9 Months Later
Andy and Lu walked out of the cafeteria and towards the RWHC lobby after having lunch together. Both of the women were wearing their white coats, but Andy's was significantly bigger than Lu's. She was nine months pregnant, and due any day. Lu had urged her to stay home and off her feet, but Andy insisted that she would not, saying her patients needed her.
Andy was giving Lu her opinion on a patient when she suddenly grabbed her stomach in pain. A pool of liquid formed at her feet. Her water had broken.
"The babies are coming Lu," Andy told her friend as she fell on the floor.
Lu yelled into the ER, "I need a gurney here, I have a woman in labor with twins."
Lu, Peter, and Lana pushed Andy's gurney into a nearby room, and helped her onto the bed. Lu gave her an epidural, which helped to subside Andy's pain. Lu checked her out, and told Andy that she was 8 centimeters dilated and almost ready to start pushing.
Lana wiped the sweat off of Andy's brow as Andy picked up the phone to call her house. "Lizzy? It's mommy."
"Hi mom," her 14 year-old daughter answered.
"Lizzy, I need you and Jesse to come down to the hospital okay?" Andy asked her daughter.
"Sure mom, why?" Lizzy questioned, mumbling a little from the food in her mouth.
"I'm having the babies soon Lizzy, I need you and Jesse here with me, okay?" Andy put her hand over the phone for a few seconds as she winced through a contraction.
"Of course mom, we'll be right there. Are you okay? Do you need anything?" Lizzy asked worriedly.
"Just please bring me an overnight bag with some clothes in it for me and the babies, and the two car seats we bought, okay?" Andy answered.
"Sure, we'll be there in 15 minutes, okay? I love you mommy," Lizzy said.
"I love you too baby," Andy said, before hanging up the phone.
