"Shhh Tai Tai, you'll only be in your carseat for a little bit hm?" Trish cooed as she strapped him in

Hana was glad that Haru was happy

[Sephy]

Tai settled down for his mommy, but was suckling his thumb for comfort.

Haru sat in his sister's lap for awhile and asked her. "Did you talk to Tai today. I'm sure he misses you. I know I would miss you. If you were away."

[Anon17a]

Trish placed a pacifier in his mouth and kissed his forehead as she got in the car

Hana hugged her brother and smiled a little. "Well I miss him a little too

[Sephy]

Tai suckled gently on his pacifier while Ren drove them to the restaurant.

Haru nodded as he nuzzled into his sister.

[Anon17a]

Rin soon met them there. "Hey Ren, Trish and cute little Tai Tai." She cooed

Hana giggled as she kissed his head softly

[Sephy]

Tai waved to his auntie while he drooled on his hand.

"I'm hungry" Haru said to his sister.

[Anon17a]

Rin giggled as she kissed his cheek. "Hehe you're so adorable."

[Sephy]

Tai chuckled happily back to his auntie.'

"How are you Rin?" Ren asked his sister.

"Pancakes?" Haru asked back.

[Anon17a]

"I'm doing okay, Ren." Rin replied and smiled

Hana nodded as she went to the kitchen to cook some pancakes

[Sephy]

Tai was busy nuzzling into his mommy.

Haru went along

[Anon17a]

Hana let Haru do some simple tasks as she cooked

[Sephy]

Tai was getting hungry and whined.

Haru smiled as he helped.

[Anon17a]

"Shh Tai Tai, our food will arrive soon." Trish cooed a she nuzzled him a little bit.

Hana continued to prepare their breakfast

[Sephy]

Tai settled down at his mommy's request. He went to his auntie and sat in her lap for a cuddled.

One of Tai's old classmates worked at the restaurant.

Haru went to see if his mom was awake

[Anon17a]

"Aww..." Rin cuddled him closely as she gave him a few kisses.

Haruko was just waking up and stretching a little. "Good morning, Haru." She said and smiled at him

[Sephy]

Tai saw his ex-classmate and hid himself in his auntie's embrace.

"Morning mom. Hana is making breakfast" Haru told his mom.

[Anon17a]

"What's wrong, honey?" Rin asked as she rubbed his back.

"Is she? Well that explains that amazing smell as you open the door." Haruko said and giggled

[Sephy]

Their waiter was delivering their food, and noticed Tai. "Ma'am can I ask who this little guy is.

Tai only shrunk into his auntie a little more.

Haru hugged his mom real quickly with a happy smile.

[Anon17a]

Rin looked up at the waiter. "May I ask why do you want to know?" She asked back

Haruko smiled as she held her baby close and cuddled him. "Aww my little darling."

[Sephy]

"He looks like a classmate I went to school with, but he wasn't a big baby" The waiter said with a chuckled. "I'm sorry that must be rude." he told his customers.

Tai stayed hidden away.

Haru sighed softly while he nuzzled his mommy.

[Anon17a]

"Oh.." Rin noticed that Tai seemed to know this person and he didn't want it to be known that he was a baby. "I see, well you must've got the wrong person then." She said. "It's fine."

[Sephy]

The waiter left the family to their meal.

Tai slowly pulled away from his auntie.

Ren smiled and chuckled at his son. "Poor shy baby"

Haru was nervous about what he wanted to do next.

[Anon17a]

Rin smiled as she kissed his nose. "Don't worry, Tai Tai. We're here to protect you." She said

Haruko noticed his uneasiness. "What's wrong, sweetheart?" She asked as she looked at him and gently held his cheek in her palm

[Sephy]

Tai smiled happily.

"Mind feeding him Rin?" Ren asked his older sister.

Haru slowly and with a shaking hand placed his favorite pacifier into his mouth. He hadn't really showed any or his baby stuff to his mom and dad yet.

[Anon17a]

"Sure, no problem." Rin said as she began feeding Tai

Although they both knew about it from Trish's explanation. "Aww honey, does that make you feel better?" She asked as she cuddled him close and looked down at him lovingly
