Katie was jolted from her short slumber after she felt a sharp pain coming from her abdomen. She clutched her stomach in pain and groaned lowly. That was the 6th time this week the kid has kept her up, be it from the pains she's having now to nausea. She moved from laying on her left side to her right side and pulled her blanket from her neck to under her stomach. A very faint blue irradiated from her stomach.
The kid wasn't the only one keeping her up at night. Everyday her mind was swirling with questions and solutions. How was she supposed to take care of a kid in college? What was this baby going to be like? How was she going to find a job? What would her parents think? How was the father going to react?
All these questions were too much for one night. For now, she was just going to focus on one of the more important ones: the father.
Katie dug her head deeper into the pillow. Considering who the father was, this would not go down well with him. Multiple thoughts raced through her mind as of what would happen at the confrontation, each idea making her a little more cautious.
"Katie?" Lazily turning her head, she say the head of a little cat over the edge of bed with a worried look on his face.
"Mmm, yeah Jibanyan?" She sleepily replied.
"I was just wondering, um, if you need anything. This is the 6th time this week."
Katie sniffled. "I don't need anything, but thanks for the thought. I'm just… worried about someone."
"You mean your kit- I mean kid?"
"Yeah, but I'm also worried about the father."
Jibanyan hopped up onto the bed. "Maybe we could help if you could tell us."
After finding out about the baby, Jibanyan and Whisper pestered her with questions such as who the father was, why she would do this, and other parental like questions. She tried to skip over the uneasy questions, but even then they were brought up here and there on occasion.
She looked into Jibanyan's golden eyes and took a deep breathe.
"Okay, I know I have been keeping this back, but I can't keep it in any longer. I was planning to tell you after I told the father so we say it together, but the suspense is killing me. But I'm only going to tell you, so don't blab it. Please."
He nodded.
"Alright, come closer." She beckoned.
Jibanyan put his near his friend's mouth.
"Alright… you see, the father is…is… Kyubi…"
