THE UPS AND DOWNS OF HAVING A FAMILY (1/2)
----------------------------------------------
" I said calmdown i didn't do anything with your daughter."
The man immediately got out of his rage induced stupor once he heard Soichi's chilly voice. He look at his daughter and found out that nothing noticeable happened to her so he sigh in relief.
Soichi saw this and decided to let the metal pipe go within his hand.
" Papa!, Uwahhh!" the girl named Aoi quickly got up and hugged her dad while crying he then hugged her back along with her mother.
Seeing this scene right before his eyes. Bought back many kinds of memories from the past..... Memories that he cant forget no matter what.
' Family huh.....' Soichi reminisce stopped as he got back from his own thoughts.
" You guys done with your little family reunion? If so can you move out of the way? I dont have all day here."
The family realised what they were doing and and immediately move to the side. Aoi's father took a deep breath and said continued.
" u-um im sorry for lashing out on you i didn't mean it. Its just that a father would do anything to protect his child. "
" like mindlessly hitting innocent bystanders with a metal pipe who didn't even hurt her?"
" i-im sorry...."
Seeing his expression Soichi could only sigh and continue.
*sigh* "its ok atleast youre a responsible parent. But a word of advise dont go beserk when fighting others if you keep this up not only you but your whole family will be in danger. Also keep a close eye on your daughter from now on this world is doomed if you want to save the people you love then think rationally."
The Father could only look down in shame but his determination to keep his family safe had risen.
" Thank you ill keep that in mind. "
Soichi nodded and was about to leave until someone grabbed his hand. He looked at the one who did it and saw that it was Aoi.
" umm... mister Where's your family?"
His mother quickly grabbed her arm and berated her.
" Aoi its rude to ask about other people's personal matters, quickly apologize."
" i-im sowwy" with her head down below she apologize meekly.
'Like father like daughter huh.' with a smirk on his face Soichi bent down and looked at her in the eyes and continued.
" Its big brother not mister and as for your question, the answer to that is they're already dead. way back since i was still a little kid like you."
" s-sowwy for a-asking, Aoi should've just kept her mouth shut." with a sad and downhearted gaze Aoi looked at Soichi expecting to be scolded but was suprised because only he patted her on the head gently. Well its not like she hates it infact she enjoyed very much.
" Its ok things just happened. And i was weak back then so i couldnt do anything but its different now... Tell me do you love your parents."
" Yes!"
Aoi answered in a very enthusiastic voice. Soichi then added.
" Do you want to protect them?"
" Yes!"
His carefree expression then changed into a serious one.
" if so, then you have to get stronger way stronger, the only way to protect those you care about is to have the ability to do so, Got it?"
" Yes!"
" Good."
With that said and done Soichi looked at Aoi's family then he decided to tell them what he knows about the current situation.

" i see... So its the zombie apocalypse... Thank you for telling us what you know. "
Aoi's father thanked him from the bottom of his heart.
" As long that it helps also you shouldn't stay here anymore I'm sure that this store will be looted by the others later. Try and find a safeplace to hide. If youre going get some food there's some boxes in the storage room as well some plastic bags in the Cashier counter. Also take this. "
Soichi handed gave them 2 Glock 19, 3 spare clips and finally his one spare bokken. Lets be honest having five guns is pure overkill. Plus he wont even use it that much often as it creates loud noises that will attract the undead. As for his spare bokken he was thinking of looting a blacksmith shop in the future anyway plus his bokken is super sturdy as it was made by a company renowned to the whole japan for its outstanding quality.
And if you asked the author for the real reason he would give only one answer and that is 'PROTECT THE LOLI'S AT ALL COST!!'
Aoi's father widened his eyes when Soichi gave him 3 guns.
" w-we cant take this i know how important firearms now adays. its already enough that you gave us information. We couldn't abuse your kindness."
" you should be a litte bit more perceptive you can clearly see that i have 2 guns with me." Soichi used his finger to point out the guns within his body holsters. While Aoi's father could only look with awe and admiration to the man before him how could he get so many guns in just short amount of time.
" plus its not like i have 4 arms or something. add to the fact that i still have 3 more and having 6 is just pure over kill. I also advise you to only use the guns in 'Desperate' situations zombies would swarm you because of the sounds it produces. As for the spare bokken i was planning to loot some katana's in the nearby future anyway so it doesn't really bother me that much. "
< you guys shouldn't be salty about losing the guns i wont be using it that much until i get to the 3rd arc plus ones we reach the 3rd arc he will have some new guns and weapons for his upgrade so yeah its pretty useless right now. >
" t-then i will selfishly take your offer thank you umm... May i know youre name?"
" Sure i dont mind my name is Sunada Soichi. Its nice knowing you mister?"
" Ah! Sorry my name is Sawaguchi Aki and she's my wife Sawaguchi Momo and my precious little daughter Sawaguchi Aoi. "
The 3 of them bowed all together paying their respects to Soichi.
"" Its nice to meet you Sanada-kun.""
"It nice to meet you too Big brother."
The all of them greeted Soichi in unison. While Soichi welcomed it with a smile and also said.
" likewise i hope you guys survive take care of each other."
Now that Soichi said his goodbyes he was about to pick up his supplies but once again got interrupted by Aoi's hand.
" u-um can Big Brother show Aoi his face?"
Aoi looked at Soichi with sparkling eyes. Finding it hard to turn her down he took his helmet and revealed his handsome face he smiled and teasingly said to Aoi.
" so~ what do you think? is your big brother handsome? "
" Super handsome!! U-um big brother will we meet each other again?" Aoi asked in rather unsure voice.
" if fate wants it to be then when we meet in the future ill take out for some fun."
Aoi's eyes sparkled at Soichi's words.
" Really?! Promise? "
" hehe sure i promise. "
' weird i suddenly hear the sounds of police siren's meh must be my imagination.'
" then ill have to go see you all next time he bowed his head and went outside of the store. Once he reached his motorbike he quickly tied the box at the back of his seat along with the plactic bags. He then got on his bike put on his helmet once again and waved his hands at the family who also waved their hands back at him.
*VROOMM!*
And with the sound of his engine he went on his way to a near gas station to get his tank full.
As for what will happen to the Sawaguchi family only time will tell if they survived or not.
