SHANGUN AND RYAN WERE LIVING THEIR HAPPILY EVER AFTER, ENJOYING THEIR NEWFOUND MARRIAGE . ONE DAY, WHILE THEY WERE LOUNGING AT HOME, RYAN SUDDENLY CLUTCHED HIS STOMACH AND WINCED IN PAIN.
"WHAT'S WRONG, BABE?" SHANGUN ASKED, CONCERN ETCHED ON HIS FACE
RYAN EXPLAINED THAT HIS TOMMY (A TERM OF ENDEARMENT FOR HIS STOMACH) WAS CRAMPING BADLY.
SHANGUN QUICKLY SPRANG INTO ACTION, HELPING RYAN GET DRESSED AND RUSHED HIM TO THE HOSPITAL. THE DOCTORS RAN SOME TESTS AND ASKED RYAN A SERIES OF QUESTIONS. SHANGUN HELD HIS HAND, WORRIED SICK ABOUT WHAT MIGHT BE WRONG
THE DOCTOR THEN CAME WITH THE RESULTS, SMILING
SHANGUN "WHAT'S WRONG DOCTOR WHY ARE YOU SMILING, HE SAID THAT WITH AN ANGER OF SEEING HIS BABE IN PAIN"
"THERE'S NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, THIS KIND OF THINGS HAPPENS ALOT WHEN YOU'RE PREGNANT "
"WAIT, WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT? , RYAN ASKED
"YOU'RE PREGNANT SIR "
THE ROOM FELL SILENT. SHANGUN'S JAW DROPPED, AND RYAN'S EYES WIDENED IN DISBELIEF.
"BUT... HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?" RYAN STUTTERED.
THE DOCTOR EXPLAINED THAT IT WAS A RARE CASE OF MALE PREGNANCY, SOMETHING THAT HAD ONLY BEEN DOCUMENTED A HANDFUL OF TIMES IN MEDICAL HISTORY.
SHANGUN AND RYAN LOOKED AT EACH OTHER, SHOCKED BUT ALSO THRILLED AT THE UNEXPECTED TURN THEIR LIVES WERE TAKING.
AS THEY LEFT THE HOSPITAL, SHANGUN TURNED TO RYAN AND SAID, "WELL, I GUESS THIS MEANS OUR FAMILY IS GROWING FASTER THAN WE THOUGHT!"
RYAN CHUCKLED, STILL IN AWE, AND REPLIED ," BUT I'M STILL SHOCKED ON HOW THIS HAPPENED, YES I'M HAPPY BUT I LITTLE BIT SCARED , I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE PREGNANCY STUFFS"
"DON'T FORGET THAT YOU'RE NOT ALONE IN THIS RYAN , YOU HAVE ME , YOUR HUSBAND "
AS THE DAYS WENT BY, RYAN'S BELLY STARTED TO GROW AND SO DID THE EXCITEMENT IN THE HOUSE. THEY STARTED ATTENDING PARENTING CLASSES AND READING UP ON ALL THE LATEST PARENTING TRENDS.
FINALLY, THE DAY ARRIVED AND RYAN GAVE BIRTH TO A BEAUTIFUL BABY BOY NAMED LOUIS
AFTER RYAN GAVE BIRTH, THEY WENT HOME, EAGER TO START THEIR NEW LIFE AS A FAMILY. SHANGUN WAS OVERJOYED, PLAYING WITH HIS SON, LOUIS, AND WATCHING HIM GROW. BUT AS HE GAZED INTO LOUIS'S EYES, HE NOTICED SOMETHING PECULIAR.
"RYAN, COME QUICK!" SHANGUN EXCLAIMED. LOUIS 'S EYES... THEY'RE CHANGING!"
RYAN RUSHED OVER, AND THEY BOTH WATCHED IN AWE AS LOUIS'S EYES TRANSFORMED INTO PIERCING FANGS.
"OH MY...!" SHANGUN GASPED. "HE'S TAKING AFTER MY VAMPIRE GENES!"
RYAN 'S EYES WIDENED IN SURPRISE. "OUR LITTLE LOUIS IS A VAMPIRE!"
AS THEY MARVELED AT THEIR SON'S NEWFOUND FANGS, LOUIS LET OUT A TINY ROAR AND BIT DOWN ON SHANGUN'S NECK.
"OW!" SHANGUN LAUGHED. "I GUESS HE'S GOT THE HANG OF IT ALREADY!"
RYAN CHUCKLED, RELIEVED. "WELL, I GUESS THIS MEANS WE'LL HAVE TO TEACH HIM HOW TO CONTROL HIS THIRST... AND MAYBE GET SOME VAMPIRE-SIZED PACIFIERS!"
SHANGUN GRINNED, CRADLING SHANGUN HIS ARMS. "WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT TOGETHER, AS A FAMILY."
