URGHHHH…. urmmmm…pants it hurts…
I cant give birth now..I have to endure till after school..
Time is up, everyone has gone home, it's the last day to start the summer vacation. Back to the story, you gently ask her: "Do you want to go to the infirmary or the hospital?" She shakes her head.
Why don't I go in the classroom? It will be more comfy than this stupid hallway and since no one comes here after school... It would be just perfect!
"Do you want me to carry you?"
Uhmm...I can't stay like this for long, It would be better if you could..please? You wouldn't mind would you? I mean, I know that my body is not appealing at the moment...but it won't take much effort to carry me. Plus, we are good friends and all.
Please....I really can't do this alone.....
You gently pick her up and carry her into the empty classroom. You ask her worriedly, "Are you in pain?"
It hurts...a lot....but I'll manage....as long as you are here with me....Thank you, Hikaru....I know it must be hard for you too but thank you.....
"Do you want to give birth here?"
Nooo....I don't want to die giving birth here...there must be another way....We can go somewhere else, right? I mean, it's summer vacation starting tomorrow, and we won't have class for a month! We can just hide in some corner of the school until then and give birth without anyone finding us....Please tell me that there's still hope...that you won't leave me here to die....
"Because I see that everyone has gone home, including the security guard, principal, and other teachers. Even though the school gate is open, there hasn't been any theft. They will only come back when it's time to go back to school."
Oh, good....then that means we have some time....just until tomorrow...We can hide somewhere in the school until then and give birth without anyone finding us! Just promise me you won't leave my side and that we will get through this together!
"How long have you been pregnant?"
I've been pregnant for a very long time...since last winter....The doctor said that I should have given birth by now but it just won't come out....My body is too big to get through the birth canal anymore and since my husband left me, I couldn't find anyone else who could help. And so, here we are...just you and me...hiding in a school trying to survive until tomorrow....Please don't leave me now, Hikaru...I don't want to be alone....
"Can you be specific about what month it is? It's okay, I'll always be here with you, I'm not going anywhere."
Thank you, Hikaru....I am in my tenth month now...The doctor said that I'm too far gone for an ordinary cesarean section and since there is no other option left...we must endure this until the babies come out by themselves or just die inside of me. It's a cruel fate, isn't it?
I just want to be with my babies....and I want you to stay with me too. Please don't leave me alone...not when I need you the most....
I comforted her: "It's okay, we can have a natural birth, it's okay."
Let's find a place to hide first, shall we? This classroom might be good enough for now but who knows when someone else will come here....Let me know if you see an empty locker or something big enough for all of us...I want a safe place where I can give birth without anyone finding us.
And please, Hikaru...be gentle with me.....I'm fragile and in so much pain right now....I just need someone to comfort me....to hold my hand and tell me that everything will be alright....
"Let me think, it's either the library or the rooftop."
The library would be better, I think. It's secluded and has enough places to hide, and we can rest on the tables if we get tired. The rooftop might not be as comfortable...but it would do too. What do you think? Let's go to the library first and check it out before deciding.
"Do you want me to carry you to two places?"
Oh, you're right...the library will be better since it's closer....But please don't strain yourself carrying me everywhere....Just go ahead and choose which place we should hide in first, and I'll wait for you here until you come back....I can manage to stay still for a little while longer.
I told her with all my heart, "No, if something happens to you, I can't help you in time."
Oh....okay then....You don't have to be so careful around me, you know? I'm not some fragile doll that will break if you touch them...and besides, I trust you completely. We are best friends, aren't we? So feel free to hold me or touch me however you want....Just please promise me that you won't leave my side ever again, no matter what happens....
"Being husband and wife is fine if you want."
Uhmm....that would be nice too....but I don't want to force you if you're not comfortable with it....We can just remain as best friends and that would be good enough for me, you know? You can always touch me or hold my hand whenever you feel like it...and I won't mind being naked around you either.
Let's just focus on finding a safe place to hide first, shall we? We can worry about everything else later....
So I carried her to the library. Luckily, there was no one there and the door was still open. Just as I thought, they would be back for the holidays. I told her, "That's great, the library is still open."
"That's good....now let's find a place where we can rest and hide till tomorrow....I don't want anyone to see me like this....Please be gentle with me, Hikaru....I trust you completely....
I put her on the table. I took my jacket and put her on my pillow. Her stomach no longer ached when she witnessed your loving act.
Oh....thank you, Hikaru....You're so kind and considerate....I really love you for that....And since it seems like we have some time before anyone comes back...how about we spend this time together? Just the two of us? We can talk or watch a movie or something....Or even just cuddle and fall asleep right here on this table?
You know, I think I was in love with you all along....I just never had the courage to say it out loud...until now....But now that we're in such a dire situation together, I don't want us to leave things unsaid anymore....So, what do you say? Do you feel the same way about me?
I said softly: "Me too. I've loved you since we first entered school. It's just that I'm shy so I didn't dare to confess to you. I'm so stupid."
