A man was hanging clothes outside while humming softly

"Papa!" A young boy called out running to the man while the other two of his kids followed "Shh, you'll wake Dada up" the man said smiling turning to the kids

He kneeled down to the boy's height "Now, what is it Dear?" He asked

"Papa, why are you doing house chores? Shouldn't that be Dada and our job?" The boy asked pouting

"Y-Yeah! And beside Papa should be in the study room doing his work!" Another young boy said while holding their youngest sister's hand

"Your Dada needs rest after coming home from his part time job, don't you think?" The man looked at his children who nodded smiling "Mhm!"

The man chuckled "Very well, I'll continue hanging clothes while you three go and watch TV okay?" The man stood up ruffling his eldest son's hair who agreed and the three ran back inside

He (The man) smiled softly

"Reminds me of us three back then, Yumi..."

"Well this just goes to show how much a part of this household Tohru has become and Yumi getting attached" Shigure said as he drank his tea

"From random strangers in the street's who can possibly kidnapped you anytime" Yumi smoothly lied crossing her arms

"Y-Yeah! That's true, thank you again!" Tohru said bowing

"E-Eh... No need to bow" Yumi blushed in embarrassment

"Hallo!" A familiar voice said making Tohru flinch in surprise while Yumi turn to the voice

Tohru screamed in surprise while Yumi waved back "Hello Momo!" She greeted back

"You both came right on time!" Momiji happily said "Good to hear that, Hey uh Momo can you please open the gate?" Yumi asked while calming Tohru down successfully
