Week Nine – January 8
"Oh my god, Winry!" Paninya called out when she saw her friend. Immediately she hugged on the blonde girl. "Wow, you're showing now!"
"Yeah, these babies are really killing me, though. I think I pretty much slept through last week," Winry said with a laugh.
"Hey, Paninya," Edward said as he walked over with the luggage. "Still a thief?"
"Still a small annoying alchemist?" Paninya laughed. "Come here," she said, hugging the blonde man.
"It's been a while. I think the last time I saw you was at the wedding," Ed said, hugging her back.
"Yeah, before you knocked up my friend." Paninya laughed again when Edward rolled his eyes. "So, Winry, did you get the automail piece done?"
"Actually, I've been banned from working on automail, so I called Mr. Garfiel and he's going to work on it for me. I brought all the parts, but he says he wants me to be around for it to make sure he does it right," Winry explained. "You know well enough that the creator of the automail does the repairs."
"Is this one being built or is it just a tune-up?" Paninya asked.
"It's a repair job for now," Winry answered. "My client decided to get it stuck in a lawn mower. Reminds me of a certain someone I know."
"Hey, I never stuck my automail in a lawn mower!" Edward shouted from behind them.
"She didn't say you did," Paninya said, sticking her tongue out at the blonde man.
"That's just mean," Edward said.
"So, is Mr. Garfiel here?" Winry asked.
"Yeah, he's in the back. Be prepared to tell him about your pregnancy though; I haven't said a thing," Paninya warned.
"I think he'll be excited. I wish I could have seen you guys are Christmas, but I know you were on vacation and Mr. Garfiel went to spend time with family," Winry said.
"It's fine," Paninya said. "Now, go. I'll keep the sperm donor company."
"Hey!"
I apologize for waiting so long to update week 8, but I've uploaded it today to make up for the difference. Yes, I am aware that the summary is a Spongebob quote. I did this on purpose for two reasons I won't reveal :P
