Chapter Fifty-Five: Surprise
Mai pov
This story could start with, Once upon a time, on a stormy night, where the thunder roars the sky, and the wind owns the island. We lay peacefully on the sandy ground
Yeah, that's how I should start it... One little problem with that story, though.
"Naru!" I yelled in agony, as another painful wave hits me, tears running down my cheeks, and sweat poured down my face and body.
"If you have to choose between me and the baby, choose the baby." I pleaded Naru glance down to me, noticing the tears running down his cheeks.
"Is that what you choose?" he asks, noticing his voice cracking. I nodded, arching my body up in pain.
"Yes." I cup his cheek, and he leans forward the kiss my lips.
"I choose," he paused, as he leans in my ear and my eyes narrow at his words…. And I closed my eyes, feeling tears rolling down my cheeks.
"Naru, don't ever forget, that I love you and will always love you."
…
...
"This is the mansion?" Shibuya asks with a whistle while we stood in front of the big old mansion, which belongs to Irene father.
"Mansion, yes, it is. I never step inside." I told him. Shibuya gave me a strange look, but then anger filled his eyes.
"What?" I asked him.
"He looks down at you; just that simple sentence is stating everything." He murmurs, watching him walk straight towards the front. My eyes widen, and I rushed to his side.
"Oi, pirate, what are you doing?" I asked getting worried. I grasp his hand, and he stop at my touch. He turns to face me.
"To beat the crap out of him. He belittles you. I can't let anyone belittle you." His voice is stern with anger. I felt a strange emotion pass my heart.
"He practically raised me. I own him a lot." I told him. Shibuya didn't seem convinced, but I felt him relax under my touch.
"Then what is your plan?" he asks me.
"We go and take Irene out, and kill Ester," I told him.
"Do you have the guts to kill? Have you even killed before?" he suddenly asks me with a serious tone, that cause me to wince.
"No, but..." he sighs in disbelieve.
"Haven't you learned anything from what we talked about a few days ago? It haunts you; I still see blood in my hands, from all the people I have killed. I get nightmares. We find another way to get rid of Ester." He gently tells me, cupping my cheeks. His eyes soften and his place his forehead against mine.
"I don't want to spend my remaining days, knowing that you have killed. You deserve better." I cup his cheek.
"You're not mad? You haven't said anything since I told you." Shibuya gave me a teary laugh and wrap his arms around me.
"No, is not your fault, things happen." He whispers, kissing my cheek. My heartfelt ripped into two. I can't believe he doesn't hate me.
"But Shibuya, its." but Shibuya shook his head.
"Is not your fault. You tried your best, I wish I was there, I wish I could have helped you. I can't imagine how scared and alone, you felt that day. I'm sorry. I can't imagine the pain you felt." I hugged him tight, feeling fresh tears roll down my cheeks, as a lump is caught in my throat.
"Just remembering, it hurts. Shibuya. I'm sorry." I cried out. He rubs my back gently.
"Don't worry about it, let start anew. That was our past lives. After this, we will do whatever you want, and live happily." He whispers to me. I nodded. I wish I can believe in his words. Knowing the truth. Can try right? Can I give myself another chance? How... How can he still love me?
Naru pov
We walked up (well, I actually limp,) towards the front door, and I glance down at my wife. Noticing her red eyes. I still can't believe it myself, but what rips me, is that thought of how she had to do it alone. I won't pressure her at all. I wish; I would have never met her that day so many years ago. Maybe her life would have been different. Maybe, and I could have just died alone, and not feeling anything for anyone. Right?
"We just knock?" asked, looking down at Hayato; she shakes her head and then shrugs.
"I don't know what I'm doing, but I can say, better than sitting back and doing nothing." She replies. I cross my arms and look up at the doors.
"Go ahead." I move to the side, hiding myself in the dark shadows, so I won't be seen. (Into my right, that there's a conservative shadow behind the doors. Hayato nods, and starts to knock really loudly, to make a strange echo pass through.
Nothing happens at first. Then a loud screeching noise is heard, as someone opens the door. I caught Hayato go stiff.
"Oh My, Hayato, my dear daughter." I heard that familiar voice, which I hate so much. I breathed out, as Hayato gave her a death glare.
"Ester, I see you made it in okay." Her voice is forced out. Ester steps out and adjusts her robe, and gave Hayato a warm hug.
"I was waiting for your return. Oh my, what a beautiful young woman you have become. Any man will be crazy for you." She cups her cheeks, giving her a loving gaze. Hayato face is a poker face. No emotions pass her face at all.
