Begging

Rubbing her stomach slowly, Theresa sighs in rejection. "God, why are you taking away my babies again? Haven't I suffered enough? Please, God, save these babies...let me find some way to get on with my life.."

(Meanwhile, in the corridor)

"Gwen, honey, please sit down."

"Sit down? What do you think I am, crazy, Ethan? I can't sit down knowing that Theresa may or may not loose one of our babies! Why is God punishing me, Ethan? This is not fair!"

Pulling away from Ethan's arms, Gwen makes her way to Theresa's room.

"Theresa, you need to listen to me."

"Gwen, please, not now."

"Look, Theresa, whether you like it or not, these are my babies. This decision should be made by me."

"They may be yours, Gwen, but it's MY body that's carrying them!"

"Theresa, I'm begging you. Please have this procedure. I would rather risk losing one baby than loosing both my children."

"Gwen, I am not going to abort one baby. That is not right. I have to give both these babies a chance, somehow."

Getting on her knees, Gwen pours her heart out to Theresa. "Theresa, look, I'm on my knees here. I'm begging you to please, PLEASE let one of my babies live. I can't handle losing another baby, Theresa, I just can't!"

Feeling anger build up inside her, Theresa vents out, "Losing another baby? What about me, Gwen?! You TOOK my child away from me! You and your mother schemed to get Little Ethan away from me. Now you want me to just go through this procedure and loose one baby? Absolutely not!" Theresa breathes as she shifts her position in the hospital bed.

"Theresa, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you upset, that's the last thing you need right now. I'll leave, just please, think carefully about this."

Once Gwen leaves Theresa's room, she rubs her belly again. "God, what am I going to do? These babies mean everything to me. I need them in order to get my son back. I can't loose them...God, please tell me what to do."

Outside Theresa's hospital room, Gwen runs into Ethan's arms. "God, Ethan, what are we going to do? What if she won't have this procedure?"

Hugging his wife close, Ethan thinks to himself. "Theresa, what are you doing now..."
