking at him as Mayuko sobbed into her hand.

Uramichi didn't say anything, only biting his lip as tears fell down his face.

Uramichi couldn't hold back his scream.......

Y/N sobbed, looking down to the floor as Uramichi finished telling her what happened on the day of her birth. Uramichi was crying too, holding Y/N close to him as he lifted her chin up to make her look at him. "What happened that day was not your fault...." Uramichi said, Y/N wiping her tears away with her sleeves. "Your mommy tried her hardest to see you....she really wanted to meet you." Uramichi chocked back a sob, covering his mouth with his hand as he began to cry again.

Y/N hugged her father, crying into his neck as Uramichi hugged her back. The father and daughter could only cry, their comforts being each other......

                                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As Y/N slept on her bed, Uramichi watched her with a soft look on his face. He saw that Y/N's hand was free, grabbing it and holding onto it tightly. As Uramichi thought back to what happened earlier, he began to cry again, wiping his eyes with his sleeve.

"Sayaka....I love you." Uramichi thought, thinking back to his late fiancee. "I miss you....I miss you so god damn much." Uramichi muttered, laying his head onto Y/N's bedside and crying into it. Why did Sayaka have to leave him? Was that punishment from god? Did god punish him because of something he did?

Whatever he did, Uramichi regretted it. He wished he would go back in time and change something from his past, so that Sayaka could still be with him and help him raise Y/N. But Uramichi knew that it was impossble, and the only thing he could do was live on. Live on and raise his daughter, who Sayaka wanted to see more than anyone in the world.

It was 7:30 am when Uramichi's iPhone started to ring, signaling that someone was calling him. Uramichi groaned when he heard the ringing, shutting his eyes tightly as he tried to ignore it. The ringing soon stopped, Uramichi sighing in relief in his head as he tried to go back to sleep.....only for the ringing to start right back up again. Uramichi angrily woke up, grabbing his iPhone that was laying on the drawer that was next to the bed and looked at the contact. His eyes than widen, realizing that the person calling him was Mrs. Yamada.

Uramichi pressed the green answer button, sitting up as he put the iPhone up to his ear. "Hello?" "It's been a while since Y/N has seen her grandparents...." Uramichi tensed up when he heard that, knowing what Mrs. Yamada meant by that. Despite having a great dislike towards his in laws, he didn't want to disrespect the wishes of his late fiancée and not have them be involved in Y/N's life. Besides, his in laws were given the right to take legal action against him if he didn't have Y/N see them for a certain amount of time, which made Uramichi reluctantly have Y/N visit them once a month, twice if he was rare good terms with them.

Uramichi's in laws never cared for him, only giving him the time of day due to Y/N. Y/N was the only thing left of their little girl, which was the main reason why they wanted custody of her. As Uramichi gave out a sigh, he told Mrs. Yamada "I've been dealing with some stuff recently, so I didn't have time to schedule a date with them yet.". "Well, it turns out that they already have." "Wait....they did?" Mrs. Yamada chuckled from across the line, telling Uramichi "They want to have dinner with you and Y/N today.".

"They want to have dinner....with me?" Uramichi asked, not expecting this from his in laws. They always wanted to spend time with Y/N and never him, which Uramichi didn't mind as he shared that sentiment. So, the fact that they were inviting both him and Y/N over caused him to be confused by their actions. "We told them about you now attending therapy, and they wanted to better their relationship with you since in their words...." Mrs. Yamada sighed from across the other line as remembered what the couple said to her, " "You're actually trying to be a better parent now.".

Uramichi mentally scoffed when he heard that, Mrs. Yamada telling him "It's up to you whether or not you want to go, but I advise that you attend.". Mrs. Yamada than hung up, Uramichi looking down at his phone with a frown on his face. He than sighed, putting his phone back on top of the drawer and getting out of bed. After he left his bedroom, he went into Y/N's and saw that she was still asleep. Uramichi smiled, softly shaking Y/N to wake her up,

Y/N whined, covering her face with her blanket. This made Uramichi chuckle, slightly pulling down Y/N's blanket from her face so that he could give her a kiss on her forehead. "Y/N, it's time to get up~" Uramichi sweetly said, Y/N opening her eyes and looking up at her father smiling down at her. Y/N sat up, raising her arms towards Uramichi as she told him "Up! I want Up!". Uramichi nodded, picking Y/N up and holding her close.

Y/N than gave her father a kiss on his cheek, Uramichi smiling and blushing slightly as he lef the bedroom and went to the kitchen. "I had a dream, daddy." Y/N said, Uramichi looking down at her as he put her down on on of the chairs at the kitchen table. "What was the dream about?" "We had a picnic together with Usao and Kumao!" Uramichi chuckled, Y/N smiling brightly as she thought back to her dream. However, Uramichi remembered his conversation with Mrs. Yamada, wondering if he should tell Y/N the news right now or later.

Uramichi than sighed, making up his mind. Uramichi kneeled in front of Y/N, telling her "Y/N....Grandma and Grandpa wants to have dinner with us today.". Y/N's eyes started to sparkle, asking her father "Really!". Uramichi nodded, Y/N wrapping her arms around her father's neck and hugging onto him tightly. "Can we go to there house?" Y/N asked, Uramichi laughing and nodding as he hugged Y/N back. Y/N squealed in excitement, Uramichi smiling as he felt her cuddle into his chest.

Though, Uramichi couldn't help but frown, thinking about the fact that there was some other motive as to why his in laws invited them over......

                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Uramichi rang the doorbell to the large house he was standing in front of, holding Y/N in his arms as he waited for the door to open. After a few minutes of waiting, Uramichi heard footsteps approach the door, the door soon opening to reveal a handsome man wearing a suit. Despite having the appearance of someone who was in his 40s, he was actually in his early 60s. The man grimaced when he saw Uramichi, noticing that Uramichi....wasn't exactly dressed in formal attire.

(This is what he looks like)

However, once he saw Y/N, a smile made it's way onto his face. "Grandpa!" Y/N exclaimed, Uramichi putting her down so that she could hug her Grandfather. Y/N's grandfather kneeled down, opening his arms out so that Y/N could embrace him. "How's my little princess doing?" Y/N's grandfather asked, giving Y/N a small kiss on her temple as she giggled. "I'm here too, you know..." Uramichi said, quite irked that his father in law was simply ignoring him.

"Oh yeah, you are...." Y/N's grandfather said, giving Uramichi a blank look as he picked Y/N up and went back into his house. Uramichi clicked his tongue, following his father in law inside as he called out to his wife "Mayuko, our little princess is here!". Mayuko, Y/N's grandmother and Uramichi's mother in law, soon went down the stairs, a big smile on her face as she exclaimed to Y/N  "There's my sweet angel!". Y/N laughed as Mayuko pressed a kiss to her cheek, smiling as her husband put Y/N down.

Mayuko was wearing formal attire just like her husband, with light hints of makecup decorated on her face. She was also in her early 60s, but had the appearance of someone in her late 40s instead. As Y/N hugged Mayuko's legs, Mayuko looked up when she heard Uramichi clear his throat, an annoyed expression now on her face that was targeted to her son in law.

(This is what she looks like)

"Where should I put my jacket and beanie at?" Uramichi asked, Mayuko pointing to a rack hanger that was at the entrance door. Uramichi nodded in thanks, Mayuko not saying anything as he placed his beanie and jacket on the rack hanger. "Did we really have to invite him?" Mayuko whispered to her husband, her husband nodding and whispering back "We can't push him away forever.". "Daisuke, he doesn't care for us!"  "That doesn't mean we should act like he's not apart of our family." Daisuke looked at his wife, Mayuko looking down as he told her "He's the man who our daughter fell in love with."

Mayuko nodded, feeling Y/N pull on the hem of her dress and looked down to see Y/N with her big doe eyes asking her "When are we going to eat?". Mayuko and Daisuke chuckled, Mayuko telling her "Right now, darling.". Y/N clapped her hands, following her grandparents as they went to the dining room. Uramichi headed to the dining table himself, having just heard the conversation his in laws had about him but caring less for it.

When Uramichi entered the dining room, he saw that Daisuke, Mayuko, and Y/N were already seated. "Daddy, sit next to me!" Y/N called out, pointing to the open chair that was next to her. Uramichi nodded, sitting down at the chair as Mayuko gave a forceful smile to him. "Please eat as much as you want!" She said, Uramichi knowing that she was forcing out this nice persona to him. Uramichi still nodded in thanks to her, asking Y/N "What do you want on your plate?". As Y/N pointed to all the food she wanted, Mayuko cringed as she saw Uramichi put it all on the small plate.

