Izana's Precious Twin

Welcome Home!

Izumi stepped off at the front of the Sano residence. It was separate from the dojo and Shinichiro didn't want to trigger unpleasant memories from before and took him to their home instead. Mikey went in ahead to alert them.

Staring at the taiyaki he silently followed after. Inupi was sitting by the doorway and when he glimpsed Izumi, stood up and hugged him tightly. They were new friends and he already grew attached.

"You're here! You're here, I thought you died!"

"I'm sorry for making you worry Inupi. It won't happen again."

Inupi already had Takemichi giving him the grey hairs and now Izumi went missing. He was sure that gave him premature balding and wrinkles before the age of 30. J.K. we all know that Inupi would be a dilf till the end.

Izana was next of course and squeezed him till he couldn't breath. He let him hold him as long as he wanted. The collar and neck area moistened with drops of salty tears. Both of happiness and sadness. 

Eventually he let go and ushered him into the living room. Takemichi, Emma, Chifuyu, and the Mizo Gang he met a while back sat on the floor or couch surrounded by reports and photos. No one looked up since they were concentrating and thought it was Shinchin bringing food.

Emma raised her head to say something but was agape at Izumi hiding behind Izana and Inupi. This in turn caused everyone else to look up since her reaction was unusual. Izumi smiled nervously since he didn't know if they would be upset or not.

"Hi guys."

They teared up hearing him speak, as though it confirmed that he was here and it wasn't some kind of illusion or eyes playing tricks. Emma looked as though she wanted to hug him with her arms out half stretched.

He held out his arms allowing them to cluster around him in a circle of limbs and warmth. Izumi wondered how everyone all fit around him. He tried to wiggle his feet so they wouldn't go numb from standing in the same position for so long.

"You're not mad..at me?"

"Why would I be?!" Emma

"We were worried!" Akkun speaking for Mizo

"I'm just glad you made it back, okay?" Takemichi

"Yeah, what he said." Chifuyu

Inupi and Izana had moved around and started to gather up the various papers and pictures gently putting them away in shoeboxes and stuff. Shinichiro went to Mikey's room to talk. 

Emma brought him to the middle of the small sofa and they crowded around him again. They deserved an explanation at least so he started with jumping out the window. Quickly moving to walking some random square where people stared at the gown and slippers.

He moved onto meeting the strange but kind brothers who housed and fed him for the time being. Also gesturing to his clothes that he got from them. There wasn't much to say and he ended it with Shinichiro and Manjiro taking him back.

"Um yeah. That's everything. And I'm kind of hungry."

"Let's go out and eat!" Chifuyu

"I'll pay." Inupi

"We'll need to get Shinichiro and Mikey first!"

Emma exited as everyone else figured out their rides. Takemichi, Emma, Izumi, and the Mizo Gang would need to ride with someone else. She returned with the brothers and got everyone situated.

They went to a nice ramen restaurant  which also had really good takoyaki. Shinichiro had informed the police and investigators that Izumi had been found and the investigation was closed. Endless bowls of ramen came and left.

"What should we get for dessert?" Yamagishi

"Everything looks so good!" Takemichi

"Don't get anything too expensive! Inupi is gonna go broke." Shinichiro

"Let's get dorayaki." Mikey

"Mochi parfaits?" Emma

Unable to decide, each one got a different item costing extra. Dessert comes free with the meal but ordering different ones incurred a small cost of $1 to $2. Bellies full and not wanting to go home just yet, Emma suggested a mall with an amusement park next to it.

Apparently she went there a lot and there was a lot of fun shops and kiosks. Mizo middle split off and went to ride the roller coasters and other forms of entertainment at the amusement park. Emma dragged Shinichiro and Mikey off.

Chifuyu and Takemichi were already gone to look at some cool, weird thing they found. And so the only ones left at the entrance was Inupi, Izumi, and Izana. Inupi suggested walking around and window shopping.

Izumi was commonly mistaken for a girl but he didn't mind. The hair and outfit would make anyone think so. Izana death glared at a lot of guys who glanced at him or smiled at him. Looking for a second too long and he would have ripped their eyes out and sold them.

"Creeps."

Izana huffed. Izumi giggled and reminded his brother that they did nothing wrong.

"I mean, we're staring at a lot of people too Izana. I probably should have changed. It's kinda hard to walk in these."

He held an arm from each boy to balance himself and shift pressure from one foot to the other. Inupi noticed he was wearing wedges and they were similar to heels. He himself sadly had on sneakers today.

"I wear heels alot Izumi so if you want, I could help you pick a pair that might help."

"I bet you look super good in them too!"

"....yeah..."

The compliment really boosted his ego. Izana couldn't see Inupi as a guy who wore heels but if he did then he did.

"Here."

A shoe department store with styles for any occasion. Inupi was a little excited to have someone else that shared his interest in high heels. Countless shelves and mirrors lined the walls along with benches.

Izumi curiously watched him scrutinize and inspect some display shoes. Inupi knew what he was doing for sure. He spent almost 10 minutes going from shoe to shoe until he found one that would be good for a beginner.

"Try these, they're pretty comfy."

"Pretty."

A simple baby blue pair that matched closely with the shade of his ribbons. He brought over more boxes since he was guessing at the size. Izumi put them on, looked in the mirror and tested around the store.

"These are good!"

"Perfect. I'll take them to the register."

"Huh? But I need to pay for them."

"It's a gift so I'm paying. They're special!"

Inupi smiled brightly at him. Izumi agreed and took the bag from the lady. They moved onto the next one to build up a collection.
