"Have you ever wondered, Momoko," started Ichigo Momomiya, "that you would be able to save this entire family from any danger if you turned into your Mew Mew form?"
"I think so," said the two year old Momoko, "but uncle said that I have to be taught alchemy in order for me to be stronger."
"Well, Edward's wrong," said Ichigo. Alisa came by and shook her head.
"I don't think so either, Ichigo. I don't think so either," Alisa said. Ichigo's little sister, Momohana, also came and shook her head.
"I'm only 17 and I know what's best, so tell Ed that he can't teach your little one alchemy until she's around five, six or seven years old." Momohana laughed and walked off.
"What's with Momohana? She's just become smarter than ever now," said Ichigo.
"Where's daddy?" asked Momoko. Ichigo smiled at her little one and spoke.
"He's with his friends in Central. He told me before he and the others left, 'We'll be gone for a month, so make sure this house is in ship shape, or else...' I asked, 'Or else what?' and Edward answered, 'Winry will kill me not you guys.' So he gave me a hug, Al gave me a hug and a kiss, and Winry waved goodbye and gave me a hug, and then they left to go to Central."
"Why not Al stay here and be with you two?" asked Alisa. Ichigo looked down at the floor and smiled.
"Because... we need some time off of family time and spend some time separately. Alphonse's probably worried about me right now. I should go call him now." Ichigo laughed and went to the phone.
"Don't think about Al right now, Ichigo. Calm down. You're just overreacting whenever you hear the name 'Al' or 'Alphonse.' Or 'daddy.'" said Alisa. Momohana laughed.
"What's so funny about that?" asked Alisa.
"Oh, nothing. It's just you.," answered Momohana.
"You guys, please. Momoko's asleep," said Ichigo, holding her child. Alisa and Hana (Momohana) awed at what they saw on Ichigo's lap.
"Ain't she a little cutie, huh?" said Hana. Alisa nodded and went back to work. Ichigo smiled and carried Momo (Momoko) upstairs.
Upstairs, Ichigo and Momo were in bed.
"Aren't you my little cutie?" whispered Ichigo. Momo mumbled in her sleep, talking about ice cream and candy.
"Aw, you want a piece of candy? I'll get you-- Wait a minute. She's dreaming about sweets again," Ichigo sighed and giggled.
"I... miss... daddy.... and uncle.... and Winry.." Momo yawned when she awoke.
"I miss them too, Momo," replied Ichigo with a smile.
"Are you gonna give them something special when they get back?" asked Momo.
"No, no. I'm not. They don't need special gifts when they get back because-- I don't know-- They just don't." Ichigo yawned. Momo smiled and got up.
"Well! I will make them something special for them when they get back! Kay?" Momo said. Ichigo shivered and giggled.
"That's great, sweetie," said Ichigo, "but I think--"
"Momo says! Momo says!" Momo shouted as she marched off the bed and went downstairs, still chanting.
"I hope they get back soon," said Ichigo.
