บท 3: Baby life

He just left me in darkness. Shouldn't I suddenly open my eyes or be able to move my body just like in a manga. Why am I still stuck in the same place.

What was my previous name again? I can't remember. I try to recall the names of my family members. Nothing. I guess that god really kept his promise huh. IF THAT IS SO WHY AM I NOT BEING REBORN!

"AHHHHHHH! AHHHHH!"

I suddenly hear screams and feel the something constricting around me, as if it was pushing me out. I had learnt biology in school and put two and two together. Am I in a womb and going to be born now? I felt the walls around me pushing me further. Those must be the walls of the uterus, I never knew I would be able to get a first hand experience of whatever I learnt in school. Suddenly, I felt like I was being sucked into a vacuum cleaner and I felt a pair of hands around me.

"WAaaahhhhhh!Waaaaahhhh!" I immediately started crying. It was on impulse, I couldn't even stop if I wanted to. I knew it was instinctive for babies to cry when they are born, I even felt relieved, it would be bad if I had to pretend to cry. I tried to open my eyes, well that did not work. I guess my eye muscles have not developed enough yet.

I felt myself being wrapped in a blanket and passed to somebody else. The person held me closely and I could feel their warmth passing through me.

" My baby, you finally came out. I love you so much. Your name will be Nakamura kaen and you will always be my baby." I heard a female voice speak to me, that must be my mother.

"Dear, its our baby. You can't leave me out of this. We created him together." I heard a deep and calming man's voice. I assume that should be my father.

"Hey! He was in my stomach for 9 months! You did nothing, all you did was help at the start."

"I did carry you around the garden and fed you when you were tired for 9 months. You should at least give me partial credit, maybe 40%?"

Giggle*." I was just kidding, we are going to raise our kid together. I know he will grow up to be an amazing person like you."

"What are you talking about dear, you are the amazing person."

I heard giggles again. Are my parents actually trying to flirt in front of me. This is awkward. Technically babies aren't supposed to understand all of this so flirting in front of them is acceptable, but I did reincarnate.I wonder how much longer will this have to last.

2 months later***

I finally was able to open my eyes! I looked around at my unfamiliar world. I was currently lying in a crate with my mother sitting in a crate just beside me. I looked around curiously, trying to gather as much information of this world as possible. Let me see, my mother was a beautiful woman with greyish hair. She looked just like a model! I actually wouldn't be surprised if she was one considering her looks.

Hold on, she has colored hair, that means..... I'm an MC! Lets go! I continue observing the room around me, I see paintings and a pile of baby toys placed at the side. I look closely at the paintings, did my parents hire someone to paint me as a baby? How much money do they actually have?

I turned to look at my mother again and realized she was staring right back at me. Her face full of joy. She gently grabbed me and lifted me up, staring straight into my eyes.

"My kaen! My Kaen! Can you see me! Yes I'm the first person you actually see, I beat that father of yours!" She said excitedly while holding me. Eventually, she took out her phone and starting video calling someone, I guess it was my dad.

Here we go again, the love between this couple is insane.

3 years later**

My parents are also big basketball fans, this is an added plus. They have been watching nearly all the NBA games and telling me about the teams. However, the most shocking thing that I found out was that not only are all the NBA teams exactly the same, the NBA players are too, just that their efficiency is off the charts.

Take Stephen curry for example, his playstyle is still the same, but now he is literally pulling up from half court and making 80% of his shots. To be honest, I suspected this from the beginning as in the anime they once mentioned Shaq and how dominant he was. However, I did not expect them to be this good!

But watching the NBA games also answered another question of mine. The generation of miracles do not make every shot they take. I was always curious why the games were so low scoring, every game had a score of slightly above a 100 points but the generation of miracles were apparently making every shot. I assume the anime simply exaggerated their scoring abilities but they were still highly efficient scorers.

I should have to wait about 3 more years before my body becomes developed enough to play basketball. Now I cannot even dribble the ball if I wanted to as the ball was nearly a quarter of my size.
