As My Heart Dies-Chp109

[the dining table was all set n Demurra n her family were all just getting seated]

Demurra: Just in time. We're abt to start

Brad: :) Great. (helped Peepers in his seat and took his own)

Peepers: [eyed at all the food, not sure where to start, tho his stomach betrayed him] (doh)

Demurra: Don't be shy, help urself. There's plenty more where tht came frm (giggle)

Brad: (nod) Mhm.

Peepers: Well, if u say so [starts eating slowly at first then picked up the pace]

Children: :O :O :O

Brad: ^^;;

Draykor: o_o;;

Demurra: My, my, wat a healthy appetite u hv. Reminds me of wen I was pregnant with the kids (giggle) [chuckled in understanding]

Peepers: Om nom nom... [ignored the stares like he was used to]

Brad: You should've seen him at those other food places we've went to.

Demurra: Reli? Ate them out of business, didn't he? (smirk)

Peepers: ^^;; [continued eating]

Brad: Well, almost but one place we actually helped get back into business when they were on the brink of closing down. :)

Peepers: Yeah, well, we can't take all the credit. One of their regulars helped the most. I just went there to eat. He did the rest

Demurra: Reli? How did he do that?

Brad: He had a vlog of some sort, recorded us and all that.

Children: Ooh ooh, is it Blerb from Yum Yum Vlog?

Peepers: I think that's the name

Brad: (nod) Yeah that's him.

Draykor: ^^;; I've much catching up to do with all of this new tech and talk nowadays.

Demurra: [rolled her eyes humorously] We got them a tablet for their birthday, n they love to watch vlogs

Children: No wonder u look familiar [took out their tablet from under the table n found the vid] See, Mommy, Daddy?

Demurra: :| Kids, wat did I say abt bringing ur tablet to the table?

Brad: (giggle) Hehe. Cute family, Demurra.

Demurra: Yeah, they drive me up the wall sometimes, bt they're our precious little hoard

Peepers: [watched as the kids showed their father the video, wondering if that would be their child n Brad in the future] :)

Draykor: Indeed. (nod)

Peepers: [quietly caressed his baby bump under the table as he ate]

Brad: (noticed) How you holding up?

Peepers: I'm OK reli, baby's starting to be a bit more active n heavier now. At this point I might end up needing a wheelchair to move ard before I give birth |-(

Brad: Heh, maybe I can't carry you around forever. (giggle)

Demurra: Oh don't be silly, I'm sure u can. I hate to admit it, bt Brad is actually pretty strong by his own right. He can carry a few things heavier than his own weight. I'm sure he can carry u ard for a while longer

Peepers: I see :$

Brad: Well, yeah. :$

Children: Can we feel ur baby, pretty pls~? :) :) :)

Demurra: No, kids, that's not appropriate

Brad: (chuckle)

Draykor: You've heard what your mother says.

Peepers: It's alright. They can do it for a little while

Children: :D :D :D Weee~~~ [made their way to Peepers n put their ears onto his baby bump in fascination] Oooh...

Brad: :)

Peepers: (giggle)

Children: Ooh~ We can feel it move :D :D :D

Brad: (started thinking of how their child would be like)

Demurra: Alright, that's quite enough. Finish ur dinner before it gets cold

Children 'Kay~~ [returned to their seats]

Peepers: [chuckled n continued his meal]

Brad: :) (continued his meal, too)
