Kumiko : After that.. I rebuilt the shrine.... And since then am living all alone... That was the last time I saw Fujiko.... When you mentioned about a kyuubi I knew it was her.... But looks like my daughter is alive....

There was a long silence after that... None of us could muster up enough courage to say something... Nor did we find anything to say... I felt dizzy... And sick... Breathing out a little I finally broke the silence...

Me : I think.... We all are hungry😣🍕... Let me cook something... And Mahiro... Please take care of your wounds....

Mahiro : It's not a big deal.

Jotaro : Show off 😒.

Ignoring his comments Mahiro takes out a long white sheet of paper and writes something in Japanese inscriptions with black ink and holds it in between his two fingers and chants something. The paper disappear creating a white light and his injuries gets healed.

Me : Amazing. (I was watching it amazed)

Jotaro : Nothing special. Anyone can do it.

Me : Can you? (looks at Jotaro)

Jotaro : I-I.... Um....

Mahiro : Don't even try... It would burn you.

Jotaro : Tch!

Me : Don't even start. (walking towards kitchen) I think I should make some sushi 🍱🍣🍤.

Few hours later I came out with two plates filled with sushis and placed it in front of them.

Together : Bon Appetit!!!

Taking sushi in our hands we start eating.

My eyes got distracted by Mahiro

My eyes got distracted by Mahiro. He is a messy eater. His cheek and hand got covered in rice. Putting the side of his thumb in his mouth he starts licking it. His eyes are looking out of the window.

Me : Um.... Mahiro.. (I tried to bring disgust in my voice)

Mahiro : (face full of rice) Yea?

Me : Um... (points at the rice stick on his cheek) Remove it....

Mahiro : I don't get it.

Me : Are you dumb?

Mahiro : Whatever.

I didn't feel like arguing with him. So I dragged myself towards him and sits in front of him.... Taking my face near him.. I start removing those pieces of rice from his cheek with my hand... He tries to move his head away in embarrassment.... Using my left hand I hold him by his chin and made him look at me as I continued removing them with my right hand... Our eyes met...I even could hear his breathe.....My heart started beating faster. A small blush came over my face.
