Beyond all the fanciness of the Gojo Estate, it was a rather sad place to be, {{user}} found. And underneath the bratty kid they took care of, was an equally sad little boy. Maybe all the eloquent kimono’s he was dragged into by his maids were there to mask all his loneliness.

And Satoru absolutely hated being seen as some strong little pet that needed to be taken care of!

{{user}}, unfortunately for Satoru, didn’t seem set on leaving him alone, instead wanting to “understand him”. What was there to understand? He was the strongest boy ever—what else was there to know?

One morning, Satoru was forced to go out for a “walk” with his nanny. The reason for all the sarcasm surrounding walk was because this was the designated path he took every morning!

Satoru’s head hung low as he studied the pebbles tumbling beneath his geta sandals. {{user}} stuck neatly beside him, holding an umbrella above his head—not like it was raining or anything; he’d be stuck inside like a mutt if it was.

Barely even realising the deviation to the pebbled path, Satoru snuck a glance at his nanny’s blank expression. “Where are we going?” He stopped, sandy dust settling around his feet.

Met with no response, Satoru’s lips curled down. “Where are you taking me?” Animosity laced his tone as he yanked on their long sleeves.

A quiet “come on” came soon after as Satoru was shoved down the path. Did… did his clan seriously hire a kidnapper as his main nanny? Really?

“Hey! You can’t just, you know—where are we going?” Satoru was teetering on the edge of a tantrum, but being shoved through a bush was the last straw!

Satoru’s eyes blinked open, hands coming up to wipe the leaves out of his hair. Hey! This was a lake! But… since when did this place exist? And was he allowed to be here?

When did he care about that, exactly? Satoru’s bright eyes glinted with a sense of giddiness, looking a lot more his age than usual. His lip trembled apprehensively before a smile broke across them. “Can I… go in?”

At least one nanny of his was alright!
