Stray Kenma

part 27

Kenma stood still as kuroo finished dressing him, he started to whimper as he noticed Lev wasn't here and they only got up early for daycare. Kuroo could see kenma was catching on, picking him up and taking him to the table for breakfast. "You are going to be such a big boy today" kuroo said, hoping kenma would do fun things and learn more self help skills with brays help. Kenma ate his toast and didn't say anything back, a nervous feeling left in his tummy. "You see hinata today?" He pointed out, hoping that would interest kenma. The child pushed away his plate of toast, picking up his sippy cup and drinking it. Kuroo decided that kenma was done. "Alright, you can have sippy in the car" kuroo said, picking kenma up and grabbing the childs bag along with his work bag. Kuroo had a bad habit of just picking up the boy, at his age he shouldn't be picked up as frequently. Kuroo took kenma out to the car, opening the back door and sitting kenma in his car seat. "Good boy" kuroo praised, buckling him in before closing the door. Kenma fussed some and tried to slip his shoulders through the straps but it was no use. Kuroo got in the front and started the car, as much as he wanted to stay home he had to take kenma to daycare so he could go to work. Kenma sat still finally, dreading daycare because he didn't like having accidents and struggled being around kids his age. Kuroo pulled up outside the daycare and frowned, getting out and opening kenmas door. Kenma teared up, shaking his head lots and kicking his feet. "I know bud.. just until Dada finishes work" kuroo said, getting kenma out the car and holding onto his hand. Kenma jumped up and down in a fit, he didn't want daycare. Kuroo picked kenma up to carry him inside, thats when the kicking and screaming started. Kuroo was embarrassed, walking in and taking kenma down the hallway where his cries echoed. Bray heard kenma before he saw him, glancing to the door as kuroo came in with kenma who was starting to have a meltdown. "I'm sorry kiddo.. please, Dada will be back" kuroo explained. Bray came over to try and help. "Oh i was waiting for kenma! Did you know that we got some new dolly's?" Bray said. Kenma screamed at Bray for a moment, his eyes travelling to home corner to check. "Yeah, they got new clothes and bottles too" Bray explained. Kenma stopped his screaming and some of his kicking to listen. Kuroo watched, relieved something was working. "Should we go find one?" Bray asked. Kenma put his fingers in his mouth and went shy, shaking his head to say no. "Oh? Well.. I'm going to go feed the baby dolly.." Bray said, starting to walk over. Kenma looked back over, watching Jay pick one up. Kenma quickly pointed at it, he wanted that baby doll. Kuroo slowly put kenma down, a little bit nervous for a reaction. Kenma wiped his eyes and went over to Bray, picking up a baby bottle off the floor and holding it up. "Botbot" he said, baby needed botbot like he would have at night. Kuroo took this as his chance, putting kenmas bag on the hook and walking out the door. Bray Bent down and rocked the baby doll, holding it so kenma could feed it. Kenma shoved the bottle in the baby dolls mouth, clapping his hands and turning back to show kuroo. Kenma lasted 3 more seconds on his feet before throwing himself to the floor, he had been tricked. Bray let kenma have his meltdown, he didn't want to interfere in case kenma was able to calm down on his own. Kenma stayed sobbing and kicking his legs in the air, he didn't want to be stuck in this place. Bray finally decided to step in, coming over to pick kenma up. Kenma didn't like that one bit, grabbing onto Brays arm and latching his teeth in. Bray gave a gasp and tried not to swear, pulling his arm away quickly. He knew he needed to wash it, put ice on the bite and write an incident report for himself. "Kenma‐ you can't bite-" Bray said, going to kenmas bag and pulling out his pacifier and blanky. He came back to kenma, handing them down to the boy before rubbing his hand over the bite that still stung. Kenma shoved the pacifier in his mouth, his loud cries had stopped since brays reaction made him go quiet. Bray walked to the other side of the room. "Hey piper- I need to step out for a moment.. kenmas bit my arm pretty bad and I just need to clean it up and ice it- I'll send someone in to help you." Bray said, not wanting to leave her alone with too many kids. Piper nodded, glancing over to see kenma was settled on the floor watching the fan spin around. Bray left the room, getting the lunch cover assistant to step in the room. Piper asked the lady to please continue the toileting for the children while she helped the other kids clean the room and get ready for morning tea. The lady rolled her eyes when she faced away, going into the bathroom and checking the list of children here today. Hinata was away sick and yamaguchi didn't come