Leonard continued his search for his husband and found him. He was in the rec room, watching TV on the couch. He briefly wondered why he didn't hear Leonard calling out to him, but then just shrugged it off.
He walked over and sat down next to him and felt so much better as his husband put his arm around him, squeezing him lovingly. Leonard looked over at his husband Katashi Meshida. Leonard wasn't Asian, but that didn't matter to Katashi. He wasn't the traditional type (although in a previous reality when he was Kamiko's husband, he was very traditional). They often joked about his name. The name Katashi meant "hard" and his husband was anything but a hard man. Except in bed, Leonard thought with a smile. Now that they had been married for twenty years, they didn't have much of a sex life, but they loved each other enough that they didn't need sex. And when they did have it, they made it into a long romantic night. It was something that Leonard looked forward to. And tonight just happened to be one of those romantic nights.
Kamiko rushed down the street in the direction that she thought she needed to go, almost bumping into a young Asian girl on the way. For a brief moment, she had this strange idea that she knew the girl, but she was sure that she had never seen her before.
Yuki Meshida was almost back home, after walking from school, when she nearly bumped into a woman who seemed to be in quite a hurry. Not once did she think that the woman was someone she recognized, even though only an hour before, she was Yuki's mother.
