"Oh, my nieces?!" he commented excitedly, looking at the babies resting on your arms.

"They're boys, Rin," you corrected.

"And yes, I'm okay, it was okay," you answered your mother.

"What are their names?" your mother asked and approached.

"Here's Keiji," you leaned on your left, referring to him, "And here's Keitaro," you tilted your head on the right.

"Kei, and another Kei," Rin looked at your husband, the actual Kei.

"Well, hello there, Keiji-chan, Keitaro-chan," your mother leaned closer to you.

"Oh, they have their father's eyes," your mother commented, "That's lovely."

"I hope they grow up as tall and smart as their dad," you said and smiled.

ou took a deep breath as you closed the car door with 3 paper bags on your arms. You walked up the stairs of the apartment and as you reached your floor, you carefully grabbed your keys.

Thankfully though, you heard the door get unlocked from the inside. You sighed in relief as the door opened.

"You're finally back," Kei seemed as relieved as you, "I heard the car so I figured you'd be back."

"They're too energetic," he added and helped you with the groceries.

"Mama?" you heard Keiji.

"Mama!" followed by Keitaro.

"Don't run!" you warned the two blondes as you watched them rush to your direction.

"Hey, hey!" Kei looked at the two race, "Stop that!"

"Mama!" the two ignored your warnings and raised their arms, eager to be held or at least an embrace.

Kei sighed and grabbed all the paper bags for you, freeing your arms. You crouched down at the twins and hugged them.

"Mama, papa made us dinosaur cookies," Keiji told you.

"Dinosaur cookies, again?"

"And Taro-chan ate my share!" Keiji added.

"Really, papa?" you looked at Kei who was busy arranging the groceries, "Wait, Taro-chan, did you get your brother's food again?"

"He won't let me borrow the ball, Mama," he whined, "I found that ball too!"

"What ball?"

"They found my volleyball in our room," Kei explained, "It surprised me too."

"Eiji-chan, you should share your toys with your brother," you scolded, "And food too," you looked at Keitaro.

"S-sorry," they apologized.

"Well, you know, mama even bought you toys," you told them, "But you better share."

"You bought toys again?" Kei asked and approached you, "Stop spoiling them," he reminded you.

"Says the one who keeps spoiling them with sweets," you clicked your tongue. You had your own ways of spoiling the kids every now and then.

"Mama, what toy?" Keitaro asked.

"Is it a ball?" Keiji guessed as you stood up.

"I'll give it to you only if you eat your veggies at dinner," you told them.

"I hate that," Keiji whined, he was the picky type and usually had less appetite like Kei.

"You're too picky, Eiji-chan," his brother laughed at him.

"Eiji's just like you," you nudged your husband.

"Taro eats anything," Kei commented and approached the two.

"Watch over them while I make dinner," you instructed Kei as you grabbed your apron.

"Hey, don't, don't eat that, Taro! That's dirty," Kei already started.

"Papa, give that back, please!" Taro whined as Kei confiscated his toy, "Papa!" Keiji just laughed at his brother crying.

You watched him and the kids as you tied your apron. He was trying his best to keep up with the kids' energy and be patient with the twins. You looked at them lovingly before making another meal for four.
