Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aki nodded "Oh, I see." then he played some more with the other little boy.

Yuki was petting the little bear with the pink tutu as she looked at the other toys. She smiled when Sonja came. "There are lots of things here." She picked up a Polly Pocket set and looked at it. "Cute."

Yuki smiled at Sonja "Yes I like the bear. It is very soft and cute." Yuki was finished looking at the toys and put away the toys she was playing with. She looked for Aki to see what he was doing.

Aki's friend had gone so he came to see what girl toys looked like. He saw the tons of dolls and looked at them. "Wow lots of princesses." he said.

Yuki smiled at Aki. " Your friend went home?" Aki nodded "His name is Brian. He had to go home for lunch."

Yuki's eyes lit up "Really? For me? Oh thank you Sonja! I never had a toy before." She hugged the bear and went to hug Sonja.

Aki smiled "I get one too? Thank you!" He goes back to the boy section and picks up the truck Transformer he had been playing with and comes back. "May I have this one?" he asks.

The twins were delighted since they never had toys before for themselves. They always just made toys out of boxes and scraps. And as a slave, they could never ask for anything, for it would not be proper to want and ask for something, they were only to take what was given to them.

The twins were more than happy with what they received. "We are done. Thank you." Aki said as Yuki nodded. Her face was buried in the bear's fur, enjoying the fuzzy softness.

They went to the cash register so that Sonja could pay for their new toys.

The twins helped carry the packages since they had so many now with the books, CDs and toys. They never had so much fun. It was the first time they went to stores and never ever thought someone would buy them something for their own.

Yuki asked "Hot dog? Is that food?" she was hungry but never heard of a hot dog and remembered that there were many dogs in the town. Aki said "It is nice outside. I would like to eat in the park."

The twins nodded "We are hungry too." Aki said since they left the house without having breakfast. Yuki said "Oh yes I am hungry. Sausage with bread sounds yummy."

They followed Sonja to where they sold the hot dogs. They went to peek to see how the hot dogs were made and what they looked like from the vendor. The hot dogs smelled very good.

The twins followed Sonja to the park fountain and sat down. They opened their hot dogs. They smelled heavenly good.

Aki took a bite "Mmm this is very good. I like the sausage it is very yummy."

Yuki said "The bread is very soft and tastes good too."

They happily ate their hot dogs. Aki said "Thank you Sonja for the most wonderful days of our lives!" Yuki said "Yes thank you we had so much fun in town. We never saw a town before." Aki said "Yes and we saw so many things and got go try ice skating and hot dogs."

Aki said "We don't nap unless we are really tired." He was enjoying the new tastes in his mouth from the ketchup and mustard in his hot dog. He licked a dab of each one then took a bite of the hot dog.

Yuki said "If we are not slaves are we pets?" she wondered since she was not sure what they were since they had always been slaves or sometimes called pets since they were not entirely human. "Mmm I really like these hot dogs."

Aki said "I am excited to see the movie."
