Hey, Musaki here! Now you'll pretty much know what happens next...the birth of me and Zeke! Here's how it went down...
Chapter 2: The Birth
Almost 4 months later, my mother was ready to give birth and with my dad by her side, she was able to push through with all the support she can get and with several pushes, out comes a baby cub. When I came out of the womb, I was crying loudly, but my parents were in relief when I came to their lives.
My mother breathed a heavy sigh and then the nurse cleaned me up and then, brought me to her and she held me close. I stopped crying and then I turned silent for a while as I fell asleep. She cuddled me and patted my head and said, "Hello, my sweet baby boy."
My dad looked close and she gave him to me and he held me closely and he felt so moved with it and gave out the biggest smile he ever gave. I slowly opened my eyes and I saw him looking at me for the first time. My mother looks at him and me and she said to me, "You have your father's eyes, little one."
My dad gently stroked my neck and tickled my chin and I started giggling. He then looked at me with tears streaming down on his face as I looked at his eyes for the first time ever. He laughs softly and said, "My son..."
A couple of minutes after my birth, my mother suddenly resumed screaming in pain when another baby panda came out of her. My father continued to hold me and then she held her hand again and he whispered, "I'm here. Just hold on."
Not long after, another baby panda cub came out and it was crying loudly as well, but it was like another big moment for all of us. The nurse cleans him up and gives him to my mother and she looked at him and starts smiling and whispered, "Hello."
So, my dad held me and my mom held my twin brother. My other twin brother finally opens his eyes and my mother looks into his big brown eyes and they looked at me and him and figure that there's something different about both of us.
The nurse explains that we're both fraternal twins that we are twins, but we don't look anything alike. Nevertheless, both of my parents looked into our eyes and already accepted us anyway. It was an emotional moment for both of them as they lay on the side of the cave, just holding each of us.
My dad looked at my mom with a smile and said, "I'm so proud of you."
"We always knew we were gonna be parents. Now it's officially coming true." my mother said.
"I'm definitely the father of two healthy fraternal twin boys."
My father definitely shed some tears and so did my mom, but it was of joy and bliss. When my parents looked at me, they saw me blink and they also saw my twin brother blink as well and we brought in some innocence together, though we never looked at each other.
"So, how are we going so far, dad?" asked my mom.
"I think we might be the coolest."
My mother let out a smile and she looked at me and looked at my father and she realized-I have my dad's eyes and his face. She lets out a small laugh and my dad turned to her and asked, "What's so funny?"
"I look at him and he looks just like you."
"He does?"
"He has your eyes."
My dad looked at me and sees that I do have blue eyes and I looked at him and I have the exact same blue eyes he has. He was surprised and replied, "You're right. He does look like me."
My mother kept smiling and said, "Now I know where he gets it from."
"I wouldn't consider that, because he also has your dimples."
My dad gave me to her and she looked at my face and sees that we have the same dimples. She laughs softly and said, "Okay, you got me."
Then, she turned to my twin brother and he had my mother's brown eyes. She smiled at him and kissed him on the cheek and said, "You look exactly like me, don't you? You also have your mother's chin."
My mother looked at my chin and sees that we do have the same chin. She chuckled and said, "Good point. At least his is a little smaller than mine."
Suddenly, my grandfather came along the cave with enthusiasm and said, "Is it okay if we come in?"
"Sure." my mother replied, happily.
Soon, everyone came in the cave and they saw us for the first time and they all let out a collective, "Aw..."
My grandmother looked at me for the first time and said, "He looks so cute and adorable."
"Yes, he is."
My mother let her hold me and she rubbed my head softly while my grandfather looked at my other brother and held him as well. They then switched baby panda cubs and it was the first time that I actually saw him. He looked into my deep blue eyes and he smiled at me and said, "You look a lot like your father."
My dad laughs and said, "I guess. But it's wonderful, regardless."
They then gave him back to us and Shin Hai came over to my dad and felt a wave of emotion sweeping through him and said, "I finally got that feeling of what it's like to be a father for the first time."
"You just feel joy surrounding you when you hold that baby in your arms for the first time and you realize that every waking moment you see your kid's face for the first time is of pure joy, happiness and to see those innocent, smiling faces."
Shin Hai smiles and looks at me for the first time and said, "Hey, little guy. I'm your dad's best friend."
He picks me up and then, I looked at his teeth and I started crying loudly. Shin Hai looked very nervous and gave me back to him and I stopped crying as my dad held me. He chuckled and said, "I think he'll get used to you when he's older."
"You know I love kids, right?"
"I know you do. I'm gonna make you my god-father."
