As soon as they were on street, little Tsubaki asked," Onii Chan are you alright?"

Dexter who was in his own thoughts looked at her with a smile and said," Of course sweetie, what could happen to your Onii Chan?!"

Seeing this Tsubaki also smiled and said," But you looked super scary when you were talking you know."

"Well, sometimes you need to scold naughty children." Dexter said and asked," Now where do you want to go until they sort things through."

"But will Akeno be alright? She looked sad when talking about her feelings." Little Tsubaki asked in concern.

"She has Shuri with her so she should be alright, But are you alright?" Dexter asked in concern.

"Yeah, I have Onii Chan, so I don't need anyone." Tsubaki said with a smile and asked," Onii Chan can you buy cotton candy for me and Akeno?"

"Ok but it will take some time for them to sort things out how about we go to park till then." Dexter asked and Tsubaki nodded in agreement so they made their way to park.

Inside the house after Dexter and Tsubaki left the house.

"Akeno, I am really sorry for yesterday. Could you forgive your worthless mom?" Shuri asked with red eyes.

Hearing Shuri, Akeno started to cry loudly in her embrace.

"I am sorry mom, I have seen you, work from dawn to dusk without complaining and yesterday when you left me I felt that I also don't want to live. I am sorry mom for always worrying you." Akeno said in tears.

"Shuuuu shuu, don't cry my baby. Its adult's job to work for their children and you are always so understanding and never ever complained about hardship, I am very proud of you, never forget that, do you understand. No matter where the life takes us I will never ever leave you if I could control it." Shuri said to the crying Akeno.

After hugging each other for quite a while they finally separated and little Akeno asked in concern," Mom, do you think?! Onii Chan won't like me anymore?"

"Who can remain angry at my little angel? And your Onii Chan is a good man he won't be angry anymore He only said what he said so that you can enjoy your time better." Shuri said with a smile.

"Thank you Mom, you are the best." Little Akeno said with a laugh and kissed Shuri on her cheeks.

"Mom, I want to tell you a secret, but you are not allowed to tell Onii Chan, Promise." Little Akeno said while forwarding her pinkie finger.

"Ara Ara, a secret from your Onii Chan? Now, what could that be?" Shuri said while putting her forefinger on her chin.

"Mom, you are not allowed to tell Onii Chan." Then Akeno herself brought her pinkie closer to Shuri's pinkie and they finally made a pinkie promise.

Akeno said a little proudly while puffing her chest," I and Tsubaki had decided that we will marry Onii Chan when we grow up."

Hearing her Shuri gave a hearty laugh and seeing this Akeno became irritated and said," Mom don't laugh we are serious."

Finally controlling her laugh, Shuri said in a tease," So, my little girl has even found a groom for herself."

"Mom, we are not joking, we will marry Onii Chan. Tsubaki is going to be the first wife and I am going to be the second wife." Akeno said.

"Ara Ara, look my girl has already left me for a groom. Now, what would a poor old woman do alone." Shuri said while faking her tears.

Seeing her mother said Akeno started to panic," Eh...mom... I won't be living you..."

"But you already found a groom what would an old woman like me will do, I will just be left in a house alone and even my girl won't come and visit me." Shuri said continuing to fake her tears.

Akeno started to think and said slowly," Well, Onii Chan will already have two wives so how about you joining us mom, then we will be a true family."

Hearing her little girl talk about marriage, Shuri was stunned into silence and after thing a while silently she nodded," Ok, I will also join you. But will I be a first or third wife."

"Really Mom?! Hehe, we will all be family then." Little Akeno said excitedly then became a little serious and her face was just so cute that Shuri couldn't help but pinch her cheeks but removing Shuri's hand with light irritation Akeno said," We will need to decide. Ok it will be decided after Tsubaki comes home." Little Akeno declared.

Hearing her little girl talk like a grown-up Shuri said with amusement," Hai hai, we will decide after little Tsubaki comes home."

Then she gave Dexter a call through landline as her phone was wasted during the fight.

In the park, Dexter was sitting on a bench and little Tsubaki was sitting on his lap and both of them were trying to find birds and when they found one they will both tell each other. They were having a competition on who could spot most birds.

Then Little Tsubaki asked," Onii Chan did you find a pet for us?"

Hearing her Dexter gave a smile and said," Of course honey, when we return home I will give it to you."

"I knew that Onii Chan is the best. Can show it to me now?" Tsubaki asked in anticipation.

Dexter gave a sly smile and said," Nope." and got a pout from little Tsubaki and as they were enjoying their teasing, his phone rang, seeing the landline number he took the call and they made their way back home while buying cotton candy on the way.

When they reached home Dexter opened the door and Tsubaki ran inside to tell Akeno about the pets. After all, they were kids and would be distracted easily.

But little Akeno first came and hugged him then they both started to pester him for the pet, seeing such a warm atmosphere Shuri had a warm smile on her face.

"Ok Ok, I will give it to you." Dexter said while throwing in the towel.

He opened the shop and bought three eggs for 4000 points each and gave it to them.

They all looked puzzled and Dexter gave a mysterious smile," These are special eggs, for Tsubaki it's a dog, for Akeno it's a bird and for Shuri, it's again a different species of dog."

"Are you sure Onii Chan?" little Tsubaki asked with doubt and Dexter replied with," you will know when it hatches."

Seeing this scene Shuri asked with a smile," Dexter, if you have unfinished business could you go out I need to talk to girls."

Hearing her Dexter just waved his hand and said," Yeah, I was going to go out in a little while but it doesn't matter. Alright, I will be off then, have a good chat."

This brought the girls out of their own world," But Onii Chan when will it hatch."

"In three to four days." Dexter said while moving out of the house.