"He's fattening her up...." Mayuko thought, about to say something until Daisuke put his hand on her leg under the table. Mayuko looked at him, seeing her husband shake his head. Mayuko sighed, putting her own food on her plate as she watched Y/N begin to eat her food. "Uramichi, we want to say that we're proud of you..." Daisuke said to his son in law, wanting to break the silence. Uramichi looked at Daisuke, having put a few sushi and ramen onto his plate. "I know it's been hard without Sayaka, and we're also still mourning for her." Daisuke chuckled as he thought back to his daughter, remembering just how happy she was to introduce Uramichi to him and Mayuko, "But she wouldn't want us to be sad forever, especially when this little one is in our lives."

Y/N smiled when Daisuke looked over at her, stuffing her face with some onigiri she had. Uramichi smiled and nodded, looking down as he said "I know.....". Daisuke nodded, taking a sip from his wine as silence came between them once again. Y/N felt the tension between her father and grandparents, wondering why they weren't speaking to each other. Y/N decided to say something, telling her grandparents "Daddy took me to his job!". Daisuke smiled, Mayuko only raising her eyebrow as she said "Job? you mean that kids show he works on that airs at 8:00?".

"What was it called?" "Together with Maman" Mayuko looked at Uramichi, seeing that he was eating his rice without looking at her. "It's called Together with Maman." Uramichi said again, his eyes not leaving from his food. Mayuko nodded, giving Uramichi a quick glare as she said "Yeah, that show.". Daisuke sighed, looking at Y/N as he asked her "What was it like?". "I saw Usao and Kumao's heads decapitated...." "WHAT?" Daisuke and Mayuko looked at Uramichi, Uramichi looking at Y/N with wide eyes when he realizied what she said.

"Well...you see?" Uramichi was about to explain, but Y/N quickly said "But they got better.". Mayuko and Daisuke than sighed, Uramichi as well as Y/N began to eat her taiyaki. "But...you had fun, right?" Mayuko asked, Y/N looking down at her feet and shaking her head. "No....a kid said that daddy couldn't do anything." Uramichi noticed that Y/N was about to talk that incident, quickly trying to tell her that she was saying too much but it was too late.

"So, I beat her up and daddy got mad at me for that." Y/N said, Mayuko spitting her wine back into her glass when she heard that. "Uramichi!" Mayuko shouted, Uramichi growing nervous and now knowing what he should say.  Mayuko sighed, leaning back into her chair and rubbing her temple. "Are you angry at me?" "No darling, just at your stupid father." Uramichi tired to continue eating, wanting him and YN to finish their food so that they could leave.

Mayuko decided that she should tell Y/N her question, clearing her throat to get Y/N's attention. "Y/N....you love grandma and grandpa, right?" Mayuko asked, Y/N nodding which made Mayuko smile. "So.....do you want to stay with us?" Mayuko asked, Uramichi's eyes widening and looking over at his mother in law. Daisuke looked at Mayuko, asking her "What are you-" Mayuko gave her husband a glare, Daisuke shutting up and nodding. He planned this too, and so, he should let it play out and see what Y/N's answer would be.

"What do you mean?" "Our house is really big, so there's a lot of space for you to run around and play in!" Mayuko brightly smiled at Y/N, Uramichi now having a glare on his face as he now knew what was going on. "So, this is why you invited me over...." Uramichi thought, Mayuko saying to Y/N "It's better than that small apartment that you live with your father.". Mayuko and Daisuke waited for Y/N's answer, Y/N nervously looking at them and going quiet. "You guys are disgusting...." Uramichi spoke up, Mayuko and Daisuke looking at him when he did. "What did you just say?" "You only wanted to have dinner with us so that you can turn Y/N against me." Uramichi stood up from his seat at the table, going over to Y/N and picking her up.

"Where are we going, daddy?" Y/N asked, Uramichi holding her close as he began to leave the dining room. "We're leaving...." "But we didn't have dessert yet!" Uramichi only ignored Y/N, putting his beanie and jacket on and about to open the door to leave. "Uramichi, think about it!" Mayuko yelled, going over to him and grabbing his arm, "You're not fit to raise her, you could barely do so when she was born!". Uramichi just glared at Mayuko, pulling his arm away from her hand and leaving the house.

Mayuko sighed, slamming the door shut as Daisuke went over to her. "I fucking hate him...." Mayuko mumbled, balling her fist up as she thought back to the glare Uramichi gave her.

                                              ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"That bitch trying to think she can take my child away that easily...." Uramichi thought, waiting at the bus stop while trying to light his cigarette. Y/N was behind him, sitting on the bench while nervously twiddling her fingers. As Uramichi finished his cigarette, he dropped it and stamped his foot on it, Y/N getting up from the bench and grabbing onto his hand.

Uramichi looked over at her, seeing that she was frowning and tears were theartening to fall out of her eyes. Uramichi sighed, kneeling down to Y/N's height and grabbed both of her hands, telling her "Daddy got angry at grandma.....so that's why we left.". "Why?" Uramichi didn't want to answer that, unless he wanted to reveal to Y/N that her grandparents wanted to take her away from him.

"Because she....she doesn't like daddy." "But...I like you." Uramichi chuckled, hugging Y/N and rubbing her back. "It's complicated...." Uramichi muttered, kissing Y/N on her forehead as he stood up. Y/N's stomach than grumbled, Uramichi sighing and looking down at Y/N with a small smile as he asked her "Want to eat some ice cream when we get home?". Y/N nodded, the bus arivving at the stop the two were at.

As Y/N and Uramichi entered the bus, Uramichi sat at one of the free seats on the bus, Y/N sitting down next to him and laying her head on his head. The bus started to head off, Uramichi looking out the window at the cars and buildings that the bus passed. Uramichi soon looked back at Y/N, seeing that she was now asleep. Uramichi chuckled, giving Y/N a small kiss as he whispered "Good night....".

Uramichi than leaned back against his seat, thinking to himself "I can't lose her.....

"Now there's going to be some rules before you go on "Together with Maman" with Daddy today." Uramichi told Y/N, putting her down in front of the "MHK" studio and kneeling down to her height. "Firstly, You cannot address me as Daddy but as Onii-san." Uramichi said, Y/N crinkling her nose when she heard that. "But I only know you as Daddy!" Y/N protested, Uramichi sighing and giving his daughter a small head pat.

Uramichi's expression softened, telling Y/N "I know you do, but it will make the other kids feel left out if you're the only one who calls me that.". Y/N started to frown and looked down to her feet, Uramichi beginning to tell her "Secondly, you need to follow what me, Iketeru Onii-san, and Utano Onee-san say.". "Finally.....just have fun." Uramichi smiled at Y/N, raising her chin up to make her look at him.

Y/N sadly smiled, nodding to show her father that she understood as Uramichi took her small hand that was extended out for him and lead her inside the studio. "uh......aren't you apart of the cast for "Together with Maman"?" the receptionist at the desk said to Uramichi, who had picked up Y/N and was holding her in his arms. "My daughter here is with the group of kids for today's filming....." Uramichi told the receptionist nervously, this being the first time he was in the area of the studio where visitors were allowed.

"Oh....let me check." The receptionist said, skimming through her fies and finding Y/N's name being registered as being apart of the filming for the "Together with Maman" episode. "Take her to the waiting room and drop her off there." The receptionist told Uramichi, pointing to the hallway that was next to her. Uramichi thanked her for the information, The receptionist rolling her eyes andtelling him "Next time, make sure her mother is the one dropping her off."

Uramichi froze when the receptionist said that, slowly nodding and carrying Y/N to the waiting room. "But Daddy, I don't have a mommy...." Y/N said Uramichi, Uramichi only ignoring her and putting her down on a bench when they arrived in the waiting room. "I'll see you soon." Uramichi told Y/N, giving her a small kiss and walking out of the waiting room and to the staff only section of the studio.

Y/N silently swung her legs as she looked around the waiting room, seeing kids her age and younger playing around or talking to each other. Y/N was nervous, not knowing if she should talk to any of the kids. "Are you new here?" a girl with pigtails asked, going over to Y/N and sitting down next to her on the bench. Y/N looked at the girl, nodding her head as the girl smiled and said "Don't worry, this place is super fun!".

"Do you watch "Together with Maman"?" The girl asked, Y/N smiling a bit and nodding again. The girl giggled, telling Y/N "I watch it all the time with my mama!". Y/N than dropped her smile, the girl noticing and tilting her head in confusion as she asked "What's wrong?". "I don't watch it with my mama...." "Why? Is she busy?" Y/N was about to say the reason, but the door to the set of "Together with Maman" soon opened, a voice saying from inside the set "Kids are coming in!"

