Star Wars: Cross Paths 2

Chapter 17 - Pretty Lady

Weeks had passed since the family was all together again.

At this moment Luke was in the Temple, watching the 15 years old Eqol and Qoli duel in the training room.

The students were getting better and better and he knew sooner or later they were ready to graduated and became Jedi Knights and with that he needed to find more students.

Right now he was walking around the room.

"Feel the force. Trust it and trust each other," Luke said, as the other students were also watching the duel.

Qoli was holding his green lightsaber, looking at his friend. The moment Eqol waved his blue saber, Qoli jumped over him. Turning around, Eqol blocked a strike from Qoli, making blue and green clash.

Clapping, Luke smiled at them.

"That was very nice. You two could see each one movements, that is why you anticipated each other attacks. It meant you were connected with the force but also that you trust each other too. I'm very proud" he told them, making the teenagers smiled as they breath heavily.

"Thank you Master Luke," the boys said at the same time.

"It everything for today. You can go on your weekend an hour earlier," he said laughing when his students jumping and said yes. No matter how old they were, they were always be typical students.

Heading inside the Temple, he entered inside the kitchen, where Aurea was preparing dinner for the students.

"Done already?" she said smiling at him.

"Yup," he said approaching her and Padmé. "Are you helping Aurea with dinner?" he asked running his right hand on his daughter blonde hair.

"Yes," she said nodding as she was sitting in the table, break some leaves for the soup.

"She is helping a lot." Aurea smiled and looking at Luke she asked. "How is Ines? Is she feeling better?"

"Today she is much better, but I thought it was for the best that she would stay at home. Ben and Alli decided to stay at home, they didn't want to leave their mother and the baby. Even R2 stayed there."

"They are protecting their mother and baby sibling. How far she is at the moment?"

"8 weeks and this time it is hitting her hard. From the past weeks she is being throwing up a lot and feeling very nauseous. We called her doctor and he said it is normal. She is 28 years old now, still young but her body changed from when she was 22, the age she had when we conceived Ben. But after the 12 weeks she will feel better. She needs to rest, drink a lot of water. And for the couple a days she is feeling better."

"Every pregnancy is different. And is this little one the last baby?" Aurea asked him.

"Yes for sure. The fabric is close after this one. We already talked to the doctor and after the baby is born, Ines will put an implant that will prevent any pregnancy from now on. 4 kids is enough," he smiled.

"I'm sure that kid will be so spoiled with his siblings," Aurea said smiling at Padmé who looked at her smiled.

"Yes," Luke smiled back. "Let's go sweetie. Let's see Mama and your siblings and R2?"

"Yes," she said while Luke took her off the table to the floor.

"Say goodbye to Aurea," he told.

"Bye Auwea," the little girl said hugging her,

"Bye sweetie and thank you for helping with dinner," she smiled as the little girl grabbed her father's right hand and wave back at her.
