The snow was still falling outside the window.
In the living room, Makoto looked troubled as he stared at Ayari sitting across from him.
Ayari seemed somewhat uneasy as well, and in the room, Ayano was present too, though her gaze towards Ayari was very complicated.
"What's with that reaction?" Ayari finally couldn't hold back and asked.
Makoto genuinely felt helpless.
This was completely unexpected and out of his plans.
Right now, he had no intention of taking care of a child, feeling that having the child was nothing but a burden.
But he also couldn't let Ayari get rid of the child.
He said, "What reaction? Since you're pregnant, let's get married and have the child."
Ayari was irritated by his dismissive attitude and thought to herself, I really shouldn't have let you have me so easily back then!
She said angrily, "If you don't want this, I'll just get rid of it."
Makoto felt a headache coming on. "I don't not want it."
He moved to sit beside Ayari and reached out to hug her, but she angrily turned away.
After several attempts, he finally managed to pull her into his embrace.
"I was just too surprised, and not mentally prepared for this," Makoto said.
Ayari immediately felt wronged, "If you weren't prepared, does that mean I should be prepared? We're not even married yet!"
Makoto replied, "We'll get married right away, then have the child."
He comforted Ayari for a while, and finally, she stopped crying and smiled.
Makoto continued, holding her, "I've even thought of our daughter's name. I want to call her 'Miyuki'—having her is my luck."
Ayari, however, disagreed, "What kind of name is that? It doesn't sound good at all. Why a daughter? Why not a son?"
Makoto didn't know how to explain, since, after all, many readers were potential daughters' fans.
Ayari insisted, "I want a son. If you bully me later, my son will help me get back at you. I've even thought of his name."
"What is it?"
"Neji."
"..."
Makoto was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly asked again, "What did you say?"
Ayari replied, "Neji, Hyuga Neji."
Upon hearing this, Makoto instinctively glanced at Ayari and her belly.
So Neji was going to become his son?
Would this be the same Neji from the original story after he's born?
Would Hinata and Hanabi also become his daughters?
Makoto couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.
Ayari noticed Makoto's gaze and gently touched her small belly with a look of sorrow on her face.
Makoto sighed deeply, "If it's Neji, then it's Neji."
Neji was fine, though he had been a little rebellious earlier.
But now, the Hyuga clan was different.
If Neji truly became his son, he would be the highest-ranking person in the Hyuga clan.
Ayari, feeling displeased, said, "Why do you sound so unwilling?"
Makoto immediately responded, "How could I be unwilling? I think Neji is a good name. Let's go with Neji."
After comforting Ayari, Makoto gathered the clan members and announced that he and Ayari were planning to get married soon and would begin preparations.
The clan members weren't surprised; after all, their leader had been visiting Ayari's house almost every night.
It would have been strange if nothing had happened.
However, after learning that his children might be Neji, Hinata, and Hanabi, Makoto's mood became strange, and he began to lose focus when handling official matters.
When Kakashi came in for his duty report, Makoto suddenly asked,
"Kakashi, have you ever thought about what it feels like to be a father?"
Kakashi was momentarily stunned.
This question was a bit beyond his comprehension.
After a long pause, he finally managed to say, "I'm only 14 years old."
Although everyone here was mature for their age, it was still not unreasonable for Kakashi, at his age, to say he was still just a kid.
In his past life, Makoto had been a playboy and had never thought about becoming a father.
Makoto looked at Kakashi and said, "Kakashi, you're not that young anymore. You should start thinking about the important things in life."
Kakashi felt a bit confused and thought, Did you not hear me say I'm only 14 years old just now?
Makoto sat in his office for a long time, only managing to process a few documents on the desk.
........
At Ayari's house.
Unlike Makoto, who was troubled and anxious, Ayari was very much looking forward to the child in her belly and hoped for the baby to arrive soon.
That day, she couldn't contain her excitement and pulled Ayano to the street to buy some baby items.
Ayano helplessly said that the baby wouldn't be born for another 10 months, so why was she in such a hurry.
The store clerk at the baby goods shop smiled and said that many first-time mothers were just like Ayari, coming to buy these things well in advance.
Ayari kept talking to Ayano about all the things she wanted to prepare for the baby.
Ayano said, "You're carrying Makoto's child. Naturally, everything will be the best, and the child will have the highest status. The child will grow up to stand at the peak, just like Makoto."
Ayari froze for a moment and then laughed softly.
"It doesn't matter. I just want him to grow up happy. As for the child's future, let him choose his own path."
Ayano fell silent, feeling that Ayari didn't fully understand her current position.
If she were the one who was pregnant...
That evening, Makoto brought Ayari to stay with him in his master bedroom.
This made it more convenient for the family servants to take care of things.
Makoto had many tasks to attend to every day and couldn't stay with Ayari all the time.
Ayari, however, said she didn't need anyone to look after her, that she could handle everything herself, and besides, she had her sister Ayano around.
Makoto helplessly said, "You may be fine now, but what about when your belly gets bigger?"
Upon hearing this, Ayari suddenly turned pale. "When my belly gets bigger... won't I become very ugly?"
Makoto : "..."
What a strange line of thought.
He said, "After you give birth, it will return to normal."
Ayari, however, anxiously said, "But it will still look ugly for a while... Is there any way to prevent my belly from getting big?"
Makoto chuckled, "If your belly doesn't get bigger, where will the baby stay?"
Ayari furrowed her brows, seemingly conflicted.
She gently stroked her flat stomach and muttered to herself,
"Neji ah Neji, Your mom sacrificing so much for you."
After dinner, Ayari went to rest early in the bedroom.
Makoto was still taking a shower in the bathroom.
He did physical training every day, and with each passing day, his strength improved, which also caused his height to grow rapidly.
Makoto stood in front of the mirror, hands resting on the sink, feeling the soreness in his muscles after the intense workout.
Someone pushed the door open; it was Ayano, holding a bath towel in her hand.
Makoto spoke, "You don't need to do this anymore. Now that Ayari is here, it's better not to stimulate her."
However, Ayano didn't respond.
She simply walked up behind Makoto.
Makoto's gaze followed her movements in the mirror, and he heard a rustling sound, as if clothes had fallen to the floor.
A warm, soft body pressed up against him, and he heard Ayano's whisper in his ear.
"Can you endure it?"