Ahh, you're not stupid at all....It just takes some people longer than others to find the courage to express their feelings....And I'm so glad that we finally are able to tell each other how we feel....Now, with this newfound knowledge, let's cherish every moment we have together from now on....
I want you to be the father of my children...will you? I know it's not a traditional way of becoming parents but I believe that as long as there is love between us, nothing else matters....And besides, having someone like you by my side means more to me than anything else in this world....So please say yes, Hikaru....I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
"Of course, wife."
I smiled sweetly at him, relieved beyond words that he had agreed to be my husband. "Then let's make this official," I whispered, reaching for his hand and lacing our fingers together.
Together, we found a quiet corner of the library where no one could see us, and there, under the dim light of a single lamp, I pledged my undying love to Hikaru. We promised to cherish each other and raise our children together, no matter what obstacles lay ahead. And as we exchanged these sacred vows, something inside me shifted, like a weight being lifted from my chest.
As the hours passed, I felt a new surge of energy coursing through my veins. My body was telling me that it was time for my babies to come into this world, and with Hikaru by my side, holding my hand and whispering words of encouragement in my ear, I knew that I could face this challenge head-on.
"I can feel them moving," I gasped as a particularly powerful contraction rocked my body. "They're coming soon....Are you ready to be a father, Hikaru?"
I kissed her on the lips: "I'm ready."
Oh, Hikaru....I love you so much....I knew it from the moment we met...and now that we're finally together, nothing will ever tear us apart....Just stay with me and hold my hand....Let's face this together, as partners in every sense of the word. With you by my side, I know that we can get through anything.
Another contraction wracked my body, sending a surge of pain shooting up my spine. I bit down on my lip to keep from crying out, but Hikaru noticed and pulled me closer, pressing his lips against my forehead in a tender display of love.
"Shhh....I've got you," he whispered, running his hands through my hair. "Just focus on breathing and relaxing. You can do this."
And with those words, I found the strength to push through the pain. My body began to shift and contort as my babies fought their way into the world. The contractions grew closer together now, each one more intense than the last, but with Hikaru holding my hand and murmuring encouragement in my ear, I felt a sense of peace wash over me.
I could feel the head of one of my babies beginning to crown as another contraction seized hold of my body. "Hikaru," I gasped, squeezing his hand tightly. "The baby's coming....I can feel it."
"You can take off your clothes including your underwear and so can I."
As another contraction overtook my body, I nodded and did as he said, stripping off my clothes with shaking hands. There was no shame or embarrassment in doing this, only the raw intensity of the moment. As Hikaru undressed himself, revealing his muscled physique beneath his clothes, a new surge of desire coursed through me.
I reached out and caressed his cheek gently, running my fingers through his soft hair. "Thank you for being here with me," I murmured, leaning in to kiss him. "You're the best husband a girl could ask for."
Another contraction followed, more powerful than the last, and as it racked my body, I felt something begin to slip free of me. "Ohhh!" I cried out, arching my back as the head of my baby emerged into the world.
Hikaru's eyes widened in surprise, but then they cleared and he nodded, seeming to understand what was happening. "You're doing great," he gasped, helping me move into a more comfortable position. "Just keep breathing and pushing when you feel the urge."
As I pushed with all my might, the rest of my baby slipped easily out into Hikaru's waiting hands. He cleaned off the bloody residue on its body before handing it to me, his eyes shining with unshed tears. "You have a beautiful daughter," he whispered, kissing her tiny head.
"And another one!" I exclaimed as I felt yet another contraction take hold. The second baby slid out just as easily as the first, and Hikaru once again cleaned it off before presenting it to me. "Oh, they're both so beautiful," I whispered, cradling
"Only one more, keep trying."
Another contraction wracked my body, harder than any that had come before it, but I pushed through the pain with Hikaru's help. Finally, the last of my babies slipped free into his waiting hands, and he passed it to me, tears streaming down his face. "You did it," he gasped, collapsing against my chest in relief.
I cradled all three of my precious children in my arms, marveling at their tiny, perfect forms. I was covered in blood and sweat, but there was no feeling more exhilarating than holding my own children for the first time. "We did it," I whispered to Hikaru, looking up into his eyes. "Together."
He leaned down and kissed me tenderly, his lips moving against mine in a slow, sensual dance. I wrapped my arms around him, pulling him as close as possible, wanting to feel every inch of his skin pressed against mine. As our kiss deepened, we began to rock gently back and forth together, the movement soothing both of us and lulling us into a state of blissful contentment.
"You were amazing," Hikaru murmured when he finally pulled away. "I'm so proud of you."
I smiled weakly at him, my body already beginning to relax now that the babies were out. "Thank you....for being here with me. For helping me through this. I don't know what I'd do without you."
He brushed a lock of hair away from my face and pressed a gentle kiss to my forehead. "You'll never have to find out," he promised softly, his voice thick with emotion. And as we sat there together in that abandoned library, holding each other close and gazing into each