As the kids soon entered the set with excited smiles on their face, Y/N watched as the girl who was talking to her quickly  get off the bench and go into the set room. Y/N followed, the first thing she noticed while in was cameras and lights that were around the set. This made Y/N grow nervous, but eventually smiled in happiness when she saw her father standing in front of all the kids.

"Daddy!" Y/N whispered shouted, waving her hand at Uramichi to get his attention. Uramichi noticed this,  softly smiling at Y/N and waving his hand back at her. Y/N beamed with excitement, but found herself at the back of the group of children. "I can't see Daddy...." Y/N thought, jumping up and down in hopes of seeing what her father was doing. The cameras than started to film, signaling that the show was about to start as Uramichi said to them "Alright kids, I'm Uramichi Onii-san!".

Uramichi looked at the group of kids, greeting them as they all greeted him back. "Wow, everyone joining me today is so energetic!" Uramichi said while smiling, not seeing that his daughter was frowning as she couldn't see him, "So much that I wish I could suck the energy out of you! How wonderful!". "Let's play together alot today!" "Okay!" The loud yelling of all the kids (minus Y/N) began to quickly injure Uramichi's eardrums, Uramichi still putting on a smile through the pain.

"Rather...This is the case where I'm the one whose energy is getting sucked out." Uramichi said, quickly reverting back to his happy go lucky self as said "But the more energy the better, so this is good, kids!". "Even my false cheerfulness is better than nothing!" a kid in the front began to laugh while clapping his hands, Uramichi looking at him while smiling and telling him "This isn't where you laugh.".  Uramichi than looked back to the crowd of children and said to them "You're fine today, but you'll surely have a day where you can't help but feel less energetic."

"And, on such a day, you'll forced to be "positive." Uramichi dropped his happy voice when he said the last part, continuing to say to the children "The word sounds nice, but "escapism" and "dereliction of duty" are wrapped in it.". Uramichi than looked at the children with a creepy smile, telling them "Don't be confused with things like that.". The kids only watched this with fear, not knowing what Uramichi meant by this.

Y/N was scared the most, never seeing her father act like this outside or in the show. Y/N felt tears form in her eyes, thinking to herself "Is Daddy okay?". Uramichi took notice of this, his eyes widening when he realized what he was saying and doing. Uramichi quickly cleared his throat, clapping his hands together with his smile back on his face as he told the kids "Okay, It's time for the fun ABC exercise!"

                                                  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ABC exercise went off without a hitch, Uramichi knowing this by seeing how much fun Y/N was having by watching her while she and the rest of the kids did it with him. After calling out "Usao" and "Kumao", Y/N instantly ran over to them and hugged the two mascots. "You're okay!" Y/N exclaimed, "Usao" and "Kumao" remembering what happened yesterday when the little girl saw their "decapitated heads".

"Usao" and "Kumao" both looked at Uramichi with nervous looks under their masks, knowing that Uramichi had taken a mental note to beat them up after filming over the situation with their heads. Thankfully, the session with "Usao" and "Kumao" went smoothly, Y/N not mentioning what happened to the rest of the kids. "Thank you for saving our asses, Y/N." "Usao"  thought during the entire session, feeling Uramichi's glare on him the entire time he played with the kids.

However, "Fun Drawing time" soon came around....

"Uamichi Onii-san!" "Hm? What's the matter?" The girl who Y/N was talking to earlier looked up at Uramichi with sparkling eyes, asking him "Is it true that you're good at drawing?". Uramichi only looked at the girl with a smile, simply telling her "No, that's a lie." The girl ignored him, saying "Usao told me....that you can do anything!". Uramichi glanced over at "Usao", "Usao" growing small in fear as he noticed that Uramichi's aura was now an angry one.

"Usao" tried to hide behind "Kumao", but "Kumao" left hi and went to Uramichi's side. "Usao said that you can draw Kirapure!" The girl said again, Uramichi whispering to "Kumao" "Did he really say that?". "Kumao" nodded his head, "Usao" yelling at him "Kumatani!" as he was making the situation worse.  "Kumao" only playfully waved his paw at the rabbit, telling him 'I'm Kumao, Kuma!".  as the girl told Uramichi "Draw Kirapure now!".

"What's that?" Uramichi asked "Kumao", Kumao explaining to him that it was an anime show aimed for girls. Uramichi didn't know that show, since the only thing Y/N watched was "Together with Maman", tokusatsu, and horror movies. Uramichi than smiled at the girl, kneeling to her height as he told her "To tell you the truth, I don't know that Kira-something at all.". The girl only ignored him, saying "I like Kirapure pink the best!".

Two other girls went over to Uramichi, one of them saying "Draw Kirapure blue for me!". Uramichi watched as the three girls looked at him with sparkiling eyes, waiting for him to start the drawing in anticipation. Soon, Uramichi looked over to see that "Usao" had brought the drawing whiteboard over, quickly leaving and hiding behind the set as he saw Uramichi's eyes on him. Uramichi than sighed, telling the girls "Alright, I'll do my best and draw them, Okay?"

Uramichi uncapped the marker and began to draw on the whiteboard, the girls watching in anticipation as he did. Y/N noticed this as well, going over to the girls and waiting to see what her father's drawing as like. He than finished, showing the drawing to the four with a nervous smile on his face. The drawing was of two chubby schoolgirls with wands and gloomy looks on their faces, something that  wasn't Kirapure at all.

Y/N didn't mind this, only clapping and smiling when she saw the drawing. Uramichi smiled back at his daughter, happy that she at least was happy for it. Though, the three girls who asked for it weren't, looking at the drawing in fear and crying out "They don't look like that at all!". As the girls started to throw insults towards drawing. Y/N stopped clapping and saw that her father was now frowning. "So, it's true that you can't do anything at all..." one of the girls said, quickly angering Y/N.

Than....to everyone's suprise....Y/N tackled the girl and began to pull on her hair while pinning her to the floor.

"OWWW!" the girl screamed, Y/N undoing her pigtails and looking at her with a mean face. Allthe kids saw this, some of them watching in shock while others cried at the fight that was taken place. Uramichi noticed what was going on, seeing multiple camera man stopping what they were doing and running over to help comfort the kids. "Uramichi, get your daughter!" Derekida yelled at him, Uramichi looking over to see what Y/N was doing.

Uramichi's eyes widened, running over to Y/N and trying to pull her off the girl. "Y/N, stop it now!" Urmaichi said, Y/N's grip on the girl's hair only going tighter. Uramichi managed to pull Y/N off the girl, one of the assitant directors helping the little girl up as she started to cry. Urmaichi held Y/N close as she started to squirm in his arms, yelling at him "Let me go! she was saying mean things about you!'. Uramichi glared at his daughter, yelling back at her "That doesn't mean you should have attacked her!".

While the cast and crew tried to calm down the kids, a stage light fell from the ceiling and landed on the floor. This made all the lights go out in the room, causing every kid  to scream. As Y/N sobbed into her father's chest, he looked around to find the door and quickly left the set room. Uramichi soon ran into the bathroom, ignoring the questions that were being asked to him as more people ran into the set room to see what was going on. As Uramichi shut the door behind him, he put Y/N down and leaned aganist the door, giving out a big sigh and trying to calm down.

"I'm sorry, Daddy!" Y/N cried out, knowing that her father was going to punish her right than and there, "I was just trying to defend you!". Y/N began to wipe her eyes with the sleeves of her shirt, looking down as she sobbed. Than....Y/N heard sobbing come from Uramichi. Y/n looked up, seeing that Uramichi was sliding down the door with tears of his own falling down.

"Daddy?" "I'm stupid....I'm so stupid." Uramichi curled up, crying as he covered his face in his legs. Y/N sniffed, slowly approaching him and tapping in his leg. Uramichi looked up at his daughter, his eyes red and puffy as Y/N muttered "I ruined everything...didn't I?". Uramichi shook his head, embracing  Y/N and holding her close as he said to her "No, you didn't....I did.". "This was my fault....I'm such a fucking idiot." Y/N hugged her father back, nuzzling her face into his neck as he continued to cry.

"I want to go home..." Y/N whispered, Uramichi looking at her and pressing a kiss to her forehead. "We're going home right now..." Uramichi said, picking Y/N up and holding her close as he left the bathroom.

                                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"And that's what happened...." Uramichi said, Kokoro having been silent the entire time she heard his story. Uramichi had just finished telling Kokoro about the incident that happened at his job two days ago, needing to get it off his chest. Kokoro frowned as she watched Uramichi look down to the floor, biting his lip as he thought about all the things he could have done diffrently to prevent the incident from happening.

