"I'm Nakahara Asa, you sent me this letter about my brother..." Asa pulled the letter out of her purse, and she handed it to Oda. Oda looked at it and he smiled.

"Asa... It's so nice to meet you. I have a lot to tell you. Please come in." Oda shows her inside, and Aki woofs.

"Hey down boy." Oda says, and Aki sits and stays where he is.

"I promise he's a friendly giant." Oda chuckles.

"He's a cute dog." She says smiling and she pets Aki gently.

"Papa?!" Chuuya yells as he comes from out of his room and runs down the hallway. "Can we go to Maggiano's now?"

Oda chuckles. "Yes, go put on your shoes."

Asa's eyes widen and she starts to tear up. She couldn't believe it. He looked exactly like Chuuya, a split image, it was scary.

"What is going on here?"

"I'll tell you everything over lunch."

Oda and Asa were sitting in the lobby waiting for a table to become available. And while they waited Chuuya was drawing with other children on the chalkboard in the restaurant.

"Your son... he looks like my brother." Asa says softly.

"Asa... he is your brother. That is Chuuya."

"...What? How is that possible? Chuuya would have been an adult now."

"When Chuuya was kidnapped. He was being experimented on by the government. But it went wrong and Chuuya died. But they were able to recreate him, he was abandoned as a baby in the cold. And I found him. And the Chuuya you see now is the one I've been taking care of since he was an infant. And I am sorry that time with your brother was stolen away from you. But I'm hoping... I can give some of it back." Oda smiles. "He's a sweet boy and he's very caring. And I know he will come to love you dearly."

Asa's hand was shaking as she held Oda's hand tightly. "T-Thank you... Thank you so much." Asa said crying. "I have missed him so much, so thank you for giving me the opportunity to be with him..."

Oda smiles. "You're family."

"Papa?" Chuuya runs over with the buzzer in his hand. "The thingy is vibrating." Chuuya says giving it to him, and Oda chuckles as he takes his hand. "That means our table is ready, so c'mon let's go eat."

They handed it to the host, and the host showed them to their table. Chuuya sat on the inside of the booth and Oda sat on the outside and Asa sat across from them in the middle.

"So Chuuya, this woman is Asa." Oda smiles. "And Asa is your older sister."

"Older sister?"

Oda nods.

"Why have I never met her?"

"Well buddy, things have been a bit complicated." Oda says combing his fingers through his hair. "And when you're older you'll understand a lot better."

Chuuya didn't really like that answer. But he trusted his father, his father never had a reason to lie. And he always did what was best for him, and Chuuya knew that.

"...Okay." Chuuya leaned up a little and he stuck out his hand. He pouted and his cheeks turned super red. "H-Hi Onee-chan... I- I'm Chuuya." He says nervously.

Asa's eyes widen and she laughs and smiles. "Hello." She says shaking his small hand. "I am so glad to finally meet you Chuuya."

Chuuya looks at Asa with wide eyes and he smiles happily as he looks at her.
