Offering You Can't Miss [Countryhumans Story]

22. Old Friends

{Czechoslovakia's POV}

I already forgot how hard it is to take care of baby. I'm tired, didn't sleep for days and I'm worried. Nicolas is growing faster then normal countries, how I said we grow up like one human week in one day, but Nicolas had like two weeks in one day. After 2 week he looked like 6 months baby. We were prepared for fast growing baby, but not this. We already knew Nicolas can't see on his left and two times he cried, because he couldn't see me, while hearing my voice.
Now he's like one year old boy and started speaking. I was talking to him in Czech, but someone was speaking to him in Russian, I wonder who it was...
I was making him and others food, when I heard Nicolas. "Mama! Mama!" He said happily. It was first time he said some words that make sance and everyone heard that. He was in living room, where Russia and Ukraine were playing video games and Belarus and Kazakhstan were taking together. Soviet was reading book in armchair. When he said it everyone was shocked and whole room was quite. "Ha! You own me 20$!" Russia suddenly shouted and pionted at Ukraine. Soviet looked pissed and gave Russia 20$ as Ukraine did. "I was sure he'll say papa. Goddammit." Soviet said while giving the money to Russia. I laughed to myself that he really bet with Russia, because Russia was saying to little Nicolas whole days mama.
I finished dinner for everyone and got to Nicki to feed him. "Okay, Nicki. Here's your dinner." I started feeding him, while everyone was eating. He was a good boy and ate it all. "Mama! Mama!" He said happily, when I picked him up. "Ano, já jsem tvá máma!" [Yes, I'm your mama!] I said happily. He laughed, but immediately yawned. "Někdo tady je ospinkaný." [Someone here is sleepy.] I said happily taking him to his bed. I laid him in his bed and sat in armchair next to him. I was so tired that I fell asleep immediately. It was the first time I didn't have a nightmare or any dream, just blank sleep.
I woke up and saw Nicki wasn't there. I started panicking and got to living room. "Where's Nicki?!" I said freaking out. "Here, calm down. You were sleeping, so I took care of him." Russia said totally calm. I had moment of relief, when I heard Nicki's mama. "You were sleeping for 2 days, Soviet and I took care of him. You were really tired." He said smiling. I sat on couch next to Nicki, who was playing with blocks. "Thank you, I didn't sleep well and this was actually first time I slept longer then 20 minutes." I said still tired. I was playing with Nicki, when someone knocked on front doors. I looked at Russia, who looked confused. Soviet and other kids were on trip we planned, they will be out whole weekend. Russia wasn't expecting anyone, neither I. "You should go to Nicolas's room with him." He said going to doors. I took Nicki with his favorite toy and got in his room, it's the most secured room in the house, Soviet was paranoid about what may happen to him. I was teaching him few easy words in Czech like animals or colors. When Russia got to me. "It's someone for you. I'll play with him." He said and sat to Nicki. I was little nervous, who it could be. I walked in living room, where was sitting Britain sipping tea and next to him was France, looking tired. "Long time no see. I'm happy to see you again." I said to France, sitting on armchair in front of them. Britain didn't pay attention and tried to ignore me, like he always do. France smiled at me tiredly. "Yeah, me too. How's life?" She said smiling. I didn't really want to talk about it. "It's... Fine, I guess. After Nicolas was born everything is much better." I said smiling, I was truly happy. "Nicolas? That's wonderful name. Who gave it to him?" She asked nicely. Britain was interested in it too. "Cze-... It doesn't matter. Do you want to see him?" I said smiling, I shouldn't talk to France about my son, I don't want to break her again. She knew what name I wanted to say and was little stunned. "Yes, we would love to." Britain said and put his hand on France's shoulder. I got up and went slowly to Nicki's room. There Russia was playing peekaboo with him. It seems like Russia was more into it then Nicki was. When I got in, Nicki immediately crawl to me. "Hey there, my little boy, did you had fun with your big brother?" I said picking him up, while he was giggling and touching my face. "Yeah, did they leave?" Russia asked hoping I'll say yes. Most of Soviet's family don't like Britain much, they're okay with France, but Britain is something different. Only one, who don't actually hate Britain is Ukraine and only because he really love Canada.
"No, they want to see Nicki." I said and got out, Russia right after me. We got together in the living room. I saw France being happy, while Britain was worried. France got up and walked to me. "Oh, he's such a cute boy. How are you, little Nicki?" She said and took him in her arms. She was careful, but Nicki didn't like it. "Mama!" He said almost crying. France gave him back to me and he stopped crying. "I'm sorry, France. He's-" "It's okay. He don't know me." I tried to apologise to her, but she cut me off. "I think we should go. It was nice to see you again. We should repeat it." France said and Britain stayed quite, they both left. I didn't feel like they said everything they wanted, but now I can't do anything.
Another knock on the doors, this time almost banging. I opened them, because Russia was making lunch for us. I was shocked when I saw Czechia, heavily injured and next to him a lion. "Pomoz... Mi..." [Help... Me...] He said before falling down, unconscious.
What the heck happened?!
I immediately call Russia to help me with him. The lion wasn't happy we were touching him, so I had to calm him down. He probably noticed how we are so similar, so it was easier. Russia took him in and call ambulance.