"Did you get fired?" "No.....they gave me two consecutive days off." "Oh....at least you didn't face too much trouble." Uramichi looked back up at Kokoro, giving her an annoyed looked as he told her "If you don't count the scolding my boss gave me.....". The smile that Kokoro had soon dropped, just thinking about how loud Uramichi's boss must have yelled at him making her cringe. Uramichi leaned back on the couch, looking up to the ceiling as he muttered "I really shouldn't call myself a father....".

"Uramichi, don't say that!" Kokoro said, Uramichi closing his eyes as Kokoro placed her clipboard down on her lap. "This is just one incident! You can't give up just now!" "This was something I could have prevented, yet I didn't......." Kokoro angrily stood up, pulling Uramichi off the couch and slapping him across his face. "Hey, what the hell was that for?" Uramichi asked rubbing his cheek where Kokoro's hand made imapct.

Kokoro sighed, sitting back down on her chair as she told Uramichi "You're too self deprecating....". "Self deprecating?" "You kick yourself down all time time whenever you make a mistake, even if that mistake isn't that big." Uramichi sat back down on his couch, looking at Kokoro with wide eyes as she gave him a soft look. "It's better if I just show you..." Kokoro said, taking out a small piece of paper and a marker and handing it to Uramichi.

"I want you to draw a man and woman, a house, and a animal." Kokoro said, Uramichi rasing an eyebrow at her but didn't question anything. He did as he was told, showing Kokoro the drawing when he was finished. Kokoro looked at the drawing, telling Uramichi "This is a test that shows what your personality is.". Kokoro placed the drawing down on the table, both her and Uramichi taking a good look at it. The drawing was of a chubby woman and man with gloomy faces apart from each other, a small house, and a "dog".

"If you drew the man and woman apart from one another, that means you have relationship problems." Kokoro said, Uramichi wanting to say something but keeping his mouth shut. "If you drew the house small, than you don't put effort into anything, and if someone can't identify the animal you draw, you have personality problems." Kokoro noticed that Uramichi now had a frown on his face, Kokoro sighing and telling him "Do you see what I'm trying to ay now?"

Uramichi nodded, Kokoro sadly smiling at him and saying "Good....Because I need you to stop doing that.". "How?" Uramichi asked, Kokoro just softly chuckling and say "Look at the bright side of things." Uramichu looked at her, a smile on Kokoro's face as she told him "Not every mistake is all doom and gloom....sometimes, they teach us new things that we never realized about ourselves."  

                                           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Uramichi came back to his apartment after his session with Kokoro, he saw that Y/N wasn't waiting for him this time. After removing his shoes and tossing his jacket and beanie to the side, he went over to Y/N's bedroom and knocked on her door. "Can I come in?" Uramichi asked, hoping that his daughter wasn't asleep. He soon heard small footsteps go over to the door, the door opening to reveal Y/N in her pajamas looking down to the floor.

"Baby...." Uramichi said, kneeling down to Y/N's height as he gave her a sad smile, "Want to talk?". Y/N nodded, going back to her bed and sitting on it, Uramichi following and sitting right next to her. Silence came over the two, Uramichi not knowing on how he should start the conversation. "I really like your drawings...." Y/N said, Uramichi looking over at her with wide eyes. "You...like them?" "Yeah, and when that girl said that you couldn't do anything.....I got really mad." Uramichi held Y/N close to him when he saw that tears were about to fall down her face, shushing her as she started to sniffle.

"I still have that drawing you made of that birdy." Y/N said, Uramichi knowing what she was talking about. Uramichi remembered that on Y/N's 2nd birthday, he made her a drawing of a white bird that wore a blue buttoned up shirt that held a baguette. The bird was a recurring figuere in Uramichi's dreams and he thought that it would be nice to turn it into something that Y/N could play with.

He didn't know that Y/N actually liked it.....

Y/N cuddled into her father's chest, mumbling "Do you hate me?". Uramichi shook his head, lifting Y/N's head up as he said to her "Of course not!". Uramichi than gave Y/N a small smile, saying to her "In fact, I love you....out of everything in this world, you mean the most to me.". Y/N smiled, wrapping her arms around her father's neck as he picked her up.

Uramichi softly knocked on the door to his therapist's office, hoping that it would get their attention. "Come in." A lady's voice said, making Uramichi blush when he heard it. "They're a girl?' Uramichi thought, stepping foot into the office. Sitting on a chair that was in front of a couch was a petit woman who was writing on a clipboard, the woman looking behind her to see Uramichi and instantly standing up.

(This is what she looks like)

"Uramichi Omota, if I'm not mistaken?" the therapist asked, Uramichi quickly nodding and shaking the blush away from his face. The therapist than wrote something on her clipboard and sat back down on her chair, motioning for Uramichi to sit on the couch. "Please take a seat." The therapist told him, Uramichi sitting don on the couch as she did. Uramichi than soon felt something under on of his feet, looking down to see a puppy dog plush that was laying on th floor.

The therapist noticed this, grabbing the puppy plush and telling Uramichi "Sorry, this was used to help my previous client.". Uramichi raised an eyebrow at this, watching as the therapist placed the puppy dog plush in a basket and look back at him as if nothing happened. ".....He was a young boy who was sexually assualted." The therapist explained, Uramichi taken back by this. "Oh.....I didn't know." "Please don't be sorry, I don't work with a lot of kids anyways."

Uramichi chuckled a bit when he heard this, telling the therapist "Well I do....". The therapist softly smiled at Uramichi, extending her hand out for a handshake  and saying "Kokoro Kotobuki.". Uramichi smiled back and accepted the handshake as Kokoro said to him "I hope I can be some help to you.". Uramichi nodded, releasing his hand from Kokoro's and seeing her look back down at her clipboard. "From what you told us, you've been battling depression for a while now." Kokoro said, Uramichi blushing in embarassment when he heard that and looking down to the floor.

Kokoro noticed this, waving her hand at Uramichi and reassured him "Please don't be embarassed, as being here is the first step in the right direction!". Kokoro than looked at him with a soft expression on her face, saying "You're doing this for your daughter....right?". Uramichi looked at Kokoro with wide eyes, not knowing that she was aware of his situation. "How did you-" "Child Protective Services works close with us, so we sometimes have clients that are recommended by them."

Uramichi felt his face go hot, Kokoro realizing that she hit a sensitive topic with him. "....Is you daughter aware of your depression?" Kokoro asked, Uramichi going silent for a bit before he slowly shook his head. Kokoro frowned a bit, putting down her clipboard as she asked Uramichi again "Are you sure that this is the best option for her?". Uramichi knew what Kokoro meant by that, looking at her as he said "She's 6! I can't let her worry about me, especially with something so serious..." Uramichi began to trail off as he began to think about Y/N, remembering that she was also unaware of her possibly being taken away from her father.

"I also don't want her to be scared..." Uramichi muttered, looking back down to the floor as Kokoro's expression began to soften. "I don't want her to be scared that.....she might not be with her father anymore...." Uramichi whispered, feeling tears form in his eyes. Kokoro handed Uramichi some tissues, Uramichi thanking her for them as she asked him "So.....You're doing this for her own good?" 

Uramichi looked up at Kokoro, nodding while she pushed up her glasses and sighed. "Uramichi.....This isn't how you do it." "What do you mean?" "Making her be innocent of everything is not helping her." Uramichi frowned, Kokoro grabbing his hand as she told him "Your inlaws......They're also doing this because they love her and they want the best for her.....and they think that you being her guardian isn't the best for her." Uramichi was about to let the tears fall until he heard Kokoro soon say  "So show them that it is....". Uramichi looked at Kokoro, notcing that she now had a smile on her face.

"Please......do what's best for your daughter."

                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~              

It was late at night when Uramichi arrived back at his apartment. As Uramichi closed the front door behind him, he heard the sounds of a woman screaming and maniacal laughter coming from the TV in the living room. Uramichi looked up, chuckling when he saw Y/N sitting on the couch and watching the TV with a big smile on her face. "I'm home, Y/N~" Uramichi said, Y/N looking over at him and smiling brightly. "Daddy!" Y/N exclaimed, Uramichi smiling softly and going over to his daughter, sitting beside her.

"Watching horror movies again?" "Yeah!" Uramichi watched as Y/N looked back at the TV, seeing her swing her legs as she giggled at a gory death scene. Y/N was never one to be scared for horror movies, finding them more funny than scary .Uramichi remembered one time when Y/N was 3 years old when he accidently forgot to turn off the horror movie he was watching when she came into the room he was in, but instead of being frightened which was how Uramichi expected her to react, she only giggled and continued to watch.

