Reiko agreed, and made no move to remove him. How lovely! He could focus on his children here without any family drama, or at least none he had to think about at present. Hotaru was shy at first, clinging to Mama's leg cutely before slowly toddling her way over, likely to greet her father- but was intercepted by his son, who was much more eager.

Haruki, my boy, look at you, growing up so fast~ He cooed. He was satisfied with the way they were developing- Haruki bold and demanding as a man must be, and Hotaru, timid and humble like a good woman. But he would not let his shy daughter go unacknowledged, and so took a step towards her too, placing a kiss upon her crown as well, with the risk that Haruki might demand his attention back in a tantrum.
