Umeme giggled as Muroki used the cub's own fatigue against them to use the opportunity to clean Ubawa. Sure enough, the cub, while complaining rather loudly, only tried a little to escape before giving up and sulkily accepting his fate. She then grabbed Marini and began to clean their daughter up as well, who unlike her brother, enjoyed the opportunity to rest while enjoying the personal attention given to her by her mother.
With the other two cubs occupied, Delano watched as Lina took Akili in between her arms and also began to clean him. Surprisingly, Akili didn't complain too much, despite normally, much like Ubawa, not enjoying needing to be cleaned. Their son was obviously glad to be with his parents again, no doubt having wondered why he was watched over by Kato in the morning and not them. Hoping that it would distract him from his worries for at least some time, Delano asked their son, "So how weer you this morning? Did you get Marini?" While competitive with both of his cousins, Akili always like to especially go after Marini, who was often better at fighting him off than Ubawa, and was the only girl out of the three of them.
