"What? Really?" asked my father.

"No… I don\'t think so. I have not felt anything yet… Sylphy, where did you get that idea?" asked my mother.

"When we were taking a nap, I heard the beating of your heart and then… another one, a small one near your belly…" I told them.

"Ah… but it\'s so little I couldn\'t really hear anything myself…" said my mother.

"But I did! I already told you two that thanks to my Divine Protection, I have very keen senses now, right? It\'s not only my sight, but my hearing is also got pretty good…" I told them.

My parents looked at one another and then back at me.

"S-Sylphy, are you sure?" asked my mother.

"Yeah! I\'m dead serious! I even used Heavenly Sight and was able to detect a tiny fetus," I told them, assuring them.

"Ah…"

After that, my mother went slackjawed. My parents trusted me enough to know that I was saying the truth. There was no point in playing them a prank like this just for the laughs, after all.

"T-Then…"

My father quickly rushed towards my mother\'s side, kneeling on the ground and gently putting his ears over her belly. My mother suddenly grew more and more restless as she let my father have his way.

My father closed his eyes as he seemed to use magic to enhance his earing senses. Suddenly, two fox-like ears made of flames emerged where his ears were. They were not burning anything though, and were part of his Fire Spirit that I had not seen in a while, the giant nine-tailed fox.

His eyes suddenly opened wide as he probably heard the tiny heartbeat.

He stood up as he hugged my mom tightly. Tears began to pour out of his eyes as my mother still couldn\'t believe it herself.

"I-It\'s true!" he exclaimed.

"Oh… by the gods…" muttered my mother.

I was only watching the scene in silence as I saw both of my parents suddenly break into tears as if they were little children. Then again, I can understand it. It must be a very happy thing to have a second child. I\'m glad they accepted it happily and didn\'t complain or something.

There were certainly some people that might not really be as happy if they were to have a second child since they were already raising one. But my parents were very strong, so I can trust that they\'ll raise my little sibling well.

Actually, I can\'t wait for it to be born. Just thinking about having a little sibling excites me… I want to love it a lot, and slowly see it grow into a boy or a girl…

"Aahhh… sniff… I can\'t believe it… but how? I have such low fertility… how come I got pregnant just five years after?!" cried my mother.

Well, maybe it\'s because you two do it like rabbits every night?

On second thought, I better not say that out loud.

"Hahaha…! I\'m going to be father a second time! I can\'t believe it… we better raise it as well as our little girl, okay? We\'ll… we\'ll do our best!" said my father.

"Dear… I\'m so happy… a second child at my old age… I can\'t believe it… it\'s as if it were a second miracle by itself…" mother could only utter those words.

"I know… I know! You\'re such a good woman… I knew that we could make a family… see? All those times you said it was impossible for you to get pregnant at your age… see? It\'s still possible…" father said with a beaming smile.

"Sniff… oohh… I am so happy…" Tears started to pour out of mother\'s eyes at this point.

It seems like my mother had some complications before… perhaps old elves like her had very low chances of giving birth, so this might have affected her and even when my father tried to ask her to make a family with him, she was refusing because she thought it would be impossible…

Or that\'s what I\'m getting from their cries. But they\'re a bit unintelligible, so I can\'t tell much…

However, I could clearly tell that happiness was overflowing from them right now.

I decided to quickly rush towards them to not miss this opportunity, and both of my parents embraced me in their tight hugs while crying loudly.

"You\'re going to have a little sibling, Sylphy!" cried my father as he hugged me and kissed my forehead.

"How do you feel about it? Are you happy, dear? Sob…" cried my mother in between her tears.

"I\'m happy… Yeah! I can\'t wait to see it…" I replied.

"Me too! I want it right now…" cried my father.

"Sniff… I wonder if it\'s going to be a boy this time… or a girl again?" wondered my mother.

"I-I don\'t really care! I just want it!" said my father.

He seemed to really want the baby. I would never expect a manly and powerful man to be so obsessed with babies, but he was indeed someone that wanted to see his child be born. Plus, he seemed happy to have a second, so he would probably be happy to have a third, a fourth, a fifth, and so on…

"What will you name it?" I wondered.

"I-I don\'t know…" replied my father.

"We\'ll find a good name after some time, dear… but we could probably make something up. We should cover up both genders, like we once did for Sylph," mother said.

"Oh yeah! If you were to be born a boy, we would have called you Freyr, did you know that?" father said soon after.

"Freyr? I see… I guess it\'s a pretty name, we could call the baby that if it\'s a boy!" I said.

"Yeah… maybe!" said my father.

"And if it\'s a girl… how about Freyja?" mother suggested soon after.

"Oh, that sounds sweet as well." Father seemed to like the name.

In any case, it seems that things were already decided.
