Tuán yuán fàn (团圆饭) atau reunion dinner merupakan satu kemestian bagi kaum Cina setiap kali tibanya Tahun Baru Cina. Bagi saya, setiap tahun tanpa gagal, destinasi kepulangan saya adalah ke rumah ibu bapa di Ampang. Walau sedekat mana pun jaraknya, nilai sebuah “kepulangan” itu tetap tiada tandingan. ​Mengimbas sejarah, pada zaman purba, ahli keluarga terpaksa merantau jauh demi mencari rezeki.…

"H-hai, Alfred-ku-" he was brought out of his thoughts by a surprise flying tackle hug, sending hot tea everywhere.

"Alfred-kun! Please be more mindful!" scolded the smaller boy

"wha-! Alfred-kun! P-put me down!" stammered the raven haired. The American ignored his pleas and ran up the stairs, laughing all the way.

Alfred finally decided to put Kiku down, slowly and quietly for some reason. He bent over and softly kissed the Japanese man's forehead. Alfred put a finger to his pale lips.

Hero was protectively wrapped around the smaller cat and their children and showering his seven family members with affection.

Small tears came to the Japanese man's eyes as he turned towards his lover. "So we're grandparent's now, huh Keeks?" Alfred whispered. He hugged the American tightly, forgetting his own personal space issues in the process. He did not object when he was picked up and wrapped his arms and legs around the taller man's neck and waist. Later that day they pampered the cats and their kittens and for some reason Alfred went you to do some jewelry shopping...
