“Daddy!!” a little girl of five squealed, running toward her father, Sesshomaru, with arms opened wide. Her dark hair, highlighted with platinum strands, fanned out behind her like a cloak. Sesshomaru stood at the entrance, looking down at her as she instantly attached herself to his left leg. She pouted. “You took so long parking the car!”
“Yes, Daddy. Where on earth did you end up parking? The other side of California?” the mother, Rin, teased. She was holding onto a large brown basket and was readjusting the large sunhat on her head. Walking over to her husband, Rin gave him a peck on his cheek and slipped her smaller hand into his larger one.
“Mommy, I wanna go play on the side. Please?” Shinju begged, tugging at her father’s pant leg. “Please Daddy?”
Sesshomaru scooped up his little pearl and set her upon his broad shoulder. “What do you think Mommy?” he asked his wife, quirking a brow down at her.
“Hmmm, well…,” Rin tapped her chin thoughtfully. “I guess a few times won’t hurt. But be careful, alright?”
Their daughter pumped a fist into the air, steadying herself by grabbing her father’s hair. “Yay! Daddy, let’s go! Let’s go!” she urged and tugged at the long silvery locks.
“You will be fine on your own, Rin?” Sesshomaru gave her a worried glance. Shinju whined impatiently for her father to get to the slide.
The mother smiled warmly. “I’ll be fine. Don’t worry about it too much. I’ll be nearby at the picnic grounds.” Suddenly, she perked up. “Oh, don’t forget about the cardboard. Try not to get hurt, okay Shinju?”
Shinju nodded frantically, overeager to go down the concrete slide. “I won’t Mommy. I’ll take care of Daddy too!”
Rin laughed cheerily. “Thank you, sweetheart.”
“High ho, Daddy! To the slide!” the little girl pointed in the direction of the famed concrete slide of the Codornices Park.
================
“WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!” Shinju shrieked, throwing her arms into the air. Sesshomaru, seated behind her with his arms securely holding onto the little waist, chuckled lightly at his daughter’s antics. The cardboard underneath them slid down the flat and smooth slide.
As they ended at the bottom of the ride, Shinju bounced about and pleaded for another go at the slide. “I think that it is about time for us to return to Mommy. We can come back after we eat,” Sesshomaru said, picking up his daughter and walked back up to the picnic area.
Rin looked up at the returnees, giving them both a soft look.
Shinju clambered down from her father’s grasp like a little monkey and loped over to her mother’s side. “Mommy, mommy! It was so much fun!”
“I bet it was. Peanut butter and jelly or ham and cheese sandwich?” Rin asked her daughter, taking out both and holding one of each in front of her. Shinju grabbed at the peanut butter and jelly combo and started munching happily on it.
Sesshomaru sat down on his wife’s unoccupied left side and reached into the basket for a turkey sandwich and a juice packet, which he placed in front of Shinju. “Fank fuh faffy,” she garbled with a mouth full of sandwich.
They all sat quietly and contently eating. When Shinju finished and grew restless of waiting for her parents to finish their lunch, she decided to chase the twittering sparrows, never straying off too far.
Rin watched her daughter giggling madly after the birds and leaned into Sesshomaru’s chest. She sighed. Rarely would they as a family spend time together on such a fine spring day like today. She closed her eyes and relaxed into his arms, which reflexively went around her body.
“It was enjoyable,” Sesshomaru said quietly after a moment of silence.
“Hmm?”
“Today with Shinju,” he clarified. “I apologize of not spending enough time with the both of you.”
“It’s alright. As long as you and Shinju enjoyed today, I’m glad.” Rin smiled gently.
Shinju ran back to them, a bright flush upon her cheeks. “Mommy! Let’s go on the slide together this time!”
“Okay, okay.” The mother turned to the father. “Shall we Daddy?”
“Aa.” Sesshomaru nodded, placing a kiss upon Rin’s brow. Shinju’s gleeful laughter surrounded them as the three of them walked hand in hand toward the slide.

Note: Sesshomaru and Rin are both legally married adults.
