Regrets

Brand New

Leo had a content smile on her face as she watched Yuki doodled in a colouring book. Raph was due back from work any minuet and it was her day off.

"Hey, look who's here." Raph smiled as he lead Catherine into the apartment. This was the old turtle's second visit and saw was happy to see them again.

"Hello Leona." She smiled and looked at Yuki. "Aw, look at you lovely girl, she's an angel from heaven isn't she, such a pretty thing." She smiled as she tickled Yuki's beak before sitting up to look at her granddaughter. "I'm sorry for turning up like this, I don't want to disturb you."

"Ya not, is she Leo?" Raph asked.

"Oh no, we're not doing anything right now, do you want some tea?"

"Don't be stupid." Leo replied. "Thanks again Catherine, it's really nice!"

Raph just sighed...

"If he wants his own plates he'll have to buy them." Yoshi said and snatched the box out of her hands.

"What is wrong with you Yoshi?!" She growled. "He is your son!"

"He may be my son but that doesn't mean that when ever things get rough he can come crawling back here! I mean it, Shen! He wants to stand on his own two feet then he can do that because that boy needs a reality check!" He shouted and went back inside.

Shen just glared at her husband's retreating form...
