《ZER》FAMILY OF SIX
Advertisement
"All the single ladies!"
"All the single ladies!"
"Now put your hands up! Hand up!"
In front of me, Nat is giggling, she uses the table to help her stand up. Her chubby legs are wobbly, she is dressed in a cute light green romper with a white cotton-like shirt underneath. Her hair is short and uneven, with black eyes that seem twinkle with happiness. She grins widely showing her black gum and small black tongue.
While Ana and Lev are laying on the plush carpet trying to fit their fists into their mouth and kicking their legs excitedly. The twins are dressed similarly, only in different colors. Lev has a dark red long arm onesie and Ana has dark blue. Both of them are safe on the ground with their curious eyes scanning everything around them, and everything that I do. Dom is with his father somewhere, meeting some of the males.
Our small society is thriving, we have stocks of food, we are better at reading the weather, and mapping it, turns out, this planet has five seasons; winter, stormy, spring, summer, and fall. When we arrived was in the middle of summer, it was hot and very humid, now we are transitioning into the fall season. We finally established basic technology, we have buildings to keep us warm in the cold and cool in the heat.
At first, Kil found a way to install something like metal which is thermal conductivity, which means all Zer has to do is to press his hand on a metal plate and the whole buildings will be warm, or he could press his hand on the metal and take away all the heat, providing coolness in blazing days.
But then they installed wind turbines, a lot of them, like the whole hills on the north. They found natural gas, solar panels, we have a simple computer, farming machinery, oh, about that, we have a farm in the size of my old village, it is HUGE.
It's amazing how much can you accomplished when; 1). You can stop the time momentarily, 2). You can control one of the elements. I wonder what my kids' elements will be.
I'm now 17.109 days old, I'm around 46 years old now. Nat is 8.390 days, which means she should be around 23 years old, Dom is 7.313 days, which is around 20 years old. The twins are 2.200 days, which is around 6 years, human age, but I didn't give birth to a full human. Even Dom, which looks more like me than his father, ages so very slowly. It was difficult at first, if not because they don't require breast milk, I might have died from exhaustion.

I keep singing Beyonce songs, although I have to admit, I forgot some of the lyrics already. The kids love it when I sing and dance, so sing and dance I shall. So far motherhood has been so good to me. Although I have no other female here, the males are very attentive and helpful. They are always happy to help me with the babies, especially Lor.
He and Nat have the sweetest bond. I can leave her with him for the whole day and night and she will not miss me. I thank the universe for him because I have my hands full with the twins, Zer is very kind to take care of Dom, although secretly I'm a bit jealous because my second born is very attached to his father. I grew him, birth him, and he came out favoring his father.
What a traitor.
"If you like it then you should have put a ring on it!"
"If you like it then you should've put a ring on it!"
I hold one hand up and shake my hips while my audience is giggling. Their cute little face lights up looking at their mother make fun of herself attempting to shake her hips.
The last time I went to the club was like... before I got shipped outside of Milkyway, so please excuse me if my moves are rusty. Nat is holding on tightly on the edge of the coffee table with drool wetting her chin. By now Ana is asleep, clearly not amused by my dancing and I can see Lev is close to joining his twin sister.
"All the single ladies!"
"All the single ladies!"
All athe single ladies will stay single because no male will be worthy of my daughters.
I spin around to find Zer by the door with Dom asleep on his chest, his chubby cheek is squeezed on the hard planes of his father's shoulder, making his mouth open slightly, thus his drool flows freely to Zer.
I didn't know you're a good dancer, wife.
I grin at him. "You only say that because I can never do any wrong in your eyes, husband. I'm a terrible dancer if you can call what I did as dancing."
Zer walks towards me to give me a deep kiss, earning a giggle from Nat. I take Dom from him while Zer reaches down to his firstborn. I know he loves all of his children equally, but there is something special about the bond he has with his firstborn, more because it's a girl. I can see how he could never say no to Nat.

Nat happily grins and reaches for both of his cheeks with her chubby hands.
I missed you too. Zer says pressing his forehead to hers. Then he looks down at two sleeping babies on the floor.
"I'd say we leave them there, God forbid if they woke up now."
I'll get an extra blanket. Zer says walking towards the nursery. We have two nurseries, Nat and Dom share a room and the twins have a room for their own. I'd love to put them all in one room, but the twins still wake up every three hours, so I don't want them to disturb Nat's sleeping schedule.
I hum softly to my sleeping son. He is the most beautiful baby boy, in the history of the most beautiful baby boys. I can tell he will break a lot of girl's hearts in the future, unintentionally, of course, because I know we will raise him as a gentleman.
Dom is the only one with my color. But his hair is jet black, and so do his eyes and the inside of his mouth. I remember my breath stopped when I first saw his eyes, it was... demonic at first, but then I found the beauty of them, and now I love them so much.
I put Dom slowly inside his crib, praying he won't jerk awake, and quickly with my ninja move tiptoeing my way out of the room. Then I found Zer laying down on his side, with one arm bending to prop his head, with his other hand holding sitting Nat against his front. In front of them, the twins are sleeping peacefully.
I join them on the floor and give a kiss to my sleeping babies softly.
I dare to say that I'm the luckiest male in the whole universe. He says nuzzling Nat's head.
I smile at him, "And I'm the luckiest woman in the whole universe ."
I look at him closely, he hasn't aged a day since the day I saw him for the first time, and I know I've aged a lot. When I first noticed that I have grey hair, I was crying quietly in the bathroom. At that time I was thinking about what will happen after I die, who will take care of my children, who will care for my husband, I was so upset and feeling defeated.
Zer still look at me like he did the first time we met, he doesn't care about my frown lines, or laughing lines, or my crows feet, or how my cheeks are starting to sag down, and how the skin on my neck and the back of my hand isn't as smooth and tight as before.
I gave up on my hair, now I have a healthy amount of grey hair among my dark crown. Zer never says anything about it, I think he knows it upsets me.
Mer found something today. Zer reaches from his pocket and I get a glimpse of something shiny. He reaches for my palm and drops something quite heavy. I think it's a kind of precious stone.
I bring the shiny things closer to my eyes for further inspection. The things are... beautiful. It reminds me of moonstone but instead of cloudy white, it has a beautiful mix color of blue, pink, and purple. When I look closely I can see the colors swirl slowly.
"It's moving?" I ask him in disbelieve.
Yes, the purple is going towards the biggest magnetic field around, the blue is always moving to the south, and the pink, we still trying to find what causes the movement.
"It's beautiful, Zer, thank you," I say extending my neck to give him a peck.
It just comes to my attention that I've never given you any jewelry, or gold, I apologize, wife, I will try to make it up starting from today.
I smile and reach his face with my hand. "I don't need those things, I have everything I want, and need right under this roof."
He looks at me deeply, with what I believe is full of love and adoration.
I'm the luckiest male in the universe. Do you think Lor can babysit—
A knock at the door broke our sweet moment, I smile and get up to see who is behind the door, although I have a hunch of who will it be.
Good afternoon. Lor greets me. Speaking of the devil...
"Good timing!" I grin at him.
He sighs and looking between my husband and me. He doesn't say anything as I handed him, Nat.
"Have fun, you guys! Thank you Lor." I tell him sincerely.
No need to thank me, I enjoy her company. Nat doesn't even look at me when Lor got her, the little lady smiles so brightly and grabs him on his cheeks. As soon as the door is closed, I feel Zer behind me, with his hands on my hips.
Good timing indeed.
He wastes no time to hold me up and carries me to our bedroom, and inside, he takes his time and doubling his effort to shows me how much he loves me, and how he worships me, until the twins screaming, demanding some food.
