Chapter 9

It seemed like years since she rang the doorbell.

What did her parents want from her?

When she was about to turn around and go back home the door has been opened.

A young maid greeted her,

"Good evening Mrs. Danes. Please come in." the maid said and Lorelai entered her parent's house.

"Hey, I know you. You were here the last time I was here. Congratulations that you're still here."

The maid smiled a little bit and then disappeared.

Well… there she was… in her parent's house. She had a queasy feeling. No one was here to support her. Neither Luke nor Rory.

She swallowed hard and then went to the living room step by step.

And there they were, Emily and Richard Gilmore, her parents.

Emily had her back to her but Richard saw her almost immediately. As he saw her he had a big smile on his face.

"Lorelai, nice to see you!" he hugged her and whispered "I missed you" into her ear. Lorelai was totally confused. Did her dad really say what she thought he had said? Did he really say that he missed her? She was speechless. She never heard a loving word from her parents before and if they had said one, she couldn't remember it.

They broke apart and Richard looked at his daughter.

"These three have grown a lot." He said and stroke over her belly.

"Let's sit down." And with that Lorelai and Richard sat down on the couch where Emily already sat.

"Hey mom"

"Lorelai" was the only word the two of them said.

Richard tried to lighten the mood.

"Lorelai, you look great and so happy. How are you? Where is Luke?" he began to start a conversation.

"Thanks Dad, I'm feeling great! Uhm… Luke took the day of to build the last crib for the nursery so he couldn't come." Lorelai said with a smile on her face. She was happy that her father was so interested in Luke, the babies and her and she wanted to tell him everything. But there was still Emily.

"Oh, that's ok. Are you done decorating the nursery?"

"Yea we are" she said and sipped on her water.

"Can I ask you if you know what the sex of the babies are?" Richard asked carefully. He was scared to say the wrong thing.

"Yes dad, you can. We are having two girls and a boy and we decided the names. Leyla, Linnea and Leo."

Richard began to beam but Emily gasped at Lorelais words and got up from the couch.

Lorelai and Richard looked at Emily confused. They saw how her eyes were filled with tears.

Lorelai had no idea what was going on. What was wrong with her mother? At first she said nothing about the fact that she is expecting triplets, then she hadn't heard anything from her in month and now when they saw each other again she was almost crying. She never saw her Mom like that before.

"Mom, what's going on?" she asked worried.

"Nothing… it's just…" But she couldn't say anything more because she began to sob. Lorelai shrugged. What was wrong with her Mom? Somehow she felt sorry for her.

"You're crying. There must be something, Mom. Please talk to me."

"It's not so easy, Lorelai"

"Oh come on. At first you're totally shocked that I'm having triplets and now you're crying. That's not normal, Mom."

"Ok, I'll tell you. You know that I have a sister. We're twins and…" she swallowed nervously. "And… we… but actually we were triplets."

Now it was Lorelai who was speechless. Why didn't she know about that? She really doesn't have a good relationship with her parents but why didn't she know this?

"Oh mom…"

"Yes and because of that I reacted like that. We had a brother. When you said you're having triplets I remembered all this again. I don't really know my brother. He died as a baby because of SIDS but years later I noticed how my mother suffered. She never really celebrated our birthday and we never saw her on the anniversary of his death." Emily sobbed and Lorelai was totally shocked to hear such a story from her mother.

"Mom, I'm so sorry! If I had known about it…"

"No Lorelai, You don't have to be sorry. Don't blame yourself for it. And please believe me that I'm really happy for you that you're having triplets and I'm really sorry that I reacted like that." Lorelai couldn't believe it. This was the first time that her mother apologized for something. Now she had tears in her eyes. She wanted nothing more then to hug her mother. Which she did, she stood up and hugged her.

"I love you" Emily whispered in her ear and Lorelai had to smile.

"I love you too, Mom." She answered and they slowly stopped hugging each other.

Richard sat there the whole time ad watched the interaction between his wife and daughter. He was happy that they had talked and that everything seemed ok now.

A moment later the maid came in and announced that dinner was ready to be served.

During dinner they talked more than ever before. Lorelai told her parents everything about the last month and about the preparations for the birth. At 10:00pm she called herself a cab.

"Mom, Dad, I'm going out. I need some fresh air. Thanks for dinner and I'm happy we talked."

"It was nice to have you back here Lorelai. Get home save" and with that she walked out of her parent's house. She walked up and down the driveway for a little while. Her thoughts were somewhere else when she heard a crack behind her. She turned around but there was no one. She probably just imagined it. She turned around and began to walk back up the driveway… and there it was again… CRACK… damn that's creepy, she thought and as she wanted to turn around again to go back to the house she noticed a shadow.
