Routine
This story will be in 3rd person until I say so!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yoongi holds his straps tightly in his tiny hands. Walking to preschool is such a hassle, especially when one wanted to sleep instead.
Preschool wasn't that far of a walk, it's only six blocks. Yoongi has done that trek for a couple of weeks now. His parents trust him and the other hybrids.
"Good morning, Mr. Yoongi." An elderly Penguin woman said. Right now, Yoongi is standing at a red crossing light. Red means stop.
"Good morning, grandma." Yoongi says in a bow. The woman smiles at the young boy's manners. "Have you had any breakfast this morning?"
Yoongi nods. "My eomma made pancakes with fruit and strawberry milk."
The woman nods. "That's good. It's also sad. I made fresh bread but it seems you don't need them today."
Yoongi's tail flicked behind him. He loves bread, they are sweet but not too sweet for him. "Actually, I think eomma made that yesterday, so I'm still hungry now."
The woman laughs before handing him a round warm bread with sesame seeds. "The light is green, you need to get to school."
Yoongi nods as he smiles into his bite of the bread.
He continues his walk to preschool. After three blocks he stops to see a human cleaning up an alleyway. Every morning he sees that same man in the same alley cleaning.
"Good morning." Yoongi speaks.
The man turns his head to the entrance in fear before a big smile replaced it.
"Mr. Min." He answered back. He tried to make the conversation inconspicuous to not draw unwanted attention. Humans are not allowed to talk to hybrids so freely, never mind to their children.
"You ready for school?" The man asked.
Yoongi shakes his head. "No, I don't like school, it's always so early."
The man chuckles lowly. "Education is important, Mr. Min. Most children don't get the chance."
Yoongi sighs. "I know. You tell me every morning. So boring."
"Maybe today your teacher will have something fun planned."
Yoongi shrugs. "I don't like playing or coloring. I rather sleep. I like nap time." Yoongi takes a bite out of his bread.
A low growl was heard and the man blushes. Yoongi stares at the human. "Are you hungry? Eomma always told me not to do any work on an empty stomach."
The man bends his knees so he can pick up some trash that was soggy in a drain. "You mother is right. Eat what she gives you alright."
"Do you want my bread?" Yoongi asked.
"You eat it, Mr. Min. I will eat when I do. Now, you better get to school." The man gives Yoongi one last smile before turning around to continue his work. Yoongi stares at the man. He's hungry. Why doesn't he eat right now?
Walking in the alley, Yoongi places the bread on an old chair on top of the napkin the woman wrapped the bread in before running out and towards his preschool.
The man picks up the final bundle of trash and shoves it inside his trash bag. Walking out of the alley he spots the half eaten bread and smiles. Thank you, Mr. Min.

Now at his final block, Yoongi stops at the end of the crosswalk, looked both ways, then crossed. Once he reached the other side, Yoongi spots the small building that stands right in the middle of main street.
Looking up at the sign, it reads "Orphanage" and everyday Yoongi passes it going to and from school. And everyday, he will look inside through the wall window that lets hybrids from the outside see what is happening on the inside.
(Something like this)
He doesn't know why he looks, it's the same thing everyday. Children sitting and playing and sometimes napping. I wish I was in there napping.
Of course, Yoongi doesn't know what's really going on inside but that isn't important. Today there is a new kid inside. Yoongi has a good memory so it wasn't hard to see such a new face.
The kid looked about his age, 4 maybe 3. The boy turns to the window and smiles through his pacifier that is in his mouth. Yoongi looks at the kid in disgust. Why is he still using a paci?
The boy makes his way to the window and places his hands on the glass. The boy hasn't seen someone his size plus, the kid on the other side has a pretty fluffy tail. He had to get a better look!
Yoongi stares at the human as well and decided to place his hands on the other's through the glass. The boy smiles even bigger while Yoongi's tail sways in happiness. The two just stayed like that until a voice snapped Yoongi out of it.
"Kid, you need to get to school."
Yoongi turns around and spots a Bear hybrid staring at him. With a bow, Yoongi nods and runs to his preschool.
The bear smiles at the running child before he stares at the window at the human kid. He growls before stepping inside the orphanage to speak with the owner. The boy got a major punishment that day.

Words: 868
Here is the daily life of 4 year old Yoongi. I am thinking of providing three chapters worth of Child Yoongi before getting to the plot.
Hope this story is catching someone's attention!
