A Tale of 8 Kinkirks

Chapter 2

"Luce. you're going to be a mom!" Matt said so loudly and happily he almost yelled. Lucy ran up to him and hugged him. "Congratulations, Luce!" he said, hugging her. "Would you like to know your due date?" "Yes! Of course!" Lucy answered. "Well, you're already about three weeks along," Matt told her, "and your due date is February 24." "That's wonderful!" Lucy replied, looking at her watch. "Oh- Kevin should be out of surgery soon, so I've got to go. Don't tell anyone!" "Luce, you know I won't," Matt promised. "I know. bye. and thank you so much!" Lucy said as she ran down the hall.

Lucy went back to the front desk. "Could you tell me if Kevin Kinkurk is out of surgery yet?" she asked the same receptionist she had talked to before. "Yes, he has been out for about five minutes. He is in Room 315. He may still be groggy, though. Let him rest. Oh- if you don't mind me asking, are you going to be a mother?" the receptionist asked. "Yes! I am!" Lucy answered, smiling.
