And the news spreads...

Chapter 10: Congratulations

All of Sakamoto and Bao-Yi's friends and family were anxious to hear about the news of their baby...everyone except for Oak Sung, who's really excited but also very calm about this and didn't want anyone else to make it a very nervous event and he turned to the others and said, "Let us all focus on the joy this will bring in. This is a very happy occasion."

Shin Hai wasn't so tense or worried for Sakamoto and he said to him, "I hope that my buddy will have a boy. That will completely make it awesome."

Yuki scoffs at Shin Hai's prediction and she said, "He's already had a boy before. So, this time...it should be a girl."

Toshi got a little bit thrown off by what Yuki meant by that and he said, "Come on, Yuki. It should be a boy. I'm not sure Sakamoto's ready to deal with a daughter."

"And what is wrong with having a daughter?" Yuki asked, with her hands on her hips.

"Come on, Yuki. Can you imagine having to deal with a daughter when she gets older? All the small things will turn into a big deal and argue about it? I could never hear the end of it." Toshi responded.

Some of Bao-Yi's friends overheard what Toshi said and each of them gave their own views about it. One of Bao-yi's friends said, "There is nothing wrong with having a daughter. Besides, it's the mother's job to handle each situation while the dad's busy trying to keep her from having a boyfriend."

"Exactly. You know what boys are like." Shin Hai replied.

Soon enough, Shin's mate came from behind him and asked, "Those who want to put your hand under our pants?"

Shin stammered at this and he said, "I need a drink."

Oak Sung looked up at everyone and he said, "There will be no drinking during this occasion. Besides, Shin...you've already embarassed yourself more than once in such occasions."

Akimitsu, Hayate and Shizue were still waiting for Sakamoto and Bao-Yi to come by and give them the good news and Akimitsu was anxiously waiting for what's gonna happen next and he couldn't wait any longer and he said, "What's taking them so long?"

"Don't rush, Akimitsu. They'll be here when they'll be here." Hayate replied.

Shizue held onto little Akashi in her arms and nuzzled his cheek deeply and Hayate looks at his grandson and tried to make some faces to him, but the result is Akashi crying out loud and Hayate was trying to make him laugh, but to no avail for Akashi was very scared. Shizue shushed him as she cradled him in her arms and Akimitsu came to him as well and said to his son, "What's wrong, Kashi? Did your grandfather wake you up?"

Hayate looked a little bit offended and said, "All I did was make faces at my grandson."

Minutes later, Sakamoto and Bao-Yi noticed that there was a crowd gathering near their house and wanted to see what's going on and soon enough, they saw their friends and family standing there and the crowd cheered for them in open arms and Oak Sung said, "How did it go?"

"It went really well, Oak." Bao-Yi replied.

Shin Hai went over to the couple and he was excited to know what's up and asked, "So...tell us, Saka. We're dying to know! It is a boy...or a girl?"

Both of them looked at each other and they thought that the joyful news they have would be too obvious to keep to themselves and they agreed to tell them anyway and Sakamoto replied, "It's a boy."

Most of them cheered in excitement that they're gonna have a son and Shin Hai did see it coming and planned to tell Yuki off, but Bao-Yi stopped and said, "Two boys, actually."

"Two?" everyone asked.

"The doctor told us we're having twin boys." Sakamoto said.

Oak Sung was surprised with the fact that they're gonna have two boys and he was totally happy with this and he said, "Congratulations. Now me and my wife will have two grandsons."

Akimitsu comes over to the couple and gave them hugs of congratulations and said, "I'm so happy for you guys that you'll have twin boys."

"How lucky are you both? Especially you, Sakamoto...you did the deed." Hayate said, with a sly smirk.

Shizue stomped Hayate's foot for making that snarky comment and she turned to Bao-Yi and said, "I have got to plan a baby shower for this."

"Why, thank you." Bao-Yi replied.

"Are we invited?" asked Akimitsu, excitedly.

Shizue glared at Akimitsu in the eye and replied, "Baby showers are for women and mothers only. And you're not invited."

"Sorry, son...this is for the older folks too." Hayate said, thinking he'll get a shot.

"And neither are you." Shizue added.

Shizue lets Bao-Yi hold onto Akashi for a second and she looked at him in the eye and tickled his chin and stomach and said, "Hi, Akashi. How are you?"

Akashi cooed back at her and he smiled at Bao-Yi and he lets out a yawn and Bao-Yi knew that she's rocking him to sleep in her arms and then he closed his eyes and went off to sleep. She patted him on the back and gave him back to Shizue. Bao-Yi said, "Your son is adorable."

"I know he is. You'll make a great mother, Bao." Shizue said, happily.

"Yeah, me and Shizue will love to look after your sons one of those days." Akimitsu replied.

"Anytime." Sakamoto added.

Who wants to see the birth? It's coming soon!
