When Daiki picked you up from the cafe that night you were still upset and he could tell. Even after picking up Haru, you didn't cheer up like you normally did.

So he tried to cheer you up in any way he could think of. While you were in the shower, he looked through the fridge and made something you liked for dinner out of whatever was in there.

"What are you doing?" Haru asked, reaching up and grabbing the edge of the countertop. He was trying to pull himself up so he could see.

"Don't touch the stove" Daiki said as he picked Haru up by the armpits and sat him in the countertop.

Haru looked at the cutting board with ingredients on it. "I won't. But what are you doing?"

"I'm making dinner" Daiki answered.

"Can I taste?" Haru asked, already reaching towards the cutting board for the little cut up pieces of food.

Daiki watched him put a piece of food in his mouth and nodded his head. "I guess so"

Haru hummed in satisfaction. "What are you making for dinner?"

"(choose whatever but something simple cuz we poor)" Daiki answered. "Mommy likes it"

Haru oohed and clapped his hands together. "Can I help?"

"Okay" Daiki answered.

After you got out of the shower, you were surprised to see that Daiki had made dinner, he hadn't done that in a long time.

You made sure to thank him a bunch and tell him how much you liked it so that he might do it again one day.

Then after some family TV watching time, you laid down with Haru in his bed until he fell asleep. After that you went back into your room to get ready for bed.

"You're still upset about the yearbook" Daiki said.

You gave a small nod.

"I'm sorry" He said.

That broke you.

You frowned and the tears that you had been holding back since your shower dripped onto your cheeks.

Daiki stepped closer to you and opened his arms. You immediately hugged him and broke down even more.

"I'm sorry" He said again.

You just kept crying, keeping your face buried in his shirt.

He hugged you and rubbed his hands over your back and arm. "I'm so sorry, I know you wanted so much more"

You nodded and wiped at your eyes. "Can we lay down?"

Daiki nodded and brought you over to the bed, laying down and letting you lay against him. He ran his hand over your hair.

And for the first time in a long time, you were able to fall asleep while he was comforting you.

-The next day-

At the cafe, you were covered in flour and sugar, trying to read the instructions on this recipe to make sure you were doing everything right.

"Going good?" Hana asked as she came over and looked into the bowl of ingredients you were mixing.

You smiled and nodded. "I think so and I hope so!"

She put her finger at the edge of the bowl and scraped a little batter off the side before tasting it. She hummed and then went to wash her hands in the sink. "Tastes good!"
