Chapter 29: The Time Is Now Part 1

Almost another week had when by since Reina went back home with her parents. Even with Shu around to dote on her and cater to her every need, the brunette with big green eyes still couldn't fancy the reality of being with child, Shu's child. 'Was it a girl or boy?' The girl pondered. Most importantly, was she able to carry out this pregnancy to the end? She wasn't precisely a vampire like Yui was, and she didn't know if she could quite handle the birth of the child either. Shu told her that everything will be fine. He even said that he will turn her into a vampire before the kid arrives. His words only made her more of a nervous wreck and timid. Thus, how on earth was she going to break the news to her parents about Shu being a vampire and their grandchild not being entirely human? It wasn't like they didn't see her drinking his blood before. Over the week she was home, they acted like it never happened.

"You know, Reina, we should probably start picking out baby names for my grandchild. I'm not getting any younger here." Her mother spoke, trying to break the ice between them. She happily sat on a recliner chair and knitted up a baby's blanket for her first grandchild who she was expecting soon.

Reina cocked her head at mother from the couch she was laying down on. "That sounds like a good idea mom. What names do you have in mind?"

Nora placed her needles and yarn down on the night table to her right and clapped her hands together joyfully. "Oh, I was thinking we name it Yukiko if it's a girl or Toma if it's a boy!"

"Mm... Yukiko is a pretty name, but I'm not quite sure about Toma for a boy."

"Why not," Nora questioned her daughter. "I think Toma is a great name for a boy..." she said before giggling to herself. "You know, I dated a Toma for 3 years before I met your father."

The brunette eyes widen as she broke her neck to look back at her mother. "What! You want me to name my son after a guy you dated for 3 years?!"

The lady stared at her daughter with a blank face. "It was the best three years of my life. You wouldn't even be here if I hadn't cheated on him with your father."

Reina plugged her ears with her index fingers. "La-la-la, I don't want to hear it! That was a bit too much information than I needed to know."

Nora picked back up her needle and yarn off the nightstand again and continuously knitted up a blanket. "I'm simply stating the facts, sweetheart. Giving birth to you was the best decision I ever made. You're a blessing and I'm grateful to have you as my daughter."

Reina merrily smiled at her mother. "I love you too, mom... The baby names you picked out are nice, but I think I'm gonna go with the names Shizuka which means 'Quiet' or Eiji which means 'Eternity' and 'Great'."

Nora sighed. "If it can't be helped, then pick whichever name you and Shu-kun can agree on together.

At the sound of a click, Ryuu and Shu entered the house as the house became silent again. They were carrying boxes inside one at a time, and Ryuu looked like he had a hard time carrying them. "We're home," he announced as he dropped the box on the floor.

Reina and her mother walked inside the entrance room and their eyes darted around.

"What's going on," asked Reina.

"Yeah... and where did all these boxes come from," Nora added with a hand placed on her hip.

"As you can see, all these boxes are filled with gifts for my grandson," Ryuu cheerfully responded.

The brunette eyes zoomed passed her father over at her boyfriend. He quietly stood behind the man and shrugged without a care in the world. "Well don't look at me. It wasn't my idea," Shu told her.
