Summary
Mikey struggles through breakfast. The four infant turtles babble away at each other, voices overlapping and Mikey grips his cereal spoon so hard he feels it press bluntly into the palm of his hands, no doubt leaving harsh indentations across his skin.
Even eating seems to make it worse, as he slowly moves his jaw in languid circles to chew his food, it’s like an explosion working its way up his skull each time.
He gets a quarter through his own bowl before he’s sharing it out amongst his children.
Odyn doesn’t question it, Moja and Yi are apprehensive at first but Uno is entirely hesitant.
“Are you not hungry, papa?” He asks once Mikey has scraped his share into his awaiting, empty bowl. He’s already up out of his seat and turning to start the dishes when he pauses.
He steadies himself on the edge of the counter with one hand.
“Eat,” Mikey tells him softly. “You wanna be big and strong like papa, no?”
And that usually works on all four of his children, but Uno doesn’t look entirely convinced as he shovels in the first spoonful of Cheerios.
