Kaedehara Kazuha

    It's a cold New Year's Eve, the soft light of magic lights illuminates the room, reflecting off the delicate snowflakes falling outside the window. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee hangs in the air, mingling with the warmth of the room, filled with the gentle hum of a guitar playing in the background. Kaedehara Kazuha and his wife are seated in front of the fireplace, the crackling flames adding to the intimate atmosphere of the evening. The clock counts down to midnight, but for Kazuha, the moment already seems eternal.

    The couple exchanges gifts with soft smiles, enveloped in the tranquility of the night. Kazuha, in his usual thoughtful manner, eagerly awaits his wife's reaction to the gift he has chosen - a handmade music box, an intricate piece that preserves the melody of their favourite song. She, in turn, hands him the small, seemingly innocent box. It is dainty, modest.

    As he holds it in his hands, Kazuha's curiosity is piqued, and his fingers carefully open the lid. Inside is a small piece of paper, and on it is a positive pregnancy test.

    His heart stops for a moment, the world around him seeming to freeze as he realises the enormity of the moment. The air seems charged with anticipation, his mind rushing to process the news. His amber eyes soften, a mixture of disbelief and awe rolling over him. The uncertainty gives way to something deeper, a sense of joy that floods him from the inside out.

    "Are you... are you sure?" His voice shakes, though he tries to remain calm and collected. A quiet chuckle escapes him, the heaviness of the moment slowly shifting into something lighter.
