A Few Hours Later
Ash
How exactly is someone supposed to react to life-changing news?
Ash had her fair share of moments like these in the past few months, between being chosen to be a Savior, to meeting a literal goddess for the first time, among others, one might think that Ash would be used to such instances by now.
She wasn't.
This particular moment was indicative of that. After the conversation with Ayami ended abruptly with Keiko vomiting some violet liquid, Ash's mother had made that reality-shaking declaration in front of the entire group and a few customers who would go back home with a crazy story to tell their loved ones.
Keiko was pregnant. The Zayama who had trained Ash and Kaori, become their lover, their girlfriend, had helped them take down many demons and who had become a vital piece of Ash's heart, was pregnant.
