🕑 Added 2024-12-27 12:20:51 +0000 UTC"Let me put it on for you," Kasumi said with a gentle smile.
With delicate hands, Kasumi slipped the ring onto Keito's right ring finger.
Seeing this, Keito couldn’t hide his embarrassment and happiness.
His face flushed, and he instinctively turned his head away, as though trying to conceal his joyful smile.
The warmth and love surrounding them were palpable, making the atmosphere in the room even more intimate.
Watching the two of them, Karina and Kushina exchanged glances and chuckled softly.
They couldn’t help but be amused by their parents, so full of love, blushing yet radiantly happy.
The dining room was filled with an air of warmth and affection, a reminder of how precious every moment together truly was.
"Oh, right! Kushina, this is for you!" Karina suddenly remembered something and pulled out a small red box, similar to the ring box from earlier.
She handed it to her younger sister, Kushina.
Seeing the box, Kushina looked at Karina with a puzzled expression.
"What’s this, sis?" Kushina asked, tilting her head in curiosity.
"Just open it," Karina replied with a broad smile.
"Oh, Mom, this is for you too!" Karina continued, handing another box to Kasumi.
Kasumi accepted the box, her eyebrows slightly raised.
"What’s this?" Kasumi asked, her voice filled with curiosity.
"Just open it, Mom!" Karina answered enthusiastically, her smile never fading.
Karina then took out another box for herself.
The three women opened their boxes simultaneously, and in an instant, their eyes widened in surprise.
"This is...!" Kushina exclaimed, marveling at the beautiful bracelet inside her box.
The bracelet shimmered softly, adorned with intricate engravings and tiny sparkling gems.
Kasumi, too, paused for a moment, gazing at the pair of elegant earrings in her box.
The design was simple yet sophisticated, as if crafted specifically for her.
With a satisfied smile, Karina lifted a necklace from her box.
The necklace glowed gently, with a pendant shaped like a delicate flower.
"Since there were leftover materials, Reiji decided to have these made for all of us," Karina explained, breaking the silence.
"It was supposed to be just a pair of rings, but because of the extra materials, Reiji asked Uncle Zuto to craft a pair of earrings for Mom, a bracelet for Kushina, and this necklace for me."
Karina's words left Kushina, Kasumi, and Keito speechless.
They exchanged glances, astonished by the beauty of the items.
"So that's how it is..." Keito nodded slowly, his smile growing with pride for his daughter.
"Thank you, Karina..." Kasumi said softly, her voice brimming with warmth.
She gazed at Karina with affection, her eyes sparkling.
But Karina shook her head, her smile faint. "Don’t thank me, Mom. Reiji made all of this. You should thank him, not just me."
Kasumi chuckled lightly and nodded. "You're right. Next time, I’ll make sure to thank Reiji."
Meanwhile, Kushina was still staring at her bracelet, captivated by its beauty.
"It’s so pretty..." Kushina murmured, her voice almost a whisper.
Karina chuckled at her sister's reaction. "Reiji said the necklace and bracelet are also birthday gifts. Since he couldn’t give us presents before, he made these for us now, Kushina."
Hearing this, Kushina’s face lit up.
"Really? Hehehe, I got a gift!" Kushina exclaimed excitedly, bouncing slightly in place.
Karina smiled gently and added, "Kushina, don’t forget to thank Reiji, okay? Promise?"
"I promise, Sis Karina!" Kushina replied eagerly, nodding her head enthusiastically.
The room once again filled with warmth and joy.
The smiles on everyone’s faces were proof of how precious this moment was to them all.
