Natsuki: (Startled) Oh! Good morning... I didn't realize you were already up. What time is it? Me: It's 6:30. Sorry for waking you up, I just wanted to check in and see how you're doing. Natsuki: (Yawning) It's fine, I guess. The baby was just having a little party in there, apparently. (Gently rubbing her baby bump) Me: (Smiling) I can see that. How are you feeling? Any discomfort or anything? Natsuki: Well, to be honest, I've been experiencing some backaches lately. Probably just because I'm carrying around all this extra weight. But overall, I feel okay. Just tired, as usual. Me: I understand. Growing a baby is hard work, after all. Is there anything I can do to make you feel more comfortable? Natsuki: Maybe a massage later would be nice. My lower back could use some relief. But right now, I just need a moment to fully wake up. Me: Of course, take your time. I'll be downstairs preparing breakfast. Let me know when you're ready. (Natsuki nods, and I leave her room, giving her some space and time to wake up at her own pace.)
