Chapter 66 - Bird Lovers (4) (1/2)
Nana was in a bad mood.
Our goal, ChunChu Lake was right there, but we stopped and walked into the shade of the tree.
“What’s wrong? Can you not fall asleep?”
Nana wouldn’t stop crying even though she was held by her favorite mama.
“Fuehhh”
Nana frowned and shook her head.
I had no idea why.
Aoi, who sat down against the base of the tree, was working hard to cheer Nana up.
Jaja was sleeping without worry, and her diaper was just changed.
She refused breast milk, and even hugging her had no effect.
Well, we’re stuck.
What should we do…
“Maybe she’s still cold?”
Mikuma put her hand on Nana’s neck and covered it with an infant jumpsuit hood.
It was a hood with bear ears that was a different color from Jaja’s.
Jaja’s is brown and Nana’s is white.
We chose the thickest of the animal ear series for outdoor use.
We’re entering May and it’s getting warmer, but sometimes it could be cold with wind chill.
What has been obvious recently is that adults and babies feel things completely differently.
Something that isn’t cold at all, can feel like the extreme cold to babies.
Conversely, a mild climate can feel hot to the point where the babies won’t stop sweating.
Therefore, we have a lot of clothes for changing the twins in our luggage.
We have to pay close attention to temperature regulation.
“It’s okay because I’m sweating a little. What’s wrong, crybaby Nana-chan?”
Aoi placed her forehead against Nana’s and peered into her eyes.
“Uuu”
Nana finally stopped crying, and was breathing lightly with her nose.
“Is she scared?”
Somehow, I had a feeling.
“Eh? Of what?”
No, I’m not really sure.
The twins who couldn’t speak had no way of conveying their thoughts.
So it was really just a feeling and I had no way of knowing.
Recently, I have a bad habit of saying everything I’m thinking.
“Is she scared since it’s her first time here?”
Saeki, who was holding Aoi’s bags opened her mouth.
“That might be it. It’s completely different from our neighborhood.”
“Ni! Nii!”
Shouhei moved forward while grabbing Koji’s collar, and stroked Nana’s forehead.
“Ah”
“Nana?”
Nana peeked out at me past Aoi and reached her hands out.
“Hm, me?”
How rare.
If it was a place where both Aoi and I were present, Nana will without exception act like a spoiled child towards Aoi.
I can only hold Nana when Aoi is absent or when Aoi lets her go.
“Is papa okay?”
“Aa, dah.”
Nana wriggled her short hands and feet and wings around as she tried to come near me.
“Alright, come.”
At any rate, it’s so rare that Nana would act like this towards me.
