Patricia's POV

I woke up in a strange bed. I could hear voices from outside the door. I realised that it was the hospital. Just then, Eddie comes in.

"Hey… how long was I out?" I asked as soon as he looked at me.

"Oh! Yacker! Um… about 4 hours or so…" he said, smiling big.

"And how is it that you're smiling? …" I yawned. He didn't reply – just kept smiling as wide as earth.

"Hello?" I snapped, irritated.

"Oh, sorry… but…" he began.

"BUT WHAT?" I screamed.

"Geez, okay, okay. Ready? … The babies are alive!" he exclaimed, all excited.

"Wha…" I gasped. I felt my nose sting, and soon I was sobbing quietly.

"Yacker? Are you okay? Why're you crying?" he asked, sitting beside me and wrapping his arm around me.

"…"

"Patricia? Please say something?" he begged, looking so confused. "Aren't you happy? Glad?"

Enough was enough.

"NO! I'M NOT EXCITED OR HAPPY OR GLAD THAT IT'S ALIVE, BECAUSE THE LAST TIME I WAS PREGNANT, YOU FLIPP'N LEFT ME!" I broke down.

"Patricia, I swear, it'll never happen again – I was so confused and scared at the time!" he tried to fight back.

"WELL HOW THE HELL DO YOU THINK I FELT? I WAS THE ONE CARRING IT!" I screamed… again…

"I'm so-… wait, why are you using singular form?" he asked.

"Because it's one."

"Oh, so you didn't know we were having twins?" he questioned, raising an eyebrow.

"Wait, what the hell?" I asked, looking at him. He laughed.

"Yea! We're having twins!" he 'squealed', hugging me.

"No… no… no… no… no… no… no… no…" I whispered, hugging my knees, shrugging Eddie off.

"No? Why?" he asked. I didn't answer.

"I didn't even want one. Now there's two?" I finally said, after a good 10 minutes of silence. "Call my doctor, please?"

"Sure," he said, walking out the door.

.

"Patricia? I'm assuming you've heard the good news?" she said cheerfully. I glared at her.

"You didn't do your job properly," I said, still glaring.

"Ah, it seems I had given you the wrong medicine to take," she said, looking down at her clipboard.

"So I'm stuck with 'em?" I asked, praying she'd say I could still have an abortion.

"Yup. It's too late now to have an abortion, dear," she said, looking up at me again.

"Great," I muttered under my breath.

"I'll leave you then?" she asked.

"When can I come for an ultrasound?" I asked out of curiosity.

"Um… next week Tuesday, perhaps?" she asked.

"Kay."

.

The 'next week Tuesday'

I was waiting in the waiting area with Eddie.

"Patricia Williamson-Miller?" a voice called. Eddie and I stood up and headed to Kareen's office.

"Ah, Patricia and Eddie… how are you both doing?" she asked cheerfully.

"Great thanks," Eddie replied with enthusiasm. I didn't answer.

"So, ready to see your little ones?" she asked, tapping the bed.

"I suppose," I replied, sighing and walking towards the bed. "Shit, that's cold!" I screamed.

"Patricia, swearing is not recommended when you are pregnant, since the babies can hear you now," she said, laughing.

"Whatever…" I muttered under my breath. She picked up the scanner and started moving it up and down .

"Um… Patricia?" she started…
