Chapter Text
“Ouma?”
Ouma, who was wearing a Santa hat, turned his attention to the girl calling his name. And she did not look amused in the slightest.
“You’re wearing a Santa hat. There is a Christmas tree in our living room. You dressed Tiggles in a Santa costume. The house is covered in tinsel and Christmas lights. There are reindeer stickers covering our fridge.” She crossed her arms, raising an eyebrow. She almost seemed like a parent scolding a child.
“So? I’m just celebrating the Christmas spirit.” Ouma shrugged, taking a bite out of the candy cane that was in his hand.
“Ouma, it’s July.”
Minako came walking into the room, holding her sphynx kitten Tiggles. He was flopped over, as he always was, but he was wearing a tiny kitten Santa costume, complete with a fake beard and everything.
“Dad, why is Tiggles dressed up as Santa Claus?” She seemed more confused than anything. It was then that she noticed Ouma was wearing a gaudy red and green striped scarf and a cheap Christmas sweater with flashing lights.
“He’s… Santa Claws. ”
Upon hearing this, Minako sighed and left the room.
“Ouma, it’s nowhere near December.” The blonde sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. “We need to clean the house now…” She seemed more disappointed than anything else. Ouma simply huffed, puffing his cheeks out.
“Looks like somebody’s getting coal this year.” His childish pout turned into a smirk, provoking a sigh from his wife.
“Ouma, Santa isn’t real.”
“He’s real in my dreams, Kaede.”