Shin Hai's heart was warming up a bit and said, "I will be honored to be look after your son."
He then looked at my twin brother while Mako was in front of him and said, "Who's this little one?"
He picks him up, looks at him for a while and then, he pees at Shin Hai, which was kinda unexpected. Shin Hai looks down and sees the 'gift' my twin brother left him on his shirt. He giggled softly and Shin Hai was kinda understanding and he gave him back to his mother. She laughs and said, "I think he likes you."
Shin Hai chuckled softly and said, "It's not the first time I got peed on, but also the first time I got a number one from a panda."
Mako chuckled and said, "I think this kid is a mischief."
He then looked at me and he picked me up and said, "Hey, buddy. I'm your uncle."
I looked at my uncle for the first time and it was one of the best moments I've ever felt and then, he looked at my brother and he held both of us. He then looked at my father and asked, "Have you guys thought up of names yet?"
"We need to think of one." my mother said.
My father looks at me and said, "I'll name him after my trainer back in the Valley of Peace-Saki Mu."
My mother smiled and said, "How about... Musaki? Sounds better?"
"That's a good name. I'll also name him...Xing-Fu, after my father's grandfather."
"Why Xing-Fu?" asked Mango.
"Look at his face."
Mango looks at my face for the first time and I was smiling the whole time. My dad smiled and said, "In Japanese, 'Xing-Fu' means 'joyful and happiness'."
"Oh, okay."
Then, my grandfather came to my dad and said, "He's got so much ko and kanji."
"Yeah, I know."
Shin Hai looked confused and asked, "Uh...what?"
"Ko is Japanese for 'happiness, light and peace' while kanji stands for 'innocence.' Looking at Xing-Fu, he's got a lot of those."
Looking at me, Shin Hai already sees my face and my eyes and I start giggling. He chuckled and said, "Now I understand."
"Xing-Fu Musaki Ko Kanji Akio-Meng." his father said.
My mother went in and asked, "Can I have a go at it? How about we add another name after my teacher-Cheng."
"Cheng?" asked my grandmother.
"'Accomplished' in Chinese, because I know for a fact that he'll accomplish anything."
"I like that name." my dad said.
"And we'll add another one, 'Xi-Wang'; meaning joyful and happiness."
Then, it hit both of my parents; my father announced my full name to everyone. He clears his throat and said, "This baby's full name is Xing-Fu Musaki Ko Kanji Akio-Meng Cheng Xi-Wang."
Everyone fell in love with that name and my mother said, "I like the name Musaki better. It kinda sounds...sweet."
"Can I still call him Xing-Fu?" asked my father.
"You can call him Xing-Fu and I'll call him Musaki." my mother answered.
"Sure thing, my sweet."
"And what about the other one?" asked my grandfather.
"Well, I thought of a name if we had twins and that I'll name one Xing-Fu and another one Ezekiel." my father replied.
"That's a wonderful name."
My mother looked at my brother and gave him a name. She smiled and said, "Ezekiel Meng."
"How about we give him a middle name, because there is a bit of Japanese descent in him?" asked my grandmother.
"Daisuke. It means 'great helper' in Japanese." my father said.
"That's a great one."
"Now we need a chinese name." Mako said.
"How about...Zahou? I'm naming it after my father." my mother said.
"That's perfect."
"Ezekiel Daisuke Zahou Akio-Meng."
My grandfather came towards my father and he told him, with tears in his eyes, "These are the blessings that I'm gonna be blessed with for the rest of my life."
"I know, my son. I am so proud of you."
He walked up to my dad and hugged him tightly. He whispered, "I'm gonna be a great father...just like you."
"You already have."
Soon, everyone in the entire cave looked at us and me and Zeke looked at each other for the first time and instantly became brothers. That day has immensely brought in joy in our parents lives and we know that their lives have changed forever. Hours later, my mother gave us a blanket that she made and we crawled in it and then, we were all falling asleep and me and Zeke slept on my dad's belly for the rest of the night. He chuckled and said to us, "Good night...my sons."
Musaki: Aww, that's so cute. Sometimes I wish moments like this could stay forever.
Animation Universe 2005: But it couldn't last forever.
Musaki: What do you mean?
Animation Universe 2005: Well, I know you've met Zeke almost 2 years ago, so I thought what might happen to him and that you guys wouldn't see each other until you got older.
Musaki: Oh...I guess that makes sense...kind of.
Animation Universe 2005: The third chapter will have some serious moments and let me tell you it's gonna be one heck of a warfare!
Musaki: While you do that, I'll meditate.
Animation Universe 2005: Just read and review, please.
