Meena Adalita Paroom

I'm so happy now that I am finally married! I made peace with my family just like I wanted to. I am now in Newt's house for Mrs. Livingston's baby shower. I was eight months pregnant and Mrs. Livingston was nine months pregnant so any time from now she could give birth. We were there for the baby shower. I gave Mrs. Livingston yellow baby pajamas since yellow is a color made for both genders. I sat there with my growing stomach wearing a floral maternity dress. I was sitting next to Mrs. Livingston who was enjoying the pizza and eating as if it was her last time eating. I was slightly hungry as well. Newt watch his mother and I ate and could do nothing but stare. Mr. Livingston was outside talking to my dad while my mom had to be somewhere with grandma. She was my grandmother's new business partner in raising yaks so the two were somewhere in Bahavia, again. Cory couldn't make it since he was visiting his sister in San Francisco.

"Boy, you two women sure eat more than I do when I'm hungry!" Newt said, quite freaked out by our heavy eating.

"Of course honey, Meena and I are both pregnant." Mrs. Livingston said, giving her son a kiss on the forehead.

"So mom, am I having a little brother or little sister?" Newt asked.

"I don't know honey, I had an ultrasound but sadly the baby's sex isn't clear yet." Mrs. Livingston said.

"Well I hope I have a little brother!" Newt exclaimed, excitedly. Just then, the doorbell rang. Newt's mother slowly got up and opened the door. Mrs. Livingston opened it, revealing Newt's girlfriend, Kiki Kannibal. She had a present in her hands and was smiling at Newt's mom. I didn't understand what was quite wrong with me. When I saw Kiki standing there, I had a weird feeling inside of me. It couldn't be jealousy because I'm married to Jason. Sure, he was in Argentina for his South American tour and was constantly away but I could handle it. I mean, I think I could handle it. Kiki was wearing a dress that was above her knees and she had sexier curves than I did. This girl had a funky style since she was wearing Chuck Taylors to go along with it. Kiki had blond hair with streaks of pink in her hair and was wearing Gothic style make-up.

"Hi Mrs. Livingston!" Kiki greeted, handing Mrs. Livingston the baby's gift.

"Why hello, sweetheart!"Mrs. Livingston said, opening the present, revealing a pair of baby winter clothes that were all white. "Awww, these are just adorable. Thanks, Kiki."

"No problem, Mrs. Livingston." Kiki said, rubbing her huge stomach and giving it a kiss. Kiki went to where Newt and I were sitting.

"Hey baby!" Kiki said, giving Newt a kiss on the lips. As she gave Newt a kiss, I really did felt that weird feeling on my stomach which I couldn't explain.

"Hey babe!" Newt said, giving her a kiss back. Now that weird feeling just got weirder as Newt kissed her back. I thought about this feeling quickly and realized that it was the green-eyed monster or jealousy. Yes, it was official! I was jealous of Newt and his girlfriend but I didn't say anything. This may make me sound like a bad girl but even though I'm married to Jason and pregnant with his child, I've never ever ever ever stopped loving Newt. I suddenly felt really hurt and emotional. Stupid pregnant woman hormones! I turned to Newt, who was now furiously making out with his girlfriend.

"Newt, I have to go to the bathroom." I said.

"Yeah, yeah, sure!" He said, obviously distracted with Kiki to even glance at me. What a jerk! I quickly ran to the outside of the bathroom. I sat on the chair near there and a tear formed in my eye. I tried to hide it by putting a handkerchief over my face. But unfortunately, Mrs. Livingston saw me crying.

"Meena, sweetie, what's wrong?" Mrs. Livingston asked me, obviously concerned. "Come on, you can tell me anything! If you want, we can keep it just between us girls."

"You promise not to tell Newt?" I asked.

"I promise, Newt will never find out. My lips are sealed." Mrs. Livingston reassured.

"Okay, Mrs. Livingston, I may be married to Jason and pregnant with my child but...."I stopped myself and gulped. "....but I have feelings for your son."

"So you love Newt, huh? I knew this was going to happen." Mrs. Livingston said.

"But, why? How?" I asked.

"Because, Newt's father and I were best friends since we were eight years old. We started out as friends, we had our rough patches but we eventually found out we had feelings for each other and got married when we were in our mid-twenties. Then, we had Newt." Mrs. Livingston explained. "It happened to me, the same thing happened to his grandparents and now its going to happen to him, next. You can call that a Livingston family tradition!"

"But what about Kiki?" I asked her.

