DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN OURAN IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM
"Uh hello Mrs. Hitachiin," said Haruhi.
"Hello Haruhi, it's so nice to see you," said Yuzuha Hitachiin. Than she turned and glared at her son, "Alright, where are they?"
"Uh who Mom?" asked Kaoru.
"The girls, those so called daughters Hikaru informed you suddenly came into possession of. Where are they?" asked Yuzuha.
"Oh you mean them," said Kaoru, "Uh I don't know where they are."
"They're right here," said Haruhi motioning towards the two girls who had up and taken cover behind her once again.
"Oh my god, I should have know this was going to happen at some point!" moaned Yuzuha, "What are their names again?"
"Li Ming and Xing Xing," said Haruhi.
"What kind of weird names are those?" asked Yuzuha.
"Chinese," said Kaoru and Haruhi.
"Hmm well I'm sure we can come up with some better names for them," said Yuzuha.
"I kind of think their names are cute," said Haruhi, "Um we were about to go out to breakfast and than go grocery shopping for girls if you wish to join us."
"Breakfast huh? Well I suppose a little food wouldn't hurt," said Yuzuha, "Come along everyone. I have only a short amount of time before I have to be in India."
"Than why did you even come?" asked Kaoru fallowing the woman into the elevator.
"Let's go girls," said Haruhi trying to take the twins' hands. However both pulled back.
"No like lady," said Xing Xing.
"Don't worry, she's not going to hurt you," Haruhi assured her, "She's your grandmother."
"Ugh!" Yuzuha moaned.
"You okay?" Ranka asked.
"I do not wish to be called such a thing as, as, Grandma. Grandma's used to describe old people!" said Yuzuha.
"Oh there, there," said Ranka, "You know you could almost pass as your son's sister rather than his mother you know."
"Oh thanks, I guess," said Kaoru.
"Come on girls," said Haruhi trying to coax the girls into elevator. Both girls however refused to get in. "Why don't you go down first and we'll fallow?" Haruhi finally suggested.
"Me, alone with them?" said Kaoru looking between his mother and Ranka. Both were looking like they were hoping to kill him once they were alone. He quickly jumped out. "I'll go with you I think!"
"Are you sure?" asked Haruhi, "You're one of people the girls are afraid of." Right as the doors shut.
"Well we'll take the stairs and I can walk behind them so they don't have to worry about being near me or something," said Kaoru, "Come on, and let's go!"
"Come on than girls," said Haruhi.
"Up?" Li Ming asked reaching up towards Haruhi.
"Sure," said Haruhi picking up the little girl and holding her sister's hand.
"I want up too!" Xing Xing demanded.
"Well I'm sorry honey but I can't hold you both at the same time," said Haruhi as they walked down.
"Want up want up!" Xing Xing continued to demand. She was caught off guard when Kaoru suddenly bent down and picked her up as she demanded.
"Happy?" he asked.
"No no not you, Haru!" Xing Xing whined.
"Well she's occupied so let your Daddy hold you," said Kaoru.
"No like Daddy," said Xing Xing.
"Oh thanks," said Kaoru.
"Well you haven't been that great with them so far," said Haruhi as they made their way down the stairs. They wound up beating their parents once they arrived.
"Why don't you go get the car with the baby seats?" Haruhi suggested.
"Sure, sure, I'll be right back," said Kaoru heading out putting Xing Xing down. Xing Xing immediately raced over to Haruhi and flung herself around Haruhi's leg.
"Like Haru,' she said.
"Well I like you too," said Haruhi.
"Everyone likes Haruhi," said Kaoru heading out to get the car.
The minute he was gone and out of sight getting the car the elevator opened and Yuzuha and Ranka stepped out.
"Oh god, don't tell me that boy didn't abandoned you already," said Yuzuha when she noticed Kaoru was gone.
"No he's just going out to get the car," said Haruhi, "We made sure to get baby seats into his car for the girls yesterday."
"Oh really, the dummy went and did something responsible for the girls huh?" said Yuzuha.
"Uh, yeah," said Haruhi. She decided not to say that it was her and Hikaru who had made him go get things for the girls.
"Well are we ready to go or not?" asked Kaoru walking back in.
"Sure, uh Dad do you want to go with Yuzuha? Kaoru's car's a four seater and I think I should ride with the girls," Haruhi explained to her dad.
"Oh very well," said Ranka, "But no funny stuff now Kaoru!"
"Wouldn't dream of it," said Kaoru.
"Come on girls," said Haruhi as she lead the girls out, still carrying Li Ming and now holding Xing Xing's hand. Xing Xing still didn't seem too happy over the notion of not being held like her sister.
"Where are we going anyway?" asked Yuzuha.
"Well there's a little café I know of we can go eat at," said Haruhi.
"Oh where's the fun in that. I know of a lovely place that we can go. My treat of course," said Yuzuha.
"Is it kid friendly?" asked Haruhi.
"Uh no not really," said Yuzuha.
"Let's just go to the café than alright?" Kaoru insisted.
"Fine if that's your wish," said Yuzuha. She didn't sound too trilled of the notion though.
