Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle by Heap Heap

After her training in the Island of Despair and studying medicine for over two years, Luca had developed a skill. She could
estimate the weight of anything that was in her hands.
Shanks had mentioned before that to be a good pharmacist, one had to be sensitive to the weight of things. In order to achieve
that, Shanks specifically asked her to train for two months to master that skill.
After seasoning the minced meat, she passed it to Aunt Neile.
“Ms. Craw, that's very impressive." Aunt Neile praised before wrapping the meat in plastic wrap and putting it in the fridge.
"Aunt Neile, you can go back early," Luca told Aunt Neile after washing her hands. She walked out of the kitchen with a plate of
washed fruits.
When she got to the living room, she heard Lanie say, "Ms. Luca, I'm done with my homework."
He was slightly smarter than Rainie, and the homework was fairly easy for him, so he would usually be the first to finish it. Today,
he finished it even faster because they were going to eat out.
"That was fast. Here, have some fruits and I'll check it." Luca placed the fruits on the coffee table and sat on the armchair before
picking up Lanie's workbook to check it.
Although Lanie was smart, Luca still checked it carefully until she was sure that there were no mistakes.
Then, she simply picked up a pen and signed Luke's name.
Then, Rainie finished hers too.
"Ms. Luca, I'm done with my homework." She handed over her workbook.
Luca continued to check their homework while Lanie ate the fruits. After a while, Luke still had yet to come back, so they asked,
"When is Daddy coming back?"
Rainie shook her head as she glanced at the time. If he was not working overtime, he should be home by now.
"Is Daddy working overtime again?" Tommy suddenly looked at his siblings. The three of them had negotiated with their father
this morning about going out for a family dinner.

They could not help but grumble at the thought of how busy their father was. Could it be that their workaholic dad forgot about
the dinner?
"I don't know." Lanie was not sure either.
Then, Tommy added, "If Daddy really forgot about it and is still at work, will we have nothing to eat?
Why don't we go ask Daddy?"
Lanie looked at his younger brother, who was worried about going hungry, and said coolly, “Daddy won't forget. Even if he did,
Ms. Luca is here. She won't let you go hungry. Hurry up and finish your homework. Don't call Dad."
He trusted that their dad would not forget.
Their mom was the most important person to him. Tonight's dinner was also a date for their mom and dad, so there was no way
their dad would forget tonight's dinner because of work.
"Okay," muttered Tommy after listening to Lanie. He continued concentrating on his homework.
Luca listened to the kids' conversation and glanced at the time. If Luke was not working overtime, he indeed would have been
back by now. Did something go wrong at the hospital?
She glanced at the children. Lanie and Rainie were sitting on the sofa, eating fruits and reading.
On the other hand, Tommy was working hard to finish his homework.
Luca thought to herself that if Luke came back late, she would not let the children go hungry.
However, if something really happened at the hospital, she could not leave the children at home...
Luca's eyebrows knitted together at the thought of that.
Rainie noticed that her mind was drifting off, so she asked, "Ms. Luca, did I make a mistake?"
Then, Luca came back to her senses and shook her head. "No. Are you all hungry?"
"No. I have fruits," Rainie replied with a smile as she took another bite of fruit.
Luca smiled and nodded as she signed Luke's name on Rainie's workbook.

"You didn't make any mistakes. I've signed it, so you can come here and put it away." Luca handed her the workbook.
"Thank you, Ms. Luca." Rainie took it and looked at the signature. She could not help but feel a little sentimental. When would
their mother be able to sign her real name on their workbooks?
Their father always told them that the time would come soon, but until now, their mom still had a different identity.
Even though so many things had happened, she still had no intention of admitting her true identity.
Rainie had always been very patient. However, not only was she getting impatient now, but she was getting anxious and worried
too.
More than ten minutes later, Tommy finished his homework.
"Ms. Luca, I've finished my homework too!" After handing Luca a few of his workbooks, he sat on the sofa and picked up a book
too. Like his older brother and sister, he sat on the sofa, ate fruits, and read.
Not to mention, they were also waiting for their father.
After Luca checked Tommy's workbook and was about to sign it, the sound of a car engine came from the garden.
The children heard it too, so they put their books down and smiled.
Rainie said, "Daddy must be back."
"Yup, he didn't forget." Lanie looked at the time. He was about 20 minutes later than usual, but it was understandable. Besides,
the traffic was usually bad during peak hours.
It was okay to be a bit late, as long as he did not forget.
Lanie looked at his younger siblings' happy faces with a poker face, and then, his gaze fell upon Luca. Seeing the relieved look
on her face, he could not help but wonder the reason behind her expression. Lanie found it strange, but he did not ask why.
After parking the car, Luke strode in and saw Luca and the kids in the living room. His stern face then softened into a grin.
“I'll go upstairs to change, then we'll go," he said. His formal attire was not very appropriate for a family dinner.
"Okay, Daddy," said the three kids in unison, whereas Luca nodded.

Luke quickly went upstairs.
Then, Luca's gaze fell upon Tommy's workbook. Some of his handwriting was rather messy, and she could not just ignore it.
It was important for children to have good handwriting, especially when they sat for the SATs in the future.
Luca pointed to the workbook and said, "Tommy, you should practice your handwriting."
"Huh?" Tommy walked up to her and looked at where she pointed.
"It's too messy. Is it like that because you did your homework in a rush?" Luca figured out the reason behind the kid's sloppy
handwriting.
Despite that, she still thought that he should practice his handwriting. Messy handwriting was a sign of impatience.
It was fine for him to be a bit playful, but he could not be impatient.
Practicing his handwriting was a good way to train him to be more patient.
Tommy smiled and nodded. "Yes. I was afraid that Daddy would come back soon..."
"Why don't we start practicing your handwriting tomorrow?" Although it was a question, Luca said it with certainty as she had
already made the decision for him.
