Silence was the thing filling the house in that calm morning, as the sunlight passed through the windows and touched every single room. There was only one person currently awake in the two story house, whose steps were slow and careful not to wake everyone else.
The blond woman walking carefully on the hallway, dressed in big white pajamas, stopped when she reached one door that was half open, and wrapped her fingers on the doorframe before peering inside. The vision made her smile, and she leaned against the doorframe in silence.
The band was in one of their scheduled breaks, and Mami felt satisfied about it. As much as she loved playing music more than she loved doing anything else, all of the girls had their families now. So, even if they continued working a lot, they had more breaks during the year to stay with their loved ones. That was the reason why Mami was feeling satisfied and refreshed that morning, looking at the three children sleeping inside of that room.
The older girl was 5 years old, and was sleeping on her stomach in a mess of raven hair, wearing yellow pajamas with a Pikachu tail and a small hood with Pikachu’s pointy ears. Mami swore that girl would turn out even worse than she did, the little one couldn’t see or hear anything that had to do with Pikachu or Pokémon or videogames in general, and she’d be running and jumping like a little crazy creature with batteries on her legs. She definitely couldn’t see Mami playing anything, she would jump on her mother without even blinking, demanding to play as well.
On the other futon, close to hers, were the twins. Two more kids weren’t in the plans, the idea was just one more, but no one was sad about it when it happened. The two identical raven-haired boys were 3 years old and were hugging each other on their sleep. They were almost always glued to each other. One of them wore a blue shirt and the other wore a green one. That was basically how it was possible to tell which one was which more easily, by their favorite colors.
Mami just kept observing her kids in silence, a smile playing on her lips. It felt great to be at home with them, and give her own mother some rest from taking care of her crazy triad of grandchildren. Those kids may look simply adorable and peaceful when they were asleep, but when they were awake everything turned to an adventure.
Suddenly, Mami felt someone approaching her from behind, and two hands snaking around her body and pulling her back gently. She looked over her shoulder to see the big mess of brown hair and cute cheeks that was Tomomi, her sleepy expression telling Mami that she’d like to spend some more time in bed.
- Why did you get up? - Tomomi whispered, leaning her head on Mami’s back - It’s early.
- Sorry. - Mami whispered back, moving out of Tomomi’s grip and passing an arm around her neck, kissing her forehead - I just wanted to check on them.
- Forgiven. - the brunette murmured with a smile, then giving Mami a quick kiss on the lips - It’s nice when they’re sleeping like this. We can actually see the angelic side of them.
Mami had to bite down on her lip to stay serious and silent. Those kids were just as random and crazy as their mothers, and the twins had a big thing for grabbing Tomomi’s legs while she walked and never let go. The result was the brunette trying to move with one child wrapped around each one of her legs.
Both women observed their children for a while longer, until Tomomi moved them both away from the door and kissed Mami again, this time more passionately. The blonde held her by the waist and just enjoyed it, cherishing the beginning of another great break from work to spend time with Tomomi and the kids. They deserved that after working so hard.
The kiss came to an end when Tomomi felt something pulling lightly on her pants, and looked down to see one of the twins, the one with the green shirt, rubbing his big eyes.
