"Ahem! But there's more," my mother announced, capturing our attention once again. This time, I wasn't the only one turning to look at her. Gina and Reena, along with the five women seated beside us, also fixed their gaze upon her. Two of them had a peculiar intensity in their eyes, and all of us were left wondering what she was about to disclose.
"And lastly," she said with a peculiar smile, her words hanging in the air, "I believe that I might also be pregnant." Her gaze shifted towards the five older women seated before us. "And yes, the father of my child is also Orion. So, I want each one of you to answer honestly if you have had kushi with my son." My mother scrutinized each of the five women, narrowing her eyes at them. At this point, I was at a loss for words, unsure of how to react or what the next steps should be, as the conversation took an unexpected turn.
"Well, I haven't kushi with him yet, so I don't think I'm pregnant... yet," Grandma Derry declared, winking at me with a mischievous smile. In every group, there was always that one eccentric individual who stood out, so I didn't pay her much mind and shifted my attention to the next raised hand.
Grandma Vivian lowered her hand and spoke up, "Orion released his semen within my vagina before. So, although I'm not certain if I'm pregnant yet, given the ongoing circumstances, it would be wise to consult a trusted healer to confirm who among us is truly expecting." I nodded in agreement, finding the suggestion reasonable. My mother, too, nodded and promptly responded, "Very well, we'll make arrangements for that as soon as we're finished here." Her gaze then shifted to the remaining two women in the room.
The only woman whose name I hadn't learned yet shook her head with a thin smile on her lips. "Unfortunately, I haven't been fortunate enough to have kushi with Orion," she confessed. My mother nodded and then focused her attention on Grandma Ingrid. Despite the urge to voice my thoughts about our encounter yesterday, I couldn't help but be curious about what she had to say.
"No, I don't believe I've had the fortune of having kushi with Orion," Grandma Ingrid replied, causing me to briefly nod in acknowledgement. However, deep down, I knew she was lying. Considering her desperate behaviour yesterday, urging me to fuck her pussy out until it became wet, one would expect her to have come up with a plausible cover story. After all, I did have fucked her silly, which meant that sooner or later, the signs of pregnancy would begin to manifest.
Honestly, besides Grandma Celia, I felt a strong urge to confront Ingrid and find out what the heck was going on in her mind. Regardless, after determining the number of potential babies I might have, the main conversation began. My mother took the lead, outlining the new arrangements within the compound going forward. It wasn't a serious discussion, mainly focusing on how they would share their chores and divide farm and market square responsibilities.
However, out of the blue, they unanimously decided that Grandma Ingrid and Derry would be tasked with finding a healer to conduct a swift pregnancy test and confirm their suspicions.
Thirty minutes later, during which we had our morning breakfast and engaged in meaningless chatter that I chose to exclude myself from, being more preoccupied with my own thoughts, exhaustion began to weigh heavily upon me. I observed as Grandma Ingrid and Derry returned with a doctor, a man who appeared taken aback by the lively atmosphere in our hut.
Perhaps he was surprised by the gathering of seemingly unattractive women in one place, or maybe it was my mother's request for him to examine the stomachs of the women I had fucked and confirm the presence of a potential life within. Nevertheless, the healer nodded his head and immediately commenced his examination. He carefully assessed all three women and concluded that they indeed carried the signs of pregnancy, except for one.
Surprisingly, I was mentally prepared to hear the news that all the women I had been intimate with were pregnant. So, when the revelation came that only Grandma Vivian was not carrying my child, doubt crept into my mind. After all, I vividly recalled the numerous times I had ejaculated inside her, making her the prime candidate for pregnancy. "Are you sure, healer?" my mother sceptically questioned, as they had already shared stories about my deceitful encounters with each other.
According to their understanding, as long as my penis penetrated their vaginas, pregnancy was almost guaranteed. As I observed my mother's bewildered expression, an uncomfortable tension hung in the air, and conflicting emotions surged through me. Waves of relief and hope washed over me, but I couldn't help but feel a pang of pity as Grandma Vivian quietly retreated to her seat.
The healer, with a determined expression, nodded in response, "Yes, I am sure. Besides, she has already passed her fertile years, so the results are not abnormal." Pausing briefly, the healer then directed his finger towards Grandma Celia and continued, "Anyway, compared to her, Miss Vivian is as healthy as any elder."
In the end, my mother and the others could only reluctantly accept the outcome and settle the payment with the healer, allowing him to continue with his day while we carried on with ours "So, what do we do now?" I finally spoke up, addressing all the women present. Perhaps it was the sight of Grandma Vivian's solemn and distant expression that had dampened the mood, but my mother looked at me with a tired smile and let out a sigh before she asked, "And what do you think we should do now, Orion?" Despite sensing that my mother had already considered numerous plans and options, I could also sense a lack of confidence in her demeanour.
Understanding the situation, I shook my head and voiced the only reasonable thought that came to mind, "Let's go meet the village chief. Since we have confirmed some of the pregnancies, we will need his assistance since this is an unusual situation. Besides, we should inform him now, or someone else might relay the news to him sooner or later."
