On the Way Home I Got a Bride and Twin Daughters, Who Were Dragons Chapter 17
“…fuu, fuu”
I abruptly sat up.
“Fuaaaah!! Fuyaaahh!!”
Jaja has cried four times in 45 minutes.
“Ueeh…uaaaaaah!!”
Nana who was surprised by the sound also started crying for her third time.
“Hey Jaja, there’s nothing to be afraid of. What’s wrong, did you see a scary dream?”
I knocked away my vacant thoughts and picked Jaja up by her armpits.
I embraced her and rhythmically patted her back to soothe her.
“… Is it Jaja this time?”
Aoi ruffled her hair and sat straight up.
She vigorously took off her clothes and reached her hands out towards me.
“Like I said, please be more considerate of me.”
I reflexively turned away.
“S-sorry…guu”
She took Jaja from me and brought her up to her breasts.
I’m counting on you, I understand that you want to sleep, but do your best.
Jaja stopped crying and was immersed in sucking her breasts.
“Nana? Did you get surprised? Everything’s okay, let’s go beddy-bye?”
This time I held up Nana in my arms.
This one closes her eyes and stops crying the instant I pick her up.
I am thankful.
“Do all babies cry like this…?”
Pull yourself together, it’s still the first day.
“Babies crying at night is terrible and not being able to sleep are conversations that I often hear… though it’s beyond what I imagined…”
Was the first time around 11pm?
I was worn out and sound asleep on the dining room’s sofa when Aoi shook me awake with teary eyes.
“T-they’re not stopping〜”
It seems like she panicked when the twins started crying at the same time and came asking for my help.
I immediately went up to the second floor.

There was a horrible crying sound as I went up the stairs.
The room door was open and the chummy twin sisters were kicking and struggling on top of the bed.
I quickly held up Jaja.
I checked her diaper, there was nothing there.
“I just changed the diapers and even fed them, but…”
Aoi held Nana up.
“W-w-w-what’s wrong?”
Up we go. No reaction.
“Oh! It’s good they’re energetic!”. The door opened and my old man came in.
“F-father… sorry for waking you.”
Aoi grimaced with an apologetic expression.
“Nn, don’t worry about it. They’re crying as expected, huh.”
Old man, I don’t understand by myself, please help me.
“Here, let me try.”
He held out his arms and I handed Jaja over.
“Look, it’s every daygrandpa.”
He delightfully received her, hugged her in his chest and patted her back.
“Since there’s two of them, when one of them cries, the other will also be drawn in. You have to make them stop crying at the same time.”
“Y-yes”
Aoi imitated the old man and also patted Nana’s back.
After a short while, the crying stopped and both of them closed their eyes and dozed off.
“They finally stopped crying…”
I breathed out and sat on the bed. I didn’t do anything, but I was tired.
“Because they’re big for newborns, you have to make sure to hold them steady by their heads. Usually, it would take humans around half a year to get to that stage. Around that time is also when they start night crying.”
The old man said that while he handed Jaja over to me.
“Night crying, huh. I’ve heard of it.”
“It’s nothing special, it’s something everyone has to go through. Though it’s kinda harsh for you guys since they’re louder and rampage more violently.”

S-sorry.
“Do they only cry at night?”
Aoi slowly sat on the bed while holding Nana.
“Nope, they cry at night, in the morning and at noon. Since babies at this stage can only eat, sleep and cry.”
“T-that can’t be…”
Well, it would be problematic if they didn’t move around or make noise.
“Then, what should I do?”
“There’s no choice but to endure it, patiently help your partner.”
The amount of sleep I can get has decreased.
“It’s impossible for Aoinoun-chan to endure the twin’s crying by herself. You have to help her since you’re the papa after all.”
My old man laughed with a crooked smile.
You have the nerve to enjoy yourself.
“For the time being, I’ll try asking uncle rat to see if he has a way to deal with it since it’s going to be difficult like this everyday.”
“Everyday? That would be different.”
“Eh?”
“They’ll cry hourly when it gets awful. This is the most painful time for a parent with a baby.”
I-is this that?
Is this a death sentence?
“Rather than a method to make them not cry, it’s better to get the hang of stopping their crying. Since crying is the only way the baby can let you know that something happened.”
“T-that’s right, isn’t it.”
“Well, in my experience, it’s frequent diaper changes and adequate amount of breastfeeding. The rest is sound.”
Sound? Does he mean beat?
Is an eighth-beat good?
“When human babies are inside of the womb, the mother’s heartbeat acts as a lullaby. That’s why when you hold them close to your heart, it gives them a sense of security. They stop crying when you hug them to your chest, while you slowly and gently pat their backs. What we just did, it’s that kind of feeling.”
I-I see.
An experienced person’s words have persuasive power.
“Well, do your best. If anything happens, I don’t mind if you wake me up.”
“Oh, ah. Thank you.”
He said that and left the room.
That was about 2 hours ago, several times since then, Jaja has cried and then surprised Nana, then if Nana cries, Jaja won’t lose and would raise her voice.
I-I can’t sleep.
It’s certainly impossible for Aoi alone.
Before I knew it, I was lying on the same bed, with the twins between us, waiting.
“Such a small thing has such a terrible power…”
“Crying often is a sign of them being energetic and healthy, at least that’s what I would like to think.”
On the first day, we were groggy.
That happened at noon, so I’m tired.
“It would have been better if we asked the rat Alba more things. I want to know approximately when this night crying will stop.”
Motivation will increase if you can see the goal.
It seems that dragons live for a long time, it’ll be tough for another 6 months, if this continues for 10 years, I’ll collapse.
That fluffy bastard, even though we came back in the same car, he said the forest is easier to live in or something and disappeared to the back of the house.
“For the time being, let’s get as much sleep as possible.”
“I agree.”
The four of us sunk into the bed at the same time.
I gently tapped Nana’s back while Aoi gently tapped Jaja’s.
Damn, the night sure is long…
