“Phi!” On Monday morning, the day after the big reveal, Porchay barged into the living room with his hands full of bags, as Porsche was lying on the couch like the potato he had become.

“What’s all this?”

“P’Khun helped me buy everything you needed for the pregnancy”

“There’s only a few days left”

“Better now than never…” He managed to answer as he was putting the heavy bags on the table. Thankfully, it mostly looked like groceries. Porsche tried to stand up to help but Chay stopped him midway. 

“No! It’s okay, I can handle this!” Porsche despised feeling so helpless but as every movement he made felt like he was carrying thrice his weight, he didn’t protest.

His brother then quickly left and came back a few minutes later with a huge, long, pillow that he carried up to the couch.

“What’s this?”

“A pregnancy pillow! It will help you sleep!”

“…How?”

“Here. Wrap around it. It’s supposed to help you carry the weight. You don’t have a belly but I’m sure it will make you feel better”.

Porsche doubted anything – except maybe a certain person but that was not the point- could help him sleep but he still lied back on it.

“Thank you, Chay, it’s perfect”

“Of course! By the way, I totally forgot to ask you about the sexes of the babies!  P’Tankhun and I would LOVE to decorate the babies room! I assume they’ll have to stay at the hospital for the first months but if we were to paint the walls, we should start now”

Porsche’s mind blanked at the word “babies”. Since the day before, Porchay had urged him to tell him everything. And he had. He told him about Kinn, the breakup, the pregnancy, the discovery of the true mate bond… except, he couldn't tell him how he felt about “them”. Or the lack of feelings.

Maybe it was the look on his face, but Porchay frowned, with a worried expression as he sat down next to him “Is it too overstepping?”

“Huh?” Porsche was still thinking of a way to announce he didn’t intend to raise them. Especially now that he knew for sure the Theerapanyakun's would take care of everything. Since Sunday night, he’d been receiving dozens of text messages (and even two phone calls) from strangers congratulating and welcoming him to the family. How they got his phone number, he had no freaking idea. He even received flowers this morning from Vegas and Macau’s father, a conceited man who had ignored him every single time they met until now.

“I know it’s complicated between P’Kinn and you… I thought maybe we could make two rooms? One at the pack house and one here?”

“Oh.”

“I mean, you’d decide of everything, of course! We would just help you!”

“No, you guys can take care of the decoration”

“Really?”

“Yes. At the pack house.”

“Not here?”

“I don’t think it’ll be necessary”

“Okay! That’s some great news! I’m sure things will work out between you two soon enough”

“Yeah…”

“So, boys or girls?”

“Both”

Porchay squealed, jumped into his arms. “I’m so happy, phi! I can’t believe I’m about to be an uncle!”

Porsche didn't want to spoil his happiness.

He’d tell him, later.
