Yoshida Says It All

Jun 08, 2025

Yoshida looked in the mailbox one Sunday morning. "Yonatan invited me to dinner at his place. He said he wants to tell me, Ayumu, and May something," he announced to his mom and dad. "I'm gonna go fix French toast for us."

Mom chimed in, "I'll fix the eggs and ham."

Nobushino sighed in relief. "I'm glad I don't have to work on weekends." He cut on Animal Planet. "Ah, a mantis shrimp. Wonder what mantis shrimp tastes like?"

Kwesi told his adoptive father, "I wanna be an MMA fighter just like Mr. Ayumu."

"You did starch a guy for being a racist. You might be able to pull it off," Nobushino replied. "You and Yoshida like to fight."

Twenty minutes later, Yoshida rang the breakfast bell, whereas Kwesi put the syrup and passionfruit juice on the table. 

Kwesi is 5 and smart. He can name most animals and name most MMA skills. The fighting skills were by Yoshida, who felt bad for the fact that some of the kids at Kwesi's school are racists towards him. 

Yoshida sat down and started eating his breakfast. "I want syrup." He poured some on his toast. 

Kwesi asked, "Pass the syrup please?"

Yoshida slid it to his brother. "You dealt with anymore racism?"

"Not as much as I used to. My teach turned over a new leaf, which influenced the students to not be racists. I have a new friend, by the way. His name is Bailey Ashimura; his father's Japanese, and his mother's black."

Yoshida ate his ham. "Wonder what Yonatan wants to tell me? Hope it's something good."

..............

Yoshida and May were walking to her parents' house. It's 6:00 pm. "Wonder what your dad wants to tell us? Hope it's nothing bad. Maybe he wants to tell us his boxing stories..."

Ayumu was on the bus, ready to go to his parents' place. "I'm wondering what Dad wants to tell me. Maybe he's getting a div... Wait. He wouldn't get a divorce. Hope it's nothing bad."

.............

The 3 arrived at Yonatan's place at the same time. "Hullo? Yonatan? You wanted to see us?" Yoshida asked.

"Soon-to-be son-in-law! And my children! Come in," he said with glee. "I wanna tell you guys something over some twice-cooked pork with fluffy rice.

An hour later, dinner was fixed. "I have some news I have to share with you," he announced across the table. "I have skin cancer."

Yoshida replied, "You're not pulling our leg, are you?"

"I'm not. I have the doctor's note. I won't be around for long..." He let out a big sigh. 

May was about to cry. "E-excuse me..." She ran to her room and cried on her bed. Yoshida went upstairs with her to console her. 

Ayumu said, "I knew this would happen. All that sunlight messed with you, and now you're gonna be gone soon. At least you have life insurance. You don't have to be cremated. I couldn't bare the sight of cremation." He sipped his sakura lemonade.

"I'm sorry... I put all 4 of you, including your mom, in my will. I've come to terms with my death."
