115 – Smoothly (5)

If you ask how it feels to have your first child as twins,

He said he wouldn’t be able to spit out any answers.

With that thought in mind, Evan sighed deeply as he looked at her empty space.

The reality is that she is afraid that she can handle it with just one child, but twins.

“Twins are probably fraternal. One man and one woman. Wow.”

Ropena, who was running around Evan’s side, giggled.

Who told you to work so hard? I thought you would be careful

When it comes to dating, it seems that two people are more foolish than I thought.

So what will the unborn children call themselves? Aunt?

Lo Pena, who frowned at the title that made her look slightly older, glanced at her Evan and opened her mouth.

“How are you feeling? You are the father now.”

“…Nice, but a bit heavy.”

The shallow breath is blown away by the wind. Fragments of clouds floating in the sky are broken into small pieces by the wind,

Evan, who was staring at her disappearing clouds, shrugged her shoulders and smiled dejectedly.

She was heavy. I am happy with the sudden arrival of a child,

I was a little afraid that she would be able to do well. Besides, there is still one difficulty left.

As Evan’s expression darkened as he recalled the existence of the duke,

Recognizing Evan’s thoughts, Lopena coughed and sat down next to Evan.

“I’m sure everyone is hushing up. If the duke knows, it won’t be strange to do anything to the knight.”

“Should I even go so far as to kill him?”

“You never know. Go back to her eyes and catch the knight and lock her up.”

If you think about it, that is also true, Evan looked at Pena with her body trembling.

If the duke did that, wouldn’t Irene stop it…?

Now that he really was a man to be a father-in-law, if he tried to catch him, there was nothing left but to be caught.

Evan, who noticed that it was strange that the duke was so quiet all this time, looked at Lopena and opened her mouth just in case.

“Could it be that the Duke still doesn’t know?”

“You don’t know. If you know, driver, you can’t be here. Seriously, what do you think of living in the imperial palace for a few days?”

“No, nobody told you?”

“Do you really need a drill? Well, originally, it would be correct to inform you… But I don’t really want the duke to make noise with all the people. It’s because they’re all cheering for the lady and the driver. It’s obvious what will happen if the Duke finds out.”

She thought it was a little awkward that nothing had happened,

Evan laughed at the fact that no one had even informed the duke of Irene’s pregnancy.

Is this okay…? Of course he got himself into trouble, but

Still, does the person who is Irene’s father not have to know that she is pregnant yet?

‘I have no reason to tell you.’

I knew how the Duke wanted to take care of his daughter,

Evan swallowed his saliva and closed his eyes. He had no intention of telling himself.

I could get caught by the collar of a duke whose eyes went round when I went to tell him, so what’s the point?

So, is he just waiting for him to figure it out himself?

If the Duke finds out after Irene gives birth to her child…

Evan grinned at the thought that she would be quite worth seeing.

“By the way, what are you going to name her? I have a few thoughts, would you like to hear them?”

“Name? Can I already decide on that? I don’t even know if it’s a daughter or a son yet.”

“With fraternal twins, there is only one son and one daughter. It’s not a bad idea to set it up in advance.”

“…What name did you have in mind?”

It’s only been a day since I found out I was pregnant, but when the hell did I even think of a name?

From noble mtl dot com

As Evan looked at her Lophena, her eyes widened as Lopena opened her mouth with her fists clenched.

“I heard. These days, the name Siu is popular. The most popular name among women is Siwoo, right?”

“Siwoo?”

So the son’s name will be Siu Yuris.

It was a little awkward, but Evan nodded her head thinking it wouldn’t be too bad.

Of course, the name was not fixed. She talks with Irene,

Isn’t this an issue that should be discussed with the duke someday?

Evan intended to change her last name when she got married.

By that time, it seems that the family called Fried itself will disappear,

People’s eyes would not be very nice to use the surname of a family related to extinction as it is.

I’m going to get married anyway, so it would be okay to use Irene’s last name as it is and live under the name Evan Uris.

“Or how about Aman?”

“I can’t do that.”

Evan frowned at her slightly. She was an ominous name.

Isn’t she a name that makes you feel like you have to go to a cliff and watch people’s tragedies happen?

Evan shook her head, and Lopena, who was morose for a moment, began to name her baby girl this time.

“What about Essilly? It’s a name I suddenly thought of, but it feels good for some reason!”

“It certainly does.”

Esily Yurisra, a smile was drawn across Evan’s face.

