About 5 More Weeks To Go

Chapter 79

Maui's POV

Time Skip....

5 weeks later...

   Moana's now 35 weeks along, meaning that she's only about 5 weeks away from giving birth to our baby girl. Given that, Moana's mood swings have increased along with her morning sickness and the amount of medication she consumes each day. Moana has another appointment in a couple of days, which will give us a picture as to the exact due date of our daughter. Today though, Moana and I are having a lazy day. Tala's going to come by for supper later, but neither Moana and I are going to leave the house. Unless there's something she craves or needs, in which I'll run out to get it. 

   It's one in the afternoon and Moana's still sleeping. I don't plan on waking her up because I know it's crucial for her to get as much rest as possible because once the baby comes, we won't be sleeping much anymore. I made tacos for Moana and I for lunch. I'm eating mine now because I'm starved. I wrapped Moana's and put them in the fridge a few minutes ago. She can have them when she wakes up.

3 hours later...

   A sleepy Moana comes wandering into the kitchen and sits down next to me at the table. I kiss her forehead. "Good afternoon love. How'd you sleep?" She gives me a tired smile. "I slept okay. I mean I tossed and turned for awhile, but once I actually fell asleep, I was able to sleep consistently. What time is it?" I smirk at her. "It's four in the afternoon." Her eyes bug out of her head in the most adorable way. "Oh my gosh Maui, I slept through most of the day! Why didn't you wake me up?" "You need every bit of rest you can get at this point Moana. Plus, I wasn't planning on doing anything today." "Are you sure I didn't tamper with any plans of yours?" "Absolutely. Now eat up. I made some pretty mean tacos earlier." I hand her the tacos I made earlier. I made eight of them. Four for me and four for her. I devoured mine within ten minutes earlier this afternoon. 

   Moana eats all of them up with a smile. I'm glad she's enjoying them. I also glad that she likes anything I make. I go out of my way to impress her, especially in the kitchen and in bed. I wasn't trying to be gross with that second part, just stating the facts.

 3 hours later...

  Tala brings over some chicken and waffle fries for dinner. Moana and I light up at the sight of them and dig in right away. "Thank you so much Tala. How was your day?" She smiles. "You're welcome Maui. My day was fine. I gardened a bit, did some grocery shopping in the village, and picked up supper. How was your day?" I smile back. "My day was good. I had a lazy day along with Moana. She's slept through most of the day. She's only been up for three hours. So it's safe to say she'll be up late tonight." She laughs. "I was like that myself when I was pregnant once upon a time ago." "I bet. Did you have the mood swings and crazy hormones too?" "I sure did. It's normal though I promise. Just think, you only have about five more weeks of it too, then they will begin to decrease." "Well that's a relief. It'll be nice to not see Moana in such pain. She has such horrible cramps and morning sickness. I pull her back from her face as she throws up in the toilet nearly everyday." 

    Tala puts a hand on my shoulder. "You're a trooper Maui and so is Moana. You two are ready to take parenthood." I put a hand on her shoulder as well. "I believe so too. We're going to be damn good parents. I'll make sure our daughter doesn't become like Tui, no offense." "None taken Maui. I'm ashamed of the person he became everyday. I know your daughter won't be like that because you and Moana would never let her become that way." I nod in agreement. We sit in silence watching Moana eat with gentle smiles on our faces, both of us so proud of how far Moana's come.