"Here we go," said Haruhi as she carefully strapped the girls into their seats, "Is it comfy?" Both girls looked at her confused.
"You asked if it was smelly," Kaoru explained, He repeated what Haruhi had asked in Chinese. Li Ming ducked slowly at his question while Xing Xing gave Kaoru a bold look and nodded.
"Okay, I guess we're safe to go," said Haruhi getting into the car next to Kaoru.
"You know you may still want to consider getting another car that's not more kid friendly as well," she mentioned to Kaoru as they started to drive off.
"Like what?" asked Kaoru.
"Well a mini van is usually a good idea," said Haruhi.
"A mini van?" said Kaoru, "Isn't that one of those commoner vehicles they use to drive around their overpopulated families?" Haruhi smacked him at that.
"It's not that bad of a car!" she insisted, "It's safe for kids, that's for sure. Look I'm sure if you did your research you can find a car that's safer for the girls than this. And there's nothing saying you can't keep this car too. It is something you're going to have to consider though Kaoru."
"Alright fine, I'll do some research on the matter," Kaoru finally caved in, "Is there anyway I can get you to help me with that?"
"No I don't think that would be a good idea," said Haruhi, "I don't know too much about cars. However we do have a friend who is more of an expert of on that matter correct?"
"You mean Kyoya?" said Kaoru, "I don't if I want drag him into this too. I don't want too many people finding out about the girls and me."
"Well seeing as how Tamaki found out, I'm sure it's going to get out to the others. That includes Mori and Hunny as well."
"Oh," Kaoru moaned, "Well Hunny knowing might not be so bad. He just likes being around small kids, just like the boss. Kyoya however, he'll just never stop giving me that judgmental look he's always giving me ever since, well you know."
"Yes," muttered Haruhi, "But at the same time I'm sure Kyoya wouldn't mind jumping at the chance to do some research into such a thing."
"Could you ask him?" Kaoru asked. Haruhi groaned, "what?"
"I don't know how much I want to keep getting involved with this Kaoru. Why can't you act responsible with your girls? Step up and do something yourself for them!"
"I know I need to, but as we just discussed, Kyoya's not too found of me over what happened remembered?" said Kaoru.
"Okay, okay I'll ask Kyoya for you," said Haruhi, "But sooner or later you're going to have to step up and do things for the girls on your own."
"Thank you," said Kaoru as they came to the café. Ranka and Yuzuha were already waiting for them outside.
"Hi, we're here," said Haruhi, "Kaoru can you help me get the girls out?"
"Huh, oh sure," said Kaoru. He walked over to Li Ming's side and started to undo her straps, "ready honey?"
"No, No!" Li Ming squiggled as she tried avoiding Kaoru's grasp.
"Everything okay?" Haruhi asked as she watched Kaoru tried to get a hold of Li Ming.
"Haru!" Li Ming shouted stretching her arms towards Haruhi who was getting Xing Xing out of her car seat.
"Little help?" Kaoru pleaded.
"Hang on," said Haruhi as she finished getting Xing Xing out of her seat. She carried the little girl, much to her delight, over towards Ranka and Yuzuha. "Can one of you take her real fast?"
"I don't know. This dress is dry clean only. What if she's wrinkles it?" asked Yuzuha.
"I'll take her," said Ranka eagerly taking the little girl eagerly, "Oh I've been waiting and waiting for a grandchild of sorts. I don't know if it's going to happen now though."
"Dad please," said Haruhi. She shoved Kaoru away from Li Ming who was more than willing to be picked up by Haruhi, "There there, all better. Let's go get something to eat."
"Where's the mater'd?" asked Yuzuha asked as they walked into the café.
"They don't have one. We just seat ourselves and then they come to wait on us," said Haruhi walking over to a big table tucked away in a corner. "Let's see, do that have high chairs or booster seats?"
"I'll find some," Ranka offered.
"Uh actually why don't I do it?" Kaoru insisted. He nodded at Haruhi before walking off to find something for the girls to sit in.
"Good to see him stepping up a little," said Haruhi.
"Hmm, too little too late in my opinion," said Ranka.
"Dad!" said Haruhi.
"I have to agree with you Ranka a little," said Yuzuha as she pulled out a towel and cleaned off her chair before sitting down, "Kaoru's made too many mistakes too simply make up for it by finding some sort of seat for children to sit in."
"Oh thanks Mom," said Kaoru coming over with the seats. He tired putting one of the girls in but both moved closer to Haruhi. Haruhi gave in and put them up in both their seats.
"So," said Yuzuha, "Now that everything is settled I can finally talk about why I came to see you Kaoru."
"You mean it wasn't to see your grandkids?" asked Kaoru, "Grandma?"
"Ugh!" Yuzuha groaned, "water please."
"Here here," said Ranka handing her cub. Yuzuha gulped it down and took a deep breath.
"Don't ever call me that!" she snapped at her son. She took another deep breath before she started talking again. "Yes I did come to see them, to see if it was true. And seeing as it is true there's only one thing left to do. I'm going to take the girls into my custody."
