"Oh..my..God."

"Please don't faint again, Hifumi-kun.."

"I wasn't going to faint…Really, I wasn't!"

"Mmm."

"Look at 'im..he's so small! And wrinkly! He's like..he's like a prune!"

"Hifumi-kun, I'm not sure I appreciate you comparing our son to a prune."

"Right, sorry. He's got your nose, you know..and your ears..and I see a little bit of black hair there..So wait, what part of this kid looks like me?"

"Maybe he'll have your mouth?"

"..Was that actual sarcasm?"

"Just an observation."

"…"

"What are we going to name him?"

"Name him? Uh, I haven't thought about it…it's a lot of pressure, isn't it, naming a kid?"

"Not really. I've been thinking..what if we named him Hiruko?"

"Hiruko? We're naming our kid after a baku? Are you sure that won't bring him bad luck or something?"

"We're naming him after a very close friend. I don't see anything wrong with that."

"..Well, when you put it that way…Hiruko it is, then."

The baby's eyes opened.

They were blue.
