Welcome to Gaia! ::

Vellamo on the other hand was not very concerned with her pregnancy. Well, at least not about who the father was. She made sure to do everything correctly so that her future puppies would survive. She ate well, perhaps a little too well, and she even put her business of selling visions on hold to ensure her pregnancy went well.

But she expressed no concern whatsoever over the fact that her children had been sired by a boy from another class. In her mind it was easy. Euanthe had bore Kaveh and herself to a mortal rogue, Vellamo baring children with a monster from a separate class was nothing! She honestly didn't understand what was making her family so upset. Gosh, they could be so overdramatic.

That was why she didn't tell them about her pregnancy in the first place. Mom couldn't handle her "little babies" growing up and carrying on the family line. Kevah, well, what could she say he was a lost cause. Still she could understand them being a little ticked off that she hadn't shared the secret. And that it was another monster who had informed them of her being preggers in the first place.

So, now they all walked along the beach to discus the topic at hand. If you could call it that. It was more like a subtly hidden argument if you read between the lines. "Tch. It ain't that big of a deal. People get knocked up all the time ma."

Vel knew her mother was concerned, and even felt a little sympathetic towards her. But she was a grownup. She didn't need to be watched anymore. She was no longer fascinated by finding what was inside sea shells. She was mature and responsible in her own way.

"Ma." She tried to stop Eua from ranting. She even flicked a ear towards Kaveh as he chipped in his consent for this having happened.

"He ain't gonna help ma, I don't even know his name." She informed her mother quickly. " 'an I guess that ta are gonna be a grandma now too..." She paused to breathe in, and turned to halt and stare at her family with confident eyes. This was hard to admit since Vellamo thrived off the idea of surviving without challenge. Plus with her mother lecturing her Vellamo was uneasy in how she would react...

"Ma, Kaveh." Her eyes shifted between the two. "I'm ready. Ta be a parent n' stuff... I'mma gonna raise 'em right. So that they lives and all that... But. I... Ta might be needing help 'n all since..." It was obvious, the father was a mystery. Without knowing anything about him Vellamo didn't even know what class he belonged to. If her children, her no doubt beautiful children wanted to they could go and change class like Kaveh had.

But Vellamo didn't know how she'd feel if they did. Would she be glad? Would she beg them to stay? Eua had gone through the situation with Vel's brother already, and the idiot even came and visited them occasionally when he wanted to. Such as now, when he wanted to support her with the oncoming birth.

"What... What should I do ma?"

Vellamo nodded in response to her mother. Kaveh had remained quiet which was a little bit of a mystery to her as he usually spoke up about... Anything.

She felt the dire need to change the topic in the conversation. They might have marched out here to talk about her but Vellamo wasn't enjoying the lime light at all. So, she changed it to her mother. "I didn't love 'em ya know." She referred to the father of her children. "It just sort a happened, right? Like dat guy from the graveyard... Nuru Moyo." She snarled out his name in hatred.

She honestly didn't get what her mom saw in that idiot. He was practically another Kaveh! And a butt-ugly one at that! He wasn't smart and he wasn't attractive he was just some mooch that her mother had the bees knees about. Vellamo had been more than glad when her mother came home with her and Kaveh after a night of debating about it. Oh, her brother knew, she practically cried in relief.

Then she had ran into that Cothoza mortal, ugh. She didn't want to think about him.

"Dis guy wasn't like that Nuru though. He was smart and good looking. I'm gonna be havin' some good looking babes thanks to him."

Vellamo wasn't mad with her mother, she wasn't angry. No, Vellamo, was furious. Did Eua not realize all Vel had done for her? All that her and Kaveh had done for her sake?! They were grownups! They shouldn't have had to spend their valuable time babysitting their mother as she wandered off to go and observe a mortal pride!

She raced in front of her Eua, halting with a snarl to stop her from walking. Unintentionally she had also caused Kaveh to halt, as he was walking alongside her.

"Take it back." Vellamo blurted. She couldn't hold her tongue about this one, it was Nuru they were talking about! That idiot didn't deserve her mothers affections. Heck, he probably didn't even know what love was!

"Ya can't love him!" She growled to the air. Hanma help her, her mother was going insane.

The pups that roamed in her belly stirred and pressed against her lungs. Vellamo seethed in another gasp of air and allowed her mother a moment of retaliation, and a moment to cool of and regain the composer she had been so quick to lose. "If ya loves him dat much, why don't cha just go 'en live with 'em in dat graveyard of his."

"Yeah, let's just go back home." Vellamo agreed with a bitter tone.

She decided to blame her outburst on the fact that the lumps of puppies in her belly were pressing up against her sides constantly. It's as if they were ready to come out in exactly that moment but had decided to wait until a little bit later to do so.

Frustrating little miscreants. She prayed they weren't as much trouble as they were worth, she was already so horribly grumpy and they weren't even born yet.

Taking the lead Vellamo began marching back. She didn't want to look at her mother exactly at this moment for she'd probably become livid and feel the need to bad talk Nuru further. So instead she looked ahead, kept her eyes on the horizon and tried to think of what would be best for her pups. For their future had suddenly become hers.