"I rather stay single." Was her reply. Ester giggles and grasps her hands.
"Oh, but you will be missing the most important parts of life. Trust me dear, being in the arms of a man, is something out of this world." She winks at her. I fist my hand, trying to control myself, and not going up to Ester and kill her right there and then, one for killing my only person that raised me, but for giving Hayato those thoughts.
"Is it now?" Hayato respond. She nods at her.
"Come in, my dear, I need to introduce you to someone, and if Mr. Shibuya would gladly join us, he is welcome to." She suddenly said, not even turning her gaze towards me. I arched a brow, amazed that she knew I was here, I am hiding pretty well, but either way, I move forward, and tilted my hat down.
"My lady," I smirked at her and she smiles back.
"Well, now that we have the whole family back together, let's go, I just finished preparing dinner." She steps inside. Hayato gave me a fast glance and went inside, I follow her.
A strange feeling filled my heart, as we stepped inside the house. I move to Hayato side, to see a large ballroom, the stairs are the first thing that caught my eye.
"My, my, luckily I made enough food." She sounded as though she expected us. Hayato goes stiff, when an older man came down the stairs, gray hair and older complex. Well suited, as a business man and firm look. His eyes landed on me for a brief second, then turns to face Hayato.
"Mr. Scot" Hayato mention, as he reaches our side.
"Ester, what's the meaning of this?" he asks Ester in an angry tone, turning to look at her. Ester smiles gently and takes his hand.
"I invited them, please don't get mad." She said kindly to him. Mr. Scot brown eye tightens and turned to face Hayato.
"I'll get Irene." With those final cold words, he turns, heading up the stairs once again. I felt a bubble of anger started to boil my blood.
"Come, this way," Ester mentions, waving her hand, heading for the two large doors on her right. I didn't move, and Hayato takes my hand and I look down at her.
"Hmm?" I asked. She looks mad for a reason, her eyes are tight.
"She's playing with us, Mr. Scot looks very mad; I think she told him a lie about us. What do we do?" she asks, as though she was a five-year-old. I smirked, looking at the stairs, and an idea pop into my mind.
"Hayato, one thing you need to learn about your husband..." I took a hold of her hand and press my lips on it. I felt her shiver a little, and that causes me to give her a full blown smile. That's one of the things I love about her, not matter how many times we are reborn, I still have that effect on her.
"What?"
"I'm quick, I'm quick on getting to the point, just trust me." Hayato stares at me and nods.
"Can I trust you?" she suddenly asks... I smiled even more, and a dark glint passes my eyes, as I said the next line, that would affect us in the future.
"I'm your protector. Remember this Hayato. Trust me with all your heart, but I can't guarantee you a happy ending,"
Mai pov
I'm huge, and I mean huge, larger than a melon at this point of life.
"Here" Naru stated, as he hands me a large warm blanket, and wrap it around me. We sat on the roof, looking out the trees, and such. Enjoying the cold breeze.
"There's a storm coming," he broke the silence, I lifted my gaze and look at the dark night sky. I turned to face him.
"How do you know, is pitch black," I mentioned. Naru lifts his head and gave a sniff of the air. I giggled, covering my mouth.
"You look like a dog doing that." Naru lowers his head and gave me an annoyed look at my statement.
"I just ignore that, and I can smell the air, I have gotten used to that, smell the air." I lifted my head and breathed in deeply. My eyes widen in wonder.
"Oh, you can smell the difference, and its chilly tonight, no wonder," I told him. Naru nods, as I leaned my head against his shoulder.
"Is so sad with Hayato. I mean with Alice." I started. Naru nods at me.
"I know, how you feel?" he asks me. I lower my gaze and rub my big stomach, feeling our child move inside. A beautiful feeling. Those few months ago, when we first felt it, Naru was so surprised, that he kept on touching my stomach every five minutes to feel the baby move again and again. It annoyed me, but I just let him. He looked like a child that just found his favorite candy in a store.
"It hurts profoundly. To think. To think that." I felt a tear roll down my cheek, as Naru lowers his head as well.
"To think that you lost our child." He finished for me. I cover my face, as more tears kept going.
"I'm sorry, I should have..." I gasp out, Naru wrap his arm around me, and gave me a strong hug.
"After I was gone, I am glad to know, that I didn't leave you alone, that." I felt my heart hammer hard against my ribs.
