"My dear husband, for your information… Your baby and I are sad because… We want to go to Disneyworld. Got it?!" Ashley said, then smiled beautifully Before saying… "Please!!!" with her eyes blinking.
The three can't help but laugh out loud for the way Ashley was acting.
Arthur: "Hahaha!"
Sato: "Hahaha!" While he was bent, holding his stomach.
"Hahaha! Don't worry, sweetheart. I promise we're going there after all is settled. Alright! Now let's eat before our poor baby starves to death." Said Tanaga as he pulled his chair closer to his wife so he could rub her belly.
*CLANG! THUD! BOING!* "OH' MY GOD!!!!" Arthur exclaimed loudly while his spoon falls on the ground. He was so quick to get up and the chair he was sitting on fall backward...
Ashley suddenly covered her mouth when she realized her tongue slipped. They forgot that they had not told her brother about her being pregnant. "Oh shit!"
"I am sorry, elder brother! I was planning to surprise my pregnancy to all of you, it just that…" Ashley said to her older brother while her head is bowed
While Tanaga has his beautiful smile and super proud of his accomplishment that they're pregnant, while Sato quickly eats, after that, he stands up and runs like death was chasing him with his plate on his hands to bring it to the kitchen. "I will gonna go first, and I have many things to do." Then immediately leave without looking at what is happening.
Arthur bends down to put back the chair that fall. When he already seated again, he picks up a glass of water im front of him and drinks it in just one gulp before saying…" So, how many months now? Are married when this happened? You know, mother and father." Arthur palely asked.
Why he asked this kind of thing is because he just knows that her sister is pregnant. He thinks the reason why Tanaga married his sister is that she is pregnant. Arthur sadly waits for the answer from the married couple. While holding his breath, because he is not sure if he would pity her sister, or be happy?
Tanaga answered Arthur so he will believe more. "Ahem!" he cleared his throat first. "In law, I know what you are thinking right now; that is why your questions are like that. First, we are married when this happened. Are we came back from the Philippines, on the way there… I think that is were your nephew or niece made.
" As for our honeymoon, that is why we came back from the Philippines. So I would say that it was just a few weeks after we arrived in Japan. Of course, Mommy Fely and daddy Jessie still don't know about this, cause as you know, we have not told them we are married. So to make a long story short. Time will come, hopefully, sooner. We will say to them in person before Ashley give birth to our child.
Arthur's face lit up when he heard what Tanaga said. Then suddenly stand up and hugged her sister. "Hahaha! Hahaha! Christmas is thrilled. Think about how lucky we are! Hahaha!"
"Brother, brother! Wait! I can't breath and the baby!" Ashley told her brother but still hugging her tightly.
Arthur suddenly let go, then he apologizes. "Sorry, I am sorry! Sorry baby… You're Uncle-Godfather are just excited." Arthur whispered while his head is near her sister's belly. "Sister, I am so happy, I don't know where to put it. However, I'm sure. When Mother and Father know about this, they will fly to Japan to take care of you. Hahaha!"
When Tanaga heard what Arthur said, his eyebrows rose and say," Uh-uh, is what you are saying, right? If that so, then you should not tell them first before Ashley give birth. I don't know how to associate with my parent-in-law in one house; I am dead!" Tanaga said while he is on his forehead, frowning.
"Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! The three laughed at what Tanaga said.

After Tanaga finished fixing all needed to be set in the office, he goes to her wife, where shadowing Celia. He arrived there and saw his busy in what she is doing and didn't even notice that he came.
"Ahem! Love, we will be going to leave in a minute. We are going to accompany your brother. The on their way here. If it is okay, bring it back to Celia, and when we came back, you can continue it, okay?" Tanaga whispered to his wife while rubbing her back.
Ashley quickly listened to him and arranged the paper that is one of her and put inside a folder. Then she approaches Celia that is still busy with what she is doing.
"Sister Celia, I am going to bring it back to you. I am not finished yet, and I am going to accompany my brother to the airport. I will go to finished it when I come back, is it okay?" Ashley said shyly because she is kind of slow, and she has not yet finished on what Celia gave to her.
Celia temporarily stopped on what she is doing before saying," it is okay, ma'am Ashley. What you have done is a big help. Let us just continue the training when you come back. " Then, Celia faced Tanaga. "Hello, sir Jones! Thank you so much for the Christmas party. I never got a chance to greet you that night, because you immediately leave!" And she bowed as a sign of respect to her Japanese boss.
Tanaga smiled before answering. "That is nothing, and it is just a small thing that I wish that could help the morale of my employees and work well just like you and Manager Hoshi."
Celia's cheek reddened a bit because of the praise from her boss. She thanks Ashley first, and because Tanaga is busy in the office with her husband, Hoshi. This just the time she had a chance to thank her boss
"On behalf of everyone here in our department and I am sure other too. 'Arigatōgozaimashita' [Thank you so much!]" Celia said, but this time it is in Japanese.
"Dōitashimashite!' [you are welcome!]"
Tanaga answered while supporting her wife and ready to leave.
"We will be going to leave. See you later, Celia." Ashley said that while their leaving. Little did she know that they are going to be away for a week
Tiny, Sato, and Arthur were waiting in the car. While superintendent Mikito and Manager Hoshi were also there to accompany them, Arthur gives a handshake to his superintendent and the accounting manager when they see the couple comings out of the building.
When Tanaga and Ashley reached the vehicle, the two Japanese men bowed to give their respect and farewell.
"Sayonara sã [goodbye] " Supirentdent Mikito and manager Hoshi said. Once the couple entered the car, Tiny closed the door before going to the driver's side. Then it was time to leave, Tanaga nodded to his employees, while Ashley waved her hand.
Manager Hoshi and superintendent Mitoki were chatting as they saunter towards the building when suddenly, two limousines stopped right in front of the building…
