Nathaniel's body felt like it was being squeezed and he could hear, "One more push Mrs. Akira, the baby is almost out!" After a few seconds, he finally came out.

Nathaniel couldn't open his eyes completely, but he could barely open them a little. He couldn't see everything around him clearly, but he could hear what was happening, and from all the applause that followed, with congratulations, he could tell that he had just been born.

Before he could fully understand what was happening around him, his bottom was hit, which made him cry for a while before he calmed down again.

"How would you like to call him Mrs. Akira?" One of the nurses asked.

"I think my last name is Akira, not bad," Nathaniel thought.

"His name is Ren" Nathaniel, or rather Ren could hear a soft and faint voice.

The mother reached out to take the baby from the nurse as she gave him his name.

"I'll register him right away," the nurse said as she left the room.

Ren was now face to face with his new mother, he could barely make out her face, she had messy white hair from childbirth, and her eyes were gray.

"I'm so sleepy." Ren couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep in his mother's arms.

When Ren woke up again, he was in a baby's crib, he couldn't move. His head felt like it weighed a ton, all he could do was move his arms and stare at the ceiling.

"This is boring, I think I'll try to sleep again," Ren thought. After staring at the ceiling for a while, when he closed his eyes, a shadow appeared over him.

'Oh, it's the nurse.' Ren saw that it was a nurse. The nurse picked Ren up, he could now see her a little better, she was in her early twenties, she had a beautiful face, her hair was purple and she had yellow eyes.

"She's beautiful, isn't she?" Ren thought.

As Ren looked at the beautiful nurse, she placed a bottle in Ren's mouth. He began to drink the warm milk inside it, the test went well. After he finished eating, the nurse changed the diapers he was wearing. He felt embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do. The milk helped Ren sleep. The same thing happened to Ren every few hours or so.

After staying in the hospital for a few more days, with the same routine of feeding, sleeping, and changing diapers, he was finally transferred to his mother's room.

From what he could tell from the nurses chatting around him, his mother was very exhausted after the birth. They thought she wouldn't survive, but fortunately, she did.

Ren, inside the crib, was now in a different room, with a bed and a woman sitting on it.

"Hello Ren, sorry I couldn't see you before," Ren's mother said as she picked Ren up.

"What's going on! Are all the women in this world beautiful or what? Ren now saw his mother, without messy hair or sweat, she looked very pretty.

'Now that I think about it, where is my father?' Ren wanted to know more about his family situation, but he couldn't do anything, he just stayed with his mother as she carried him around the room while walking and singing a song to him.

The next day, Ren and his mother were discharged, after being examined by the doctors and assuring Ren's mother that he was healthy and that she would be fine too, but that she shouldn't overdo it.

After they left the hospital, they arrived in front of a medium-sized, two-story house with a modern appearance.

Ren was impressed by the house. After entering the house, a portrait near the stairs caught Ren's eye. It was his mother, with a man who looked to be the same age as his mother or maybe a few years older. He was taller than his mother, had golden brown hair and silver eyes, a handsome face with some facial hair.

His mother was so excited to walk around the house carrying Ren, so he gave her a tour of the place. Nothing else happened that day.

[One week later]

While Ren and his mother were in the living room, the door opened and the same man from the portrait ran in. When my mother saw him, she got that pouty look on her face.

"Sorry, Yui, I was late, but I promise I tried to be on time!" he said as he tried to give my mother a kiss on the forehead.

"You're ten days late, no excuses," my mother said as she pushed him away.

I could tell she was teasing him, but he still tried to apologize, well, she forgave him after lecturing him for thirty minutes about how he's always late. After the lecture, the man I could only assume was my father came to pick me up.

"You're lucky to have your mother's face and-"

"Good thing he only has your eyes" My mother interrupted him before he could finish,

"Hey, I said I'm sorry, besides, I'm handsome and all the women want me" he said with a proud look on his face

"Of course you did." Mom said sarcastically.

"By the way, Yato, why didn't you call me to pick you up at the airport?" After the little show, my mom, whose name I found out was Yui, asked my dad.

"Well, I thought you might be busy with Ren, so I didn't want to bother you."

After some conversation about my dad's job and his trip back, I found out that he works for an electronics company. For the past three months, he had to work at one of their locations in the US.

[6 months after Ren's birth]

Nothing interesting happened, my dad is very funny. I was surprised by the way my parents talk to each other, they seem more like friends than a couple, they like to tease each other occasionally. Well, they seem like a happy couple to me.

Yesterday, while trying to make a sound, I accidentally said "ma", and mom wouldn't stop teasing dad about how I love her more. Since then, dad has just sat with me and tried to teach me how to say it "Daddy." Whenever Mommy sees him trying to make me say "Daddy," she just laughs to herself.

They were really surprised and happy when I started crawling. Mommy started rearranging the house so that I wouldn't get hurt while crawling, and she even put up a small fence at the top and bottom of the stairs.

[9 months after Ren's birth]

Since I started making some sounds 3 months ago, Mommy started reading me more stories. I even started saying some smaller words recently. I also learned what my parents' Quirks are. Dad has a Quirk called Sunlight. His Quirk allows him to store a certain amount of sunlight inside his body that he can discharge at will. Mommy had a Quirk called Intangibility. Unlike the character Mirio, Mommy can only turn part of her body at a time, so she can't fall to the ground like Mirio.

When I saw my dad wielding the Sunlight while relaxing on the backyard porch, I was fascinated and wanted to see more. Don't get me wrong. Intangibility is cool, but I like the light more, well, I have both so no problem.

And when he found out that his quirk caught my attention, he started teasing my mom, saying that his quirk was cooler than hers.

[1 year after Ren's birth]

Today is January 1st, my first birthday in this world. I heard my dad say that his parents, my grandparents, are coming.

In the last month or so, I've started moving around more often, and I could use a few words. But I've never been able to leave the house. Mom only goes shopping when Dad is home, and other than that, she and I spend all our days at home until Dad gets back from work.

*Din. Dong.*

The doorbell rang and Father went to open the door and there were two people, one was a tall man with black hair with streaks of gray and white due to his advanced age, he had sharp facial features and a stern look on his face. The other was a woman who seemed to be about the same age. She had golden brown hair, she only reached the old man's shoulder in height, but she had a much softer look on her face than the man.

"Mother, Father, I'm glad you came," Father exclaimed happily.

"How is Yato? And how is Yui? Of course, how is my grandson?" The old man asked.

"We're all fine, please come in," Father invited them into the house.

"Hello, Yui, sorry I didn't come visit earlier," the older woman and my mother chatted for a while.

After all the greetings were over, the older couple approached me.

At first, I was scared of the old man because of his stern look, but he was actually very nice to me. And grandma was very kind.

One thing that intrigued me was that my grandma kept giving me candy that she pulled out of nowhere.

When she noticed my confused look, she started showing off.

After my parents and grandparents talked for a while, we decided to start my birthday party.

My parents brought out the cake and we started celebrating. It's great to have a birthday party with a loving family.

When it came time for the presents. My parents gave me toys that I was kind of looking forward to playing with, and my grandma, once again pulling something out of nowhere, put a necklace around my neck.

They spent some more time chatting and catching up. My grandparents spent the night there and left the next morning after breakfast.
