Happy Father's Day
All was quiet at the inn as Sanzo read the new paper and drank his tea. Earlier Gojyo had said something about him acting like an old geezer which earned him a dance with the lovely harisen. Now Goku was returning earlier than expected while his other two traveling companions were still out.
Sanzo looked at the boy raising his line of view just a little over the newspaper he held. It became apparent that Goku was alone. "Did you Forget something? Go help Gojyo and Hakkai with the supplies."
But Goku did not leave. Instead he stood there with a wide smile as he held something behind his back. "You like crowns, right? I've seen you wear one."
Sanzo wanted to disregard the comment and return to his peaceful reading but something told him that Goku's observation was not just a random observation.
"Who doesn't like flowers, right?" Goku continued. "They smell really good. Not as good as food but they still smell nice."
By then Sanzo wondered where Goku was going with his ramblings and how was whatever point he was attempting to prove related to whatever mysterious item he hid behind his back. The priest had a bad feeling about it.
"Happy father's day Sanzo!" Goku happily exclaimed as he placed a flowery crown upon Sanzo's golden haired head. "Cool isn't it? The violets stand out on the gold. It's really shiny, like the sun."
Sanzo froze, time stood still and the newspaper slipped out of his hands cascading to the floor in puddle of black and white.
Goku extended his arms as if expecting Sanzo to give him a hug.
Then when time started to move again for Sanzo he stood up and guided the harisen to collide firmly with the top of Goku's head. "I'm not your father you stupid monkey!" The one with golden hair screamed with a look of indignation.
Goku's golden eyes became shiny and watery. He pouted and frowned. "But I don't have anyone else to wish a happy father's day to. Who will I congratulate? I used to say it to a rock before but that was no fun. Besides, you always took care of me!"
Just as Sanzo was about to reach for the violets atop his head and throw the crown away he paused. Was Goku in that much of a need for a parent that he would talk to a rock in the past? It was then hat Sanzo knew he had suffered a great defeat he never even stood a chance again the shiny chibi eyes of gold. Defeated he left the crown of violets where they were on his head and hugged the boy with the golden eyes.
Goku happily returned the hug. He was certainly glad he had someone to care for him.
Far away the merciful goddess smiled as she witnessed the scene. "I knew it was a good idea to entrust him to you."
