"Mama, Mama! Wake up! It's Christmas!" Emma screamed. Marinette moaned and looked at Adrien, as if to say "Do we have to?"
He practically read her mind. "You wanted kids. Well, this is what comes with them."
Marinette sighed. And there came another.
She and Adrien followed Emma to the living room.
"What'd you get us, what you get us?" Hugo asked excitedly.
"Well for one...an article of clothing."
Hugo and Emma whined. Boring.
"Hey, none of that." Adrien scolded gently. "Some kids don't get clothes. You guys are lucky to have more than clothes."
"Sorry," the two apologized.
"It's alright," Adrien said.
Marinette sighed. Adrien was such a good father.
"Save the clothes for last." Marinette said.
Hugo got a scooter, a bike, a science kit, a smart watch, a VR headset, a Nintendo Switch Lite, a pair of bluetooth headphones, and a laptop.
Emma got a smart watch, a VR headset, a Nintendo Switch Lite, a pair of bluetooth headphones, a Fire tablet, a bluetooth wireless karaoke set, a camera, a bunch of Squishies, and a reborn.
"What's this?" Emma asked, holding up the reborn doll.
"It's supposed to be a baby."
"It looks realistic," Hugo said.
"It's supposed to. Women who are going to have babies use these."
"Are you..." Adrien started. While she tasked the kids with opening the presents, she nodded at her husband, who grinned.
"Can you read it to me, Hugo?" Emma asked her brother.
"Try it," Hugo said. Marinette smiled. Hugo was like his father; sweet, well mannered, and caring.
"Pruh...Pro...mote...ed...to big sister." Emma read. "I'm gonna be a big sister?!" She shrieked at the same time Hugo's eyes basically scanned the shirt and he yelped "You're having a baby?!"
Marinette smiled and nodded.
"When did this happen?" Adrien asked while she was busy hugging her kids.
"Thanksgiving night," she mouthed.
"When, when?!" Emma asked.
"Well, I'm already almost six or seven weeks...August, I believe."
"That's so far," Emma whimpered.
"Well, the baby has to grow before it can come out." Marinette reasoned.
"I hope it's a boy,"
"You have Daddy! We don't need more boys!"
"You have Mom! We don't need more girls!" Hugo bickered back.
Marinette sighed and shook her head. "They fight over everything..."
"C'est la vie avec deux enfants." He told her.
"Soon to be three...what are we gonna do about Chloe's New Year's party?!"
"Oh my...we never..."
"Merde!"
Gee, Adrien, I don't think anybody heard you! Might as well shout it from the rooftops into a giant cup!
