"I just wanted to tell you that I respect you. I mean everyone from the time we had to fight Kira looks up to you. I don't know how you do it. You raised a child that wasn't yours 'til years ago. You were there when no one else was for everyone I know. I mean when Okuyasu has a really hard time with school and everyone else was busy you flew over with Jolyne to help him. You just are so inspiring, but Jotaro once told me you almost died and still have the thing that made you almost die. You did all of everything you do with that thing?" Josuke told him

Jolyne set the cup down at the table and the three sat down.

They laughed and drink apple juice and hot chocolate. After Jolyne and Josuke started playing in her room.

After an hour (it's still like 10 in the morning) Nori got a call from Jotaro.

"Hey, Jotaro! It's rare to see you call twice in a day." Nori smiled

"Umm, I just felt like talking," Jotaro replied

"Oh do you want to talk to her," Nori said reading Jotaro like a book

"Yeah" Jotaro chuckled

"She's playing with Josuke right now but I can see!" Nori chuckled back

He went to Jolyne's room.

"Jojo do you want to talk with Jotaro?" Nori asked

"Nuu. I want to play with uncle Josuke." Jolyne said firmly

"She wants to play with Josuke for a while longer," Nori told Jotaro

"Can I speak to Jotaro?" Josuke asked

"Yeah! I'm giving the phone to Josuke," Nori told Jotaro

Josuke stepped out of Jolyne's room into the kitchen.

"Dad..." Jolyne said with anger and pain in her voice

"Yes, Jojo?" Nori asked

"I- I know what I want for- for my birthday" Jolyne smiled

"What do you want?" Nori asked with a smiled

"I- I want papa- I- I want him to stay. I- I want him to love you. You're- you two got married he- he's job isn't to leave... it's to love..." Jolyne said to her with tears leaving her eyes.

"Oh, my baby" Nori said as he hugged Jolyne.

Jolyne and Nori sat on Jolyne's bed as she cried. Nori started braiding Jolyne's hair again to confront her.

"Papa loves both of us dearly, he just needs to work. I miss him also, but I know that we'll never really leave you." Nori smiled

"Papa leaves all the time," Jolyne said crossing her arms

"Not like that Jojo," Nori smiled. "As long as they impact you in some way, even if it's a friend or someone you love. As long as you remember how they love you they can never leave forever. All you have to do is remember."

"You'll never leave right daddy?" Jolyne asked with another tear in her eye.

"I'll never leave you, but one day I'll pass on. It's the way of life. I won't be here to give you physical hugs but I'll always be there to give you love. If you remember the fact I love, I'll stay by your side, Jojo." Noriaki informed her

"So you'll never leave?" Jolyne smiled

"I'll have to leave one day, but I'll always stay Jojo," Nori said with a smile

The two hugged and smiled. Josuke walked back with the phone.

"Sorry for taking forever; Jolyne do you wanna talk to Jotaro now?" Josuke smiled