Soon, after a few minutes of watching the horror movie, Y/N's eyes began to become droopy, Y/N than yawned, Uramichi looking over at her and smiling softly. "Tired?' Uramichi asked, Y/N shaking her head and rubbing her eyes as she yawned again. Uramichi chuckled, grabbiing the remote and turning the TV off. "Hey!" Y/N said tiredly, Uramichi snorting a bit as he got up from the couch and picked Y/N up. Y/N laid her head on her father's shoulder, Uramichi holding her close and smiling as he went to her bedroom.

As Uramichi placed Y/N onto her bed, he cupped her face and pressed a kiss on her forehead. "I love you." Uramichi told his daughter, Y/N tiredly smiling and telling him back "I love you too, Daddy.", Uramichi softly smiled, watching as Y/N closed her eyes and went to sleep. Uramichi than left the bedroom, but not before looking back at Y/N and smiling at the slumbering girl one more time. Uramichi soon went into the kitchen, taking out a beer can from the fridge and heading back into the living room.

Uramichi than sat down on the couch, grabbing the remote and turning the TV  back on. When the TV came on, he noticed that "Together with Maman" was currently on, specifcally at the part where his coworkers Utano and Iketeru would a sing a song to the audience. 

Soon, Uramichi's mind flashed back to what Kokoro told him at his session with her......and a idea came to fruition.

       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Y/N happily skipped next to her father, her hand in his as she said to him "I'm going to have so much fun with Usao and Kumao!" Uramichi nodded, smiling as he tightly gripped onto Y/N's hand while she looked up at him and asked "Will Utano Onee-san and Iketeru Onii-san be there too?". Uramichi looked down at Y/N with his smile still on his face, telling Y/N "Of course they will!". Y/N beamed with excitement, jumping up and down when she heard that.

The two soon began to approach a large gray building, the words "MHK" engraved into it. "Woah..." Y/N said in awe, looking at the building in wonder. The building was bigger than the apartment complex that she lived in, something which she never saw before in her life. Uramichi held back a laugh as he saw his daughter stare at the building, looking down at her and saying "This is where Daddy works at.". Y/N looked at her father with a big smile, Uramichi picking her up and heading inside the building.

"Good Morning!" A woman with blonde hair said to Uramichi, quickly noticing that YN was in his arms. "And Good Morning, sweetheart!" The woman said to Y/N, Y/N hiding her face in Uramichi's chest in fear. Uramichi chuckled, rubbing Y/N's back as he looked at the blonde haired woman. "May I ask who that lovely little girl is?" "My daughter." "Well, isn't she adorable?" Uramichi blushed as he thanked the woman for the compliment, looking down at Y/N and telling her "She just called you lovely, thank her for the compliment."

"Thank you..." Y/N whispered, taking a brief glance at the woman before hiding her face again in her father's chest. Uramichi waved goodbye to the woman, heading into the green room area of the building and opening the door to the room that said "Green Room For Uramichi Omota". As Uramichi stepped foot inside the green room, he put Y/N down and told her "This is where daddy goes and gets ready.". Y/N nodded, running over to the mirror in the green room and looking at it. 

"Do they put makeup on you?" Y/N asked, Uramichi snorting a bit and shaking his head. "Why would you ask?" "Idols always have people who put make up on them before a show!" Uramichi went over to Y/N, patting her head as he told her "Well, those are Idols.....I'm a Gymnast Onii-san for crying out loud.". Y/N looked up at her father and saw that he had....a rather creepy smile on his face as a dark aura surrounded him. "Daddy, are you okay?" Y/N asked, Uramichi quickly losing the creepy smile and giving Y/N a more sweeter one, the dark aura gone.

"I'm fine." Uramichi said, pulling a chair out from the table and taking out plain white pieces of paper and crayola crayons from his backpack. "How about you draw a picture for me while I get dressed for work?" Uramichi suggested, placing the paper and crayons on the table. Y/N quickly sat on the chair that was pulled out for her, beginning to draw on one of the paper with a pink crayon as Uramichi changed from his casual clothes to his signature light blue and white polo shirt and dark blue pants.

"Daddy, I'm finished!" Y/N exclamied, putting the brown crayon that she had down, Uramichi was about to look at the drawing, until one of "Together with Maman"'s producers entered the green room. "Uramichi Onii-san, Director Derekida wants-" The producer stopped when he saw Y/N, confused until he soon realized who she was to Uramichi. "I'll come back when you and your daughter are done..." The producer said, about to close the door but was stopped by Uramichi. "No, I'll go see him now." Uramichi said, about to leave the room but not before looking back at Y/N and telling her "Stay here until I get back."

Uramichi than left the green room with the producer, leaving an annoyed Y/N inside it. "Daddy didn't get to see my drawing...." Y/N muttered, laying her head on the table as she waited for her father to come back with a bored look on her face. Y/N got impatient real quick, getting u from her chair with the picture in hand and leaving the green room. "Daddy?" Y/N asked, looking around to see which direction her father and the producer went.

Y/N deicided to go right, not paying attention to her surroundings as she skipped down the hall. She was about to turn a corner, but she ended up bumping into someone and fell down on her behind. "Ow..." Y/N softly whispered, looking up to see who she bumped into. She soon realized that it was Tobikichi, standing next to him being Mitsuo. "Tobi!" Y/N exclaimed, hugging the blonde haired man's legs as she gave him a big smile. Tobikichi half heartedly smiled when he saw Y/N, but glanced over at Mitsuo and asked him "Why is she here?"

Mitsuo just shook his head, saying to him "Do I look like I know?". "Usao?..." Y/N said, Tobikichi and Mitsuo freezing when they heard the scared tone in her voice. Tobikichi and Mitsuo forgot that they were holding the heads of their suits......and Y/N didn't know that Usao and Kumao weren't real animals. Y/N felt tears form in her eyes as she looked at the "decapitated" heads of "Usao" and "Kumao", Tobikichi and Mitsuo staring at her with wide yes.

Y/N soon began to cry, taking "Usao"'s head away from Tobikichi and holding it close to her. "What did you do to them!?" YN cried out, her teardrops falling onto the fuzzy head. Tobikichi tried to explain to Y/N, but she only cried louder and ran away from them. "Usao!" Y/N sobbed, looking down at the rabbit's head and holding it even more close. However, she than dropped it when she saw  a red and pink hat with two silver stars adorned on it laying on the table. Y/N quickly reconigzed it, knowing that it was Utano Onee-san's hat.

Y/N grabbed the hat, putting it on and twirling around. "I'm like Utano Onee-san!" Y/N exclaimed, smiling as a certain man and woman started going to where she was. "Has anyone seen my hat?" Utano asked, Iketeru beside her as the two looked for the signature hat. "Oh, there it is!" Iketeru said, pointing to the hat.....and quickly noticing who was wearing it. Utano and Iketeru watched as Y/N twirled around with the hat on her head, nit knowing what they should say.

As Y/N finished twirling, she saw Utano and Iketeru staring at her. "Utano Onee-san! Iketeru Onii-san!" Y/N exclaimed, running over to them and jumping up and down. Utano and Iketeru quickly cleared their thoarts and bended down to Y/'s height, Utano asking her "Sweetheart, are you lost perhaps?". Y/N shook her head, telling Utano "Nope! I'm here with my daddy!". Utano and Iketeru only smiled at this, Iketeru asking Y/N "Where is your daddy, exactly?" 

"I don't know, that's why I'm looking for him!" Y/N said, sweatdrops appearing on Utano and Iketeru when they heard that. "Y/N!" Tobikichi called out, him and Mitsuo, who was wearing the Kumao head piece, going over to the little girl. Y/N only got scared, running away from Tobikchi and causing the hat she was wearing to drop onto the floor. Tobikichi grabbed the Usao head piece and put it on, calling out to Y/N "Hey look, It's me, hop!" as Utano put on her hat.

Soon, the four found themselves chasing Y/N around the building, hoping to catch her before filming started. They eventually managed to catch up to her, Y/N having tripped and scraped her knee in front of the studio room. "Y/N, are you okay, hop?" "Usao" asked, Y/N shaking her head at him and saying "I want my daddy...". Than, in a knick of time, Uramichi came out from the studio, walking into the situation that was currently taking place before him.

"Y/N!" Uramichi called out, going over to her and kneeling down to her height. "Daddy!" Y/N cried out, Uramichi picking her up and holding her close. "Wait....Daddy?" Utano asked, her and Iketeru looking at Uramichi in confusion. Uramichi looked at the two while patting Y/N's back, sighing and telling them "Yeah.....I'm her father.". Utano and Iketeru went into shock, not actaully expecting Uramchi to confirm that he was Y/N's father. Utano quickly got angry inside, mentatlly saying inside her head to Uramichi "How dare you become a parent before me!".

