Shika had been amping up all week for his big date night with Wyla. While he lent some of his advice to Emerson, as a couple (who have only just technically started dated) Shika really admired how honest the two were about their feelings. Even as 'friends' there was a level of affection, intimacy and comfortability to their relationship and Shika wanted that. He was becoming very confidant he could have that with someone like Wyla, and he was excited to get to know her beyond their previous run ins.

He was dressed rather snappy, especially considering he normally only rocked a hoodie and jeans. But he had big plans for their evening that began with a very fancy dinner. So he was wearing a nice, white button down and navy colored blazer with matching slacks. His hair was styled and parted away from his face, he was hardly recognizable. Kisa jumped when he came downstairs after getting ready, she had thought he was a handsome home invader.

So there he was, dressed to the nines with a big beautiful bouquet of wildflowers in tow. He checked his watch to make sure he wasn't late or two early (two minutes early), before knocking on the door.

To say Wyla was disappointed would have been an understatement. She had admittedly been looking forward to her date with Shika throughout the week (it had gotten her through some rough days at work) and to have it all come crashing down on her because her babysitter had mono was almost devastating.

Almost as devastating, apparently, as Bixley having had lost her favorite stuffed pony, which had her sprawled, back arched, in Wyla's lap as Wyla sat on the staircase in her family home, curlers in her hair and still decked in nothing but a robe as she was in the middle of getting ready when tragedy struck on all fronts.

She half-heartedly tried to soothe Bixley, wallowing in her own kind of sadness, when she heard the knock at the door. She let out a little gasp, realizing she had forgotten to call Shika, before her face fell completely. She wrangled Bixley up in her arms and carried her to the front door, which she cracked slightly as she wanted to spare Shika her immediate looks.

The door cracked open and sound came spilling out, a distressed Bixley no doubt, wailing and screaming. He could even see little feet and legs kicking through the slit in the door. He blinked and it took him a second to realize the door wasn't going to open all the way.

"Uh Hi, do you need more time getting ready?" He asked, trying to peek through the crack.

"Shika, I'm so so sorry, my babysitter called and-"

Bixley let out a loud wail that earned a wince from Wyla even.

"Bix, enough." Wyla said, letting out a sigh. "She cancelled and I can't leave Bixley alone obviously and....I think we have to do this another night." She said, clearly disappointed.

Shika's face fell, he felt immediately disappointed. But, he wasn't one to be easily defeated.

"Well, what if-" He paused for another scream. "Let me help, if I can help settle Bix...Let's all go out. The three of us." Shika offered.

"That's really sweet, Shika, but you don't have to do that. I mean...she's being a T-U-R-D tonight." Wyla said, though she did have to admit she definitely admired the suggestion. Not a lot of guys were too interested in her when they found out she had a daughter, moreover, she couldn't imagine any would be interested if they found out she had a daughter with a set of lungs like the wailing girl in her arms.

Shika smiled softly. "I don't mind, I wanted to spend the evening with you, I still do. I'm even happier to see Bix, the more the merrier." He pressed.

Wyla flushed slightly and couldn't fight the small, flattered grin on her face.

"You sure about that?" She asked, referring to Bixley's unrelenting crying.

"I'm very sure," Shika smiled before pressing his hand on the door. "Please let me in?"

Wyla nodded and stepped aside, letting the door ease open to let Shika inside.

"She lost her favorite stuffed animal, so she's having a night." She explained.

"Oh no." Shika began as he stepped in, closing the door behind him. "I'm sorry about your stuffed animal, Bixley." He said before looking down at his flowers and getting a (hopefully good) idea.

"Well Bix, I brought you these flowers. I was thinking, maybe you and Momma could find a place for these and I could look for your friend?" He offered.

Bixley looked up at Shika, still rather fussy but she gave a little sniff and at least paused in her crying.

"Flowos?" She sniffled, reaching for the flowers.

"Yes, I picked them out just for you. Do you like them?" Shika asked with a soft smile, offering them out to her.

Bixley gave another little snivel and nodded.

"They pwetty." She said. She glanced up to Wyla before thrusting them into her mom's face. "Momma, look, I got flowos." She said.

Wyla gave a laugh and sniffed at the flowers before nodding.

"Beautiful flowers. Should we go pick a vase?" She asked before turning to Shika and mouthing "thank you".

Shika nodded and smiled before stepping off to do just what he said. He had never been here before and didn't have the foggiest idea what he was looking for. But he decided to give it his best try, he began shuffling around in the living room where he saw some toys.

"So what does this friend look like?" He sort of hollered as he observed a few different toys.
