Chapter 428 – Expectant Mothers (2)
Artemis is not the only one who is full. I became a father of three children.
“Fighting sports are now banned! It’s absolutely prohibited!”
Seyoung grabbed Nina’s shoulder and harshly urged her. My baby is growing in the stomachs of two women.
Actually, it’s strange that it doesn’t happen even though I’ve been hitting it with no cone like that.
“Aww.”
Nina puffed out her cheeks and made a noise.
“What kind of wolf are you? Give a human answer.”
“Ah, I understand, sister.”
Even the naked Nina became gentle in front of Seyoung.
It wasn’t because she had undergone strengthening surgery, but because she cared for her like a real sister, and she couldn’t go out.
Both finished working out wearing sports bras and dolphin pants.
Although she became pregnant later than Artemis, her belly was sufficiently swollen.
She already has a sculptural six-pack, so even if the gap is slightly widened, it is immediately noticeable.
These are chocolate abs that you touch, kiss, and lick from time to time.
“The chocolate is a little melted.”
“Yes? What do you mean?”
Rose, who was watching the two happily, asked.
“No, nothing.”
Nina looked at me as if asking for a ray of salvation from her determined older sister.
“We’ve already suspended his right to participate in fighting competitions. “Abandon your futile hopes.”
“Oh my!”
“That’s it. Well done.”
Nina is frustrated and Seyoung is clapping.
“Based on common sense, does it make sense for a pregnant woman to step into the ring?”
I knew he was just an ignorant fighting fanatic, but I never thought he would be this thoughtless.
“I will never let you go out into a world like this. Where will my organs not be ripped off?”
She is a tough-minded woman who I need to keep by my side and take care of for the rest of my life.
I crouched down in front of Nina and Seyoung, who were sitting side by side. Place both hands on each stomach.
“It still fits in one hand. Artemis now has to use both hands.”
“It’s early days. But even after just two months, it will start to increase rapidly.”
Rose added from her side.
“No morning sickness?”
“Yes. The laxative that Artemis gave me is working well.”
Seyoung said.
“If there’s anything you want to eat, tell me anything. Even if an extinct animal wants to eat it, I will somehow rescue it.”
“Ahaha, I will accept that with pleasure. “Chloro and the hydroponics team are already working hard to take care of me, so there is no day when my stomach is empty.”
When I took my hands off their stomachs, sweat came out. Rose, who was waiting, wipes me with a towel.
“Exercise is good, but I will do it in moderation from now on.”
“I still feel uncomfortable when I go to the weight room because people around me make a fuss. After having a child, everyone seems to notice and flatter me so much. It was embarrassing for women from factions I didn’t get along with to approach me pretending to be friends.”
Seyoung crosses her arms and sighs.
“There’s nothing you can do, right? Because it’s like a tenant’s fate. “Enjoy the feeling of being the boss.”
“I can’t enjoy it. “I’ve been hit here and there is my whole life, so I feel burdened when I’m suddenly supported.”
“If it were Sasha or Sophia, she would have enjoyed the taste of power.”
“I’m not that type?”
Although she said she became tougher, she was originally a timid Seyoung.
“And Nina.”
“?”
She was blowing on her ionic drink and looked at me without leaving her lips. The mokuldae that moves with a gulp is full of power.
“Isn’t it okay to beat up the residents because of her mood swings due to her pregnancy?”
“What on earth are you looking at me for?”
Nina immediately opened her mouth and screamed.
With that force, a few drops of holy water splashed onto my face. Rose wiped that too with a towel.
“From what point of view. “He looks like a child trying to get into the ring when he has a baby in his stomach.”
“You’re attacking me so shamefully with facts.”
She pouted her lips.
“I was just complaining. Because I know I shouldn’t fight anymore.”
Although not as good as Nana or Seyoung, Nina also had a tumultuous childhood and adolescence.
If Seyoung and I are orphans from Natural Born, would she be a quasi-orphan since she went through multiple adoptions and abandonments?
She wants to give her baby what she didn’t have when she was younger. She is definitely a mother.
Maybe…?
“Why do you look at me like that?”
Nina asked.
“Because it looks good.”
“Hmm?”
Nina was wiping her sweaty stomach with a towel after exercising.
“They say if you sweat and leave it alone, your stomach will get cold, which is not good for the baby. So I’m cleaning it like this. It’s annoying, though.”
Then she stroked her round and crooked abs with both hands. It may be clumsy and awkward, but it is a hand filled with love.
I wish I could watch and learn from Artemis, but I guess I have no choice.
“I will never let this child go anywhere and be beaten or treated poorly.”
Nina said firmly, holding her stomach tightly.
Her fists clenched, and her thick thighs also exerted strength. When her daughter gets hit, she is ready to run and beat her.
Well, I understand because she must have experienced a lot of sadness during her school days. But it’s useless to worry.
“He’s your kid, but he’s also mine. “I wonder if there is a big guy in the world who would dare to bully someone.”
“Um, do you want to?”
“If you run with the ball during physical education class at school, the opposing team’s defenders might rush out of the way. “It would be difficult to get a taste for battalion soccer from a young age.”
Nina burst out laughing, as if it made her happy just thinking about it.
