She traced his jawline with her fingertips while wearing one of the white shirts they bought from the mall earlier. Dozens of shopping bags were on the floor and a few more shirts were scattered on the bed. He asked her to try some of it and his eyes were full because of the view he had when she was changing clothes. He kept his hands on her body and memorized every part of it. She gasped softly with her eyes closed when his hands started to unbutton the shirt she was wearing. 

"Sho, chotto.." She mumbled while holding his hands gently. She is feeling conscious about her body lately. She covered her tummy with the blankets. She stopped taking pills for a month already and she knows she is carrying his child. 

"What's wrong?" He asked and she rested her head on his shoulder, placing his palm on her growing belly. 

"Our little one is here." She whispered. She pulled out the pregnancy test results from the drawer and gave it to him. Two red lines. He can't believe that he will be a father soon. 

She squealed loudly, giggling while lying down on the bed. He showered her growing belly with kisses, taking his phone from the side to call her cousin and his best friend to tell them that they will have a baby soon. He settled her in his lap, wrapped his arms around her waist carefully. He pressed the video call button on his phone screen and she covered her upper body with the blankets. The call immediately connected and he was holding the results to surprise them. 

"Look! Riku, look!" Gia screamed in glee when she saw the surprise. She pulled Riku closer to the phone screen and his eyes widened when he saw it. 

"Is that a girl or a boy?!" He asked and they laughed softly before shrugging their shoulders. Now that Fuyu broke the news to them, a lot of things will change soon. 

"We will visit the doctor soon. For now, let's keep everything a secret. My brother doesn't know about this yet." She said while resting her body on Sho. She just took the test yesterday and to make sure that she is really pregnant, she will take another test later. 

"Does this mean you will go back to Japan?" Gia asked and she looked at him. Knowing that he needs to teach for a year there in France, she might go back there alone or with her twin brother. 

"I still don't know. I want to stay here with Sho but if I will have a hard time with my pregnancy, my family might ask me to go back there." She answered. She is also thinking about her studies. She knows Sho can make a living for them but at the same time, she still wants to finish her degree. 

"If you need help, we are here. We are happy for both of you. We can always think of alternatives." Riku said and she smiled widely while nodding. 

"You two are together now?" Sho suddenly asked them and Gia's cheeks heated up. They are still in Sydney since Riku's business trip is not yet done. 

"We just became an official couple yesterday. We're still here in Sydney for some business matters." Riku answered instead and he showed them the ring on her finger. 

"Take some rest now. Sho, don't tire her out. Remember that she is carrying my nephew and niece." Gia ended the video call already and Sho put his phone back on the side. 

"Looks like no rough sex for some months, don't you think?" She puffed her crimson cheeks and buried her face on the crook of his neck. 

He carefully laid her down on the bed again and covered her whole body with the blankets in order not to get her to catch a cold. She got tired from shopping for clothes for him. He went to the bathroom to prepare a warm bath for her and after that, they went in the tub together. He gently massaged her sore lower back and she groaned in pain. Her body is starting to change. She got out of the tub and threw up in the toilet bowl. 

"I'm fine.." She muttered before getting up from the floor. He gargled her mouth and brushed her teeth. 

He quickly dried her body up and helped her wear her pajamas. He kissed her forehead and gave her a mug of warm milk to ease her nausea. She took a sip and let out a sigh of relief. He held her closer and placed his hand on her belly. He is feeling worried but at the same time, happy. He knows it will be tough for them but as long as it is for their child, everything will be worth it. She slowly fell asleep and he picked the clothes up and cleaned their bedroom. Her classmates will be there for a group review, so he checked the fridge if there's enough food and drinks until tomorrow. He heard the doorbell ringing, so he quickly went to the main door. 

"Sho-san." It was Makoto. He smiled and let the younger one in. Makoto looked around and saw that Fuyu was not there. 

"She's sleeping. She is not feeling well." He smiled and Makoto found this weird. Why is he happy that she is not feeling well? He went inside the bedroom and his eyes caught a tiny white stick on the bedside table. 

"She's pregnant." Sho added and Makoto calmed himself down as he didn't want to wake his twin sister up. He kissed her forehead while smiling widely.
