8 MONTHS LATER

Kevin, I am gonna go see mom. I need to see how she is doing and than I am going to take her to the hospital for her monthly appointment. Lucy said in a sweet but nervous tone.

Ok honey, be careful. Don't do anything that could over stress you.

Lucy smiled and gave him a quick kiss , went out the back door, and got in the car.

She was so nervous. The doctor told her that her mom was making incredible progress and that he would most likely be able to predict if she would live the next appointment, which was today.

As Lucy stopped at the red light she remembered the night it all happened.

FLASHBACK

I don't know how to decide who goes first so lets go by age. I guess that means I have to go first. Eric said in a some what somber tone.

Well my news is actually really good. A couple of years ago I made a secret bank account where I saved some money. I recently deposited some money and realized that I had enough money to do what I wanted to do. I have always wanted to buy our house because it has so many memories and I want to live in it forever with my family. I bought the house yesterday. Eric smiled and showed the deed to the house. Everyone cried and smiled.

Well I guess that means I am next, I hate to ruin the mood but I guess it's better to do it now. Annie said in monotone.

I went to the doctor yesterday for my yearly physical. She umm well I guess there is no easy way to say this but I have stage 2 breast cancer. Annie cried. Everyone started to cry with her.

The doctor says that people generally make a come back after stage 2. You can live, and I am going to with the love and support of my family and friends. Everyone made a pact to help and support her.

Well I guess I have to go next. Sarah and I are moving back to Glenoak. There is a shortage of doctors and we are going to come help. Matt exclaimed, hoping to lighten the mood a little bit.

Well I guess it's me. My news is kinda boring but Carlos has been promoted and his now the president of his company. Mary said in the happiest tone she could get out. Everyone congratulated Mary and Carlos.

So now it's me! Well umm. Lucy cried patting her eyes. She was still being held by her mom. She was taking the news about her mom really hard but she knew her news would make her mom much happier.

Well I went to the doctor the other day and at first he told me that I couldn't have kids. Kevin, that's why I was ignoring you because I thought you would be mad. So I took a pregnancy test right when I was about to tell Kevin the truth just to make sure. It said positive. So I was confused. I went straight to the doctor and he told me that they had a mix up at the hospital and I was actually pregnant! Lucy cried with happiness. Kevin came up to her and gave her a huge hug and kiss and Annie and Eric and the whole family were so happy for her. They new she had wanted this for a long time.

Well now it's me! Cecillia and I set the date. We are getting married in September! Simon said with a happy face. Everyone congratulated him and they were all excited!

Well now it's me. Peter and I broke up. I got bored after three years. We decided that we need to bet with other people but this doesn't mean that we are over. We might date again in the future. Ruthie said in a suprisingly happy tone. Lucy gave her dating advice and went on with her schpiel about broken relationships. Lucy was the queen of love.

Well I guess it's me now. I now have my first girlfriend and so does Sam. We will invite them over for dinner because we know you will want us to. David said with a bright red face from embarassment.

So now you know half of our news. The other half is that we no longer want to share a room because we feel that we need to express ourself as a unique person and not as a twin. Sam said in a very adult way.

Well we will work something out for that. So now we know everyones news, I guess that this family meeting is adjourned so lets eat. I guess that we can ask eachother questions too Eric said.
