I awoke to a sharp pain in my lower abdomen. My natural response was to attack. My reflexes quickly reacted but I was stopped.
"Zara!" Ellie yelled. She was holding both of my hands together but soon released me.
I realized Asuka and her brother Aki were on top of me. They were trying to wake me up. I noticed that Ellie had been given a dress to wear, the same ones all women in the village wore.
I ignored the pain and smiled as I cradled the both of them in my arms.
They cooed as I rocked them gently.
Ellie exclaimed,"You would make a great mother Zara."
I blushed at the thought of it.
My little Kai or my little Achilles. Maybe my own little set of twins.
Jasmine came inside the hut with a basket full of clothing. I was still in my armor, which needed to be cleaned and I needed to bathe.
"Here darlings," she greets us as she tossed us each a dress. "Thank you Jasmine," I say. I took the maroon dress with a black corset embedded into the center.
"Now, I have ran a hot bath for you in the bathroom Zara. I am boiling more hot water for your bath Asena. I will clean off and fix your armor while you're in there. Now get undressed!"
"Much obliged."
I head into the bathroom. A large wooden tub with steaming hot water with the fragrance of vanilla awaited me.
It took me about five minutes to remove all of my armor. After I finished, I placed the parts outside of the bathroom and let my hair out of it's up-do.
I lift up my right foot and dip my big toe inside to test the temperature.
I step in and lay back, letting the water swish back and forth. I grab the piece of cloth and wet it. I apply some soap and begin to lather up my body.
The essence of vanilla bean filled my nose, and soon my body smelt like it. I washed my hair and face, then rinse off.
Thirty minutes
I stepped out and onto the mat, then dried off with my towel. Since Jasmine was repairing and cleaning my armor, I had to wear the maroon dress she gave me.
The dress was a perfect fit. It accentuated my bust and bottom and clung to my waist. My dark brown wavy hair hung low, dripping from the ends.
I exit and flashed a smile at everyone. Asuka ran to me and I picked her up holding her on my hip.
The brunette was still asleep. I rolled my eyes and put Asuka on the floor. She began to fuss and put her arms up, indicating she wanted me to hold her once more.
"Hold on my love, I will be right back. I promise," I reassured her with a comforting smile. She calmed down as I walked over to Asena and violently shook her awake.
I bounced back and dodged her attack as she quickly jolts up. A slight pain in my stomach occurred again.
"Don't scare me like that! I could have taken off your head!" she shouted.
"As if," I scoffed. "Any who, it is your turn to bathe you filthy pig," I teased her.
I motioned to the bathroom.
She groaned and rubbed her eyes, slowly walking to the bathroom.
I walk over to the young child and take her into my arms. "Let's play outside!" she grinned and hugged onto me.
I exit the hut to see the shining rays of sunlight blaring. I put the baby down as she taps my leg and runs away from me.
"Zara's coming to get you," I tease as she giggles and continues to run away. I chase the little rosy cheeked girl around and around until I bump my face into something firm and wet.
