Chapter 34 – Baby News Part 1 - Ludwig:

(Ludwig's POV)

I was just about to enjoy my book, one of N.R.'s finest, when the phone rang. I contemplated letting it ring, but I wasn't quite satisfied with how the answering machine sounded. So, I stood up and reached for the phone, answering it.

-Hello, you've reached the Beilschmidt-Vargas residence. You're speaking with Ludwig Beilschmidt. How may I be of assistance?

-Great heavens, Ludwig! I've been trying to reach your Cell Phone for ages! It was Elizaveta, my sister-in-law. There was a perfectly good reason that she had been unable to reach my cell; it was currently getting an upgrade. Ever since you called Gil and he didn't pick up, I've been trying to call you back!

-Oh, I only called to let him know that I would be unavailable on the phone this week. Then, out of curiosity, I asked. Why didn't he pick up his phone? Gilbert normally, always answered his phone when I or anyone else called him.

-Ludwig, I broke your brother. If I'd been standing straight before, I was standing even straighter now.

-Why? What did you do?

-Ludwig, you're going to become an uncle.


Author's notes:

Because I realize that my chapters can become really, really long, I decided to cut this one up. Plus, it just seemed appropriate.