Utano and Iketeru than looked at Tobikichi and Mitsuo, who had taken off their head pieces and were looking at the two with nervous expressions. "You guys knew....and didn't tell us?" Iketeru asked, Tobikichi quickly trying to explain why they haven't told them sooner. While that was happening, Uramichi placed Y/N on top of a table and kissed her forehead. "What did I say about staying inside?" "I'm sorry....I just wanted to show you my picture." Y/N handed Uramichi the drawing, Uramichi sighing and taking a look at it.

Uramichi quickly blushed when he saw what it was, seeing that it was a drawing of him, Y/N, Usao, and Kumao all smiling. "Do you like it?" Y/N asked, looking down to her feet as Uramichi softly smiled at her and nodded. "But thatd doesn't stop the fact that you're in big trouble!" Uramichi said, Y/N giggling as Uramichi chuckled and picked her up again, h her close. Director Derekida had seen everything, immedietly going over to the father and daugher and pointing at Y/N.

"You!" Derekida said, Uramichi and Y/N looking at him in confusion. "Who said that you can be so cute!" Derekida exclaimed, beginning to gush over her. 

"I must have her on the show!" ".....what?"

          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You want me to bring Y/N tomorrow?" Uramichi asked, Derekida nodding as he told him "She's an absolute angel, she needs to be on the show!". Uramichi only shook his head, disagreeing with this whole heartedly. "She can't, she still has school!" "Than take her out of school early." Uramichi felt himself get an irriatated tick, looking at Derekida with an annoyed expression, "Look at her, Uramichi!" Derekida said, turning Uramichi to face Y/N, who was playing with "Usao" and "Kumao" on the "Together with Maman" set.

"She loves it here!"Uramichi couldn't deny that, seeing just how happy Y/N was just by simply being around the iconic rabbit and bear mascot of "Together with Maman". Uramichi looked back at Derekida, who soon asked him "Are you seriously going to take that happiness away from her?". Uramichi went silent for a bit, not knowing how he should answer. He than remembered what his therapist told him, making him come to  decision.

'I'll pick up Y/N early and I'll bring her here before filiming starts." Uramichi told Derekida, Derekida grinning and shaking Uramichi's hand forecfully. "Good choice, my boy!" Derekida exclaimed, walkingaway from Uramichi and out of the set. "Looks like someone's asleep." Tobikichi said, his head piece of Usao now off as he handed a sleeping Y/N to Uramichi.

Uramichi smiled as his daughter sat on his lap, happily singing along to the tokusatsu theme song that was playing on the tv. "The road that everyone rushes through, run to the tomorrow that can only be seen by you!" Y/N sang, Uramichi bouncing her up and down with one of his legs. "Kamen Rider Hibiki is the best!" Y/N exclaimed, Uramichi nodding as Y/N laid on his chest when the theme song ended.

It was Sunday, meaning that there was no work for Uramichi and no school for Y/N. Whenever Uramichi had his off days, he would mainly spend it by hanging out with Y/N. The only time Uramichi found himself feeling truly happy was when he was around Y/N, and it was also the thing that helped him forget just how emotionally unstable he was. Uramichi believed that it was because of just how much happiness radiated from his daughter, and that some of it rubbed off on him when he spent time with her.

The two were currently watching TV, more accurately watching tokusatsu. While "Together with Maman" was Y/N's favorite show, tokusatsu series were a close second. Uramichi didn't necessarily care for tokusatsu, but would watch it casually with his daughter whenever she had it on the TV. To be honest, Uramichi would enjoy anything as long as his daughter did.

As Y/N watched the TV and clapped her hands while a fight scene was shown, Uramichi heard the doorbell to the front door of the apartment ring. "I'll be back." Uramichi told Y/N, putting her on the couch and pressing a small kiss on her forehead. Uramichi went to the door and looked through the peephole to see who was there, his eyes widening when he saw them.

It was Tobikichi, who held two shopping bags in his hand and was waiting for Uramichi to open the door. Uramichi quickly went back to Y/N, telling her "Okay, I think it's time for you to go to sleep!". "But it's not bedtime yet." "We're going somewhere early in the morning tomorrow, so you need to go to sleep early if you want to go." Uramichi lied, giving Y/N a big forceful smile in hopes she would believe him.

Thankfully, being a 6 years old, Y/N did and beamed with excitement . "Where are we going?" Y/N asked, trying to hold in her excitement and not jump up and down on the couch. Uramichi just winked at her, saying "It's a secret!". This just made Y/N even more excited, getting up from the couch but not before being told by her father to pick up her toys she was playing with earlier  from the floor.

After picking up all of her things with help from Uramichi and putting them in her room, Y/N crawled into bed and was kissed on her forehead by Uramichi. "Goodnight~" Uramichi sweetly said, Y/N saying goodnight back at him and closing her eyes so that she can enter dreamland. Uramichi softly smiled, gently closing the door to Y/N's bedroom and going to the front door.. Uramichi than opened the door, giving Tobikichi an annoyed look as he asked him "What do you want?". Tobikichi only smiled at Uramichi, showing him one of the shopping bags he was holding as he told him "These are Sake and Shochu sent to me by my parents, who run a liquor shop."

Tobikichi than showed the other bag, saying "I also got some Croissant Taiyaki at a stall in front of the pachinko place!". "I don't like sweet stuff...." Uramichi said, about to close the door on Tobikichi but the blonde haired man stopped him from doing so with his foot. "I like them, so...." Uramichi sighed, allowing Tobikichi into the apartment. "I can probably give the Taiyaki to Y/N for dessert tomorrow." Uramichi thought, Tobikichi thanking him for letting him in and taking his shoes off.

"Oh, Kumatani said he be here soon." Tobikichi said, making Uramichi click his tongue in annoyance. "Great...hopefully they won't make too much noise." Uramichi thought, knowing that Y/N wasn't the heaviest of sleepers. Tobikichi looked around Uramichi's small apartment, noticing the tokusatsu show that was being played on TV. "Didn't know you liked Toku?" Tobikichi said, Uramichi quickly grabbing the remote and changing the channel. "I don't." "C'mon, there's nothing wrong with liking some Toku!" Uramichi just ignored Tobikichi, Tobikichi reading the room and quickly switched subjects.

"Anyways, what'd you do today?" Tobikichi asked, Uramichi tensing up and looking back at Tobikichi. "Nothing really.....I just went to the gym." Uramichi lied, not wanting to reveal about what he really did, which was playing with his daughter. Tobikichi laughed when he heard that, exclaiming "I knew it!". This made Uramichi give Tobikichi one of his death glared, asking him "What did you just say?". Tobikichi froze when he saw Uramichi's glare, remembering that Uramichi hated being reminded that going to the gym was one of his only hobbies.

"I need to take a shit....." Uramichi said, leaving the living room and going to the bathroom. "Uhh....I set up everything than!" Tobikichi said, putting the shopping bags down. Tobikichi was about to go into the kitchen, but felt something hard hit his feet. "OW!" Tobikichi screamed, falling down and holding onto his toes that were now in pain. While Uramichi only smirked when he heard Tobikichi's scream, Y/N woke up and got up from her bed. Y/N quickly opened her door and went to the living room, asking Tobikichi "Daddy, are you okay-". Y/N stopped when she realized that she wasn't talking to her father, but instead some stranger.

Tobikichi laid on the floor in pain, mumbling "Godammit.... Uramichi you left your dumbbells on the floor.". Tobikichi than sat up, noticing Y/N from the corner of his eyes and looked over at her. "...." silence only came between the two, not knowing what the other should say to the other. Tobikichi decided to break the silence, saying "Hi..." to Y/N while waving at her a bit. Y/N only started to cry, sitting down and curling up as she started to sob out "Daddy!".

Uramichi heard the cries from in the bathroom, quickly washing his hands and running to Y/N's bedroom. When he opened it, he saw that she wasn't in there which made him quickly realize where she was. "Tobikichi, what the hell did you do!" Uramchi yelled, going to the living room and picking Y/N up. "I don't know, I just tripped on one of your dumbbells and this little girl came in and called me-" Tobikichi immediately put two and two together when he looked at Uramichi and Y/N, watching as Uramichi comfort the little girl and whisper reassurnaces to her.

