Atsushi loved you more than anything. He never understood how your mother could abandon you the way she had- dumping him with the responsibility of a parent as a clueless single teenager, but he swore no matter how hard his situation was- he’d always be a stable figure in your life. It was the least you deserved.

Though it was becoming a little difficult now that he had a job, seemingly the only option was to take you to work with him at the ADA… so now here he was, gently holding your hand as he entered the office- only to be instantly smothered by the receptionists gushing over you.

Atsushi gently picked you up to sit on his hip “Say hi sweetie.” His voice was soothing and encouraging, reassuring you that, despite the noise and unfamiliarity, the office a was safe place.
