Hummer's POV
"Hmm…" I mumbled in my sleep as I felt someone move into the bed "You're late again."
Shao didn't say anything and just tried to go to sleep.
"You know I figured after we got married I'd see more of you, not less." I said still pushing the subject.
"I don't really want to talk about this again." she complained.
"Well I do." I sighed.
"What is the big deal?" she hissed "I was working that's it!"
"You work all the damn time!" I snapped "You have a family, why don't you take some time off once in a while?!"
"It's my job!" she said.
"Then delegate something to other people for once." I groaned siting on the edge of the bed "You're my wife, aren't I allowed to be a little selfish and want to see you more than one hour a day when you come back in the middle of the night."
She just ignored me.
"Oh sorry I would prefer to see my wife and have my daughters actually get some attention from their mother once in a while!" I snapped storming out of the bedroom.
I went out to the living room and laid on the couch trying to cool off, I knew I shouldn't have been yelling like that, not only because it was rude but because I may have accidentally awoken the triplets. Also now I was so pissed off I just wanted to punch something.
"…Hey." I heard a voice and looked up to see Sui-Feng standing there.
"Hey." I said back looking up at her.
"Sorry." We both said at the same time.
"Haa…" Shao laid on top of me "I am trying to work less it's just hard."
"I know, I shouldn't be one to talk I work a lot too." I sighed hugging her.
"I do want to be home more, not just for you, but them too." She said.
"I know you love them." I sighed "I didn't want you to feel like I was saying you didn't."
"I guess we both have a lot to do in order to be better partners…and parents." She smiled.
"Yeah." I kissed her "But if I'm gonna have to struggle to do this with anyone I'm happy it's you."
"Me too." She kissed me back "Should we head back to bed?"
"Why." I pulled a blanket up "I'm pretty comfy right here."
Sui-Feng laughed "Alright but don't blame me if your back hurts later."
The Next Day
"GAH!" I groaned as Isane pulled my shoulder back.
"I'd advise you not to sleep on the couch for a bit." She laughed.
"Sorry." I rubbed my shoulder "Thanks for readjusting all that for me."
"No problem." She smiled "So anything else you need?"
"No…well actually I have a question." I said "Do you mind examining the girls later today?"
"Sure but why?" she asked.
"Nothing major just something feel off you know." I shrugged "Well I've gotta get moving or Lisa is gonna kill me…again so I'll be back later."
Later
"So how were they toady?" I asked.
"Fine all in all." Isane said "The checkup was fine but there was one small issue that I'm going to keep monitoring for a bit."
"Something wrong?" I asked.
"Well they're healthy…for one year old." She noted "But their only six months old, they're growing twice as fast as they should be if anything is the cause it's because you were still human when they were convinced."
"Is this a bad thing?" Sui-Feng asked walking in "Are they going to be okay?"
"Hey." I smiled at her.
"Right now they're fine but it'd be best to bring them in for regular exams." Isane explained "Other than that they're normal healthy girls, for all we know they'll just grow up a little faster and be done growing sooner or something, there really hasn't been a case like this so I'm kinda flying by what I see."
"Okay." Sui-Feng said picking the girls up "Let's go Hummer."
"Right." I nodded as we headed outside "I'm surprised you got home early today."
"Well I figured today was a light day so I could cut out sooner." She blinked "I won't promise this every day by any means."
"A little extra time with you is all that matters." I smiled.
