Yuzuki  was very enthusiastic today.

 

There was takikomi gohan, fried chicken, salad, and soup on the table.

 

“Amazing ……”

 

Rio looked at the dishes lined up in front of her and let out a voice.

 

“Rio, was there anything you didn’t like?”

 

“No problem!　Thank you!”

 

I and Yuzuki also joined her at the table.

 

Let’s all eat together.

 

“It’s delicious …….”

 

“I’m glad it suits your taste.”

 

Yuzuki also relaxed her cheeks happily.

 

“Because it’s not normal to eat with someone like this.”

 

Rio lives alone.

 

I don’t think there’s a lot of things to surround the table with someone.

 

“If you like, you are welcome to come again anytime.”

 

My father said in a gentle voice.

 

“Is that all right?”

 

“Of course. I’m busy with work most of the time.”

 

He laughed at himself.

 

“Me too! I enjoy talking with you, Rio!”

 

From Yuzuki’s point of view, I wonder if it’s close to the feeling of having an older sister.

 

“Thank you,…….”

 

Rio says as if she is chewing on those words.

 

“Dad, do you want a drink?”

 

Yuzuki asks her father.

 

“I don’t mind at least for today.”

 

My father doesn’t usually drink.

 

He is not a total bore, but he has been holding back because he never knows when he will be called away from his job.

“I’m going to go make something!”

 

Yuzuki said and started to get up.

 

“No, I’ll make it. Highball, okay?”

 

“Oh, that’s what I’ll have.”

 

My father always had a highball when he drank.

 

As I recall, there was sparkling water in the refrigerator and whiskey on hand.

 

I put ice in the glass and chilled the glass.

 

I poured about one-tenth of the whiskey into the glass.

 

Next, I added the sparkling water, stirred it lightly, and finished the drink.

 

“Here you go, Dad.”

 

“Thanks.”

 

Dad gulps down the highball.

 

He was more talkative than usual.

 

For the first time in a long time, he seemed to be able to forget about work.

 

“I’m going to the bathroom.”

 

I said and got up.

 

“Thank you so much, Rio.”

 

Saying so, the father bows his head lightly.

 

“What did I do?”

 

“I think it was you, of all people, who put the light in Ryo’s eyes. I believe it was your encounter with Ryo that led him to his new goal.

 

After winning the World Championship, I think Ryo had lost some of his goals.

 

He spent less time playing games and seemed to enjoy playing them less than before.

 

It was then that I saw Rio and Ryo’s first face to face live streaming.

 

There I saw Ryo’s smile as he was having a lot of fun.

 

I lost my wife, was busy with work, and could not do much to be a father to my children.

 

That is why I want my children to be happy.

 

Meeting Rio must have had a great impact on him.”

 

“Ryo has always helped me, too. I am sure that it is because he was raised by such a father that he has the kindness you have today.”

 

Rio’s words brought tears to his father’s eyes.
