chapter 5
Lion-o and Liosia were very affectionate relationship. Lina was angry she wanted to be Lion-o's sweetheart. She was jealous seeing Lion-o and Liosia walking everywhere hugging and kissing and being all lovey dovey.
"That should be me," Lina said under her breathe.
Lion-o and Liosia loved each other very much. So much that Claudius organized for Liosia to bunk in Lion-o's room with him in hopes of bringing them closer and in hopes of marriage.
Liosia got all her stuff in Lion-o's room and they were looking forward to more time together.
That night Lion-o got undress as did Liosia and they laid down together and fell asleep. Lion-o woke up and smiled at Liosia who was resting peacefully in his arms. "Good morning Liosia," Lion-o said.
"Good morning to you too," Liosia said.
They got dressed and met the others at breakfast.
A few weeks had passed. Things have changed now Lion-o and Liosia are engaged. Today Liosia was petting Snarf and she felt sick and grabbed the bin and threw up. "I think I need to see Kali," she said. Then left to see the healer. In the office she saw Cheetara waiting.
"Hey Cheetara you not feeling well either?" Liosia asked.
"No, you too?" Cheetara asked.
"Yes I feel queasy," Liosia said.
"Hello Cheetara and Liosia come in you two," Kali said.
"I'm not feeling too well," Cheetara said.
"Neither am I," Liosia said.
"Tell me everything you two and try to be specific." Kali said.
Liosia and Cheetara explained what was going on. "Well you two, after listening to everything and examining you both, I say you both are pregnant." Kali said.
Cheetara and Liosia were shock and happy at the same time. "This quite a shock," Cheetara said.
"You said it not me," Liosia said.
"Don't worry I know both of you will be wonderful mothers and your fiancees will be great fathers," Kali said.
"Thanks Kali," Cheetara said.
"Yes thank you," Liosia said.
"I better go tell Tygra the good news," Cheetara said.
"I better go tell Lion-o too," Liosia said. "You know what this means after the wedding we will be the aunts of each other's children," she said.
"Yes will let's hope all goes well," Cheetara said.
The two of them left to go tell their fiancees.
Liosia went out to the garden and looked at the flowers. She saw Lina glaring at her. "Is something wrong?" Liosia asked.
"You are what's wrong you shouldn't be with Lion-o," Lina said.
"But Lina, Lion-o and I are in love." Liosia said.
Lina growled and started to attack.
Liosia was trying avoid the fight and protecting her middle. She was knocked to the ground.
"Lina stop," Lion-o said coming up.
"Lion-o why her and not me?" Lina said.
"Lina why won't you move on?" Lion-o asked help Liosia up.
"It's like this when I try to ask other guys out they don't notice me and you are only one who does," Lina said.
"Well keep searching I'm sure the right guy for you is out there somewhere," Liosia said.
"Thanks Liosia and I'm sorry," Lina said.
"It's okay," Liosia said. "Lion-o I have something to tell you," she said.
"What is it?" Lion-o asked.
"I'm pregnant," Liosia said.
"This wonderful," Lion-o said hugging her.
"I'm so sorry I didn't know," Lina said.
"It's okay Lina, you just were in jealous rage I completely understand." Liosia said.
"Thanks," Lina said then left in better spirits.
"Come on we have to tell father, Tygra and Cheetara," Lion-o said.
"Cheetara already knows," Liosia said.
"Oh why?" Lion-o asked.
"You'll see," Liosia said.
"Okay." Lion-o said.
They found their family in the throne room.
"So what do you boys have to tell me?" Claudius said.
"Father and Lion-o, Cheetara is pregnant with my baby," Tygra said.
"That's wonderful!" Lion-o said.
"I'm going to be a Grandfather!" Claudius said.
"Well guess what Liosia is pregnant too," Lion-o said.
"Well this some day I'm going to have two wonderful grandchildren," Claudius said.