"This sucks, every time we are together, something always pulls us away. When you died, you left me pregnant. Knowing that I had your child give me courage to keep going, as Alice. I loved that child."
"I can imagine. Was it a boy or a girl?" he asks. Remembering that Hayato didn't tell the gender to Shibuya. I rub my stomach, as Naru did the same.
"A boy. A beautiful boy. He had your eyes and your looks. Every time I see him, I saw, are you. I loved him with all my heart and soul. I watch him grow." I told him. Now the motherly instincts growing on me from Alice memories. Naru's eyes turn hurt and turned to face the sky.
"I wish I could have been there to watch him grow, what was his name?" I look down at his hands, on how dry, they look, and rough from all the hard work he had to put on, this last few months.
"Sasuke. I named him after you. He had this bad habit to always grab my hair and suck on it. He grew out of it." I told him. Naru chuckles.
"How did he," he paused, hearing him gulp deeply. I knew what he asked; he didn't have to finish the sentence.
"Hayato kept it a secret, it was too painful for her to talk about, and you respected that. I can imagine that it drove you crazy." Naru nods at me in agreement.
"To no end." I move and lock eyes with him and cup his cheek.
"He... He fell out of a tree and cracked his skull, when he was ten." The memories of Alice and emotions of that day hit me hard. I broke out, crying harder than ever.
"It was my fault. The night before, he asked me to tell him a story about you. So I did, I always talk about you, of how wonderful and strong person you were, as well very gentle and kind. I told him how you could jump into trees and how you can make it as though you can fly." Naru's eyes harden.
"So let me guess, he wanted to do the same thing like his father."
"I fell asleep; the next morning, I found his body on the rocks, near our bathing post, blood already dried up. I couldn't move, nor breathe. The last thing God gave me was gone. My being was ripped. I died a month later, from not taking care of myself. I died of heartbreak, for losing the love of my life, and our child, that I love so much. Is my entire fault Naru. I'm sorry." I cried harder, burying my face in my hands. Naru wraps his arms around me and holds me close.
"Is not your fault. He was a child, and you were the only one raising him, so he was curious, and went on his own way. You can't possibly watch him all the time. You were alone Mai. Kids are very curious and thank you again." His words for a reason cause me to feel calm and warm.
"I did warn him not to go alone, to never leave my side. He didn't listen, and it's my fault. My fault that he died. I'm a horrible mother." I cried even more. Naru holds me tighter.
"Even mothers aren't perfect Mai. It happened long ago. He's in heaven now. We'll reunite with him and with his new baby brother or sister. We'll become a whole family when we go to heaven." He assures me.
"He'll hate me." Naru shakes his head.
"I doubt it, you are so kind and pure, and you always place yourself last to please others. He'll be happy to see you again. I bet you right now, he's looking down at us, or talking to Gene. Treasure him in your heart. Even though in this body you didn't give birth to him, you did as Alice. To give that much to her. And treasure him in your heart." I glance at him with wide eyes.
"Why is it, that your simple warm kind words, makes me feel at ease, no matter what body we are from?" Naru cups my cheeks and stares at my eyes.
"Because we are soul-mates, and your pain is my pain."
Naru pov
Today is Mai birthday, and she is eight months pregnant. I think. I have no idea what to give her this time.
"Another year, another year older. Soon by the time I know it, I'll be thirty." She chirps, as I help her use the bathroom behind the tree. I look up at the sky, to give her privacy. Since she gets embarrassed.
"I would be a year ahead of you," I told her. Mai giggles, as she takes a hold of my arm.
"Up." She tells me, sounding like a child. I lower my body and grasp her arms to help her up. She places her hands behind her back and stretches her back.
"I look like a giant air balloon." She jokily stated as I place my hand on her round stomach.
"At least it's been a healthy pregnancy," I told her, feeling relief from that. That she's healthy as well as our baby. I move and kiss her lips. She licks them and blushes.
"Yeah, one thing I sure miss, since the last two months..." she paused, while we walked towards the waterfall.
"Hmm?"
"Making love. Promise me, after I recover in a few months, you'll go back to it." She blushes, as she bends on her knees, to wash her hand in the water. I felt my cheeks warm up.
"I am sure to keep that promise," I told her. She looks up and smiled.
"Good, now." I help her up, and she places her hands on her round stomach.
"What should we do today?" she asks me. I shrug, looking around.
"Not sure, you can nap or something," I told her. Mai frowns, looking down at her stomach.
"I do that too much."
