Reincarnated Without a Body

chapter 2: first meal

Finally, mother's crying has subsided. Now her eyes are redder than before. It even got swollen up. Poor Halena.

From her look, and the lack of any children coming to see us, I think we're her first childs. That, or the other kids were grossed out by our appearance.

After wiping away her tears, and her snots, she stared at us for a while, then continue blabbering more. I tried to listen and memorize what she said when I heard a word that I recognize: 'eat'.

Oh boy...  This is awkward.

You knows what comes next.
Her cloth has buttons at the front.
She unbuttoned it, revealing her breast and stretched stomach.
It feels quite unbelievable that we were dwelling inside her small stomach just till a few hours ago.

Over with the distraction, mother remove her bra and hold us closer to her chest.
Oh my. Look at that.
She has full breast, probably due to all the milk stored.

I heard a woman's chest grow bigger when they get pregnant.
Then I guess mother's was a little bit to the small side before this. 
I guess.

The 'issue' pressed on. Now her nipple are directly in front of our lips.
Just like the rest of her skin. Her aureoles are pale pink. Is she sick?
She barely have any color on her.

Then, suddenly my hands moved and hold onto her breasts.
I swear,  it's my other head who's moving the hands. Not me.

But while the other head is in control,  I still am able to feel the stimulus from the touch.
So, how does her breasts feels?

From the little experiences that I have from my short past life I know that woman's chest are incredibly soft and squishy.
But not this time. Her breast feels... Stoic, and.. tight. This surprise me so much that I didn't realize when did my other head starts feeding.

It's a weird feeling. Just now my stomach felt so empty.
But right now milk are flowing into my stomach without me tasting or swallowing any of it. Only now I realize our body was hungry.

I gave mother's nipple one last look before deciding I might as well. No harm done. I start sucking on her breast.

While feeding, our hands are still on her breast. I thought of what might be the reason mother's breast doesn't feel soft.

Then it hits me.

It's probably because we're babies!
We still doesn't have strength in our limbs. Even tilting my head is a hard work. And our skin are very soft too.
I doubt I can squash a jelly or a balloon with my strength right now.
So it's actually not that her breasts is hard, it is our hand that's soft and weak.

Deep in thought, I didn't realize how our breathing was getting faster and faster.

When you've got two mouth, filling your belly went a lot faster.

But when we were finished sucking,  my head feels funny. I feels dizzy. The kinda feeling you get when you went on hiking, and got a little bit too excited.

Anyway, my head is spinning. I'm not feeling well. I guess the other head is feeling the same. So we went to sleep straight away.

. . . . .

Later that night, I was woken up from my sleep by a sharp pain in my chest.
My chest is hurting like crazy.
we are also breathing heavily. Huffing and puffing. But I still feels dizzy.
I guess it's too much for our small heart to supply blood to two heads.

I look at my twin. He's awake. He looks like he's crying his lungs out.
But then I realize I can't hear his cry.
This spooks me out. There's no sound of anything. Not even a cricket.

This reminds me again of the time of nothingness. The time between my death and my reborn. Where I can't even hear  my own voice. I started to panic. I tried to cry, to get mother's attention, but no voice come out.

Struggling around, moving my body and limbs in hope of making any noise to get mother to come, I noticed that my body's not touching anything!

Shit, am I dead again already? This is not funny at all. My eyes wide with fear. Then I realized that there's a roof over our heads.
We're still in the house. But why I can't touch anything?

Ignoring the pain in our chest, I look around. When I look down, I saw our bed. It's way down there. No wonder I can't touch anything. We're floating around two feet over the bed.

That might doesn't sounds very high but hell no.
That's more than twice our body height!
And I realized one more thing.

Something big!

I don't know how I didn't see him until now but there a person in front of me. A very tall person. Taller than dad.

He must be at least 6 feets tall. He wore a very beautiful dark robe over his body. The robe seems like it is glowing softly like stars in the night sky. When I look at his face, I saw the most beautiful face I've ever seen.

I guess this person was a man from his body shape. He has a wide shoulders. But now I'm in doubt. If he's a man, he has a face that will make every woman jealous and every man gay for him.

He look at us with his big dark eyes. Suddenly his eyes changed color and glowing soft green. Moments later our body are glowing with soft green blue light. And the pain in our chest instantly disappeared.

What the hell is happening? My fear disappear as fast as the pain. Replaced by awe.

He then stepped closer. No, stepped was not the right word. He floated closer to us. Then he reached for us with his hands. Touching our cheeks.

I can't exactly describe what expression was on his face. He's smiling softly, but his whole face show something in between curiousity and pity.

"who are you" I tried to speak. Not that I know how to speak yet. And just like a while ago, no sound was produced.

But I noticed he was startled. As if he heard me. He is now staring directly into my eyes. And then I heard it.
A question.

"How did this babies have developed minds already?"
