ps. normal disclaimers; i dont own them, except the kids who are all mine, except alex who is there's too ;0( lol.


"Chloe, get here now!"

"Alex, I can't find my shoes." I turn round and hold out the offending shoes.

"They're here Chloe, hurry up." She races down the stairs and shoves her feet into the shoes before slipping into a coat and pulling Jake off the Playstation.

"Aww Alex, I don't wanna go!" He scrunches his face into a frown and bites his lip, a sign he's not happy.

"Jakey, normally I would say you can stay here but this is important. And if we don't move quickly we'll miss the train and have to walk all the way." At that Jake pulls on his trainers and Keira runs out of the kitchen. Assembled I smooth down Chloe's hair, wipe chocolate from Jake's mouth and remove a price sticker from Keira's t-shirt.

"Right, out!" I shove my brother and sisters out the door and check I have my keys and wallet before slamming the door and catching up with my manic siblings. At 5 the twins were constantly hyper and Keira had a tendency to giggle when being told off by anyone, especially dad who usually melts the minute she smiles at him. Chloe was nearly 8 and a complete bossy madam, taking control of her younger brother and sister which surprising ease seeing as they don't particularly like being controlled in any way.

As they charge down the street laughing I can't help but smile at them. After the worries about their prematurity, Keira and Jake were perfect and Chloe actually took to being the middle child really well. That's probably because when they cried, she cried so she got just as much attention as them.

"KK, be careful." I yell after Keira, using the nickname she made up after working out her first and last names had the same letter. Jake tried to make us call him JK but it never worked, he was a Jake from the second he was born.

Directing them into the El station I buy 4 tickets and drag them all onto the train just as its leaving. I get a few looks, especially after Chloe has a loud conversation with the woman next to her about her belly button. Jake clings to my leg the whole journey and Keira sings 'Twinkle Twinkle little star'. I think everyone is glad when I push them out the door and down the stairs to the hospital. Keira carries on singing and Chloe joins in, and Jake gets so attached to my leg I just scoop him up and carry him so I don't trip over him.

"Hi Alex." Carter calls, smiling. "How is everything?"

"Hiya, it's tough but not too bad." I smile back.

"Good, you going upstairs?"

"Yeah."

"Give them my love."

I nod and enter the lift. We travel 3 floors up and arrive at the right ward.

"Kovac." I say when the receptionist asks for the name.

"Room 206." I smile and head off, with Chloe and Keira traipsing behind still singing. i find the room quickly and knock on the door, then enter.

"Hey Mom, how are you?" I ask, spotting her sitting in the chair.

"Oh honey, you're here. Everything's okay. Your dad is out of surgery and Tai is nearly finished. Apparently the transplant went amazingly, everything was fine." Her face is tired but relieved.

"That's good." The girls bundle onto mom and she hugs them, chatting away about my parenting skill. I keep hold of Jake who has started singing, but I don't mind as long as he isn't crying.

Tai is my youngest brother and he was very ill. He was born with only one kidney and when he was about 3 months he got a virus that destroyed about 2/3 of that kidney.The day after Tai's 2nd birthday the doctors told us he needed to find a donor or he'd die. Tests were done on all us kids as well as mom and dad and luckily we found a match in dad. Last night they took a kidney out of dad, and transplanted it into Tai. Apparently they can both live healthy lives with one kidney which is good news. Now I can't wait to see them both, especially since this morning the letter came through.

So now I'm a Kovac too.


Review!
