"Yeah, they didn't even let us in the room so ya didn't miss much. First seeing her was so magical however."
"It really was." Kiyoomi commented, smiling down at her. She calmed for a second before fussing. "She wants a nap."
I nodded, and he took care of putting her to sleep. Which took awhile.
I sat on the couch with the other two. I laid my head on 'Samu's leg and hung my legs over to arm rest. Tuna jumped on my stomach, making me jolt. I tried to hug her but 'Samu stole her from me before I could. Ma leaned over to greet her.
"She got fatter." 'Samu commented. 
I hummed obliviously, "I wonder how."
"Because you feed her when I'm not looking." Kiyoomi glared, joining us and keeping a baby monitor latched to his side. He handed me one as well, we were both very anal when it came to taking care of her.
"What? I would never?" I said, as if that were preposterous. 
"Ya fed Dinky growin' up too!"
"Ugh I hated that." Ma commented.
Kiyoomi snorted, I've told him about Dinky. She was our childhood cat. She lived seventeen years and Ma had refused to get a cat since. Kiyoomi found the name hilarious. 
"Yeah I hate it too." Kiyoomi glared at me, "It's bad for her."
Ma nodded wholeheartedly.
"She just wants a taste." I said, "She's livin' her best life."
"She's spoiled." Kiyoomi corrected.
"Very true." I nodded, "She thinks the baby's stuff is hers. We haven't really let her spend alone time with her yet."
"Yeah she's still so little." 'Samu commented, "She really is tiny."
I laughed, "Have ya never seen a baby 'Samu?"
He scratched the back of his neck, "I don't know, I don't remember."
I rolled my eyes, "Dork."
He glared me down.
Kiyoomi stood up, "I'm gonna start working on dinner, I'll leave you to it."
I smiled at him, "Thanks Omi-Omi."
"Yeah thanks!" 'Samu chipped in.
Ma nodded in response but he left before she could say thank you. I'm sure he knew.
I was excited for dinner. As cute as Ayaka is she is very exhausting. We explained the circumstances to the coach and Meian. Coach Foster didn't even know we were together, and I could tell he wasn't fond of the idea. He did admit however we were very compatible on the court so in that way it made sense.
In the end he agreed to giving us a month or two off. We just had a game not that long ago and wouldn't have one for awhile. He trusted us to make up for it when we came back. After all, we were crucial players.
I knew It would mess up the team's rhythm but it would also give the others a chance to exchange positions. I knew that was always a good skill to practice.
Ayaka's been crying throughout the night, which I expected. Kiyoomi's a fairly light sleeper so he's the first to wake up. I sometimes jolt up out of paranoia. She's usually just hungry.
She's been pretty easy to put to sleep but she has her moments, especially when she wakes up in the night. We've been pretty good at taking turns taking care of her. 
"I really like him." Ma said, making me melt.
"Really?"
"Yeah, I think he's good for you."
