When Zarc and his Yuus came downstairs for dinner, they saw what appeared to be a full nine course feast ready for them to eat. Yusho was nowhere to be seen, but the boys could hear him talking to a real estate agent on the phone in the garage.

"Eat up, boys!" Yoko said, beaming at the five boys as they sat down at the table. "There's plenty of food for everyone!"

Yugo immediately dug into his food, sobbing a little at the amazing taste. "It's so good!" he cried, stuffing his mouth with as much food as it could fit.

"Mom's cooking is the best!" Yuya proclaimed proudly. "I've never eaten anything that tasted nearly as good!"

"Mm, it's really good," Zarc admitted, eating almost as fast as Yugo and Yuya. He, like Yugo, had never really had a stable and reliable food source growing up, and he didn't want to miss out on any of the food Yuya's mother had made for him and his Yuus.

"So good!" Yuto agreed, smiling happily as he sipped his soup. He'd been able to count on Shun and Ruri's family to let him stay for dinner most nights so he'd been able to have relatively consistent meals, so he wasn't eating as fast as Yugo and Zarc. But the food he'd eaten before in his life had never been nearly as good as Yoko's cooking.

Yuri was the only one who didn't complement Yoko's cooking, but it was obvious that he too was enjoying his meal. Not once did he pause his eating, nor did the slight smile on his face ever leave.

Yoko was quite pleased that her heap of Yuyas was enjoying her cooking. She loved cooking for people, and seeing her food be so loved really warmed her heart. She was quite pleased to have a bigger family to cook for now. It was simply wonderful!
