Ryo had been looking forward to Christmas, even though it always reminded him painfully of his parents’ death. This year he had good reason to celebrate; he wanted to make the holidays happy for Bikky.


“It’s getting late, Biks. Better get to bed or Santa won’t come,” he told his foster son on Christmas Eve.


“Um, Ryo, Santa isn’t real.” Big blue eyes stared seriously up at him and Ryo frowned. This was something he hadn’t foreseen. Bikky was only ten; shouldn’t he still believe?


“Are you sure?”


“Yeah.”


“Well that’s disappointing.”


“Sorry. Didn’t you know?”


Ryo couldn’t help laughing.



The End

Thank you! It was an irresistible idea =)

That is perfect and shows that Ryo and Bikky occasionally have that role reversal.

Poor Ryo, he thought he could have some Santa Claus fun, but Bikky is just too wise. Sometimes, he's wiser about some things than Ryo is. It's probably easy for Bikky to see Ryo as a bit of an innocent the way Dee sometimes does.

Thank you!

Poor Ryo is totally flummoxed, he was all prepared to do the whole Santa Claus thing, and now it's pointless, lol! *pets Ryo* He's trying so hard to be a good parent, but Bikky isn't your average ten year old.

Thank you!
