His mother was required to stay for another day before she was released, incase the pods missed sothing when they diagnosed her. His friends left after so ti after seeing the newborn babies.
It was also ti for them to leave. Kiro was a bit envious that his four new siblings had a birthday that fell on a national holiday.
When they arrived at the estate, Alora was throwing a tantrum that they left without her. Tried as they did to explain to her that she was asleep when they left, she didn't want to see reason. But when she saw 4 infants, that were introduced as her new brothers and sisters, she cald down a bit.
Loki was a bit shocked, he wasn't told about the pregnancy and he never really suspected anything. Everyone was happy about the new additions, but most didn't quite understand the work that went into taking care of newborns.
It would be a while before the Waynworth estate gets so peace and quiet.
The children would sleep with them for a while before they got them cribs. Their bed was big enough to accommodate all. That's what they believed in, they thought that served to strengthen their bond and besides, that only ant they needn't go far to attend to them when they woke up crying at night.
Those who went to the hospital were very tired. Kiro didn't even look at the computer, he figured it hadn't finished yet, so he went to sleep. He couldn't believe he spent new years in the hospital, but it wasn't a bad day overall.
The fatigue he had was from the previous nights he didn't sleep well, looking at the computer. So tonight, he fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow and woke up later than usual the next day.
"Slept well?" Vada asked him.
"Yes, isn't it too quiet for a house with newborns?" He didn't quite rember how it was with Loki but Alora was an angel as a baby. She didn't make a fuss.
"You slept through that, huh... They just went to sleep, your parents were up all night."
"Why do people have kids, seems like a not so worthy sacrifice." He mumbled.
"Beats , I don't want kids either."
Kiro nodded in agreent. He didn't hang with Vada much, she never talked a lot either. But he found himself admiring her sense on things.
He rembered he still had a mission, so he quickly ate breakfast and ran up to his room. Wilfred waited at the top of the stairs.
"I saw your computer." He said unprovoked.
"You went into my room? Wilfred that's a violation!"
"Of what?"
"I don't know, of sothing?"
"You left in a bit of a hurry, none of the ladies were willing to go in and clean, I had to. Sorry if I overstepped Sir." He said sincerely.
"That's—that's alright." He said trying not to seem guilty.
Wilfred gave him a knowing look, and smiled, he bowed slightly and left him to his devices. Kiro quickly ran into his room, he was worried that, maybe the thing was done and Wilfred saw sothing.
When he got there however, it was at 99%, he didn't know whether to celebrate or feel disappointed.
He sat at his chair, twiddling with his thumbs. All sorts of thoughts ran through his mind. He didn't know what information this will be, but could he really, keep to himself?
He contemplated telling, at least Hiro. He was having a whole debate in his head, going through the pros and cons of telling soone else about this.
He decided to tell him. He didn't need to do everything alone, his argunt was that, had his grandfather trusted soone else with this information, his death or capture wouldn't be in vain.
He'd have left soone else who knew what he knew. Incase Kiro was captured, Hiro would be the one leading them into the unknown realm the Sanctum had set up.
Besides, he thought he ca back for a reason. He had friends in this lifeti for a reason, he had no one to confide in his previous, but in this one he had loads of people. He wanted to take the first step into letting only the close ones in, and not try to do things all by himself.
He wasn't so chosen one that had to walk the road of a hero, this wasn't so story, it was real life.
With that, he called up Hiro to co hang. Hiro arrived way later than he anticipated, as if he was busy with sothing or soone.
"What's up?" He asked as he entered without knocking.
"You can't just enter without knocking!" Kiro reprimanded.
"Why not?"
"Who knows who I have up here with and what we're doing?"
"Haha, as if!"
Kiro pinched his nose, he couldn't believe the lack of belief in him, his best friend had.
"Anyway, I had sothing important to show you, it's about that thing, so don't forget we can't talk about it here."
Hiro nodded, confused what he ant. Though he could see their computer, and he could see the data being extracted and he didn't really connect the dots.
They waited for a few more hours, chatting about the girls in their lives and how they didn't want to go back to school now that they lived here.
But neither wanted to disappoint their parents, so they had to rough it out, they only needed to stay for 2 years and they'd be graduating and done with school.
Just then, a bunch of information showed itself on the screen. It was a lot, no wonder the computer took days to decrypt the data. It was a wonder to both of them that, the computer hadn't crashed.
It seed like his grandfather really knew what he was doing. They both looked and read the screen with baited breath.
"Who?" Hiro saw what it was and asked subtly.
"My grandpa." Kiro simply said, pointing at the necklace that was now missing the padlock.
