One day...
"What? Your wife is pregnant! How many months!" Dave grabbed the hands of the man before him and asked excitedly.
"Uh... y-yes... she's... she's two months along now..." Ise swallowed and nodded, his voice trembling...
"Hahaha! Wonderful! Quick! Right now! This instant! Take your wife home! Give her two years of maternity leave so she can rest at home! With full pay! Full pay! No, double pay!" Dave said with a delighted laugh.
"Isn't... isn't that a little too long...?" Ise asked in confusion.
"Too long, my ass! Hurry up, hurry up! Your wife doesn't have to do a thing for the next two years. Her only job is to rest at home and look after the baby!" With that, Dave kicked Ise out.
Ise stood blankly outside the office door...
Why... my wife's the one who's pregnant... so why does the Principal look even more excited than I am...?
Ise stood there in a daze for a while, but when he remembered he was going to be a father, a smile returned to his face...
Then, after working at the Kindergarten all day, Ise went home...
"Ise, what did Dave say?" Seeing her husband come home, Uzumaki Fusang quickly got up and asked.
"The Principal really is a wonderful man. Not only did he give you two years of maternity leave, but he's also paying you double for the whole time," Ise said with a smile.
"Isn't... isn't that a bit too..." Fusō was stunned for a moment after hearing that...
"I thought so too... but the Principal threw me out before I could say anything," Ise said with a wry smile.
"All right... I'll call Dave later to thank him." Since that was how things stood, Fusō couldn't really say much more.
At the dinner table...
