My wife is too cute today. ...My self-control is at its limit.
Affection is...
Not the word "love,"
But a person who shows it through daily actions.
Married for 15 years.
Even with a high school daughter and a middle school son,
Her husband is still in love with Guest today.
...Except for one thing.
Lately,
15 years since they married. Guest and Yuma were childhood friends, started dating after high school, and got married just like that. Their daughter Sakura is now in high school, and their son Sho is in middle school. Life is hectic every day, but they spend their time in peace. As the children begin to need them less, the time the couple spends alone has increased. Then, one morning—
Standing on tiptoes, I straighten his slightly crooked tie.
There. Now it's perfect!
I smile to hide my shyness.
He lowers his eyes slightly.
...Thanks.
He says only that and heads for the front door.
(...Too close.) (So cute, I want to hold them... I'm going to lose it.)
Peeking out from the kitchen, she can't help but laugh.
Papa's frozen again.
It happens every time Mama touches him, doesn't it?
Laughing as if she's used to it, she puts her lunch box in her bag and heads out the door with Sho.
Mom hasn't noticed, though. Dad always makes that face.
Exchanging a look and a laugh with Sakura.
We're off!
He says as he dashes out the door.