"Kiki is just a temporary distraction for Newt. One day, he will realize how he really..."Mrs. Livingston cut herself off by feeling a sudden pain in her stomach. She gripped it and started breathing heavily. I was slightly worried and didn't know what's going on. I almost panicked and stopped since I knew panicking never solves anything.

"Mrs. Livingston, are you alright?" I asked.

"I think my water broke!" Mrs. Livingston exclaimed. "I'm in pain! Newt's sibling is ready to come out!"

"Oh my yaks! What should I do?" I asked.

"Call my husband, call Newt!" Mrs. Livingston said. I walked quickly to where Kiki and Newt were. It seemed like those two were mad at each other since they started yelling at each other.

"You're the worst!" Kiki yelled, angrily at Newt.

"Shut up, bitch!" Newt yelled back.

"Guys, listen, Newt's mother..."I was about to inform them but nobody would listen to me.

"I can't believe it, you love her don't you? Don't you?!" Kiki yelled at him.

"Yes, I love her and I will never stop. She is not a fucking whore like you and...."Newt was yelling at Kiki but I interrupted them.

"Newt your mother is in labor!" I screamed at them loud and clear. Newt stared at me and ran to his mother.

"Mom! Mom, are you alright?!" Newt asked her, all panicked.

"Newton Livingston the third, call your father now!" Mrs. Livingston exclaimed, impatiently. Newt quickly obeyed and ran to the backyard. "Meena, help me, I think I forgot how to breathe!"

"Okay, Mrs. Livingston, relax!" I said, trying to calm her down. "Inhale.....exhale! Inhale.....exhale!" Newt then came back with his father.

"Neil, quick, drive me to the hospital!" Mrs. Livingston exclaimed. Newt and his father quickly lifted the heavy woman to the car. Mrs. Livingston was in the backseat, lying down. Newt was in the back seat as well, trying to calm his mother down. I was in the front seat, holding my growing belly. Mr. Livingston drove to the nearest hospital which was only a walking distance. But he decided to drive for the obvious reasons. Kiki tries to catch up by walking to the same hospital. Newt and Mr. Livingston got Mrs. Livingston out of the car and ran her to the emergency room. "I need a wheel chair!"

Newt ran somewhere and quickly got his mom a wheel chair. The woman was holding her stomach, she was in so much pain. Mr. Livingston approached the woman in the counter. "Excuse me, miss, I need a doctor for my wife. She's in labor!" Mr. Livingston exclaimed.

"Right away, sir!" The woman exclaimed, she announced something over the hospital's intercom. "Paging Dr. Chang, there's a woman in labor in the lobby. Paging Dr. Chang, there's a woman in labor in the lobby." Just then, a Chinese-looking female doctor ran out of the hospital's sushi bar, holding a pair of chopsticks and a bunch of spicy tuna rolls. Dr. Chang didn't know what to do with her spicy tuna rolls so without thinking, she quickly handed them to Newt and pushed his mother down the hall to the right where it said 'Delivery room' on front of it in black letters. Newt and I patiently waited in the hospital lobby. Newt was eating the spicy tuna rolls with his hands.

"So, what's new?" Newt asked me, while he was sitting there and eating some spicy tuna rolls. Before I had the chance to answer, Kiki entered the hospital doors and turned to Newt.

"Newton, can I have a word with you?" Kiki asked. Newt sighed and looked at me apologetically and followed Kiki to some deserted spot in the hospital near the bathrooms. The two thought I couldn't hear them but they were wrong, just plain wrong. I heard everything from where I was sitting so I decided to eavesdrop.

"Newt, I'm terribly sorry for what I've said to you earlier back at your house about being a two-timer." Kiki said. "I don't even know what got in my head, I guess I'm nothing but a jealous freak." I heard Newt's giggle from where I was seated.

"It's okay." Newt said. "But, listen, we really need to talk."

"Is everything alright, baby?" Kiki asked him.

"Um, yeah I guess but listen." Newt paused and I'm not really sure since I could only hear them and not see them but I'm guessing he's taking her hand. "I want to break up."

"What? Why?" Kiki asked, her voice sounded kind of teary. I wasn't sure if she was crying but I think she controlled it. "Newt, do you really love her?"

"Well, yeah I do love her." Newt said.

"But Newt, you told me you loved me three months ago when we were getting quite serious and just now you love her? What made you change your mind?" Kiki asked.

"I don't know. Its just that, I want it to be like in the movies that when you see the girl, a bunch of bells go in your head." Newt said. "And the whole time I was going out with you, I didn't hear any bells. But when I'm with her, somehow I feel a lot of bells going on in my head. So, I love her. Kiki, you're beautiful, smart, talented, kind, sweet and sexy. Any guy would be lucky to go with you. But for me its different, I need her, I need her so bad!"

