''thank you for taking him off my hands for today.'' jin stands at the door, sheepishly tucking his hands into the pockets of his trousers, glasses perched on the tip of his nose before adjusting them.
waving a hand, ''don't be silly, i was missing this little guy. plus, it was getting boring in this house myself, ryomen is still out at work.'' you shifted the small boy clinging onto your side like a tree monkey,
jin's hands switched at his side as his phone rung, swallowing hard. ''im sorry i couldn't stay a little longer, and im sorry if it looked like this is just a drop and run-- but I've got to go.''
you chuckled, yuji raising a chubby hand, ''bye bye!''
goodbye's were quickly shared before heading inside.
yuji immediately plopped himself on the couch once you let him down, already switching youtube on and watching whatever roblox? you think gameplay.
''what are you watching?'' you called out from the kitchen, preparing a snack plate for him.
he charged into the kitchen, shadow boxing as he spoke; ''roblox game! its jujutsu shenanigans! fighting game!''
jujutsu shenanigans? wow you felt old, what was that even? ''calm down, little boxer. the kitchen isn't a boxing ring,'' combing his spikey pink hair back, handing him a slightly worn, plastic spiderman plate with his favourite snacks.
watching him toddle back onto the plush couch, you sat yourself at the kitchen island, scrolling through your social media apps, until you spotted something that caught your attention.
' EASY & SIMPLE SWEET HONEY COOKIE STEP BY STEP RECIPE! - mrs gojo's bakery '
you heard about mrs gojo's bakery before, top stars on every review. why not give it a try?
''yuji, want to help me bake some cookies for uncle kuna?'' ''yes yes yes!!''
tv turned low, yuji standing on a stepping stool as you read out the step by step instructions. everything needed already out Infront of you. ''okay, you washed your hands, right yuji?''
he froze, before nodding. ''yup.''
''go wash them or we don't start, that's important rules of the kitchen.'' met with a whine, he got off of the stool, pushed it over to the sink and washed his hands.
''okay, now we're ready! step one, prepare the dough. ' combine butter, sugar, honey, and salt in a large bowl. beat together until creamy. add eggs and vanilla, mixing until smooth. gradually add flour until just combined. chill the dough for 1-2 hours ' ''
guiding yuji's hands to drop the butter, sugar, honey and salt in the bowl, it was going easy. until he squirted all of the honey on the counter!
''m' sowwey, auntie!'' he pouted, clinging onto your leg.
sighing, collecting some kitchen towels and cleaning spray, you shushed him lightly. ''its okay, everyone makes mistakes, even the biggest of chefs and bakers.''
that seemed to do the trick, washing his now-sticky hands as you put the dough mixture into the fridge to chill.
'' 'scoop the dough into balls and flatten them slightly. bake at 375°F (190°C) for 9-10 minutes or until golden' .''
taking the dough after two hours out of the fridge, you took a spoonful and plopped it down onto a tray, spreading it out and doing the same thing over and over again. yuji was feeling a little sleepy so he dozed off onto the couch. which was fine because this was probably the most uninteresting part for a kid.
once they were all set, you took a small rolling pin from your kitchen drawer and flattened the cookies. some a little bit bigger than others but who cares.
sukuna wouldn't budge over cookies, biggie.
humming a advert tune that was stuck in your head to keep you busy, it was time to heat them up.
carefully cleaning out the oven, placing the tray inside and shutting the oven door, heating up the oven to what the step by step instructions say.
deciding to spend your 10 minutes catching up on your show, you wanted to text sukuna just to have a conversation with him... but it was a little hard since he would be going full gordon ramsey right about now.
honestly, if you ever worked for him even you would be scared. a cramped space, someone yelling orders, people crowding around the restaurant; eugh. not for you.
'' 'cool and serve: let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. enjoy them warm or with a drink.
~ these steps will help you create delicious honey cookies that are soft, chewy, and perfect for any occasion. for more detailed instructions and variations, refer to the provided recipes', other than that, enjoy! . ''
getting caught up with calling your friends, forgetting about the cookies... some of them were a little burnt at the edges.
so to try cover up this sneakily, you started to make some frosting to decorate! plus some sprinkles from the last time yuji wanted to bake cupcakes.
laying them out to perfect your handwriting with the piping, designing some plain ones at the side, it was finished!
waking a sleepy yuji up, ''mmhhh, auntieee!'' he squealed, attaching himself to you. ''are the cookies finish?''
''mhm, i decorated them too, you were still napping and i had a little plan...'' ''wat is it?''
once sukuna got home, he kicked off his shoes, hung his jacket on the wrack and tossed his keys in the bowl next to a fern plant. ''m' home.'' his familiar voice rung out the hallway,
''uncle kunaaaa!'' yuji's fast feet ran out to his uncle, throwing himself as sukuna caught him, raising a brow.
hiking him up against his chest comfortably, -''when did you get here, y' brat?'' roughly ruffling the little boy's hair with rough hands, making him giggle and pat at his shoulder.
''auntie bake cookies,'' his grabby hands tugged at sukuna's chef uniform, now he was intrigued.
''she did?'' lowering yuji as he sprinted back into the dimly lit kitchen, he stretched and cracked his bones before heading in after him. ''babe, what did'ya make?--''
''surprise!'' ''SUPRIS!''
sukuna's whole body froze, his eyes widening as he read the message and saw what yuji was holding.
''you're going to be a daddy!'' combined with a small gift box and a positive pregnancy stick inside.
a/n :: this is so poop but ignore how it is ;-; plus i got these instructions from google so you could probably make some of these if ya like honey
