It’s been another week, so that makes about 3 weeks right? Mama and Papa called for the maids to bring us to them, so that’s where we are on our way to now. The maids wrapped us in our green and blue knitted blankets and started going to Mama and Papa. How do I know that is what is going on? Usually when the maids take us somewhere while we are this young, it is to our parents. The only other time we go somewhere is to the indoor garden that Mama takes us to every so often.
I am looking around the halls and there are a lot of statues, vases, and pictures. This is a very long hallway too.
We finally get to the end where there is a large door.
“The Princes have arrived!” Some guy shouted.
Come on, how many times do people have to shout around us, our ears are still sensitive, but we didn’t cry. I believe our ears are getting more used to it.
“Enter.” That sounded like Papa, he spoke loudly too, but it is okay when he does it.
They opened the door and like I thought Mama and Papa were both waiting for us, but there are some other people there too. They look like designers, are they here to measure us?
Papa takes Fu and Mama takes me. Yay, I get Mama time, and as expected, I am already tired. What is it about Mama that makes us fall asleep? Is it that she is our mother? Or is it something else?
“Come.” Papa said softly gesturing the people over.
“Be quick and quiet about it.” Papa said to them in a stern tone. They looked scared. He then handed Fu to them and they checked his size and then handed him back to papa. That was fast, am I next? Or are they going to assume we are the same size?
Nope. I am next. Mama handed me to them and they checked my size.
They wrote it down, now I am curious I want to know if we are the same size. I tried looking while mama was holding me. She is holding me tightly, I can’t move very much, I guess it is so I don’t fall. I gave up, I suppose I can look later.
“Go now.” Papa said in that stern voice.
Once they left, his tone changed like magic, and Mama started talking too.
“Awwee, what a good baby, you didn’t even cry.” Papa said in a cutesy tone to Fu.
“That was kind of scary, I have never seen Papa like that.” I said to Fu
“I am more confused than anything.” Fu told me.
“It’s the same for me.” I replied, we both laughed at Papa.
“Darling, did you see that? They laughed at the same time, how adorable.” Mama told Papa
“Did we?” we both thought.
“Well they are twins Haha.” Papa replied
They both held us for a while in silence.
“Let’s go walk around the garden Darling.” Mama suggested.
“Alright, I could use a break from work.”
“These two are so lovey to each other.” I said to Fu
“Ya, at least they aren’t fighting or ignoring each other though.” We both laughed again.
They took us out to the indoor garden where Mama brings us every so often. The flowers are so pretty. Mama gave us each a different flower.
“This one is for Fuyuki.” It is a white flower that looks like it is a rose without the thorns. “This flower is white like the snow, and is said to bring luck.”
“Isn’t that a little overboard?” Papa said jokingly.
“It is cute.” Mama replied.
“And this one is for Yukine.” It was a light pink looking rose without thorns. “This one is said to bring love.” and she handed it to me. It smells like roses too. I played with it for a bit.
Papa laughed. “Oh, is it because his name means love?” He said jokingly
“Maybe.”
Papa grabbed of the pink ones Mama gave me.
“Is this for me?”
“No.” She said with a smile and blushed
Papa blushed. “Well then.” He laughed, he grabbed one of the white flowers. “Then this one is for me?”
Mama grabbed his flower. “Nope, not this one either.”
Papa laughed and smiled. “Then which one is for me?”
Mama laughed and pointed to her heart. “This one.”
Fu and I both laughed. “Do these two ever stop flirting.” I said.
“I don’t know but Papa is blushing.” Fu said.
They shared a kiss again, and then both started laughing with us. I could see they were both still blushing too. Turns out, even though Papa looks tough, he is just a big softy, especially with his family.
A few days later, they called for us again. We went down the long hallway again.
“The prince’s have arrived!.” The same man is still way too loud.
“Enter.” Papa replied
They opened the door and handed us to Mama and Papa. Mama had me again and Papa had Fu again, but they switched. So now Papa was holding me and Mama was holding Fu.
Everyone left, so it was just us four again. And again, Papa changed his tone as soon as they were gone. I wonder why he has to be so stern to those people. I hope he won’t ever have to act like that to us.
“Babies, your Papa got you some custom blankets and clothes.” Papa said While holding me up from my underarms.
It is kind of weird calling himself Papa, he looks so proud of himself.
“Darling be careful of his head.” Mama said out of concern for me.
“It’s okay Honey, I know what I am doing.” I pulled me to his chest where I could see over his shoulder. The only thing I thought at that moment was, “Wow he is tall. I miss being able to walk.” I read somewhere that babies learn to walk around 9 months. Darn. I am am not even 1 month old.
He walked over to a box and put it on a table in the middle of the room.
“Here they are.”
He took out a blanket that was mostly blue with green letters on it.
“This one is Fuyuki’s.” He set it in front of Mama. How could he tell whose is whose? Do the letters say our names? Mama wrapped Fuyuki in his blanket.
“Is it comfy Fu?”
“It is unbelievably warm and soft, I didn’t think there was such a material that existed like this. I could fall asleep at any second”
I got excited for mine.
“And this one is Yukine’s.”
Papa took a blanket that looked the same as Fu’s out but had a few different letters on it.
He wrapped me in the blanket and held me. Wow, it really is soft.
“Fu?” I think he fell asleep again! I can’t blame him. I think I am.. Falling.. Asle-