"Shh, Shh, Don't worry I'm here." Uramichi whispered, Y/N's cries starting to die down and snuggling into her father's chest. Uramichi looked at Tobikichi, who stood up and was about to ask the obvious question but Uramichi already answered it before he could. "Yes.....this is my daughter." Uramichi said, blushing in embarrassment as Y/N nervously looked at Tobikichi. Uramichi looked down at Y/N, telling her "Y/N, this is my coworker and kouhai, Tobikichi.". "Kouhai?" "It means that I was his upperclassman when we were in school."  Y/N looked back at Tobikichi and saw that he was smiling at her.

Y/N his her face in Uramichi's chest, Uramichi chuckling a bit. "Why didn't you tell about this?" Tobikichi said, trying to process this new information, "Hell, why didn't you tell the others ago this.". Uramichi didn't say anything, putting Y/N down and telling her "Go back to bed...". Y/N was about to, but she saw the shopping bags and went over to them, looking inside to see the croissant Taiyaki. "Wow!" Y/N exclaimed, showing Her father the Taiyaki and asking him "Can I eat this before I go to sleep?" .

"No-" "Sure you can!" Uramichi looked over at Tobikichi, who went to Y/N and kneeled down to her height. "It's for you, after all!". Y/N smiled, laughing as she went to the kitchen table and began to eat the croissant Taiyaki. "It's soo good!" Y/N said with her mouth full of the Taiyaki. Uramichi glared at Tobikichi, saying to him "Last time I checked, I was her father." Uramichi said, Tobikichi nervously scratching his head and telling his senpai "She's a kid, I need to put on a good impression."

Uramichi gave Tobikichi an annoyed look, soon dropping it once hearing the doorbell ring again. "Ah, That's Kumatani!" Tobikichi said, about to go to the door but fell back down as he foot hit the dumbbell again. Y/N laughed as she saw Tobikichi get hurt again, Uramichi going over to her and giving her a small head pat. "That's my girl..." Uramichi thought, smirking as he heard Tobikichi groan in pain.

         ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"This is Usao, and this is Kumao!" Y/N exclaimed, showing Tobikichi her plushies of the pink rabbit and bear from "Together with Maman" as Uramichi and Mitsuo watched the two from the balcony. Tobikichi pretended that he didn't know who the two were, Uramichi advising him to not say that he or Mitsuo were Usao and Kumao respectively as it would "ruin Y/N's childhood".

"Aren't they cuties!" Tobikichi said, taking Usao and looking at him in fake awe. As Y/N and Tobikichi played with the plushies, Mitsuo looked at Uramichi and asked him "So......one night stand or ex girlfriend?". "What?" "Is Y/N the product of a one night stand or did you used to have a girlfriend that dropped her off with you once you two broke up." Uramichi sighed, putting his cigarette out on the ashtray and telling Mitsuo "Remember Sayaka?"

Mitsuo nodding, eventually going into shock when he realized what Uramichi meant by that. "Wait, you two actually ended up together?" Mitsuo asked Uramichi nodded and softly chuckled when he thought back to how much his kouhais tried to play matchmaker between him and his late fiancée. "Where is she now?" Uramichi went silent, looking down as he said "Try to guess.". Mitsuo knew what Uramichi meant by that, already noticing that the apartment could only fit two people and not three.

"I'm sorry for your loss...." Mitsuo said, Uramichi nodding as he went back to watching Y/N, who was now showing Tobikichi her Tokusatsu action figures. "She looks so much like her mother..." Uramichi muttered, Mitsuo nodding and noticing a white card that was in Uramichi's pocket. "What's this?" Mitsuo thought, taking the card and reading what it said. "Free therapy?" Mitsuo thought, the card quickly being taken away from him by Uramichi.

"You're thinking of going to therapy?" Mitsuo asked, Uramichi sadly smiling and telling him "I might lose custody of Y/N if I don't get my shit together.". Mitsuo didn't know what he should say, biting his lip and looking down as he heard that. "Daddy, I'm getting chased by a dino!" Y/N shouted, hiding behind Uramichi as Tobikichi who was pretending to be a Dinosaur playfully started to approach Y/N.

Uramichi and Mitsuo just chuckled, watching as Y/N ran away from Tobikichi with her laughter filling the apartment.

           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Y/N giggled as she played inside her bathtub full of bubbles, her (H/L) hair wet as she tried to see how long she could hold her breath underwater. When Y/N grabbed a handful of bubbles and blew on them, she heard the bathroom door open and saw her father enter the room with two towels in hand. "Okay, bath time is done." Uramichi told Y/N, Y/N looking at him with puppy dog eyes as she asked him "Can I please spend more time in the bubbles?".

Uramichi just shook his head, smiling a bit as He picked Y/N up and placed her on the toilet seat. He than wrapped the towel around Y/N, who asked "Can I see Tobi and Kuma again?". Uramichi raised a brow, about to ask her who "Tobi" and "Kuma" was until he realized she was talking about Tobikichi and Mitsuo. "I'll think about it." Uramichi said, Y/N giggling as he dried her hair with the second towel.

Uramichi than sighed, Y/N looking back at him and asking him "Are you okay, daddy?". "Yeah.....just thinking about a lot of stuff." Uramichi said, giving Y/N a small kiss and bringing her to her bedroom where her pajamas were laid out on the bed. As Uramichi helped Y/N get changed, he decided to tell her right than and there.

"Daddy's....going to visit someone." "Visit who?" "Someone called a therapist." Y/N tilted her head when Uramichi said that, asking her father "What's a therapist?". Uramichi sighed, telling Y/N "A therapist is someone that you tell your problems to and they help you with those problems.". "I'm going to visit a therapist so that they can help me with some problems I have." Y/N pouted a bit, wrapping her arms around her father as she told him "No! Daddy is the most perfect person I know."

As the alarm clock rang throughout the small apartment, a 31 year old brown haired man immediately hit the snooze button. The brunette's eyes were now wide open, the ringing from the alarm clock having caused him to wake up early from a good dream he was having, which was incredibly rare for someone like him.

Instead of getting up from the bed, the man only laid his face into the pillow, hoping that he would get a few more minutes a sleep before he left for work. However, just as he closed his eyes again, he heard the door to his bedroom open and small footsteps approach his bed. "Daddy! Daddy!" A young girl's voice said to the man, shaking him so that she could get him awake.

The man groaned, turning his back towards the little girl as she said to him "Daddy! I'm going to be late for school!". The man just waved the little girl off, mumbling "Daddy's still tired, Y/N.". The little girl named Y/N only pouted, her father telling her "Just get dressed and wait for me to wake up.....". As Y/N groaned, a thought popped into her head, making her smirk and run into the kitchen.

She grabbed a glass and poured sink water into it, going back to her father's room and began to slowly pour it onto his face. Once her father felt the liquid hit his face, his eyes shot open and he quickly sat up. Y/N giggled as her father began to wipe his face with his blanket, giving Y/N a small glare when he saw the glass of water in her hands. "What did I say about waking me up like that?" Y/N's father asked,  Y/N only laughing and leaving the bedroom to go back to her own and get dressed.

Y/N's father just smiled, getting out of bed and slightly stretching so that he could start the day. This was an average morning for Uramichi Omota, having his daughter wake him up whenever he decided to sleep in for a bit. Mainly, it was by jumping up and down on his bed or by pulling back the curtains to reveal the sunlight onto him. Sometimes, Y/N would pour water onto him, but Uramichi told her to stop doing that after Y/N caused him to believe that he accidentally pissed in his bed.....and eventually actually pissing on the bed once he saw the "piss" stain.

As Uramichi got dressed, he heard the TV in the living room turn on, chuckling to himself when he heard what was coming from the TV. "Hello kids, I'm Uramichi-Onii San! How are you?" Said the TV, Y/N giggling as she sat on the couch and held onto her Usao plushie as she watched her father on the screen. As Uramichi entered the living room, he leaned against the couch and pressed a kiss to her cheek. "Eggs today, right?" Uramichi asked, Y/N nodding and giving a kiss to Uramichi's forehead, her eyes still on the TV

Uramichi softly smiled, going to the kitchen and taking out a carton of eggs. As Uramichi started to cracks the eggs and put them on the frying pan that was on the stove, he heard himself from the TV  say "Okay! Today's Together with Maman is starting now!". "Onii-San, you're voice is hoarse." "I'm okay, it's just from all my hard drinking!"  Y/N laughed as she heard that, Uramichi blushing with embarrassment and going back to the living room.

"How about you watch some cartoons with your breakfast?" Uramichi suggested, grabbing the remote and changing the channel to a magical girl anime. Y/N looked at her father in annoyance, groaning as she crossed her arms and tried to take the remote away from him. Uramichi only smirked and raised the remote high in the air.

