Hajime walked up and down from worry in the hallways of the hospital. With him were his son and daughter, Kana and Ryu. The door opened, and one of Hajime's closest friends came out. "Mikan? Is she..." He saw some doctors walking out of the room with one of them holding a small bundle. "They're just going to go clean the baby up. Other than that, he's fine." Hajime walked into the hospital room to see his wife resting in the bed, her hair damp from sweat and sticking to her forehead.
"Hajime?" "Hey, Chiaki. You okay?" The young woman chuckled. "I've done this twice already. It's nothing I can't handle." Hajime laughed with her. "I hear it's a boy. Sounds like Kana is gonna have some trouble."
The two children walked in. "Hey you two. Did you come here with your dad?" "Where's the baby?", asked Ryu.
"Right here."

Mikan walked back into the room, holding a baby boy wrapped up in blankets. She handed him to Chiaki, who looked at his sleeping face.
His eyes slowly opened, and looked at his new family. "Hey there, little guy", said Hajime. "I'm your dad. And this brave, strong woman here is your mom." Chiaki looked at Ryu and Kana. "Come say hi to your new baby brother." The two children moved closer to the bed and looked at their new sibling. "Have you decided on a name?", asked Mikan.
"Yes. Yama. Yama Hinata."

. . .

Hajime opened the front door, letting Chiaki in first as she was carrying Yama.
"Hajime? Why is it so dark in here?" The lights switched on, and Chiaki was greeted with cheers from all her friends. The room was decorated with balloons and a banner saying "Welcome Yama".
"Let me see him!", squealed Sonia, who dashed over to Chiaki. "Oh my goodness! He is just adorable!"
"Ah yes, yet another heir to your throne", commented Gundam. "You were right, dear. He is indeed adorable", Nagito said to Mikan.
"Hey there little champ! Welcome to the world!", exclaimed Nekomaru. Yama let out a little gurgle.
"Just you wait little guy. When you're older, Aunt Akane is gonna show ya all the food there is!", exclaimed Akane.

The rest of the party was celebrated with Hajime and Chiaki's friends greeting the baby. Kana and Ryu took their baby brother to a separate room away from the adults.
"Hi, little brother", said Kana. She tickled Yama's cheek. "I'm your big sister, Kana. And that's Ryu, your big brother." Ryu looked at Yama. "You don't have to worry about a thing! Me and Kana will take great care of you! Just like Mom and Dad do."
The young infant let out a gurgle, and had a smile with it. From outside the room, Chiaki listened. She was so proud of her children, and very grateful to be blessed with the family she had. She wouldn't trade it for the world.