today so kenma was rather alone for the day with his normal friends not here. She started to lie on the toileting chart, instead of asking children in she would write they went or sat on the toilet. She stopped when she got to kenma, shaking her head because she wasn't cleaning up accidents after him today. The lady came out and found kenma on the ground, looking down at him acting like a baby on the floor with a pacifier and blanky in hand. "They should put you in the toddler room." She muttered, grabbing kenma and picking him up to carry him to the bathroom. Kenma was scared to see her, fussing some but she was holding him back. Kenma got very nervous as she chucked him up on the changing mat. "Stupid overalls." She said, unclasping them and pulling them off the boy so they were out the way. She didn't want to deal with the training underwear too, if he still needed those then he wasn't ready for toilet training. Kenma sobbed and suckled his pacifier, not sure what was going on but not stopping her as he was scared to act out against her. Kenmas eyes went wide in fear as she slipped a pull up on him, putting back over it the training underwear and then the overalls which she pulled kenma back up so she could clasp them over his shoulders again. Kenma was sobbing again, he was uncomfortable with his toileting that had been done for him. He let her put him on the ground, quickly running off to hide. She marked she sat kenma on the toilet and that was it, leaving the bathroom and the room to see if bray was ready to return. Kenma hid behind the doll house, curling up in a ball and hugging himself as he sobbed and tried to self settle. "Dada.. mama.." kenma sobbed to himself through his pacifier, he needed them to come save him from the evil lady. Piper was having a hard time, left in the room with ten children running around while she tried to clean up and settle a few. Bray came back into the room, he would write the incident report during nap time. Bray took a deep breath and called all the children to the mat, watching as they all came running and sat down like asked. Now the children were settled on the mat, they could finally hear kenma sobbing to himself. Piper quickly went over and bent down in front of kenma, holding her arms out. Kenma needed to feel safe, quickly hugging into her and sobbing into her shoulder. Piper picked him up and swayed the boy in her arms as he tried to calm down again. She didn't notice he was in a pull up, thinking the padding was just his special training pants. Kenma refused to let go, worried the lady would come back and get angry with him. Piper picked kenma up and put the boy on her hip, taking him into the bathroom. "Oh good boy kenma" she said, seeing it said kenma sat on the toilet. "You are such a big boy today" she praised. Kenma didn't feel like a big boy when he'd been put in a baby pull up. Piper made sure it said everyone else had been toileted, leaving the bathroom and going to set food up. She couldn't do it while holding kenma. "Hey.. since you're such a big boy today.. can kenma put the bowls on the table?" She asked. Kenma Clung to her before softly nodding, letting Piper put him down and giving grabby hands for the bowls. Kenma was so happy to be a helper, putting a bowl on the table at each chair. He clapped when done, throwing his pacifier to the floor. Piper smiled as kenma was proud of himself. "Well done kenma! Thank you so much. Can kenma put his blanky and pacifier in his bag?" She asked calmly. Kenma jumped to it, picking them up off the floor and putting them in his bag. Kenma froze up at his bag, crossing his legs over and fussing. He looked around frantically before covering his face with his hands. He was embarrassed to wet his pull up, standing awkwardly once finished. Piper didn't notice, gesturing for kenma to come over and take a seat  now she put a mix of fruit in each child's bowl. Kenma nervously came over, sitting down and looking at his food. The boy touched a lot at his overalls, making sure they weren't wet from his accident. Soon after the other children came over, starting to eat at the table. A child had an accident on the way to the table, having not been toileted by the lady when she came in even though she put she did take the child to the toilet. Piper went ahead and helped sort the child out in the bathroom, finding it strange the child had an accident not even 20 minutes after going. Bray came and sat with the kids to eat, encouraging them to try it all.  