Chapter 4 Four months and a Birth

Two Months After that

Jonathan looked at his wife. He just watched her breath as she slept. Her now big, seven standard months pregnant belly rising slowly up and down. He saw the outline of a kicking foot come out of her thin nightgown. His hand crawled to the spot and rested on the spot. Andrea woke. She smiled and put her hand on his.

"I love you", said Jonathan as he kissed her forehead.

"I love you, too", said Andrea.

His hand went around her and their lips touched. They stayed like that for a long time.

" I have to go", she said finally.

"So, do I", he said in response.

They moved slowly out of bed and got ready for the day's events.

Two months later

Finally, the month they had been waiting for had come. The senate had had a session earlier the day. Andrea was now very big and she had the glow of an expectant mother. Jonathan never failed to see this.

" How was the session?" Jonathan asked in a tone that suggested he already knew the answer.

" Okay", said Andrea in a tone that suggested that she was lying. But, what the tone also suggested is that Jonathan should not dispute this.

"You look beautiful, Andrea", said Jonathan in a soft tone.

" No, I am not I look like a balloon", said Andrea. " I am getting too big when will this thing come out"

" Soon, be patient"

She felt the baby give a strong kick and then a sharp pain. "Jonathan, I think it will be sooner than we think," Andrea said with a painful smile on her face.

"Now!" he said as they started in a mad rush to the medical wing.

------------------------------------

"Okay Andrea push," the doctor said for what seemed the millionth time.

" I am, I am," said Andrea painfully. She was trying very hard not to break the arm of the man who had done this to her.

"Andrea," said the doctor. "All this baby needs is two good pushes and its out,"

"Okay," she said as the most painful contraction came. She pushed with all her might and when it was over she yelled to Jonathan, " You will never touch me again,"

Then, after second big push she heard a cry and, "It's a boy"

Then, after nine months of pregnancy, sixteen hours of labor and a little cleaning they laid the baby in her arms.

" What should we call him?" she said in a rough voice.

"How about after your father", he said.

" Han Solo", she said.

" Yes, that sounds right", she asked.

"Yeah", he said.

Then they said together " Welcome to the world, Han Solo".

The baby just looked at looked at them.
