~~Month 9~~

It's the beginning of the final month, and that means our little girl will be here soon.

Lately, however, someone has become very snuggly and protective....and I don't mean Touya.

It was late one night during the early to middle part of the 9th month, and I was relaxing in my nest.

All of a sudden, Kat came toddling into the room. He had started walking a few weeks ago, so he was still wobbly.

When he was close enough to me, he curled up against my side. He rested his head against the bump, holding on to part of the shirt.

I chuckled, rustling his hair as I asked "What are you doing, bud?"

"I'm trying to hear sissy." he replied, then started babbling to his unborn sister.

Of course, Touya started videotaping this and later we shared it with our family and close friends.

We all died internally of cuteness overload.

~~April 23rd~~

I had taken to sleeping in my nest more often, and finally, the day was here.

We sent Kat to stay with his grandparents, and Giran was staying in one of our spare guest rooms.

It was around midnight that I started feeling them: the beginning of my contractions.

As time went on, I felt more and more pain....and at 9:35 am I held my new precious baby girl in my arms for the first time.

She had black hair and red wings, a perfect blend of Touya's current dark black hair and my quirk.

We decided to name her Maya, and the first time Kat met her he became protective.