Kenma tried his watermelon, strawberries and apple, not touching the orange or mango. Kenma sat ever so quietly at the table, sucking his sippy and fidgeting around with the food in his bowl. Soon enough morning snack was over, children packed away their bowls and went off to play. Kenma didn't go off in play, staying sat at the table. Bray came over and encouraged kenma to get up, holding his hand to walk him over to the blocks. Kenma was walking funny, the pull up was starting to irritate his sensitive skin. Bray raised an eyebrow. "You okay kenma?" He asked. Kenma shyly nodded,not wanting Bray to know he had an accident because he was a big boy today. Kenma sat at the blocks and started to stack, thumb going straight into his mouth. Bray took some pictures of the kids to post to parents later while piper cleaned up from morning snack. The lunch cover lady was back, coming up to bray and telling him she was covering two hours of his room programing and then his lunch so he'd be out the room for a whole three hours. Kenma gave a startled cry as she came over, clinging onto bray. Bray frowned some as kenma didn't want him to go. "I'll be back kiddo.. soon darling." Bray said, giving him a hug before walking off. Kenma cried at the door when bray walked out, hitting a fisted hand on the door. The lady came over and picked kenma up, carrying him to the boom area and dropping him to lay on the pile of pillows. Kenma pressed his head into the pillow and screamed for dear life, feet kicking crazy and his heart beating quickly. Piper heard kenma crying again, quickly grabbing his blanky back out his bag and coming over. "Oh kenma.. I know.. bray will be back soon enough" She said, even she missed bray when he was out of the room. Kenma stood up and wanted more cuddles from her, sobbing and sucking his thumb. Piper offered lots of reassurance, petting kenma on the head and reading a book to him to help keep him settled. Some other children came over to listen to the book, giggling at the funny parts and pictures. The lady stayed on the other side of the room, acting like she was busy filling in daily paper work or hiding in the bathroom to take a child to the toilet when really she would put them in front the toilet and tell them to go even when they didn't want to so they'd stay in there arguing about it. Piper finally called them all to start clean up, starting that process while she thought the other lady was toileting the kids. She came over while kenma was distracted with some blocks, feeling the back of his overalls. Kenma quickly sat down, he didn't like that touch at all. She felt kenmas pull up was wet but shrugged it off, writing kenma was dry on the toileting chart so she wouldn't have to deal with the overalls. Kenma was feeling nervous to his tummy, hiding again behind the doll house. Piper noticed how kenma was hiding during pack up time. "Are you hiding because you need to go potty or you don't want to clean up?" She asked calmly. Kenma gave grabby hands, none of those were the answer to what he was doing hiding. Piper held kenmas hand and kept him with her while they cleaned the room. Kenma was awkward with his steps, he didn't like being left in a pull up let alone a wet one. Piper was watching kenmas odd moments, slowly walking into the bathroom with kenma. She read the boys chart to see he had sat on the toilet today and was sent only a couple minutes ago. "Do you need to go potty?" Piper asked softly to kenma, getting down on his level. Kenma touched at the front of his overalls and heavily shook his head. "How about we try?" She suggested, starting to try and unbuckle kenmas overalls. Kenma resisted, pushing her away and hitting. "Nuh!" He shouted, he didn't want her to see he'd had an accident in his pull up. "Oh.. okay.. sorry kenma" she said, having to respect kenmas wishes when it came to any toilet time since it was the childs right to refuse to go or even be undressed to go if they didn't want to try. Piper did the right thing, writing kenma refused on his chart so they could see that she did attempt to take him if there was an accident to occur. Kenma sucked his thumb and waited, taking her hand as she led him out the bathroom. Kenma watched the children make their beds, tilting his head and pointing to his bag. Piper went over and helped kenma get his sheets and comfort items as well as his sippy for his milk during rest period. Kenma held the comfort items and sippy, watching Piper make the bed. Kenma placed his cat plush, pacifier and blanky on the bed, clapping his hands as he was excited his area was set up. Piper gave him a high five, the boy squealing and giving her a high five. Piper called the children to the table, the other lady handing out fish fingers and broccoli on each child's plate. Kenma sat down and sucked his thumb, taking a fish finger straight as it was put on his plate. Kenma ate it contently, eyes glancing around to follow pipers movements. Every child got a cup of milk at meal time, kenmas milk went straight into his sippy. Kenma was content now, fish fingers and a sippy of milk was exactly what he needed. Children started to finish up their meals, putting their plates away and taking one more quick trip to the bathroom before rest period. Kenma finished his fish fingers and put his