Uno," Eri said as she put her second to last card on the pile.
"Darn it! Izuku we have to stop her! She's going to win!" Kesseki shouted out. "I put down a plus two card! Izuku, it's your turn!" Kei was now wearing a special visitor provided by the government, that would make sure no one turned to stone, while at the same time allowing her to see(Albeit barely)
"I uh...don't have a plus two. Sorry Kei" Izuku admitted, drawing two cards.
"I win," Eri said, putting down her last card.
"NOOOOOOOOO!" Kesseki or Kei for short, fell down dramatically, before immediately getting back up, cipher as always. "Ok. Nice work Eri!"
"Thanks. That was fun." Eri said, her lips moving upward very slightly into something that wasn't quite a smile.
"Well as long as you two had fun." Izuku smiled. Honestly, he had fun as well.
Most of the games they tried to play together suffered from the fact that neither Eri nor Kei had played a game, ever. So Izuku would beat them easily. But thanks to the randomness and simplicity of Uno, they were able to play on mostly even ground.
"Again again!" Kei chanted. "One more time! This time I know I'll win!"
Kei, despite the whole incident with the villain using her and being homeless before then, was an extremely positive ball of energy. Which was welcomed in Izuku and Eri's lives.
GRRRRRR
"Looks like we'll have to stop to make food," Izuku said, hearing Kei's stomach growl.
"Oh! Can we have eggs!" Kei said.
Kei loved eggs. Not as much as Eri loved apples, but it was easily the girl's favorite food.
"Hmm." Izuku thought about it. I want to make something for her but I don't want to leave Eri out…
Suddenly he got an idea. "I got it! How about Tamagoyaki!"
It was both sweet and made of eggs! So they should like it.
"Yay! I don't know what that is!" Kei cheered. "Does it have eggs!?"
"Yes. You should like it to Eri, it's sweet." Izuku said.
"Can I crack the eggs this time!? This time I'll do it just like you." Kei looked at him with pure determination.
"Sure." Izuku smiled at her. "You want to help too, Eri?"
Eri nodded. And the three of them went into the kitchen.
A little while later
The cooking went rather smoothly. Inko was a skilled cook, and Izuku had picked up on a lot of those skills. (He did have a lot of free time growing up due to his lack of friends.)
Eri and Kei didn't do all too much for the most part. They cracked the eggs, Izuku later had to pick the eggshell pieces out, and they popped the air bubbles while they were cooking.
They mostly watched him closely while he was cooking. And the look of admiration on their faces as they watched him made him feel better about himself then he had felt in years.
