Mei also gave her stepmother a hug. Though soft-spoken as ever, Mei had been growing closer to Ume in the recent months... especially since the school trip and finally become very close with Yuzu.

The trio then sat down at the table together to enjoy their dinner... which turned out quite delicious, and Mei gave Yuzu a shy but proud, knowing smile.

Yuzu smiled, she was glad to see Mei getting closer with their mother as well. Mei's heart was so locked down from her father always being gone, and her families wealth meaning she was going to be betrothed for money, but Yuzu was the key that opened her up again, so it always made her happy to see Mei forming real connections again. She smiled back at Mei as they ate, proud of what they had done together.

Mei ate her supper quietly as usual, though she listened politely to Yuzu and Ume discuss the various events of their day... though Yuzu of course omitted how she and Mei had spent their afternoon together.

After dinner the girls helped their mother clear the table and wash everything up, before they headed to their room.

"Yuzu," Mei said, "tonight, instead of bath, should we do some online shopping together?" She gave her sister a knowing smile, then kissed her cheek.

Yuzu chattered on during dinner for a bit, talking about her and Harumi causing mischief as usual, but she remained quiet about what exactly they did before Ume got home.

Yuzu smiled and nodded "That sounds fun, dear sister..." she whispered into Mei's ear, once they were alone in their room she opened her computer up and started doing a web search.

Mei drew up the other chair and sat close beside Yuzu. She put her arm around her sister and lay her head on Yuzu's shoulder.

Before long, Mei was looking at a few different storefronts for adult diapers of all sorts, most in adorably childlike design, as well as oversized baby items such as pacifiers and bottles, or sippy cups like the one Yuzu had already bought for her.

And there were accompanying articles as well, describing how some adults and teenagers liked to wear diapers and act or be treated like babies - or in some cases, little girls, which Mei found particularly intriguing - as a means of stress relief and relaxation, or sometimes fun and fetish play as well.

"So this is where you got the idea, Yuzu," Mei observed. She gave Yuzu another kiss on the cheek.

Yuzu smiled as she gently stroked Mei's head once the girl was resting on her shoulder "You're so cute Mei..." she cooed. Yuzu smiled as they ordered a few different kinds, some thicker with multiple tapes and more babyish, some looking like they could even be hidden below their school skirts, not that Yuzu would ever suggest such a thing. She nodded "Yes, at least partially..." she smiled "What if I said Harumi introduced the concept to me?" she giggled

Mei liked the bulky pink diapers, with princesses and unicorns, the best... and she told Yuzu as much. Little by little, she was sharing her inner little girl with her sister and lover. And the more she did, the closer to Yuzu she felt... and that made her happy.

"Hmm?" she said. "Harumi? Really?"

Yuzu nodded with a smiled as she made sure to order a few extra packs in those particular styles, but she wanted to try just about everything out so she got a few sample packs of each. Yuzu smiled as she pulled Mei onto her lap and bounced her on her knee. Then nodded again "Yep... Harumin and I were playing Never Have I Ever, and I said Never Have I Ever wet myself since potty training, she just blushed and flipped her skirt up, showing a wet diaper, then explained this all to me." Yuzu giggled

"You're kidding," Mei said, her eyes wide in astonishment. "I mean, I've admired Harumi's playful spirit for a while now, so long as she doesn't make a scene or break the rules at school. But wearing a diaper for recreational use? Honestly?"

Yuzu giggled and nodded "Yep, I bet if I asked she'd send me a picture of her current one if she's wearing. She's pretty comfortable discussing it with me since then since I didn't really freak out. It's just a way for her to relax without upsetting her sister, who has always been even more of a stickler for the rules than you, and is very strict with Harumi, diapers was her way to relieve that stress..."
