Attack of Zuberi

[Adofo]

Adofo: Yes.........you care more about your job than........you do about the ones that love you.......like me.

[Iri]

Arida's tail started to flick back and forth. "That's not true."

[Adofo]

Adofo: ..........I just want to talk to you without you thinking like an osain. I........I just want to hear you say i love you.

[Iri]

Arida flattened her ears again. Her tail lashed back and forth. "I love you," she murmured, her voice soft with affection. "I love you with all my heart and soul."

[Adofo]

Adofo: Arida............that's the first time.....in a long time.....you've said that without it sounding like a threat!
Adofo's eyes started to tear up as he held out his arms for a hug.

[Iri]

Arida scuffed her paws with embarrassment. Then without warning she leaped into Adofo's arms and embraced him.

[Adofo]

Adofo: I love you too baby! ........you mean so......so much to me! I want you to be the best osain you can ever be......but for me.......can you also be more like the baby girl i helped raise and watch grow everyday? For me?

[Iri]

Arida nodded. "I will," she promised. "I will."

[Adofo]

Adofo gave her a big kiss on the lips and held her close.
Adofo: Thank you! Grandpa loves you! NEVER forget that!

[Iri]

Arida arched an eyebrow. "And why would I forget that?"
