Akira hadn't rested very well. Cirrus and Otomeken latched to her all night and her nightmares made it hard. She sat up in the bed as the sun rose casting the land in yellows, reds and oranges in the ealy morning light. Today was the day. The day she was gonig to bury her children. Her twins. Mizuko and Kazeko. She felt sick as she got out of the bed. "I need a shower." She said simply to the two who were probably just going to ask her a million are you alrights and she didn't want to hear it. Ofcorse she wasn't alright.
Preperations for the funeral had been seen to by the hokage and the boys had been arranged to be buried where the rest of Akira's clan had been buried. There wasn't going to be a viewing or a church service. Akira Cirrus and Otomeken were the only 3 to have anythnig to do with them so anything that was going to be said could be said at the cementary. Chairs had been set up and the small coffins were set and ready to be taken to the grave site.

Otomeken simply nodded to Akira's words - she wasn't stupid enough to ask. She knew all to well that one was never truely alright after the death of someone so close, and figured that it was only worse for Akira to be burrying her children than it was for Otomeken to burry a parent...
She waited for Akira to go into the washroom, and then turned to Cirrus as they lay in the bed. "You should try to get some more sleep Cirrus, she's going to need your support through all of this. I'll make you both some breakfast," she said getting out of the bed...

"I can't sleep now," Cirrus said, sitting up. He looked over at the bathroom and back to Otomeken. ".......thanks."

Akira took her time in the bathroom. They'd hear her cry a few times well she was in tehre but she grew quite. She stepped out in the towel. Newer and old scars showing on her legs, shoulders and arms. "Where are the cloths you bought?" Akira asked Otomeken.

Otomeken set down the pan she was cooking on for Cirrus to dish out onto plates, and she grabbed the box out of the shopping bag and stepped into the bathroom with Akira. The dress she had bought her had a silk ribbon that needed to be tied at the back, and Akira would probably need her help for that part at least... Well... it would make it easier with the help at any rate...

Cirrus looked over. "Is there some clothing for me? I can check my closet I guess," he said.

Akira made a face when Otomeken pulled out a dress. She didn't want to wear it. She wanted nothing to do with it. "Is this a joke." She said a little bitter but then just sighed. "What ever." She let Otomeken dress her. Even Akira wasn't use to the scar running down her front yet but she pretended like she didn't care as she dropped her towel.

"Like I'd put you through that," Otomeken said and pulled out the slick black pants that went on underneath the dress-like top...
She stuck her head out the bathroom door for a second. "Same bag," she said to Cirrus before returning her attention to Akira. Like Akira's, Cirrus would find black pants, shoes, an ash grey shirt and black tie, sized as best she could to fit him. At the very least, Otomeken certainly spared no expenses and got silk for them...

Cirrus silently got dressed, tightening his tie and waiting for the other two to emerge.

Akira pulled on the pants and let Otomeken tie the back of her shirt. It wasn't a dress but it did make her look like a girl. She ignored this fact and started to brush her hair as she walked out of the bathroom with it still down. She paused as she looked at Cirrus in his almost full suit.

Otomeken walked over to Cirrus and straighted his tie for him by touch. "You're welcome," she said very quietly. "Thank you for not hating me," she said and started to dish out their food...

Cirrus bit his lip and looked away. "You look nice, Akira," he said, though the emotion didnt' quite reach hsi voice.

She did look nice. But she didn't want to hear it. She turned away from him and sat down at her place at the table. She pulled the long part of her hair back and rolled it into a bun and pulled bakc the long hair in the front asweel so there was no hair in her face.

Otomeken touched Cirus' should and smiled at him, her silent way of saying that he did as well. Afterall, what kind of compliment is that - coming from a blind woman, if she were to actually speak it.
Otomeken dished out the food, and sat across from Cirrus and Akira. "Akira... I'll have to go back to my house to get cleaned up, and find some appropriate clothing," she said, making sure that Akira would allow her out of her sight again...

Cirrus reached out and took hold of akira's hand.
