For a long while, everything was normal. 사과 브랜디 (now a strong filly) and I worked the orchard while Granny and Ma cooked. Pa worked on his artwork. Everything was normal.
Until one day.
Pa kissed 사과 브랜디 on the head as he packed his paintings into the back of his cart. "When will 당신 be back?" whined Applejack. "I'm just goin' to the art fair on the other side of town," he explained. "I'll be back soon, my little apple."
And with that, he pulled the 카트 onto the long road that winded through Ponyville.
사과 브랜디 leaned on me. "Big Mac?"
"Eeyup?"
"Has Mama been actin' strange lately?" 사과 브랜디 looked at me with young, yet wise eyes.
I wondered about that. I had noticed Ma's strange behavior, but I hadn't thought much about it.
Just then, Ma came out. "Supper!" she called to us, and AJ and I trotted into our farmhouse.
Ma sat us down at the table. "Now, young 'uns, I have a big announcement to make..."
사과 브랜디 and I exchanged excited looks. Could this possibly be the reason why she's been off lately?
"I'm... well, I'm havin' another baby."
Applejack's mouth, which had been chewing a heap of mashed potatos, fell open and the white, mushy 음식 fell out, back onto her plate.
"You're--you're jokin'." I said, shocked. "Another baby? 망아지, 콜트 또는 filly? When's it due?"
"It's due in four months, and it's a filly, honey."
I sank back onto the cushion that we sat on for dinner. Another little sister? "So that means... you've been pregnant for 7 months?" (True fact. Ponies and 말 are pregnant for 11 months.)
사과 브랜디 was still gaping with her mouth open, her green eyes huge.
"I'm... I'm gonna be a big sister." All of a sudden, she grinned, her ears perking up. "Big Mac, isn't this awesome?!"
"I... well... yeah... but..." I was still too surprised to react properly.
사과 브랜디 danced around my hooves. "Yee-haw!"
We went to 침대 early that night. I saw the light in Applejack's room being flickered on and off. She was seemingly too excited to fall asleep.
I smiled, and fell asleep.
A few 시간 later, however, I was awoken 의해 a scream and sobbing downstairs.
TO BE CONTINUED...
