summerbutterflyMy first drabble, and apparently I had the same sort of interpretation of "labor." Hope that's okay.
Challenge: Labor
Gojyo’s face was paler than Hakkai had ever seen it. Which would have made Hakkai laugh if he hadn't been so focused on the tiny bundle in his hands.
“It’s a girl.” He smiled up at Yaone. “A healthy baby girl.”
Yaone’s lower lip quivered. She held out her arms and Hakkai handed her the newborn, getting a little teary himself when Jien knelt down beside her to stroke his daughter’s cheek.
Hakkai went to Gojyo’s side.
“That’s a baby,” Gojyo whispered.
"Yes," Hakkai said.
"My niece."
"Yes."
Gojyo tucked a strand of hair behind his ear. "You're gonna help me spoil her, right? And teach her all the stuff that uncles teach?"
"Absolutely," Hakkai promised, and Gojyo smiled.