Y/N puffed her cheeks, going back to watching the TV as Uramichi went back to the kitchen and to continue to cook the eggs. While Uramichi liked the fact his daughter's favorite show was "Together with Maman", a show that had him as one of the stars. But....he didn't want her to see the parts that would cause her to ask questions.

Uramichi, despite what it seemed like, was depressed. He lived in a cheap apartment, barely had any friends, and was treated like shit by his landlady. Uramichi wasn't always like this, having been a professional gymnast before he was casted in "Together with Maman.", and was engaged to a beautiful woman. However, Uramichi had to quit being a gymnast once his fiancée got pregnant wi to Y/N, wanting to be there for his child and wife.

Though, tragedy would strike when Y/N was born, as  Uramichi's fiancée would pass away shortly after giving birth. Uramichi remembered that this was the start of his depression, having lost the love of his life on a day that was supposed to be one of his happiest. Uramichi would eventually fall into alcoholism, and become a heavy smoker in the process. He tried to raise Y/N while battling depression, which Uramichi wouldn't deny was a struggle in the start.

Uramichi thankfully wasn't as depressed since then, but he still felt worthless. While he didn't think his life was that crappy, he still was something that he didn't have in mind back when he was younger. As Uramichi finished the eggs, he placed in on the plate and poured ketchup on it which was shaped like a smiley face. "Alright, enjoy your meal." Uramichi said, a fancy tone in his voice as he placed the plate of eggs on the kitchen table.

Y/N noticed and went over to to the table, taking a seat and beginning to eat her eggs. Uramichi sat across from her, smiling as he watched his daughter happily eat her eggs with a big smile on her face. "Yummy!" Y/N exclaimed, Uramichi giving her a head pat as she finished her eggs. "Thank you, Daddy!" Y/N said, Uramichi nodding but eventually hearing notification come from his iPhone.

Uramichi took his iPhone out from his pocket and noticed that he received a text from Mitsuo. "Where are you?" The text said, Uramichi remembering that he had work for the day. "Y/N, we're heading out now." Uramichi said, getting up from his seat and heading to the front door of the apartment. Y/N excitedly nodded, grabbing her (F/C) backpack and putting it on her.

Y/N than out her hand into Uramichi's own, Uramichi smiling and opening the door so that they could head off to school and work respectively.

          ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What should I do?...." a drunken Tobikichi slurred, laying his head on the table that he, Uramichi, and Mitsuo were sitting at. The three were at a bar, during their usual hang out after they finished filming. Uramichi usually didn't come to the hang outs as he mainly picked up Y/N from school once he was done with work for the day, but thought that it wouldn't hurt to take a quick drink of cheap sake before picking his daughter ups

As Uramichi stared at Tobikichi while smoking a cigarette, Mitsuo ordered a refill on the his hot sake as Tobikichi mumbled "I wanna be popular with hot girls....". Uramichi just thought to himself "What time is it?", looking over to the clock and noticed that it was 6:45. Uramichi's eyes widened, realizing just how it was. "Shit!" Uramichi said out loud, getting up from his seat and getting his things together.

"Where are you going in such a hurry?" Mitsuo asked, Uramichi looking at him and saying "Forgot that I had a....date! Yeah, a date today!". Mitsuo only raised an eyebrow, not outright believing what Uramichi said to be true. Mitsuo and Tobikichi....in fact, the entire cast and crew of "Together with Maman" didn't know that Uramichi had a daughter, Uramichi never having the time to outright tell them that. Uramichi would rather keep it a secret, as he knew that the director would probably request Y/N to be apart of the show as one of the children that attended the filming sessions.

And Uramichi didn't want Y/N to see what his true personality was like.....

As Uramichi began to leave the bar, he heard Tobikichi slurry yell at him "Hey! Aren't you going to help me here!". Uramichi jsut scoffed at his kouhai, his main thought was arriving in time to Y/N's school. Once Uramichi made it, he saw that Y/N wasn't waiting outside the school as she usually did and got nervous. He went inside the school and headed towards Y/N's classroom, sighing in relief when he saw his daughter drawing a picture at her desk while waiting for him.

"Are you Y/N's father?" The teacher asked, Uramichi nodding as Y/N noticed that he was there and ran over to him to give him a big hug. Uramichi returned the hug, picking her up as the teacher told him "You were supposed to pick her up at 4:01". "I know, just got busy with a few things." "Alright, just don't let this happen again." Uramichi nodded, carrying Y/N out of the classroom and out of the school.

"Had a good day today?" Uramichi asked, Y/N nodding and snuggling into his chest. "We learned how to make origami today!" Y/N exclaimed, Uramichi smiling and listening on as his daughter began to tell him about what happened at school. However, when the two reached their apartment complex, Uramichi noticed a certain black car that was parked in the parking lot. "Oh no...." Uramichi said to himself, realizing who the car belonged to.

Uramichi quickly went up the stairs of his complex and went to his apartment, he saw a woman in her forties who wore business attire standing in front of it. "Mrs.Yamada!" Uramichi called out, Ms. Yamada looking up at him with her arms crossed. "What brings you here?" Uramichi asked nervously to the social worker, Mrs.Yamada pushing her glasses up and telling him "I'm here for my annual inspection."

"But....It's not until another two months?" "Sayaka's family recently emailed us about having possible  custody of Y/N." Uramichi gasped when he heard the name of his late Fiancée, and quickly noticed what was going on. "They want custody of Y/N?" Uramichi asked, wanting to get all the facts. Mrs. Yamada nodded, saying "Full time custody to be exact, as they believe that your.....mental state and living area isn't the best for Y/N."

Uramchi looked down at Y/N, seeing that she was now asleep in his arms. This wasn't the first time his in laws requested custody of Y/N, as that was the entire reason why Mrs.Yamada had her daily visits to check up on the father and daughter. Thanks to Uramichi's depression, his in laws never trusted him, and they wanted to take custody of Y/N so that she could grow up in a "normal" living environment.

"Come in...." Uramichi said, unlocking the door to his apartment and opening it, letting Mrs.Yamada in first. As Mrs. Yamada entered the apartment, Uramichi following, she looked around and went to the balcony of the apartment. While Uramichi went to Y/N's room and put her into bed, Mrs.Yamada noticed a ash try that was filled to the brim if cigarette buts and grimaced at it. Uramchi soon went to her side, Mrs. Yamada asking him "Working on that smoking addiction of yours".

Uramichi tensed up, nodding his head as Mrs. Yamada gave him an annoyed look and went to the kitchen. Mrs.Yamada saw fans of beer inside the trash can, and opened the refrigerator to see 5 wine bottles and packs of beers. "And are you working on your drinking problem?" Mrs. Yamada asked again, Uramichi growing nervous and slowly nodding his head, not saying a world to the older women. Mrs. Yamada just sighed, going to Uramichi and saying "Besides your........problems that you are dealing with, everything seems fine.". Uramichi sighed in relief, but looked up when Mrs.Yamada said "We will still be in talks with Sayaka's family about custody however."

Uramichi bit his lip, trying not to say anything to Mrs.Yamada as he didn't want to make things worse. Mrs. Yamada than handed Uramichi a card, which read "Need to talk to someone? Than attend free therapy!". "If you want to prove to them that you can take care of Y/N...." Mrs. Yamada said, Uramichi looking at the card and hesitantly taking it,  "It's best if you work out some things....".

Uramichi nodded, watching as Mrs. Yamada left the apartment but not before saying "Also, have to mention that my kids watch Together with Maman". Mrs. Yamada than winked at Uramichi, telling him "They love you~". Once Mrs. Yamada took her leave, Uramichi smiled a bit, a blush on his face. The smile than left, him looking back down at the card as he reread the letters on it over and over again.

            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Uramichi leaned on the balcony, smoking a cigarette as he looked at the night sky that was filled with stars. "I might lose Y/N...." Uramichi thought, thinking back to what Mrs. Yamada told him about his in laws. Uramichi sighed, putting his cigarette out on the ash try. He than heard footsteps coming from behind him, looking back to see his daughter holding her Usao plushie close to her.

Uramichi smiled, playfully asking Y/N "What are you doing up this late at night?". Y/N giggled, telling him "I wanted to get a glass of water.". Uramichi nodded, going back inside the apartment and pouring some water into a glass while in the kitchen. "Here you go." Uramichi said, Y/N nodding in thanks and taking a sip.

After a few minutes, Y/N was finished with her glass and was about to go back into her room until placed his hand on her head and ruffled her hair. "Have sweet dreams while you sleep, okay?" Uramichi asked, Y/N nodding as Uramichi gave her a kiss on her forehead. Y/N than went to her bedroom, Uramichi chuckling to himself and heading back to his own room, thinking to himself