If her daughter was born, she would probably look exactly like Irene.

He would like her personality to be like his own, but Evan just wanted his daughter to be as gentle and gentle as his name.

A lot of other names came up, but in the end, deciding on a name came later.

First of all, I am just entering the 5th week of pregnancy, so there is no need to decide on a name already.

But just naming her child gave Evan quite a bit of pleasure.

“By the way, the young lady.”

“Go to sleep now. When you’re pregnant, you sleep a lot. Will you wake up in a little while though? It’s been a while since you went to bed.”

Could Irene have been sleeping a lot lately because of her pregnancy?

I wish she’d noticed it a little earlier, but she’d better do it now.

Evan, who had captured her heart, stroked Pena’s head and stood up from her seat.

Because of that, Pena bit her tongue and glanced at her Evan.

“Ugh.”

“I need to go see the lady. Are you going to Mr. Chris?”

“Oh, you bit your tongue. Shall I tell Duke Hak?”

“…Sorry.”

She wondered how her condition had come to be this way, as she pouted her lips at Lopena’s bruise and Evan brushed his cheek.

She said that Irene was sleeping, and she couldn’t do much for herself in that situation.

Leaving Pena behind, Evan headed to a study she had never heard of before.

“What are you focusing so much on?”

At Chris’s words, Evan shook her head slightly instead of answering.

She wanted to be of some help to Irene, so she looked for a book.

She also had a lot of shortcomings compared to the knowledge she knew.

I once sought out her knowledge to help her mother a little when her brother was born.

She wondered if she would do well to rely on that knowledge.

“I’ve been looking for things to help the lady take care of herself, but I can’t seem to find anything like I thought.”

“Isn’t it obvious? People who have taken care of children know more accurately than books. Listen to him-“

Chris pointed his finger at himself.

As Evan stared blankly at that scene, Chris, who patted Evan hard on the back, scratched his cheek in embarrassment and continued talking.

She traveled to many battlefields as a knight and raised a child in the process.

She even took care of a newborn baby, so hearing about it made Evan look at Chris with her new eyes.

That clogged person raises a child, Ra.

I’m sure he was trying to give a sword to a kid who couldn’t even walk yet.

Feeling Evan’s gaze, Chris clenched her fist, and Evan giggled and put the book down.

It doesn’t suit you, but talking this far doesn’t mean you’re going to help.

When Evan made a serious expression, Chris let out a deep sigh and quietly opened his mouth.

“It is quite common to meet pregnant women on the battlefield. There are people who were taken prisoner, and there are times when I meet pregnant women in the process of defending the village. I even helped give birth once.”

“Is that so?”

“For you, childbirth is still in the distant future, but the most important thing in the early stages of pregnancy is not to be stressed. At least you’ll have to keep an eye on it until it starts to swell.”

Stressra, Evan nodded, pulled out a piece of paper, and started writing down Chris’s words.

I was going to listen to it lightly, but it was surprisingly quite helpful.

It’s natural to be stressed, but a smile leaked out of Chris when he talked about other foods to be careful of.

Isn’t it like a grandfather who wants to see his grandchildren?

“If the child is born, would it be all right for me to call Sir Chris Grandpa?”

“Grandpa? Well, there’s nothing stopping him from calling. Grandpa.”

“It’s nice, I’ll just call you Grandpa.”

His heart warmed for some reason as he imagined little children calling Chris their grandfather.

Evan tilted her head with a languid smile.

I never expected to have a serious discussion with Sir Chris about something like this, but…

I thought that the fact that I couldn’t predict a single thing in the world was just right.

“Surprisingly helpful.”

“I know better than most ladies-in-waiting. It’s because I was the first to become friends with Lopena.”

“I’ve always wondered, how did you become friends with Lopena?”

Chris’ appearance was a little grim.

She had a face that, to put it mildly, would scare children.

She doesn’t look like she’s kind even though she speaks softly, doesn’t it?

Lofena first came to her duchess when she was about 7 years old, and she was just curious how the hell she got close to Chris.

“Just, what. It was simple. Because all I gave was sweets.”

Chris smiled fondly as he remembered the first time he met Lopena.

She came to the duke’s house led by Irene’s hand, but she had no connection whatsoever.

Chris then handed Lopena a piece of her chocolate that was in her arms.

She was handed a slightly melted chocolate, and Lopena widened her eyes at the sweetness of her chocolate, which she had tasted for the first time in her life.

She wasn’t as clever then as she is now.