“Are you going to send your child to school when he or she is born? Outside the shelter?”
Seyoung asked seriously.
Like a studious mother-to-be, she seems to already be very interested in her child’s education.
“Well, I haven’t thought about that. First, since there are no children in the shelter, there is no school, and if you send them away, they will have to go to the police.”
At those words, both Seyoung and Nina made complex faces.
This may be because it is too inferior to a shelter in terms of risk and hygiene issues.
“Or you can learn here with a tutor.”
“Chrollo and I will take responsibility for teaching.”
Rose said as if she had been waiting.
“It’s okay. Aren’t they the smartest teachers after Artemis? Teaching is a separate issue, so it might be better.”
Because teachers don’t teach well just because they’re smart.
“I think both of them will take good care of their children, and Rose in particular will be able to be strict when she needs to be.”
Rose cannot be surpassed in this role.
“What about kids? She is an expert in charge of life and publicity. “She speaks really well.”
Nina puffed, her hands cupped like Pac-Man in front of her lips. The universal mouthpiece is a gesture.
“…”
I couldn’t say anything.
“…”
“…”
Seyoung and Rose were also silent.
Honestly, I’m afraid of how the baby will grow up if I leave it to Kids.
Grumble.
As if to change the mood, Rose set up a bunch of drinks and snacks.
Is the baby in my stomach giving me an appetite? Seyoung and Nina luckily ate well. So much so that it feels somewhat wild.
* * *
“Whoa!”
Nina lies down on the sofa satisfied after eating and drinking to her heart’s content.
“I can’t believe it. “I can’t believe I’m becoming a mother.”
Seyoung also pats her even more swollen belly.
“Me too. I never thought I would see three half-children at once. It’s a life you only see in historical dramas.”
“Hehe, I must be busy to take care of things like birthdays and other things.”
Nina grinned and stretched out her foot to pat my thigh.
“How difficult is it to take care of three people?”
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think it will end with just three people, so that’s right. “There is always a hungry beast living here.”
Nina’s toes moved to my crotch. Her red pedicured toes tap her lower body.
“There are three now, but do you know? Next year it will be six or seven.”
It’s hard to honestly refute that.
When I look at the women holding my baby in their wombs, I am filled with desire as well as loveliness and gratitude.
“What’s the problem? There are plenty of nannies who will raise me and remember me. Why not have a dedicated secretary?”
“Wow, he’s a bad dad.”
“As a mother, you criticize Artemis’ attitude, and then it becomes the same? Should I say that couples look alike?”
Nina and Seyoung joined in sarcasm.
“The manager does it so casually that he doesn’t give a shit. Even when people ask me what I should do if I get pregnant, I say, ‘Just give birth. You say things like, ‘What’s the problem?'”
She puffed out her cheeks cutely, perhaps because of Seyoung’s accumulated frustration.
“Well, I don’t know how long I’ll be able to maintain my bloated stomach after giving birth. I might get pregnant again right away! Well, then I’m banned from martial arts again?!”
Nina was startled and covered her crotch with both hands. As if it won’t be released in the future.
It was very uproarious. I guess I have a baby shield. Is it time to get revenge for being manipulated by me?
But I couldn’t say anything about it.
Because I didn’t want to argue with the women who had given me their virginity and even gifted me a baby before my sin.
I have lived a life of always competing, overtaking others, and hating losing. It’s my first time feeling like this, so I don’t know how to explain it.
“Stop! Until there.”
The one who stopped the two was Rose.
“There is a certain degree of listening to a compassionate manager. “You should refrain from teasing too rudely, right?”
Seyoung and Nina also became calm in front of Rose’s stern face.
“And I envy you. “I was born with a body capable of carrying the manager’s child.”
Traffic was stopped in an instant. The atmosphere of trying to make fun of me by using the baby as a weapon is reversed.
“Wouldn’t it be possible if Rose also asked Artemis to do something? They are generous in letting us get pregnant, and if it’s just Rose…”
“That’s not possible.”
Rose shook her head at Seyoung’s words. The reason is the same as I said before.
“For us machines, purpose is very important. Trying to enjoy more than what was initially given is the first step away from the original purpose. That’s irregular.”
Rose held Seyoung and Nina’s hands. And she gives me a warm smile.
“I’m already receiving a lot of consideration, and to some extent, I’m stepping outside my domain. But I really can’t do it anymore. My job is to be a peace officer, not someone’s mother. It will be difficult if more people take the pie of my heart.”
I hugged Rose from behind.
“Machines are very complicated.”
“Sure. So, it’s a machine.”
Side.
Rose lifted the back of my hand and kissed it.
The slight bit of envy that had been showing towards her two expectant mothers had disappeared from her face.
It was always the neat face of a public peace officer.
A thought passes through my head at that moment.
“Could it be for the same reason as Artemis?”
The worries were short-lived.
“Oh, that’s not it.
“I guess it’s just personality.”
Nina and Seyoung immediately denied it.
“Artemis is omnipotent. Unlike me, you will not fall short in your task no matter what burden you bear.”
Rose politely denied it as if she were defending herself.
Clearly, Artemis is not for the same reasons as Rose. I guess it’s just a matter of personality. We can be sure of that.
