Third POV

"Is she okay?" 

"Is she up, yet?" 

"Oh god, tell me she just fainted because of overworking..." 

The entire Himura Industries main building became a sudden battlefield, people complaining other divisions because of their work involving the boss to become dizzy and collapsed in the middle of the work, with Marco's insistent of staying beside Yumiko, no one is helping to solve the battle between divisions. 

Law watched the fights between the divisions, some even thinking about quitting. Boa Hancock's declaration of wanting to be the next CEO was foolish and struck more anger, along with curses and more declaration of quitting. Ace who was standing beside the head doctor of Himura Hospital was always frowning at the sight. 

Sabo was the same, he tried to defuse the commotion but to no avail. Killer on the other hand was trying to make sure none was using their abilities and comforting those who wanted to quit. 

Kidd had enough and left the room, Thatch was sighing and looking over to his superior, Marco who's still beside his wife, who's still unconscious. Thatch came in, stating the outside of the hall as Marco nodded, noted the loud noises coming was from the workers who worked here. 

Law sighed, looking through his makeshift notes about Yumiko before running a hand through his hair. 

Marco who was inside, finally sigh in relief seeing the eyes fluttering open slowly but the slow breathing confirmed that she's completely okay. He got up and sighed before storming out the office, the ever-so bored expression on his face as he looked at the workers. 

"I heard what happened, what the hell are you doing?! Acting like children who had their candies taken away by their older siblings! Your boss is in there, collapsed because she wanted to help all of you and you make it worst!!" Marco's tone shock the ground slightly, before they all lowered their heads, asking for forgiveness. 

"Not to me, to her-yoi.." his calm voice made them sighed inwardly in relief, looking back up to see their superior already up on her feet, tumbling slightly before smiling at the workers. 

"Ma'am!" 

"Mrs. Phoenix!" 

"Lady Phoenix!" 

"Boss..." words spread around as the said woman stumbled towards her husband, clutching onto her stomach as Law's eyebrows rise slightly before the shades of his hat covered his eyes. Marco grabbed onto the elbows of his wife as she steadied herself. 

"I heard what happened, and I'm sorry...I've been pushing myself a bit more since the release of a new office by my brother, and I've been more than excited to be there and start working before the new year starts..." she spoke, enough for the rest to hear as they nodded their heads. 

"I know we've been our ups and downs, we argued like kids and sometimes tried to kill each other" all eyes turned to Kidd who's scowl deepened with each stare. 

"How about we just continue our work, okay?" she tried to ease the people around her as they all nodded and gave her smiles of reassuring before walking off towards their working areas. As she was about to walk away, Marco's tight grip make her looked up to him as he sternly looked over to her. 

"No, you sit and observe and I'll do the rest-yoi" he assured her as she wanted to argue but decided not to, Law who was standing on the sidelines decided to do something with the notes he gotten as he walked towards the makeshift cafeteria, towards Bonney who smirked and nodded along with Law's ideas. 

Marco on the other hand, was sternly glaring at his wife and helping around with labels and carrying heavy boxes. Law would come over so often to bring water or fruits, much to her liking but accepted due to her recent incident, thinking the doctor knew best. 

Marco was heading back from lifting the heavy boxes from her office to his car, smiling seeing she was eating well and listening to the doctor's words. He kept on helping her other jobs as she smiled at him, her ears lowered slightly before she began slouching and more relaxed seeing the laid-back aura started to return. 

Ace was greeting her as he walked by, asking her if she wanted anything while Nami and the ladies kept the woman occupied. Killer would sometimes move the seat she was sitting from an uncomfortable wooden chair to a more comfortable one. 

Sabo came for only confirmation about the moving boxes and workers, Yumiko signing papers and confirming through phone about certain things. Marco watched from the distance as he watched the only things left was the chair his wife was currently sitting on. 

"The new office's designer is already on the line, he said he wanted the exact time of the meeting cause he got a flight to catch!" Vivi spoke as Yumiko nodded, informing her she will be arriving to the new office soon. Vivi nodded as Law walked towards the Phoenix couples, both watched the doctor in confusion. 

"Yumiko-ya, I think you owe your husband an explanation about what happened" his darkened expression made the woman stiffed slightly, Marco looking down to his now slightly shivering wife in confusion. 

"What's wrong-yoi.." his concern words made her looked up to him, lips trembling as she tried to pull herself together, her secret was out and she didn't plan this to happen at all. She planned this when the time was right but certainly confessing her secret to her husband in public space is not the right time. 

Curse that doctor who's also a surgeon. 

"I..I just..I just.." she repeated herself as Marco wrapped his arms around her, assuring her that he will still loved her if the situation isn't that bad. His first thought was her cheating on him but he pushed that thought away, looking down at her now slowly calming state as she looked up to him. 

"Tell me-yoi.." 

"Marco..." 

"Yeah?.."

"I'm..I'm actually..." 

"Tell me.." with a kiss of her forehead, a newfound courage emerged from within her. 

"I'm pregnant.." the stiffness she felt from her husband felt like years before he broke from his illusion and wrapped his arms around her body, swaying slightly as Law chuckled seeing the couple's dorky attitude. 

"R-really?" 

"Yeah.." 

"Since when-yoi?" 

"This morning..." the woman's ears perked back as she looked up to him, he shook his head and sternly told her about forcing herself to work at such state. 

"Will they be a girl or a boy-yoi.." 

"Well..." 

The room freezes as another woman walked in, the woman having wearing similar features as Yumiko stepped into the spotlight. Yumiko escaped her husband's frozen grasps as she hugged the woman, words were exchanged between them before their eyes trailed towards those reading this current chapter. 

"The names Alice, your author and write and creator of Yumiko and some of the other Ocs"

"You already know mine so we just let this out quickly before Alice's power as creator of this book disappears as she is sleeping late, once agai-"

"It's a New Year, damn it!" 

"Yeah yeah" 

"Anyway, we will start choosing randomly, until somewhere in  January 2018 we will held a competition for those wh-"

"For those who wanted to name the baby of the Phoenix couple, all you need to do is guess the gender, and comment the name of the baby that matches the gender or unisex with the meaning. Those who wish to not enter or thinks the other person's name is much more cooler and more beautiful please repeat the names given by them so that their notifications won't be blown off if the name's too awesome or something, just the names, not the meanings, keep the original to the owner, will you? Warning, the name must be acceptable for all and not be crossed with religions, politics and be triggered in some matter"

"Will you stop cutting me off?"

"Nah, so by the end of the 10th January, we will seal off any names and no we will not take the bribing of cookies or anything sweets. On 11th or 12th January I will open a new chapter to announce the most commented name, or if two names are equally voted then a voting session will be in place." 

"For the love of cats please stop cutting me off Alice, anyway, any questions please refer to the comments below and Alice will try to cut her way through it, please be alarmed that Alice is still a student and will not open her gadgets until she is ready so you might want to wait out-"

"Sorry!" 

"Anyway, on behalf of us, we would like to say-

"Happy New Year and may the 2018 be kind with us" 

"Please be kind to me..." says the student named Alice who's having her graduation year played out to her. 

(A/N: Thank you for the votes and comments you've all given to me! I love you and have a nice year!)
