"And I'm yours, Lincoln. Oh, I almost forgot. I made something for you too."
"Awesome. I love the clothes you make."
Leni gave Lincoln a new set of clothes. Which consists of a white shirt, an orange plaid shirt, and blue jeans."
The boy tried them on, changing in front of the girl. This did not embarrass him. After all, he didn't have anything that the girl hadn't seen the night before.
"How do I look?"
Leni approaches Lincoln, "so handsome."
"Ho ho. I'm going to go make breakfast." Lincoln kisses her and leaves the room, heading to the kitchen.
Meanwhile, Leni sits on her bed with the dress in her hands. The girl contemplates the clothes for a moment, then hugs them, putting on a smile.
In the kitchen.
Lincoln prepared a breakfast of eggs, bacon, toast, and coffee for the older people and juice for the younger ones. The smell filled the air. Leni was the first to come with Lori.
The eldest sister had just come out of the shower, as her previous appearance was terrible. She was also suffering from a bad hangover due to the fact that the night before she had run away from home to go out drinking at a bar and had returned at 4 am Her depression soon drove her to alcoholism.
Walking into the kitchen with Leni, she saw something that could have been left by the alcohol in her system.
Before her eyes, she saw, for a moment, her dead boyfriend. But after she rubbed her eyes, she only saw her brother.
It was understandable, because the clothes Leni made for Lincoln were practically the same clothes that Bobby used to wear. Except for the shirt color. The clothes were similar, down to the smallest detail.
Lincoln turned to hear the girls' footsteps.
"Is that you, Leni?"
"Yes. Lori's here too."
"Oh. Great. Have a seat. Breakfast's almost ready. Oh. But first, can you wake up the others?"
"Of course." Leni went up to her sisters' rooms. Leaving just Lincoln and Lori.
The girl couldn't stop looking at her brother. Those clothes were very familiar, and she couldn't help but ask.
"Where did you get these clothes?"
"Oh, do you like it? Leni made it for me. It's great, isn't it?"
Lori didn't answer. She just looked down silently. This surprised Lincoln. But he let her go. He knew Lori was having a hard time dealing with her grief.
After breakfast, both sisters went to their rooms. For his part, Lincoln left for his grandparents' home to feed his pet.
Meanwhile, in Leni's room,
The girl was knitting a pair of green shoes, similar to her dress. At that moment, someone entered her room. It was Luna, who was beaming from the fun of the previous night.
"Ooooh. What a good party! Hey? This isn't my room."
"You're in my room, Luna."
"Oh? Oh, haha, sure. I'm sorry. I'm still a little drunk." Luna's gaze landed on Leni's knitting and Leni's fabric on her bed. "Leni, what's that over there?" she asks, pointing to the few clothes.
"Oh. It's clothes for the baby I'm having with Linky."
Which made the alcohol in Luna's system wear off. "What did you say!?"
Luna's scream alerted the sisters, who were crowding at the door. Before that could happen, Leni hid the baby clothes.
"What was that scream, Luna?" Lola asked.
"Nothing. I'm just a little drunk."
"Okay, little drunk?"
The twins, Lisa and Lily, left. But Lucy and Lynn stayed. Since they knew Luna was lying,
Lynn enters with Lucy and closes the bedroom door. "Okay. Tell us why you screamed."
Luna walked towards Leni's bed, and from under it, she took out the clothes.
Lucy was shocked when she saw the clothes. "Leni... maybe... you and Lincoln are going to..."
Leni puts her hands on her stomach and smiles. "I don't know yet."
"But when did you do that?"
"Last night. That was amazing."
Lucy clenched her fists in frustration.
"Yes. Leni is the eldest. We hope she has benefited from us in that regard. Although we will have to explain to Mom and Dad about this child,"
Lynn looked away with a guilty expression on her face as she held out her arm.
The girl couldn't hide the secret that even Lincoln didn't know. "Girls, Lincoln won't be able to give us children."
The girls turned to see Lynn, who couldn't hide her sadness.
"What do you mean by that? Lynn?" Luna asked.
"A few weeks ago. Shortly after Lincoln returned, I found one of Lisa's videos."
"In the video... she explained that the accident that happened three years ago caused something strange to happen to Lincoln because of a chemical that was nearby."
"What does that have to do with what you told us?" Lucy asked.
"Apparently, everything that went into Lincoln that day... made him sterile; he couldn't have children."
That news was like a ton of rocks falling for the girls. Especially Leni.
"Never... We'll never be able to... Are you... drunk?"
"No, Leni. Lincoln can't have children. I'm so sorry."
Leni stares at the socks and shoes, hugs them to her chest, and begins to cry.
The girls went up to Leni and hugged her, comforting their sister.
In the grandparents' house.
Lincoln pulls a large piece of fresh beef from the basement refrigerator and places it on the wolf's plate.
"Here you go, boy."
The wolf comes out of the shed and begins to devour the meat.
Lincoln sits next to the wolf, thinking about what Leni told him.
Baby. The truth is, I would very much like to have children. But I'm still too young for that, though. In time, I will get them. But now is not the time.
That night. The whole family gathered at the Loud house for dinner. Well, Luna had a very important announcement.
To celebrate the news, Mr. Loud prepared steaks.
Luna hit a cup with her fork, attracting everyone's attention.
