It has been a while since Aka gets the chance to stay home and hang out with the family. Teresa is extremely happy when Aka suggested a full day with all of them together. Of course, it was last minute, so they still haven't decided where to go.
It is early in the morning, and Teresa is in the kitchen making breakfast for everyone. Teresa thinks about how the house is now livelier than ever with the two new additions that are Masato and Ren. Or as Aka affectionally called them, Knight and Trickster. Teresa did not understand where these nicknames are coming from, but they seem to fit the boys quite well. Plus, the boys seem to like the nicknames Aka gave them.
Teresa did not know how long she has been lost in thought while she senses Aka behind her. Teresa turns her head so she can see over her shoulder. Aka is still in her sleep clothes while Teresa is ready for the day. Aka also didn't bother to put on her contacts and instead wears a pair of glasses that are similar to Teresa's. Teresa never like the color contacts that Aka wore but knows that Aka is uncomfortable revealing them in public.
Aka lets out a big yawn as she walks up to Teresa and hugs her from behind. Aka's head rests up against Teresa's shoulder. Aka looks at the food that was spread out on the counter. Used to Aka's behavior, Teresa turns back to her work. Teresa takes a quick glance at the time on the microwave and sees that it is really early for Aka to be up. Instead of asking, Teresa unwraps Aka's arms off her waist and gently pushes Aka away.
"Wat you aking?" Aka slurred, still half-awake.
"I'm making omelet rice." Teresa answered.
Teresa grabs the eggs, which were already cracked, and starts beating them with chopsticks. In between beating the eggs, Teresa adds other things like salt and pepper and a little bit of milk. Teresa then processes to turn the stove on and place a pan on it. She grabs a bottle of oil and pours it onto the pan. She swirls the pan, so it is completely coated in oil.
As Teresa is doing all that, Aka goes to the coffee machine and makes a cup for herself. Aka unconsciously hums a random song that she heard somewhere and stirs the coffee to the rhythm. Teresa bobs her head with the rhythm as well. The sizzling of the eggs going into the pan breaks the rhythm, but the twins did not mind it at all. Aka takes a sip of her coffee and hums in satisfaction. Now with the caffeine in her system, Aka is more awake and is now ready to help Teresa make breakfast.
Without saying anything, the two moves around with ease. Not once have they clash into each other or get into each other's way. They both know where the other moves and grabs the things the other needs without say a word. They were totally in sync. By the time Teresa and Aka were finished, Masato and Tokiya walk down the stairs.
"Good morning." Tokiya greeted first as he makes his way to the kitchen.
Masato follows him with a tired 'good morning' of his own. Masato rubs him eyes as he looks at the food on the counter.
"Is there anything we can help with?" Masato asked.
Aka grabs her coffee and takes a sip. Her face scrunches up by the coffee being lukewarm now. Teresa huffs in laughter before grabbing the coffeepot from the coffee machine and pours some into Aka's cup. Aka mumbles a 'thanks' before making her way to the living room. Teresa finally turns her attention to the two winged hybrids.
"You two can help me set up the table." Teresa said as she grabs the spoons and napkins.
She gives the items to Tokiya. Teresa grabs a tray and starts putting the food on it. Putting as much as possible, Teresa hands the tray to Masato. Masato struggles with the weight of the tray but keeps it in balance. Teresa nods and pushes the two out the kitchen.
"I'm going to go wake up the other boys while the two of you are setting up." Teresa said.
Teresa watch Tokiya and Masato for a minute before walking upstairs. Teresa goes into the room where four of the six hybrids are sleeping in. Because of how many hybrids are living in the house, Teresa and Aka have to put the hybrids into two separate rooms, and since they don't have enough beds, they have to get futons for the boys. The room on the right is for Otoya, Tokiya, Masato, and Ren. The one on the left is for Natsuki and Syo. With Natsuki and Syo, they have no problems sharing a bed. The other four, however, has a hard time deciding what to do. In the end, Otoya and Ren share the bed while Masato and Tokiya sleep on the futons. There are times where Otoya would sneak into Aka and Teresa's room, but most of the time he stays with the other boys.
The main reason as to why Aka and Teresa haven't bought beds for the boys is because they have been busy with their jobs that they have not enough time to go shopping. That also means that they have to leave the boys alone for hours. Luckily, the twins have Natsuki, Masato and Ren as they are old enough to take care of the younger ones. Of course, Teresa is worried about Syo having a relapse when they aren't there, but Aka reassures her that Natsuki will know how to handle the situation if needed.
When Teresa opens the first door, she looks around the room and sees both Otoya and Ren still sleeping. Teresa stifles a giggle and walks to them. As she gets closer, Teresa can see the predicament that they are in.
Otoya is laying on top of Ren. Ren, clearly not bothered by the weight, is laying with his arm and leg hanging off the bed. His other hand is buried into Otoya's hair. For Otoya's part, he is laying facedown with his face smushed into Ren's neck. Otoya is also clinging onto Ren like Ren is his teddy bear. The blanket is tangled between the two boys. They must be having good dreams by the way their tails swish back and forth and their ears twitching. They both look so peaceful that Teresa almost feels bad waking them up, but she knows that Otoya would be sad if he missed too much of the day.
So, Teresa reaches her hand out and shakes the boys awake.
"Otoya. Ren." Teresa called. "Wake up. Breakfast is ready."
Both boys groan in complaint. Otoya buries his face further into Ren's neck while Ren throws his hanging arm over his eyes.
"5 'ore min'." Ren mumbled as he tightens his grip on Otoya's hair.
Teresa giggles and shakes them again.
"If you don't get up now," Teresa warned, "I'll have to tickle you two."
Aka, Masato, and Tokiya hear two shrieks from downstairs, and Natsuki and Syo were jolt awake by it. The hybrids were curious as to what is happening while Aka casually sips her coffee and scrolls through her phone.
