Chapter 6

Renton recovered from the shock of Martha moving. He noticed a bulge on her stomach. Will walked over, "Remember my wife Martha? Well, she has been pregnant for about 6 months now."

"Oh…Back then, how did you know where to find me?"

"I told you already. Martha told me."
"How?"

Will released a big sigh. "It's obvious isn't it?" Renton shook his head. Will held his hand up to his forehead, "Well, it's like you and Eureka. You both share a kind of special mental link with each other. So whenever one of you is in trouble, the other would know right away." Renton thought back to the times they had together. He looked over at Eureka; it would explain how they sometimes knew what the other was thinking. "By the way, you guys should take a bath out by the hot spring. It's about half a mile south of this place." It has been a while since Renton took a shower. He quickly took a sniff of his armpits. His face scrunched up from the smell. "Fine." He said and began to walk out. Will interrupted him, "Take Eureka with you too so you can all get back in time for dinner." Eureka blushed and Renton's jaw fell open.

"Wah-WHAT?"

"Is there a problem with that?"

"Yeah, she's a girl!"

"I know that."

"And I'm a boy…"

"Oh you're scared of her?" Renton's jaw dropped open further. Will continued before Renton could reply, "Don't worry Renton, you can go with me! Martha will go with Eureka after we finish." Renton thought about it and looked over to Eureka who in turn nodded. "Alright." Renton said.

"Good! Let's go right now while we wait for the soup to finish!" Will finished and with that he thumped Renton on the shoulder. "OW!" Renton cried as he writhed to the floor. Eureka rushed over, "Renton! " Will's face was full of confusion. "Sorry!" He cheerfully apologized. With Eureka's help, Renton got back up and grunted "It's OK, just don't do that again." "No problem!" Will responded and with that, they left the house leaving Eureka and Martha by themselves.

Eureka looked over to Martha and then at her pregnancy. She thought to herself, "She has a baby like Talho too!" Martha noticed Eureka staring and signaled her over with her finger. Eureka walked over slowly. Martha patted the palm of her hands on her stomach, "Come here. Listen closely." Eureka came up and lightly placed her head upon Martha's stomach. She could hear a slight noise. It was warm to her face. She jumped back as she felt a sudden movement in the stomach. "It moved!?!" She gasped.