broccoli on the floor, standing up with both hands holding his sippy as he drank it and walked to bed. Piper let it bed, proud kenma was taking himself to bed without any complaints. Kenma laid on the bed, pulling his sippy away from he mouth to have some big breaths of air. The lunch cover lady came around, tugging kenmas shoes off and throwing his blanket over him. Kenma squeezed his eyes shut, the blanket going right over his body and head. Kenma remained very still, finishing off his sippy and popping his pacifier into his mouth. Kenmas eyes were wide open under the blanket, his tummy rising and falling quickly with each breath. Kenma flinched as the blanket was pulled from his head, so happy to see Piper. Piper tucked him in properly, handing him his plush cay and blanky. "Sleep well darling" she whispered, turning the music on using the ipad she had with her. Kenmas eyes fell into a haze as the lights went off in the room, suckling his pacifier more until he managed to fall asleep on his back. Piper did most the cleaning, so happy when bray came back in the room. Bray took over the cleaning and let Piper sit to write to the parents and post pictures of what the children did today. Kenma slept through most of rest period, waking as he heard some children at the table talking louder than they were supposed to be during this period of time. He stayed laying down, closing his eyes again to see if he could sleep longer. Piper was sitting at the table with the awake kids, drawing with them and trying to remind them to whisper since some kids were still sleeping. Bray was busy packing up beds and sending kids to the bathroom as they woke up since he knew when they woke they most likely had to go, leaving them half asleep on the beds normally left some kids having accidents in their half asleep state so he always encouraged them to go the moment he saw they'd woken and were hazy. Kenma couldnt fall asleep, inside his pull up was starting to burn and hurt from staying in it for so many hours. Bray saw some movement from kenma, quickly coming over and bending down. "Hey kiddo.. let's go potty" he encouraged, holding his hand out for kenma. Kenma fussed and refused to move, it hurt to even stretch his legs as he woke. Kenma eventually got out the bed, very wobbly on his feet. Bray kept hold of kenmas hand so he wouldn't trip over, walking him into the bathroom. Kenma fussed the whole way, refusing to walk more once in the bathroom. "Lets put you on the potty." Bray insisted, going to help kenma. Kenma spat out his pacifier and sobbed loudly, putting his hand to his overalls and walking away from Bray. Kenma started to hide in one of the mini stalls, hiding right beside the toilet as he crawled to the wall. "Oh bud.. its okay.." Bray said, this looked like a step back for kenmas toileting. Bray stood and read kenmas chart, no accidents but no attempts really to sit on the toilet or go. "Okay.. no potty" Bray said, not wanting to force and make it more of a hated thing for kenma. Kenma stayed on the ground against the wall, giving a loud cry when he started to have an accident. It hurt badly, the rash now irritated by the urine. Bray quickly grabbed the stickers, bending down and holding the book open. "Its okay- look kiddo." Bray said, still wanting to give kenma a sticker for trying. Kenma tugged at his overalls trying to get them off so he could take the overused pull up off. Bray was stressing, something was really wrong. "Does your tummy hurt? You haven't been potty all day bud." Bray told him. Kenma pulled at his hair and sobbed, his pull up not leaking but it was surely overdue for a change by multiple hours. "I think I'll give daddy a call.." Bray said, leaving kenma in the bathroom to calm down because he didn't want affection right now. Kenma sucked his thumb and stopped the tears as the burning stopped some, sniffling and staying sat not wanting to move. Kenma froze up as they lunch lady came in, she was now covering Piper for lunch. She came in and picked kenma up, putting him on the changing table and pulling off his overalls. Kenma sobbed and couldn't fight back as it hurt too much. The lady took kenmas pull up off, it being heavy and soaked. She took one look at how irritated kenmas skin was, deciding to just pull his training pants back over it. Kenma let out a cry, the rash rubbing against the fabric of his training pants hurt just as bad as staying in the wet pul up. She did kenmas overalls back up, sending him out the bathroom. Kenma wailed and stopped walking, standing awkwardly right outside the bathroom door. Kuroo picked up the phone and listened to what Bray had to tell him, he heard kenma upset in the background too. Bray explained how kenma had refused the bathroom all day and had woken up seeming very sore in the stomach because he was holding it. Kuroo thanked Bray for the call, telling him he'd be on his way