I had recently become closer to Master Splinter. This was my 7th going on 8th month being together with Raphael and the others.

For the past few weeks, though, Raph and his brothers had been busy. Trouble was starting up again and (unfortunately) he was busy trying to save the world. I didn't mind to much though. Whenever he found the time he would give me a kiss or envelope me in a hug.

He almost never said the words "I love you," but I was okay with that. After all, he showed his love for me in many other ways. 

So I decided I would talk to Master Splinter. We started up meditation and although it took a while for me to learn, it was very fun once I got the hang of it. When we were together, we would share stories and memories. I taught him how to cook foods other than pizza and he taught me self defense and many other things.

Today, we were cleaning his room. For what reason, I did not know. He seemed to be looking for something. So I happily obliged to help out while his son's were out. It took about half an hour before the rat found what he was looking for.

He smiled to himself, and handed to me a box. It was dusty and had a few slight stains on it from being down here so long but I could tell it was once very beautiful.

"It belonged to my wife. I was going to give it to her on her birthday as a present. Now I give it to you." He breathed, happy and nostalgic.

I could feel myself start to tear up and cursed my feelings for being so weak. "I-I couldn't possibly take this from you!"

My friend and father only smiled and insistently pushed it into my hands. He moved to kiss my forehead with a fatherly warmth I hadn't felt in a long time.

"You are my daughter, (Y/n). And this is only something I want to give you to show you how happy I am. It is a token of my gratitude."

"But have I done? If anything, give it to April!"

He chuckled and shook his head with amusement. "You have shown my sons that even they are capable of being loved. You have given my most troubled son, a purpose. You, (Y/n), you have reminded me that there is still good in this world."

He then proceeded to push me out of the lair. I was confused and very very happy. Confused because I was being kicked out. Happy because I just heard the most heart warming words ever.

"Now go home and try that on. I'm going to send Raphael after you later on."

I was patiently waiting in was possibly the most embarrassing outfit ever. Splinter had given me a kimono. It was made of silk, that much I could tell. And I could only imagine how much something like this would sell for. If not for the fabric, then for its elegant and intricate beauty.

The silk was cold on my shoulders but warmed quickly; it almost felt like wearing water. I wrapped the long golden sash around my waist several times and tied it at the hip, closing the kimono. Sort of. It gaped open across my chest, the green and gold framing my skin and the slight curves of her breasts in what I hoped was an appealing way. It was so low, but my nipples were covered and maybe...this would entice the turtle?
