Chapter 39

That night Toramaru tossed and turned in his bed, he hugged his tiger plush tight to his chest. He let a small sigh out before getting out the bed, he slowly walked to the window, he pulled the curtains, with the moon rays slighty lit the young boy's room.


Toramaru sighed at he looked at the stars "Mommy, what star are you" he asked himself.


Reo slowly opened the door to the younger boy's room "Toramaru" he whisperd. Toramaru turned around "Uncle, I thought I heard a fox" he lied.


Reo gave a small chuckle "Just like Seiya he always used to look at the stars, when he was caught out he always said he heard a fox"


Toramaru looked down "I miss my mommy" Reo looked down he stood beside Toramaru and looked at the stars "I know you do, I will always miss her" he put a loving arm around the boy's back.


Toramaru let some tears out "Im not ready for the funeral" Reo picked his nephew up and sat on the bed "No one is ready Toramaru, you have great friends, and you even have us"


Seiya and his mom slowly came in the room "Reo, Toramaru" Haruhi whisperd.


Reo loooked up "Honey, Seiya"


Toramaru jumped off his uncle's lap and ran into Haruhi's arms. "Its going to be okay Toramaru" she whiperd kindly as she rubbed his back.


Seiya looked at Toramaru "We will all support you"


Toramaru looked at everyone with tears in his eyes, before leaning on his auntie's shoulder "Come on you it's late" Haruhi smiled as she picked him up.


Reo tucked the younger boy in and kissed his head "Night Toramaru"


"Don't leave me" Toramaru cried as tears rolled down from his eye's.


Seiya looked at his parent's "I'll stay with him, you both get to sleep" Haruhi kissed seiya's cheek and smiled "Thank you sweetie" Reo smiled and patted his son's shoulder "Thank you son"


Toramaru slowly moved up to allow Seiya to get in next to him. "Seiya im sorry"


Seiya looked at Toramaru "Its nothing to be sorry about" he gave a small smile. Toramaru was trying not to fall asleep but his eye's were heavy. "You can sleep Toramaru, its going to be okay, Im here now" Seiya told him.


Toramaru slowly shut his eyes and soon fell into a deep sleep with Seiya by his side.