to pick kenma up. Bray put the phone down and went over to kenma, handing him the blanky and pacifier before picking him up. "Daddy's on his way.. its okay" Bray told him calmly, walking kenma over to the teacher chair and sitting him in his lap for a cuddle. Kenma gave lots of noise of discomfort, still tugging at his overalls since anything touching at the rash was burning. Bray wished he could help but kenma refused to let him take the overalls off of sit him on the toilet. Lots of kids stared, confused on why kenma was crying like a baby and why Bray gave kenma so much attention. Soon enough kuroo was at the daycare, coming in and going into kenmas room. Bray managed to settle him mostly, a sigh coming out as kuroo came in. "Kenma.. what's wrong darling?" Kuroo said, holding his arms out. Kenma thrashed around and screamed to get out of brays lap, kicking and fussing to be picked up by kuroo. Bray quickly helped kenma to kuroo, standing up right away. "I'm so sorry, I tried everything to comfort.. stickers, comfort items.. he's just so uncomfortable." Bray said. Kuroo gave kenma a big cuddle, feeling him fuss around and wiggle in his arms. "Its okay, I'm just surprised he's been holding it all day.. can I try?" Kuroo asked, not wanting kenma to have an accident on the way home. "Yes- Please go ahead. Kenma wouldn't allow me at all today.. I can't force him to sit on the toilet if he refuses due to our policy." He explained, kuroo was allowed to though as it was his child. Kuroo took kenma into the bathroom, putting him down in front of a toilet. Kenma was practically begging for his clothes off, tugging at his overalls. Kuroo unclasped them and pulled them down, a gasp escaping as he saw how red kenmas thighs were. Brays eyes went wide, it was the worse rash he'd seen at daycare. Kenma cried as he pulled down his training pants, wanting those off too since it hurt. Kuroo was horrified by how red kenma was, the rash was extremely irritated. "How did this happen??" Kuroo asked, looking back at bray. Bray didn't have am answer, grabbing kenmas chart. "Hes refused all day, he wasn't left in any wet clothes at all. Hes in the same thing he was dropped off in- kenma hasn't let me take the overalls off so I don't know how- I'm truly as shocked as you are." He explained. Kuroo was mostly upset, how could no one notice the state kenma was in. "Hows he got a rash then?? It doesn't make sense." Kuroo said, picking kenma up and laying him down on the changing table to clean him up. Bray went back over the list of people who changed him. "Is it a reaction?? New clothes or training pants?" Bray asked. Kuroo shook his head, cleaning kenma up with wipes. Bray was quick to step in, handing kuroo a tube of diaper rash cream. "I'm going to have a meeting with the staff- clearly this is unacceptable and if somehow this has happened due to one of us I promise action will follow." Bray told kuroo, he didn't like how kenma had been left and how no one had known and it made him feel bad because even he didn't know. "Don't bother- he's not coming back." Kuroo said, grabbing out a diaper from changing table and putting kenma in it so he wouldn't touch the cream. Kenma kept sobbing, holding his comfort items and letting kuroo clean him up. Bray was heart broken, bending down and folding up kenmas overalls. "I'm truly sorry.. I'll cancel his fees.." Bray said, not wanting kuroo to be charged after kenma didn't receive the proper care needed. Kuroo finished taping up the diaper, leaving kenma Just in his shirt and the diaper before putting him on his hip and walking back out to the room. Kuroo packed up kenmas bag, making sure they had everything before walking out. The lady watched with her arms crossed, it wasn't her problem anymore since kenma was gone and she wouldn't have to deal with him again. Bray promised to find out how this had happened, still wanting wanting have a staff meeting about it. Kenma cuddled kuroo, sniffling and suckling his pacifier as he was carried out. "Its okay.. you're not going back." Kuroo insisted, he never wanted to leave kenma hurting like that again. Kenma was feeling better to have kuroo and cream to soothe his rashes. Kuroo put kenma in the car and buckled him up, kissing kenma on the forehead. Kenma fussed at the diaper, kicking his legs some. "I know kenma.. you're a big boy but you can't touch the cream." Kuroo explained, knowing well kenma didn't like diapers or pull ups. Kenma looked down at the diaper and didn't fuss anymore, it didn't hurt like the training pants. Kuroo got in the car and started the drive home, trying not to get teary as he thought about how much pain kenma must of been in. Kuroo wasn't thinking straight right now, clearly bray called because he knew something was wrong with kenma and he wouldn't call if he was trying to hide something like that happening to kenma. - will be continued on chotz2222
