" Please follow me [ name ]-san, you are drenched. Let me give you extra clothes so you can change and I can wash your clothes " senjuro grabbed her haori. Now he felt really guilty. It was his fault that she got this wet. Now she might even catch a cold.

" It's fine senjuro. I just need to..I-I " before [ name ] could finish her sentence a sneeze came out of her mouth. She kept sneezing over and over.

She sighed as shinjuro and senjuro kept looking at her with a deadpanned face.

Like father like son. 

She sighed and nodded. Senjuro smiled and lead [ name ] to a extra room and gave her other clothes for her to change in. Shinjuro just smiled. Seeing how her daughter figure and son were bonding. Thinking about how much [ name ] has grown.

The last time he saw her she was barely a little girl.

" Where are they ? " shinjuro heard his son coming from the kitchen. Shinjuro hummed and drank some of his tea.

" Senjuro went to show [ name ] a room where she can change " kyojuro hummed and went back to the kitchen.

Later on shinjuro heard his two sons arguing and yelling in the kitchen while [ name ] was changing in the other room.

" ONI-CHAN WHAT ARE YOU DOING ?! "

" HAHA ! RELAX IM JUST DOING SOME TEA FOR [ name ] ! ITS GOING TO MAKE HER FEEL BETTER ! "

" THATS NOT HOW YOU DO IT !! MOVE, LET ME DO IT ! YOU ARE GOING TO BURN DOWN THE WHOLE KITCHEN "

Shinjuro sighed. One similar thing about his two sons was that they were both really loud.

" So loud.. "
.
.
" Achoo ! "

[ name ] was laying down in a futon. She had a cold and fever. Shinjuro was in his room and the two brothers were looking over [ name ]. There was a warm cloth in her forehead and tea besides her.

Nothing was really working.

" I'm so sorry [ name ]-san ! It's my fault you got sick, sorry for troubling you " senjuro looked down as tears were starting to form in his round eyes.

[ name ] simply gave him a head pat and shook her head. She didn't want to take a lot because she would have sneeze attacks, were she would kept sneezing non-stop.

" I'm going to check up on father, oni-chan please watch over her " senjuro walked out of the room so now it was only kyojuro and [ name ].

Kyojuro just stared at her, she was closing her eyes. His guess was that she was trying to fall asleep, but she couldn't.

[ name ] shivered slightly. Kyojuro grabbed another blanket and covered her with it. She wasn't joking about her catching very bad colds.

He changed her cloth once again. Dipping it into the bowl full of warm water. She had told them that warm water usually helps her feel better.

" Try jasmine tea, it makes me feel better too.. " she whispered. Kyojuro nodded and waited until senjuro came back so he could prepare it. Since kyojuro almost burned down the kitchen last time.

Kyojuro looked over at the shoji which was opened by senjuro. [ name ] opened her eyes and stared at kyojuro, which he hasn't noticed yet.

" How is father ? " he asked. Senjuro just smiled.
" He is sleeping " he answered his brother. Kyojuro warmly smiled at his younger brother and hummed.

" Oh, is there jasmine tea ? [ name ] said it helps her feel better " senjuro nodded and left the room once again, closing the shoji behind him.

" I will be right back ! " he yelled as he made his way to the kitchen and prepare some jasmine tea for [ name ].

Kyojuro chuckled and looked back at [ name ] who was still staring at him. He raised his eyebrow and slightly tilted his head to his left. [ name ] sighed and soon her arms reached to kyojuros shoulders and pulled him towards her.

Kyojuro wasn't enough to react and finally realized that he was laying down next to [ name ]. His face flushed red and looked down to see [ name ] hugging him and snuggling her face into his chest.

" Wow.. you are way warmer...please, stay with me " kyojuro's eyes widened. He didn't know how to react. [ name ] never acted this way before, but he didn't mind it at all. In his opinion it was actually pretty cute to him.

Thy fixed them selfs in the futon. Kyojuro was being the big spoon while she was being the small spoon. He wrapped his arms around her back and pulled her closer. He covered them with the blanket. She simply hugged him and snuggled her face into his chest.

And soon they both fell asleep.

" Okay i'm back- " senjuro slapped his mouth with his hand, preventing him self from talking any further. He smiled at the cute scene that was happening before him. He placed down the tray that had the tea right next to the futon and blew off all the candles in the room.

He heard his father walking so he ran up to him and tugged his sleeves. Shinjuro hummed and turned around to look at senjuro with confusion in his face. He was still half asleep, he barely woke up to use the restroom.

" Come look father ! " senjuro slightly yelled and pulled him to the room where [ name ] was resting in. Shinjuro just sighed and allowed his son to drag him towards the room.

They stopped right in front of the room and saw how the two young adults were sleeping peacefully together.

Senjuro looked over at his father who was smiling.

" Come on, let's go sleep " senjuro's eyes shone bright. It's the first time he ever snuggled with his father. He had snuggled with kyojuro but never with him.

There was excitement shown in his eyes.

The whole day the rengoku family and [ name ] just spent their day being lazy and sleeping. It was cloudy outside with a lot of raining and thunderstorms. Everything was turned off in the rengoku residence. They just laid down in their futons, and covered them self with their comfy and warm blankets.

It was very peaceful and tranquil.
