Hey everybody! Happy Thanksgiving, to those of you who celebrate that.

I am thankful for LatyfeSurLeSora, my faithful reviewer and supporter. I am also thankful for finally finishing writing this story and finding the ability to update this story fairly often. Also, I'm thankful for Tala. Because he rocks my socks:)

This chapter is short and cliff hanger like. I like the plot but I'm not sure about the writing. Oh well! Read and enjoy, and review! I'll give you pie:)

Chapter 12 That Darn Keera, Breaking Water Glasses!

Keera woke up on January 13th when it was still dark outside. She went into the kitchen to get some water while Tala was asleep in his room. He awoke as he heard a crash. He jumped out of the bed and ran to the kitchen.

"Keera, are you all right?"

"My water broke!" she screamed.

"Yeah, I can see that..." he said, looking at the broken glass on the ground.

"Not that water, you dumbass! I'm having a baby!!"

"Oh, oh! That water! Ok, uhm, I'll... Well, let's go, let's go, we have to get you over to the hospital!"

"Call Sherrie, and Gabi! And Lynn!" Keera demanded as they wheeled her into her room at the hospital, "And Kai! If Kai isn't there I'll kill him!" Tala called Gabi and told her to call Lynn, and he called Sherrie and told her to call Kai.

"It's ok, babe, they're all coming."


Keera was in bed having contractions when Tala's cell phone rang.

"Tala, I can't get a hold of Kai! I've called his cell and his home phone, and I've left a bunch of messages, I even sent Ozuma to his house but we can't find him!"

"Shit, ok, uhm, call his friends and have them help you. I can't leave, have to stay here. Call me again later."


It was noon. Tala was in the waiting room with Gabi, Sherrie, and Lynn. He had been with Keera most of the day. She had been having contractions for the last seven hours. His hands couldn't take being squeezed to death much longer. A bunch of people were looking for Kai. No one could find him...


Several hours later, Tala was back in Keera's room, holding Jake in his arms. Keera had twins. She was holding Kaitlyn and was waiting for the doctor to return. Tala and the babies were being DNA tested. Kai still hadn't been found.

Keera and Tala sat in silence. Keera was watching Tala hold Jake, but then looked down at Kaitlyn. She didn't need the tests to tell her who the father was. She could see it in the babies' eyes. But she wanted to be sure.

Kai entered the room. "Hey baby," he said, his voice filled with guilt.

"Where have you been?" Keera asked, handing Kaitlyn to Tala. "Take them to the nursery, would you?" So Tala left with the twins.

"I was at home."

"Why didn't you come?" she asked calmly.

"Why aren't you mad?"

"Oh, I am very mad, I assure you. But I am very tired and not very surprised."

"I sorry baby. I was scared I didn't know if I was the father or not, and I didn't want to be here if I wasn't."

"Father or not, I wanted you to be here. Tala's been here for eighteen hours. He's tired, but he's been here with me. What do you think that tells me?"

Tala reentered the room. "Tala, why don't you go home?" Keera suggested. "You could use some sleep."

"I'm fine. I don't want to leave you."

"I'll be fine, Tala."

"All right," he kissed her forehead and left.

"I guess I should go too," Kai said dejectedly.

"Kai, stop being stupid. It doesn't matter who the father is, things won't change between us. I'm still your girlfriend, if you want me to be."

Kai smiled. "Ok. No more cheating on me though." He said lightly.

The doctor came into the room. "I have the test results Ms. Ross."

"And?"
