MHA #8, Saturday morning

Last night had been good. There had been dancing with two of his favorite people. Travis had asked him to visit Seattle. And then he'd brought one of those favorite people home with him for the night.

He'd expected to wake up with Travis. But when he woke up he was not holding on to Travis. He was not being held by Travis. He made a disgruntled little noise and opened his eye and didn't see Travis.

Well. He did. But his mind hadn't caught up yet that the small person on the other side of the bed was, in fact, Travis. At the moment his only thought was that he needed to get out of the bed without waking up the child who miraculously hadn't woken up yet even after the startled little yelp Stark had let out.

Whether tiny Travis would remain asleep after Stark half fell off the bed trying to remove himself from it quietly remained to be seen. The outlook seemed poor though.

[Expecting the one weetiny, obviously, but who is going to stop any others from knocking on a door, especially if there's breakfast being cooked at some point?]

“I’m a good helper!” Travis said, bounding to his feet. He was still being very loud. “Umma always says so!”

“Umma is Mom, duh!” Geez, Stark, that was like absolute basic Korean, keep up.

It was also one of like. Three Korean terms Travis used and would still end up falling out of habit by the time he grew up.

“Lots stuff,” Travis said. “I can open the fridge and push the button on the toaster and everything!”

“THERE’S A DOG!” It was half question, half cheer. Travis ran out of the room to go look for said dog.

Probie was going to be very concerned in a minute.

Of course not! She was a Good Dog! A professional even!

She came trotting to greet Travis, sniffing and licking him and wondering why he was so short. Travis plopped right down on his butt, giggling maniacally, and wrapped his chubby arms around her neck.

It was good Stark was enjoying it, because this little scene basically guaranteed that Travis would be too distracted to properly help with breakfast.

Or maybe that was a feature, not a bug.

“Does jams taste good with kimchi?”

“You don’t have any kimchi???” Stark that was like saying you didn’t have any air.

Adult Travis was very bad at being Korean. He hardly ever kept any kimchi at home.

“I guess we don’t need any. We’ll just have to have Dad Toasts.”

“I know that,” Travis said, in the sort of ‘what kind of idiot are you?’ Tone only small children could perfect. “Dad toasts are the toasts that Dad eats.”

“Ummmmm yes? . . . I’ve never had strawberry toasts.”

Travis’s eyes went wide. “You have all that? For breakfast??”