As Chris smiled bitterly and stroked her chin, Evan looked at Chris and opened her mouth.

“That’s why Lopena likes chocolate. Because Sir Chris gave it to me first.”

“Yes. But until when will she call me Sir Chris? I’m not even a knight anymore.”

“I get confused sometimes too, so now I’ll just call you Sir Chris. If you are dissatisfied, did you order him to return to work and change his name?”

“A cheeky fellow.”

“You didn’t learn everything from Sir Chris, did you?”

At that, Chris laughed, and Evan followed suit and met his gaze.

I came here to read a book, but why didn’t we just talk like this again?

But it wasn’t all that bad, so Evan decided to just enjoy the moment.

“I suddenly want something sweet. And the bread… I guess I’m going to become a pig.”

When Irene stopped saying a word, Evan hurriedly ran out of the duke’s residence and searched for something sweet.

With the clearly divided A and B, neither Irene nor Evan had any particular intention, but from a certain moment, Evan unknowingly followed Irene’s words.

‘Because I made her pregnant.’

To be more precise, wouldn’t it be because of the sense of responsibility nestled in a corner of his heart?

Looking at Irene, who is always tired these days, what Evan felt was the pain that made her heart ache.

I wish I could do a little more for you, but what can I do?

It was funny that there were only two masters in the empire going around town to buy bread, but

Most people laughed at Evan’s appearance, saying he was fresh.

“I ran out of bread.”

“Then can’t you bake a cake?”

Even if I said it myself, I knew it wouldn’t make sense, but

Evan, whose head was filled with only the words Irene said she wanted to eat sweets, said it without hesitation.

Every time Irene tries to swing her sword, she and Lopena try to stop Irene from exercising,

Darjeeling is also not good, so she won’t let me drink it.

She can’t stop Irene from eating even what she wants to eat,

Evan tried to accommodate Irene’s convenience as much as possible.

“Aren’t you pushing yourself too hard? You don’t have to.”

“It’s okay. I do it because I like it.”

Even when Irene looked at Evan as if she were sorry, Evan just shook her head with a bright smile.

Is it okay for her to adjust everything herself like this?

She was slightly dissatisfied that she couldn’t drink the darjeeling she usually drank, but she didn’t harbor any other feelings about it.

She just doesn’t drink because it’s bad for the child,

Besides, she hasn’t restrained herself since she heard that excessive exercise isn’t good for her.

Although she was frustrated, Irene didn’t get the slightest stress from it.

Couldn’t it be that Evan cared about that, so she went around so hard,

Even if I send her suspicious glances, all I get back is a smile. In the end, Irene smiled and stroked her still unswollen stomach as if it were her habit.

Will I hear the sound of my heart from inside one day? If this belly swells a little more and grows like a balloon,

What kind of feelings will she have at that time? She was a little scared at the thought of giving birth to twins, but

She felt her anticipation for the many things she would experience after that a little higher.

“If there is anything else you want-“

“Hmm, what do you think I want?”

“…Well.”

She stopped stroking her belly, Irene, she looked at Evan standing stiffly in front of her and she let out a deep sigh.

Whoever sees her will mistakenly think that she is a sinner. If that’s what you want,

Irene said that she most wanted Evan to be by her side.

Now, as the winter gets a little deeper, we will spend less and less time together.

I wanted to spend this kind of time for a little longer.

“Standing like that would be bad for the baby.”

To be honest, babies don’t even know the existence of their father or mother yet,

Evan was startled by those words and loosened her posture.

But she’s still in a very awkward posture, so Irene smiled at Evan and sat down on the bed and patted the seat next to me.

“Sit here. I can’t eat this because my arm hurts.”

As Evan gently lifted the piece of cake she bought, Evan only then hesitated and she sat down next to Irene.

She said Irene put the spoon in her Evan’s hand, and Irene opened her mouth slightly as she saw Evan holding her spoon.

“Ah-“

Evan giggled when he saw Irene closing her eyes and opening her mouth as if she begged for food.

The tension in the body, which had been a little stiff, was released, and the mind became more comfortable.

After savoring the cake that Evan had scooped up for her, Irene laughed at the sweet taste on her tongue.

Maybe it’s not the cake that’s really sweet, but this moment of being together.

Evan, who wiped the whipped cream off her lips, licked her finger, and Irene’s face instantly turned red.

On the one hand, I was a little worried that I would have to tell my father about this one day…But that wasn’t the case now.

Irene, she is the happiest she is at this moment.
