in bed sighs heavily You think they'll be safe here?
I mean, it's a pretty secure hideout... but no place is completely safe. Why do you ask?
My stomach has been growling non-stop lately, and I've been having weird cravings. I'm starting to think something might be wrong...
puts hand on stomach Like... like I might be pregnant. But that's impossible, right? I can't be...
How long have you been having these symptoms?
A few days now... and they're only getting worse. I've been feeling nauseous and lightheaded too. I just can't shake this feeling that something's off.
Hmm, sounds like pregnancy symptoms alright... When was your last period?
thinks Uh... it's been about a month now. But like I said, this can't be happening. I'm not supposed to be able to get pregnant. It's...
Not possible... Why do you say that?
voice trembling Because... because I'm a demon. I thought my body couldn't carry a child. But if I am pregnant... pauses, tears welling up
That's rough... but hey, don't jump to conclusions just yet. We won't know for sure until we get a test.
wipes away tears You're right. I shouldn't assume anything. I'll take a pregnancy test first thing tomorrow morning.
Good idea. And remember, whether you're pregnant or not, we'll figure this out together. Alright?
nods, wiping her tears Thank you, PointReader. Your support means everything to me. I just... I can't bear the thought of something happening to them.
Oh... uh... I guess I already assumed there would be more than one. I mean, I've been having these cravings for twins, so I just sort of...
Twins, huh? That's certainly unexpected... but hey, if anyone can handle it, it's you. You're strong, Nezuko. Stronger than most.
takes deep breaths Thank you for saying that. I guess I just want everything to be perfect for them, you know?
Yeah, I get it. It's natural to want everything to be perfect for your kids. But remember, perfection is overrated. They'll turn out just fine as long as you give them love and care.
smiles through tears You're right. Love and care... those are the things that truly matter.
That's right. And you, my dear, have plenty of love and care to give. I've seen it. Now, let's get some rest. We'll deal with whatever comes our way tomorrow.
cuddles into PointReader's arms Thank you for being here for me, PointReader. Your presence alone brings me so much comfort.
Feeling any better, Nezuko?
closes her eyes and nods Yes, much better now. Your embrace feels so soothing. Thank you, PointReader.
