The Wandering of an Unstuck Stepbro: Multiverse Travel

Chapter 115: Sharing the news

(Ryoto's pov)

The next day Lala got her first morning sickness. It was later than usual, but every person is different.

I held Lala's hair the entire time. It was heard in the entire house as Mikan came to the bathroom, worried.

Mikan: "Hey, is everything alright. I heard a vomiting sound from downstairs."

Ryoto: "It's nothing. Lala just had her morning sickness-."

I stopped talking as I realized what I had just said. Let's just say it wasn't the best way to share the news with Mikan.

I felt a hand on my shoulder that tried to squeeze it enough to hurt me. An angry little sister was behind me as my fianc was throwing out yesterday's dinner. Not the best situation to be in.

Mikan: "Ryoto, what is the meaning of this?"

It was the calmest voice I heard from Mikan, and when someone angry looks calm, then it's bad.

Ryoto: "Mikan, my dear little sister. Can we talk about it a little later?"

She agreed that it was not a good time as Lala's stomach decided that it didn't like my cooking anymore.

Shortly after we exited the bathroom and went downstairs to eat breakfast before school, I needed to inform Mikan and Rito about Lala's status. They are also a family, and we live under the same roof.

It was Mikan's turn to make breakfast, so I waited patiently with Lala next to me. We were visible closer, and it was noticed by Mikan and Utsu as well. Penguins didn't notice anything, but it was because one was a science freak, the other was an explosive maniac, another one was paranoid, and the last one was watching anime.

Rito was in a group that didn't notice anything. He was too sleepy for that.

I saw that Utsu was considering something, and after he decided on something, he walked up to Lala and put his paw on her stomach.

Utsu: "Woof!" (So you'll be born unhorny.)"

...

I don't know what to say to that, so I'll ignore it.

As we were enjoying breakfast, I was thinking about how I should break the news, but after some more thinking, I decided to be as blunt as possible.

Ryoto: "Rito, Mikan, I have something to tell both of you."

I gathered Rito's attention as Mikan already had hers on me.

Ryoto: "I, together with Lala, are expecting a child."

There was a silence, but Private hearing the news was happy, and in this silence, there was the sound of joy filling the air. It was a bit awkward.

Private: "Yay! A house filled with children is a happy house!"

*SLAP*

He was slapped by Skipper.

Skipper: "Calm down, Private!"

He said as he was shaking him by the wings. It looks like he wasn't calm himself.

Skipper: "I'll be an uncle. I'll be an uncle."

He was speaking quietly, but I could still hear him.

Rico: "Kaboom?"

Skipper: "No Rico, we are not exploding the child. These years are over."

Wait, what? Did he just say that they used to explode children? Is that what happened in Danmark?

On the other hand, Rito was surprisingly calm. At first, he was shocked, but it turned into being calm.

Rito: "Nii-san, come on. I almost believed you."

He laughed it off.

Mikan, on the other hand, was judging me heavily. I could feel it, but she didn't seem angry.

Mikan: "What are you planning to do now?"

Ryoto: "As I've said to Lala many times before, I'll do everything in my power to make them happy."

I said, full of conviction seen in my eyes. Mikan seeing it looked me starlight into them to look for any lies, but then she sighed.

Mikan: "*Sigh* I see that you are telling the truth. I think that it's too early for you to be a parent, but I'll help as much as I can."

I smiled gently as I felt fortunate to have a responsible little sister like her.

Ryoto: "Thanks, Mikan, it really means a lot to me."

Mikan: "Don't mention it. We are family, and we are meant to help each other in difficult times."

Rito looked between Mikan and me, confused.

Rito: "Why are you so serious, Mikan? Nii-san is just joking."

Mikan looked at Rito as if he was brain dead. I also did the same.

Ryoto: "Rito, I'm not joking. We went to the doctor yesterday, and Lala is 100% pregnant with my child."

Rito became red as his brain could handle his vast imagination, even though he was aware that Lala and I were having sex. He learned about it when Lala announced after our first night that we had made a baby.

Now that I think about it, did she foreshadow it happening?

I'm just joking, of course, but it's funny how she said that we made a baby, and for everyone else, one and half months later, we find out that Lala is pregnant. Comedy gold that only I understand.

Mikan: "But didn't you take some kind of pull that prevent pregnancy? What happened to it? Don't tell me you forgot to take it."

Ryoto: "Because of something, they stopped working on me. I didn't even know about it until two days ago. Trust me, if I could choose, I would wait for Lala and I to graduate first, but I can't change something that already happened. That's why I'll do my best."

Mikan raised her eyebrow, a little confused.

Mikan: "It stopped working? Why?"

Already used to showing off my blood, I took the knife and pricked my finger, making a hole in the table.

Rito's and Mikan's eyes went wide open.

Ryoto: "I don't know why but my blood become like this. I'm currently doing some tests about it, but we found out that the pills aren't effective. We don't know why it's like this, but we theorized that medicine would have little to no effect on me. I'm not in any danger as the blood behaves like normal inside my body, but I need to be careful about my surroundings from now on."

Mikan: "How long is that a thing?"

Ryoto: "I don't know since I don't hurt myself all that often, but we can assume that it was over a month ago that it turned like this. Lala is 4 weeks pregnant after all."

For the remaining free time, we talked more about the future and how we plan on taking care of a kid since we all will still be going to school.

To be honest, I was also thinking about it, but for now, it's not my priority. I have a lot of time for that. First, I need somehow break the news to my father-in-law, which will be catastrophic no matter how I do it, so I'll prepare for that. I'll train like crazy and have plan B ready. I depend on plan B a lot as the first plan has a low success chance. Other than these two plans, I have nothing. If they fail, then it's the end, but I have high hopes for the second one. It will be hard to pull off, but I have time.

The following 8 months will be interesting, to say the least.
