Part Four

This is it!

Months later Gloria and Edith were in the kitchen, Edith was washing some dishes and Gloria had just finished eating a sandwich. "Gee, ma what kind of sandwich was in that lunch pail? It was really good." Edith looked over at her daughter looking surprised and a bit worried, "It was your father's lunch." she said sounding a bit worried. "

"Oh." Gloria said in the same tone as her mother.

"Don't worry Gloria, we just won't tell him."

Gloria gasped dramatically, "Ma, your gonna keep something from daddy?"

"Yeah, I guess I am." she said smiling.

"Hey Edith, where are yous!" Archie called from the living room, "In the kitchen Archie!" Edith yelled back.

"Oh, ma the baby's kicking." Gloria announced happily.

"Really?" Edith asked happily.

"Yeah look, put your hand here."

Gloria placed Edith's hand over her large belly so she could feel the baby kick. And when the baby did kick Edith laughed a bit as did Gloria. Soon the scene was seen by Archie who had just walked into the kitchen. When he saw them he raised an eyebrow for awhile.

"Hey Edith, it's a baby inside of her not the future."

The two women laughed, "Daddy, the baby's kicking." Gloria informed her father. "Oh?"

"Yeah, put your hand right next to ma's." Gloria instructed "I don't know little goil I mean…" but before Archie could come up with an excuse Gloria roughly grabbed his hand and placed it next to Edith's.

Soon the baby gave a large kick causing Edith and Archie to look at each other and then over at Gloria with amazement covering their face.

"Jeeze that one was a kick like one of them Japs with their whadaya call karate." Archie stated taking his hand away from Gloria's stomach as did Edith.

"Oh, boy did that take me back." Edith said smiling.

"What do you mean ma?"

"Oh, just how it reminded me about when I was gonna have you. Remember Archie?"

"If I say 'yes' your still gonna tell the damn story aint ya?" Archie asked a bit upset as he took a seat.

"Daddy, come on I wanna hear about it." Gloria told him then turned her attention to Edith, "Go on ma."

"Well, I was just rememberin' how ya was always kicking when yous was inside me." Edith said taking a seat in front of Archie but next to Gloria, "I remember when ya would start your kicking at night. Remember Archie?" Archie was about to respond when Edith continued her story.

"Well we'd be in bed, reading or talkin' when ya would start kicking. At the beginning we didn't know wha to do, but then Archie figured something out." she said smiling over at Archie and he smiled a very small smile but it was more of a smirk.

"What?" Gloria asked looking at her parents

"Well your father would place his hand on my stomach where you were, then he'd lean his head against it sometimes and he'd start singing."

"Aw really daddy?"

"Well I had too, after alls you were and still are my little baby." Archie began, "Plus your mother was always going over the edge wonderin' what and why yous was kicking at that hour of the night."

"Oh well only at the beginning," Edith explained, "Then when Archie started singing, we always knew wha to do. Sometimes I even sang too."

"Yeah, and be glad I stopped her when I did little goil, or else ya might'a hung yourself the umbiplical cord." Archie stated pointing at Gloria, which earned him a hit on the arm.

"Ow! Do ya see wha your daughter is doing to me here!" Archie asked Edith upset.

"Ow." Gloria groaned causing her parents to look at her.

"Is the baby kicking again?" Edith asked

"Boy looks like I got a little someone defending me huh?" Archie asked jokingly.

"Um no the baby didn't kick, I just had a contraction." Gloria informed smiling away.

"Oh that's nice." Edith said not really sure what was happening, while getting a annoyed look from Archie. "Edith, that aint nice. That means the baby's coming!"

"Oooh!" Edith said jumping up from her chair right after Archie, the two of them were already panicking. And Gloria could tell.

"Um ma why don't you go call Michael and then the hospital and daddy you go next door and get my bags." Gloria instructed.

"Alright where's yours bag?"

"In the house."

"Well I know that, but where in the house?" Archie asked trying not to get upset.

"Um, it's either in our bedroom or in our closet."

"Ok.."he said heading out the door.

"Or in the hallway closet…"

"Ah Jeeze." he groaned, "Ya don't know where it is do yous?"

"I'm sorry daddy!" Gloria said on the verge of tears.

"Doing worry little goil, I'll find it yous just sit here and take it easy…"

Gloria smiled, "Ok daddy. Now get going!" she ordered scaring Archie as he quickly headed out the door