"Enjoy it when it last, for the next few months, after the baby is born, you won't be able to sleep. I should know, one time, my mother took care of one of her cousins after she gave birth. Gene and I went with her, and I couldn't get a wink of sleep since my cousin's mother, baby kept crying all night." I warned her. Terrible really. Mai frowns, pressing her forehead on my shoulder.
"Fine... You know, we haven't decided on what to name the baby."
"Whatever is the gender, we'll come up with a name. Is not that big of a deal." I told her. Mai smiles and rubs her forehead on my chest.
"Thank God I don't have the pressure to have someone nagging me, to name the baby on the spot. See, you're the best husband ever." She giggles.
"I don't like to hassle around," I told her the truth. She giggles, and moves, to stare at the waterfall.
"I wonder how many months I am really. I feel like eight or nine, I can feel the baby can come at any moment," she tells me.
"I feel it as well. You look like you're ready to pop at any moment, but this pregnancy is just odd, your stomach is so big to have one child."
"Don't remind me, that mean I have to exercise double now. It will take me months to lose this weight. When we see the others, I don't want them to see me huge, but my normal self."
"I'll make sure to give you a strict diet." I mocked.
"At least everything around is organic, so I doubt I will take forever, and as well I can run around, and you can help me. Since you do it all the time. See, you have muscles, that you didn't have before. My big strong man. See little one, if you're a male, be like papa, strong, you when you fall in love, you can protect that woman." She teased. I rolled my eyes at her.
"Then what do we do?" she sighs, rubbing her eyes. I shook my head and grasp her hand. Popping us into our spot, she sits on the edge and stares at the ocean.
"Nothing, relax and think of nothing." I huskily whisper into her ear. Mai closed her eyes and leaned her head on my chest, feeling the smooth breeze brush against our heated skin.
Mai pov
Is my birthday today, and this morning started out so good, but suddenly I started to feel strange, as midday came in. My body started to feel weak for a reason.
Naru wasn't here at this moment. He told me he had to do something, so he left me at our house. Now alone, I wipe the sweat out of my forehead.
"I feel crappy." I thought out loud, leaning my head agent the cool wood that felt good against my heated forehead. Then my eyes widen as a strange pain ran through me. A strange deep pain, that causes me to howl hard. I press my hand on my stomach, and as though I feel like I had to pee.
"Ahh," I moaned in pain, buckling my knees down. Then I felt actually pee pass my bladder down my legs. My eyes become wider, as I glance down, to see a gush of water coming out.
'Wait, water? This isn't good, oh no, did my water just broke?' my mind ran, another pain shot through me.
"Oh God, am I in labor? Wait, no, this isn't supposed to be." I choked out, as the pain started to get to me rapidly. Already burning sensations pass through me. On my back through my front.
"Naru," I called, out, closing my eyes, feeling the blood draining out of my face, as nature pain hits me. This is painful.
"Naru!" I yelled out this time, I had to lie down. Grasping my blanket on my hand. I have no idea how long or minutes pass, but each minute felt more painful than the other. My body felt weak, and Naru isn't here.
"Darn that man, why did he have to leave today." I cuss, breathing in and out; sweat became heavier, as my breathing. My bottom felt like is ready to burst out, I'm not sure if that is normal or not. All I know, I am scared, and Naru isn't here at all.
…
...
"God, please, please let Naru come." I prayed as I scream out in agony.
I think an hour pass since my water broke, and the pain has doubled. I started to cry harder, not knowing what to do. I was alone, and. And...
"Mai!" I heard on my right. I turned my head, to see Naru kneeling down, his eyes roaming my body. Immediately he helps me to sit up and place our pillows on my back to give me a more comfortable position.
"Took, took you long." I swallow hard.
"I was looking for something, since when did your water break?" he spoke, noticing his voice is tight; his icy eyes look calm for some odd reason.
"An hour or two, I can't remember," I told him the truth, and I spread my legs, holding my stomach as another painful wave hits me.
"Ah, it hurts Naru. I'm afraid. Why did you take so long?" I question, crying even harder. Naru moves rapidly and goes in front of me; he immediately places his hands on my waist and pulls down my skirt. Now leaving me half naked. Then place each hand on top of my bend knees. I blushed and tried to close my legs.
"Don't, I need to check." I cover my face, feeling embarrassed.
"Is embarrassing," I cried out. Naru lifts his gaze at me and frowns.
"I'm your husband, not a stranger, why would you be embarrassed?"