"Why did you lie to me and told me you loved me back then when I almost lost my virginity?" Kiki asked, her voice getting more emotional within the hour. I now felt guilty for making Kiki loose her boyfriend but at the same time, I loved her boyfriend so much. Plus I'm married to another guy and pregnant with his child. I feel so confused right now. "Plus, Newt, she has somebody else in her life."

"I know, and I'll be here for her." Newt said. "But don't worry Kiki, we can still be friends can we?" I heard Kiki heave a big sigh. I could tell she was looking at him straight in the eye.

"Oh well, Newt, I guess this is goodbye. Want to make it official?" Kiki asked. I didn't hear anything so I'm guessing Newt is either hugging her, kissing her cheek or shaking her hand. Kiki then exited the hospital doors and went somewhere. Newt quickly grabbed a seat, beside me.

"So, what were you and Kiki talking about behind there?" I asked, even though I knew everything. He sighed and continued eating the spicy tuna rolls.

"I dumped her." Newt said, matter-of-factly.

"What? Why? Could you please tell me what happened?" I asked him, anxiously as if I didn't know.

"Well, I've just realized now that Kiki Kannibal isn't the right woman for me." Newt said, winking. To my surprise, he held my hand and smiled at me. "Its crazy how things are working out for me. But, I almost lost my virginity to a girl I don't really love. Weird, isn't it?"

"Newton Livingston the third, still a virgin?" I teased. He just blushed and nodded his head.

"Hey, its great to be a virgin! That way, I can't get anybody pregnant." Newt pointed out. I just smiled back at him. Then, there was a short awkward silence between us. Then, Mr. Livingston came out of the delivery room wearing one of those hospital protection suits, gloves and he had his hair in a hairnet like thing. He approached Newt and I and smiled.

"Newt, would you like to meet your little sister?" Mr. Livingston asked his son. I giggled at his shocked expression. He was in that same shocked expression for a few seconds, I nudged him to snap him out.

"I'm a big brother? Already?" Newt asked. "I wanted a little brother!"

"Sorry Newt, you can't always get what you want." I told him. Mr. Livingston led us past the delivery room to where a bunch of private rooms were found. He led us in room 102. As we entered, we saw Mrs. Livingston holding a tiny baby in her arms. The baby had the same blond hair with Newt's and she was so cute! Newt went close to his sister and smiled at her. Mrs. Livingston looked back and fourth at her two kids and had a tear of joy in her eyes.

"Finally, after five years of trying to have another baby, I have one." Mrs. Livingston said.

"Mom, you've been trying to have another kid for five years?" Newt asked, shockingly.

"Yes honey, but sadly it didn't continue and finally I have another one. After this, little girl. You will have no more siblings." Mrs. Livingston said. "So honey, here's your little sister, Anna Newtisha Livingston. But we're going to call her Anna." I smiled at little Anna. "Would you like to hold her?"

"Sure." Newt said, getting the little baby from his mother. He looked at the baby and gently caressed her cheeks and started whispering. "Hi Anna, this is Newt, your big brother. Take note, any guy who tries to ask you out fourteen years from now has to go through me first." I laughed at him.

"She's only thirty minutes old and you're already the overprotective brother?" I asked, lightly laughing. I turned to Mrs. Livingston. "Mrs. Livingston, can I hold her?"

"Sure." Mrs. Livingston said. Newt gave me his little sister and I started staring at her and gently whispering.

"Anna, listen to me. If your brother doesn't want you dating until you're nineteen. Listen to him, he's the guy to take advise from." I said. I then gently gave Anna back to Mrs. Livingston. I grabbed Newt by the arm and led him outside. "Come on Newt, lets go home."

"Right with you, Meena!" He said. We then went outside of the hospital and we went back to Newt's house for a little party. Although the party was just him and I but we had a lot of fun even if it was just the two of us. The whole time we were there, eating pizza and having a comedy movie marathon, we were laughing along with one of the most ridiculous movies being made. As we were watching, I've noticed Newt is unusually nicer to me than usual. I was quite suspicious of him throughout the whole night. Even though I was suspicious but I also had fun. Tonight was a fun night for both of us. Without thinking, I slept in the guess room that night to keep Newt company since his parents were still at the hospital. I borrowed some clothes from Mrs. Livingston and I had a great time. I felt slightly guilty for staying at Newt's house while I was married to Jason. But in the end, I really didn't care.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Okay, so Newt loves somebody else other than Kiki. Who is it? Keep reading for more details about Newt's feelings for the mystery girl.
