Chapter Text
Yachi and Kuroo had been together for 3 years now. Kuroo, courted Yachi when she was in her freshman year in Tokyo University after 1 year in their relationship they moved in together. Those were the happiest days of their life. Everyone was jealous of their relationship. Everyone thinks that they will end up together and have kids. Their friends think that after Yachi’s graduation, Kuroo will propose to her. But that’s just what everyone thinks.
Now, Yachi is in her last year of college and Kuroo is working and now part of the Japan Volleyball Association’s sports promotion division.
What will happen to them?
Only 4 more days and Yachi’s now out of college and it’s been 3 weeks since Kuroo has been avoiding her.
‘What’s happening to him?’ She thought to herself is there something wrong? Did She do something wrong that makes him act like this?
Overthinking. Yachi, hates it. She has gotten rid of those since highschool. Thanks to the volleyball team and Kuroo, that made her who she is today. Brave, smart, and competitive.
“I’m going to leave now.” Kuroo said as he put on his shoes. Isn’t his job starting at 8? It’s only 6 A.M. in the morning.
“But, it’s too early. I haven’t made you some food and you didn’t even touch your breakfast.” Yachi said. While looking down. Kuroo, didn’t mind it.
“I can grab a bite outside. I’ll leave now. Don’t forget to lock the door.” Kuroo said, hurrying. No kiss? He always kisses her goodbye.
Overthinking really kills people.
After, Yachi cleaned out the dining table. Her stomach is kinda betraying her and her throat feels like she’s going to throw up anytime soon. She felt sick.
The next thing she knew. She’s now in the bathroom. Throwing up like a drunk girl after 6 shots of strong alcohol.
What the? I haven’t eaten yet. She thought to herself. She thinks again.. her period hasn’t been arriving yet and it’s been what? 1 week and 2 days?
To make things sure. She went to their room, got dressed, took her bag and went out to buy something.
I need to know.
1 hour later...
Yachi, is now looking at the pregnancy test that has two lines in it. Positive. She’s pregnant with Kuroo’s baby.
Her mind is bombarded with questions to herself.
Is she ready for this?
Can she consider abortion if Kuroo’s not ready yet?
Will it be a girl or a boy?
I hope it’s a boy.
Erased that. Any gender is okay with her as long as he or she is a healthy baby.
She really doesn't know what to do upon learning that she is pregnant. She is happy and nervous at the same time. But, 80% of it is that she is happy and she is having a baby with the love of her life.
Now, there's a life inside her and soon will be growing. She must take good care of herself and this life.
She’s now in the living room. Looking at her phone, should she tell her mom the news? Screw that. She thought. She deserves to know!
She picked up the phone and dialed her mom’s phone number.
“Hello?” Her mom said in the phone call.
“Mom, I have to tell you something.” She said.
“Oh is it about graduation, honey? Or the offers that you’re having. Some companies in the states asked me and they said they would be ecstatic to have you.” Her mom asked.
“No, mom.” She sighed. She forgot that she had a lot of offers and she hadn’t told Kuroo about it yet.
“Then what is it, Honey?” Her mom quietly asked.
“Mom, please. Don’t freak out, okay?” She’s now gathering the strength to tell her mom about her news.
“You’re getting me worried, honey. Come on, spill it now.” Her mom said in a nervous tone. You can feel in the phone call that her mother is having a cold sweat.
“I’m pregnant, mom.” Yachi said in a serious tone.
“Oh! I thought it was something serious. I mean you’re just preg—!! Pregnant!? You mean, I’m going to be a grandmother? Yachi, since when did you know about this? What’s the gender? When are you due? Have you gone to the Doctor? How many weeks are you? Does Kuroo know about your pregnancy? Is he the father?” Her mom bombarded her with questions.
“Yes, mom. I am Pregnant. Yes, you’re going to be a grandmother. Just earlier now, I took a pregnancy test and saw two lines which means positive. I don’t know about it yet. I haven’t gone to the doctor. No, he doesn’t, I’ll tell him after the graduation. We have a celebration, right? Yes, he is the father, mom.” She answered her mom’s questions calmly.
“Okay, Thank god. Please I hope you tell Kuroo about this, Honey. He deserves to know and I can’t wait for the wedding bells. Also , don’t forget about the offers that're knocking on your door!” Her mom exclaimed on the phone the feeling of excitement she receives from her really calms her mind.
“Okay…” she mumbles on the phone. Her mom became her best friend, she took the pregnancy calmly.
Is she really that excited to have a Grandchild?
“But, Honey. I’m still worried about you. You have to take care of yourself, okay? You now have a life inside you. Go get yourself checked, I have a friend around Tokyo who’s an OB. I’ll contact her and set an appointment. I’ll be in Tokyo. Soon. I love you, Honey. Update me about everything okay?” Her mom told her through the phone gently. You can feel the warmth and care in her voice.
“Thank you, mom! I will. I love you, too and take care.” Yachi said, ending the call. There’s a tear that slipped in her eyes. She can’t believe that this is the start of her new life with her bundle of joy that is growing inside her tummy. Now, she can finally plan the surprise for Kuroo.
She phoned Kiyoko to tell her the news about her bundle of joy and of course plan something.
Yachi:
Kiyoko-senpai, I have something to tell you, can you come meet me up at our favorite cafe.
