"Alright Listener, let us know if there's anything you like at all, alright?"
"Ok," They were at a local mall that thankfully wasn't to busy at the moment to bring Iruka shopping.
"Mr Zashi, what do I get?"
"We can start with a different room colour,"
"Can change?"
"Only if you want to kiddo."
"Mhm w-want." And so to the paint store they went.
=========
"Mr Eraser?"
"You can call me Aizawa kiddo,"
"Mr Zawa?"
"Ya kiddo?"
"Can we get the kitty?" Iruka held up a purple stuffed cat.
"Sure we can, let's go find Zashi so we can put it in the cart." The little girl nodded and happily grabbed onto Shouta's hand.
==========
"Theres a nice noodle store here, you up for that kiddo?" They had, what Hizashi would call a successful shopping trip. Granted t was the blond that was dragging the brunettes around. Iruka was happy (ignoring the flinches and grimaces at the loud noise) so Shouta couldn't complain to much.
"With soup?"
"Definitely with soup."
When they arrived, the restaurant itself wasn't exactly packed but there were a few families near the back as well as a few other customers. Shouta led them to the emptier part hoping to not overwhelm Iruka too much.
A waitress came over and handed Iruka a kids menu to pick from. The two adults were very grateful for the pictures, making it easier to help her choose her own meal. When their meal did eventually arrive, Iruka looked curiously at the two sticks her guardians were using. Her food was served with a fork instead.
"Mr Zawa what are those?"
"Their chopsticks kiddo,"
"Can-can I try?" Shouta nodded and handed them to her. Iruka looked at Hizashi for reference and fumbled with them, occasionally dropping them on the table. Eventually both chopsticks were gripped in a fist.
"It takes a while to learn how to use them, we can try some more at home but right now we should eat our noodles,"
"Oh ok-ok," She handed Shouta back his chopsticks and started to twirl her own noodles with her fork.
Hizashi noticed how Iruka was easily distracted. It happened more during lunch. He was just about done with his own food when he looked at her.
"Listener are you ok there?" Iruka had her eyes squeezed shut.
"Mr-Mr Zashi, is real-really bright,"
"Oh-oh ok, why don't we step out for a little bit," She nodded a little but made no effort to move. "Alright I'm gonna pick you up ok?" Another nod. Shouta gave them a look and nodded before Hizashi walked out of the restaurant.
"Hey Listener do you want to try opening your eyes now?"
"Is still br-bright Mr Zashi,"
"Alright, there's a bench and I'm going to put you down so I can help you ok?" Iruka nodded and once she had been safely deposited onto the bench he sifted through his pants pockets and pulled out his extra pair of sunglasses. "I'm putting some sunglasses on you Listener, alright?" Hizashi could see how her closed eyes relaxed slightly as the oversized glasses were placed on her head.
