"Hey Ayu, where should these boxes go?"
Kuina looked at me questioningly as I came through the front door. I smiled at her before placing the bag of breakfast rolls on a dresser that was already assembled in the hallway.
"Into the living room," I answered after reading the label stuck to the left side of the box, "Careful, you're carrying the expensive glasses!"
She just grinned at me before entering our new living space.
I watched her go before I sighted and looked at the chaos that lay before me. There was still so much to do...
It had been almost a week since Shuntaro, and I found out about our little miracle. We hadn't told anyone yet, not even Kuina and Hinata knew about it.
There was a special reason for this - we planned to announce it to them at our welcome party coming up in the next few days.
We moved into a new, larger apartment.
It was a beautiful area that Shu and I had chosen - the building had just been rebuilt since it had been affected by the disaster.
The move had already been decided before I became pregnant, which is why it now took on even more meaning.
The new apartment had several rooms - one of which would soon become the child's room - which of course my friends didn't know. They still assumed that the two empty rooms would become offices, one for me and one for Shu.
That's why I was even more looking forward to the moment when I could finally announce it to them.
"Hey Ayuna! The shelf in the bathroom is up!" Ann called from one of the rooms, I smiled slightly before moving in her direction.
It was still chaos, but it was slowly taking shape.
"That looks great!" I said to her when I reached the room in question, "Thank you very much!"
"Not for that," she answered, "What's next?" She looked around in an almost businesslike manner while I had to suppress a grin.
That's how I knew my friend - once she started something, she couldn't stop.
"The bed arrived yesterday afternoon," I said, "Maybe you could support Hinata, she's been struggling with it for almost an hour."
She gave a thumbs up before squeezing past me through the door and stalking off towards the bedroom.
I smiled after her before looking around the bathroom. The furniture was now in this room, so I could start unpacking the boxes.
There would be fewer boxes getting in the way - that prospect sounded tempting.
My phone vibrated and I pulled it out of my pocket. When I saw who the message came from, a smile crept onto my lips.
I can finish work early today - Saruka will take over a part of my shift.
Unfortunately, Shuntaro had to work - as was usual for a doctor. Still, he didn't like the idea of me having to do the move alone, but there was no other way.
He had duties to fulfill - and he knew it.
"Who put honey around your mouth?" a voice made me look at the doorstep. Niragi was standing in the hallway grinning and staring over at me.
I showed him the bird.
"Honey? That's the wrong saying, Suguru-kun," I replied, but the smile on my lips remained, "That's what they say when someone tries to ingratiate themselves with another person."