Kiyoko:
Yachi-chan! How are you? I miss you so much!!! Thank god you texted me. I was planning to text you! But, you have the perfect timing. I’ll see you later. I’ll be there. See you later.
Yachi:
Okay, Thank you Kiyoko-senpai, I can’t wait to see you and tell you something you’ll be excited about as soon as you know.
Kiyoko:
We’ll see about that! Take care and see you.
Yachi:
Take care and See you later!
Yachi can't wait to tell her best friend that she’s going to be a Godmother of this little life inside her. All the sadness earlier from what Kuroo did to her became nothing. She’s just really excited for what’s coming to her.
Yachi took a shower while listening to some classical music. She never felt amazing like this before.
I Can't wait. She thought to herself but a surprise is a surprise, so she will hide it for a mean time after all her Graduation is 4 days away. It will be an easy preparation since she already reserved a restaurant and invited some of their friends. Her graduation party will become a get together and a reunion of old friends. Just like the old times from Tokyo Summer Camp.
At the coffee shop.
Kiyoko is looking at the pregnancy test that Yachi showed her then looked at Yachi.
Yachi told her everything from what happened earlier except from the part of Kuroo, giving him a cold shoulder. She doesn’t want to make her best friend, worried about their relationship.
Back to the Pregnancy test. Then to Yachi. It repeated until it sinked in Kiyoko ‘s mind.
Her best friend is Pregnant!
Yachi’s Pregnant.
“YOU’RE PREGNANT!!!” Kiyoko, screamed inside the coffee shop. She needs to calm down, Kiyoko thought to herself if it wasn’t for her husband who influences her for being loud and open she could’ve been calm in receiving this news. But, hey she loves her husband and she’s glad that she married Tanaka.
People are now looking at the table of Yachi and Kiyoko. They apologized from the sudden commotion. Some smiled at them and mouthed the word ‘congratulations’ to Yachi.
Yachi, smiled at the strangers who congratulated her and mouthed the word ‘thank you.’
Now that, the people are no longer looking at them. She faced Kiyoko and Yachi can’t believe that her best friend is crying while looking at the pregnancy test that Yachi showed to her.
Her right hand wiped the tears that’s streaming down her face. She can’t believe that her best friend who she was protecting back in the day is now carrying a life that she will protect forever.
“Does Kuroo know about this?” Kiyoko asked.
“Not yet, I want it to be a surprise. Tomorrow, We are going to have a get together with some friends and I’ll announce it to them and tell them my plan. I already texted some of our friends. Kuroo doesn't know about this get-together.” Yachi informed Kiyoko.
“Okay! I’m so excited!!! I’ll tell my husband to get some presents for you. Why not all the team get you presents! You deserved this. Kuroo’s always been my favorite for you, I know that he will look after you.” Kiyoko said, smiling at Yachi. She just can’t explain the happiness that she’s feeling for her best friend.
“You and the men don’t have to get me presents. Just you and their presence is okay!” Yachi said shyly.
“Okay, will get you some presents at your graduation party then.” Kiyoko said.
“That’s more like it.” Yachi smiled.
“Okay, so for the plan for tomorrow and at your Graduation Party...” Kiyoko changed the subject, now talking about their plan on how to tell their friends the news and how to surprise Kuroo.
They lasted for just an hour of planning. They didn’t become managers of the volleyball team just because they're pretty, it’s because they are organized and hands on. That’s why it went easy for them.
It’s only 1:30 PM when Yachi’s mom texted her.
Mom:
I texted my friend who’s an OB and she said that she would be pleased to check on you, today. Perhaps maybe 2:20 PM onwards? Are you free that time, Honey?
Yachi:
Thank you, Mom. Yes, I’m free that time. I just finished planning things with Kiyoko-senpai. I’ll ask her to accompany me so that you don’t have to worry.
Mom:
Thank god, you have Kiyoko-chan with you. Tell her I said, hi. Take care, girls.
Yachi:
We will. Thank you again, mom. You’re the best.
Mom:
Anything for my Daughter and to my future grandchild.
Yachi, read the last text from her mom and it really felt good. Having a supportive mom will always put a smile on your face and make your world a lot better.
She put her phone back to her satchel bag. She turned into Kiyoko and asked.
“Would you like to come to the doctor with me? My mom sent me an appointment with her OB friend here in Tokyo.” She asked.
“Well of course! I want to see how many weeks or months you are. Oh my god! I’m going to be a godmother.” Kiyoko squeals.
“Well, hurry then! We don’t want to be late. I’m excited too, you know?” Yachi, walking up first. She never felt excited like this in her life.
Kiyoko smiled. She can see that her best friend is having the best moments of her life and she’s happy that she’s the first one to witness it.
At the OB clinic…
Yachi is waiting for the test results and Kiyoko is sitting besides her. You can tell that both are really excited and cannot wait for the test results to come.
“Congratulations, you’re three weeks pregnant.” The doctor announced it to her.
Three weeks. I have been carrying a life for three weeks!? She thought to herself.
Wow, I hope Kuroo can see this. She thought. But, he’s too busy. This can wait for him.
The two girls are now outside the clinic saying their goodbyes and reminding each other how they should take care of themselves.
Plus, Yachi who is now carrying a 3 weeks baby got a little bit of sermon to Kiyoko but all is well.
They said their goodbyes and said something at the same time.
“See you tomorrow.” They both said and laughed and smiled as they went on their own way.
