"Mommy! Guess What? Daddy's going to teach me how to ride my bike today!" My firstborn, Isamu, came running up to me as I finished washing all the jeans.
"Wow! You have been dieing too haven't you?" I said chuckling. He smiled.
"Isamu! Do you want to ride your bike or not!" My husband, Rei, shouted into the house. Isamu smiled at me and then ran out of the washing room yelling "I'm coming! Don't start without me!"
I chuckled and picked up the laundry basket. I walked out of the washing room and into the living room. I found my second child. Her name was Shizuka. She was sitting on the couch, reading a book.
She looked exactly like my mother. She had short blond hair and green eyes. Sometimes she would always cry, just like me. But I changed when I met Rei. Now I'm more confident and I don't cry as much. I even got a new job with my best friend, Harumi. She's also Isamu and Shizuka godmother. We work in a restaurant. I work as a chef and she is a waitress.
"What are you reading Shizuka?" I said putting down the laundry basket and going to sit next to her. She looked up from the book and at me.
"Hi Mom. I'm reading the new book from that romance series. This one's called "Pearls of Hope". Strange name, don't you think do?" She asked. I smiled and hugged her. "I don't think it's a strange name at all." I said. I got up from the couch and headed into the kitchen.
I looked out the window and into the driveway. Rei was holding on to the back of Isamu's bike as Isamu peddled and tried to balance. Rei let go once in an awhile and Isamu would fall off. I saw Rei chuckle as Isamu tried to ride.
Isamu was only 7 years old. His name meant bravery because he always was brave. Just like his father. Shizuka is only 6 years old. Her name means quiet. Because she is always quiet and likes to read.
Rei and mine's best friends, Tatsuya and Harumi, are the kid's godparents. They have been our friends since high school and we are always together. They just got married six months ago and had a son named Kichiro. He looks exactly like Tatsuya. It's quite funny.
Anyway, Isamu and Rei called quits and came inside. Shizuka was still on the couch reading her book even after they came inside.
"Mommy! I got a scrape on my knee!" He cried. His left kneecap was all scraped up and bleeding. I reached up into a cupboard and pulled out some rubbing alcohol and a large band-aid.
I applied the alcohol, he hissed with pain, and then put on the band-aid. "Thanks Mom!" He smiled and then ran into the living room.
"How could you let him get hurt like that?" I turned to Rei. He shrugged and the wrapped his arms around the back of my shoulders.
"At least he's not riding motorcycles like me. At least not yet." He smirked.
"Oh no. He's not going to be racing motorcycles." I said.
"Why not? I started racing when I was his age." Rei complained.
"Because I don't want him to get hurt like you did!" I spat out.
He leaned into my face, our noses were touching. "Don't worry. I won't force him. And I don't want him to get hurt either. Do you really think I'm that mean to kids?" He chuckled.
I gave him a kiss on the cheek. He blushed. Even after two years of marriage, he still blushes every time I kiss him. He's so weird.
I sighed and ducked under his grasp on my shoulders. I headed over to the freezer and took out some frozen rice and vegetables.
"I just don't want our kids to experience the pain and suffering we went through when we were kids. That's all. I don't think you're a bad father and I don't think that Harumi and Tatsuya would do anything to try to hurt them. I wouldn't blame you if you called me over protective or called me your mother." I said.
"You are not my mother." He said sternly. "My mother almost killed me. You haven't made one attempt or shown any attitude that you want too. You are not over protective you are just worried about them. You are a great mother. And those are great kids." Rei said to me.
Tears started to run down my cheeks. I hate it when Rei sees me when I cry. It makes it look like I only get my way when I cry. Like what Shiori did when she and Rei were going out in junior high.
Rei came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my neck. "I promise that we will be great parents and we can raise them to be great people." He kissed me on the cheek.
Sappy Ending! Oh well. I hope you enjoyed this first chapter and make sure to watch for the next one!
