~Ramuell~Since arriving at Two-Rivers, Shiya’s pregnant belly inflated like a balloon. Her back hurt but what seemed to bother her most was that her naval popped inside out. She slapped my arm when I laughed at her embarrassment. The fact was, she’s so cute the clanswomen couldn’t resist putting their hands on her tummy.
On the appointed day Shiya said she wanted to climb up the ridge to see Ipos. I was not certain that was a good idea, but she was adamant and I relented. It surprised me to hear the thrum of a quadcopter rather than the hum of the P-6 anti-grav mechanisms. I suppose the long walk from Blue Rock had me thinking our new home was much further from SWA-7 than it is. In fact, we’re well within a quadcopter’s range.
I walked into the clearing to wave the copter in.
