Slices of Life: Chapter: Talking
"Did you hear that?!" I ask Heero, my eyes bugging out of my head.
He grins. "I sure did."
"How are you happy about this?!"
"Because she's talking!" He cheers as he picks Mariko up from the floor in front of me. "Can you say it again Ko-Ko?"
I stare, gaping at him with my mouth open. "She said 'mama'! This is like a...a...a gay parents worst nightmare!"
"You're making too much of this, Duo. She just putting syllables together, she doesn't understand what she's saying," he tries to sooth me while bouncing Mariko on his knees.
Flopping on the couch next him, I groan. "I would feel insulted if I were you. Mama is close to Papa. Maybe she thinks you're her mother."
Ouch! He smacked me on the forehead. "I don't feel insulted because I'm not stupid like you-"
"Hey!"
"Can you say Papa, Mariko?" he coos out our little six month baby.
"Mama," she squeaks.
Heero shrugs, "Close enough." And I smack my hand over my eyes and whimper. Seriously?