"You are going to see our child being born and are not a pretty sight," I told him. Naru arched a brow, giving me a cold stare.
"You still not ready." He murmurs, crawling up to me. He takes my hand and presses his lips on them.
"Don't be, is my pleasure to help you give birth to our child. I won't think about it. Don't be embarrassed." He seems to try to give me courage. I stare at him, and then I let out a scream.
"I... Naru... I am scared," I cried out.
"Be brave, okay. Give me that bravery you have given me before. We have been through so much this past seven years, don't let me down." He tells me. I gulped and I took his hand.
"Do it for our child, and for me. Please, I already lost my brother, in our past life, we lost our son, and."
"I lost you," I added my heart racing now with sorrow.
'I don't want to let him down, nor myself.'
"I'll try to be brave, and give birth. Oh God, mama, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for giving you this much pain." I cried, and then I squeeze Naru hand, as the pain hits me. My back is burning as well as my front. Naru didn't show any distress as I kept squeezing his hand since I took notice how red his hand has gotten.
"Are you afraid? You don't seem like it." Naru drops his guard, and my eyes widen to see tears gather at the corner of his eyes, making them red.
"I'm terrified Mai. I'm so terrified right now, that my heart can't take it. When I saw you like that, I thought my world left me. I can't stand you in this much pain. I wish I could take the pain away." I gave a bitter laugh.
"If you want to help me, then please, give me some drugs, and I'll be good," I told him... Naru chuckles, as tears finally rolled down his cheeks. I have only seen him cry once, when he made love to me, on the waterfall, when he thought he lost me to the lady in the mirror. My heart broke at this his emotional stare. Is seeing another Naru.
"My dear husband, don't cry." I murmured, moving my hand to cup his cheek.
"I'm not crying." He sniffs, as I wiped his cheeks. I bit out a laugh.
"Here I'm about to give birth, and you seem as though I'm dying. Well, I could die, we all die." I told him, facing reality. Naru and I know how much a life is valuable. We know how time is so short.
"I'm a man of few words, but one thing is for sure, I know how life is fragile, many people don't understand that, and how much this love can control us. Thank you for being with me," he gave me a grim smile. I bit out a laugh once again and screamed out.
"Thank you for giving me the best eleven years of my life. The good and the bad." I told him. As many memories rushed into me. When we first met, about how we started to work together and how I fell in love with him. Of how he rejected me, of how he came back, to how we got stranded on this island, and how we got married. How he took my first kiss, and how we become stronger. Overcome obstacles, and how we got remarried again. Of how we made love for the first time, as we joined as one. Of how four months later, I became pregnant with his child. Now up to this date, he always remained by my side. I wouldn't' change it for the world, for all the good and bad days.
"I'll get everything ready. Can you make a little fire for me?" he asks. I shook my head, as he stood. He waves his hands, and all the necessary things came into place.
He bends down and wipes my forehead. I glance up at him and gave him a tender smile.
This story could start with, Once upon a time, on a stormy night, where the thunder roars the sky, and the wind owns the island. We lay peacefully on the ground
Yeah, that's how I should start it. One little problem with that story, though.
"Naru!" I yelled in agony, as another painful wave hits me, tears running down my cheeks, and sweat poured down my face and body.
"If you have to choose between me and the baby, choose the baby." I pleaded Naru glance down to me, noticing the tears running down his cheeks.
"Is that what you choose?" he asks, noticing his voice cracking. I nodded, arching my body up in pain.
"Yes." I cup his cheek, and he leans forward the kiss my lips.
"I choose..." he paused, as he leans in my ear, and my eyes narrow at his words…. And I closed my eyes, feeling tears rolling down my cheeks.
"Naru, don't ever forget, that I love you and will always love you." Naru nods at me and kisses my cheek.
"My feelings for you will never change either Mai. That's what I choose, and that's what I will always choose. No going back." I nodded, giving him a soft smile.
"Now, warm up the water for me," he tells me. I snap my fingers, and fire came out. Immediately Naru uses my fire to burn some wood, that he brought, and start to warm up the water inside the barrow.
Another hour passed, and my labor pains kept increasing. I hope, no I prayed that it won't last all day, not until tomorrow, I doubt I could handle this.
"Naru, I can't take this at all. Take the baby out of me, please. Ahh!" I screamed, arching my body up. Naru gave me a strange look, he crawls back down to my legs, and look down. He looks up at me, and I stare at his blue eyes.
"Please tell me the good news..." I begged him. Naru places his hands on my knees and gave me a smirk.
