Yori and Alice were now both 6 years old and a handful.

"Alli, you need to clean up your toys or you can't visit Yori" Her mother Retsu warned

"The child pouted and crossed her arms. my Yori!''

''Yes he's your best friend and what will he not think if he sees your playroom so messy? he will run away.''

'with a dramatic sigh the child walked to her playroom and picked up some clothes.

Instead of putting them away, she wore the too big dress over her shirt and shorts and tied the scarf arround her head.

Retsu eyed her daughter weary and went to make some snacks.

a half hour later momo arrived with yori.

''hello aunt Retsu,'' Yori bowed. ''Where is alli?''

''hey sweetie, Alli has punishment.''

''What did she do?'' Momo inquired amused.

That moment Alice walked in with colorful scarfs arround her head and waist and lipstick arround her and on her lips balancing on high heels.

''Alice Ukitake...what in the world...!'' Retsu exclaimed.

Momo tried to surpress her laughter and Yori stared in amazement at alice.

''Am I pretty?'' she twirled arround nearly falling.

Yori wrapped his arms arround her to steady her and shyly pecked her cheek. ''very pretty as always.''

''awww'' Momo smiled '' he's as charming as his dad.''

''without the short temper and scowl,'' tigeroku added.''hello Hinamori-hitsugaya-san''

Roru! you startled me! Momo breathed out slow and shaky.

"gomenasai," the orange haired boy grinned impishly. "I was cleaning under the table ."

"Alice, go clean up your room," Retsu sighed "and Roru, u will not help."

"fine" alice sighed dramatic and walked to her playroom followed by Yori.

"I hate cleaning," Alice pouted.

"Don't worry I will help," Yori comforted her. "Daddy showed me how to clean up in case I ever get a fukutaichou like Matsumoto-sama. "

"She's cool," Alice commented "but as a doctor's child I will never know the taste of sake" she added with a tearful sigh.

Yori rolled his eyes nearly similar to Toshiro and gently took her hand. "look, you just collect all your dolls and put them in the pink box and then the clothes you put in the basket and there you have the floor clean already."

"so much work," Alice sighed.

"If you want to achieve something you need to work for it," Yori commented. "please don't frown."

"Okay" Alice smiled a bit and tackled him to the ground. "you are the best!"

the boy blushed furiously and fled to his mother.
