Summary
Kaoru Sakurayashiki had never imagined himself with a family. His own parents had been stuffy, with high expectations and strict punishments whenever he didn't meet them. While he was sure he'd make an effort not to turn out like them, one could never be too sure.
There was also the issue of there being nobody worth having a family with. Kaoru entertained the occasional relationship, but most never even reached the point of him calling them his "partner", let alone broaching talks of marriage or family.
The thought of having kids of his own never even really crossed his mind.
That is, until a flock of them made themselves known at S, and suddenly he was offering sage, adult advice, chaperoning trips, and had even earned himself the nickname 'mama', much to his chagrin. And of course, when Kaoru became 'mama', so in turn did Kojiro become 'papa'.
---
Honorary mama and papa of S become actual parents when Kaoru gets pregnant. The ticking time bomb of a baby on the way forces them to figure their shit out in a timely manner, even if they've done everything out of order.

Summary
from Kaoru 9:51 P.M.
It’s been ten years.
You forgot, didn’t you?Kojiro frowns at his screen. forgot what?, he begins to type, but his fingers still on the screen before he can get the full message out.
Ten years. Ten years… it rings recognition in Kojiro’s mind, but only very faintly. It’s been ten years since… what? Ten years ago, they were both 17. It couldn’t be anything like a friendship anniversary; they’d known each other far longer than ten years. Then, was it something they’d done at 17?
Ten years. Kojiro remembers something like a box, something like a—
from Kaoru 9:53 P.M.
You definitely forgot.
You’re definitely going to be late.
I’m opening it at 10, anyway.
Better hurry.—something like a letter.
“Oh,” Kojiro says out loud. “Oh, fuck.”
Ten years ago, at 17—before Adam, before Italy, before—
“Fuuuuck.”
Ten years ago, at 17, an optimistic, foolish, idiotic Kojiro had written Kaoru a love letter.
A love letter that Kaoru was now going to open.

Summary
“Science is meant to explain everything, Kojiro,” Kaoru droned on, watching the rain touch the ground, even under the streetlights, it appeared as if the rain completely vanished on the dark roads. Kaoru wondered if the rain was actually landing at all.
“But it holds nothing on the greatest power invented by life on this planet.” Kojiro responded quietly. Kaoru faced Kojiro, for the first time, with nothing else to refute. Drained of all meaningless facts and opinions.
“Choice.” Kojiro smiled.
Studying the science of mechanics, Kaoru thinks he can figure out any program and its function. But when it comes to the concept of love, it is the one thing he fails to compute. So, he theorizes from the very beginning.
(or, Kaoru and Kojiro fall in love, spend some time apart, and realize they've never stopped waiting for each other).

Summary
In the past year and spare change of teaching, Kaoru has met his fair share of people. Students, staff, the security team; individuals of all ages and personalities.
But none of them have ever looked like this: broad-shouldered, over one-eighty centimetres in height, bulkily built, muscled.
‘Shit,’ Kaoru thinks, as his palms start to sweat.

Summary
“Haruhi -” Kaoru quickly goes to scold her, but when he glances up at whoever made the poor choice of offending Haruhi, his words catch in his throat.
So do Haruhi’s, if only for a moment; the anger abruptly turns into recognition as she cries out gleefully, “Papa!”
Kaoru can’t even stop Haruhi from running over to the person, her happy, bubbly laughs trailing behind her, because said person is the one she inherited her green hair, deep brown eyes, and infectious smile from.
He - Kojiro, Kaoru realizes with belated shock - immediately drops the trash bag in his hand and crouches down with a big, enthusiastic hug as he hoists her up, his hands under her arms and swinging her a bit in the air. Kaoru wants to call out, to tell him to be careful with her, but he’s so paralyzed by the surprise of seeing him that nothing comes out of his mouth.
--
Kojiro and Kaoru are suddenly thrust back into each other's lives, years after their whirlwind romance that resulted in a child. Now, Kaoru has to struggle with nearly half a decade's worth of guilt and regret.
