"So how's she doing Jamie?" Oscar asked his exhausted son. Jamie looked up at his father blearily. He pushed himself away from the wall to talk to his dad.
"Long labour. She's asleep now. Doctor Ula said we should be able to take the triplets home in 3 - 4 days. They want to keep them there for a few extra days to make sure they are alright." Jamie said with a sigh.
"What's wrong Jamie? Are you regretting having the triplets?" Oscar asked frowning.
"No. Of course not. I'm just regretting my decision to stay with her while she gave birth." Jamie said holding his bandaged hands up to his father.
"What happened?" Oscar asked flabbergasted as he inspected his son's hands.
"During contractions she squeezed my hands. Doctor Bmak said he wants to look at them because he thinks there is a good possibility that I have a couple of broken bones." Jamie said wincing with pain.
"She was that strong?" Oscar said amused.
"Yeh. Doctor Bmak said he doesn't think she was squeezing at full strength either because he's seen what she can do when she does squeeze at full strength." Jamie replied.
"All that for a little bit of pain." Oscar said shaking his head.
"A LITTLE bit of pain?!? You do not know what it is like to give birth Uncle Oscar! It is one of the most painful experiences I have EVER been through and you say it is only a LITTLE bit of pain." An irate Kally exclaimed from behind them. Jamie and Oscar jumped as they spotted her in a wheelchair behind them.
"Ah. Kally. So how are you feeling dear?" Oscar asked ignoring her outburst.
"Like shit." She growled crossly.
"Kally." Jamie admonished lightly.
"What? It's true. At least I won't be carrying those three in this heat any longer." Kally said temper cooling slowly.
"So. When do I get to meet the little ones?" Oscar said with amusement.
"When I have to feed them. Which will be soon. So wait around till then." Kally wheeled herself back into her room and closed the door.
"Was mother like this when she had Rasaal and I dad?" Jamie asked his father exasperated.
"Jamie. It's probably the hormones. You've got to cut her a little slack Jamie. Kally will probably have had three times the amount of hormones running through her body due to the fact that she's had twins. The hormones make people do funny things - Kally's will be back to normal soon son. Just wait and see." Oscar said quietly watching his son's face.
"I'm just worried about her. With me almost back to normal hopefully I can help take the load off her shoulders." Jamie said softly.
"Yes. She's carried a big burden with you being out of commission when's she really needed your help. Thank God for your friends I'll say," Oscar said with a smile.
"I'm really grateful for them helping us. I'm gonna have to make it up to them soon." Jamie said smiling also. "I can't wait to introduce them to our bundles of joy. You too. They are absolutely beautiful."
"So they are girls?" Oscar asked interested.
"I'm not saying if they are girl's or if they are boy's. You'll just have to wait and see." Jamie said loving the resigned look flash across his father's face. "Do you know when the other's are arriving?"
"Doc said he'd come with the team around about 5." Oscar replied moving towards the comfortable looking seats.
"Hmmm. Around about 1 hour and 45 minutes then." Jamie said peering at his watching as he sat next to his father.
"Mmmm." Oscar replied. Both sat in comfortable silence.
~*~*~*~
"Kally. What's wrong?" Jamie asked concerned for his pregnant girlfriend. She started as she heard his voice and tried to hide her tears.
"N-n-nothing Jamie. Nothing's wrong." Kally said turning a smiling face towards him. He noticed the tear stained face.
"Kally. You've been crying. What is wrong?" Jamie asked gently.
"Nothing Jamie." Kally replied quietly.
"Kally. Something is wrong or otherwise you wouldn't be hiding in here crying. Please tell me. I don't like to see you unhappy. It's not good for you or the babies." Jamie said tenderly. Slowly he moved towards her and pulled her into a warm hug. She relaxed into his embrace.
"God Jamie. I feel like shit. My backaches, my breasts ache, my feet hurt like hell. I get headaches constantly. I need to go to the toilet about every 5 minutes or so. I feel enormous. When people see me they give me these patronising or disgusted looks. Then when I walk past them they talk about me behind their back. I feel so stupid." Kally said unhappily.
"Don't Kally. Are you really surprised you feel that way? Doctor Ula said that would happen as the trio begin to get bigger. But the emotional problems? There is no need to worry. I think you look beautiful - you've got a certain glow about you - when you're happy - that nothing can rival." Jamie said lovingly.
"Really?" Kally asked.
"Really." Jamie said kissing her lightly.
~*~*~*~
Jamie remembered that scene clearly - she'd only been 6 months pregnant then. That had only been only the beginning of the emotional and health problems that were to come.
~*~*~*~
"If have to ride in that?!?" Kally exclaimed loudly.
"Yes Miss Kalira. You must. It is what is best for you and the triplets. Your leg is inhibiting your movements. Doctor Bmak agrees with me that it is for the best - and he also told me to tell you that if you do not you will most probably ruin your leg for life." Young Doctor Ula said cheerily.
'She certainly knows how to handle Kally.' Jamie thought to himself as he watched the impassive face of his heavily pregnant girlfriend.
"Meaning?" Kally asked eyes narrowed in thought.
"You may never be able to walk on it again - you will either have a cane in the best case scenario and in the worst you will have to use a wheelchair for life." Doctor Ula said firmly, her soft brown eyes bored into Kally's.
"So what your basically telling me is I will be an invalid for 1 to 1 and ½ months if I use the wheelchair now and if I don't use it I will be an invalid after my pregnancy for the rest my life. Is this correct." Kally asked glaring at the blonde doctor.
"Yes. That is correct Miss Kalira. I'm sorry. I have three other doctors who recommend that you do this. Doctor Bmak made sure to ask their advice after he took the x-rays. All are experts that I think you know. Doctor Gallagar, Doctor Maelgwaryn and Doctor Purran?" Doctor Ula asked amused.
"Mmmm." An irate Kally thought.
"So. Are you going to do this Kally?" Jamie asked with trepidation.
"Mmmm. May as well. I'm not doing it for you I'm doing it for the trio and Jamie. Understand." Kally demanded.
"Yes Miss Kalira." Doctor Ula gave Jamie a wink as Kally turned around.
~*~*~*~
"Jamie. Mr Hermernos. You wanted to see the triplets." Doctor Ula said with amusement.
Both jumped at the sound of her voice and looked at her confused.
"The triplets?" Doctor Ula reminded them.
"Oh. Right." Oscar said leaping off his seat and rushing into Kally's room Jamie hot on his heels.
Kally had just finished feeding them. In her arms she cuddled one of the rugged children. Jamie picked up another one. Oscar looked into the last crib and a small red face looked up at him. He picked up the infant and cuddled the baby close.
"Your holding Nallan, Jamie's holding Markalan, and I'm holing Damalas." Kally said eyes shining happily.
"Kally. You look so much happier. I'm glad to know that you feel better." Oscar said softly looking at the glowing girl. "You look positively radiant."
