Forever Together

Chapter 86

She thought that she could handle being pregnant with triplets since she'd had two twin pregnancies. They didn't prepare her at all. She was hungry all the time, no matter how much she ate. She was sick all the time; she wasn't gaining any weight. 

Nami and JJ were still nursing, and she still had the other five to take care of. Yes, the guys were a huge help, but they were still her children. They still wanted their mama, and she wanted them as well. 

Stasia wasn't allowed to do anything unless it was easy. The guys were basically breathing down her neck 24/7. She was sitting with Ami and the twins at the table, helping them with homework. Thankfully, it was English homework, so it was easy for her. She got up to make them a snack before dinner, and all she was doing was cutting fruit up when Hobi ran in, "Let me do that. Go sit down." 

She blew her bangs out of her face in a huff, "I'm not helpless, I can make my children a snack you know?"

He gave her a quick kiss, "Of course you can. But I'm here now, so let me help." 

"Fine, I'll go feed the babies. At least y'all can't take that from me." She kissed the kids before storming off to the nursery.

Stasia heard Ami talking to Hobi. "You guys are going to make Eomma really mad, you know that, right?" 

Trey piped up, "She's going to yell at y'all like she did when Jesse and I tried to cut Tannie's hair." 

"I don't know why she was so mad; even Appa Tae wasn't mad at us," Jesse grumbled.

Hobi laughed, "Well, that's because your Appas let you guys get away with everything. Someone has to be the adult, and that's your Eomma."

Stasia walked into the nursery, and Yoongi was there, showing Luna how to change Namis' diaper. "Great job. Now, go throw this in the trash. Agioo, look at Appa's big girl."

She walked in and picked Luna up, Yoongi stood up, and she gave him a kiss. "Hey, Babe, are you putting my baby to work already?" 

He chuckled, "Well, there are so many babies around here, and she's a big sister now." 

She handed her back to her Appa and went to get Nami so she could nurse her, "Babe can you grab JJ, I want to feed both of them at the same time. It's faster."

Stasia went to sit on the bed. He brought JJ in and helped get them both situated. Then he sat down with Luna in his lap. Luna leaned forward to give JJ a kiss. "Brother, Eomma brother?" she pointed at him. 

"That's right, pretty girl. This is your little brother," Stasia said as she smiled at her. 

She nodded her head and then kissed Nami, "Sister." 

Yoongi smiled so big, "That's a right, smart girl! Look how smart you are."

Stasia fell asleep after she finished nursing the babies. It was dark outside, so she assumed that she slept through dinner. Amis' light was on, so she went in there first. JK was in there singing Ami to sleep. 

He had Johnny in his arms, and he was singing Euphoria. Stasia started to tear up. It's the song that brought them all together. If he hadn't been performing it during the Earthquake, she would have died along with Noah. 

When he finished he went to turn her light off, both of the kids were asleep. He saw her standing there; she had tears in her eyes. "Nae Sesang, what is it?" He asked as he cupped her cheek.

"Nothing. I was just thinking how that song essentially brought us together. That's all," she said with a sad smile. "But I'm hungry. How about you make your pregnant girlfriend something to eat?" 

He nodded his head, "let me go put Johnny in bed, I'll meet you in the kitchen."

It didn't take him long to come to the kitchen; he started pulling things out of the fridge to cook. She was so tired, plus she had barely eaten at all that day. She just didn't feel like it. By the time he was done making fried rice for her, she had already fallen asleep at the counter. 

She woke up to Jin gently shaking her shoulder. "Stasia, if you won't eat, at least drink this." He handed her a smoothie; it was about the only thing she could keep down nowadays. But it didn't have a ton of calories. They kept trying to find ways to sneak calories in, but it didn't work. If they changed the recipe too much, she'd throw it all up. 

She drank the smoothie and told Jin she had to feed the babies before she went to bed. He helped her get to her room and helped her feed them. The babies were almost six months old now, so this would be their last feeding until the morning. She fed them and then put them back in their cribs, but she didn't make it back to her bed.
