Summary: Endeavour takes part in Fuyumi's new holiday family tradition.
Where is the Fireplace?
"Yeah, so I'd like to know who replaced my stocking with an old stinky sock?" Enji stared at a dingy white sock hanging from the ladder of new stockings.
"Why you guys...," Fuyumi shot Natsuo and Shouto an exasperated look. "Hanging these up was supposed to be our new holiday tradition!"
Enji's sons shrugged in unison, refusing to make Enji's attempt at bonding with them easy but Enji knew he deserved their ire after doing a great job at wrecking their lives.
He watched each child retrieve their stocking from the ladder, taking stock of their presents, with smiles brighter than any holiday decoration in that room and shame roiled through him for only noticing those smiles now. How many sights had selfish ambitions robbed him of seeing?
Plucking the dirty sock off the ladder, Fuyumi handed it to him with utmost care. "Here you go, Dad!"
And Enji stuck his hand inside, expecting to find a gag gift within its woolly depths yet what he pulled out proved Enji wrong, choking him with emotion.
Cradling a white mug bearing the word 'dad,' Enji felt a strange warmth tingling his face and he regarded his children whose acknowledgement he did not deserve. This was the greatest gift he could never ask for.
"Merry Christmas," he gruffed.
The End
