Code Zulu Alpha: Nerd in the Apocalypse!

As the night went on for a few more hours, let's just say it was nice to have more people in charge of aftercare—Mimi, Nancy, and Dr. Nichols—because before, it was almost always just me or with Kaley if I didn't go overboard with her.

It wasn't a requirement or anything because it was sort of a double-edged sword: it's great I have some help dealing with the mess after but it was making me think I haven't done enough because they could still walk.

But yeah, after taking care of everyone and putting them to sleep, the five of us enjoyed a hot soak in the bathtub. It was pretty crowded but two of us being small made it possible.

Kaley rolled her eyes, "Doofus… Pfft— You're thinking about that?! Weren't you the one who told me male rabbits need more female partners because they do it a lot and if there's only one female partner he could copulate with, the female might get overworked?"

Mimi chuckled, "I-I dunno about you guys but I'm fine with just one orgasm… multiples are good too but I do get very exhausted if it's one after the other… That's why I don't join these gatherings as much even though I've only been in a few because, you know… I get my daily steps but my stamina compared to all of you is just that bad…"

Nancy couldn't agree more, "Y-Yea… Me too… Being with the lady— I-I mean Miss Edith's already tough but I dunno, I think I'm getting good at it even with my asthma…"

Dr. Nichols caressed her hair, "Just don't overdo it, Nancy… But yeah, in my case, I'm feeling like a million bucks! Didn't think I still had it in me with my age—"

Kaley rolled her eyes again, "You're not that old! Besides, when are you gonna do it openly with Chloe? I know you're hiding something—"

Mimi nudged Kaley, "Kaley! That's—"

Dr. Nichols waved them off, "It's okay, Mimi… Haah… I technically birthed Chloe but… Hmm… How do I put this? I did give birth to her but I'm also not her real mother…"

'Hold up— Ah— Ohhhh…'

Nancy had to double-take, "Wai— How?!"

Kaley answered for her, "Surrogacy, right?"

Dr. Nichols and Mimi nodded solemnly though it was a little funny that Dr. Nichols was the one comforting Mimi instead. However, telling Nancy just the word of it didn't explain much so Dr. Nichols had to elaborate. I didn't think we'd have an impromptu class post-intercourse but the gist was, that a fertilized egg was put into Dr.

Nichols body and nine months later, she birthed Chloe instead of her real mother.

This was something prevalent even in this country before—because of the money involved—but there should be some reason why Chloe was living with her surrogate mother instead of her real mother.

Kaley stood firm, "Look… I'm sorry for pushing it but you two have been holding out this long for a reason that doesn't even apply to you both… Even Riri and Ruru— I know it's not the exact thing and it's taboo for most people to say the least but what I mean by openly doing it is you know… when we have these nights for us… It's there for a reason… And honestly, I wouldn't care either way…"

Mimi then turned to Kaley with a solemn expression, "Will you do it with Marisha or Olivia? Or even Mr. Matthew? Would you even allow them to get pregnant by him if they ask?"

Dr. Nichols tried to cut in but Kaley answered almost immediately:

"Alright, I think that's a fair question and you could judge me for all I care but… just for the sake of argument, if two consenting adults or a party decide to do it without hurting anyone else or without any cheating or infidelity involved—unless they're conceiving, because that's a different story altogether… Where's the harm in that?"

Mimi shyly answered, "M-Morality?"

Kaley slightly shrugged her shoulders, "Where do we draw the line though? This nightly activity of ours… Wasn't morality out of the picture already? *Points at me* We're not technically husband and wife and we're having sex out of wedlock but aren't you all doing the same? Why are we fine with murder and such—where actual people get hurt—and why are we so bent on this topic?"

I joined in, "I think it's apples to oranges… Those are two different things already— but yeah, I guess there's some correlation when it comes to morality. Then again, every day the line's getting blurry and blurry. Heck, the twins are already doing it and we don't even bat an eye… Not sure the twins or just twins, in general, get a pass while everything else is bad…"

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Obviously, the bathroom had gone quiet for a moment but Dr. Nichols spoke up:

"Look, since the cat's out of the bag—though I had the feeling you knew already, but… I mentioned that 'mistake' we: Chloe and I, did last time but— Hmm… I dunno… I cared for her all this time like a real mother should but I guess— Maybe?

We're even in the same room while we're doing all those things yet we don't do anything to each other even if we did do something before—which is weird, I know… but… Haa… There's just this wall between us still, preventing us from plunging to it but yeah… Time will tell… Maybe when it's just the two of us or maybe with a smaller group who wouldn't… you know… make it such a big deal—even though it really is—"

"I-I'm sorry—/ Sorry—" Kaley and Mimi apologized at the same time.

"AH—/Ah—"

"I—/You—"

"Go ahead—/Pfft— What are we doing?!"

I rolled my eyes, "Being cute? Side note, it's working."

Nancy interjected, "I still have to ask… sorry… Why do you two look so alike though? I really thought you were mother and daughter…"

I added, "And while we're at it, I'm gonna be shameless and ask who her real parents are—aside from you, of course. You might technically not be her mother but you're kinda are, just saying…"

Mimi added as well, "Does Chloe know though?"

Kaley chuckled as she turned to Mimi, "Now you ask questions… Pfft…"

"S-Shut up… I'm curious too…"

"Pfft…"

Dr. Nichols smiled before she chuckled, "You guys… One at a time, phew… alright… Why do we look like each other?

Luck of the draw, I guess, her real mom almost had the same features as I did but he-who-shall-not-be-name is still her real dad… I really was supposed to carry their child and pay me a huge sum of money so I could continue my studies but lo and behold, he divorced her in record time and went to me instead."

Everyone exclaimed, "WHAT?!"

"I know, I know… a lot more questions popped up but can't we just chalk it up to me being young and stupid? That's one of the reasons but add to that that I'm also broke and wanted to pursue being a doctor… Everything just added up and to be fair to the 'guy' he was really sweet and honest with me before… I just didn't think he'd look elsewhere once I got too old for him…"

Kaley cut in, "Despite everything, you're still beautiful, Ms. Sandara…"

"Thank you, you're drop-dead gorgeous as well, Kaley… And I wish I could think like you soon, it'll take me— I mean, us, some time but it depends… at least she's getting there while I'm still figuring things out on my own…"

"I really am sorry for pushing but—"

"It's okay, it's okay… I think that's what I really need, thank you—"

I asked, "Do you have a name, at least?"

"A name?"

"Chloe's biological mom, if you want, I might have a way to find out if she's still out there or you know…" Experience more on M-V-L

"R-Really?"
