Marvels Greatest Single Father - 20 Relatable
The man that walked in was wearing dark blue jeans, a black t-shirt with black military boots. His black hair was cut short on the sides and back while a bit on top stuck up. He walked in with a slight limp and angry face. Then again it would be weird to see him not have some sort of injury or have a pissed off face.
As the guy who walked in was Frank Castle, The Punisher. A war hero who served his country well only to be let down. He had a beautiful wife, son and daughter. He didn’t have a lot of time with them but every chance he got he would take full advantage and made sure to spend quality time with them. But he came back to find his family get killed in a brutal shooting that was led by people he knew and considered a brother.
After killing the people who fucked up his life he made it his life’s work to stamp and kill every disgusting person he deems corrupted.
‘Even if it’s only been a year of me being a father I would do the same thing. Fuck just thinking someone wants to hurt Rose makes me want to go berserk. Even though I know I don’t have the heart to kill but with some training, I think I could do it.’ I thought while looking at Frank with a sympathetic
“What’s with the look?” Said, Frank as he noticed the way I looked at him.
I quickly shake my thoughts away and put on a smile to say “Hello sir what would you like to eat its now lunch. There are a few lunch option just look at chalkboard if you have any questions about them then I will gladly answer”
Frank gives me a simple nod before looking at the chalkboard and ordering “I’ll have the tuna pasta salad and a beef burger with everything. Drink wise orange juice”
“Got it, take a seat anywhere apart from the ones under the T.V and I should be done in a few minutes,” I said while walking to the kitchen
It didn’t take long for me to come back with a tray and putting it down on the table “Here you go, sir”
“Thanks,” he said before looking down at the food he had ordered with a shocked face but he quickly got back to being indifferent.
I smile knowing that my food was about to wipe indifferent expression off and maybe I’ll even see something unexpected. Standing at the counter I wait to see his reaction.
He picked up a fork and pierced into the bowl of tuna pasta salad. Then he placed it in his mouth and bit down. What I saw next had actually completely caught me off guard as I saw the brutal Punisher shed tears of joy as he gave a hearty smile.
‘I think I remember in the show he had a flashback that had an image of him and his family on a boat ferry around the Statue of Liberty. Maybe the tuna reminds him of that time. Either way, I’m happy my food gave him a positive feeling’ I thought while giving a smile
He continued to eat while reminiscing. Thirty minutes slowly eating Tuna pasta salad and burger he finally finished with a satisfied smile
“Thank you” He gave me a hundred bucks before turning around to leaving.
“Come again” I shouted happily to which he turns back and nods.
‘Finally another possible regular’ I thought
Looking at the time I leave to pick up my daughter.
. . . . . . . .
I was now with my daughter, Charlotte and Chloe. But it wasn’t just them I was also joined by Charlotte’s mom and dad. Her mom’s name Sarah and her dad is Derek. I noticed that Derek has been giving me the stink eye since the beginning he even tried to squeeze my hand during a handshake.
I quickly realized that he thinks that I’m in a relationship with his daughter. He’s probably super protective of Charlotte after the last failed marriage.
‘How do I sort out this misunderstanding without making it awkward’ Is what I thought as I took the lead in making the way back to the shop.
We finally get back home. I then see Natasha and Jennifer waiting outside with the added addition of Clint Barton also known as Hawkeye. I was pleased to see a new face but at the same time, I wished they didn’t come.
I then greet them and present my hand “Sup looks like you brought me a new customer? I’m Theodore Hunt”
Clint shook my hand and said “Nice to meet you. I’m Clint Barton but I prefer Clint”
Before I could say anything else Rose pushed pass me with Chloe.
“Let’s go, Chloe. I’ll show you Tee and Momma Tee” She said holding Chloe’s hand while pushing the door open.
‘Fuck I forgot about the Tigers’ I thought with some trouble
“Umm who is Tee and Momma Tee,” Asked Sarah
‘Shit’
“They’re my friends” Said Rose innocently
‘Fuck it, I don’t really care about how people view me. I only want Rose to enjoy her life but what if Charlotte gets scared of us and doesn’t allow Chloe to play with Rose. I’m over thinking I’ll deal with it if it comes to it’
I then walk in with everyone, I walk past to spawn in Tee and Momma Tee in the kitchen and clean them using the customisation box. With them clean I pick up Tee in my arm before jumps up into my shoulder.
Then I walk back to the storefront with a tiger cub on my shoulder and Mother tiger by my side. The room was quiet as everyone stared at Rose’s ‘friends’ with a startled look.
Rose grabbed pulled Chloe and said “Hi Tee and Momma Tee, This is my best friend Chloe”
Chloe cautiously put out her hand to pat Momma Tee’s head. Then Momma Tee moved her head around expressing her enjoyment.
“Hehe Hi momma Tee I’m Chloe,” Said Chloe with a giggle
Rose then said “Tee come down let’s go play”
Tee leaps off my shoulder and gently lands on her paws before rubbing her head on Rose and Chloe.
“Dad, can me and Chloe play in the garden,” Rose said while rubbing her face in their fur.
“Okay,” I said with an awkward smile.
“Thank,s Dad,” Said Rose before leading Chloe and her animal friends up the stairs.
After they left I saw Derek’s eyes had upgraded to a fiery hell and everyone else was just shocked.
Jennifer broke the atmosphere and shouted excitedly “Theodore I want to hug them too,”
Charlotte doesn’t let me answer and interjects “Why do you have a tiger better yet how do you have two tigers in New York”
