Everyone at the table calmed down.
Mom righted the fallen chair, coughed once, and sat down quietly.
“…Rin, I love Sig,” Mom said, pinning Father with a piercing look.
Father gave a heavy nod. “I’m also deeply in love with Minoru. It’s to the point that I want to swallow him whole, from his head to his toes.”
Father usually lacked words, but now he was speaking too much. It seemed like he was happy to hear Mom saying that he “loved” him. They were really intimate.
“Even if Mom is bullied…?” Timid, Rin raised her face, shaking her black hair. She stared at Mom, as if avoiding Father’s gaze.
“What you saw was all a dream, Rin,” Mom said with a bright laugh. It was so bright that it was unnatural. Both Rin and I tilted our heads in confusion.
―Dream?
“Yeah, a dream. Sig won’t bully me. Because, he likes… me.”
Mom’s face went red even though he was the one to say those words. Cute.
“Mom, you won’t cry? You won’t be sad? …It was a dream?”
“It’s alright. You won’t see such a scary dream again. I promise you.”
As Mom’s gentle hand stroked over Rin’s head, she nodded slowly and closed her eyes.
And then, she turned around to Father, still timid. “Father, I’m sorry for saying that I hate you…”
“Rin… It’s okay, I don’t mind.”

That was a lie. He was really hurt, right…

Rin wasn’t the only one who heard what happened last night; Ran did as well.
I need to tell my younger brother properly, for the sake of Mom’s peace of mind.
“So it’s a dream? …Hmm, I understand.”
It’s a promise, okay?
I gripped Ran’s hand tight. He sure acted like an adult sometimes.
Ran didn’t listen to Mom’s words that much, but he always took what Father and I said seriously.
At a glance, Rin was already laughing while being held by Father. Father also seemed happy.
Mom’s smile was a little stiff, though…
With this, our family issue had been settled… maybe.
“I like Father and Mom. I love you all!”
My family was all getting along very well.

[Family Meeting • Afterwards*]
Today, Sig had been in a good mood since the morning.
I knew the reason. It was definitely because of what happened last night.
I was embarrassed just from remembering it. I was so embarrassed it felt like fire was coming out of my face.
It couldn’t be helped anyway. I had promised Rin that she wouldn’t see scary dreams anymore.
Sig wouldn’t bully me.
And I wouldn’t cry, no matter what happened.
In the first place, I didn’t cry. That was… just me being a little loud. After all, Sig was… like that……
Anyway, I would do anything so that she wouldn’t have “scary dreams” anymore. That was what I’d decided.
In short, it was a matter of word choice.
“Ah, no… You can’t do that… no…”
“Do you hate it?”
“…Uu, that’s not it…”
― “No,” “Don’t want,” and “Impossible,” are taboo words.
“Does it feel good?”
“Nn, un! It feels good… ngh, there!”
“You like it when I do it like this, right Minoru?”
“…Ah, ahh, I like, I like it…”
― “Like,” “More,” and “Feels Good,” are OK.
“…I like you. Sig, I like you…”
“I love you… My Minoru.”
Yup.
With this, it was alright even if the children got up to go to the toilet.
…Yup.
I was also a little touched because it took less time for one round to finish.
But why did… the number of times we did it… double?
I didn’t remember much of what happened towards the end.
…I didn’t cry again, right?
…….
……….
No, it should be fine.
Sig was in such a good mood after all…
