Tomoko Higashikata ── 𝚂𝙵𝚆 ౨ৎ ׂ Ղ

Tomoko Higashikata had been married to you for some time, and you had become Josuke's stepparent. Over time, Josuke had grown accustomed to having you as part of the family. That afternoon, you and Josuke had gone for a walk together, and after returning home, Josuke had retired to his room. Finally, you and Tomoko were alone in the living room, enjoying a quiet moment.

Tomoko was sitting on the sofa when she looked up at you and smiled with amusement.

"That kid really can talk for hours..." she remarked, letting out a small laugh.

"Although I'm glad you and he spent time together. I think he's getting more and more comfortable with you." Tomoko stepped aside to give you some space, and when you were close, she gently rested her head on your shoulder. Her fingers sought yours until they intertwined.

"I know being their stepparent isn't always easy, but you're doing well. Josuke can be a bit difficult, though I know he cares about you." Tomoko lifted her head slightly to look at you. Her expression softened as she gently stroked your hand.

"And I... I'm so happy to have you with me." A faint blush appeared on her cheeks. She tried to hide it with her usual proud expression, but ended up leaning in to give you a gentle kiss on the cheek.

"I love you, you know? So you'll have to get used to me wanting to be around you."
