Chapter Text
There was a man named Kenzou Tenma who lived in an apartment building in Berkeley, California, which was called K Flats. He’s known a boy named Johan and his twin sister Nina since the day after they were born. Their mother was named Anna. He knew her since the day she moved into the apartment building, which was a month before the children were born. Her apartment was next to his on the left. After three weeks of getting to know each other they became close, forming a platonic relationship.
After the twins turned five Kenzou offered to watch them when he was free, which were on the weekends since he’s a high school teacher. Anna took the offer. It became routine in a very short time. He’s done it for five years.
On a Saturday around Noon
Kenzou came back from an errand he had. He saw what looked like Johan petting a neighbor's cat. Deciding to walk up to the boy to say a quick "hello" to him. When he got close enough what he really saw was Johan was picking a flea out of the cat's fur on the head and placed a small flea on a web of a daddy long leg spider. He watched the spider grab the flea and wrap it in it's web. "Johan that's cruel."
"Another bug would of been caught in the web." Johan got up from the ground and stood next to him. "Plus it's cruel of the flea to suck the cat's blood out of him."
"It's not a good habit Johan. Please don't do it again."
"Okay. I won't." Johan hugged him. Kenzou sighed before rubbing his head.
"Where's your mother?" He stopped hugging him.
"Inside with Nina." Johan took him to his mother and sister in his apartment that is the home he shares with them. Kenzou greeted them like he always did when he sees them. Nina went up to the Asian man and gave a big bear hug. "Hello Kenzou." Kenzou hugged her back. Anna waved and greeted him from the couch.
Before meeting Anna and her children he's never felt like had belong to a family of his own. He's not related to them by blood but he knows them like family.
