after mk decides to try and rest again the clamoring in the kitchen ceases. he has a dreamless rest. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

when he awakes his stomach loudly grumbles. He was in fact hungry. Mk gets up and tries to sneak down the stairs unnoticed when he realizes nobody's home. he sighs of relief.

"its not that I don't want to be near them its just I don't want to hurt them." mk thinks to himself. In an attempt to rationalize his feelings he cycles through the memories of last night over and over. To rest his mind he tries to find something preprepared to eat, but all he fins is mei's ancient takeaway. Mk doesn't feel presentable but he zips up his sweater and goes out.  while walking down the street he sees the faces of all the civilians he strives to protect every day, they all trust him completely. Mk doesn't want to think about what would happen if just so happened to go too far one day but the thought still plagues his mind.

meanwhile at the shop Moh wakes up with her mouth gaping open and herself sprawled on the pull out couch Pigsy set up the night before. the sunlight warming her face for just a moment before bracing the cold autumn day. Moh dreamed of something pleasant that night but she couldn't quite remember what. She takes in it all with joy until her eyes wander to the coat from last night. 

"what an odd night.." moh thinks to herself with a sense of unease

she gets up and fluffs up her hair with her hands before tying it back again. Not knowing what time it was she slowly creeps down the stairs but to her suprise the shop is already opened

"I must've slept in" moh sighs to herself

just then pigsy spots her

"Hey kid! that bed must have been REAL comfortable to make you sleep in on your SECOND DAY ON THE JOB!" Pigsy snorts

"I am SO sorry boss last night was just a long night and I coulden-" moh clamors to form a response

pigsy chuckles

"just get to work since CLEARLY I need all the help I can get around here" he scoffs.

"wait weres mk?" moh asks inquisitively.

"take a big FAT guess! heck if I know these days" pigsy says turning around while slinging a cloth over his shoulder clearly worried.

the day drags on without mk and his help.

"he brought so much energy to the table" moh sighs.

just the dinner rush almost begins the doorbell rings

"guess whos backk!" mk yells joyfully with two bags in his hand

"WHY I OUTTA FIRE YOU FOR RUNNING OF LIKE THAT MK" pigsy says rattling mk around.

 "good to see you too pigsy" mk laughs.

mk then turns to moh smiling.

"how about you help me with these snacks?" mk says holding up the bags

moh is kinda confused but goes with it.

"why not! I mean I DID help with your shift" moh says teasingly
