"Is Mei-Mei here yet, mommy and baba, I hope she gets here before I have to go to bed." Kiri asked from upstairs after having her bath and her pyjamas on.
"No yet sweetie, we'll let you know but go play, honey." Ming told her from downstairs hearing her giggling noticing her youngest daughter's panda ears had popped out because of her excitement about her big sister visiting for the weekend, she also had many questions about college to ask her big sister.
It was Friday evening and the Lee family had just finished dinner but excited about their bigger cub coming to visit letting Kiri stay up as it was the weekend so she could sleep in, if she wanted to hearing 4-Town on the speaker in Kiri's room guessing she was pretending to bevat a concert, because Mei had told her about when she'd went to her first 4-Town concert and how their mom had gotten carried away in her red-panda form but hearing the doorbell made Jin and Ming excited, opening the door seeing Mei hugging her.
"Hey mom, dad whoa who's having a 4-Town concert." she asked after hugging them.
"Kiri, she was so excited that she kept asking every five minutes, so we told her to go play." Jin told her making Mei giggle taking her bags upstairs to her room hearing the music seeing her parents had kept her room the way it was since she'd left for college, going to see Kiri impressed she was in her red-panda form
"Mei-Mei you're here, I got my red-panda form aay earlier than you did." she told her making Mei grin seeing this was true guessing it was fun not just for Kiri but also her parents seeing her nodding as she was tellijg her about kijdergarten makijg Mei understanding having to deal with Tyler's little brother being a jerk, telling her that Tyrell's big brother had gotten much nicer giving Kirinhope.
"Maybe but I guess mommy needs my help with temple-tours." Mei told her yawning surprising Kiri as she thought big kids had lots of energy hearing Mei saying her first week of college had been hectic, seeing their parents had made bedtime snacks so she was drinking warm milk which helped her get sleepy seeing Mei was tired as she'd gotten here so going to her room changing into her pyjamas lying down in her bed
That next morning, Kiri was tiredly beginning to stir after being up late hanging out with Mei hearing soft knocking getting up opening the door seeing it was Mei grinning, seeing she was still sleepy saying their mom had made them breakfast going downstairs entering the kitchen sitting at the table yawning which Ming got, pouring her juice seeing her surprised, that her big sister was drinking coffee wondering what it was like seeing othervadults like their parents drinking coffee eating cereal quietly, as her mom and sisterleft to do templle stuff and tours so Mei was in her red-panda form knowing the tourists loved that but Jin was staying home with Kiri unaware she'd gotten her paws in Mei's half drunken coffee drinkijg it, worrying her dad knowing lil cubs and coffee were a bad combo seeing her in her red-panda form being hyper hoping that Ming would get mad at him and Mei would worry or feel bad this happened.
"Can't catch me, daddy hehehe." Kiri giggled just as Mei walked in, stunned seeing her lil sister wild like she had rabies asking how this happened.
"She drank it from your mug, but we've gotta calm her before your mother sees." Jin told her
They were able to calm Kiri down, putting her on the couch as she was asleep by the time Ming returned, seeing Mei helping her dad cleaning up Kiri's mess hearing her stunned, after telling her what had happened relieved she was not angry.
"It's okay and at least she'll learn, what coffee does." Ming assured them.
