Nakiri Erina couldn't be happier than this, but now she's caught up between a thin border of nervousness and happiness. Whether this News will make her husband happy or the exact opposite.
After spending that intense and exhausting night with none other than her husband, Yukihira Souma, she already felt something strange inside her stomach, and even her whole body! For example, she tends to go to the toilet to throw up for no sensical reason and she sometimes feel something funny with her head, as if she's seeing stars.
Sometimes she could even grip her stomach strong enough to break a brick wall, and for some reason she felt that her clothes tickled her in her breasts.
She's suspicious, of course. Of course she'll check whether she's pregnant or not, right?
She bought a Testpack without her husband's knowledge, and checked it herself. And indeed... She contains a baby inside her belly.
And here she is, right now looking at the mirror and thinking whether she should tell this to her husband or not. He loves her, she knew that, but when it comes to children... She doesn't even know how will he react.
"I will tell him." She mutters under her breath while gathering up enough courage. She slapped her own cheeks with both her hands to get her back on track. "It'll be okay!"
She got out of the bathroom and walked towards their room, the grand bedroom inside their mansion. Souma was never a big fan of mansions, but when Senzaemon offered this mansion to his new 'Grandson-in-law', he could never resist especially when Erina actually insisted.
She slowly made her way towards their bedroom, and slowly creaked the door open. She looked inside and spotted her husband sitting down on their bed while reading a monthly food magazine that he pay a monthly subscription for. He quickly averted his gaze from the magazine page towards his wife, who's standing shyly by the door.
"Hi." He said sweetly, a hint of sleepiness in his voice. She replied with another, "Hi." and she made her way towards her husband and sit besides him, with her head leaning on his broad shoulders.
She joined him in reading the magazine, it tells many kinds of things. Ranging from recipes, chefs biography, restaurant reviews, food reviews, and some trivias in using many kinds of spices and other things for your dishes. But what caught her attention is the name of a company, a company that signified their relationship, The Yukihira-Nakiri Industries.
That's right, the man who's reading the magazine right now is the President and the founder of The Yukihira-Nakiri Industries, where as his wife, is the Vice-President and the co-founder of the said company.
"Looks like we made it into the magazine again, huh?" He said to her, in which she nodded in response. Her cousin also managed to take control of the Nakiri International, which is the sister company of the currently Yukihira-Nakiri Industries.
Now she's getting off-track. She's starting to forget the reason she comes to her husband, fortunately she remembered and quickly got back on track.
"Hey, Souma-kun..." She started slowly, not to surprise her husband for the sudden news. "Hm? Yes?" He replied slowly before averting his gaze towards Erina. "You know that I've been going in and out of the bathroom more often recently, right?"
"Mhm. Then?"
"You also know that I tend to get tired more easily? And how I liked to grip my belly recently?" She asked again, trying to get rid of her husband's density. "Yes?"
"What I'm trying to say is..." She's gonna say it, it's now or never. "I'm... pregnant."
The whole room went silent, Souma froze like a stone, trying to decipher the words that just got out of his girl's mouth. "Wait. Say again?"
"I'm pregnant?" She said it with a questioning tone instead. His eyes grew wider. "You serious?"
She giggled at her husband's behaviour but she can't help to think that he's cute that way. "Of course, I'm not lying. Dummy." She said with a teasing tone. His eyes grew even wider than before, and all of a sudden...
"I'M GONNA BE A FATHER!" He yelled and stood up, also lifting both of his hands to the air. Erina was surprised by Souma's childlike behaviour, but she likes it. He grabbed her and carried her bridal style. Erina gave a quick yelp after being picked up and spinned around by Souma, before landing on her back.
Souma kissed her belly gently, and Erina let out tiny laughs. "Hey, that tickles." She chuckled and smiled at her husband. He stopped the kissing and brought his face closer to hers, before kissing her passionately and with a lot of love.
She's surprised at first, but quickly accepted the kiss and both of them engages in a love-filled kiss, before breaking away minutes later.
"I love you." He said slowly, in which she smiled and replied with, "I love you, too."
"What should we name our child?" He asked her. "No idea, I haven't thought about it."
Souma smiled, "So haven't I."
He's hers, and She's his. Nothing could change that fact. And now, with his Erina, he felt the best moments in his life, the moment he has been waiting since their marriage. The moment when their child is finally on their way.
