The sudden announcement came to a surprise to Phasma- along with a twinge of excitement. She always wanted to see what motherhood felt like, how she would act with a child of her own.
“Techie, that sounds, um… interesting,” she said, trying to hide her excitement.
Techie’s eyes whirred hard like overheated laptop fans, his lips an O. “Oh! Oh! S-stars above!” he squealed, pulling her into a tight embrace while still being careful with her stomach as if touching it might hurt the baby.
“We’re g-gonna be parents,” Techie cooed, incredulous. He kissed Phasma all over her face and shouted, “Woohoo!!” Let anybody hear him and think he was a nut; Techie didn’t CARE!
Phasma let out an ecstatic squeal, all her hopes would finally come true! She and Techie would be having a child, and everything would be fabulous! Swept up in the moment, she began to kiss Techie, peppering him with lipstick stains
In between fervid kisses, Techie says, awestruck, “When w-will we know the sex? And names! We need a list of n-names!” He rambles on about his top picks, talking faster and faster until he’s crying with happiness and all that comes out of his mouth are little incredulous squeaks.
Phasma laughed sweetly at Techie’s excitement, as her heart fluttered with joy as well. “Well, I’ll have to make an appointment with the doctor then? I wonder- will it be a boy or a girl? Who cares, I’m over the moon!”
Techie takes Lenina’s hands and decides to make a solemn pledge, right here and now. “I’m going to do wh-whatever is necessary to take care of you and our baby. I’ll be a good f-father, and a good partner.”
