Omega19x: Ryou returned home with Yuki.
Omega19x: "Daddy Malik! Daddy Malik!" she bounced through the door happily. "Yoga class was so much fun! Daddy Ryou helped me do a hand stand!!"
ph33r my rod: Malik peeked in from the kitchen, having been in there for a while cooking dinner. "Really? You'll have to show me after dinner."
Omega19x: "Oh... that smells absolutely wonderful, Malik." Ryou walked inside, and kissed him gently on the cheek. "You've become quite the chef."
ph33r my rod: Malik smirked, continuing to stir at the pot of koshari on the stove. "It's all of those years of watching you that's done it."
Omega19x: "If that's all it takes, Yuki should be owning her own restaurant by the time she's 12." Ryou smiled. "Go wash up for dinner, little puff..."
Omega19x: "Okay."
ph33r my rod: Malik watched their daughter run off, smiling. "I'm almost done here, I've got a salad in the fridge, too."
Omega19x: Ryou opened the fridge and took out the salads, placing them on the table.
ph33r my rod: Malik finished up the koshari, spooning it out into a large bowl. "How was your day?" he asked, carrying it to the table.
Omega19x: "I do love the weekend. It means I get to spend more time out of the office and with someone even sweeter." Ryou smiled. "I think Yuki really liked the yoga class. Maybe you should join us next time."
ph33r my rod: "Sure, I haven't been to one in a while." Malik nodded and grinned. "I do have to stay in shape, after all."
Omega19x: Ryou nodded, and Yuki bounced into her chair. "Yoga is perfect for that... it really is."
ph33r my rod: "It balances out all of the cream puffs, hm?" Malik sat down and filled his plate with koshari, then passed the bowl.
Omega19x: Ryou took his fill, and passed it to Yuki, who also took some big spoonfuls.
ph33r my rod: Malik grinned at Yuki, watching her. "What else did you do at yoga, beside handstands?"
Omega19x: "Sun salutations! They're hard."
ph33r my rod: "I remember the first time I did one of those... took me about twenty or so tries to do it correctly, I think. Something like that."
Omega19x: "It's the part when you go down like you're trying to do push-ups. That's the hardest part."
ph33r my rod: Malik nodded in agreement and stifled a yawn. "Well, if you just keep trying, then you'll be able to do it. Right, Ryou?"
Omega19x: "That's right!"
Omega19x: "I didn't get it right at first either."
ph33r my rod: "And you see how good he is at it now? It just takes practice. Most things usually do."
Omega19x: (sorry/ phone)
ph33r my rod: (( 'S okay~ ))
Omega19x: (back)
ph33r my rod: (( WB :3 ))
Omega19x: "I know. I know."
ph33r my rod: "Just saying." Malik finished off his koshari, then leaned back in his chair. "...I remember one time, about twenty years ago, Ryou and I were trying to climb up a cliff. We didn't make it the first time, but we kept on trying, and once we finally made it, the view was spectacular. So really, the harder you work, the bigger rewards you get in the end."
Omega19x: "You climbed a cliff?" Yuki's eyes grew wide. "All the way to the top?"
ph33r my rod: "Allll the way. It was really high up."
Omega19x: "It was at a camp we both went to. We tried almost every other day to climb it... and at first, we could only make it up a little bit without having to come down. But Malik's right." he smiled. "The view was even better knowing that we had persevered."
Omega19x: "If I practice really hard, I'll be able to do yoga like you?"
Omega19x: "One day." Ryou ran his hand through her fluffy white hair.
ph33r my rod: Malik smiled at them. "In the meantime, though... you feel up to taking a walk? I need to stretch my legs out, and it's nice outside."
Omega19x: "That sounds great."
ph33r my rod: "Alright. Let's clean up, and then we can walk out to the park for a bit, okay?" Malik grinned down at Yuki.
Omega19x: "yay!"
Omega19x: Ryou started picking up the dishes and clearing them from the table.