"Mai, I wanted to tell you something." He suddenly says. I raise a brow.
"Now?"
"Yes,"
"What? You can see the baby head?"
"I do." He tells me, in a matter of fact, noticing his eyes turning redder. My heart throbs at his look.
"Naru, what's wrong?" he shook his head.
"Push." He whispers to me. I stare at his blue eyes, noticing more tears running down his cheeks. I move forward and grasp his hand.
"If anything happens to me, take care of our baby." With those final words. I started to push…
Naru pov
I saw the agonizing look in her face, as she kept pushing. I move to get the baby, helping her. I can see blood coming out, and my heart beats hard, to see my child's head. Black hair and light skin.
"I can't..." Mai breathed out unevenly. I look up.
"Please, you can do it Mai. A little more. I can see its shoulder. Don't you want me to place our baby on your chest?" Her eyes widen.
"I want to hold my baby. I want to." She cries. I smiled even more.
"Then push okay." Mai nods furious and started to push again.
"Ahh." One of the worse screams, I can ever hear coming for her. It pains me to see her in this much pain
'I shouldn't have touched her at all.' My thoughts haunted me.
As the baby came out, I felt the baby small body come into my hands. The baby felt so small and so warm. With one final push, the baby came out, with and the umbilical cord. I move my hand to pop the scissors, which I washed earlier in my hand, and cut it. I press the baby on my chest, ignoring the fact that it was covered with mucus and blood. The baby didn't cry though. I move the baby, and um, well slap its bottom, and then the baby started to cry. I place the baby on my chest and look down to check the gender, my eyes widen.
"Mai, it's a." but I cut short.
Mai burst out in pain.
"Naru... I think; I'm not done." She cries. My eyes widen, at the surprise that God gave us.
I look down, to see her push even more, and I see another head coming out. My heart stops, as I glance up to see Mai pushing. I place the baby gently down. I move and help to deliver the second child. My hands start to shake, as Mai kept on pushing. The same progress, I move and did the same thing. This time as I watch Mai lay back, breathing hard, and I immediately cleaned her. I move to stare at the two babies, which now move their small hands and cried hard. I cleaned them the best I could, and both still have their eyes closed. My heart, it felt odd. Unbelievable; I... I couldn't believe this. I'm a father now. I... There're no words.
"Naru?" Mai asks, breaking my thoughts. I lifted my gaze, to notice her voice sounded so tired her chest heaved, as she slumps down her legs down. I grab the first baby and then the second. I move up, and Mai sleepy look up at me.
"What gender is it?" she asks hoarsely. I blinked, as I look down at my two babies.
My heart beating wildly with a new emotion, a deep feeling. Here thought my love for this woman couldn't grow anymore, I was wrong. How can I repay her? My love for her is not enough, and now, I have two more reasons to be more patience and love even more.
"Surprise Mai, they are twins," I told her. Mai fluttered her eyes open, as I place each baby on top of her chest, on each side. Mai glanced down at her two babies, and fresh tears rolled down her cheeks and glance up at me. She look pale, sweaty and still in pain, but that didn't make her less attractive, nor did it stop her looking so radiant. My heart flutters.
"Twins?" her voice sounded cracked, but for a reason, happiness mix in there. I nodded at her. I move and kiss her chap lips. She smiles at me and glance down at our newborns. She kisses each small head and started to cry again.
"Naru," she looks up at me, noticing that she's about to faint... I move to her side, and press my nose against her head, and laugh, as new tears rolled down my cheeks.
"Sleep. I'll take care of you, and our children." I told her. She rubs her cheek against mine and closes her eyes.
"Thank you. Thank you for everything. I love you and our two children. We're parents Naru." her voice is scratched out, from all the screaming. I close my distance and whispered into her ear. Mai flutters her eyes open and gave me a warm smile.
"Yes, we are. Thank you, Mai, for everything," she nods, kissing my cheek.
"Are they boys or girls?" she asks, I think she didn't hear me. Once again. I chuckled, placing my hand on one of the baby head. Both were now asleep on their mother's chest, breathing deeply. I glance up and told Mai.
"Happy birthday Mai, is a boy and a girl."
Thanks for the reviews: Aww, Mai had twins in her birthday. Lol, so I had to wind up the birth, by watching some videos, and such. Looks painful enough, so I gave Mai some pass through. Lol.
Also, the drawing of Black Lagoon was made by one of my readers. AmyNChan. Thank you so much. : ) God Bless
