April 4

Masaki Kurosaki was sitting down in the grass, under a cherry blossom tree, rubbing her protruding belly. She was 8 months pregnant.

She smiled as she saw her kids playing tag. "Shiro, Ichigo, Orihime please come here, I want to talk to you about something."

Ichigo stopped running and looked at his mom, while Shiro ran into him, sending both boys falling on the grass.

Ichigo scowled angrily. "Get off!" The seven year old boy yelled.

The ten year old, white- haired boy laughed. "Sorry, it was an accident."

When they both got up, Ichigo looked at his sister and frowned. She was giggling, at him!

"Stop laughing! It isn't funny." Ichigo yelled.

"I'm sorry" Orihime said between giggles.

Masaki smiled and giggled a little too. "Alright, that's enough. Come here, please."

Ichigo sighed and followed his brother over to his mom. "What is it mom?" Ichigo asked when they were all seated.

"Well, as you know, my belly has been getting rather big, do any of you know why?" Masaki asked curiously.

Ichigo shook his head, while Orihime answered. "Because you're getting fat."

Masaki giggled. "No, sweetheart. Shiro, do you want to try?"

Shiro shrugged. "Because you're having babies."

Masaki beamed. "That's right, sweetie. How did you know?"

"It's the same thing that happened with Ichigo and Orihime." Shiro replied nonchalantly.

"Yes, I'm pregnant, with twins again. Only this time it's two girls." Masaki said proudly.

"The babies are in there?" Ichigo asked curiously, while looking at his mom's belly.

Orihime poked the tummy. "Did you eat them?"

Masaki smiled. "Yes, the babies are in here and no I didn't eat them. The babies will be born next month, Ichigo you will be a big brother and Orihime, you will be a big sister."

Ichigo and Orihime gazed at Masaki in wonderment. Shiro smiled. "That's right and I'll be a big brother to all of them. And a big brother is there to protect the little brother or sister."

Ichigo looked at Shiro with big eyes. "Really?"

Shiro nodded. "Really, so as a big brother you'll have to protect them too."

Ichigo smiled. "Okay, I'll protect them when they come."

Masaki smiled at them, while Orihime kept staring at her mom's belly in amazement.
