Ken's mind went blank for a moment.
"Truly?"
Ai nodded, her hands still clasped in his own. Ken could see a mixture of joy and fear in her eyes, as if she wasn't sure how to feel.
"I'm going to be a dad?" He muttered in disbelief. They had spoken about starting a family before, but he never expected that it would be so soon.
Unbridled joy swept through him in that moment. His eyes widened and he began to laugh out loud, "I'm going to be a dad!" he cried out, almost jumping up and down in excitement.
Ai's expression shifted, "Keep your voice down," She hushed him. "It's still early… I want to go to the doctor and make sure first."
At her words, Ken quickly calmed down. He pulled the woman into his embrace, hugging her with his entire being. This was some amazing and unexpected news.
"I can't believe it… We're going to be parents." Ken whispered, still basking in his joy.
